Arc 3 Chapter 3.10 ( Boundary Between Virtual and Reality ) Ending

Late in the morning , where the sun has completely risen to the sky with its brilliance shown . In the middle of the street where a crowd of people walked to and fro doing their own busenisess . A pair of eye-catching men could be seen strolling around holding cones of ice creams . One with vanilla flavor , the other one with choco flavor .

Both men are tall and handsome , each exuded different kinds of aura . One being a tall alpha with top notch leadership aura that could lead everyone with his own hands , the other having peculiar chilly aura , freezing a normal person's mentality wherever he passes by ,  he may looked harmless and gentle yet who knows? That man could be highly dangerous as well , hidden behind his seemingly harmless smile , could be a hipocrite sociopath with a twisted mind .

But of course , he was already cured by the pill called love .

However , his danger as a former sociopath couldn't be forgotten . He may be burning with extreme chilly obsessive thoughts running across his mind because of the flirtatious smiles his husband kept on recieving from the passing by cute girls on the side street .

The blue haired , red eyed man suddenly leaned his back on the man and lifted his jaws to whisper unto his husband's ears .

" Husband , my waist hurts . " His voice has a trace of grievances on it . However , one could easily overlook the hint of command and threat on it.

- My waist hurts , where's your eyes? Massage my waist , how dare you toss me mercilessly on the bed when your eyes went astray to the other side? Are you kidding me? Should i dig out your eyes? Massage me!!! -

Jiro's mouth curved up and wrapped his arms around the blue haired man . " Retract your pouty mouth or I'll just do you at the alley . " Jiro whispered to his ear in a deep voice .

The two went to buy street foods at the side . Then they were suddenly stopped by a pair of couple . They asked them to record them for a little bit .

Zone didn't say anything and just watched as his husband were made unto a phone holder while recording the couple who are dancing some trendy dance challenges these days .

His mouth suddenly curved up and suddenly joined the couple . The couple was surprised for a while then suddenly turned excited as they danced in sync .

While the couple were dancing some footworks , he suddenly flipped over their bodies and landed in a cool way before blending with their moves , immitating them effortlessly .

" That was cool! " The brown haired girl shouted in excitement and high-fived with Zone .

The young man also high-fived with Zone in appreciation . Once the two of them walked away , he was suddenly hugged by Jiro and was kissed furiously .

Zone smiled foolishly and even recieved it with wide arms open .

Jiro moved away and stared intensely at Zone's body . Then leaned forward to whisper . " Get ready tonight "

Zone immediately punched Jiro's chest with flushed face . " Shameless . "

Jiro immediately put on an innocent face . " What's wrong with me coveting my partner's body? "

Zone hurrumped and kicked Jiro's buttocks before walking forward with a red face. 

Zone paused and frowned , staring forward before suddenly moving and pulled Jiro aside the street . A few seconds later , gun shots started resonating through out the whole street . The passing by people started screaming in fright and run away while some unfortunate people were killed by the stray bullets .

" Jiro , go away and hide . "

Jiro immediately frowned . " Why would i hide? You should be the one who should hide ."

Zone glared at Jiro . " What do you think of me? Weak? Don't forget Jiro that I'm stronger than you right now . As a human , you are limited to the laws of this world . "

Jiro grumbled in annoyance but then obediently hid behind the street food desk .

" What is happening outside? " Asked Jiro .

Zone stared as his red eyes suddenly glowed in faint light . " Terrorist Attack ."

When Jiro heard Zone's words , he subconsciously reacted by cursing . He and his wife had just reunited and dated to spend time together , yet these terrorists chose this day to interrupt their lovey dovey moments? Jiro is starting to get irritated by these irksome stupid people .

If only he could unlock his locked stats , he could have obliterated their stupid brains with just a single flick . Unfortunately , doing that will only let him recieve a curse(deduction points ) from the world consciousness .

Zone was also troubled , he had been cultivating day and night . Absorbing mana despite his idle actions , unfortunately . He couldn't show his true form because of the watcher .

Both Jiro and Zone were in dilemma because of the two world consciousness that guarded the world they stayed at .

