Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong - Chapter 77

A Dark Night… Part-2.
Artavia, Capital City, Blaze Mansion.

Main Gate.

Dark clouds hung in the sky, and it rained heavily on that moonless dark night.

*Step**step*

A sound of heavy footsteps rang out in front of the main gates.

The security guard hurriedly rushed out of his small resting room with an umbrella in his hand.

The old guard had a disapproving expression on his face as he had to go out in this heavy rain to open the door.

He opened a small window in the giant metal door to look outside, but he saw no one standing there.

“Who’s there? State your business! The Blaze family is closed to visitors right now-”

*rumble*

Before the old guard could finish speaking, a violent tremble shook the massive metal gate, crushing it into a small ball.

Even the walls that were holding the gate in place got destroyed in an instant, as if they were made of paper.

The old guard was horrified after seeing this scene.

“S-such insane telekinesis!?”

As the old guard has been a warrior all his life, his experience is vast.

He immediately knew that the other party had used telekinesis, but this is the first time he has seen such an insanely strong telekinesis ability in person.

Before the old guard could think about anything, a man with an extremely cold expression on his face walked inside, throwing away the crushed metal door with his telekinesis.

Rainwater soaked the man’s dark purple hair, giving the impression that he had been wandering in the rain for a long time.

Not only was that man’s aura extremely suffocating, but even his dark purple eyes carried immense indifference and coldness in them.

The old guard wanted to shout and alert the people, but the man only glanced at him for a moment, making it difficult for him to breathe.

He dared not even move a little bit from his spot.

The man stopped for a second after seeing the old guard’s face, and he suddenly stretched out his hand to pat the old guard’s shoulder.

“Old man Olin… You should go home early today…”

The guard was taken aback after hearing that unknown man say his name, but as if a sudden memory came back to his head, he immediately understood who that unknown man was.

But before the old guard could say anything else, the man had already walked away inside the mansion.

“N-no way… t-that was… that was…”

The old man didn’t delay; he immediately packed his stuff and left for home.

He took Jareth’s words seriously and didn’t stay there for long. He has his grandchildren waiting for him at home; he can’t risk his life here.

…

Jareth ignored the elderly guard’s retreating figure and pushed his mana into the ground.

[Basic Magic: Mana Detection!]

‘Ten grade-4 warriors patrolling the area… thirty ordinary guards, and then there is a grade-3 mage inside the mansion… likely that old butler…’

Jareth’s mana control is at an extreme level due to his mana singularity; thus, when he uses mana detection, none can sense his prying eyes and none can dodge his perception.

He’s like an unstoppable force that you can’t guard against if he tries to spy on you.

‘As for that basement…’

After determining the strength of the entire mansion, Jareth used his detection skills to bypass all protective magic barriers and search the mansion’s underground area.

He immediately found the hidden basement, and sure enough, it had already collapsed.

‘Even with legendary rank skills… even with the power of a system, I still couldn’t save a corpse?… Sigh… This world really is something; if you aren’t careful for one moment, you lose things that are dear to you…’

Jareth shook his head and removed the night witch’s grimoire from his space ring.

[Basic Magic: Mana Constraints!]

Jareth’s spells have an extremely wide effective range due to mana singularity.

Thus, he easily pin-pointed the location of all guards and warriors with his mana detection and then accurately bound them on the spot in an instant.

‘The useless distractions are gone; let’s move on to the main course…’

With a cold expression on his face, Jareth walked towards the main door of the mansion and crushed the door with his telekinesis, just like how he did with the outer main gate.

“You are finally here! I almost dozed off while waiting for you! Your rat-”

[Basic Magic: Silence!]

Jareth didn’t even bother listening to the ranting of a spoiled brat; he simply used the silence spell on his half-brother and made him silent.

He then glanced around and found that quite a few grade-3 warriors and mages were standing in ambush.

But Jareth already knew about them all from his earlier detection, so he wasn’t much surprised.

Those warriors and wizards were recruited by Kaiden because he wanted to add extra protection for his son.

Although he was already very sure that Jareth wouldn’t deny his offer to save his mother’s corpse, he still wanted to plan ahead.

Kaiden never expected that Jareth would neglect his mother’s corpse in the end and will attack him indiscriminately.

After Kaiden’s death, his son immediately destroyed Jareth’s mother’s corpse before assembling his minions to fight Jareth.

But, unlike Kaiden, this new head of the family is still quite inexperienced, and he thinks that many grade-3 mages and warriors can deal with a grade-2 mage if they attack together.

[Basic Magic: Mana Suppression!]

