One week went by swiftly. During this period, the team uncovered nothing significant. They mostly performed mundane tasks and acted as glorified servants for their superiors. During this phase, the one who benefited the most was undoubtedly Kylie. Michael visited every day and made sure to work her to the bone. Each day she was able to draw out a little bit more of Red’s power, and while she could not use the flames of purgatory which could burn any demon to crisp, her energy slowly transformed leaned towards the fire element. This meant that he attacks were more robust and more destructive now. If she wanted to use the flames of destruction, she would do so at her own risk for that power was not something she could control without cost; but she wouldn’t need to do that unless she was in grave danger. And so the first week went by uneventfully.The second week was very different from the first. All of a sudden, the professors who didn’t want Kylie and her group anywhere near their pro

*This project. What unholy mess is this!*Red screamed, his voice reverberating in Kylie’s head like a loud gong. Normally, Kylie would have berated the Red Stun of Destruction for attempting to destroy her mind with his reckless action, but she could not muster the current strength to do so. For She felt the same way after seeing what Professor Huckleberry had shown her? How was she supposed to react when faced with the sinister plot that was Project X?“How did you come up with something like this Professor?” Kylie asked, her voice trembling strongly.She had been trained to maintain her composure at all times by Muriel, an archangel who was calmer than the bolts he controlled. Over the past few days she had slowly mastered keeping her expression neutral regardless of the circumstances; however, faced before the Professor’s request, no amount of training could keep her mind calm and her heart still.“Hehe. This is merely theoretical. I wondered what will possibly be capable of reduc

“That girl…she isn’t normal.”“Indeed. How can a normal girl be able to run at such speed for over thirty minutes?” “Ogre’s 7th Sword was wrong. That girl is not normal.”“She’s radiating the energy of a 2 Star, but her prowess is similar to a 4 Star. At least, her agility is not that of a 2 Star.”As the assassins moved through the woods, they shared their thoughts on their targets. When the 7th Sword had asked them to go after the girl, they had been bemused by the mission. Why were four 4 Stars sent after a helpless little girl? Well, they had their answer now. Professor Huckleberry had sent them because he wanted to be as thorough as possible. They were his direct subordinates, and it was always better to send your best rather than your worst. To think that he was actually right in sending them after Kylie.“She’s slowing down,” one of the assassins stated, and then he pulled up his mask to conceal his face.“Indeed,” another nodded his head and repeated the movement of his colle

“How do you have that power?” Kylie asked, her eyes narrowed into slits.How could humans use the power of Red? This was power even she as Red’s contracted struggled to control. How was it that humans were using it.*They aren’t controlling it. It is controlling them. They will not answer your question because they cannot answer. They have lost their minds*Kylie knew that Red was right. After all, they were both looking at the same thing. C and D didn’t look anything like humans anymore. They looked like red humanoid creatures that had not an ounce of wisdom in them.*If you touch them, I would be able to read their memories to see how they got my power* Red told Kylie.“You could do that? Why didn’t you tell me?” Kylie asked, surprised; for she was hearing this information for the first time.*Have you forgotten? By bonding, we are able to share our abilities. I can read their minds because it is your power; but because it is your power, the conditions to do so are much more stringe

“I see. So, he was working on something like that. It’s no surprise, given the ambitions of that group.” Muriel cut a relaxed figure, a being unbothered by even the most disturbing of news.Why would he care, and what good would caring do for him when he was a creature that was beyond the confines of the mortal world? His brother, Michael, was similar. He also cared not for what Kylie had just told them.“Are you not incensed?” Kylie asked, surprised that they were not at all bothered by her words.She had just told them about Proj-No, Delerium.She had just informed them that she had handed their enemy a recipe that could potentially cause them a fatal loss of their power. She had been expecting a scolding or displeasure from them, and a possible letter to Galbraith informing him of how displeased they were. She had even considered the possibility that this would result in her mission failing. It was ironic really. The thing she had done to ensure the success of her mission was also
