Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 223: Slash

”Whatʼs going on?” he asked out loud. He had never felt this sort of feeling ever before. He could tell that he wasnʼt really feeling it, but someone was projecting his feelings onto him… from very far away.

”Whatʼs wrong, Doctor Ning?” Lord Canon asked after seeing his exclamation.

”I— do not—” he stopped speaking. He suddenly thought of something. That thought terrified him. ”I- I need to go. I will come back later,” Ning said and ran out of the room before anyone could say anything.

As soon as he was out of sight, he vanished.

From what he knew, after the use of Supreme Domination, the one dominated was connected to you through an invisible bond. Sometimes, the subordinate could send messages through the bond if the connection was deep enough.

Right now, this was one of those situations. While his bond with Aegis wasnʼt deep enough to send messages, it was however deep enough to just send simple feelings.

So, after realizing that Aegis was in trouble, Ning went directly to him.

Ning appeared inside Famirʼs house and went to the room. However, no one was there. He went to the backyard, yet no one was there.

He then went outside and saw a scene that horrified him.

Fire raged everywhere he looked. Sounds of screams rang out from all directions. The village was under attack. He felt the same fear as he did back when Starsight burned in a similar way.

ʼMonsters… No.ʼ Ning thought of other possibilities and quickly realized the answer.

”Bandits.”

He took out his Spear and ran towards the village. The bandits had set the village on fire and attacked the people. The villagers had taken up what little arms they had and started to fight.

The outside of the village had little skirmishes. He only saw 2 bandits attacking 2 women who were trying to save themselves.

Ningʼs anger reached the highest it had in a long time. He dashed forward and threw his spear like a javelin. The spear skewered through both of the bandits, killing them at once.

He ran by the women, checked if they had any injuries, and picked his spear before walking forward.

As he went on, he could see half a dozen or so bodies along the way. While it wasnʼt on the same level as the one from the island, but it was still a sad sight to see. However, there werenʼt any more people here or any bandits.

”Whatʼs going on?” he wondered.

He saw another bandit trying to kill a man who only held pots and pans to protect himself. Ning used telekinesis and pulled the manʼs arms, legs, and head in 5 different directions and tore him into 6 different sections.

He saw another man trying to have his way with a woman he had pinned down. Ning teleported right next to him and cut off his privates. He then used telekinesis to shove the privates into his mouth and made his gag on it.

The man couldnʼt breathe as he choked on his own p*n*s and died. Ning helped the lady who was pretty shaken and proceeded on his way.

Ning went past a few more dead bodies until he reached the place that made the most noise.

Finally, he saw the reason why there werenʼt a lot of bandits everywhere. Dozens of bandits were gathered around a group of people in an arc and were attacking the group.

The only thing protecting them were his two beasts. However, all they could do was protect the people. The moment the two beasts left to attack, the bandits would attack the people.

After protecting for so long, the beasts were starting to get tired. They had to constantly move around to protect from any and all attacks, and that was very exhausting.

Famir and Mavenna were giving out orders and the beasts were following it to the best of their ability. The beasts couldnʼt even use Qi, so they were forced to just endure the attack without being able to send attacks back.

If not for that, Blue wouldʼve killed everyone by now.

Ning teleported to the middle of the encirclement and patted on his two beasts. ”You guys can rest. You did well,” he said as he took the beasts back into the beast space to rest and heal up.

The sudden disappearance of the beasts caused a massive opening in the group and the attacks would now get through them. The villagers shouted at the sight of stones, arrows, and all sorts of things flying their way.

However, before they could land, every single object coming towards their way, stopped in midair. Both the villagers and the bandits made sounds of shock and awe.

However, the feeling they got after that was completely different. While the villagers got hopeful, the bandits started feeling that they were in trouble.

The arrows and javelins that were thrown towards them suddenly turned around.

”A- An Aether User… they have an expert Aether user. Run!” A bandit shouted and turned around to run. However, Ning wasnʼt going to let them do that now.

He suddenly threw everything that was floating towards everyone from the bandit. All the bandits in the area were hit and incapacitated. They all fell to the ground with wounds all over their body. Some even died from the sharp arrows and javelins hitting them.

The remaining ones who could walk started to stand up to walk away. Ning had an answer for that too.

He made a horizontal slashing motion in front of him. Suddenly, a massive air slash appeared in front of him and flew out to the bandits.

Whether they were dead, immobilized, or running, the Air Cutter cut through every single one of them, killing them all in an instant.

There was no sound from the bandit side as they werenʼt able to make any.

There was no sound from the villagersʼ side as they were too stunned to make any.

Finally, Ning relaxed and looked back towards the group of villagers. That was when his relaxing heart sped up once again.