" How about we retreat? " jiro asked and looked out from under the desk .

Zone stopped Zone and pushed his head down back under . " We're unfortunately surrounded . Jiro , just what have you done? It seems that they were targeting you . "

" Huh? " A confused look surfaced upon Jiro's face and looked up again but was once again pushed down by a powerful claw .

Jiro sighed then suddenly remembered one thing.  He cursed and washed his face with an imaginary water with his hands .

" I forgot because of excitement that I'm a big shot in this world . "

Zone dully glared at Jiro's face . " Haha , my husband is indeed both idiotic and cute . " sarcastically remarked .

Jiro pouted , " I forgot to bring guards . "

Then he continued . " I just wanted to spend time with you alone you know . Without any peering eyes . I was so excited and didn't even prepare any security measures . "

His phone suddenly ring . Jiro pulled it down and answered the call . " What? "

Doze's voice resonated from the speaker . " This is bad boss , a group of assassins attacked the city under the guise of terrorist attack to kill you . "

" Immediately send me my men here ".

" ... Boss , it's over . " Doze weakly said .

Jiro frowned . " What's over? "

" The Watcher noticed the space fluctuation and sent several assassins to kill the both of you . " Uno's voice suddenly echoed in the speaker .

Zone stiffened and looked incredulously at the phone in Jiro's hands .

" What kind of assassins? " He asked .

Uno sighed . " They are naturally from the world of fantasy . Zone , we violated their law . So the watcher sent its men to obliterate your existence . "

Zone frowned in disgust . " That stupid Watcher is simply unreasonable . Why would he immediately obliterate me when i only jump across the boundary to meet my master . "

Uno massaged his temples as he answered . " There's a lot of reasons behind the law . There's just a lot of history about the characters going beyond the limit of their wisdom . Simply put , a character that had broken the fourth wall must be obliterated due to their dangerous nature . "

" They could threathen the Watcher's existence . Because the Watcher had also been a character before . "

" Histories of the characters going beyond their supposed limit happened a lot of times . And every centuries , a Watcher would be replaced by a new Watcher . "

" The Watcher dispatched his men to kill you while you're still weak and under the surveillance of the reality's world consciousness . "

Zone's brows raised . " Then what's the connection why they also want to kill Jiro ? "

Doze shuddered . " Well ... "

Jiro closed his eyes and clenched his fist .

" Watchers have an animosity towards Realm Agents for some unknown reasons. The Watcher is the negative side of the real world . In human condition , The Watcher could be said to be the Reality's second personality . "

Zone frowned . " You mean ... Reality and Watcher are both the same person? "

Uno looked at the stuttering Doze then snatched the phone . " It could be said like that , but they were more like twins . Although , a watcher could be easily replaced . A watcher's personality would immediately change due to the powers bestowed by the reality to them . The power bestowed to them were the negative or corrupted energies of the world consciousness's power"

" As the bearer of the reality's corrupted power , a Watcher could be said to be their made up twin or second personality . As the corrupted power has a sentient that parasites' the watcher's body corrupting their mind making them succumb to negativity . "

Zone frowned , his head started throbbing . The word negativity seems to have triggered something within him but he couldn't seem to have the capability to let it out .

Intense pain washed over his head and soul . Zone trembled and knelt on the ground weakly . Zone covered his face , and didn't noticed that his crimson eyes turned deep black in a fleeting moment without the white's appearance . Like a demonic eye , black without any trace of pureness .

Filled with negativity , violence and insanity .

He resembled a demon just then but then immediately disappeared as if it never happened . Doze and Jiro might not have noticed it , but Uno who was familiar with the curse could feel it .

The dark energy that corrupted his master's soul .

It is so terrible .

Uno's heart quenched in pain . He immediately closed the invisible monitor and handed the phone back to Doze .

It seems that they had to leave this place immediately . He was sorry for his master and his spouse for being deprived of their time together .

But he had no power to protect his master , they could only retreat and unseal his master's power .

