Chapter 169: True Hatred
The people of the city realized in shock that they weren’t dreaming all this! There really was a dragon flying right over their heads!
"I have to get this on video!"
"It’s a dragon! A dragon in Riverdale!?"
"Dude, is it so new superhuman’s ability!?"
"That’s a fucking dragon! I don’t think any superhuman can do sothing like that!"
"How strong do you think it’ll be? It had to be at least an Eldritch!"
"It’s definitely a Leviathan!"
"Where’s it going!? Follow it!"
The crowd was starting to get more rowdy as ti passed and many of the civilians got into their cars and began to follow after the dragon as it raced for the less developed side of the city! On the dragon’s back, Jason had a look of pure fury on his face as he urged Ragnar to go faster! Jason’s vision was torn between what was in front of him and the images he was getting from the wolves back in his house. The wolves had killed one of the five assassins that appeared and they were now taking on the others, but Gina and Riyala were also fighting against one of the assassins who looked very dangerous!
Jason suddenly had to refocus on the space in front of him as he gave Ragnar directions to take for the quickest route back to the house! Ragnar roared as he flapped his wings faster to increase his speed and Jason narrowed his eyes as he started to recognize the area that they were in! It was a few kiloters away from his house and they would reach it in a few seconds! In the distance, a large plu of smoke was rising from where Jason’s apartnt was, and Jason could see firefighters evacuating a lot of people from the area around the building!
Jason slowly got up from Ragnar’s back and crouched with his hand on Ragnar’s neck as they got closer and once Jason was certain that they were in the right position, he ordered Ragnar to descend! Ragnar turned downwards and shot towards the ground quickly, but Jason didn’t wait for Ragnar to reach the ground. Instead, Jason let go of Ragnar’s neck imdiately and inclined his body downwards before kicking off and shooting down even faster!
Jason shot toward his apartnt like a rocket and slamd into the ground with enough force to leave a massive crater behind before he charged forward and broke through the apartnt wall!
"Gina!"
Jason shouted loudly while looking around and he felt his entire body freeze when he saw what was happening. Three n in black clothes were standing around the house and facing off against Jason’s wolves. The man the wolved had killed was lying in a pool of blood at one side. And in the middle of the room, Riyala was kneeling over Gina’s motionless body with tears in her eyes. Riyala’s face was squeezed in anguish and the mont she saw Jason, she let out a strangled cry!
"J-Jason! I don’t know what happened! The man cut her and she just fell! I can’t heal her!"
The wound that Gina had received across her stomach had already been closed by Riyala’s healing magic, but Riyala could tell that Gina was not yet healed. There was sothing else inside Gina that was killing her and no matter how much Riyala tried to use her magic to heal her, it was impossible for her to fix it!
Riyala’s healing flas were a unique healing ability that worked only on internal and external wounds. Nonphysical things like diseases or poisons were impossible for her to reach. So at that mont, there was really nothing that she could do for Gina. Riyala cried out again when she sent her blue flas over Gina’s body and tried to heal her, but Gina did not stir and her skin only grew paler as her heartbeat began to weaken.
The noise around the room was like static in Jason’s ears. There was no sound getting through to him and he could almost feel the world falling to pieces around him.
At the side, one of the Phantoms cursed as he saw Jason appear and he dashed away from the wolf that was confronting him and towards Jason! He was close enough to Jason that he was sure he would be able to at least scratch him with his poison blade before Jason could react! The man lashed out with his blade, and Jason’s adamantine-coated arm reached out and grabbed the man before he could stab him! Jason twisted his arm and the man let out a cry as his arm broke in half! Jason then grabbed the man’s hair with his other hand and pulled!
"W-Wait—"
SQUELCH!
The man’s head tore straight off from his body and blood sprayed across the floor!

30 Kill Points

Everyone in the room held their breath in shock from the sudden death and Jason wasted no ti as he called out.
"Resurrect."
The dead Phantom, as well as the phantom that had been killed by Jason’s subordinate imdiately rose from their bodies and stood in front of Jason expectantly!

Multiple notifications appeared in Jason’s system tabs, but Jason ignored them as he ntally ordered the n to tell him what happened to Gina and how he could fix it!
In a split second, Jason got a full breakdown of what had happened. He understood who the n were, the sort of weapons they used for battle, as well as the power that they held. Jason felt a deep, vengeful anger rising from his heart the longer he heard the n talking. Everything that they said fueled the hatred that he had for every single one of the phantoms and when Jason rose his head to glare at the leader, Yulyv, the man flinched back at the sheer fury present in those eyes!
Yulyv was dedicated to finishing his mission and his desire to impress Alpha would have made him remain here no matter what happened, but after seeing Jason kill one of the phantoms so easily and then resurrect that phantom’s dead body without any effort, Yulyv knew that this was one battle that he was not going to win! Yulyv imdiately gave out a coded order to the other phantoms for them to retreat and all three of them fell into the shadows to run away!
’Kill them.’
Jason gave out a single order and he felt a dip in his mana as both of the phantoms, as well as one of the Moonlight wolves, fell into the shadow and chased after the fleeing phantoms!
Once they were gone, Jason walked over to Gina’s body and Riyala moved back with a pained expression to give Jason so space. There were still tears falling down Riyala’s cheeks and Jason ignored her as he held Gina softly. Jason listened desperately for her heartbeat and he felt even more despair when he could barely hear it! It was so slow!
’Can you do anything for her?’
Jason imdiately sent a ssage to the system! The system was the largest archive of knowledge in the Primordial Expanse and Jason was sure that it would know what was wrong with Gina! There was no way it wouldn’t have a way to heal her!
The system imdiately sent a response.
