"P-Please s-stop this."
"I''m begging y-you... Please stop."
-Bam!
-Thwack!
"Ahh!"
"Aha"
"Shut up, it''s your fault that you tried to act high and mighty in front of me."
Blood wasing out of every inch of the bodies of Caster and Alex. Their faces have ck bruises, a nose broken and a few teeth out of their mouth.
Also, my shadow bound at least fractured a few bones too.
In short, after this, they will never try to mess up with me.
"Tell me, will you evere near me or my family?" I asked in a low menacing tone, sending shivers down their bodies.
Both of their body trembled with fear, fear that is me.
Hahaha, I love this feeling. If I do not control myself I might send them to do their death.
"We will note near you or any of your family. Please let us go!" both of them said at the same time.
They were asking for mercy, should I just let them go? After all, it''s been 5 minutes since Lily is alone sitting at the park bench.
I nce at my shadow and with a mentalmand, I undo the shadow binding.
-Thud!
-Thud!
Both of them were thrown back to the ground as I closed my [Shadow Control] Skill.
As the shadowy restraints dissipated, Caster and Alex copsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Their battered forms reflected the consequences of their actions, and the fear in their eyes intensified.
"Consider this a lesson. If you ever cross my path again, the consequences will be much worse," I warned, my tone firm.
The two struggled to get up, their limbs sore and bruised. The arrogance that once defined them had crumbled, reced by a newfound understanding of their vulnerabilities.
"Now, get out of here," Imanded, my gaze unwavering.
Without a second thought, Caster and Alex stumbled away, leaving the secluded area of the park. The echoes of their pained groans lingered, a reminder of the consequences they had brought upon themselves.
Turning away from their retreating forms, I made my way back to where Lily was waiting. As I approached, she looked up with a mixture of concern and curiosity.
"Big brother, what happened? Are they okay?" she asked, her innocence contrasting with the recent confrontation.
I crouched down, offering a reassuring smile. "Don''t worry, Lily. They won''t bother us again. How about this let''s go to Father Guild and have some fun?."
She nodded, a sense of trust in her eyes. "Yup let''s go there, I haven''t visited Father Guild in a very long time."

-nk!
"Ahh, fuck! When the hell did that wimp be this much stronger!" Alex cursed as he threw the [Healing potion] ss after drinking it.
"True, I also can''t believe it, I used to beat up that loser but that bastard became strong this much in a small amount of time." Caster also said as he sat beside Alex.
The wounds on their body gradually fade away after drinking the [healing potion] but pains still linger in their body.
"What should we do? We just can''t let that fucker walk away from this after he beat us up." Alex said with gritted teeth, Alex did nothing but just up his anger.
After all, Lucas is strong, He is stronger than both of them. He also knew that Lucas hadn''t shown his full strength.
That''s why Alex could do nothing to him after all he doesn''t want that beating up from Lucas again.
"I have an Idea. How about we call the boss, After all, I''m sure he also wants to meet up with Lucas after this much time." Caster said as he took out his phone and started to type the number on it.
Alex''s eyes gleamed with excitement.
"Hurry up and call him, I can''t wait to see that Idiot getting beat up by our gang."
-Ring!, -Ring!, -Ring!
-Click!
-What is it?"
A deep voice sounded from the other side of the phone.
Caster took a deep breath as he tried to control his breathing.
"Sir, it''s me, Caster."
-Why did you call?"
"It''s about Lucas he is back in City."
-Why did you call?"
"It''s about Lucas. He''s back in the city."
A pause followed, the silence pregnant with anticipation. The deep voice on the other end of the line remained unreadable.
"Lucas, you say?" The voice finally responded, a hint of interest seeping through.
"Yes, sir. He''s... different. Stronger. We thought you might want to know," Caster exined, choosing his words carefully.
There was a contemtive silence before the voice spoke again. "Bring him to me. I want to see this for myself."
Caster exchanged a nce with Alex, both realizing the gravity of the situation. The boss wanted a direct encounter with Lucas, and that meant they had to lure him into a trap.
"Understood, sir. We''ll handle it," Caster affirmed, his tone resolute.
"Make sure you don''t mess this up. Bring him to the warehouse near the old docks. I''ll be waiting," the voice instructed before ending the call.
Caster pocketed his phone, a sinister grin spreading across his face. "Looks like we have a n. Let''s see how invincible Lucas is."
Alex, still nursing his wounds, nodded in agreement. The prospect of revenge-fueled their determination, overshadowing the recent humiliation they had faced.

Meanwhile, Lucas who was unaware of this stood in front of his father''s guild.
"It should be this one"
Arriving in front of arge skyscraper that was about 200 meters in height, and had about 80 floors, I brought Lily inside of the building with me.
From what I had been told by my parents, the whole building was used as the base for their guild Sunless.
Although they didn''t own the building, they managed to rent it out for a reasonable monthly price.
Arriving in front of the elevators at the entrance of the building, I pressed the button and called for one. As I waited for the elevator to arrive, I took a nce at my surroundings.
Surrounded by ss, the interior of the bottom floor was brightly lit by the sun in the sky. White marble floor covered the entire pavement, and people moving to and fro inside the building were a constant sight.
