"hey, did you hear? the demonic god sect master was killed and replaced by an elder!" as levi was walking by a tavern he heard a few people talking. "i heard that the elder that replaced him made a deal with another sect to kill him!" another one said. "hahaha! that good for nothing sect is getting what it deserves! i heard that they are looking for the dead sect master's disciple!" another one shouted after downing a large cup of ale.

creak!

levi pushed open the old saloon doors and walked in. because of the hood and his height, which was shorter than that of an adult, a lot of people were paying attention to him. although they couldn't see his face because of the hood, their gazes were sharp. levi ignored the annoying gazes and walked to a table in the back that had 4 men sitting at it.

step, step.

levi stopped at the front of the table and looked down at the 4 sitting men. "ahh? what do you want?" one of them looked at levi with annoyance and asked. "if you're a beggar looking for food, piss off!" another one slammed his hand on the table. levi looked at the four people silently, before he finally spoke. " i heard you talking about something interesting just now. i want you to tell me everything you know, in detail."

"haah? and why would we do that?" one of them got up and walked to levi's side, towering over him. thonk! "ohhh! we'll tell you anything you want to know!" levi threw a pouch of silver coins on the table. "wait, if this runt has that much and and can give it away this easily, then I'd say that he has much more! plus he's hiding his face under that hood! he's probably some rich young master that ran away from home! i say that we just kill the brat and take it!" the one standing beside levi said, loud enough for his 3 friends to hear but soft enough that no one else would.

"jack, you're so smart!" the one who just picked up the pouch of money put it into his washed out robe before plastering a cruel smile on his face. "no, you're just stupid aron!" jack shouted. "hehe." the last 2, isac and ben looked at each other before they sniggered and got up. "hey brat, follow these 4 brothers outside for a while!" jack said with a greedy smile on his face.

levi said nothing as he walked in the middle of the four muscular men. "haah, those four are at it again huh?" at another table an old man sighed. "that kid, it seems today just isn't his day." a middle aged waitress with a plain scarf tied around her head walked up to the old man with a cup of ale and a plate of crispy skinned slow roasted chicken and mashed potatoes. "hmm." the old man took a large drumstick from the plate and bit off a piece.

...

outside, in an alley.

crack!

"aghhh! you bastard! my arm!" jack shouted in pain as he fell onto the ground. " i already broke all of their limbs and they passed out from the pain, so only you can tell me what i want to know." levi's voice was clam, like this was a normal occurrence. "you bastard! i won't tell you anythi- crack! aghhh! my leg!" levi stopped on jack's knee and applied some pressure, crushing it. "ok, let's get some things straight." the temperature of levi's voice dropped.


"if you faint or refuse to tell me what i want to know, i will kill all of you. but what i do to you before, will make you beg for death!" 2 golden eyes were glowing under the hood, looking down on the man as if staring at prey. jack's body became stiff as he looked into those golden eyes, not a sound coming from his mouth. "all right." levi walked up to the now unconscious aron and lifted him up by the neck.

levi said nothing as he grew out his fingernails a little. puchi! he stabbed his fingers into aron's chest. "aghh! wha- my arms! my legs! aghhh! what are you doi-ahhhhhhh!!." a blood curdling scream was heard as levi closed his hand around aron's sternum. crack! a sharp snapping sound, along with the sound of flesh tearing was heard as levi ripped aron's sternum from his chest. with the sternum out of the way you could see aron's heart beating, if you looked from the right angle.

splat!

levi squashed aron's heart like a tomato, causing blood to splash on his cloths before seeping into his body. with his hand still stuck in aron's lifeless body, he absorbed all of the blood causing it to shrivel up. "if you don't talk, then what use are you?" levi let go of the dried out corpse and looked at jack, who was now sitting in a puddle of his own urine. "i-i'll tell you! w-we heard t-that the demonic god s-sect master was killed a-and that one of the elders b-became the new sect master! w-we also heard t-that they are lo-looking for the previous sect master's disciple!" jack stuttered as he spoke.

"hmm." levi was deep in thought. "what is the name of this city, and how do i get to demonic city from here?" he suddenly asked. "t-this city is called cloud city, as for how to get to demonic city from here, i don't know..." jack said. "hmm." levi reached into his robes. "hii! p-please! do-don't kill me!" seeing levi reaching for something jack shouted, terrified. thonk! "if you didn't try to kill me, none of this would have happened. this was the result of your own actions." levi droped the pouch of silver coins before turning around to leave.

...

a few minutes later.

after leaving the alley, levi found himself at the front of an inn. "how much for a room?" he walked in and asked the middle aged woman behind the counter. " 1 silver coin for 1 night and so on." the woman said lazily, it didn't look like business was going well for this woman. in fact, only 2 other people were in the inn, this was precisely why levi decided to stay here. "here." levi put five silver coins on the counter and took a key.

creak!

as he was walking up the stairs, they were making creaking noises. he got in the room and shut the door before taking off the hooded robe and sat on the bed, deep in his thoughts. 'the demonic god sect is looking for me. hmm, i think it's time to try that skill i stole from that disciples memories. what was it called again? appearance manipulation skill!' he thought for a while before remembering the skill's name. due to the fact that the memories were all jumbled up, he had to try to figure out some things by himself.

"according to these memories, this skill is a light based one. you use light to change your appearance..." he paused for a while. "but i don't have light qi, so i won't be able to use this skill." after thinking for a while, he came to this conclusion. "but...what would happen if i move around the blood in my face and eyes?" after he said this, he began to move around the blood in his face. changing his eyes from a bright gold to a dark red, and his face from childish to rigid.

"blood in the right places changed the shape of my face, the blood in my eyes hide the black slit down the middle, so all that's left is my hair." he mumbled. "from the time i started to cultivate this blood evolution skill, my hair color changed to red little by little. if it turned red because of blood, then i should be able to just take out the blood." he tried and succeded. "my hair is now white, my face looks different and my eyes are red. no one should be able to recognize me." he mumbled.

after doing a few more things he got into the bed and went to sleep.
