Chapter 77- (t.i.tle at the end of the chapter)

The words echoed in the whole room, reverberating as if they had echoes of their own. The man's face grew even paler as he stared directly at the white mask.

Who was the Black Phantom? Even the newest people to join the underworld would've heard that name at least once simply because he was the monster that feared no one and was feared by everyone.

He was the ideal hitman in every sense of the word. In fact, his methods were being taught to new hitmen with how innovative they were. His stories were also told akin to fairytales.

So, in other words, the Black Phantom is a living legend in the eyes of the underworld. However, that living legend would turn into a nightmare if he puts his eyes on you and the man pinned down was now the target of that very same monster.

n.o.body would be able to understand what he was feeling at the moment.

"You asked me why I don't feel fear, didn't you?" Kai asked coldly. "That answer wasn't the truth: I don't feel fear not because my soul was used in a good way but because there is nothing for me to fear. The Guild, Divinity, hitmen, the underworld, I don't fear any of you. Yet, you lot try and annoy me. I've had enough."

Saying that Kai's grip on the man's neck strengthened, making the latter start choking.

"Since the Guild wants to play. Fine, I will finish what I should've done a few years ago." Kai's tone was serious. He was blatantly threatening the Hitman Guild in front of an executive and four Executioners.

"Let's not rush things… Agent 0, you know that this is a huge mista-"

"Mistake? No, this isn't a mistake. This is what I had to do before leaving but thought it would be a waste of time and that will start with everyone in this room. None of you will leave it alive."

V frowned harder as he felt anger rising in his head. Fighting the Black Phantom will be a disaster especially when he had easily beaten 3 Executioners with a simple hand gesture.

"However, before that, who is the High Officer that wanted Eva's talent?" He asked the man.

Even though Kai asked him, he already knew the answer. All the information he wanted was sealed and he can't get to them. However, his intention wasn't to get an answer but to make the other party through that small device hear him.

"Tsk! This is enough, Agent 0!! Do you think we will just stand and let you do whatever you want?" V yelled angrily as he unleashed his aura.

The whole room shook violently as the walls started cracking.

"Ara ara~ This ice is really tough~"

*CRACK*

With a swing of her arm, the ice started cracking before her arm was completely freed.

"f.u.c.k SAKE!!!! I WILL f.u.c.kING KILL YOU!!! *PTUH*" Spitting blood from his mouth, Z stood up and cracked his neck. That hit was akin to a train smashing his face but it didn't deal a lethal blow to him.

"I'm a disappointment. So much so that my won scythe decided to hit me. Sigh, the air is wasted on my lungs." Y's face looked even gloomier as he touched his chest where a huge injury could be seen.

But, he still picked up his weapon and aimed it at Kai. "I will definitely try my best now."

Each one of them focused their auras on Kai, pressuring him violently. Any other person in his place would've been crushed immediately but Kai looked no different than before.

Instead, he casually moved his hand and pulled out his sword. The dark blade appeared akin to a black hole with how dark it was.

The moment the sword fully left the sheathe, the whole room was submerged in a weird coldness as if they were inside a freezer.

"Attack him!" V yelled.

Immediately, the four Executioners dashed toward him from all angles. They closed the distance in a split second and attacked at the same time.

Kai's face didn't change as he flipped the sword in his hand and channeled his Origin power to the sword.

'Time to show your worth again, Wretched Heart.' Closing his eyes, Kai stabbed the sword into the ground.

"Anti-Talent." The moment he said those words, darkness started oozing out of the sword and spreading on the ground quickly. In a mere second, it covered the room, including the Executioners. Darkness loomed over the place as if the devil himself had engulfed them within the palms of his hands.

"HUH?!! WHAT IS THIS?!!" Z, who was the first to reach Kai, felt something odd. This weird substance that was crawling up his leg suddenly made him feel extremely weak. His origin power suddenly vanished completely.

The others experienced the same thing as their bodies refused to use Origin anymore or unleash their talents. Everything happened so suddenly that they couldn't even react in time. The black substance had already engulfed their bodies.

'What is this ability?! My powers are gone!' V's face turned colder and immediately tried to retreat. Something was very wrong with that black sword.

"It's over." Murmuring such words, Kai's body vanished as he appeared behind Z and stabbed him in the back, piercing his heart before he pulled the sword out and vanished again before he stabbed Y's throat from the side.

"BLURGH!!" The gloomy man spat out blood as his eyes widened. Kai's sword had destroyed his throat. Meanwhile, the latter was already aiming for the last target.

His other hand moved at the same time and pulled his revolver before he fired it at X. The bullet pierced the woman's skull and exploded, turning her brain into a mushy paste. Everything happened almost instantly.

When the clock ticked, Kai was already back where he was before. Albeit, this time, behind him lay three people, oozing blood from multiple parts of their bodies. The only one left was V. However, after what he saw, he might as well be dead.

His mouth opened and closed as he looked at the three dead people with shock in his eyes. Everything happened too fast. A second didn't even pa.s.s and the three were already dead. No, it wasn't even about speed, these were Executioners, for G.o.d's sake!

In terms of strength alone, they could easily be in the top 50 hitmen. They had been in the business for decades and had the experience to back their strength so they weren't some measly targets. However, the Black Phantom toyed with them as if they were nothing.

Their deaths were a huge disaster for the Guild. After all, there were only 26 Executioners and three of them were eliminated, cutting a big chunk of the Executioners' prowess.

However, this wasn't V's problem right now. He had a totally different question in mind.

"Why… did you not kill me?" He asked.

The latter gave him a glance before his eyes returned to the man beneath him. Then, he aimed the revolver at his skull.

V watched the scene silently, his face was dark and his complexion was as pale as a piece of paper.

Seeing the sheer difference between them in strength, V lost hope in being able to do anything even before he did anything. It was simply soul-crushing. The Black Phantom ruthlessly destroyed his will to fight or take any action. That kind of monstrosity only a few had.

Beating someone is not that hard. But, destroying one's will especially someone like V was extremely hard. It didn't simply require strength. It required ruthlessness and fear far more than anything else.

To make him think 'I have no hope in doing anything.' That was Kai's most horrifying trait and one of the main reasons why he became a legend. If he wanted to, he could make his victim willingly accept death.

That was… the Black Phantom.
