A week has passed since Leon killed Tan. Sun and his group clearly kept this a secret from the public at Leon's request. However, there is one person who cannot be fooled, namely the founder of the city, Vord.
Suddenly he could have revealed the shocking news to the city, but it was not so. This achievement he considered still lacking, because however Leon immediately ran out of energy when the fight ended. On top of the throne, Vord flipped through the pages of the book, ignoring the surroundings.
Although he did not seem to care much about the contents of the book, the man still continued to flip through the pages. The situation was much safer now, the energy from Tan made the city protector much stronger than before. Moreover, as long as the Vord was here, a serious calamity might be far less than imagined.
Vord sighed after flipping through the pages of the book. It was very clear from now on that his mind floated out of nowhere, instead of focusing on the contents of the book. For a moment he looked around, this vast room seemed empty, there was no one but him.
Slowly the Vord walked forward then turned towards the window. He observed the environment outside which was quite rowdy due to the activities of the citizens. Yes, it is because this building does not have a large yard, even fused with the settlement of the residents themselves.
From the beginning the Vord was not from a distinguished family. His life is difficult, until one day the incident of the arrival of extraterrestrials shocked the world. From there the life of this man changed drastically, suddenly he had great strength after being made a guinea pig.
It is a lie that Vord said he was not in pain during the experiment. At that time he even vomited blood due to pain due to Blue Vaccine injections. The vaccine takes time to be absorbed by the body until it eventually causes genetic changes.
Not enough to get there, a crystal stone that was found and believed to have powers beyond human reason was planted in his body using a tool. If the person who becomes a guinea pig is unable to endure pain or has an incompatible physique, it is clear death is the end.
Luckily, before the trial, people who became guinea pigs had to go through a lot of hard exercise and a healthy lifestyle. However, there are still victims because of the superhuman experiment.
Imagining the days where he was tormented both physically and mentally made Vord terrified. However, now he had great abilities so there was no need to worry anymore. Now, he is determined to save people from extraterrestrials even if only a few.
Vord walked back towards the throne while sighing heavily. “Beating Tan alone is not enough ...,” Vord muttered softly while sitting on the singasana.
The book he put on the throne he took back. He repeatedly looked at the brown book cover before exhaling.
“Ti is the most troublesome creature, fighting it alone has overwhelmed me. I hope the creature doesn't come here.” It was natural that Vord wanted to avoid direct confrotation with Ti, especially that the strength of the creature was much stronger than the others. “At first I thought Leon's strength was comparable to some Tan's, but it was disappointing that he could only defeat one Tan. It must sacrifice all its strength.”
Suddenly the sound of knocking on the door echoed in the room. Vord slightly flinched, then invited the person who knocked on the door to enter.
What an unexpected guest, it turns out the person who knocked on the door was Leon. Seeming a cynical smile forming on Vord's lips, it seemed as if he wanted to immediately ridicule Leon for the failure a week ago.
“Wah, wow, wow. Look who's here,” said Vord to mock Leon. “What did the arrogant Leon come here for?”
Unlike Vord's expectations, Leon was seen putting on a flat expression without showing any desire to retaliate. Without waiting for long, Leon immediately opened his mouth turning the topic of conversation directly to the core.
As soon as the question came out of Leon's mouth, Vord immediately gasped. He did not expect that Leon would really remain calm to him.
“Ask only, I will answer if necessary.”
“Tell me, what's your next destination?” Really without making small talk, Leon immediately touched the core of the conversation about the purpose of his arrival here.
“What's in it I'm telling you. After all, as you see now, I will protect this city with my strength even if it costs me a life.”
“Happy day here, it's over, Vord. Now is the time to show your true face to the world. You were born to change history, protect everyone. Your power can do more than anyone else.”
“Hahaha, know what you are about me?” Vord then moved from his throne and looked at Leon from a close distance. “You don't even understand anything, only the person who upholds himself until closing his eyes to see the world.”
“You close your eyes, Vord. Hiding here is like being a hero, but the fact is it only blunts sharp weapons for never being used.”
“Don't insult me, asshole!” A hard blow was fired by Vord into Leon's face.
Leon snatched the punch using his right hand. He just shook his head, the wind due to the impact of the force was created. Leon's hair decomposed backwards due to the gust of wind, but his facial expression remained the same as before. Flat, without any expression.
Leon, during this week has gathered so much information about the Vord as well as this city. Little did he understand things including Vord's past. He himself did not think that there were people out there who knew about Vord, even to the point of knowing his past.
Leon and Vord were just unmoved, silence was falling on both of them inside this room. The people outside seemed to hear a noise then immediately headed for Vord's room. So many warriors entered the room in panic then saw firsthand the current attack the Vord had blocked by Leon.
Of course they are difficult to believe and some consider that the Vord does not mean it. Soon after, Vord pulled back his hand and saw the horde of soldiers.
“What do you guys see?” A sharp gaze directed Vord at the soldiers. “Out ...”
With just a few words, the soldiers rushed away, except for one man, Sun. Vord did not care about the person's presence and immediately turned his gaze towards Leon. It seems that he did not counteract his punches could be withheld by Leon regardless of his seriousness or not.
“Vord ... You must give up escape.” The sentence does look like Leon is warning Vord, but it also means Leon is warning himself. He understands that when pride grows in him, overconfidence in the end only makes him lose his ability.
Everything was silent, the room seemed to have a high atmosphere to the point that Sun was sweating. Leon and Vord were staring at each other from eye to eye, both of them just flinching about to make a move.
