The Mech Lord

"Crackle!"

Lightning flashed over Leo's head as he continued to move with his body entirely drenched in water. His shop had been burnt but his house was still intact. He wanted to go and search, look out for something which could possibly give him some idea about his father.

"Arthur, activate [Enhance].." Leo said as his feet began to move faster and faster. He wanted to see just how this thing worked.

[Command noted..]

[Activating Enhance..]

A cyan glow suddenly began to emerge beneath Leo's skin and suddenly, he felt his connection with his body growing stronger. It really was a weird feeling. His feet suddenly began to move even faster while his muscles began to contract and relax with a greater power. His senses seemed to have strengthened as well and he felt clear headed.

His heartbeat on the other hand rose at a rapid rate as well, till the point where he could feel it even without touching his chest.

….

"Huff! Huff!''

"Its effect is really greater than I thought I initially thought it to be." Leo muttered under his breathe as he pushed his wet bangs behind. He couldn't help but give himself another glance in the window pane of a rundown car parked near his house.

"I really look good…" He couldn't help but praise himself before walking towards the entrance of his house and planning to quietly sneaking in. After all, there shouldn't be anyone in the house. If he alerted the neighbors then that would really be troublesome to deal with

Leo walked up to his door and picked the plant pot beside before pulling the plant out off it and taking the spare key which he had hidden in there.

"Click!"

The door opened and as soon as Leo entered the place, he knew someone had been in there. The place had been flipped all over. Things were all lying around the place as if someone had robbed the place.

Leo immediately went looking around the house and most of the valuables were gone. It definitely seemed like a robbery, but was it really one?

After witnessing what had happened with his father earlier, he really doubted if it was so simple. Those guys were definitely not here just to kill his father because if they really were to, there wasn't a need to for all the chatting. They were definitely looking something from him.

What could it possibly be?

"So, it was true that a pest managed to bypass my eyes?"

Leo suddenly felt a chill rising up his spine and he immediately moved but he was a tad too slow. A red colored blade formed of Arora energy slid through his left shoulder severing his entire limb and and blood splashed as Leo tumbled over and crashed onto the wooden floor.

The pain almost made him scream his brains out.

It really hurt like hell!

But Leo gritted his teeth and even with sweat and blood pouring out of his body and didn't release a single squeak. He was afraid, if his scream managed to get the neighbors here then he might be pulling them in the danger as well.

[Critical Damage detected to left limb…]

[Alert!]

[Your body is losing is blood rapidly..]

[Will die in 30 minutes if nothing is done..]

Leo wasn't even the right condition to pay attention to his voice. The pain was really killing him. But he still endured it and slowly turned his head while enduring the pain to have a look at the man's face, 'Scan him Arthur..'

[Scanning..]

[The person is way above your Level to gain any knowledge about his power and skills. My Directory lacks necessary support system to help in the scanning opponent.]

[Knowledge on Physical Characteristics had been retrieved instead…]

[Showing…]

[Height: 188 cm]

[Weight: 78 Kg]

[Skin tone: 3 points below Neck and 8 points above Neck]

[Deformities: Left shoulder is 4 cm lower than the right one, most likely due to injuries]

[Skin tone has a huge change below and above the neck. Suspecting the person to have some kind of disguise on.]

No wonder he was showing his face out in the open, while he had covered the tattoo on his arm this time.

"Hmmn?" The person looked at Leo in surprise. He couldn't believe that kid was enduring the pain without making the slightest of noise. But what annoyed him most was those eyes glaring at him as if he only needed a chance to tear him apart.

"What are you looking at?'' The man kicked Leo and even though held it back, the force immediately broke two of his ribs. After all, the Red colored aura meant that the man was at least a Lv 31 Titled.

People at that level could become Mech Pilot's in Armies anywhere in Universe!

"I was careless. To think that no one would dare to sneak up on us in the burning house and even rescue that guy. Do you know how much trouble your actions has caused me?" the man said with a menacing smile. It seemed he was really pissed.

He slowly took a step forward as the red energy blade once again extended from his palm.

Leo slowly used his remaining hand to crawl backwards trying to make a futile struggle. There seemed too be a strong will inside him which was screaming at him not to give up. He didn't know why but even at this moment, he could think clearly. There was fear no doubt about it but it hadn't clouded his mind.

"You wanna struggle? Good then, show me what you have got…" The man said with a amused look on his face as he waved his energy blade towards Leo once again.

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

None of the blades struck any vital points but left cut all over Leo's body as blood gushed out of them. Yet, he gritted his teeth with all his might only letting out a small squeak in pain.

"You stubborn brat. You really are spoiling my mood here." The man didn't seem to be liking Leo's tough behavior at all. He looked at Leo and the next instant, he seemed to have noticed something, "What's with the disguise? You are not a human?"

