Free Web NovelChapter 12: The Butcher’s Second Chance
The moment Amon gave the order to sign in, the system flashed slightly, then...
[Congratulations, due to traversing through time and altering your fate, you have received a generous reward.]
[10x Coupon: a one-time-use object that increases your strength to 10x that of your opponent for a duration of one minute.]
Amon’s eyes trembled as he read the words on the system screen.
He clenched his fist.
It was exactly what he needed.
With the coupon, as long as he could become ten times stronger than Davie, he would easily be able to eliminate him.
Amon felt a slight wave of excitement rise in his chest.
He informed his wife of his brief departure before leaving with brisk steps.
There was no time to waste. He had to be done with this as soon as possible.
Besides...
The blood of the butcher was already roaring to kill someone!
Amon placed the cute cat mask over his face, wore the leather suit, then began calmly heading in the same direction as before.

Everything progressed as before.
The police arrived, and the heretics threatened them with the lives of the little children.
However, there was a slight difference in this timeline.
As Amon watched from behind a building, he noticed that the little girl who had sent him back in time was nowhere to be found.
He furrowed his brows slightly, wondering how he would meet her again to help her sister.
’She said her sister entered an SSS-rank dungeon?’ Amon muttered to himself.
If he had to guess, there were likely only a few SSS-rank dungeons on planet Earth.
So he just needed to explore them all and find her.
Making his decision internally, Amon finally walked out just as things were about to get chaotic.
The air seemed to freeze as the figure of the tall man with the cute cat-faced mask walked out calmly.
His sword scraped against the ground, thundering in everyone’s chest.
"The butcher?"
"La— ladies and gentlemen... a—are you seeing what we’re seeing?" the announcer in the helicopter focused his camera more intently on the butcher’s frame.
"Is the butcher actually part of the demon child faction?" he muttered subconsciously, his hand trembling slightly as he held the camera.
Joy’s eyes widened in shock.
The butcher whom she had been searching for all this while had so casually appeared like he didn’t have a care in the world?
She hesitated slightly on whether to apprehend him, but ultimately decided to put her plans on hold.
The children were the priority for now.
After that, she could focus on capturing him.
At least he had finally revealed himself.
And she wasn’t going to miss this chance!
The butcher wasn’t saying a single word.
The silence alone caused a chill to spread through the surroundings.
He walked past the armed forces van and continued toward the location of the heretics.
"Y—you... what are you trying to do?" Jordan asked, trying to hide his surprise.
He was currently an E-rank hunter.
Although it wasn’t too strong, the pressure he felt from Amon was enough to make him understand that he couldn’t contend with him.
Amon was similarly an E-rank hunter. However, due to his enhanced strength brought about by the divine physique, sword, and technique, he was far stronger than those on the same level.
The moment he closed the distance, reaching a few meters away from Jordan...
The young man narrowed his eyes at Amon.
"You better stand right there if you don’t want this little kid to lose his pitiful li—" a crazed look began appearing on his face, but it was quickly cut short.
Blood sprayed instantly like a shower.
Everyone’s eyes widened in terror.
The camera became slightly shaky, revealing the horror of the scene.
Jordan’s head had vanished...
Not sliced apart. Not destroyed. Vanished.
It had simply completely vanished.
Amon’s anger surged through the skies due to the immense rage he felt for failing previously.
He was eager. His blood was roaring for Davie to arrive.
Seeing that their leader had been instantly killed, the others, with trembling hands, wanted to quickly kill the children, but the butcher was faster...
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Attacks exploded violently, and in the next instant, the group of six were dead.
A wave of silence descended on the crowd.
The only sounds that could be heard were the sobbing of the children, who were filled with terror from the previous situation they had been in.
Joy raised the weapon in her hand and pointed it at the butcher, but paused slightly. She was hesitant.
Staring at the butcher’s back, she was filled with dread. Her palms grew sweaty as she watched him begin dragging the corpses together.
She knew what this was.
They all knew.
The butcher’s signature move...
Suddenly, at the exact moment the butcher had gathered the bodies together, a sharp whistling sound echoed, followed by the sound of something being pierced.
Bang!
Everyone’s pupils shrank in horror as a spear appeared from the distance and pierced straight through the butcher’s chest.
The butcher remained standing as the spear hummed slightly before violently returning to its owner.
A man with dark brown-blond hair casually stepped out from the forest not too far away, catching the spear in his grasp as he stared intently at the butcher.
"You killed my playthings. It’s only right that I kill you." The man licked his lips and calmly walked toward Amon.
It was the same scene from before.
It happened exactly as it did in his previous life. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Blood trickled from the corners of Amon’s lips, but he didn’t feel any anger... instead, a wave of excitement surged through his heart.
He noticed that the man was at D-rank. However, with the aid of the mythical-rank skill he possessed, he could rival a few who were at C-rank.
Suddenly, Davie’ eyes narrowed as he sensed something.
"You’re... still alive."
His pupils constricted sharply.
How could someone still be alive after being pierced clean through?
Davie was shocked, staring at the butcher who still stood there, watching him with cold, ruthless eyes, his back as straight as ever.
"I’ll just have to aim for your heart then," he said calmly, twisting the spear in his grasp.
’I don’t think you’ll ever get that chance...’ Amon said lightly.
He no longer suppressed his aura.
’System, use the 10x Coupon.’
The moment the coupon was used, a wave of bloodlust swept through the crowd.
Goosebumps climbed up their skin at lightning speed.
"What is this deadly pressure?" Joy subconsciously took a step back, her face growing pale.
She had suddenly lost all the will to fight!
Davie narrowed his eyes slightly, finally taking Amon seriously.
’It seems I’ll have to use my mythical-ranked skill...’ he muttered to himself.
Amon, on the other hand, felt the passage of time.
He had just one minute, but it was enough.
’I was unable to use this skill before since I was at E-rank, but now...’
Amon brandished his sword slightly.
’Void Severing Sword Art.’
The light in the sky dimmed.
The world shattered.
The sun froze, and the skies held their breath.
