99 99 - Disposable
But contrary to my expectations, as if the boy had eyes on the back of his head, he takes a step to the left, dodging my hand as if it were sothing completely natural, and not an attack from a Blessed Rank D.
Seeing him swerve in such a way has made a little doubtful, but I don't believe that a boy who has been bullied for so long can pose any real level of threat to .
So right after that, taking advantage of the fact that he still had his back to , I used more energy in my strength-boosting Blessing and with an open hand I tried again to hold his shoulder. But just like before, he just took a step to the other side and dodged my attack as if he were precisely seeing the trajectory.
This ti I couldn't ignore his avoidance as if it was nothing big. This kid isn't definitely no big deal; in fact this kid is more powerful than I thought.
My danger instinct was starting to send signals, but if he was facing I might even worry, but he was still on his back, so the advantage is still mine.
So that he wouldn't deflect, this ti I decided to give a full kick to my Blessing. I already gave up on controlling this boy the mont he dodged my second attack with his back to effortlessly.
Strangely, even if a kick was much more difficult to deflect and I was sure I was going to hit the attack, my instincts scread in my ears to retract that kick, otherwise sothing very bad would happen to .
I always trusted my instincts, and even without understanding what danger this boy with his back still open to posed, I retracted my kick trying to deflect so as not to hit the boy.
As soon as my leg passed close to him, because I forced myself to deviate from the trajectory, again, as if he had eyes on his back, in a quick movent he pulled a strange dagger from one of the tactical pockets he was using and pointed that dagger exactly to the point that I was aiming with my kick. Seeing that, I was stunned.
It wasn't making sense to how this boy was able to dodge my attacks even though his back was turned, especially now that he was even counter-attacking with the dagger he drew. He's doing all of this without looking at once, strangely knowing exactly where I would attack.
I had not brought a gun with , because I believed it would be an easy job as a higher-ranking Blessed Rank D, to intimidate a miserable Blessed Rank E, but I realized that I was completely wrong after seeing how this boy fought.
But apparently he wouldn't let back so easily, since strangely he also realized that I was backing off and started to walk backwards while turning to and looking at with those cold eyes, eyes that I definitely knew.
I ca to teach him how to look like soone who didn't mind taking soone else's life, but apparently this boy already knew what that was like, since he saw that look in the mirror every day.
The dagger in his hand was cutting in directions from which I had never been attacked before; it was as if he could read my body and see exactly where I was most vulnerable. If my strength and agility were not superior to his, maybe I would have already been sliced ??to pieces now and I wouldn't even have the right to complain.
"Wait, wait! Your uncle won't be happy if I die here and might send soone more powerful," I said with a slight note of fear in my voice.
What I said was true. If he killed here, I'm sure my boss would be very angry and spend a fortune to hire a Blessed Rank C.
Hiring Blessed Rank D is expensive, but it is not impossible. But there are few Blessed Rank C in the city. To find one who is willing to do a dirty job like this, my boss would have to look in bigger cities, but this is sothing I don't doubt he would do when angry.
And of course, the main reason I say this is that I don't want to die, given that this kid had already killed a blessed rank and killing here now in cold blood wouldn't make any difference to him. Not to ntion that I could see through those eyes of his that he kind of wanted to kill . I don't know why, since he wouldn't gain anything from my death, but for so reason I saw that he anticipated that one of those stabs would hit so that I would die, and it fucking scared .
"And who says I care who my uncle is going to send to their death next?" The boy said to in a cold voice as I slowly felt my movents being restricted by a mysterious force.
Shit! This boy has a Space Blessing? Goddammit, why did they tell he had a Fire Blessing? What is preventing my movents can only be a Space Blessing! If this is true, I'm fucked, and so is my boss, since Blessed with Space Blessings, are extrely valued by big shots for being able to exercise a greater power than the Blessing they had.
I need to think of sothing to convince this boy not to kill .
"Wait, wait! I can help you!" I scread desperately, feeling that because of those restrictions it was getting more and more difficult to dodge those stabs of his. I felt like I was moving under water, being restricted by walls of water that ca from all sides.
Hearing what I said, the boy didn't even blink and continued to attack while he spoke without emotion. "Really? And what does soone disposable like you have to offer ?"
Disposable? Since when am I disposable?! I am a Blessed Rank D, one of the few Blessed Rank D in the city Eyrin! If soone told that Blessed Rank D are disposable, I would laugh in the person's face, but whoever was saying that was acting proud in front of and I didn't even have the power to fight back.
It's true… If he is so powerful, it shouldn't be difficult for him to find another Blessed Rank D, since he must be used to dealing with Blessed Ones of even higher rank... Damn ... what is sort of shit did I step in today? Motherfucking boss!
"I know things about your uncle that can help you!" I scread desperately after feeling the tip of the blade cutting a thin line across my cheek, causing so blood to splash on the sidewalk and let understand that he was truly trying to kill . That stab only made such a shallow cut because at the last mont I managed to dodge it. If it weren't for that, he would definitely have stuck the dagger in my head without any consideration. What monster is it that doesn't care about human lives like that? It's like he just sees as a bunch of points he would earn in a ga, and that feeling really sucks.
But luckily, when he heard what I said, I finally saw his face change from a bored and disinterested look, which just saw as a future corpse, to one that found to be sothing interesting, sothing of value! That was exactly what I wanted. I knew how much he and my boss hated each other. If I could say anything to him, when I told my boss about his ability, he would definitely bring soone to kill this boy soon.
But unfortunately, the expression he made next made a little scared, since for a second he looked a bit sothing like... the Devil.
