Chapter 159 159:Leon And Irina[IV]
The dagger descended as fast as lightning and was about to touch the throat when it disappeared all of a sudden much to her surprise.
Her pupils dilated in surprise at the sight of the dagger's sudden vanishment. She raised her chin and stared at Leon wordlessly for a moment.
"The dagg…it vanished."
A myriad of emotions flashed in her eyes and with a smile that bloomed subconsciously, she asked with a parched voice, "Leon! Did you forgive me?"
Irina, unable to hold in anymore, collapsed on the floor as her leg buckled. A sense of weakness washed over her.
"Forgive my ass!"Leon spat with a distorted expression. He thought that she wouldn't dare to do this and using this opportunity he would just leave but….
It seems she had a few screws lost.
"No, I just don't know how to react to this shitty situation. And it's too much to see someone doing suicide for me and in front of me, "Leon then turned around to hide his complicated expression from Irina.
"So?" Irina's voice choked. Her eyes were already on to shed another flood.
"Can you stop your nuclear weapon from leaking?"Leon shouted in an irritated voice.
"Just give me some time to think and don't loiter around me with that crying expression until I look for you. So just stay away and act as if we don't know each other until then.*
Sighing heavily, Leon decided to return to the camp but he had hardly taken a step when another presence appeared abruptly around them.
"What's going on here?"
A fiery voice exploded in the dead night.
Both Leon and Irina's gazes landed on a handsome man.
He took long strides with the confidence of a born leader, his silver hair catching seemed to glow reflecting the light of a fire torch.
His chiseled features and sharp hawk-like eyes convey strength and determination, while his piercing eyes hold a depth of wisdom beyond his years. In his presence, one can't help but be drawn to his charisma.
Leon tilted his head seeing the trail of words.
Name:Cameron Manson
Age:36
Cultivation:Peak Martial King.
Protagonist:Son-in-law who is the commander of Tiger Regiment.
Cameron looked at crying Irina on the floor and then glared furiously at Leon.
"What did you do to her insolent soldier?"
BOOM!
Cameron's aura burst forth like surging waves that crashed onto Leon who just stood their bewilderment seeing the man's uniform and stars on the collar.
'What the fuck? I didn't do anything and If I attack now, I am gonna be punished because this guy is a fucking Commander.'
The aura surging at Leon suddenly vanished leaving behind gentle waves brushing against his cheek as the man turned his gaze.
Cameron, then with a flicker extended his hand to hold Irina but the moment his hands were about to touch it.
Something hiding deep in Leon exploded soul.As if a thing that had been lying dormant suddenly moved and with a loud scream resonating from the depth of his soul, a surge of pulsating energy blasted from him.
"Don't touch my mother!"
BOOOM!
A shock wave emerged from Leon and a trail of darkness erupted dyeing Leon's eyes in pitch dark.
Cameron raises his hand summoning his power that creates a vortex of qi.
A piercing scream startled Cameron and he flinched. At the same time, a faint icy whisper fell into his ears.
Just as Cameron's aura crackled with intensity as he prepared to strike Leon, his silver hair glinting in the darkness. But before he could unleash his attack, Irina, stepped forward, her expression suddenly turned cold and icy, betraying the tears she had shed just moments ago.
"Commander Cameron?"
A hoarse cold voice, cold enough to freeze one body and give one a shiver, emerged close to Cameron...
As Irina released her own aura, a palpable wave of icy power filled the place pinning Cameron down with an overwhelming force.
A wave of snow storm blew forming a tornado around Irina and Cameron's vision turned blank by chilly white frost.
"What?"
The air crackled with tension as her aura clashed with his, creating an icy freezing atmosphere charged with fear.
Cameron's confident demeanor faltered as he felt the weight of Irina's power pressing down on him, his bloodlust replaced by a creeping sense of dread. Even Leon, who summoned all his power moments before had stood frozen in fear, now watched in awe as his mother unleashed her formidable strength.
The shift in Irina's expression was striking, her once tearful eyes now cold and steely, radiating a fierce determination that sent shivers down Cameron and Leon's spines.
At that time both Cameron and Leon stood bewildered seeing Irina whose hair rising up in the air, had seemingly turned her into a cold demoness.
"How.....How dare you strike my son? It seems you don't value your life enough so you come here to die, right?"
"What?"Cameron shouted, stepping back with his gaze shifting from Leon to Irina.
A cold ruthless smile crept on Irina's lips.
"So tell me, do you want me to fulfill your wish?"
Hearing her words and seeing that expression, for some reason Leon felt quite familiar.
It's as if Leon had seen someone like him.
An exact mirror image of the creepy smile he makes when he kills.
Meanwhile, Cameron shouted hurriedly to clear the situation, "What? Is he your son? Then what are you doing here with that expression of crying and begging as if you have been wronged."
"I thought he was trying to blackmail you or torture you so I acted. I didn't mean to interfere with your family politics...I mean relationship."
"Hell! Just do what you were doing?"
Speaking this, Cameron took a turn immediately and ran hurriedly as if his life was on the line.
Seeing his dispersing back, Irina turned towards Leon with a look of rejoicing and happiness.
Her heart leaped and almost burst into joy when her son called her mother while taking a stand against the Martial King for her.
"Leon, you called me mother just mow!"
Leon felt a shiver meeting her gaze.
"No, you might have heard wrong."
"Sorry, nature is calling me urgently. I need to go and relieve myself."
With a burst of speed, Leon turned back and also ran away feeling that he might go mad if she linger around this woman for long.
Irina's eyes dimmed down and she clenched her fist tightly.
"It's not a bad start."
"No matter what happens , this time I won't let this go. Even if I have to repent my mistake and ask for forgiveness throughout my life, I will keep going until you forgive me or I die. Meanwhile, I also need to search for the perpetrator behind my memory change and manipulation."
Irina's eyes glinted coldly as she thought about this incident and steeled her resolve more to find that vicious criminal.
.....
Meanwhile, outside the gate
In an encounter of terror and amidst sand dyed with bloodied flesh and corpses lying torn all around, a man walked on shifting sand.
"Now that I have taken care of bodyguards, let's go and find the real deal."
His gaze lingered far away on two black dots that seemed to be enjoying life.
"Tsk...Tsk...Even after giving you time to grow, so this is how much you amount to."
A sarcastic voice of mockery echoed.
"You let me down...You let me down so much Roland."
"Whatever, let's just wrap it up so that I can prepare for the storm to come after this Shadow Zone incident is wrapped up."
