Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

Zoemi added and the other marital artists let out a unison gasp of realization.

"And last thing. I am not the enemy of the Heavenly Star Nation. I doubt I could ever be, as long as you stay loyal to Guide, that is~"

The youngster added with a cheeky wink and...

*WHOOOSH*

Disappeared from right under their noses.

"What in the Guide\'s name was that?!"

With Zoemi gone Bevan roared to vent his frustration.

"Forget about it for now! We have to make sure that William is alive! Alice, hold on tight."

The head of the Great Ram sect scoffed, before propping his grandchild up in his arms and about to charge at the ocean.

*SPLASH* *thump*

But before he could put his words into action a spout of water shot into the sky on the horizon and beaten-up William landed next to them completely drenched.

The white-haired man looked straight-up miserable, with blood dripping out of his nose, mouth, ears, and even eyes. He was crossing his arms and holding his sides as if trying to keep his ribcage in one piece.

"William! That k... that young man from before he..."

"I was able to hear him. I had and still have all twelve laws active..."

The head of the Raging Bull sect rushed over to him and began to explain but the white-haired man closed his eyes and shook his head from side to side.

"Ah, of course, you... Wait, you are?! Even now?!"

The martial artist nodded with understanding but then his eyes widened and he gasped in shock as the meaning of William\'s words sank in.

The man who everyone in the Heavenly Star Nation hailed as the strongest was using all power at his disposal and ended up being beaten half to death by a single punch from a new Heavenly Star Warrior.

"Do you want to be shaken even more?"

William smiled wryly gis law of Virgo was finally able to stop the bleeding both internal and external.

"Before he sent me flying the second time, I actually managed to land a hit on him – or rather, he allowed me to hit him before he retaliated..."

The white-haired man revealed, showing off his right hand.

All his fingers were broken and his knuckles were shattered, slowly being restored by the healing star power.

"But there was no shockwave or anything, was there? Do any of you understand what that means?"

"..."

William asked, making the other marital artist go silent in confusion.

"If an attack doesn\'t have an effect it means that the defensive law of the other person is on a higher level, right grandpa...?"

"...!"

The one who responded was the youngest martial artist present – the grandchild of the head of the Great Ram sect.

"That\'s exactly right. But that should not be something possible. I have achieved complete mastery over all twelve laws..."

"Then... is it because of the blessing? He said that he was chosen by Guide... and as crazy as it sounds even declared Guide to... well.. be his woman... I wasn\'t even aware that Guide had a gender..."

William nodded and smiled at the young martial artist which prompted Bevan to furrow his brows and sighs with an awkward expression.

"I had received the blessing of Guide multiple times. If it is a matter of blessing then he must have received a blessing of a being far more powerful than the keeper of the stars, Guide."

The white-haired man said finally able to breathe normally, straightening his back as the law of Virgo was doing its job.

"Haaa... even if it is with the help of a blessing, that kid ended up achieving strength above the supernova level... do you understand? Supernova level is the highest possible level that a martial artist, a human, can ever reach. It\'s the limit for us. And he broke through it... although it kind of seems that he didn\'t realize that yet..."

William took a deep breath and stretched out as his body got back to perfect condition.

"Wait, you\'re saying that he transcended the highest possible level a human can achieve? Then what does that makes him?"

The other marital artists exchanged confused looks and asked.

"That much should be obvious, right?"

"!!!"

William scoffed and smiled while pointing his index finger toward the sky, stunning the others.

"Alright... it seems we should start moving on our own too. I can bet that even after Zoemi will wipe his enemy off the face of the earth, there will still be someone we can lodge an official complaint about the treatment of our countrymen."

William nodded and smacked his fists together while his expression turned cold as he focused on a new goal.

*&$#^%$#&#* *BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM* *RUMBLE*

"!!!"

But just then an explosion followed a pillar of silver light shooting out of the sky and creating tremors that almost knocked all the marital artists off balance.

"...I mean... hopefully there will still be someone we could hold responsible..."

William gulped down his saliva and said in a much less confident voice.

------

The sunlight was shining into the underground experimental facility through the massive hole created by Zoemi descending from the sky.

"P-please! H-have mercy...! This... this isn\'t the main laboratory...! Th-the place where they have the original crystal that was used to power the shards we use to create the artifacts is hidden deep within the Atreterve nation\'s borders...!"

Zoemi was holding a trembling scholar by the scruff of his collar and was listening to the man confessing everything only after being asked a single question.

"I know. I came here to destroy the artifacts so that you would not try to mess with my friends in the Perserios\' territory."

The young man smiled and shrugged his shoulders lightheartedly while looking to the side at the crates where ready-to-use control devices were being stored.

"Th-then, w-will you let me go...?"

The man trembled but ended up crying out hopefully.

"Hmm, let\'s see..."

Zoemi smiled cheerfully and reached out his hand.

He touched the man\'s ear and flicked the jet-black earring the man wore.

Then, Zoemi moved his hand and singled out a black strand amongst the scholar\'s green hair...

"Not in your fucking dreams~"

*&$#^%$#&#* *BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM* *RUMBLE*

He said happily and the silver light swallowed the entire facility, annihilating everything in its wake.
