Chapter 370 - Rage
"I didn't expect you to look like a human," Ning said as he raised his fist and punched back at the man.
Jha'Akim instinctively blocked the punch but was sent flying quite a bit far back.
"Wow," he said. "I was already surprised at how strong the girl was. But I didn't expect you to be stronger. I couldn't really tell your strength through my clone, but it seems you are one of the stronger ones on this planet."
"Are you okay?" Ning asked Ely while still keeping his eyes on Jha'Akim.
"Yes, yes, I'm fine," Ely said. "My left arm is a little hurt, but it's nothing that won't heal on its own."
"Good," Ning said. "We should—"
Jha'Akim suddenly rushed forward from his place and came towards Ning with an open palm. However, as he got closer, his palm turned to that of a tiger's paw and slammed onto Ning.
Ning blocked the attack with his arms, but he was still sent flying back. Ely had to catch him midair to stop him from flying further away.
"Are you alright?" she asked.
"Arghh! His punch hurts," Ning said.
"I know. He hits like a beast. His body also changes to one from time to time," Ely said.
"That's because he is," Ning said. "That's the guy that was supposed to be trapped inside the tomb, but he's out now."
Ely's eyes went wide. "That beast with the powers of other beasts? That's him?" she asked. "Just how strong is he?"
"Very," Ning said softly. "From what I can see, he has a cultivation base of nearly 4th Spirit Transformation realm. That alone would've been fine, but he also seems to have a physical body equivalent to that of 2nd Spirit Transformation realm."
"Can you handle him?" Ely asked.
Ning couldn't help but shake his head in denial. "Overall, he's stronger than me. I don't think he can win against me, but I can forget about winning against him too."
Ely started getting worried. "He's a bad guy right?"
"Even if he wasn't, what he did before coming here is already enough to make him one," Ning said. "All of the beasts that were watching over him except one are dead."
Ely gasped. She remembered seeing those beast statues and talking to them. To think so many of them were dead, just like that."
"What is he? Does he have any weakness? Check it," Ely suggested.
"Not right now. He's stronger than me so the pain I will have to mentally suffer to learn it is not something I can afford to get right now. Let me get you to safety first. After that, it won't matter what happens to me," Ning said.
"Okay, let's go," Ely said.
Ning nodded and disappeared
Jha'Akim who was just looking at him was surprised. He got a little apprehensive and spread out his divine sense once more and checked the entire island, but he couldn't find Ning or Ely no matter what.
However, not even 10 seconds later, Ning returned back to the island. Jha'Akim was surprised when he saw that as well.
"How are you going in and out of this island? Do you know how to leave a mark on it as well?" he asked.
"Leave a mark on it?" Ning was confused. "I'm afraid I don't know what that is, but let's not talk about that. What are your intentions here? You killed so many beasts just get out of imprisonment. So, what is it now that you want to do? Rule over the world? Kill all the remaining beasts?"
"Hmph, what makes you think it's only the beasts I will go after? I will kill every single beast and human on this planet. I have no intentions to rule a bunch of cowards that could do nothing but harm what they couldn't understand," Jha'Akim said.
"The beasts are guilty of how they treated me, but the humans aren't saints either. They not only shunned me away but my father as well, just because I was his son."
"This hatred of mine will only stop when I know that there are no more beasts or men. In the end, the only thing there will be is Hybrids."
"I will turn everyone into a hybrid, be it by force or fear. Once everyone is a hybrid, no one will be a hybrid," Jha'Akim said.
Ning frowned. "You are planning to doom an entire planet just for revenge?" Ning asked.
"When did the planet ever care about me, for me to care about it? The beasts, the humans, are all the same. All they care about is themselves. If they come in contact with anything that is remotely not like them, they start fearing it, even if the thing they fear is a harmless young child."
Jha'Akim's face was starting to shift between shades of red and yellow. Veins started popping up on his forehead from all the anger he was bottling inside.
"Do you know how it feels to be beaten by the humans and beasts every opportunity they get because you are a freak? Do you know how it feels to be shunned by society so much that you can't even live your life properly?"
"Do you know how it feels when the other beasts kill your weak and helpless mother just because she gave birth to you? Do you know how it feels when your father kills himself because he can't handle the stress from being mentally tortured by society?"
"Do you know how it feels to live off of scraps in the forest, unable to get food as a 3-year-old child just because you walk differently from the others?. Do you— never mind, I let my rage show once more," Jha'Akim said as he tried to calm down.
"I wish for not a single other human or beast in this entire world to go through what I have," he said.. "And for that, I will make a world where no one is different from the other."
