20 Explosion!

"Who's there?!"

"Intruder!"

When one of the three men in black saw an unfamiliar person inside their hideout, he cried out in surprise.

"We've got an intruder!"

"Shoot! Kill him!"

"Take this!"

"Fire!"

-Ratatat!-

A hail of bullets rained down towards their enemy, but it only lasts for a moment because Leon suddenly vanished from their sight.

"Where is he?!"

Their confusion was cut short by the painful scream of their comrade.

"Uwaah!" Holding one of his hand, it was bent in a weird direction. His wail never stops even for one second.

This spectacle sent a chill down their spine.

Leon takes a single step and immediately arrived beside the second man, then he sent a kick that bends the man's leg in a creepy way.

The last man was frozen in fear as he listened to the wail of his comrade.

Leon didn't attack the last man. Facing the two wailing men on the floor, his eyes lit up with inspiration.

He poured some Psion into one of the blueprints in his bracelet.

Immediately particle of lights lit up his hand before he absorbed the activation sequence into his brain.

The feeling is wonderful.

Leon followed the steps according to the content of the book he had read earlier.

He put the coordinate and size of the magic, then set the intensity to the maximum.

Leon reached out his hand and blasting heat quickly consumes the two incapacitated men, melting their skin and flesh.

"Uwaah!!"

"Gahh!!"

Their wail of despair echoed to the whole factory.

Leon averted his face from the disgusting scene and turned his attention to the last man.

"No! Don't come any closer!" The last survivor scream at the approaching Leon in panic.

"Please... Huck!" he let out a choked sound as Leon raised the man by the neck. His feet started to leave the floor and dangling in the air. Despair filled his mind.

"Who're you people?" Leon asked the man choked by him, but the answer is hard to understand, it was gibberish.

"Oh right, you're busy right now, so it's impossible for you to speak." Leon let out an amused laugh.

"You know what... if you answer my question truthfully, then I will spare your life."

Even though the man is suffocated and on the verge of death, a faint light of hope flickered in his eyes.

"But hmm... nevermind, I changed my mind." The newly gained hope immediately vanished from the man's eyes when he heard Leon's voice, despair instantly returns to his mind.

For a moment, he thought Leon was going to spare him.

After done with the teasing, Leon slowly increased the strength of his grip and the resistance on his hand started to fade away.

-Crack-

Accompanied by a snapping sound, Leon throws the body away from him and proceed to go deeper into the factory.

The place is oddly quiet even after the loud noises created by the men earlier.

Leon raised his eyebrows in surprise when he opened the double door at the end of the corridor, it was filled with armed men. After a quick scan, there are more than thirty people with rifles spreading on the whole place.

Without hesitation, Leon rushed to the most concentrated group of men with his fastest speed.

Even though they're not able to follow Leon's movement, more than 30 people still fired their weapon at random in every direction, hoping to hit their target.

-Ratatat!--Ratatatata!-

Hail of bullets leaves their muzzle at high speed to block Leon's advance and torn him asunder.

Time once again slowed down as Leon re-activated his Mangekyou. Immediately, every single bullets' trajectory is captured by his eyes, but it was far too numerous for Leon to evade them all.

So, before they could reach him, Leon leaps high into the air and landed in the middle of the men.

Leon thrust his palm between the man's ribs.

"Gahh!" The man coughs out blood as he was thrown backward toward his comrade.

Leon didn't miss the chance as he flashed between the crowd continuously, attacking left and right without giving them a chance to respond.

Panic quickly filled their minds as Leon's speed is way too fast for them to see. It's impossible to shoot Leon without killing their friends.

Blood and broken limbs are scattered everywhere and it grows larger by the second.

The men that stood far from Leon sent a panicked glance towards each other, not knowing what to do.

The battle occurring in front of them is very gory and brutal causing their whole bodies to tremble in horror.

In the end, their mind was clouded by fear.

In order to save their own lives, they started to shoot Leon and their friends with rifles.

At this time, they're no longer thinking about the fate of their comrades. As long as they are able to kill the unstoppable reaper who was after their life, then it will be worth the sacrifice.

