Zaine shrugged
"Guess they got bored and left"
Sable scrutinized Zaine thoroughly for a few seconds before her gaze was eventually drawn to the floor. There was a decently large crack in the ground, suggesting that a large amount of force had been used, but other than that,there was nothing to note.
For so reason though, she found it hard to peel her eyes away from that spot, sothing about it was.... hypnotizing.
"So we can go?"
"Huh?"
Zaine looked at her suspiciously. She had seed so laser focused just a few minutes ago and now she was barely listening.
"Did you take care of things?"
"Um....yeah. we can go"
Zaine shrugged.
"Great. Ladies first?"
"N...no ,go ahead"
Zaine looked at her suspiciously before turning around and walking through the door.
Sable shakily brought out a knife she was hiding behind her back. It was the sa knife she’d pulled out of Zaine’s back and it was still dripping with fresh wet blood.
Sable felt like sothing about the blood was calling to her. She just couldn’t look away.
Her eyes started to glow red and a thin line of drool escaped her lips.
With slow deliberate movents, she brought the knife close to her face, and with an audible sigh of pleasure,ran her tongue over the blade, cleaning off every trace of blood.
"You know, this would be a lot less disturbing if that wasn’t my blood"
Sable froze and looked towards the door where Zaine was looking at her with a an expression that looked mostly like curiosity.
Sable felt her blood run cold. How would she explain this situation to him.
"Weird kink, but I’ve seen worse so i won’t judge"
Sable smiled helplessly. Was it better she just let him believe this,or she explain herself. Even if she wanted to, she couldn’t since she herself didn’t know what was happening with her.
"What are you staring for? You said you wanted to help, right? Co on"
Sable dropped the knife and quickly chased after him.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"Help"
"That doesn’t explain anything"
"Now you know how i feel"
Sable groaned. Zen was never this petty.
"Be honest. What exactly did you do with those people"
"I threw them in a dumpster sowhere"
Sable sighed, relieved that he hadn’t done anything too extre.
Zaine shrugged. He hadn’t lied, he just hadn’t told her the full truth.
After walking for a few more minutes, Sable suddenly chuckled.
"What?" Zaine asked
"Pretty cringe, don’t you think?"
"Hmm?"
" ’im not people’. Feels like you were trying too hard "
Zaine shrugged.
"Regardless, it’s true. People like don’t get to be human"
Not like he even was human as of recent
"...."
"And we’re here"
Zaine suddenly stopped.
"This is a bar " Sable noted
"Cliche, I know. So people have no imagination "
Sable looked around suspiciously. This place was awfully quiet. Weren’t places like this ant to be rowdy? Not to ntion discreet.
Confidently, Zaine walks in, and Sable has no choice but to follow.
The door suddenly slams open and everyone inside suddenly turns to the door to see who it is causing noise.
Zaine scanned the room that was obviously full of thugs and gangsters with no fear, carefully checking the number
’3...5....9...12....15....’
"Um... I think we should leave" Sable say, looking at the multiple nacing eyes staring daggers at them silently.
Zaine ignored her and suddenly yelled
"Hey fuckers! I’m looking for soone called Rock. I’ve got business with him"
One of the gangsters got up and confidently strode to Zaine
"You looking for trouble,kid?"
"Psst, He’s a level four " Theia inford him after scanning him.
"Yes "
[Soul blade]
Zaine punched through the man’s abdon with the soul blade surrounding his arm, piercing a huge hole right through him.
Zaine watched as the man’s body slumped to the floor at his feet, feeling nothing but his already endless rage.
"I was hoping I’d get to do it this way"
Imdiately, everyone in the bar reacted, grabbing weapons and preparing for a fight.
Sable looked at Zaine like he was crazy. He’d just killed soone in broad daylight. It wasn’t that it disgusted her in anyway, in fact the dead body on the ground was strangely... appealing to her. The problem was that he’d done it with absolutely no consideration for what ca next.
She hurriedly brought out his two handed sword and handed it to him at his request before pulling out her katana.
Theia suddenly teleported in front of Zaine
"As your assistant, I’m obligated to tell you that using a greatsword in an enclosed space isn’t ideal due to the obstacles "
"Screw that! I don’t care about any obstacle in my way, I’ll just destroy them all!!!"
Zaine’s vision turned red as he began his first hunt since he was free.
He imdiately launched himself forward with a shadow dash and perford a large sweep with the sword, getting him so room and destroying multiple chairs and tables.
"Aren’t you worried about him?" Lilith asked while watching the screen.
Freya smiled helplessly and asked.
