Crossover World (7)

As soon as I said that, the woman looked at me and laughed proudly then said it.

"If we've come to the point where a nobody like you can do anything against me, then it's the end of the world." The woman put her right hand on the sheath of her sword and quickly drew it.

"What did you come here for, General Aleida? Can't you see I'm busy with something important?" Rankin's expression had been cold from the moment he saw the general. His answer was also rather harsh.

"I only came to give you a final warning, but now you've crossed the line. This peasant with you was the last straw. In a moment I will report to His Majesty and I am sure he will order me to wipe this city off the face of the earth with you."

Aleida pointed her sword at Rankin and continued to hurl her harsh words. "Your daughter will come with me anyway, so you don't have to worry about her life. If you want your wife to live, you must present her to His Majesty personally."

Upon hearing this, Rankin's expression darkened even more and a fiery aura shot out of his body like crazy. The temperature of the room suddenly increased by an enormous amount, and the sweat on Aleida's face was visible. It was unclear whether it was from stress or the heat, though.

Rankin was about to stand up when I intervened.

"Wait, this woman has been corrupted by the hero and worships him with all her being. So there is no turning back for her. Only a painless death is possible." After saying this, I calmly stood up and looked straight at Aleida. Feeling my eyes on her, the general suddenly felt nervous and took a step back.

"L-Likes of you will kill be? Don't be ridiculous!" Even though she tried to cover her uneasiness with her words, her tone and gestures revealed her true feelings.

Without saying anything, I put my right hand in the shape of a gun and aimed at her head.

A moment later, everything that was in the path of my index finger was punctured. Even though nothing was firing from my finger.

This was the power of the X-Axis. It could pierce through anything in a single line as if it had fired an unstoppable bullet. But no guns or bullets were needed.

The general had a big hole in the center of her forehead. After a few seconds of standing and looking at me with a puzzled expression on her face, she fell backward on her back.

At the same time, Rankin was looking at me with a surprised face. Even though he realized I was strong, he didn't seem to think that I could take down general Aleida in one move.

"There is nothing to be surprised about. No point in wasting time and torturing people who aren't even the right-hand men of our main targets." After saying that, I fired reishi from my right hand at the body of the woman lying on the ground and her body disappeared from the face of the earth.

"...Thank you." Rankin got up from his seat and thankfully bowed a little to me and stood up straight again.

I just nodded my head and did not respond.

"Dad!?! What's the matter, is that bitch here again!" I didn't take action because the woman who came through this door didn't come with hostile intentions.

'This must be the daughter of the city lord Rankin. How old could this man be?' I thought inwardly.

"Lilian, didn't I tell you not to wander outside without telling me first?" The reason he treated his daughter like that was that if I hadn't been here, the general would still be alive and if she saw her here, there was a good chance she'd take her away by force.

Rankin exhaled a tired breath and kept talking. "Anyway, she's gone now and we can relax a bit. This person here is the one who helped us so much today. From now on, treat him with respect." Then he introduced me to his daughter.

Lilian took one look at me and introduced herself. " Pleasure to meet you, I'm Lilian Cristalica. Did you really kill that woman?"

"Indeed it was me."

"What is your name? We've been talking for minutes and I still don't know your name." Rankin then intervened and asked my name.

"Jugram." And I gave him my response.

"Well, Jugram, if you want to kill the heroes and those who support them, you will need help with that. I and my soldiers will always support you after what happened today. But there is one big thing that will help, and I want to show it to you now, if I may."

I was going to tell him that I didn't need any help with this, but when I saw the eager expressions on the faces of the father and daughter, I restrained myself.

"What is it that can help us?"

"It's better to show than to tell. There must be at least three members of the Cristalica family to unseal it. That's why I'm calling my wife now." After saying this, Rankin took out a shiny green stone from a pocket of his clothes and began to speak to the stone after sending energy to it.

"Honey, can you come to my office right now?"

A woman's voice was heard from the other side of the stone. "Okay, I'll be right there my love."
