"You've got pursuit." It was a whisper, enough for Leon to hear. There is a saying, hope do not come in peace every time. It hit like a truck most of the time. It made the man pause from eating but continued later on like nothing happened. Up ahead rows of trees are visible and when Leon passes by a few, he sharply made a turn into one and vanished. This way he could observe his opponent and gain advantage from them. 
 
A few moments had passed and a group of people came out of the trees at the same spot from where Leon got lost. 
 
"Where did that one had gone? I'm sure I saw him clearly!" A thin bony man screams while still pointing at the tree that they last spotted Leon. A man with a tied white hair smack his head before he put his index finger on his mouth and motioned the man to stop from talking. Another one arrived and all of this were being watched by none other than, Leon. 
 
---
 
"Why are you watching them and not run? Aren't you afraid of them?" Mint said to Leon that is standing on a branch of tree with his perfect balance. Leon sniggered and folded his arms. Scared? Him? By these mere bandit? Leon wanted to laugh.
 
"If I am afraid, I would have not watch them from here. There is one more rat that's not crawling out of her spot. Maybe she is hoping that this group of men would get beaten first before she could launch an assault. That is clever but she bumped into the wrong person." Mint could tell that there is something different from the way Leon is behaving right now. He almost felt like a different person but she categorized it as him passing his boredom which is nothing wrong in her eyes. Yes. Mint just watch how the scenes unfold.
 
Leon was about to use his system but realizing that Mint is present, she might feel something if he tried to execute it and to soothe his worries the system popped up with this message.
 
『System N-000 will be on ghost mode.』
 
Leon smiled and then went down from the tree with light feet. He waited for a few more minutes before he reappeared again not that far from the tree that he disappeared into. A suppressed gasp make Leon looked behind and all he saw was a row of trees that evidently scattered around. Not that long a man appeared beside him with a sharp blade pointing at his neck, touching the pulsating vein that can make him instantly bleed. He remained calm. He doesn't want to end the fun just yet. What will happen to the plan he had in his mind if he wouldn't execute it? The audience might die from boredom. That can't be. He should be the one to kill them. He focuses his attention towards the man before him. The man smiled and it made Leon annoyed.
 
"Look what we have here. Aren't you a little lost here?" Yellowish with uneven rows of brined teeth makes Leon felt disgusted. He looks like an unsanitized person that is common during the apocalypse. If the lowest rank were of seen as someone unhygienic becuase of what there situation is these people chose to be like this which makes Leon felt really annoyed with. 
 
"Brother, he seems too frighten to even talk! Haha! Your greatness is that good and can make even this money bag unable to talk." This one looks like a mop head with its hair close enough to a used mop. The smell is stinging Leon's nose as well. He couldn't help but cover his nostrils which agitated the other party. 
 
"OHOY! You sensitive bastards that doesn't know filth really is making me mad! Just because you didn't have the taste of what condition we've been living and you acting like a bitch?! Che!" He spat right in front of Leon but he is agile enough to dodge it. That made the other two wary of him. Leon change his mind. These idiots are not just noobs that will victimize anyone. They hunt carefully but sadly, they chose the wrong person this time. 
 
"Aren't you an agile fellow hmm? The more of a reason that we should make this quick. Hehehe! Boys!" While still pointing his dagger towards his neck the other two revealed their weapons. One with a battered up gun and the other looks similar to that glowing sword that every kid in his generation been pining over to have. Leon whistled and they thought he was going to surrender but instead Leon went and grab for the arm that is holding the dagger and then gripped his wrist hard that made the guy loose his grip towards the weapon, causing it to fall. 
 
"What the he----capture him!" While still in pain he snatches his hand from Leon's grip and let his other brothers to attack Leon. But that's just for vain. Leon snap his wrist first and he cried like a baby. 
 
"You sly shiiit!" The ugliest swung his blade and the glowing blade sizzles upon making contact to the leaves that had fallen from the tree. Leon bended his back almost half of his original height. The sword passed through him and he could feel the intense heat. Leon thought that the system cannot be access during its ghost mode that's why he bended his knees before pulling his head back and stretches his legs to land a hit on the opponent's thigh. His attack didn't stop from that and he gestured his hand like he was about to push something and then with the impact, the sword that is stretch forward got loose from the opponent's hand and that made him panic, causing for it to cut his limbs and the man writhes in pain.
 
