Chapter 249 249:Aftermath Of Devastation

A week had passed since the incident but the storm offset by Leon had yet to calm down.

The entire world was set ablaze by the horrifying incident.

In the aftermath of the horrifying incident involving Leon, the world trembled with fear and uncertainty. Despite a week having passed, the storm of dread surrounding Leon showed no signs of decreasing.

The flames of panic spread like wildfire, consuming the hearts and minds of people far and wide. The entire world seemed to be set ablaze by the terror unleashed by Leon's actions.

Reports flooded in, each one more chilling than the last. A total of 1100 deaths were reported, but what sent shivers down the spines of all who heard was the fact that the corpses of 90% of the deceased had yet to be found. It was as if they had vanished into thin air, leaving behind only whispers of their existence.

The number surely wasn't big but in terms of actual individuality, the Aetheria Prime almost lost all Martial King and Martial Emperor along with 4 staggering Martial Saints.

The families that reigned at the top suddenly found themselves unable to react as they lost most of their fighter tips and all of this happened so suddenly that it freaked out everyone.

The loss was staggering, especially within the ranks of Aetheria Prime. The once proud organizations and families now found themselves falling from the devastating blow.

Nearly all of its Martial Kings and Martial Emperors, along with four formidable Martial Saints, had been wiped out in one fell swoop making Elysium hollow.

The remaining members of the Great Families, who had once held themselves aloof from such mortal concerns, now found themselves trembling with fear. The realization that their own safety was no longer assured struck them like a thunderbolt.

The magnitude of the tragedy was difficult to comprehend. The number of warriors who had disappeared, along with the four Martial Saints and the Martial Emperor, was equivalent to an entire army of few strongholds in the Dimensional Zones as the people dying here occupied high ranks in the dimensional zones.

It was a loss that would be felt for generations to come.

As news of the catastrophe spread, a sense of horror gripped the hearts of people across the world.

Minute footage and glimpses of Leon's fight went viral and started trending across all platforms before a bright light exploded.

The name of Leon became synonymous with fear and dread, whispered in hushed tones by those who dared to speak of it at all. And amidst the chaos and devastation, the true extent of Leon's power was yet to be known.

The remaining members of the Great Families almost wet their pants on hearing this.

Elysium was the biggest country in the present dystopian world. Though the losses weren't huge enough to destroy law and order, the gap created by this incident was hard to recover.

If this wasn't enough, the blow dealt by Leon by releasing several videos of illegal and corrupt activities made people doubt the government.

They knew that many seats of government and high-ranking minister positions were held by the families so people started to protest against them and asked for the impeachment of the current authority believing that the government failed them.

The incident was on the top spot of every news channel all over the world, broadcast for 24 hours a day even though a week had passed.

...

Somewhere in Vistara, a young boy holding a spear over his shoulder stared at the screen with a blatant look of horror.

The news report who reached the scene were horrified to see a parched piece of barren land. On the side, the screen saw the previous huge luxurious mansion which was no more.

Seeing this he swallowed his saliva.

"This....Isn't this too much? So strong?"He muttered followed by a shrieking proud voice echoing in his head.

[Strong my ass..... This doesn't even amount to the power of my pinky finger.]

"Do you even have a pinky finger idiot?"

[Idiot....Bastard did you just call me an idiot…I am the weapon of deity. The Demon God of Destruction and yet you..]

"Shut up!"He screamed and stared at the screen.

[The incident was due to the face-off between a man named Leon with the Seph family. As for the sources and after careful investigation, we found the man to be Leon Befort. All this piles up to the grievances. If you belong to Aetheria Prime and Aurorica you would have already heard the name.]

[Yes, you hear it right. It's the same person Leon, the uncrowned Crown Prince of Aurorica who despite being unable to cultivate ran wild until he suffered a setback when his fiancee Rothschild broke off his engagement...]

A familiar image flashed on the mobile screen.

"Brother Leon.....Isn't he Brother Leon?"

A dense aura shook the place as the subconsciously grabbed the spear.

[Do you know this now? You are too dumb Lucien.]

Ignoring the spear's sarcastic remarks, Lucien swallowed his sword. His heart beat in excitation when he finally got the clue about Leon's whereabouts.

After going through the news, a blurry memory resurfaced when Leon spoke to him about suffering a similar grievance and advised him to strike back when you are stronger.

"Damn! Brother is so awesome. You are my role model brother. You uprooted several families all at once. But weren't you a Martial Grandmaster so how did you become so strong?"

Lucien could still hear curses from the spear but he just shook his head to keep this at bay.

The only answer he could conclude was that Leon had trained until his ass off to reach here and overwhelm everyone.

"I need to train so that one day I may stand side by side beside him and help him to decimate his enemies."

"Hahaha! Brother, just wait for me to get stronger. I believe that there won't be a better henchman than me. I will be your right-

hand man and your weapon."

"Just wait…"

As Lucien started training seriously with eyes burning fiercely, the spear in his mind went crazy.

[AHHHHH….You, the inheritor of one of the world's strongest weapons yet are going to become a henchman…]

[Just what the hell is wrong with you…]

[Damn! Why did I choose this idiot?]
