“… …”

His manner was almost bantering. He was in high good humor – and Liu Muxiao realized the reason why.

This time he can do anything he wants. Without someone obstructing him, without someone leaving him - the revenge from the past, he will also carry it on in this opportunity.

He promised that he won’t be doing something excessive --- meaning he won’t kill anyone, though, unless the situation deemed it necessary.

Liu Muxiao knows that she won’t be able to stop him and so, she could only let him be.

“That does fine, however, please reduce the casualties to a minimum, if possible.” Liu Muxiao sighed.

“So what are you going to do?” She eyed him, her glance troubled.

Allen waited a moment, wondering if she would say more or even worse argue with him. Instead, she consented and, strangely enough, Allen felt a sense of relief.

Gradually Allen began to relax.

“Young Master, I’m prepared to do anything!” Sun Lingling spoke her firm determination.

“So do I, young master.” Tang Yu said with a firm look as she said with certainty. “Just say a word and I will cross the sea of flames and climb the mountain of blades for you.”

The atmosphere instantly turned solemn and somewhat somber. Madam White and Li Meihua didn’t speak anything but the aura coming from them had already spoken for them.

Looking at them, Allen smiles.

“It’s not necessary…”

Allen reaches his hand and felt his face. With a grabbing motion, he took his ‘face’ off… no, the ‘face’ held by his hand, turned into a black plain mask.

Under the dumbfounded gaze of Sun Lingling, Liu Muxiao and Li Meihua who haven’t seen it before, Allen’s appearance slowly transformed.

In each side of his head, small curved horns pointing in front could be seen as well the tribal markings that reach his neck.

And most of all, the slender slim tail swaying behind him, gives off another kind of beauty and danger…

Everyone was left stunned and remained silent for a prolonged period of time.

At this moment, suddenly they felt a heavy pressure billow towards them, causing them to feel stifled.

"Soul... Suppression?"

Although they had experienced coercion before, at least they had the power to counter it or even endure it. After all, aside from Lei Meihua who was only a Lv7 Huli Jing, the three women were all returnee. Not to mention, for Madam White who was a peak Lv9 pawn monster.

They had lived two lives and so, their souls were stronger than normal. Normal coercion or soul based attack would usually be useless against them.

However, Allen’s was entirely different.

It was too strong that they were unable to withstand the pressure of the Soul Suppression which came from him!

"Ah!?"

Nearly the three women let out a flabbergasted gasp at the same time!

“Wushuang… that appearance…!?” Liu Muxiao who has managed to step out from her daze was wearing a dumbstruck expression. Her gaze alternately looks at him and then to the black plain mask he was holding.

Allen mulled over it for a while before saying, “Long story…”

Allen raised his free hand and called out his grimoire.

“Lan, you should have recovered now.”

Cryaaaaaaaa!!

The bronze book floating in front of Allen lit up and a piercing cry came out from it.

A blue light came out from the book, turning into a beautiful blue colored bird.

It was the [ Luan Eagle ].

The [ Luan Eagle ] flew in a circle before landing in front of Allen. It waved its wings at him as if it was trying to tell him its successful recovery.

Allen crouched down and stroke Lan’s head, giving the latter a pleasant feeling.

“Is that a Luan bird?” Liu Muxiao asked curiously.

“No, it’s a mixed breed. A [ Luan Eagle ]…”

“Hm…”

Allen stood up.

“[ Equip ] skill, [ Beast Armament ]!”

Cryaaaaaa!! When Allen touched Lan’s head, the blue bird gave a loud piercing cry and its entire body was enveloped in blue colored flames.

These flames run through Allen’s hand then to his entire body.

Wooosh! After a few minutes, the blue flames faded and gradually died down, leaving Allen.

The [ Luan Eagle ] couldn’t be seen anymore but instead, in Allen’s body was a beautiful blue colored mantle.

It was adorned with beautiful blue feathers and flame in a bird form motif was knitted at the back of the mantle.

“[ Beast Armament ]; [ Wings of Flames ]!”

