Chapter 81 Ateryu and Ōtakemaru
Chapter 81 Ateryu and Ōtakemaru
"Who...are you?"
In the prison, A-Tian sat slumped on the ground in despair.
After his defeat, he still held a sliver of hope of surviving and surrendered to Sakanoue no Tamuramaro. However, before he was even taken to Heian-kyo, he arrived in Kawachi Province, where the imperial court issued an execution order.
The court went back on its word, having promised him peace!
Not only will he be killed, but his family will also be executed; everyone will be put to death tomorrow!
An enraged Atiru looked at the man before him.
The man was dressed in official robes and wore a tasseled crown; he must have been an official in the imperial court.
"Are you so eager to kill me in the middle of the night?"
Upon seeing the other person, Atelier couldn't help but sneer, "You're really impatient, aren't you?"
"very good."
The man looked at Atelier's expression, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. He said calmly:
"You have the potential to become the 'Upper Moon'."
"What?" A-Ti-Liu frowned, not quite understanding what the other person was saying.
What does it mean to have the potential to become the Upper Moon?
"I can give you a chance to follow me." The man took another step forward, and the cell door in front of him was smashed open!
It was as if it had been hit by some invisible force, and with a bang, it flew behind Atelier!
"!"
Atelier's pupils dilate!
This guy...
What are you doing?
There are some humans in the world with extraordinary powers, but he has only heard of them and has never seen one!
But now, the ability this man is using is clearly not that of an ordinary person; it is that of a ghost or a god!
"I will bestow my blood upon you, granting you an immortal body and eternal life."
Muzan raised his hand, and in the next moment his palm seemed to turn into a tentacle, which pierced into Ateryu's body!
"what!"
A-Tian let out a scream. He felt as if something was flowing into his body, and then he felt his body getting hot, as if he was about to explode!
At the same time, he could also feel his body brimming with power! It was as if he had received a blessing from the gods!
"This feeling!"
Atelier's expression shifted from pain to excitement, and he exclaimed passionately, "So powerful! With this power, am I invincible?!"
If he had that kind of power, he would never have lost to Sakanoue Tamuramaro!
No, he's not thinking about fighting Sakanoue no Tamuramaro now; he's thinking about killing all the officials in Heian Castle!
Muzan withdrew his tentacles, and Ateryu looked at the man again, feeling a strong sense of oppression emanating from him, along with a sense of submission!
He had a feeling that if the other party wanted to, they could take his life in an instant!
"Who goes there?!"
The commotion they were making seemed to have finally attracted the attention of those outside, as a large number of footsteps could be heard.
"After today, you will no longer be Ateryuki, but my subordinate 'Ōtakemaru'."
"Now, get rid of them."
Muzan said calmly
"yes!"
Ateru dared not disobey Muzan's orders, especially since he was going to kill these people anyway!
It wasn't just them, but many more officials!
Atelier rushed out quickly, and seeing the guards running towards him outside the door, he laughed loudly and unleashed the power surging within him!
He grabbed the soldier at the front with one hand, lifted him up, and threw him away, causing him to crash into even more people behind him!
Someone tried to slash him with a knife, but it didn't even penetrate his skin!
"?"
!
Everyone was shocked when they saw this!
What's going on?
Someone is actually invulnerable to swords and bullets?!
"Go to hell!"
Atelier snatched the knife from the other man's hand and then went on a killing spree!
With a single slash, he killed several people around him, and the others retreated in fear, no one daring to approach Ateru again!
"..."
Atelier was about to give chase, but he felt a strong hunger. He stopped abruptly, looked at the people lying on the ground, and his mouth watered.
he……
We're going to eat them!
"Take care of your business and come see me in three days."
Kibutsuji Muzan's voice appeared directly in his mind.
As he began to eat, his thoughts seemed to become somewhat blurred. He was now only thinking about eating and killing people!
Who were we supposed to kill again?!
Oh, right, it's about killing those who originally wanted to kill him!
At this moment, Atelier's face was covered in blood, and in the darkness of the night, he looked like a terrifying demon!
The earlier commotion attracted even more people, who rushed over quickly, carrying torches and weapons!
"That's him!"
Some of the people who had been scared away earlier brought a group of people over, and after seeing the scene in front of the prison, they suddenly couldn't help but vomit!
Not only him, but others also felt disgusted and terrified!
Because the scene at this moment is just too terrifying!
Amidst the blood-soaked ground, several corpses lay before them in grotesquely twisted poses, their bodies bearing bite marks and their bloody entrails ripped out!
Amidst the severed limbs and remains, Atiru was like a demon, bathed in blood and fear!
His face was covered not only in blood, but also in bits of flesh. What a horrific sight!
"A monster...a monster..."
Now they finally understood why those people had been scared away before, and even they were trembling wildly at this moment!
But considering their numbers, the leader still said, "Kill him!"
After eating, Atelier felt that he had become stronger.
Moreover, it seems that some even stronger power has been awakened!
Lightning erupted from his body and shot towards the soldiers with a deafening boom!
"what!"
The soldiers let out a scream, and then fell silent!
In an instant, he killed dozens of people!
But killing them isn't enough!
He also intends to go to Heian-kyo and eliminate all those dubious nobles and officials!
He ignored the people there and headed north at full speed!
At this moment, his body seemed to have turned into lightning, moving forward at an extremely fast speed!
boom!
The people of Hanoi only felt as if a light flashed in the darkness, followed by a foul stench. They didn't know what had happened, and by the time the soldiers' bodies were discovered and a message was sent to the Ping An court, it was already too late!
Kawachi Province itself is located in the eastern part of Osaka Prefecture. It is not far from Kyoto, but it is not close either. However, for Ateryuki at this moment, it is by no means a very far place!
Since it was already night, most people in this era were already asleep, and the noble lords of Heian-kyo had no idea what was going to happen next!
