Chapter 279 279:A Pleasant Day To Kill

The room was bathed with warm golden light as rays of morning sun peeked through the curtains.

The woman stirred, slowly emerging from the depths of sleep as the first rays of sunlight kissed her face.

Her eyes darted to the place beside her. Though there was no one now, the place still felt warm.

“It still has his lingering scent.”

Muttering this, the crazy memory flashed in her mind making her face red hot.

‘I can’t believe we did something so crazy. I feel embarrassed.’

With a soft groan and yawning heavily, she stretched her arms above her head, with a blissful smile.

But as she moved, a sudden sharp pain shot through her body, causing her to wince and freeze in place. Her breath caught in her throat as she clenched her teeth, trying to suppress the discomfort.

“AHHH!”

Following the soft groan, a figure flashed before her.

Concern etched across his face as standing by her side, he reached out a hand to support her and asked, “Are you okay, Sophia?”

Struggling to find her voice, Sophia nodded weakly, her muscles tense with agony. “I-I think so,” she managed to whisper in a strained voice.

Sensing her distress, Leon quickly moved to her side, offering his support as she sat up, against the bed leaning against the pillow.

“I didn’t know it hurt like this. Maybe it’s because someone was too wild,” Sophia pouted, eyeing Leon who averted his gaze.

“Then who was the one screaming for more.”

Now, it was Sophia’s turn to avert her gaze.

“So, where were you?”

Leon instead of replying snapped his hands, shadow materialized carrying a table and soon various things were put on the table.

Herbal tea, nuts, fruits, breakfast, soup, and many other things were set up in quick succession.

The ghost arranges those things quickly and nearly in quick succession.

“They even do this?”Sophia asked curiously while her eyes widened seeing those things.

“They are non-combatant staff.”

“The first time hurt and it’s physically exhausting so I brought the stuff to supplement your energy.”

Nodding in agreement Sophia leaned into his embrace, grateful for his steadfast presence. Despite the pain that gripped her body, she found solace in the warmth of his touch.

Looking at her a sudden wild thought came to his mind.

In the past, he had read novels about cultivators engaging in sexual activities for a year to several years.

They were doing this for one and a half days. Though it was very satisfying, wasn’t it a waste of several years?

He could kill many during this time.

“Hey!”

“Are you thinking something useless?”

Sophia’s cold voice brought Leon to his senses.

To prevent Sophia from knowing his thoughts, he carried Sophia and placed her on the seat

After spending some more time with Sophia, Leon finally got to the point.

“Sophia, I need to go out for a bit.”

Sophia raised her brows staring at Leon’s smile and sighed.

Her inner senses were screaming that her man was going to do something terrific but she didn’t dare to ask it.

“I understand. Please be safe and return quickly.”

Leon caressed Sophia’s hair lovingly, “You don’t need to hold in. I don’t have any problem sharing with you so you can ask.”

“Umm! There is no need. It’s not good to always pry.”

Leon nodded and kissed Sophia before his figure disappeared with a swoosh.

“If you want to leave, ask Hella, she will drop you at the Woods Mansion.”

Sophia smiled thinking that this guy was quite weird but paused a bit when she felt something then looking around she saw Hella appearing around and peeking at her with a jealous gaze.

“Huh!”

She blinked and saw Hella standing with a blank expression.

“I hope I am having an illusion.”

……

A few miles away from Wood Mansion

Inside the old church with crumbling walls and ivy creeping through cracks. Foll𝑜ow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)

A man stepped inside with a chill running down his spine as the air was heavy with memories.

Echoes of his footsteps reverberated through the hollow space, a sharp reminder of days long past. He traced his fingers along the faded walls, feeling the weight of time pressing down upon him.

In the corner, he saw the remnants of his childhood secret base, now nothing more than a pile of rubble. Yet, the memories flooded back, vivid and bittersweet.

As he stood amidst the ruins, a sense of nostalgia washed over him, mingling with the melancholy of the time he had spent here.

“This place is as beautiful as I remember.”

Leon couldn’t help but shake his head.

This place played a crucial role in his memories. Despite most of his memories being locked, he started to remember some things.

Out of which, this place was unforgettable for him.

Because it was part of his struggle both in his past life and future.

This was the church he attended in his past life as a child and would question God about the unfairness of his life.

“Sometimes I can’t help but wonder if I am hallucinating. What if I had been dreaming and once I woke up, I would just be an ordinary man or a heavenly being slave of someone higher sent to do some secret mission?”

Thinking this, he can’t help but remember the phrase.

Life is a crossroad of never-ending nightmares and sweet dreams were just thrown at us to make us greedy to stick to life instead of ending it.

Leon looked at the decayed cross sign covered by mosses.

“I am starting to suspect that instead of going to another world that fucker sent me to the future.”

His face crumbled, as he concluded.

Behind the church, was the grave of his first crush Ana whose death made him finally walk onto the part of no return.

Alas, the place had gone through a change and there was no grave at that place. And he didn’t have the guts to dig the spot to see.

Thinking this a sudden urge rose in his mind

What if…..

What if the church wasn’t just a coincidence?

What if he can change and meet them once he reaches the peak of the world?

Certainly, everything was possible despite the faint hope.

Shaking his head, Leon slapped his cheek.

“Let’s finish the task first.”

With a resolute expression, Leon walked toward the inner chamber and then to the basement.

Opening the door, he smiled looking at the crowd behind the prison cell.

“Welcome to Wood’s secret Basement.”

The ones inside started to tremble for a moment.

“Nice to meet you all.”

“I hope we have a pleasant day of…..”

“Suffering.”
