Rein lay leisurely on the tattered sofa, staring blankly at the broken ceiling above. He absentmindedly tossed a crumpled piece of paper into the air, watching it draw a perfect arc in the weightless moment before landing back in his palm. This action seemed to be his only form of entertainment to pass the time.
In the room, several pale-faced subordinates were busy, carefully handling a body in the corner. This unfortunate victim had just been tortured to death by Rein in a fit of rage, the ghastly wounds and bloodstains on the body highlighting Rein's cruel nature.
Suddenly, Rein's voice echoed in the room, breaking the silence and tense atmosphere: "Let his blood dry up and save it... there's a lot of radiation in there..." His tone was casual, as if discussing something mundane, completely ignoring the dignity of life.
The people around shuddered at his words, but dared not hesitate, immediately starting to handle the body according to Rein's command. Rein watched their actions, a hint of cold satisfaction playing at the corner of his mouth, seemingly pleased with his ability to dominate life and death in this desolate world.
This scene vividly reflects the madness and cruelty under Rein's absolute power, as well as how The Curse of the Wild has become bloody and irrational in his hands. In this world destroyed by nuclear disaster, Rein is undoubtedly one of the most terrifying presences in Rado City.
Tanshao's voice resonated in the dimly lit room, with a subtle tension: "Rein... Willy was killed, by Vivian." His words lingered in the heavy air, as if probing what kind of reaction this news would stir in Rein.
However, Rein seemed unmoved by the news, casually tossing the paper ball in his hand, as if life and death were nothing new to him. He nonchalantly replied, "Hmm... What's the matter?" His tone showed no emotional fluctuation, as if what he had just heard was insignificant.
Tanshao's voice took on a hint of coldness, as if in this desolate world, every word needed to be expressed with great effort: "Is Vivian crossing the line? She... she killed someone from the same group. Who knows, she might come after you sooner or later." Tanshao's words carried a clear warning, as if reminding Rein that Vivian's actions might foreshadow a greater threat.
Rein listened and after a brief silence, simply said, "So what? In this world, it's survival of the fittest." His voice revealed a kind of indifference and cruelty, as if in his worldview, the weight of life was as light as a paper ball, easily discarded.
Tanshao sounded subtly surprised, seemingly taken aback by Rein's response. He continued to inquire, "Aren't you worried at all? As you said, this is a dog-eat-dog world, shouldn't we strive to maintain the existing power?" In this post-apocalyptic desolation, power and survival are closely linked, and Tanshao couldn't understand Rein's indifference to the potential loss of power.
Rein seemed indifferent to Tanshao's surprise and concern. He casually tossed the paper ball upward again, but this time, as the ball was about to fall, he subtly moved his finger and a red electric current burst from his fingertip, precisely capturing the falling paper ball. The electric current tightly enveloped the paper ball, forming a shimmering red sphere suspended in the air, preventing it from falling.
This action not only demonstrated Rein's control over his superpower, but also silently conveyed his confidence in control and power. He calmly responded to Tanshao, "Worried? Power has never left me. In this world, no one is irreplaceable. Whether it's Vivian or Willy, they are all just pawns." Rein's words carried absolute confidence and dominance, as if in this post-apocalyptic wilderness, he was the only unchanging ruler.
Tanshao had just prepared to speak, wanting to continue expressing his concerns about Vivian's behavior, but Rein rudely interrupted him. Rein's voice carried an unmistakable authority as he slowly said, "Furthermore, I want to make something clear to you. What I possess is not just the power in this land, but more importantly, I control the technology to produce nuclear crystals. In this post-apocalyptic world, nuclear crystals are not only a symbol of power, but also a guarantee of survival. Every individual, every group, is filled with desire to possess this power."
His voice was low and resolute, and he casually tossed the paper ball into the air once again, letting it circle before landing accurately back in his palm. "In this world full of crises and fear, I am the only one who can provide this kind of power. Who can truly shake my position? Especially when this power is almost within everyone's reach, and everyone wants to have it."
In these words, not only does it reveal Rein's confidence in his own power and status, but it also demonstrates his profound understanding of the new order of the end times. He knows that in this world, those who control the crucial resource of nuclear crystals are equivalent to holding everything. For Rein, Vivian's rebellion and the deaths of his colleagues are just minor incidents in the game of power. What truly secures his position is the absolute power he holds in his hands.
Rein slowly rises from the sofa, his movements exuding the calm and composure unique to a king. With a gentle flip of his palm, the paper ball is once again surrounded by electric currents, and with a light flick of his finger, a bright red light shines, and the paper ball is swiftly consumed by an invisible force, burning to ashes. Throughout the entire process, Rein's expression remains unchanged, with only his deep eyes shimmering slightly.
As the paper ball was burned by the electric current, a smell of charred carbon permeated the air, as if symbolizing the demise and rebirth of a certain power. Rein lowered his voice, as if every word contained unquestionable authority and determination, as he said to Tanshao, "In the end... how to be the leader, I don't need you to teach me... Tanshao."
This statement carries Rein's absolute confidence in his own authority, while also implying a warning to Tanshao. In the chaos of this post-apocalyptic world, Rein is keenly aware of his position and goal, and no one can influence his decisions, even those closest to him. In this dog-eat-dog world, only the strongest can set the rules, and Rein is exactly that kind of presence.
