Chapter 55 Demon Massacre
With this realization, he chose a tiny realm and settled with a kind-hearted human queen, later birthing children as they lived joyfully. But because of the little sun in this universe, which is billions of times smaller than the ones in the God Land, his god-like abilities were reduced to only strength, which he still dominated with. But he died after failing to achieve full Dao Heart\'; where one kills his emotions and lives in a state of emptiness, his reason was the human wife he couldn\'t eliminate from his mind.
His descendants lived on as one created a clan in the now broken world. This descendant maintained the traditions of the Heavenly Sun Race while teaching his descendant about their origins and ancestor lineage. And these traditions lived on till the present, which Drucius and the other male descendants are undergoing. According to Drisilia, the traditions were requirements.
A year after birth, the male descendants of the clan will be accompanied by their mothers to train for a minimum period of twenty years. During that time, they will be taught about the rules of the clan, the traditions, the history, and the responsibilities they have to the clan; of course, they must at least be able to access their one percent level of origin strength, which according to Grace is only 0.95%.
And according to Drisilia, after the said descendants accomplish the clan\'s requirements, they will be entitled to declare themselves a member of the Heavenly Sun Race, which means they now possess the strength to walk the earth alone. But completing the formal requirements was just the acceptance phase; one important factor that distinguishes most members from the rest is a \'Title.\' A title is only given to those who survive a life and death battle while wearing the four bracelets without help.
The arrival of the demon had presented Drucius the opportunity to gain a title. With this thought, Drucius\' expression was normal as he will be gaining a title possibly earlier than most other descendants.
"An hour seems small mother, at least make it five."
Drucius spoke as he looked at his mother for approval; he was excited to begin his first life and death battle as it would be a new experience. Drisilia hovered slightly above the ground as she still had her eyes closed; when Drucius asked to increase the time, she didn\'t react as she opened her eyes and turned to him.
"You are a man now; you can do as you please."
Drisilia looked at her son with love and affection as she spoke. Her innocent baby boy was about to leave her wings of protection as he would be beginning his life of real struggle and pain. She knows he is an arrogant boy, but if she constantly interferes, that will hinder his mental growth in the future. The only way to learn is to experience it; one will never understand the consequence of arrogance until one is humbled by reality. With her final thoughts expressed, she gave Drucius one last look as she hoped him the best.
Drucius heard his mother as he got the approval to do as he wishes; but instead of dashing at the demons, Drucius looked at his mother as she quickly faced her head forward as if nothing happened, but deep down, Drucius felt a slight heartache as he knelt and kowtowed to his mother.
"Thank you, mother, for raising me all these years; I will make you proud."
"Now go and begin your final trial; remember, they are not training dummies."
(Background Soundtrack; "House of Memories-Slowed")
With one last word from his mother, Drucius stood as he nodded. He closed his eyes as he deeply inhaled; with a loud exhale, Drucius took a step, then another, then another. After a few steps, Drucius\' speed changed from walking to jogging, then from jogging to running, as his speed increased within ten seconds. With Drucius\' speed increasing, his silhouette was all one could see as he ran through the desert sand like a desert tsunami, his heavy steps causing the sand to clear whenever his feet touched the ground.
Far in the sky, the demon leader, Yaotzin, hovered above his legions as he saw the single Drucius rushing towards his army of billions plus demons and beasts. He had his hands behind his back as he smirked. He looked at the thousands of demons below him as he spoke.
"So he wishes to challenge my army all by himself? Well then, let\'s make him regret his arrogance. Send the mountain wolves first."
The demon leader ordered as the command instantly reached the mountain wolves. As ordered, over twenty thousand mountain-like wolves walked out from the demon group as they stepped in front of the lower legions. The wolves were as big as mountains, with red eyes and tails long enough to wrap around their bodies as if for defense.
HOWL! TREMBLE!
The wolves howled as the space trembled; the next second, one wolf dashed as the others followed suit. Drucius rushed at the demons as he saw hundreds of gigantic wolves rushing at him; the ground of the broken world began trembling as it caused the broken world to tilt to the south.
"Haaaaaaaaaa."
Drucius screamed as he jumped into the sky, his body speeding in the air as his jump height was even higher than the mountain wolves. He clenched his fist as he drew both arms to his side, preparing a punch as his body began descending.
"TAAAAKKKKKKEEEEE THHHIIISSSS."