-Ratatat!-

-Baratatat!-

The rifles unleased their fury towards allies and enemy alike, killing everything that stood in their path.

Cries of indignation resounded in the factory, it's a tragedy.

But under their shocked gaze, Leon is still alive with no sign of injury.

It means they've killed their friends for nothing!

Before Leon had the chance to kill the rest of the terrorists, he saw a red light flickering from the corner of his eye.

Through the broken window, he saw the silhouette of a woman outside the abandoned factory.

"Darkness blacker than black and darker than dark, I beseech thee, combine with my deep crimson."

It's getting weirder when the woman started to chants some gibberish, yet it was fascinating in people's ears.

"The time of awakening cometh. Justice, fallen upon the infallible boundary, appears now as intangible distortions!"

Although it was very Chuuni and full of nonsense, it felt somewhat familiar to Leon.

He felt as though he has heard this weird chant before, but he can't seem to put his finger on it.

There's something wonderful with the crimson light glittering around the woman's body.

As he listening to her silvery voice, Leon feels like being in the twilight zone.

"I desire for my torrent of power a destructive force: a destructive force without equal! Return all creation to cinders, and come from the abyss!"

"Explosion!"

At that time, the woman's final word finally triggered Leon's memory.

The witch outfit and that chants... it was Megumin's cosplay!

-Boom!-

Leon opened his eyes wide in disbelief as a massive explosion went off, engulfed him and the men in black. Everything was burned to ashes, leaving no trace behind.

Every people in the city was panicked when the massive explosion occurred in the middle of the night.

Those who are asleep were jolted awake by the explosion.

Many people come out from the building, looking at the crimson dome of light that wipes out the abandoned factory from the face of the earth.

Although the explosion was far from the city, they can still feel the ground shaking beneath them.

Amidst the burning carnage, Leon found a figure on the platform near one of the blackened devices that had been ripped apart by the explosion.

"Hmph! These terrorists deserve a thousand death!"

A familiar voice entered his ears, it was filled with righteous fury.

Leon walks closer to the figure and as he expected, she is the culprit behind the explosion.

Just like Leon, there's no injury on her body even though they're both in the thick of explosion.

The woman finally noticed Leon as he gets closer to her position.

"Huh? there's a survivor among the terrorist?" she raised her eyebrows in surprise and the intent to fight instantly returned to her eyes, "Ha! It doesn't matter, I will erase every single villain from the surface of the world."

"Crimson-black blaze, king of myriad worlds, though I promulgate the laws of nature..."

"What the... this crazy bitch!" Curses escaped from Leon's lips as the woman started to chant for a second explosion.

Before the woman had the chance to finish her chant, Leon suddenly rushed to the front of the woman.

"I am the alias of destruction incarna-" Leon's speed startled the woman and it disturbed her chant, leaving it unfinished.

"Explosion!" Under Leon's shocked gaze, the startled woman skipped the whole chants and directly shouted the nasty word right in front of his face... and the second explosion went off...

-Boom!-

The city is full of chaos, many people flee from their houses when the ground beneath them shaking violently and their windows shattered. They're afraid that the incoming explosion might destroy the whole city.

As a result of the second explosion, the factory was replaced with a massive crater and two people standing in the middle of it.

"Huh? why are you still alive..." The woman opened her crystal blue eyes in disbelief, "According to the system, the Sinner Stone is a single purchase item and I need to save two worlds worth of points to purchase it... it's impossible for someone to have it... so how..."

"Uh... miss, calm down. I think there's a misunderstanding between us."

Unfortunately, the woman doesn't have any intention to listen to any of his words and still absorbed in her own world.

"Ha! You're the strongest villain I have faced in my fourth world. So you can be proud as the first person to taste my third explosion..."

The people were already evacuated from the city and anticipating more explosion to shake the city once more, but no matter how long they wait, it never came.

"Phew... this is very tiring." Leon wipes the sweat on his cheek.

In front of him is a woman in witch outfit. she sprawled on the ground with her hands tied by a belt and a smelly sock in her mouth. She rocked back and forth with tears coursing down her cheeks.

But Leon ignored her muffled cry and focused his attention on the red footprints that leave through the factory back entrance.

His prey had slipped away...
