The Second Coming of Gluttony Chapter 250:
Chapter 250 . Eva’s Night (5)
He wasn’t like this from the beginning . The reason everything turned out like this resulted from an unavoidable incident .
Was it in the Neutral Zone? As the treasure hunt came to a close, people had split into two groups, and one group had suddenly attacked the other . They were trying to steal coins as they didn’t have enough to pass the stage .
Sombat La-ongmanee was among the group that was attacked . In the confusion of the moment, La-ongmanee subdued and strangled a teenage youth who had charged toward him .
He didn’t remember what happened too well . He only remembered the youth’s eyes as grit and spite disappeared from within to be replaced by bitter regret and helplessness .
When the situation was over and La-ongmanee regained his clear mind, he had already strangled the unknown youth to death .
Just like that, La-ongmanee committed his first murder . At that moment, he was in too much of a daze to think . He remembered trudging up to the portal, paying the passage fee and entering the Neutral Zone .
But the sensation of strangling a teenager remained on his hands, continually haunting him . No, saying it haunted him was a bit misleading .
His hands quivered, his breathing got rough, and his heart thumped with excitement . It was hard to see this as a sign of guilt .
It was more like ecstasy .
Moreover, whenever he remembered the teenage youth’s eyes rolling backward in his final moments, his heart palpitated and his lower body rose up .
When La-ongmanee realized this, he opened his eyes to the act known as murder .
After familiarizing himself with Paradise, he led the way in Eva’s power grab and committed more murders . But no matter how many he killed, he was only left with an unknown sense of emptiness . He couldn’t feel the same sensation he felt when he committed his first murder .
La-ongmanee found the reason in the nature of Earthlings . Strictly speaking, when Earthlings died in Paradise, they never really died .
They only lost their memories and were revived on Earth .
Although many of them committed suicide, unable to overcome the gap in their memory and the sense of loss, that was another matter altogether .
Killing with his own hands and watching the process of someone losing their life completely— that was what La-ongmanee truly wanted .
In other words, his targets had to be those who treated Paradise as their home .
Of course, that didn’t make him kidnap Paradisians . With juicy targets among the foreign races, he didn’t need to stick his neck out and court unnecessary danger .
Although both acts were illegal, messing with the Federation was far less dangerous . After all, all he had to do was buy already captured foreign races .
“Fufufufu . ”
Letting out an insidious laugh, La-ongmanee slowly reached his hand out and affectionately caressed a boy hanging on the wall .
The Sky Fairy was motionless . Although faint breathing sounds could be heard, he must have fainted as his entire body was limp .
“Good, very good . ”
Gently stroking the scratches on the boy’s pale-white skin, La-ongmanee said, laughing .
“Let’s have fun for a long time, little cutie . ”
And looking back, he gave a delighted smile .
Royal Pattaya’s secret workroom . Only a few of the organization’s executives knew about this workroom, and they avoided coming to this place knowing what it was used for .
Right, this place was a ‘gallery’, where La-ongmanee placed the ‘artworks’ he finished .
Leaning on a table where torture equipment was placed, La-ongmanee took out a cigarette and lit it . Then, looking at the artwork he was sculpting, he smiled in satisfaction .
Just as he began to take off his pants, enjoying the heat rising from his body… CLUNK!
“B-Big problem!”
Someone threw the door open and fell on the ground while rushing inside . La-ongmanee, who was in the middle of taking off his pants, paused awkwardly and frowned .
“You son of a bitch, who…”
He failed to finish, ‘Who allowed you to come in!?’ when he turned and looked at the man . His subordinate was looking up at him, one of his arms missing and tears flowing down his face .
“You . ”
“T-The auction house was attacked!”
La-ongmanee furrowed his brows .
“And, and…!”
Seeing the man who couldn’t continue his words, La-ongmanee was convinced that something huge had happened . Pulling his pants up, he rushed out of the secret room .
As he had built this place deep underground, he had to climb quite a few stairs to get upstairs . And the more he walked, the more he could hear the faint sound of the disturbance going on outside .
