Talon and Small's cell was automatically opened. They were quite surprised, but that was the least of their worries. What was on their minds was how the next phase would be. They immediately came out of their cells as the guards took them through the hallway."Don't worry, we will make it through," Talon tried to encourage Small. Small was a bit nervous, thinking that he didn't have better chances of survival because Talon seemed to be ahead in everything."Talon, if you make it out of here, I want you to never allow any other children in the Safe Zone to experience what we experienced," Small stared at Talon with somber eyes."Small, why are you talking like this? We will make it together. Don't say such things again," Talon rebuked Small as he hugged him tightly."We'll die together and we'll leave here together," Talon whispered as he closed his eyes tight. During the two years they had been together, they had formed a strong bond. It seemed that nothing could ever separate them ag

A young woman with a red ponytail was dressed in a white leather coat and wore white transparent glasses. She was under thirty years old and was seen pushing a bed labeled with the name "Talon"through a 12-meter-wide hallway enclosed by a metallic frame. Her purpose was to transport Talon to a location where experiment bodies were disposed of through burning. Talon had been recently declared dead, and their practice of burning bodies aimed to prevent the identification of their sinister actions.Talon was covered in a blue bedsheet when suddenly he started shaking. The woman was shocked to see a dead person shaking."What the heck!" she exclaimed, removing her hands from the bed out of fear of the unknown. She had heard of undead creatures, so she thought maybe Talon had become one. Although the woman was not below A-Rank Class, she was only a Heavenly Artificer. Heavenly Artificers were known to be geniuses with little knowledge about combat. Their main focus was creating technolo

 In the brightly lit hallway, Talon stood after he had finished off the first man without any remorse. He looked at the second man with anger in his eyes. He wanted to get out of here and fulfill Small's dream. He would have to get strong and annihilate all those involved in running this facility, but first, he must deal with the nine remaining here. Now that he had four minutes of immense power, he had to use it wisely. "Now let's make this quick," Talon zoomed off with incredible speed, disappearing and reappearing suddenly. He never knew he could do that. "Isn't this ability meant for those who have awakened?" Talon was shocked as he performed the skill. [Moon Shadow successfully used!][Bonus Arcane points +1!][Countdown Momentum Level Upgrade 00:00:03:58:23!] Talon decided to make full use of his new skill. He vanished into thin air, rotating in the air, and landed up

In a dense forest, trees had been torn apart by the demonic beast. Due to its enormous size, the beast wreaked havoc on the environment. The falling creature wasn't too far from Talon and the girl. A man dressed in pitch-black clothing stood atop the severed head of the beast."What the hell is an S-Class Rank demonic beast doing around here?" The man exclaimed, surprised. This was because any demonic beast above the level of A-Class Rank was not supposed to be seen near the City of High Borns. Moreover, this place wasn't even close to the city's borders. The borders of the city were equipped with devices to detect high-level beasts, and the ones that crossed the borders were eliminated by the Order of the Divine Sentinels, ensuring the city's peace.Talon was overwhelmed by the man's ability to defeat a beast that was approximately 30 feet tall. "Someday, I hope to reach this level," Talon thought to himself. While observing the man, Talon noticed him opening the beast's chest and e

Talon was shocked as he closed his mouth, shocked at what he had previously said. He didn't know how he would explain it to David."Young man, is anything going on?" David asked."Nope! Nothing, I'm fine," Talon replied."Okay! I think I don't need to pry further into your private affairs. Okay, if I may ask, what were you doing in that forest? The forest was restricted, and F-Class Rankers are not meant to be seen in there. Moreover, you and the little fellow you saved haven't even awakened a path," he said as he stared at Talon with a curious look."Sir, you wouldn't understand! It's a long story. I'm just an orphan boy who has encountered extreme challenges," Talon said as he bowed his head and sobbed, remembering all the events that took place from Small dying. All of a sudden, he burst into tears. He couldn't control himself any longer.David was shocked by Talon's words. He knew that growing up in a world without parents was something he had gone through, and he wouldn't want a
