Physics The Greatest Magic

"Who's this kid?" Asked the boss 

The elf girl, was also surprised, she stared at the boy with a confused expression. Meanwhile, the man who was about to make the report, started to tremble in fear as he looked at the boy 

"I-It's him!" He said with a terrified expression 

"Him? Listen kid, I don't know how you got here, but you've run out of luck... Hey you, subdue him. Let's sell this kid along with the elf" Said the boss 

However the man didn't listen, he was too afraid of the boy, that's because it was the one who put him in a complete, and empty darkness. It was john. 

"Tch, do I have to do everything myself?" Asked the boss as he got up 

He slowly walked towards john, whiile the elf just stood beside the chair and watched. She was trying to say something, but her voice wouldn't stop shaking, she was too afraid of what the boss would do to her, if she spoke out of line. 

"R...R...Run... Run!" She shouted after forcing the words out of her mouth 

 John who heard this showed her a smile, and gestured her to wait a bit. She thought he was crazy, a man twice his size and frame was walking towards him, and he's not even shaking. She felt bad, but was too scared to help him. If she was caught again, she would definitely be punished and treated worse than she currently is. 

The boss who heard her, gave her a glare which sent shivers down her spine, seeing this, she instinctively looked away 

The boss then turned back to the kid in front of him, who hadn't said a single word, and placed his hand over the john's head 

"Look, you've ruined my mood for today, so I'm going to have to kill you... It's unfair but it's just how thingsl ike this work. Sorry kid." 

The moment he said that, he tried to slam john's head straight into the ground. But despite his effort, john wouldn't budge 

"Huh?" The boss said with a confused expression 

Then in a single blink, half the boss's arm which was placed over john's head, was cut off in a single motion, caused by john after he pulled out his dagger 

The arm dropped to the floor. Confused, the boss stared at his hand which had fallen, he didn't couldn't understand what had just happened. A surge of pain followed after with a burning sensation on his arm.

That's when he finally realised. in fear, he instinctively dropped to the ground and began to move away from john, he looked over at the half of his arm, that was still attached and felt like puking. 

He couldn't believe it, his arm was cut off, by a kid... Not only that, but no blood was coming out. It hurt like hell. 

The elf girl who watched, couldn't believe what she was seeing, and the man silently watched with widened eyes. 

"Y-You BASTARD! W-What did you do!?!" The boss shouted out in fury 

Ignoring the boss, John began to talk 

"You know, when I first woke up, I genuinely believed that every person's life had value, I'd always hear people saying, you shouldn't wish harm to fall on others, or, Killing is bad... And I believed that, and to this day I still do." 

"W-What?" Asked the boss 

"I do, but... when I look at guys like you, I sometimes think, that may not be completely true. People who freely cause harm on others, kill them, use them, all for their own benefit and gain, and enjoy it... There's only one word I can associate people like you with... Trash. Therefore, it should be fine right? If I get rid of you, I'll be doing the world a favor... Master does it easily, so how hard can it be?" 

The boss was panting heavily, he thought the kid in front of him was crazy, so much that it terrified him. He instinctively began shouting out for help 

"GUARDS! GUARDS! WE'RE UNDER ATTACK! HELP!!" 

But there was no reply. John who saw this, raised his hand and began to gather wind slightly over it as he muttered 

"Ventus Tormentum" 

The wind burst out, lifting up the tenting, which was over their heads and throwing it out of balance and causing it to fall over, no longer covering them, allowing them to perfectly see what was outside. 

The boss, the elf, and the man couldn't believe what they were seeing, it terrified them. All three of them. 

Dark cubes of ice formed, around them. There were around 3 cubes, and they all covered a certain area, which was full of bandits. The slaves were no longer in the cage and were waiting outside of the tent, and only a single bandit, could be seen. 

He was kneeled with his arms tied up, in front of the group of slaves, begging for forgiveness. 

John who saw this, shadow stepped to bandit's side and whispered in his ear 

"They don't look like they've forgiven you... Remember what you said to one of them? Dance was it? Why don't you try that?" Asked john, before he suddenly shadow stepped back 

The bandit who heard john's opinion, got up and began to dance, as tears formed on his face, he cried out for them to forgive him 

Seeing this, John turned, towards the boss who had remained on the ground. He couldn't get up or run even if he wanted to, This was because his bones wouldn't stop shaking in fear and because john had cast Gravitas on him 

The elf was speechless, her expression showed that she had never seen anything like this before in her life. 

 The boss seeing, that he had no other choice, started to chant something. But john quickly noticed, and didn't let him finish. John shadow stepped to him, and placed his hand over the bosses mouth 

"Wai-" 

Before the boss could finish, john cast Glacio and froze it stiff 

The boss looked like he was in a lot of pain, but john didn't care. He was blinded by his rage. 

The boss began to shake his head, desperately, as if he were begging john to stop. But to this john simply brought his face closer and said 

"Did you stop when that girl you killed asked you to stop? Did you stop when all these slaves asked you to stop? Did you stop when they lost all hope of leaving? No, you enjoyed it didn't you? Why should I show remorse?" John asked as he unfroze his mouth 

"I-If you kill me, you'll be just like me, It'll haunt you! You'll regret it! Let me go and you'll never see me again, I promise, please" Said the boss as he desperately begged john to let him go 

John who heard this made a disappointed expression. 

"I guess, I was right... People don't change easily... I really didn't want ruin my day after the progress I had with Serena, but... if it means I can remove trash like you from the world, then I don't care." 

"W-Wait, P-Please, I-I'm sorry, I'll apologise, Wai-" 

Before he could say anything else, john pierced him straight in the heart, with his dagger. 

He tried to say something, but he had no more strength left, his life slowly left his eyes, and he died. After that john pulled the dagger out and looked at his dagger. 

He couldn't feel anything, even though he had just killed someone. Was it because of posession? 

John looked at the elf and her eyes, were afraid, not of the man john had killed but of john himself. Seeing this, John turned away and shadow stepped to the man, who was still begging for forgiveness 

"Did they forgive you?" John asked 

"Y-Yeah..." He replied 

John then looked towards the slaves and asked 

"Did you forgive him?" 

T-They slowly shook their heads. 

"So you lied?" John asked as he turned to the man 

"W-Wait I can expla-" 

John didn't let him finish and formed a dark ice cube around the man. 

"You beg for mercy when it's your turn... But laugh and enjoy it when its for others... You... And all the other bandits I rounded up... Shouldn't I just kill you all and be done with it?" Asked John 

Everyone watched as he raised his hand. 

"A massacre huh... Tene-" 

As john was about to lower his hand and cast dark ice spikes on the inside of all the ice cubes, where the bandits were rounded up. Someone grabbed on to his hand. 

"Let go." Said John 

John didn't need to look to know who it was, it was master. 

"No" Replied master 

John didn't need to look to know who it was, it was master. 

"They're trash, what's the point of letting them live?" Asked John 

"Did you find the medicine for serena yet?" Master asked 

"No, I'll look for it after killing them" John replied 

"And then what? What will you gain from killing everyone? Did you not already get your revenge? What more do you want?" Master asked 

"THEY'RE SCUM! If i don't end them who will? They'll just go back to doing this if we let them roam around." Said John

"I will." Said Master 

"Tch" John clicked his mouth at master as he turned and began walking away.

"I didn't teach you for you to become like me... Even I'm not proud of the things I've done. Go cool off and look for the medicine, I'll deal with the rest" 

The dark cubes dispersed into thin air, and the bandits which were inside looked confused. John, then walked towards one of the tents following his master's instruction 

He was then stopped by the elf girl he saved 

"Wait!" She said as she stood in front of him