By then , they could take revenge against those people who had wronged his master . Who made his lifetimes miserable and messy than hell and underworld ruled by Hades .

" I don't care anymore . " Zone muttered. 

Several back clothed guy sorounded the isolated desk after the stalls lined up earlier were moved away by the chaos earlier .

Zone's crimson eyes locked unto them and suddenly made an order to Doze . " Bring your master away now Doze . "

Uno smiled , just earlier ... The fragments of memories that he sealed escaped and returned back to the owner . One would wonder wether Zone was talking about making Doze take Jiro's soul away , or his current body . One would wonder how Zone knew him .

It's because of the memory that was finally restored . However , Zone didn't look back at Jiro who was hiding behind under the desk . Instead , his crimson eyes stared intensely at the group of men around him .

" Bring Zone away from here , if he joined the fight he might recieve the reality's curse . "

Jiro widened his eyes and wanted to retort , but Doze as if possessed didn't ask for his master's permissions this time and heeded Zone's command as if it was itched within his soul to never disobey Zone .

Jiro watched as his soul was forcibly sucked and blacked out . One second before he went unconscious , there's only one thing that he was unwilling .

And that was that he didn't get to spend his time with his wife after he they confirmed their feelings . Jiro felt resentful , why would the heavens not want him and Zone to be together with just a few more years?

Just a few more years ...

He just wanted to heal his broken heart!

Why?

Why would they deprive him of his wishes?

Why would heavens meddle with his love life?

---

When Jiro finally disappeared , the previous blue haired man suddenly became a black haired man and stared coldly at the men surrounding him .

" Haha ... "

" Hahaha ... Hahahahaha " Zone started laughing sarcastically .

However , one would notice that there's a hint of anger , hatred , loathing , resentment and etc . All synonyms of hatred were now present within the sound waves of his laughter .

He stared at them with wide and perverted eyes , as if he had gone crazy .

" You never let me go huh? Do you think you could fool me? Hah? Long time no see ... Lance . "

The man in front removed his cloak and stared with distress at the black haired man standing alone surrounded by them .

" Why are you still alive ? " The man asked , one would really wonder why you could not trace any killing intent and dislike on his voice .

He sounded calm and tranquil .

" ... Why am i alive? I don't know either ... There's a lot of gaps within my memory , i only know that your name is Lance and it's been a long time since we have seen each other ... Is that true? "

Lance sighed , then slowly brandished his spear.  " You are a criminal now , Zone . We had to kill you . "

Zone smirked and swept his gaze mockingly at the blonde haired man . " Then why had you not killed me when i was still defenseless? Are you guys idiot? When i was a weak hearted Zone at the modern earth . Why has your boss not dispatched his men to kill me? "

" Is it just how you're mentality is? That it would be meaningless to kill an ant? You guys are waiting for me to fatten up before the slaughter? "

Zone snickered and said through gritted teeth . " That's the most idiotic theory that i have ever thought . "

Lance's arm trembled in anger . " Shut your mouth  . "

Zone snorted " what? You're not attacking? Are your words nothing but air? False intimidation? "

" Don't tell me you never had any intentions to kill me , Lance . What? You're afraid of me? "

Zone's voice reverberated within Lance's . Yeah , he's indeed scared of Zone . Not because of his weak power , but because of his potential . He could easily grow , even if his powers were sealed . There's still a point one percent chance that Lance would be defeated . After all , he's only a low rank member .

He was dispatched to kill Zone , but deep inside . He knew there's no way to kill a man like him . An existence so mighty that could even contend with their Lord God.

" Poor Lance , you've been demoted eh . What happened to you? "

Zone's eyes turned cold as he coldly smirked. " It would be best if you retreat . You guys are really cunning huh , you would even use the world consciousness against me to forcibly injure my soul . Fantastic indeed , but there's no i would let myself be injured without giving you a fatale wound .

Suddenly , Two Fox Tails appeared behind him . One blue , one White . His hair turned Half White and Blue , while long sharp nails grow on his hands .

" Let's play . "

Lance and the black men immediately stepped back . They bounced back around 10 meters away in a blink of an eye .

