Chapter 577 Revenge?
"Dax, you don't know me, but I know you well," Vicente said with a look that was a mixture of anger and satisfaction.
Taking revenge for his mother's death wouldn't bring her back. But it would bring her justice, and he would feel less weight on his shoulders by eliminating the jerk that caused his family's suffering.
It was a son's duty to take care of his parents and bring justice in their name!
This satisfied Vicente, even though he knew he would still be living without his mother and father after taking care of Dax and Malik.
"About six years ago, you faced an enemy in the Scott Province of the Seidel Kingdom. On that day, a carriage full of weak and innocent people was passing underneath where you and Malik were fighting."
As Vicente spoke, Dax narrowed his eyes and remembered that day.
He hadn't just fought Malik once in Scott Province. They had fought three times over three days, and the last battle between them had ended in Dax's victory.
Malik didn't die, but he escaped badly wounded. Since then, Dax had received no news of his rival leaving the Fallen Angels' headquarters.
As for himself, he had won the battle but suffered injuries that took him more than a year to recover from. Fortunately, after his recovery, he found an opportunity for advancement and reached the level of a Sky Sovereign.
Vicente continued. "In that carriage was a family of 5, or rather 6. Of these 6, only 4 survived, one of whom was deaf and another blind." He said as he made signs with his fingers to show Dax what had happened.
It wasn't hard for Dax to understand that people who were important to the young Earth Sovereign had probably suffered the consequences of his fight with Malik.
"Brat, what happened to those people is not my fault! I fought Malik! If something happened to third parties, it was just a terrible coincidence!" Dax shouted angrily, seeing that his wife and son were killed for something so small.
"A coincidence?" Vicente raised his tone as his aura grew stronger. "Among the victims were my mother and the baby in her womb. My older sister went blind, and my younger sister went deaf. Do you think it was just a coincidence?"
"Tsk! Don't give me that shit. Why didn't you protect them since you're so strong?" Dax shouted.
He felt no guilt for the deaths he might have caused along his path to this day. He honestly didn't intend to cause the deaths of weak magicians and believed that it wasn't his fault.
Not only fights between powerful magicians could cause accidents like the one that happened to Vicente's family. Sometimes, natural phenomena could trigger reactions that could lead to disaster for many families.
Would this young man blame nature and fight mana if his family had died because of something like that?
"I was in that carriage but hadn't awakened my powers yet," Vicente said as Dax's expression changed.
"Oh? It looks like that was very good for you, brat! That incident made you incredibly determined and got you to the 4th stage in what? Two or three years?" Dax laughed mischievously.
"But you shouldn't have dragged my family into this, you little shit! Now I have to eliminate a magical genius!"
Saying these words, Dax moved, his four pentagrams, one orangey-red, one orange, one yellow, and one green, appearing one after the other, while parts of a huge skeleton appeared behind him to attack Vicente.
Vicente didn't move as his pentagrams appeared, and soon, the look on Dax's face changed again, this time into absolute shock.
At the sight of a yellowish-orange pentagram and two green ones, the middle-aged-looking man couldn't help but open his eyes and mouth wide.
"What?" He exclaimed in surprise, not expecting Vicente to be so monstrous.
"Dax, you're wrong," Vicente calmly said as he raised one of his hands in the air, making Dax feel his whole body grow heavier while the armor suddenly grew tighter.
"You are not the one who will kill someone. I am the one who will do it! I killed your wife and son so you could feel a little of what I felt when I lost my mother. But I also eliminated your friends Caleb and Chase. Finally, I will go after your mistress, Eloise, so don't worry, everyone you care about will die and go to the same place as you!" The look in Vicente's eyes became as dark as night, while the feeling in the surroundings became even dimmer.
Vicente didn't use his negative elements, but as he gave his hate speech, he couldn't help but bring the negativity of the surroundings closer to him.
Dax felt the hairs on his body stand up as he realized he was facing a monster capable of killing him.
Unfortunately for him, it was too late. Being too close to Vicente, his body was almost completely immobilized by the metals in his cells that Vice manipulated to prevent him from moving.
Amid the feeling of being face to face with death, he couldn't concentrate on the fact that the person in front of him had killed almost everyone he cared about and was still planning to deal with his lover.
He could only stare at Vicente in horror, watching the malicious smile on the young man's face grow as the armor on his body began to suffocate him.
Vicente was in no hurry to kill this person quickly. As he used Dax's armor to eliminate this man, he acted as cruelly as he could, letting his enemy feel his own body being crushed as he watched the smiling face of the enemy who would kill him.
'Old Torne, can I guarantee that he will become a ghost?' Vicente asked with something in his mind.
'I can try something. But it's not guaranteed. What do you have in mind?' Torne asked while he couldn't help but feel a chill running through his core.
'If this guy turns into a ghost, I'll have him attack his own organization while we're on the run.' He got right to the point.
His words to Dax weren't entirely true. He had no intention of going after Eloise alone. He had even thought about killing this woman to make Dax suffer, but on second thought, he wanted someone else to suffer for this person's death.
He wasn't sure if Eloise would fulfill this mission, but he was willing to bet on her as he didn't want to get into deeper problems with the Bone Mountains.
He was strong now but not strong enough to challenge a sect the size of the Bone Mountains on his own.
So Torne understood what his master wanted and soon left Vicente's body to help him achieve his goals there with Dax's death.
