Chapter 19 - Unexpected Victory
"Little brother, if you pretend that you did not see anything, I will let you go, what do you say? Otherwise.." The lanky man said in a threatening tone, and then he immediately exuded a killing intent towards Randy, attempting to scare him.
Sure enough, Randy shuddered as soon he felt the baleful aura washed over him. He immediately snapped out of his daze.
A moment later, he then cleared his throat and asked politely in a calm tone. "Otherwise what? You car thief!"
"Huh?!" The lanky man raised his eyebrows as he was very surprised by this young man's unexpected reaction despite him showing clear animosity towards him just now.
"Don't speak anymore, Uncle what are you doing to someone's car? And why are bleeding from your left shoulder, don't you know it's bad to leave your wound untreated? You might get infection this—" Randy asked in an irritated voice.
The lanky man was speechless by his questions for a while but as he saw that he kept on talking, he then cut the young man's speech before he carefully asked instead. "Don't tell me.. Is this perhaps your car?"
"That's right." Randy replied to him without a care.
"Then you have the key to this car with you, right?" The lanky man questioned further.
"That's right, no, It is a biometric fingerprint system car; there is no need for such thing, why do you ask?" Randy replied honestly and then asked in interest.
"Oh." The lanky man was very surprised by his honesty.
'Is he just na?ve or is he just an idiot' the lanky man silently thought.
Then he cleared his throat slightly and carefully asked again. "So what you're saying is that, If I happen to cut your hand and place it on the handle of this car, the door will open, right?"
"That's right, wait! What?! What do you mean?" Randy replied without thinking but then he suddenly realized what the other party was implying by saying such a thing.
Randy suddenly spoke in frightful tone. "What do you want to do? I'll have you know that my father is the Director of the Ministry of Education in this Sky Rise City. If you so much as touch a hair on my body, you won't have the time to regret your decision."
"Director of the Ministry of Education? So you're a rich young master, huh?" The lanky man pondered then he suddenly showed a cruel expression.
"Do I look like I give a shit about who your father is? As long I killed you and burn your entire body without leaving a trace of your existence, who would ever have find out?" The lanky man waved his hand dismissively and casually said to him.
Randy's face immediately turned pale after hearing the other party's words.
'It turns out this bastard was completely heartless. Too evil! He did not even appear to want to compromise. But that is good too, at least I won't feel anything after I deal with him. This fucker is a true villain.'
Boom!
All of the sudden, the lanky man's body suddenly exploded with overwhelming mana.
Just by standing there, his aura was steadily increasing without stopping.
At this moment, he had entered combat mode. With his experience, he could vaguely tell that this brat was definitely not simple.
He could feel a sense of uneasiness as he continued to talk to him.
And also, there was this inexplicable feeling he got from the brat in front of him that made him feel a cold sweat dripping down from his back.
And due to that, he decided to go all out from the beginning.
At this point, Randy cowardly took one step back when he saw the increasing aura around the lanky man, and he hurriedly spoke. "Oi, Oi, Are you for real? Can't we talk like civilized people? Why do you want to attack all of a sudden?"
"Hmph! Brat! Stop playing dumb! Do you think you can fool me? What are you hiding?" The lanky scoffed and then questioned.
"Huh? What am I hiding? What would I be hiding?" Randy displayed a confused expression before asking back.
The lanky man sneered and then replied. "Are you still not going to talk? Do you think an ordinary brat like you would be able to maintain their calm when faced with a crisis, like you are doing right now? If you don't speak then don't blame me for being ruthless—"
Boom!
The lanky man exploded with an even more suffocating mana that causes goosebumps to one's skin just from the pressure emanated from him as he prepared to use his skill at this moment.
Randy quickly reacted when he saw how serious the other day was being and he hurriedly spoke.
"Wait! Wait! I will say, I will say. Why don't we calm down for a bit? I will talk then, okay?" He said to him.
