My Yandere Wives are Transcendents

"Hello, Mr. Asher Eli. We've been searching for you for almost a day" a voice echoed from the shadows.

'Thud'

Eli hit the ground with a thud, eyes shut, focusing on sensing his surroundings through his arts.

'Those soldiers really are persistent—hmm? Wait...they don't feel like soldiers?' Eli pondered.

"4, 10, no, 35…Hmm, 60-" Eli counted the unknown figures surrounding him.

"Wrong, Mr. Asher Eli. We brought 100 members" A figure emerged from the shadows.

"100…ah? When did I become popular?" Eli mused with an amused smile.

"What are you mumbli—"

"Oh, it must be my interview…ah, I feel so touched!" Eli exclaimed with mock excitement.

"Sigh, do you think we don't know what you're up to?" The figure spoke sternly, dispelling the illusion Eli created to distract them.

"Your techniques, we've all seen them, Mr. Asher Eli" the figure continued, stepping into the sun shade which was about to set, revealing a tight black dress but not concealing their face.

"Whom might you be?" Eli asked casually, sensing their location but unable to see or feel their appearance.

"We? We are nothing but pawns who came here to get you" That figure said with a smug smile, their posture hinting at authority.

Eli felt he might be the leader of the group, 'And what's so proud about it?' He wanted was ask but Eli asked something important.

"…Me? Why?" Eli questioned with a frown, already guessing it was related to a certain Kitty An---

"Prisania"

"…Prisania?" Eli echoed, deepening his frown.

"Yes, we were ordered to bring that woman who failed her mission and is now acting as a mere maid" The leader explained sluggishly.

"…." Eli stared in the direction of the voice, 'I was sure that I never let her out of the Nex…Hmm…then someone inside knows her?' Eli frowned and asked,

"So, You guys want her?"

"Yes, as long as you hand her over, we can solve it peaceful--"

"ARHH!!"

The sudden scream interrupted.

"Peaceful…ah? If you've already seen it, then you know what's going to happen...right?" Eli said with a sinister smile, plucking the heart from one of the attackers.

"You will regret this!!….Attack Him!!"

Eli sensed the impending attacks, his smirk never fading.

Mana Breathing

Deep Inhale

"Plasma Arts: 1st Form"

'Spark, Spark'

….

…

..

After a few minutes, the grassland was painted with red blood, flesh splattered around, the smell of iron permeating the soft air. The dying rays of the setting sun cast long shadows over the gruesome scene, accentuating the horror that unfolded.

"H-Hey, W-What the-cough-He-Hell are you?" The Leader screamed, his voice shaky and terror-stricken after witnessing the bloodbath and the fallen comrades, 'W-We collected every piece of intel about his fighting style in the dungeon from our internal source, and yet...'

'Thud'

Hearing the terrified voice, Eli turned his head before casually discarding the lifeless body that bore a gaping hole in its chest. The crunching sound of footsteps on the soft earth punctuated the eerie silence that enveloped the plains.

Eli's hands were stained a deep crimson, his legs and clothing drenched in the viscous liquid.

What the assassination team had gathered was solely based on the Dungeon incident. They devised a plan to handle Eli, using individual elemental holders to counter his arts.

Everything went according to their plan until Eli brutally started to kill everyone with brutal force and martial techniques.

'Fuck! He is different from what they showed us...W-We should go for Plan-B' Leader screamed in his mind.

"I am not the same person you saw, right?" Eli's voice was cold, devoid of emotion, as he addressed the trembling Leader.

"I-I.."

"Don't worry. Even I never thought I could easily kill all of you....hmmm...must be due to experience...I guess?" Eli's pondering voice seemed to irritate Leader even more.

'If experience could transform someone this drastically, then I, who worked for decades, should be a master assassin!!!!' Leader screamed in his mind, realizing they didn't factor in Eli's drastic growth.

'N-No, no one could change in one day' Leader thought, feeling a sense of dread washing over him.

"Well, whatever...You don't understand, do you?" Eli's emotionless voice echoed in the quiet aftermath of the carnage.

"W-What?" Fear gripped the leader of the group.

"It doesn't matter how many people you brought with you.

It doesn't matter who you are.

It doesn't matter where you are from..."

With each word, Eli walked slowly towards the Leader whose legs were pulled to the ground.

'Step, Step, Step...'

Eli stood before the person,

"Once you target my woman, you won't ever see tomorrow" Eli's voice carried a deadly tone as he was about to extract the leader's heart with his blood-soaked hand when,

"I-I have a Ho-Hostage!!" The Leader desperately screamed.

"..." Eli momentarily stopped, a frown etched on his face, 'Hostage?'

"Who?" Eli asked.

"H-Hah-haha..If-If you let me go, I w--AARRHHH!!" The Leader, on the verge of relief, suddenly felt his right hand being torn asunder.

'Splash'

'Thud'

"Who?" Eli's tone remained eerily calm, his crimson-soaked hand still hovering menacingly over the leader.

"H-Hey, I-I have a hostage you sho--ARRRHHH!!"

'Splash'

'Thud'

"Who?"

Leader realized this psychopathic man would never listen to him.

"I-I..P-Pleas-ARRRHHH!!" The leader who was on the verge of begging suddenly felt his left torn by the ground.

"W.H.O?" Eli pressed each letter with a lifeless tone.

'You fucking bitch!! Let me speak first!!!!' The Leader's inner scream went unnoticed, for he had already lost his ability to fight against Eli.

"O-Old C-Couple -Ha- you Vi-Visited" The Leader answered, struggling to maintain consciousness.