As he finally left the basement and opened the door leading outside…
Kwang! A strong explosive sound struck his face . Turning around reflexively, La-ongmanee narrowly opened one of his eyes .
What first entered his line of sight was a group of his subordinates running away left and right as well as a group of six people cutting straight through the path from the shattered main entrance .
A round of battle must have taken place already as about a dozen men were already lying unconscious on the ground .
There was no need to ask . They were under attack .
La-ongmanee studied the situation and asked quietly .
“What’s going on? There are only six of them!”
“We don’t know!”
“What?”
“We don’t get it! We really don’t! Those crazy **** suddenly barged in! Even though we pounced at them with superior numbers…!”
The subordinate who rushed up behind him whined . It was hard to make out what he was saying, but it was hard to blame him . The organization had more than ten times the number of attackers but were being beaten helplessly .
To make matters worse, the Archers, who were trying to support from the back, suddenly had their heads twisted or their arms pulled out, dying horrible deaths .
Unless it was some magic spell they were unaware of, they really didn’t know how to explain this bizarre phenomenon . Although a black smoke was circling around, no one thought much of it given what they were facing at the moment .
La-ongmanee gritted his teeth and mumbled .
“…Where’s Jirayu Matthew?”
“H-He won’t pick up our call!”
“That **** donkey in heat…”
La-ongmanee clenched his teeth and took a deep breath .
“Bring that **** here this instant! And Contact the Ochoa Cartel . Now!”
“Y-Yes, sir!”
The subordinate quickly scurried off .
‘Damn it, to a mere group of six… . ’
La-ongmanee screamed at the group of subordinates that were staggering back in fear .
“You pathetic pieces of shits!”
The steps halted . Not just the subordinates’, but also the gazes of the attackers fell on La-ongmanee .
‘Tsk . ’
La-ongmanee was an Earthling who, in his early days, had experienced gang fights and street fights . At the very least, he knew how important momentum was in a fight .
At this rate, it seemed that Royal Pattaya would really lose everything .
And thus, he acted unperturbed and slowly walked down the stairs . Although his eyes were full of killing intent, he smiled and walked calmly .
Then, he stopped in front of a young man with a fair complexion . As they had quite a bit of a height difference, he had to tilt his head up .
The two men’s gazes met . After a brief lull, La-ongmanee casually spoke .
“We’ve got a guest . ”
“… . ”
“A **** guest who threw all manners out the window . You dare to act like this here? Do you know where this is?”
“Sombat La-ongmanee . ”
Seol Jihu spoke quietly .
“You should have bought a Sky Fairy at the auction house today . ”
La-ongmanee raised an eyebrow . He then caught sight of an adult Sky Fairy standing behind the young man, clasping her hands together and looking over with a worried expression .
As soon as he saw her, he understood how this event came to be .
“Ah~”
Opening his eyes wide, he wore a mocking smile .
“You see~”
“Bring him . ”
Seol Jihu cut him off in a commanding tone . La-ongmanee snorted .
“And if I do?”
“Then I’ll let you die a peaceful death . ”
La-ongmanee opened his mouth wide .
“Haha… hahahaha… . ”
Furrowing his brows, he tilted his head back to laugh . When he raised his arms, Hugo also raised his axe, signaling that he would go in for the kill if La-ongmanee did anything funny .
“Sir La-ongmanee!”
“Be careful…!”
As the surroundings became noisy, Chohong smirked . Since they had just been beaten one-sidedly, she understood why these subordinates were standing back . But it was still funny that they could only yack on when their leader was in danger .
“Shut it! You shameful bastards!”
La-ongmanee looked around and shouted, instantly shutting up the murmurings . After smacking his lips, he placed his hand on Seol Jihu’s shoulder .
“You’re quite tenacious, my friend . ”
Along with a strange cackle, he nodded his head as if to approve of Seol Jihu’s action .