"AAAAAAAH MY LIMBS!! WAAAAAAH BROTHER! CHOP HIM TO PIECES!!!! CHOP HIM!!!! AAAAAAAAH!" The other one that is holding a battered gun quickly pointed it to Leon that is already looking at him which surprises the man and shoot it without thinking. 
 
It happen fast and a shout even heard. 
 
But their attention were all focused to Leon who is not moving from where he was standing. But that didn't survives Leon's hearing. He had been looking for that other person. All of these is for him to lure the rat out. Leon succeeded.
 
"Trying to resist is just an empty thrashes you bastard! Hey! You look if his stamina is down already!" The leader who is still holding his wrist and slightly massaging it paused just to push the man that still raising his both hands and grasping a gun. He looked back with sweaty forehead and glistening cheeks. If his face could be squeezed then they would have enough oil to fry a fish and a meal for them to feast. 
 
The man with snot hanging from his nose and hair that look scarce enough which makes him someone that would get bully a lot started to walk with feeble movements and shaky body. He is holding his breath which makes his chest looks like it was big enough like he had suchbeen possessing such broad chest but his ribs were evident to his thin clothes. The man wanted to puke or throw that filthy cooking of Elsa they had this day but if he didn't obey his brother's command, he would be the one that will get beaten until he couldn't move anymore. 
 
"Leon! Leon! That ugly guy is getting nearer and nearer. I felt like I would get ugly if I get close to him! Snap out of it will you!?" But Leon doesn't respond. A short distance was separating them and the man swallowed a huge lump in his throat before he reaches his trembling arm to check if he just had a shock and had lost consciousness while standing. But the moment he got inside Leon's perimeter, Leon moved and it was too late for him to retreat.
 
"AAAAHHHHH!" Leon caught his wrist and hit it that cost for him to let go of the gun and had given Leon opportunity to grab it and shot it onto the side of his face. The others couldn't reacted in time and they both had been shot to either their thighs or waist which had caused them to fall at the ground. 
 
They had never thought that someone would be this proficient in battle will cross this path where they are doing their 'business'. The leader is having a look like he is not believing what he sees. Such an old man could move like he was a teen will be here in this place. They are considered the most agile in their group and if a monster like this would suddenly bump to them when they misjudge his appearance, they all will see a faith worst than the punishment that befitted all the crimes they committed. But they have already been too many wins to cower in fear. They swallow the pain and glared strongly. Leon could feel their bloodlust but that isn't enough to shock him.
 
"YOU DAMNED SON OF A BITCH!!!!" The leader dash towards him while holding his waist where the blood were oozing out. Leon is not moving from where he was and yet the gun is working non-stop. 
 
Arm
 
Stomach
 
Knees
 
Pelvic
 
Cheeks
 
No bullets hit nothing and every shot makes a deafening shout. It's heard in the area. It is a horror of shriek that couldn't be distinguish if it was from a man or woman but one thing is for sure, what might that person is experiencing, no one would want to see it or feel. 
 
"P--please! AAAAAHhh!! Stop! I am begging you!! I'm sorry sir!" Seeing that their older brother were begging on his knees while his eyes were full of tears, the two followed and does the same. They are willing to kiss the floor or to lick the sole of his shoes. They look like slave begging for their master to show mercy but their master's ears were deaf. There is one principle that Leon followed in his life inside the gate.
There's no redemption for trashes. Just like those fools that tricked him.
 
He continue to shoot the gun while still wondering why the bullets doesn't run out. Only after a minute or two the melody of gunshots stopped and only the suppressed sobs and groans of the three brothers with chunks and bits of their flesh were scattered on the ground like fertilizer for plants to go healthy. They look gross than disfigured creature on horror games with a mini boss wearing a pyramid hat. But Leon's satisfied to see them begging. Not like he will have mercy on them.
 
Leon stand unmoving and the more the silence dragged on the more of the fear growing in the three brother's heart. 
 
Ting!
 
The gun roared again and collided to something from the diagonal direction where Leon is standing and there he will saw someone that he didn't expect would be existing.