"Old Couple?...Wei, Mei?" Eli frowned, stepping back slightly.

"Y-Yes, that Mei and Wei" The Leader, clinging to a glimmer of hope, said, "If you let me go, I will--'arrffff'"

Eli caught Leader's neck, lifting him from the ground. Tilting his head, Eli asked, "Why would I?"

"Hu-? A-Aren't-cough-they---"

"Nope, they are just strangers to me" Eli tightened his grip on Leader's neck, displaying no hesitation in his emotions or words.

Seeing this, 'Fuck, Fuck, Fuck!!' Leader screamed internally, just about to divert Eli when,

"P-Please le-rrh--me----"

'Swiikkk'

'Swwikkk'

Two arrows shot towards them, Eli swiftly catching the one directed towards his temple, while the other found its mark in the Leader's head. The arrows left a chilling echo in the quiet plains.

Eli turned his head and looked in the direction of fire. Eli had already detected one person lurking within his range, intending to unveil the mastermind behind the assault.

However,

Now, he sensed four figures approaching instead of one.

'Clap, Clap'

"Tsk, Tsk, Spectacular, Asher Eli, Spectacular!!" Eli heard a familiar tone but he was not sure who it was.

Unperturbed, Eli continued his nonchalant demeanour, pulling the heart from the Leader's lifeless body, crimson-stained fingers plucking the Soul Crystal from the still-warm organ.

"Still arrogant, I see..." The mysterious voice remarked, and then ordered, "Hey, bring them" summoning another person.

"Mei!" An old voice cried out in pain, echoing through the open expanse.

Eli's ears twitched,

'Thud'

Eli tossed the lifeless body aside and turned toward the source.

"AAARRHHHHHH!!" The anguished cry reverberated everywhere.

"'They are just strangers to me'...You say?...Look at the old bitch" the mysterious man commented, drawing Eli's attention.

Blind and unable to witness the events, Eli focused on sensing any movements. However, all he felt was a single person writhing on the ground, while three others stood separate.

"H-Hey, Bastards, Leave her now!!!"

Eli recognized the distressed voice, "Wei?"

"A-Asher? YOU BASTARD!! This all happened because of you!!"

Eli heard Wei's pained accusations.

"You heard that, right? Mr. Big Shot...Are you scared to see what's happening in front of you?" The mysterious man said, taunting Eli, "Why don't you open your eyes to see how that bitch is suffering?"

Eli took a step forward, ready to intervene when,

"No, no, no, the moment you step forward, this old man also suffers the same fate" The mysterious man warned Eli.

Hesitating for a second, Eli's indecision was sensed by the other party, and they exploited it.

"Bring that old man also" The Mysterious man ordered another person.

'Looks like the mastermind and his subordinate are the only ones here' Eli thought as he attempted to create an illusion.

"Hey, old man, I really don't want to kill your wife, but that man, who was going to be responsible for your wife's death...." The Mysterious man pointed to Eli.

As Wei looked at Eli with tears and snot.

"Even now, I can return your wife....However, all I needed was for him to hand over the person he was holding, who was supposed to be mine" The mysterious man stated seriously.

"Huh?" Wei froze for a second before asking with a trembling and hopeful gaze, "M-My Mei can return to normal?"

"Hehe...Yes, as long as he signs this contract" He chuckled, throwing the contract to Eli.

'Thud'

It landed near Eli's feet.

"A-Asher, P-Please!! M-My wife, S-She is innocent, Please!! I beg you!! You can have my life 'sob, sob' I-It's all because of you s-she is suffering, so Please!!" Wei pleaded.

Eli took the scroll and was just about to open it when, '...hmmm....I can't see' It took a moment for Eli to grasp, due to relying on his heightened senses for so long, his mind had become accustomed to sensing rather than seeing.

"I already signed it. What's taking you so long?" The mysterious man urged, a cruel edge to his voice evident as he delivered another heartless kick to Wei "Beg, old man!"

"Arhh-Y-Yes, Asher please, she is the only one I have, so please. I-I beg you, I will do anything for you...Please sign it" As the trails of tears dropped on the ground, Wei knew he was selfish to ask, but for him, his family was more important than others.

If he were in his wife's position, he wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice himself for Eli; however, his wife....his only world was suffering because of Eli.

"AAAHHHRRRRR!!"

Hearing his wife's agonized cry, Wei wished he could turn back time and sever any association with Asher Eli.

Eli contemplated using his domain, but the man's subordinate stood too close to Wei. The moment Eli utilized his technique.....it wouldn't end well.

Even the illusion was not an option, as the other party had already dispelled his illusions before they could take effect.

"..." Eli stayed silent. When Eli heard Wei's painful cries and hopefulness for his wife.....it felt like....like....like,

"P-Please, don't hurt her. S-She is innocent, I-I am begging you, S-So....Please...Please I-I will be s-servant...'sob'...Rest of my life...Please....do-don't kill....her...Pleas--"

"Hey, what are you dozing off? She's reaching her limit and doesn't expect me to help her" The mysterious man's voice snapped Eli back to the harsh reality as he kicked Wei again.

"Hey, if he is late anymore, don't think I can help her!!"

"H-Huh? A-Asher Eli, Please!!.....Please!!...." Wails of an old man echoed through the plain area.

Snapping out of his reverie, Eli looked in Wei's direction.

"...You are a good husband, Mr. Wei...You earned my respect" Eli said sincerely, acknowledging the depth of Wei's love and dedication.

He then proceeded to sign the scroll.

Seeing this, the mysterious man's eyes widened in excitement, while Wei joined his hands and he said heartily, "T-Thank You"
