were gathering at the village’s fences, John rubbed the back of his head before directing his gaze towards Sarah. “This changes things. I was hoping to walk up and peacefully talk our way in, but to keep history from repeating itself and to give you some peace of mind, I think a little show of force is necessary.

“Something to make everyone think that if they even stare at you or Kelly, I’ll hunt them down without fail.”

Sarah’s head snapped up. Her piercing glare needed no words, but she said them anyway. “No deaths.”

John gave a nervous smirk and made his way towards the town. Without turning around, he waved his hand in the air before shouting, “If I can help it.”

“Does dad kill people often?” Kelly asked worriedly.

Sarah’s heart skipped a beat. It wasn’t a question she wanted to answer, but she knew it was best if she responded honestly.

“In this world, you’ll eventually have to kill somebody in self-defence, to defend your beliefs, protect your family, or many other reasons. Your dad… Well, how do I put it? He found a permanent solution that works for all problems with other people.”

John, who was still able to hear their conversation, was rather impressed by how Sarah softened her answer.

He looked at the people gathered outside the village and noticed none of them were equipped with any armour. They all wore holey clothes that had been patched up in some places and most of the equipment they had were long sticks with sharp stones attached to the ends.

Is the village that poor they can’t get weapons and armour for their fighters? What happens if a continuous bear comes out? It’ll eat a few people, walk away unharmed, and then come back later for seconds.

When John got to about forty feet away from the group, one of the older men walked forward and stopped roughly five feet away from him.

“Who’re you and what do you want?” the man asked.

John looked at him. The man, who looked to be in his mid-twenties, was carrying one of the group’s few metal weapons and his trousers were being held up by several strands of frayed twine tied around his skinny waist. His eyes and cheeks were sunken, making him look sickly.

John only smiled at the man before throwing a punch. Using as little strength as possible, John hit the man’s stomach which caused the man to lunge forward while holding his stomach. Then, he hit the back of the man’s head with the side of his palm which knocked him out.

John started walking towards the rest of the group after the man hit the floor.

Seeing that negotiations had failed, the group of people ran towards John while screaming.

The first man tried stabbing John with his makeshift spear, but John leaned to the left to dodge the thrust before he grabbed the weapon and snapped it in half. After that, John used the same tactics of hitting the stomach then the back of the head to knock the man out.

A few seconds later, John had already knocked out five people when a long axe was swung towards his waist.

Keeping his composure, John moved his back leg further away so his body could duck under the axe’s swing. When the long axe passed above him, John stood back up and rushed to the man to knock him out, too.

John got a lovely surprise a few moments later when someone standing inside the watchtower grabbed a bow and launched an arrow at him, using what little strength the malnourished man could muster.

He hadn’t dealt with ranged weapons since the tournament on the Sword Sect’s private planet. Arrows were a rare commodity because they needed to be created from stronger metals and other materials to have a chance of hurting or killing immortals. Because of this, the cost of creating arrows that you might not get back after one shot far outweighed the pros of using them.

John shoved his foot under the long axe the man had just dropped and lifted it into the air, catching it before it had a chance to fall.

He then moved the axe into the path of the arrow.

What nobody knew was that he used his threads to make it happen since he had never done that kind of stunt before. He did it this way to impress his daughter more.

After the arrow was lodged into a part of the wooden handle of the axe, John grabbed it and threw it to the guard inside the watchtower.

The arrow hit the ceiling of the watchtower as it flew only inches away from the guard’s head. A vibrant buzzing sound caught the guard’s attention as the arrow vibrated, causing his whole body to shake. His forehead started sweating and he collapsed to the floor in fear.

John took only a few more minutes to knock everybody out.

He started walking towards the second largest building inside the village as his Scan had picked up an old man with a long, shaggy beard sitting at a desk.

The old guy wore better clothes than the villagers and was slightly plump. It wasn’t wrong for John to make an educated guess that the elderly man was in charge of the village.

Sarah and Kelly started walking towards the town. Although Sarah had used her Scan to see everybody was only unconscious, she still checked everyone with her Life Vision to make sure that John hadn’t killed anyone.

To hide the fact that she knew everyone was alive without being near them from Kelly, Sarah walked up to each person and checked their pulse.

After checking the last person’s pulse, she turned to Kelly and smiled. “Your father didn’t kill anyone. That shows that he’s in complete control of his strength which is more difficult than you think. You might get to this stage in about fifteen years if you work hard.

“It also shows that he possesses the knowledge needed to do it. Strength isn’t just about training your body. It’s about training your mind
