Rise of The Tyrant

In the 35th year of the Evolver Era Calendar, countless holes suddenly appeared on the surface of the earth's seven continents. These are holes to enter into a mysterious underground world that turns out to be bigger than the world on the surface. Technology doesn't work here, but there are plenty of resources and legacies from the unknown ages. What's even more surprising is that it turns out that there are other holes that lead to a deeper underground world. This second one is still unknown as those who entered haven't returned until now. Ciel Arnaud wishes to explore the Second Underground World to find his parents who disappeared when he was only 7 years old. Unfortunately, his lack of talent makes it difficult to fulfill his wish. Things got really bad after his adoptive sister who was his parent's disciple followed in their footsteps. His father's distant cousin who was supposed to be the next person to take care of him turns out to have a hidden grudge against his father. He caught him, imprisoned him, tortured him, and forced him to tell him where his parents' relics were which he didn't really know at all. In the midst of his despair after one year of torture, something suddenly appeared. This was something that changed his fate. From weak to invincible. From being useless to being the most tyrannical and domineering being. ...

Surrender After the Massacre

The woman's expression became even worse at his threat.

The adventurers, on the other hand, started screaming.

"Captain, don't back down, let's catch this brat."

"Many of us have already died, why should we worry. The important thing is that we didn't lose to a brat."

"He should be taught a lesson so he knows that other people can harm him too."

Ciel's attitude had clearly made them start to not take it anymore.

He was the one bothering them, but now it seemed their captain was at fault. Anyone with self-respect would not be able to accept that.

"Your teleportation must have a limit, right?" The woman asked again.

"Oh…" Ciel showed a strange smile. "Actually that's also something I'd like to know. Maybe you can help me find out.

"Of course, you have to be prepared to take the risk."

"I wonder, are you only Level 3 or 13?"

"Three," Ciel replied.

But when he said that, he had already appeared behind the woman with his Great Sword.

"You think you have the qualifications to continue talking to me," he said as he slashed the sword at her head.

He added, "I want your entire guild to be my subordinate, do everything I tell you or die..."

"You're slow," the woman said suddenly.

She moved beside Ciel then went behind his body. It only took an instant, Ciel was barely able to react due to her speed.

"Your teleportation abilities are amazing, but you're still three Levels below me," she said again before slashing her two swords at Ciel.

Ciel naturally instantly teleported up to twenty meters away from her.

Right after he appeared, the woman lunged at him again with a speed that even his eyes had trouble seeing.

Her body was enveloped in the wind, causing her to appear to be one with the air.

Hastily, Ciel teleported again, this time he appeared very far from her.

He had expected this.

Even with hie teleportation ability, the difference of three levels was still quite difficult, moreover this woman seemed to specialize in speed so she could dodge before his attacks reached her body.

"Woman, I take your counterattack as a question of war with me, alright, now accept the consequences," Ciel said in a loud voice.

"All of you, run at your fastest speed in different directions," the woman shouted in response.

Her guild members nodded, they started running in different directions.

Some who were strong enough even jumped the lava river through rock to rock.

"The death of a few people for the sake of the guild's survival is acceptable, but your mistake is to think I can't slaughter all of your members."

Ciel clenched his fists.

After that, the river of lava suddenly churned, shocking everyone who was jumping on it.

Before they could think of what was going on, the lava in the river surged upwards, rapidly sinking them like a tsunami wave.

Those who happened to be on the rocks could jump to dodge, but those in the air could do nothing.

"Ahhhh...."

Immediately a miserable scream rang out.

Ciel then appeared beside each of them who were screaming and cut their bodies with his sword.

His red and transparent eyes didn't show any emotion.

The remaining survivors quickly fled, away from the river of lava as they realized Ciel could control it.

Ciel himself started to chase the people who had fled in another direction.

His teleportation was extremely fast and unrelenting.

Those on his level could survive, but those below his level could only accept their death.

5, 10, 15, 20...

Ciel counted every life he took.

The more he killed, the colder his blood felt.

He originally thought there was a process before he carried out the massacre of people who could be said to be innocent where the conflict occurred purely because of his senseless attitude.

But quite unexpectedly, it was the first kind of massacre he committed.

This did bother him a bit, but he preferred to stick to his actions so that next time things would be easier.

"No.... Stop that...."

The woman changed her attitude quickly while shock filled her expression.

She who was in a position like she wanted to chase Ciel dropped each of her swords while both her knees fell to the ground.

"I surrender, please don't kill again," she pleaded.

"Hmph, it turns out that you are still weak when you see the deaths of many m members. To think you dared to challenge me," Ciel replied in a disdainful tone.

He appeared again in front of her while his sword was ready to slash at her.

"Tell me what made me able to stop after all this happened?" asked Ciel.

This woman understood himself well, she must have known that even if she gave her life, he would still not let go of her guild members because he was the type to exterminate the grass by the roots.

And there was no way he would accept her as his subordinate now because that would be tantamount to having a knife placed beside his neck.

In response to his question, the woman took something out of her trouser pocket.

It was a yellow paper with an extremely thick ancient aura.

Two words were written on it, "Slave Seal."

Ciel's eyes brightened when he saw that.

"I will be your puppet from now on as long as you promise not to kill them again... Believe me, my ability will really help you," she said.

"Are you sure?" Ciel asked as he stretched out his hand to take the seal.

The woman was silent. Immediately Ciel's hand held the seal.

"Mmm?"

However, at the same time, the woman suddenly grabbed his wrist.

"I wonder if you can teleport when I hold your hand, or I will teleport too?"