"Do you know why I have that nickna for him. Little berserker? You’re about to find out"
Zaine slashed downward with all his strength, the claymore in his hands ripping through the air before landing on an unfortunate gang mber.
A ball of earth slamd into his chest, probably controlled by an earth ability, but Zaine acted like the attack barely registered in his mind, swinging his sword and taking another life.
A glint shone from the corner of his eye and Zaine was struck with a large chain, knocking him off balance a little bit.
[Hp: -5]
Zaine grabbed the chain, ignoring the damage and tried to rip it from the hands of whoever was using it, but it seed the person had a strength ability of a decent level as Zen realized he couldn’t take it,at least not while he was using one hand to fight.
Refusing to let go of the chain, Zaine wielded the two handed greatsword with one hand, swinging wildly and not bothering to dodge.
[-5]
[-6]
[-7]
[-3]
Zaine ignored the pitiful numbers of damage, instead focusing on the battle.
Noticing one gang mber coming from the front straight at him, Zaine plunged his sword into the ground before using a punch powered with a soul blade to finish them.
Another chain suddenly appeared from his side, wrapping around his one free arm, holding him in place.
Zaine sneered at the gang mbers about to attack him and activated a skill
[Charge(maximum power)]
[Aaaaghhh!!!!!!}
Zaine’s strength imdiately doubled and he quickly put it to good use. He grabbed the two chains and with a rumbling shout pulled on them both.
The second one budged a bit but the first one barely moved, signifying its user’s strength.
After a few seconds, Zaine managed to overpower whoever was on the other end and grabbed the chain for himself.
Zaine suddenly felt the strength behind the other chain disappear. He looked to his right and saw Sable with her blade plunged into a large burly man’s back.
He pulled the second chain effortlessly and swung it as fast as he could, wrapping it around one gang mber’s throat and tightening it until the man choked.
He imdiately displayed his mastery over multiple weapons, quickly adapting to the chains and using them to battle the gang.
After a while, he dropped the chains, opting for a hamr he found on the ground, taking wide swings and ignoring defense completely.
Unknown to Zaine, sothing was changing as he fought. He was unconsciously accomplishing sothing, Zen had failed to when he tried.
A red aura started to leave his body as his rage soared higher and higher under the stimulation of battle.
He lifted the hamr high above his head and swung it down. Sothing resembling a spark flickered in front of his chest and moved towards his hand. A red fla suddenly burst over his hand and onto the hanr as he slamd it down, creating a miniature explosion and shattering the skull of the person he attacked .
"Sin heart fla!" Theia’s eyes widened as she announced what had just happened.
Zaine looked at the hamr in his hand that had been completely destroyed and imdiately dropped it, picking up his greatsword again and continuing his relentless assault, this ti without the fla.
A few minutes later the entire room was filled with corpses. Both Sable and Zaine were panting, but for very different reasons.
"Impressive"
Zaine looked at where the voice was coming from and rolled his eyes.
"I was wondering when you’d choose to stop hiding in your pussy hole "
He pulled up his sword and pointed it straight at the new person,an extrely burly seven foot tall man with long blonde hair and deep brown eyes.
"You’re rock, right? Where’s your boss? Answer and I’ll kill you considerably less painfully"
[Gift: Hardening Lv5]
Zaine was almost impressed by the level of his opponent. Even the previous level four he killed was only so easy because it was a surprise attack.
The ways levels worked was that every level higher was ten tis more powerful than the previous level, not in brute strength but all-round efficiency. The sa applied to cores.
Sable was a level four herself while Zen didn’t have a level. However with all the tricks he had up his sleeve, he wasn’t worried even if he was fighting alone. In fact, he WANTED to fight alone. He was pissed at the people who had hurt him, and it didn’t take much to piss him off.
"What are you, deaf? I asked where your boss was. I heard he found so secret weapon and wants to take over the city "
Rock finally reacted,shock appearing on his face. How did he know?
Sable looked at Zaine who had his sword pointed at Rock. So it turned out he was doing all this because he heard a gang in the city was planning sothing awful. Was he really doing all this to protect people?
Sable looked around at the multiple corpses that littered the ground. A strong resolve appeared in her eyes as she clutched the hilt of her sword.
If that was the case then all this bloodshed was fine.
Zaine didn’t know what she was thinking but if he did, he’d laugh out loud at her face. He wasn’t doing this for so noble cause. He was only doing this much because that guy at the bar had pissed him off, and also because he liked to fight. He was no hero, if anything, he was the opposite Why else would Zen have gotten jealous and locked him away.
