After a booming laugh, he then launched himself toward Gerald!
Gerald, however, was now much faster than him. In one swift move, he grabbed hold of the young man’s head before tearing it right off his body!
The others could only widen their eyes in disbelief as the decapitated body—that was now spurting a fountain of blood from the neck—flopped to the ground.
“…W-what?!” roared Hendrik as Gerald tossed his son’s head—which still retained a frozen expression of shock—to the side.
At that moment, nobody at the table dared to even make a move in their immense shock. Hendrik himself was simultaneously flabbergasted, distressed, and extremely heartbroken by the sudden turn of events.
Not too long after, he managed to snap out of it and the second he did, he immediately stood up trembling. The immensely distressed man felt great pain from his aching heart as he cried out, “M-my son…!”
He truly hadn’t expected that Gerald would possess such great strength! However, it was far too late for regrets now.
Gerald had already killed his only son!
It was at that moment when screams filled the room as the dancing girls finally snapped out of their horrified states and immediately began scattering to get out of there! Even the servant—who had earlier been trying to stop Gerald from entering—instantly turned around to run after witnessing Gerald’s terrifying strength.
To his utter dismay, he was only a few steps away when he felt Gerald’s hand on him! Fear was the last emotion he felt as Gerald took in a deep breath…
And just like that, the servant felt like millions of tiny explosions were simultaneously taking place all over his body! Though he was now still standing in place, the others watched in horror as a strange red mist began seeping out of every orifice on his body! By the time Gerald’s attack was done, the young servant’s body appeared to have been sucked dry and was now nothing but a shriveled up black corpse!
How absolutely horrifying and cruel! Frightened to death by all this, everyone’s fight or flight instinct was instantly triggered.
Run. They needed to get the hell out of this place!
