The Journey of the Outsider.-Chapter 15: The Devil Whispers
Chapter 15 - The Devil Whispers
The question of primal evil inside humanity has always been a question, was there evil inside humanity when it was first born? Was it evil to kill to survival then, and now; when humanity has come far and beyond their primal years, there no evil when there was no thought, but now evil exists and it haunts the heart of humanity.
A act of evil is done by human's one mind, but doesn't happen in a second. First the human feels fear for the act; he weights his morals down and questions each and every things of reality he knows. The consequences bring more boulders on his shoulders, and he thinks of not doing it, to free of a sin and try the a virtue. A ideal human should do that; but...
Then he hears the devil whisper into his year, he persuades him with the pleasures of the sin he commits, he feels the pain in the virtue and the relaxation in his sin. Then comes a single moment, where it boils down to, "Should I do it?" thinks the man.
If he doesn't do it, the man will face this another day and where he will be tempted once again. But he does give in the temptation of the act, he become evil and embraces sin. Then the devil will never whisper again, he does not need to. Because, the man whispers the evil to himself.
Afterall, Humanity has created evil, and they are the devil's greatest allies.
-----
A vicious, and almost maniacal came up on the man's face. There was his energy oozing out from him, it was different from the whispers of malice that Silver had heard before.
"What can those warlords do? This is the church of the humanity, where we are all equal. Not born special, and above all other. Inside, this church humanity can only be free from that bloody god and his angel's interventions. No warlord will risk their lives to come save you here."
That sent a chill down Silver's spine, "Come on. The warlords were supposed to be the strongest, how come people are already finding ways to neutralize them."
The grunts began to bring their clubs and knives towards the girl. "NO! NO! please spare her. I brought you everything, she is little girl. Why are you killing her?"
"Don't see, we need to live too. There is evil in the heart of that girl, didn't she kill her mother when she was born? Do you think she needs to live?" The boss of the grunts, spoke with pure disgust.
"It wasn't her fault that. She didn't want lose her mother, why would she want that?" The father desperately tried to negotiate, "The poor fool doesn't realize that he is supporting evil and instead supporting his wife's killer. Kill him too."
As the boss ordered, the old man rushed towards his daughter and wrapped himself around him.
"Please!!" The grunts and lackeys moved forward regard with clubs and bats ready to swing.
"I think, I've heard enough."

" In my world, mana not the only thing people use to get stronger, experience and hard work makes you stronger too."
Silver snapped apart the wires on his legs and hands, cracked his neck. While, the grunts stood in dismay of what they were seeing. "You are using the power of evil too!" Screamed the boss.
Before his scream ended, Silver rushed forward and punched him in the face, knocking him on the ground.
Silver ran forward and picked up the bag of gold from the ground, swinged it against the next grunt's face destroying his jaw. With another rotation, he threw the bag of gold right at the grunt's face who were surrounding the father and daughter.
"Run! Now!" The father tried to grab his daughter and run out of the church.
While, the attack on his Silver began.
"Come!" The grunts with clubs came at him, for the first swing, Silver rushed towards the grunt, he took to his shoulder to absorb the attack. getting pushed to the side. He used his speed to push his arms around the attacker's neck, he pushed his windpipe right into his spinal bone.
As the air was choked out of grunt, Silver used his body was a shield for the next attacks. When the man's clubs fell on the ground, he pushed the dead man away and grabbed his club.
"I am enjoying this." He took the club and went for the people with the knives, swing the club at their faces, they enemies were pushed back and when their back were finally against the wall. Silver striked for the head, screaming and cheering as he went.
"Come on! How's next?" Silver ran frantically from left to right in order to prevent encirclement. He threw the club at one of the grunts, and picked up a knife from the ground.
"Now, the fun begin." Now, the fun begin. Silver didn't have much experience using knives, so he did what anyone with knife how. He closed the distance and stab, stab, stab.
"Take this." THe club striked right on his back, and honestly it did hurt a bit. But Silver turned around, and pushed the knife right in his gut and threw him on the ground.
The grunts got more and more pushed away from the attack, "Come on! I am barehanded. Why aren't you attacking me?!" no one dared come closer to him. Half of it because his back was to the door, so he could escape at any moment.
"YOU! Son of bloody evil!" The boss came walking through the grunts, with a large clubs in his hands. Unlike his henchman, he charged forward, with large club.
"Too easy." he took the bluff, Silver pulled out a knife from his pocket. He ducked the first blow, pushed the knife through his leg, hoping to unbalance him. "Argh.." but there was barely a reaction.
The stabbed leg came forward to hit a knee right into Silver's chin. "How did he get so strong suddenly?" Silver had remembered the boss had been weaker when he first punched him.
Then the club striked into Silvers head so hard, it broke apart into two. And this time it did hurt. Pushing Silver into a venerable lying position.
The before Silver could get up, the jump up in the air and pushed his entire force onto Silver's chest and his body into the ground cracking apart the slab a bit.
"Augghh..." That really pushed all air out of Silver's lungs, maybe his ribcage was now bonedust.
"Now, that does your god do to protect you? Evil abandons their hosts the moment it fears loss. Weak and pathetic just like your god." The grunts behind the boss screamed, in joy.
Silver knew the end was near unless, unless someone would ...
"Oh my! Do I sense blasphemy in this room?" At the dorm of the room, the lady was standing. Having a hand fan in her hands and wearing draped red from lace to her slippers.
"haha... a warlord are you? Did that little father beg for you to come here and his save this pathetic man? You wre-"
"Shut up. I don't like being disrespected among guests. That man is quite new, and you put such bad impression of the people on him."
"Wherever there is sunlight, there are eyes in this kingdom. And where eyes exist, ears might too." Silver remembered the advice Alsana had given him.
"That is it. This is one, Alsana was talking about. She can see anything in this city, if sunlight falls on top of it."
"Oh my! Looks like this your poor mana and power containment couldn't bear my power? Let's take this elsewhere shall we?"
「 Realm: Blooming gardens.」
「The mana constraints have been dispelled you can use mana and other skills in this area. 」