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Drucius landed his double punches as the first two mountain wolves were obliterated, their mouths punched through as one could see the insides of the wolves. The wolves in the back didn\'t stop even after seeing the instant death of two of their brethren. On the contrary, they increased their speeds as their mountainous bodies towered over Drucius.
"Haaa"
Drucius\' roar sounded between the wolves as he stretched both arms; he held onto the front legs of the two wolves, his small arms wrapping around the gigantic legs as he pulled. Splash! Tear! Sounds of body tearing and blood splashing echoed as Drucius ripped both legs of the mountain wolves, causing them to fall on their necks. He jumped as he reached the eye level of both lower wolves. Splash! Splash! another splashing sound echoed as Drucius pierced the eyeballs of both wolves, causing them to howl loudly.
The other wolves took caution as they began swinging their tails and wrapping them around their bodies as they rushed at Drucius. Again, Drucius jumped as he began landing on the faces of the wolves where there wasn\'t any tail covering them. His feet were heavily landing into the heads of the mountain wolves as he continued the same process over the heads of the hundreds of hundreds of mountain wolves that rushed at him.
Far behind Drucius, Drisilia hovered as she clenched her fist as if ready to interfere the second she notices her son in danger. She squinted her eyes as she zoomed her sight into the pack of wolves fighting her son. While observing the fight, her dreads started loosening as one of the gold strings attached to it detached from her hair; it slowly floated as it pointed in the opposite direction of the battle, launching after as it instantly disappeared.
Drucius casually jumped and landed into the heads of thousands of mountain wolves as his heels heavily smashed into the skulls of the wolves, breaking and punching a hole through their heads. He continued this process as he killed over five thousand mountain wolves in fifty minutes. Drucius did a bigger jump as his feet landed on the single head of a mountain wolf, breaking its skull as it lay flatlined.
With the carcass on the ground, Drucius punched through the guts of the wolf as he traveled through its dead body, piercing a hole through its hip as he jumped from it. He landed at the tail of the dead wolf as he gripped it with both arms.
"Haaaa"
A bellow rang out as one could see a boy holding to the tail of a dead beast; he began turning his body as the carcass also began moving with his swing. The next moment, booming and trembling sounds began sounding out as Drucius swept thousands of mountain wolves from their feet using the carcass of their fallen brethren. The falling of the wolves caused the ground to tremble as they were mountain size beasts.
Drucius jumped again as he landed into the fallen wolves, his punch flatlining thousands of wolves as he continued his path of demon massacre. With different tactics and methods, Drucius annihilated over nineteen thousand mountain wolves in two hours as his figure became smaller the more carcasses that fell on the ground. Blood covered Drucius as his dark skin body was now painted red, his uppercut dreads soaked in blood as he continued his massacre.
The demon leader, Yaotzin, saw his mountain wolves getting massacred; but his expression was as if he was watching a boring fight. With how enormous his legions were, losing even a million demons would seem like a drop of water in an ocean to him. Although he wasn\'t interested in Drucius\' battle, he imagined how strong the elders must be if a single boy could singlehandedly fight and kill twenty thousand mountain wolves with no injuries.
"What an annoying race."
Drucius finally finished the twenty thousand mountain wolves as the carcasses lay in disorder while blood splashed and sprayed in the surroundings. Among the dead beasts, Drucius slowly climbed the body of the dead beasts as his bloody figure could be seen standing on the alpha of the mountain wolves. In his right hand was the enormous eyeball of a wolf as he threw it at the demons who stood in formations five hundred meters away from Drucius.
"It seems mother was right; these are not training dummies."
(End of Background soundtrack)
A golden string thrust in a certain direction within the void as it reached a certain location; the string instantly stopped at this location as the next moment, it began rotating as if creating a door to a separate dimension. Indeed, after rotating for three seconds, it disappeared as it left the outside void.
Within this separate dimension the golden string just entered, there was a separate world different from the outside world. This dimension was still part of the broken world, but it had its lands and ecosystem; the only thing it shared with the broken world was the sun. And the most noticeable thing in this dimension was that the sun was closer to the land than the sun in the outside world.
The string which just entered this dimension continued as it rushed directly towards the sun. The string continued as it was caught by a being who hovered next to the sun. This being had short dreads and golden shade eyes. He was dark skin with a massive body; from a closer look, this being had sun symbols etched on his body as its radiated extreme heat.
The being caught the gold string with his golden eyes shining with bright light; He slowly smiled as he spoke a name.
"Drisilia."
