Phantom stood in a daze for a few seconds and murmured in a sullen voice,
'Arghh! Crap… '
The tension brim in the surrounding. Agenor immediately noticed the animosity and blurted out.
"We are not bandits. My party members are injured right now, and we are leaving the forest. We have absolutely no intention of creating any problem for yo--"
Before Agenor could even complete his sentence, Maira cut him off in the middle and limped forward. She gazed towards the feminine voice that came from a figure wearing blood-red Armor.
"Never really thought the prodigies of clan Phoenix Gods would grace us with their presence!" She limped a step forward and spoke as clearly as possible, "Lieutenant Grisha Fowler, would you mi
"If you respect me so much, then don't threaten me and let us leave without creating further problems." Maira wasn't ready to be reasoned with anymore, she wanted to leave as fast as she could. The potential outcome of these tongue-in-cheek comments was certainly horrifying. There is a reason the brain is considered so complex machine. Sometimes it reads the danger faster than the speed of light, but sometimes times its irrationality and stupidity goes beyond logic. It seemed as if after getting out of the recent life-threatening situation, the part of Maira's brain which is responsible for sensing danger had reached a saturation point. She couldn't be bothered by anything anymore. It was certainly hard to predict what was going on inside her mind, but none of them
"To be honest, I'm so injured that I can't even stand straight. Right now, the most my body could handle is one punch. But If you resort to needless violence, I'll have no choice but to stack up my second berserk skill, which I absolutely don't want to do right now.""You think you can take us on with your second berserk skill?" Grisha smirked as she gazed at him in the eyes, "You're pretty arrogant for the leader of a measly party!"~pfffttFalco couldn't help but chuckle. He knew she was trying to pinpoint the leader of the party, but instead of asking upfront, she assumed Falco was the leader.Nevertheless, he had neither time nor energy to clear it up."Think whatever you want, but do not underestimate your op
"Varun, you're up!" Grisha uttered mercilessly, "You better blow his brains out!" The moment she completed her sentence, Creed pupils dilated. Several images and memories sprouted in front of his eyes. He had already sensed the familiar intricate chakra control from one of the members but since he was covered in armor, Creed was doubtful of his identity. Creed also noticed that he was the weakest member since he was the only Elite in the group of 9 Seekers. However, that didn't change the fact that his chakra control was undoubtedly leaps and bounds ahead of others. Despite being covered in thick Armor, Creed's perception forced him to see several brisk fibers of chakra revolving around his skin almost like fine threads of smoke. The last time he saw Varun Baks
A suffocating tightness gripped his chest. All his plans, conjectures, and efforts were now starting to crumble into dust. The fact that despite putting every inch of his soul, yet being unable to avoid the death of a teammate, completely obliterated his sanity.Creed wasn't emotionally attached to any of them, but he still knew the value of life. Falco sacrificed his life in an attempt to protect something that wasn't even real. Creed couldn't help but drown in immense guilt.If he hadn't brought his clone into the picture, this would never have happened. This is the reason why Creed didn't enjoy working in a team. A single variable could mess up everything. His mind began to drown deep inside the abysmal despair.When Creed saw him crashing to the ground, his pupils turned pitch-black. He almost felt someone
Creed had finally returned to his own quarters in the public shelter. The Malaka hunt had exhausted him both mentally and physically.This hunt was by far the tedious out of all the previous ones. Not only did he burden himself with rigorous physical labor inside the forest, but he also had to bring his Phantom's persona in order to deal with the Malaka.Interestingly, by the time Phantom made an appearance, Creed's actual body had already switched positions with his radix clone. Therefore, inside the black armor was Creed himself, whereas the one who stood next to Rain was actually the clone.He had already segregated Singularity and flame trident to Phantom's identity, whereas his clone revealed the possession of the Mayhem saber to the team. Despite standing at death's door, Creed was trying his utter best
Creed had absolutely no idea what kind of creature this was. The abysmal icy flame wrapped around the beast gave him a daunting and uncanny appearance. In fact, the beast's appearance was so uncanny it made him realize how little he knew about glitch and the beings inside. As he focused more inside the core of the flame, he saw a beast standing on four legs with extremely sharp talons. His main body was that of a four-legged mammal, but there were also glimmering reptilian scales on its stomach area reaching all the way to his neck and end of the furry tail. His head looked like a hybrid of deer and a black dragon. The creature also had huge horns on top of his head, almost like a majestic crown bestowed by some spiritual deity from seventh heaven. The sk
Creed made a new discovery after meeting a little-gobbler. The stupid bird has learned to hide his presence. That is the reason why Creed was caught off guard after entering the cave. He had only been gone for 5 days, so he never expected the beast to learn stealth so quickly.What was even more surprising about this was the efficiency behind the implementation. Creed was no stranger to thinning of his presence and knew how important this skill was for both hunters and beasts.Moreover, the scary aspects of this skill were the beasts inside Glitch are the true masters of stealth. In terms of stealth efficiency, humans come nowhere close to beasts.Unlike humans, beasts have to live in a harsh environment which forces them to hone stealth with an efficiency several times higher than humans.
Creed was just a step away from exiting the cave until he was trifled with a familiar sound coming from his wrist.~BEEP ~BEEPThe beeping sound of his watch gulped his focus. The instant he read the notification; his eyes stretched wide in perplexity."What the--" He blurted out involuntarily after reading the notification. "This...this has to be some kind of mistake!"With his gut-churning milk and forehead drenched in purple sweat, Creed ran out of the cave in a frenzy. His leg muscles were filled with some kind of animalistic vigor. A web of confused neurons firing shots in his brain. He stormed through the entire forest as fast as his legs allowed him.~Huff ~HuffHis face wa
