Silva didn't even allow him to talk more.
"You said you would never come to this town again, why are you here?" Silva asked.
"Oh, that was before I found out how special you are. Now, I want you. So what will it be? Come with me and I'll spare the town, or stay and fight me, and the town gets destroyed," the cloaked man said.
"Haha, hahaha, hahahahah." Silva started cackling like a madman. The cloaked man was confused as to what was happening.
"DO YOU THINK YOU ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO GIVE ME OPTIONS?" Silva roared in rage, his mana and aura exploding from his body like a typhoon.
The windows and doors of the houses within a hundred-meter radius took damage.
When the cloaked man saw this, he understood that he had made a very large mistake; he had grossly underestimated how strong Silva was.
But this cloaked man was a scientist, a mad one, seeking the creation of new life and the best life. That was why he worked on abominations, trying to perfect them.
So right now, more than anything, he wanted to test, to find out how strong this boy was.
"Hahaha, are you angry? There is nothing you can d---"
Boom.
Before he could finish that statement, Silva's fist connected to his face and sent him rocketing into a wall, breaking through it completely.

Silva charged at the hole, but his vibration senses picked up something shooting out of the hole. He sidestepped and dodged.
A black tentacle-like limb shot past as soon as he dodged. He immediately grabbed hold of the arm, pulled it with full force, and drew the cloaked man out.
The man flew into the air and rolled on the ground, his hoodie falling off his head, revealing his face.
Do you know how many people have lost their parents to worse tragedies? If they thought like you, would they be any good person?
If you want to kill and experiment, for fuck's sake do it for yourself and by yourself. Don't use your poor mother as an excuse.
Think I'd sob with you and say you did your best? You don't get a participation award, bro," Silva scolded the man.
The man couldn't say anything after that. He just looked at Silva, in his mind thinking, what sort of human was this?
Silva squatted beside the man and continued speaking.
"I want to take down the Black Blades. You guys have pissed me off. I could simply brute-force my way and destroy all of you, but that would cause too much of a ruckus.
So I need to get into the system first. After that, I'll snatch all of you up quietly and kill you all. Now, you alone can save yourself because I'll be using you, whether you like it or not," Silva said.
He placed his hand on the man's head and forced a dark contract on him, like he did with those A-ranked adventurers.

It took a while for the town to be cleared up. After Silva captured the man, more portals stopped spawning, and the adventurers, with the aid of the clones, took care of things.
Sadly, there were still deaths, four in total: three men and a female adventurer. Their bodies were properly cleaned and kept. They would receive a funeral from the whole town that they fought to protect.
Because of all that had happened, Silva and Roxy could not go on that date. But Silva took her to the top of the viscount's roof, and they sat there watching the stars.
After some time, Roxy slid her fingers and intertwined them with Silva's.
"Silva, I know that you'll be going places, doing great things and lots more. And I can't keep up with all that; you are just too fast.
But I want you to promise me that no matter how far you go, that I'll have a place with you," she said in a calm voice. Silva could tell that she was serious.
"Roxy, there may come a time when the world will be against me, and those that stand with me will be at risk. If you still decide to stay with me even after hearing this, then for sure you'll always remain special to me."