The rain had melted away the make up on Leo's face and now it had finally come under the guy's notice.

"Who are you? What relation do you have with this family?" The man's expression changed and the aura around him changed. He seemed to have deemed the situation to be more serious than he initially had thought it to be.

"I was just passing by and helped," Leo said as he began to feel dizzy. He had lost too much blood.

"You want me to believe that? Who sent you here? You better be honest or you won't have a peaceful death.." The man said with a threatening smile as he looked at Leo and waved his energy blade leaving a few more deeper cut on Leo's body and this time they were more serious ones.

Leo already knew that he had made the wrong decision by coming too this place in haste. His immature decision was going to lead to his demise today, 'Arthur analyze the situation, find me a chance to get out of here. I don't care how low the possibility is..'

[Analyzing..]

"Your eyes really make me irritated? Do you think you can still survive?" The man said as he was about to attack, he stopped and smiled the next instant as if he had remembered something interesting.

"Let me tell you something. The person you saved, will be dying soon. Someone has already gone their to finish the remaining work. So, you not only failed to rescue him but even managed to lose your life while at it. Isn't that funny kid?" The man laughed and stooped low before pulling Leo up by his hairs. "Now then, will you confess who sent you here or will you prefer some different kind of treatment."

Leo's expression had turned extremely ugly as soon as he had heard about someone going towards the hospital.

The man shook his head and laughed in joy seeing Leo's expression, "Now this is what I was talking abou-"

"Shnk!"

Before he could complete his sentence, Leo's right hand moved and his energy burst forth through his fingers as it penetrated into the man's left eye.

"Aaahhh!!!"

A terrifying screamed escaped through his mouth. One that could raise people's hair and sent chills running through them.

Even though he had said at the beginning about letting his guard down allowing Leo to rescue Von, he still had made the same mistake again.

'I love you Arthur!' Leo praised the guy.

Arthur was on the point when he informed Leo that the man's muscle were in a relaxed state, he had let his guard down. There was a 35% chances of a successful sneak attack and it could further increase up to 50% if the man took his eyes off of Leo for a second and was distracted by something.

And the guy turned out to be one of those who would close his eyes while having a good laugh.

"Charge!"

Leo activated his skill and electric current suddenly ran through his hand and entered the man's eyes.

Even if he was only Lv 1 Awake, there was no way that an attack like that was easy to bear for even for a Lv 31 Titled.

When Leo finally exhausted his energy, the man finally fell flat on his back and seemed to have been paralyzed by the current. But his energy was still coiling around him, if Leo dare to get near him, there was chances that he would definitely be sliced apart by the evil guy.

It took all pf Leo's will power for him to get back on his feet and get out of the place as he tried to escape with a missing arm in the heavy rain. His entire being was close to collapsing, but he clenched his teeth hard and tried to contact Kyle with his smart link.

He had to warn him of the danger.

But unfortunately, there was no response from the other side. This only made Leo worried.

[You have lost too much blood. Your body will collapse within next five minutes if nothing is done..]

Arthur's voice rang in his head, but Leo could do nothing about it. His mind was only focused on getting back to the hospital.

He had only walked for a minute when Leo felt a chaotic energy approaching from behind. The man with a bleeding eye had finally caught up with him. Veins were popping out on his face and he looked as if he had gone crazy in rage.

Leo tried to move away from his path but he wasn't a match for his speed at all. The man was finally serious.

Leo couldn't even see his movements at all and before he knew it, a kick had landed on his abdomen and sank into his body as if it was made of sand.

"Whoosh!"

Blood splashed out of Leo's mouth as he went flying through the watery streets and crashed into the traffic pole with a clanging noise before coming to a stop.

"You really have angered me now kid. It won't stop here now. I will find all your family members and send them to accompany you soon. Just wait up there and regret poking your nose in other people's affair." The man didn't seem to have any further plan to talk. It seemed after letting his guard down twice, he had understood it well not to underestimate anyone.

Leo saw the man walk towards him like a grim reaper before raising his hand and stabbing a energy blade right towards his chest.

Leo could only smile wryly, he hadn't even figure out all the things and he was close to death again. But why was it that he didn't feel that much fear. If it was earlier, he would have definitely freaked out having a nervous breakdown.

And yet he was here looking straight towards the blade which was about to penetrate his heart.

The blade which was about to take Leo's life suddenly pause for a fraction of a second and the next instant the man's expression changed and he immediately backed away as a green bolt of lighting came shooting down on him.

"Bang!"

The water on the street rose into the air as figure slammed into the ground with a long curved blade in his hand. The Arora energy surrounding him was green in color signifying that he had definitely managed to reach at least Lv 21 becoming Magnate.

But that wasn't what surprised Leo. It was just that his figure kind of resembled like….

The new guy suddenly turned his head to look at Leo, "Its been a while little brother, I hope you had run enough..."
