Chapter 31: I Haven’t Been a Gangster in Years

The Sword Puppet was utterly confused. Vivian was dumbfounded.

Finally, after an unknown number of "returns," the flying head stopped coming back.

The Puppet and Vivian exchanged a glance. Without a word, the Puppet grabbed Vivian and leaped off the city wall. Zoom. They sprinted toward the origin of the flying head at Mach speed.

They had to know. What kind of force could make a High-Tier Demon Lord's head play a game of solo ping-pong for ten minutes straight?

Ten seconds later. They arrived at the commercial district.

And then, they saw The Scene.

Vivian’s jaw dropped so hard it nearly dislocated. (ΩДΩ) "HOLY SHIT!!"

On the ruined street... The Headless Knight's massive, headless body was curled up in a fetal position, shivering uncontrollably. His armor was shattered, scattered everywhere like confetti. His dark skin and hairy chest were exposed to the elements.

Standing next to him... Was a slender young man.

In one hand, he held the Demon's head by the hair. With his foot... Stomp. Stomp. Stomp. He was rhythmically stomping on the Knight’s body.

The three-meter-tall demon was covered in bruises. Every stomp made him twitch. And the head in the young man's hand was crying. Like, actually bawling.

Thump. Thump. Thump. Every kick shook the ground.

At the same time, they could hear the young man scolding the demon like a disappointed parent.

"Will you do it again? Huh? Do you still dare to step on Daddy's ice cream?"

"You dare act so arrogant in front of your Father? Did you eat a leopard's gall for breakfast?!"

"Believe it or not, I will beat the shit out of you!"

"Useless trash. You pissed me off. You are a disgrace to all demons! You made the Abyss lose face!"

"SQUAT DOWN!"

With every shout, Vivian and the Sword Puppet’s eyes bulged further. Their brains went blank. The visual impact was equivalent to a nuclear explosion in their minds.

It was like watching an ant standing over an elephant. The ant was cursing and kicking the elephant with its tiny legs. And the elephant was trembling in fear, crying for mercy.

It defied logic. It defied reality.

"Spare me! Please spare me! I won't do it again! (Sobbing)"

The Headless Knight's head, which was being dribbled like a basketball, wailed. o(╥﹏╥)o

The emotion in his voice was so sincere, so raw. It made listeners want to weep in sympathy. To make a High-Tier Demon Lord beg like this... This wasn't a battle. This was Abuse. Naked, unadulterated bullying.

"Now you know how to beg?" "Where did your arrogance go?"

"Do you know how long I kept that ice cream cone in my hand?"

"I haven't flexed my power in years, but you just HAD to test me, didn't you?!"

Lynn shouted as he delivered another kick. Bam.

The Headless Knight cried harder. O(╥﹏╥)o! I am cheap! I am scum! Why did I provoke this monster?! Stop hitting me! Please! I can't take it anymore!

Finally. Lynn seemed tired. He slammed the head onto the ground, sat on it like a stool, and sighed.

He reached into his robe, pulled out a cigarette (probably magic), and lit it. Fwoosh.

He took a deep drag and exhaled a perfect smoke ring.

"I haven't been a Gangster Boss in many years..." "But today... you forced my hand... You simply didn't put me in your eyes..."

Beneath him, Axus (the head) was sobbing quietly. If he knew this human was such a terror... he would have stayed in the Abyss and farmed potatoes!

In the distance, Vivian and the Sword Puppet were petrified.

Vivian mumbled, "G-Grandpa Puppet... what am I seeing?" Sword Puppet whispered, "A High-Tier Demon Lord... is being... bullied..."

He couldn't find a better word. This wasn't combat. This was a Dad beating his unruly Son. A complete, one-sided massacre.

"I... I tell you!" Axus cried, trembling. "You... bullying me like this... you won't have a good end! When my Master descends, you... you..."

Lynn stopped smoking. He looked down.

Buzz. His dead-fish eyes suddenly emitted a terrifying pressure.

Axus: (ΩДΩ) "Wait! Wait! A gentleman uses his mouth, not his hands! I was just joking! Don't take it seriously!"

Too late. Lynn stood up, grabbing the head by the hair. He grabbed a nearby wooden stool with his other hand.

Before Axus could react... [ 360-Degree Thomas Spin Home Run Swing! ]

WHACK!

"It flew away again!!" Vivian screamed.

The head rocketed into the sky, screaming in high-pitched agony. The scream pierced the clouds and traveled for miles.