Mana suppression is a very weak and useless spell in the basic magic category; its only use is to suppress weak creatures like insects into a confined box by forcefully suppressing their mana.

Although this spell is weak in the hands of others, it’s extremely powerful in Jareth’s hands as he holds ‘Mana Singularity’.

Once Jareth cast that spell, all of the wizards and mages that were about to attack Jareth immediately fell to the ground, and their heads were directly pressed against the floor.

A massive mana pressure forced them all to kneel in Jareth’s direction as if he were the Supreme Being here, and they had to pray to him for their survival.

Jareth didn’t care about the panicked look on his half-brother’s face when he got pressed to the ground by Jareth’s mana suppression magic, and he directly walked over towards him and placed his feet on his head.

“Rat, you say? I think that word suits you better, no?… oh wait, calling you a rat will be a huge disrespect to the rats of this world… You are a mistake born from the pathetic genes of your trash parents…”

*Bam!*

With all his strength, Jareth raised his feet and kicked his half-brother’s head, causing the floor to shatter, his nose to break, and small pieces of broken floor tile to pierce his right eye, destroying his eyeball.

Blood flowed out of his nose and shattered his eyeball. Instantaneously, a look of pain appeared on the guy’s face.

But he couldn’t do anything at all; he couldn’t even dodge Jareth’s attack as his mana suppression spell was forcefully making him kneel.

Moreover, Jareth has used ‘Active Heal’ continuously in the past few days, due to which his body has become extremely strong recently.

Thus, the damage his kicks can do to a defenseless mage like this guy is very high.

“Aleid! My son, Aleid! Stop!! Stop you trash-”

Jareth waved his hand and made that woman shut up with his ‘silence’ spell in an instant.

After witnessing her son’s injuries, the woman hurriedly descended from the upper floor.

Jareth wasn’t going to let her go once she showed her face in front of him.

He used his telekinesis to make her float, and then he immediately made her face collide with the floor at an immense speed.

*Crack!*

Her jaw broke apart in an instant from that strong attack, and tears appeared in her old eyes.

But Jareth remained indifferent to it all.

He squatted down, grabbed Aleid’s hair, and forcefully made him look at his mother.

“As an older brother, let me demonstrate to you how it feels to see your mother get killed right in front of your eyes… Don’t worry, I have experience in this field…”

Aleid wanted to scream and beg for mercy, but the ‘silence’ spell didn’t even let him scream.

“Yes, exactly! At the time of my mother’s death, I couldn’t even scream for help! That’s exactly it!! You have talent, little guy! You are learning it fast!!”

A crazed smile appeared on Jareth’s face as he waved his hand once again and caused that woman to hit the floor again and again!

He did this until she was about to lose consciousness.

And all this time, he forced Aleid to look at all of this.

“I had no grudges against you, little guy… but you went ahead and did what you shouldn’t have… If you had left my mother’s corpse intact, I could have spared your life…. But yeah, you brought all of this on yourself…”

[Grade-5 Fire Magic: Slow-burning Flame of Torture!]

Jareth waved his hand, and a small magic circle appeared below the woman.

Dark purple flames burst out of the magic circle and started to slowly burn the body of that woman.

The woman wasn’t even able to scream to express her pain; only her bloodshot and tearful eyes could express the immense torture she was suffering.

“That slow-burning flame is a torture method… You know what? I learned it just so I could one day use it on you all… Isn’t my magic beautiful?”

The more Jareth talked, the more crazy his expression became, as if he were possessed by a demon, his face looked like a sadist serial killer at that moment.

Aleid shed tears of blood when seeing his mother’s face, which was twisting from sheer pain as she wasn’t even able to express it.

That fire lasted a whole ten minutes; eventually, it burned the woman and turned her into ashes, and it didn’t even leave her bones intact.

She died an extremely horrible and traumatizing death.

Aleid was already on the verge of going insane after he was able to do nothing to save his mother’s life.

His happy memories with his mother flashed by in his eyes as he saw her die in such horrible way.

“Yeah, that’s the expression, Aleid! Exactly!! That’s exactly how I felt when your father got my mother killed… doesn’t this feeling seem quite overwhelming?”

Seeing that Aleid had already lost his sanity at that point, Jareth smiled in satisfaction and nodded his head.

“Yes, any sane person will lose their mind if something like this happened to them… I was a rare one… I pulled through that trauma and came back to haunt you guys…”

A look of satisfaction appeared on Jareth’s face and a rare smile hung on his face.

He threw another ‘slow burning flame at Aleid and burned him to death too.