Hearing his words, the lanky man scoffed again and then he sneered before speaking. "I see that you don't plan on saying anything, then you leave me no choice but to kill you and then cut your hand to open this car's door."
"Ahhhh! Spare me!" Randy uncharacteristically screamed like a girl.
The lanky man spoke in derision, "Too late you brat, say your las— eh? What's going on?"
"Thud!"
At this moment, just as the lanky man was planning on attacking Randy with everything he had, he suddenly felt a slight dizziness, followed by a lightheadedness before abruptly falling to the ground helplessly.
"Phew.. That was close. I almost got killed just now." Randy sighed in relief after seeing that the lanky man was currently lying on the floor, unable to move any of his limps.
"Y-You fucking brat! What the fuck did you do?" The lanky questioned in a furious tone.
"Hehehe.." Randy only gave an evil contempt laugh, ignored his question and immediately activated his skill.
[Activating Assimilated Mode]
[Due to there being only one form of assimilated type, automatically activating the 'Werewolf King Of Wind' form]
[Do you want to fully activate this skill or partially activate it?] the mechanical voice prompted.
Randy thought for a bit then replied in his mind.
'Partially, 20% should be enough.'
As soon as he said so, Randy could feel the change happening to his body. historical
His hair was gradually turning silver moon white, his eyes now a yellowish-green color as it reflected the setting sun in the horizon.
There were even sharp claws protruding out of his neatly cut fingernails.
However, this time, his hair did not extend above his shoulders, instead it only maintained the same length as his original hair length, but it was no longer curly, rather his hair had straightened, making him look quite mysterious as he stood there.
Even his canine tooth in the upper and lower mouth elongated, making him look like a fierce wolf-like human.
"You.."
When the lanky man saw the sudden change in appearance of Randy, he was instantly taken aback but what surprised him even more was the sudden change in his aura.
Right now, he felt like would have still lost to this brat even if he was at his peak.
"Are you surprised? No need to be. Count yourself lucky because I am in a good mood today and so, I am not going to kill you. For now, I only needed the treasures that you have stolen. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me." Randy casually declared in a booming low voice that was unlike his original voice.
However to anyone who heard this voice, they would naturally be struck with fear and intimidated by the reverberation in his voice.
Even Randy was surprised by this change. Last time, he was so shocked by his transformation and his sudden awakening that he had subconsciously neglected the fact that even his very own voice had been changed after the transformation the last time.
".." The lanky man was speechless and only proceeded to look in shock at the young man, or is he even a young man? That intimidating voice is clearly not something that a brat could enact.
Perhaps, he belongs to some mysterious organization, and he took on this appearance to extort him of his treasures?
When the lanky thought of that, he suddenly felt dejected, even his eyes turned red with indignation.
How could he be so unlucky to run into such a big shot after eluding the police for so long.
He felt like all his efforts had been wasted, as right now, someone was about to take the fruit of his labor right in front of him.
Moreover, although he wanted to retaliate against the enemy, but he did not even know how the other party had attacked him just now.
If felt like he suddenly lost so much blood, causing him to feel dizzy and his initial preparation to attack him had been thwarted effortlessly.
Randy had no idea what the other party was thinking at all at this time, and he only question him .
"Where did you place the treasures? If you don't answer, then you will die!" Randy declared. His intimidating voice rang out.
Hearing this, the lanky man who was about find a way to escape gave up on his thoughts, and then he hurriedly spoke.
"Hold on! Don't attack! I have it right here with me, it is in my storage bracelet in my pocket."
"Hoh? You better not be planning anything. I can easily kill you before you even succeed, just so you know." Randy's concentrated before he spoke in his booming and fear striking intimidating voice, making him sound more threatening to the ears of the lanky man.
"Y-Yes, yes, I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare.." The lanky man spoke in a respectful tone as he banged his head that was slightly raised from the ground on the floor repeatedly.