It looked magnificent and state of the art but anyone could feel the danger it possesses--- especially those blue flames that appeared from time to time, it gives off a feeling that they would be burned to ashes in an instant just by looking at it.

Unlike Lightning’s gauntlet form, Lan took the form of a mantle.

Allen could feel his equip skill, already passed the necessary level to be able to use the [ Beast Armament ] and with his power from his devil transformation, it even boosted this skill, enabled him to easily use Lan’s power.

“What are you going to do now?” Liu Muxiao asked with a complicated expression. Allen’s transformation gave him too much shock that she doesn’t know how to react.

“Nothing…” a deep masculine voice, slightly different from the usual tone.

It was Allen’s.

When Allen turned around and faced her, her heart couldn’t help but hitch. Allen’s appearance right now could only be called devilishly handsome.

Her pulse beat rapidly at her neck, temple, heart, well… in any case everywhere.

“… I’ll just go give them a visit.” He grinned at her, displaying the bewitching smile that could make ladies foolishly giggle over.

Since this was his debut in this world, Allen wanted to set his prestige.

It might be rash, but with this, he would show the world that he wasn’t to be messed with.

He might be called a devil or demon along the way but this time, it was fine. After all, he was far different from the previous life.

His power already transcends humanity by a large margin.

In this age and time, nothing can stop him nor hurt him. Even if all the current organizations in the world gather together, he was confident enough to fight them!

Of course, this includes Mia and Alkrasha’s existence. Although not the largest but Mia held one of the strongest force in human world while Alkrasha possesses power and authority in the monster world.

With just these two, no matter how courageous one was, they would think twice before attacking him.

World! I have returned!!

Certainly, this could be said to be his real official return to the grand stage…

…. …

Crash!

A middle-aged man smashed a glass on to the floor as his face darkened and he snarled, “What just happened?”

In front of him were four men and women dressed entirely in black, kneeling.

“Say it again!!”

The middle-aged man’s expression was extremely dark, and his face twisted in anger.

Facing the man’s savage eyes, one of the men in black gulped, then stuttered, “M, master, t, that man isn’t human but a monster!”

He was the one kneeling in the foremost front.

“Killing him is nigh impossible!”

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth in extreme anger. He took the book beside him and throw it at the man angrily.

“I told you to kill him! What’s the point of sending all of you if you couldn’t kill a single person?!”

“But master…”

“Shut up!! I choose all of you because you said you are the strongest, but it seems like it was only all talk and boast! Get out of my sight!”

“You can’t blame them for this, father…” At this time, a voice came from behind the door.

A lady garbed in green entered the room.

“Xue Ling” The man frowned.

This man was certainly Xue Cangzhan- the current head of the snow family and Xue Ling’s biological father.

He was in his fifties but looked like he wasn’t even forty yet.

“That man is certainly a monster, whether its blade or bullets, it was all useless…”

“Impossible! There’s no such huma---”

“But he is!” Xue Ling snapped.

Xue Cangzhan listened to her daughter while frowning, his face incredibly terrifying.

The men in black all stared at the floor, afraid to even breathe.

Bang!!

Xue Cangzhan smashed his fist onto the table, causing everyone’s hearts to skip a beat. The pain in his fist simply couldn’t be compared to the shock and anger in his heart.

Xue Cangzhan looked up, a piercing look in his eyes, “If what you said is true, then looks like I underestimated that Ye Wushuang too much. I guess we need to lay low for now...”

“…Yes.”

He slowly stood up, and said in a low voice, “… you aren’t discovered … right?”

With that question, all the men in black violently trembled for a moment.

“Hm?” Xue Cangzhan frowned.

The man gritted his teeth, “We are not but…” He shot Xue Ling a glance.

But at this moment, before he could continue,

Boom!!

A loud thunder echoed outside.

The man couldn’t help but choked on his words. Whenever he heard the sound of thunder, he couldn’t help but remember the black youth’s appearance and that terrifying power…

In fact not only him, the bodies of his group also simultaneously trembled. Their faces paled as if they’re going to faint from fear, terrified that that abominable black youth might appear out of nowhere to kill them.

Allen had left too great of a shadow in their hearts.
