060 THE RAVENOUS RAVENS

060 THE RAVENOUS RAVENS

The women remained silent, their expression unreadable as Kasshyek accepted them. They didn't know what fate awaited them with Kasshyek but it was much much better than being with the demon Lusifar to become his vessels of sacrifice.

Leo, satisfied, gave a small nod. "Enjoy your reward, old friend. I'll give you some tips with the women if you need them."

"That is not necessary, I've watched you enough times to know what to do with the women", he replied with an embarrassed grin.

"Maybe I'll stand and watch for a change."

"You're a generous lord, sharing your harem of women with your loyal soldiers," Yun-Yun remarked, glancing at Leo with a smile.

"Gifting not sharing and it's only fair," Leo replied. "Kasshyek risked his life for me. A little reward now and then is well-deserved. Besides I don't really want to touch those vicious women after I knew what they've done to the unicorns."

"But you are all mine," he added holding Yun-Yun to him.

"But I won't make enough lust for you", she replied. "You'll need much more than I can provide."

"Lust isn't everything in life," Leo said with a smile, then added, "but indulging now and then isn't a crime."

He pulled Yun-Yun into his arms and kissed her.

"Aren't you supposed to be heading to the Black Market?" she asked, a playful glint in her eye.

"The Black Market can wait," he replied, grinning. "For a few days, maybe."

[At the Black Market of Gomora]

"Here wear a mask", Leo offered Yun-Yun a mask. It was a requirement to be in the Black Market.

"I'm alright," she refused the mask, slipping her arm through his as they strolled toward the slave market where Leo had first found her.

"It feels like ages since you took me away from here," Yun-Yun murmured.

"Too bad there aren't any others from your sect left here. We could free them, and they could keep you company," Leo said.

"I was the last one they couldn't sell," she replied.

Suddenly, a voice called out, "Hey! Isn't that the slave bitch who made us lose so much money?"

"Who the hell are you?" Leo demanded, turning toward the voice.

"We're the ones who dragged this bitch back from the frontlines. It was hard work, and the slavers barely paid us while you enjoy her. You ripped us off!" sneered one of the men.

The man recognized Yun-Yun without her mask on.

He was a slaver who had been responsible for capturing Yun-Yun and her clan from the Eastern Kun Empire. They were unhappy that Leo bought Yun-Yun for a song because everybody thought she couldn't be tamed, and they received a pittance as a result.

But she was tamed by Leo, nonetheless. Meaning they lost on the deal.

Rage suddenly flashed in Yun-Yun's eyes as she remembered the suffering she endured at the slavers' hands.

"The…se monsters!!"

Yun-Yun wanted nothing more than to take revenge on the slavers, but she was still weakened, her magic seal far from recovered.

Leo saw the fury in her expression and stepped forward. "Allow me."

In an instant, he summoned magic stones that struck the slaver in the groin with brutal force, crushing him entirely. The man's agonized screams rang out as he collapsed, blood seeping through his clothes.

Seeing this, more slavers approached, their weapons drawn.

"Damn it, my cast panel's still on cooldown," Leo muttered through gritted teeth, frustration evident in his voice.

The casting panel was his greatest asset from the System for quick spellwork, allowing him to unleash pre-prepared spells in an instant.

But it came with a catch: after each use, the panel required a cooldown period before it could be used again. Casting spells manually was an option, but the process was far slower—a luxury he didn't have in the heat of the moment.

Yun-Yun stepped forward, her fists clenched tightly, determination burning in her eyes. "Then let me handle this. I'll take my revenge myself," she declared, her hands already tracing intricate patterns in the air as she began preparing a spell.

Leo hesitated, concern flickering across his face. "But can you even cast right now? Do you have the magic to cast?" he asked, though the answer came to him before the words had fully left his lips.

He knew exactly what he needed to do.

Leo stepped behind Yun-Yun, wrapping his arms around her as she moved, matching her gestures. She was casting a spell she didn't have the power to complete—but with Leo's unique magic abilities, he could bring her spell to life.

"Have you got the spell yet?" she asked.

"Yes," Leo replied.

"Release!" Yun-Yun cried as a horde of dark, monstrous ravens erupted from her spell pattern, each one filled with her rage.

The ravens descended upon the slavers in a frenzy, their beaks and claws tearing flesh, gouging eyes, and ripping limbs. The slavers' screams echoed through the market, but there was no mercy—the ravens pecked and tore with relentless fury, shredding the slavers piece by piece.

The gruesome scene left nothing but blood and broken bodies, Yun-Yun's vengeance finally unleashed.

Suddenly, more slavers emerged, their weapons drawn, ready to attack.

Yun-Yun hesitated for a moment. There was a change in her.

"This time, I'll handle it myself," Yun-Yun said, her voice resolute as she began weaving a spell with her hands.

Leo stepped aside, letting her cast uninterrupted.

Just as the slavers closed in, monstrous ravens materialized, clawing and pecking at her enemies with ferocious speed. These were the men who had humiliated her before, and exacting her revenge seemed to reignite her pride.

As more slavers poured in, Leo glanced at her. "There are more of them fuckers—do you need help, Yun-Yun?"

"No, I'm only just beginning," Yun-Yun replied smilingly, pleased with her, summoning an even larger flock of ravens.

With each spell, the ravens grew fiercer, their magic intensifying. Soon, the entire horde of slavers had fallen into a brutal display, their body parts scattered across the marketplace as the ravens tore them apart and fed.
