Chapter 285 - 285 Overbearing and Scary Murderous Aura

285 Overbearing and Scary Murderous Aura

Feeling the overwhelming pressure on his body, Randy’s body was as still as a mountain. His countenance was as calm as the lull on the surface of a calm river. However, even though he tried to remain calm, he couldn’t repress the annoyed frown that appeared on his face shortly afterward.

On the other hand, when the guard, who was expecting him to helplessly fall to his knees begging for mercy, saw his unfazed expression, he couldn’t help but feel surprised inwardly.

At the same time, the second guard noticed the frown on Randy’s face, and then exasperatedly shouted: “Ignorant fool! Why aren’t you kneeling down yet? Do you think you’re invincible just because you can defeat 20 Gladiators in a harmless and staged combat for training purposes? Let me tell you, you’re nothing but a piece of trash in our eyes! Kneel down right now and apologize to her Royal Highness, and we might just spare your ignoble life!”

“Please get out of my way while I’m being courteous.”

Randy ignored their actions and calmly spoke to them, suppressing the anger in his heart.

Bam!

The second guard took a step forward, pushed Randy’s shoulders with force, and then spoke in a mocking tone: “Or what? What are you going to do to us, huh? Beat us? How ridiculous!”

Then the first guard, who felt annoyed that he couldn’t pressure Randy to kneel down in front of him with just his oppressive aura, also strongly grabbed Randy’s other shoulder, attempting to force him to kneel down with brute strength as he coldly said: “Don’t overestimate yourself, kid!”

‘What the hell? He’s still not budging…’

.....

The first guard discovered that Randy’s body was unusually strong. He tried to force Randy to submit to his knees twice in a row with both his oppressive aura and raw strength, all of which ended in failure in both instances.

Then a realization dawned on him as he thought: ‘No wonder he could face so many people at once and still come out mostly unscathed. It was because of his high attributes of strength.’

‘Hah! That can easily be offset by enhancing my strength with mana! There’s no need to use my aura to pressure him then. I doubt he could match my strength, even if he also uses his mana to enhance his strength.’

Moments ago, Randy noticed that this particular guard was attempting to do something to him, but failed to achieve his goal. However, when Randy saw this particular guard deploying their mana into their arms, he immediately scowled in annoyance.

Displeased by their incessant hostility, he said: “What is wrong with you people and your hostility? I already apologized, and you’re still standing in my way? Although I said I came in peace and didn’t want to get involved with this world, that did not mean that I wouldn’t fight back if someone attempted to harm me or come after my life.”

He then coldly looked at them with a terrifying killing intent flashing in his eyes. At the same time, his whole aura began to transform into a pitch-dark and gloomy aura that gradually radiated a terrifying murderous aura. This particular murderous aura was something he had always concealed inside himself, as he didn’t know its origin despite it stemming from his body.

At this moment, all of that ominous and dark, murderous aura was on full display. Billowing outward, it slowly enveloped everything in the vicinity of the alley, including the living beings that were nearby.

Randy had not been in a good mood after his encounter with that mysterious young woman. To make matters worse, this group of people was trying to bother him for no apparent reason simply because they were royalty. Why would he care about their background when he wasn’t originally from their world? Of course, he wouldn’t care!

He couldn’t care less about their world or them if not because he wanted to adhere to their rules in order to avoid trouble. However, it seemed as though trouble would come to him either way. Moments earlier, he came face to face with that mysterious young woman, who made him feel true fear and helplessly for the first time since he had awakened.

It was hopeless to continue fighting her any further after a few exchanges between them. The only thing he could think of in the last exchange with her was to find a way to flee for his life.

The despair he felt was genuine and unconquerable. It was almost as though there was an invisible barrier between them. This invisible barrier made it so that he could not cause her any harm, regardless of speed, strength, or power.

Only his [Blood Authority] skill managed to stop her movements for a few moments during the battle. On the other hand, skills and abilities, such as his newly acquired [Blood Ray] skill, seemed very useless in front of her.

Randy wondered why that was the case, but it didn’t matter what the reason was, as he now knew what he had to do. He just needed to get stronger than his current self, to the point where he wouldn’t be killed, even if he wanted to die.

With that in mind, he thought of another method that he could use besides increasing his level through the power system of planet Acruxia.

Nameless Meditation Technique!

This technique was the mana training method of that Arch Sorcerer. He obtained it from the Black Tome not long ago. The specialty of this technique was that it could drastically increase the quality of the mana inside the body, and its purity and capacity were even higher than people of similar levels of power. Not to mention the bonus effect of increasing his affinity for mana as he trains his mana by following the procedure devised in the technique.

That was why he wanted to leave this place and get right to it without wasting any time. As for the first method of relying on the leveling system of planet Acruxia, he didn’t have to care about it if he couldn’t employ it without restrictions.

In reality, Randy wasn’t really furious at the Crown Princess and her entourage for getting in his way just now. Rather, he was angry at himself for thinking he had enough strength or for taking things for granted just because things were going smoothly.

He had obstinately wanted to rely on the system of the present world to get stronger. That was because it was much quicker and more practical than sitting in place to meditate for an unknown amount of time. However, in his attempt to shirk from using the slow method and seek the faster method, he failed to realize the importance of such a profound training technique.

Furthermore, he completely forgot that there was another method to get strong besides begging people to allow him entry to their Dungeons. However, rather than stating that he forgot, it was more appropriate to state that he didn’t want to think about the second method. After all, hunting in Dungeons to gain levels was easier and more efficient for his current goal.

Regardless, as he thought of his current weak self, he couldn’t wait to hole himself up in the Safe Room and then resume his mana training. He wanted to pick up where he left off the last time and dedicated himself to practicing the training method, yet he was being delayed by others.

He felt enraged and impatient, but he didn’t want the situation to escalate any further. Therefore, he thought of a crude solution to the problem at hand.

As he knew he couldn’t afford to pacify them slowly with any placating words he could come up with, he decided to release all the suppressed murderous aura in his body in an instant to get them to leave him alone.

The resulting outcome was the Crown Princess and her entourage being rendered immobile and powerless. Only their hands and feet were shivering. The way they shivered incessantly, it was almost as if a horrifying and huge monster was glaring at them, intimidating them with its formidable appearance and suffocating murderous intention.

‘W-What a scary and horrendous murderous atmosphere! Not even that person’s murderous aura was this terrifying!’

Only these thoughts coursed through the minds of the three of them as they broke out into cold sweats on their backs. At the same time, all the hairs on their skin stood on their end. They wanted to move but were restricted by the pressure coming from Randy’s overbearing aura.

The two guards took out their weapons and then managed to stand in front of the Crown Princess with much difficulty in order to shield her from harm. However, their two legs and arms were shaking with the long sword in their grasp, looking very unsteady and moving about without a proper target.

Meanwhile, Randy deliberated whether he should increase the pressure of his aura. His reason was that it would make it so that they wouldn’t have any thoughts of retaliating in some kind of way against him in the future. At the same time, he walked toward the Crown Princess who had a shocked and frightened expression on her pale face.

Randy had purposely lessened the pressure on her, as he wanted to try talking to her before anything else for that matter. He wanted her to tell her bodyguards to stop harassing him, or he would have no choice but to retaliate against them, including her, regardless of their backgrounds.

However, seeing him menacingly walking over to her, the Crown Princess thought he was trying to assault her out of revenge, and she angrily admonished: “S-S-Stand down! D-Don’t come any closer! I said don’t come any closer! Are you daring enough to lay your filthy hand on this princess?!”
