He was leading the kids to the village when he saw Gaya, Cindy, her mother, and the baby in midway.
"ROY!"
"CINDY!"
The girl shouted at the boy as the children quickly ran towards Cindy and her mother crying and sobbing.
"Young master Riyan"
Cindy's mother came to him and she couldn't hold back her tears looking at the lifeless body of Riyan.
"It was a good thing you came here, the kids shouldn't see the village, they have already been through enough"
"Thank...thank you, young master"
"No"
Michela shook his head and stepped back when she crouched to grab his legs to thank him.
"Just take care of them, I will be back soon"
Gaya too followed him right behind to the village leaving everyone behind.
"It was the Blood and bones sect, human"
"Why?"
"The reason was a surprisingly simple one, human, according to the woman, the blood and bones sect was taking their coins in the name of protection fee"
"Protection from what?"
"From nothing, they were just using the reason to milk these villagers, and recently they raised the protection fee "
She air quoted the words protection fee and continued
"The woman said they were barely able to pay the previous fee but when they raised it, they simply couldn't scrape together enough coins, so they asked for more time"
"They didn't give time, did they?"
Gaya shook her head hearing him
"Yes, instead of giving them time, those f**kers decided to use the villagers as human dummies and let their students practice spells on them"
Because she was walking behind him, she was unable to see the killing intent in his eyes as she went on.
"If it wasn't for the human in your arms who killed some of their students and led the remaining children away from the village, those tiny humans would be dead too. What are you planning to do, human? "
"First, I should bury those people, they deserve proper burials and I will give it to them"
******************************
At the moment, Gaya felt thirsty and tired just by looking at him digging hole after hole and burying each and every villager after wrapping them in white clothing.
"Why are you doing this human? You don't know these people, you already used a valuable healing potion by saving that tiny human and its mother"
"It's not much Gaya, this is just a basic humanity, where I come from, there are at least people there to give the dead a proper burial, I don't think that's true here, tell me I'm wrong"
"I don't know where you came from human, but here, this how things are, in this place, there's only one rule, the rule of the jungle, if you are not a predator, you're a prey"
Micheal took a deep breath and stabbed the shovel into the ground as Gaya noticed the look of unwavering determination on his face.
"Then I will be the strongest, most powerful predator this world has ever seen and hunt every dirtbag in this world"
[Ding, Congratulations to the host for setting a goal. The host will receive a reward of 450 badass points and a healing potion ]
Little by little, he started to apprehend the reason when he was sent to this world with the system. Until now, he had never thought that this world would be this much messed up where the strong could hunt down and massacre people like they were nothing.
In his previous life, every person he killed was a crook or criminal in some way that they were better dead than alive to the world, not once in his life he took an innocent life, even a hitman like him had a moral code but the cultivators in this world had nothing, not even a shred of mercy towards these poor people. He knew the little girl Cindy must have walked for hours to reach the guild and ask for help but none of them were willing to help her but only tried to chase her away.
If someone like Riyan came sooner than he did, they could have saved more lives, saved more children. If he was on earth, he would have paid a hefty sum to these people and left because he had no power back there to change the entire world, he was just a human but in this world, he had the means to be the strongest, he had the most powerful weapon in this world, the system.
The remaining bit of Abras's soul changed the way Micheal looked at this world and influenced his mindset. After burying all these people, he understands his place in this world and realized what he needs to do.
"I'm going to do what I do best, kill people"