* Crack

Spiderweb like crack suddenly appeared on the area surrounding Zone . Showcasing how powerful Zone originally was . However , that could only be considered .2% of his real power . This is far away from his full strength , yet Lance and his companions were already intimidated .

They thought , what if Zone unsealed most of his tails . Wouldn't that be dreadful?

" Eeeh~ running away? Come to daddy ok~ Let daddy spank your butts!!!!! "

A man in black was suddenly kicked in the butt when Zone suddenly appeared out of nowhere behind the man and kicked his rear . He flew to the air without his control , yet Zone did not finished his play yet and immediately bent his legs and jumped up high as if he's in his fox form . Foxes could jump high , this method of hunting were already etched within his soul .

Zone flew over the man's body and suddenly spin his hips to sent a powerful ankle to the man's spine .

* Crack

Indistinct sounds of bone cracking echoed out mid-air before the man dived unto the ground , burried unconscious by the impact .

Lance frowned . " This is bad , Zone has gone mad and doesn't care about the world's punishment anymore . Let's run , we could only damage a small part of city . If we angered the consciousness , we will surely suffer backlash . Retreat!!! "

" Where do you think you're going?!!! " Zone shouted interrupting Lance's command .

Zone was in berserk mode . His crimson eyes had already turned deep red that it almost looked black from the murkiness of the color .

" I am only warming up yet . Bastards!!!! "

Zone bent his knees again and jumped towards the nearest man , he caught the man's neck and lifted him up high . Jumping up mid-air , before kicking him again to the ground .

Everytime he caught a men in black , several deep craters would be made because of the impact of his attacks .

" Hahaha don't run away bit**es!!! Let me vent my anger on you ok~??? "

One of the black haired man trembled . " Lance!!! Why didn't you tell us that this man would be this so perverted!! "

Lance clenched his fist , his fingers were now cold . " I didn't expect that he would really disregard the world consciousness' authority and would wantonly destroy a city .

Lance's eyes immediately opened when Zone's face appeared out of nowhere in from of him with his face so near that their nose almost touched . Lance's heart almost jumped out of his throat from fright .

Cold fingers grasped Lances neck and stared at Lance's body greedily .

Lance trembled .

This is bad!

Really bad .

In a quick span of time , all his companion had died under the tainted bloody hands of the monster in front of him .

* Splash!

Silence enveloped the whole area . The once bustling street now became a destroyed ground . There's not even a single trave of the former look of it . The building's were utterly destroyed . You could not imagined the former image out of the destroyed sorroundings full of craters with a pool of blood. 

Zone kicked Lance's corpse and slowly licked his bloody hands . " He really tasted good , but of course there's nothing more tasty than my husband's white liquid . " Said Zone and slowly sat on Lance's belly .

Sharp nails scratched the neck coated with violet traces of his fingers .

Suddenly , Lance's soul force was absorbed by Zone . Replenishing his injured soul , slowly repairing it .

" Delicious soul force . " Zone smacked his lips and also went to the other corpses , he sucked their soul out and didn't even let their soul essence and remaining Divinity .

" So many presents , today is probably my birthday . "

Far away from the destroyed city , a white haired old man watched the scenario unfold and sighed . The old man rubbed his temples and didn't meddle with Zone's matter anymore .

Although he indeed destroyed a part of his guarded world . It's not entirely Zone's fault that he was attacked .

" That useless watcher , can't he see that the men he dispatched had long been replaced by the organization above? "

" Useless , so useless! I will destroy his world in return for the the damage i recieved ."

-

A flash of energy illuminated the area as Uno's body appeared . " Master , what you did is harmful to your soul . "

Zone coldly looked at Uno them shook his head . " I don't care. "

Zone felt that one of his tail was sealed again , he had already unlocked his second tail , but it was now sealed again due to his deeds .

" I hate it , i hate repeating these actions again and again . "

Zone remembered the dreams he dreamt when he was still a child in the modern world . He kept on living again and again , yet he was always misfortunate .

" [ Beep ] [ beep] !!! I hate this life . "
