Secret Ultimate Skill: Son-Ending Kick!

Chapter 4: Secret Ultimate Skill: Son-Ending Kick!

"So you were hiding in the pile of corpses all along. If you hadn't been unlucky enough to run into us, you might have actually slipped away, you Freyvans remnant."

"Why waste words on him? Just kill him. Grab the goods and get out."

"Kid, blame your own bad luck."

One of the soldiers sneered as he raised his gun barrel, aiming it at Luo.

They felt no guilt in their hearts!

To them, a living Luo was nothing but a nuisance, an eyesore.

With nowhere to run, Luo clenched his teeth, his eyes burning with hatred and defiance!

He hated his own weakness, and he hated these heartless butchers who had slaughtered everyone in Freyvans even more.

"Is this where it all ends? I haven't taken my revenge on this hopeless world yet... I won't accept this!"

Just as the man's finger slowly began to squeeze the trigger, countless images flashed through Luo's mind—his father, mother, little sister, the nun, and his friends from the church.

But at that very moment, no one noticed a figure silently creeping up behind the soldier about to fire.

The [Leg Strength Enhancement Shoes] were instantly dialed to the highest setting, Gear Three. Under the dual stimulation of electricity and magnetic force, the power in his right leg muscles surged to its absolute limit.

Secret Ultimate Skill: Son-Ending Kick!

Abel put every ounce of his strength into a vicious kick aimed squarely at the spot between the man's legs!

That kick was earth-shattering!

Not in terms of raw power, but in the sheer brutality of its aftermath.

In that split second, something seemed to shatter.

The soldier Abel had ambushed felt a searing pain erupt from between his thighs. Then, as if all the strength had been drained from his body, his face went pale, his eyes bulged, and drool spilled from his mouth as he collapsed to his knees.

The pain was so excruciating that he could only open his mouth wide in a silent scream.

It was a torment worse than death!

Just like that, the bastard passed out from the agony, his vision going dark as he crumpled to the ground.

It all happened in an instant. The other soldier and Luo, who had been waiting for death, both stood there dumbfounded.

They couldn't figure out why someone else was here, and that kick—just watching it made their own legs ache, instinctively making them squeeze their thighs together.

In this situation, even Abel's pre-used [I Am Just a Passerby] had lost its effect. He couldn't be ignored anymore—lowering your presence didn't mean turning truly invisible!

But Abel, having landed his hit, didn't freeze up like them, nor did he try to grab the gun he'd dropped earlier.

Instead, he hurled something at the other soldier.

The motion finally snapped the man out of his stupor!

He almost instinctively rolled to the side, dodging perfectly. A banana.

That's right, what Abel had thrown was just a banana.

"You're asking for it!"

The soldier snarled, fury blazing in his chest. He was even more enraged by his own overreaction, feeling humiliated.

That brat had made a fool of him!

He immediately got up, raising his gun to aim.

"Huh? Where'd he go?"

"Get down!"

Abel, who had already taken cover, saw Luo still standing there like an idiot and had to shout.

Whether Luo understood his meaning or not was up to fate.

Luckily, Luo wasn't stupid. He had already recognized Abel, so he obediently threw himself forward, hitting the ground.

And then, the next second, the banana lying near the soldier's foot suddenly exploded!

With a boom, it blasted him into the air.

That guy probably died never understanding what the hell had just happened.

Only Abel was inwardly wincing at the 5 Trade Points he'd spent on that [Banana Grenade].

But considering its power and deceptive nature, it was definitely worth it.

After all, how many people would be afraid of a banana and keep their distance?

The feeling of killing someone for the first time wasn't great, but for Abel, who had opened his eyes to find himself lying among countless corpses, it wasn't as hard to stomach as he'd imagined.

Bang!

Just then, a gunshot drew his attention.

He turned his head to see Luo, having picked up the fallen gun, with a vicious expression on his face, putting a bullet through the head of the poor bastard whose balls had been crushed.

At this moment, Luo radiated a terrifying aura that warned everyone to stay away. In the span of a single day, he had endured the ultimate despair of watching his parents killed, his sister burned alive, and the nun and his church companions all gunned down.

For a ten-year-old child, this was simply impossible to bear.

"How does it feel to kill someone for the first time?"

Abel slowly took the gun from Luo's hand, his tone unreadable.

Taking the weapon was to prevent Luo from suddenly losing his mind and hurting him.

As for why he ultimately decided to save Luo, he still felt that this future Supernova had 'investment' value, and the price he needed to pay could be low enough to ignore.

He believed that as a fellow survivor of Freyvans and a partner from the same church, this life-saving debt should be enough for Luo to remember for a lifetime.

Though this line of thinking was somewhat utilitarian, Abel felt no shame about it.

He wasn't anyone's father—if he saved someone without expecting anything in return, what was he saving them for?

Luo didn't immediately answer Abel's question, but he didn't stop Abel from taking the gun from his hand either.

This was undoubtedly good news.

Abel didn't want to have saved someone who was impossible to communicate with, a madman full of self-destructive tendencies. At least Luo hadn't reached that point yet.

Luo took a few deep breaths, the hollow numbness in his eyes fading slightly, before he finally spoke: "This feeling is terrible, but it can't stop me at all."

"Abel, how were you there back then? At that time, I clearly saw Sister Mary and everyone else already..."

Hearing this, Abel's face showed just the right amount of indignation. "Those bastards deceived Sister Mary. It was a trap to lure us in. Everyone was shot. In the chaos, I was hit and fell to the ground, then I didn't know anything else. When I woke up again, I found myself thrown here. Thanks to this precious protective suit, I managed to scrape by."

"Luo, it's a good thing you didn't come with us back then. Otherwise, we might not have had the chance to meet again here. By the way, how did you survive?"

Luo lowered his hat, his expression pained as he recounted his own experience. "Everyone died. Mom, Dad, and my little sister hiding in the hospital... In the end, I hid among the corpses and was transported here, but I was still discovered. If you hadn't saved me, I might have already reunited with my family by now."

Sometimes, living was a more painful thing than dying.

The only belief now keeping Luo alive was revenge!

Revenge against this twisted, hopeless world!

After hearing each other's stories, for a moment, both of them fell silent.