“Right, that’s how you should be . To live in this perilous world, you need to have some courage! I like you . ”
Speaking with a croaky voice, he smacked Seol Jihu’s shoulder heartily .
“But you know…”
He suddenly gripped tightly, his expression turning serious .
“You gotta watch who you’re messing with . You can’t go around barking wherever you want . ”
“… . ”
“At the very least, you should have come talk to me first . Who knows whether I would have handed him back to you? How can you expect good treatment if you don’t treat others nicely? Right?”
Patting Seol Jihu’s cheek, La-ongmanee revealed his yellow teeth .
“They say ignorant people don’t know how to fear the great… haa . ”
He took his hand off and put it on his waist . Spitting on the ground, he nodded his head, speaking as if he was being generous .
“Alright! I’ll give him back to you! You even brought another Sky Fairy for sympathy . I’m not so cold-hearted . Wait just a moment . ”
With that, he turned around and stomped into the building . By the time he came out, he had a couple of spherical objects underneath his armpits, dripping with an unknown liquid .
“Here you go . Catch . ”
He threw one of the short ball-like objects towards the youth . Soaked in the unknown liquid, it rolled on the ground, wetting it, before reaching Seol Jihu’s feet .
It wasn’t a Sky Fairy no matter how he looked at it .
“Not him? Then what about this?”
Another one rolled forward .
Checking his feet, Seol Jihu’s eyes narrowed . Judging by the thing’s ears, it must be a Sky Fairy .
The problem was that only its head was remaining . Furthermore, it was so awfully damaged that it was hardly noticeable . Seeing as how it hadn’t decomposed that much, La-ongmanee must have kept it in a special embalming solution .
The mother Sky Fairy who followed Seol Jihu from the auction house fell on the ground, limp . Then, even with her sick body, she crawled forward with widened eyes .
“Ah… . ”
Shake, shake . With trembling hands, she scraped up the bodiless head .
“Ah… ah… . ”
She uttered meaningless sounds, her face clearly at a loss for what to do . In truth, one could only barely distinguish the head’s race . There was no way of knowing who the head belonged to .
“AAAAAAAAAAH!”
In the end, she clutched her head and wailed .
“Why are you crying?”
La-ongmanee looked at the wailing Sky Fairy and asked shamelessly .
“Take a closer look . What, you don’t think it’s him? I have more . Do you want me to bring them too? Or are you crying because you’re too touched? Huhuhuhu!”
He giggled in joy, feeling refreshed after dealing a good blow .
“What are y’all doing? Shouldn’t you be applauding at this touching reunion?”
He clapped loudly while cackling . Then, he suddenly stopped and furrowed his brows . There was a reason he put on this show . By now, his subordinates should have regained their confidence and spirit, clapping loudly and laughing along with him .
Looking around left and right, La-ongmanee’s expression soured . His subordinates all backed off in fear with expressions that seemed to say, ‘We’re fucked’ .
“You…!”
At the same time, a voice rumbled out in front of him, boiling like lava that was on the verge of erupting .
“Son of a biiiitch…!”
As La-ongmanee looked back at the man, feeling his piercing gaze—
“Keuk!”
Lightning flashed in front of him .
An instant attack .
He didn’t even see what exactly did him in .
Only, his eyes suddenly got hot .
As La-ongmanee staggered backward, the only thing he saw was Seol Jihu pulling his arm back fiercely .
“You…!”
Craaaaack! Before the sentence even finished, La-ongmanee’s nose bridge was completely smashed in . The pain only came afterward .
“Uwaaaaah!”
La-ongmanee fell backward, shrieking in pain . Clutching onto his nose, he flopped around like a fish .
A rough kick followed suit . The moment Seol Jihu’s foot dug into La-ongmanee’s stomach, his eyes split open .
“Keuk! Uwuuuuk!”
Along with a dying scream, he vomited . But the kicks didn’t end there .
Twice, thrice… The fourth must have carried some mana as it lifted La-ongmanee into the air and threw him on to the stairs .
