Chapter 23

Jiren was in the training grounds when Maverick arrived and was urged to fight. Normally he would have interfered and stopped it since he had some reputation amongst the talenteds, but he watched to see what Maverick would do and how strong he was compared to a B class talented.

Getting close to Maverick, the ruffian attempted to punch Maverick on the face with all of his speed as a B class talented. Maverick noted that he was fast for a b class, but it wasn’t enough. Maverick reclined his head backwards avoiding the punch.

The ruffian didn’t stop, he threw another punch with his other arm and then another and another, interchanging both arms as he continued to push forward again and again.

But Maverick kept avoiding the blows again and again with ease.

‘Untrained fellow, his punches have no direction, just wavering in the air and hoping to hit anything it touches, pathetic…and….’

Maverick noted as he studied the ruffian with trained eyes. Maverick has had years of exper

And the portal had closed.”“This is troubling. Continue your investigation and don’t share a word of this out. ““Yes sir.” She said and then left the office leaving the man alone again. He began thinking but then his eyes went back to Maverick. ‘Just what do you have to do with all these?’ He thought. **** Maverick and Talia were standing tog

Trying to access their strength , weakness and team coordination ,so that they can be better prepared for circumstances just like that. And all through the meeting, Jiren was looking at Talia suspiciously.Maverick returned to his room with a smile on his face since he had enjoyed the time with Talia. Despite being younger than he was in his past life when he was in a relationship with Talia, his feelings for her still remained. But he promised himself he won’t let his feelings control him again this time around.The moment Maverick was alone in his room and was settled, he began thinking again. Thinking about everything that had happened, the differences and changes t

    Chapter 26The following day, Maverick got dressed and left the room given to him in the facility. He was wearing basic combat clothes for government talenteds. It consisted of black military pants, black skin tight black turtleneck long sleeves, and then an armour like chest jacket. His ankles and knees were fastened with protectors just Incase of falls. Fingerless gloves and then a black boot. Wrapped around his waist were small pouches that held some items. There was a dagger sheath around his waist and another wrapped on his legs, as well as other weapons too. And then finally a small one armed backpack that contained food and other necessary items. He was wondering why he was dressed like this, since this was how people ready to enter portals for a mission dressed, it was the basic uniform unless you opt to get yours customised. He was certain he wasn’t going into a portal since he did not have a team nor had he been officially given a class. He didn’t object though since it wa

    Chapter 27Maverick Followed Hermione who seemed to be in command of the mission and James into a black vehicle and then drove off to where the portal was.On the way, Maverick kept checking out the weapons he was gifted and was trying to get used to them.In his past life, he had always used a sword and never a gun nor a Katana. Looking at the design of both weapons, he could tell that they were both very good weapons with very good quality. Deep down he couldn't wait to use both of them,since he had been fighting bare handed ever since. He was especially looking forward to using the Katana more. They arrived at the location of the portal, it was about 30 mins drive from the bureau facility, since it was just in the next town. They alighted from the vehicle and saw that the portal had already been quarantined so no-one entered it. They were other lower class talenteds guarding the place so nothing came out. It was only a matter of time until monsters came out of the portal, since w

James was reloading his guns since he had used some of them to equally kill some of the monsters present. Maverick just looked, he had not moved from his position and was quite impressed as to how they had easily dispatched the creatures. But Maverick knew their troubles were yet to come.'I've been to this world before through this portal, and these ugly bastards were not really the problem. The problem was the monsters that hunted the ugly bastards. This kind of portal was not supposed to have opened yet, it only opened up until several years after everything when they discovered that there was a thing called portal anomalies.'"Hey new guy, don't space out again or you'll get killed. Let's get moving, these creatures are the least of our problems, they are nothing but fodder, the real de

    Chapter 29Maverick, Hermione and James arrive at the location of the energy core and just like the survivor had said, the hellhounds were all over the place. Many were snacking on the remains of the creatures they had killed and the others were either taking a nap or just resting.The place was an open field at the bottom of a mountain, there was a cave entrance on the mountain, but the energy core was outside, just at the entrance of the cave. "I count 21 of them, I sense the presence of another one inside the cave, a total of 22." James said as he scouted the place. "That seems easy, let's finish this and go home" Hermione said, with no epitome of fear. To her see didn't see the monsters as anything worth stressing over."wait, shouldn't we observe them for a while first. I mean, so we can be able to understand something about them at least." Maverick said, trying to stall. He had seen the class and knew that they were not gonna be as easy as the last ones, since they had eaten a

    Chapter 30 Hermione breathed heavily as she drew her Katana from the ground, she had a few scratches and bruises but other than that she looked fine.She had managed to defeat all the hell hounds that had assaulted her. She looked around and saw the corpses of the hellhounds she had decapitated with her talent. There were all cut apart cleanly, nicely diced into cubes like a cutting machine had actually done the cutting.which was one of her talent's techniques and a sword skill, she had immediately eliminated all of them when she had an opportunity to do so.Her talents allowed her to cut almost everything with the right tool. Hence why she preferred using a Katana. She does not just cut, but she is able to project the slash to any distance she wants. That is, she can wave her sword here and something 10 metres away or more will be cut cleanly, like she was there cutting it. She is able to move the slashes she makes in the air, in a straight or curved path to any location of her ch

    Chapter 31Maverick had blocked the sonic explosion with a force shield from his talent, but the power was still enough to drive him back and crash him to the ground forcefully. Before he could regain himself, the hound had sent the laser his way and his eyes widened in surprise, but he managed to roll out of it in the nick of time. However the explosion from the laser got to him since he was right within its range. James started firing at the hound but his bullets didn't seem to faze it, they were bouncing off the black aura that was around its skin,it was acting like a protective armour for the hound. James clicked his teeth in irritation as he saw that his attacks were not working and Then he threw his guns away since they were now useless. The hound opened its mouth and shot several sonic blasts at him but he was moving very fast and avoided them all, but still suffered some scratches from the explosions that came with them."Earth Cleaver slash"Hermione yelled from a distance,

    Chapter 135Supremus pointed his metallic finger of his left arm at Maverick and immediately beam of energy shot out of it and was aimed at Maverick. The beam of energy was so strong and intense that it left a trail of destruction as it was heading for Maverick.Maverick remained calm, standing and watching with no visible expression on his face. He wasn't even bothered that the energy beam was heading straight for him. But just about half a metre to his position, the beam collided with an invisible force that shielded Maverick from the beam. The collision of the beam with the force resulted in an explosion that enveloped the entire place, owing to its destructive nature.Seconds later and the explosion cleared and Maverick will be seen unscathed. Not just himself now, but the other children that were on the ground.Maverick looked away from Supremus and then at the children who were besides him. He had also shielded them from the beam and explosion. He extended his energy towards th

He saw that they would pass out soon enough and be crushed to squat in no time.Adrian was also surprised at the technological advancement of supremus, seeing how he had been able to harness and use the pure energy with his technology, even without being able to naturally use talents like the others. "Maverick, help" Alyssa struggled to cry out finally, as her eyes began Rolling into the back of her head, bones creaking and blood rolling out of her nose and ears. Maverick was still so consumed by anger from the black energy coursing through his body that he didn't think of anything else but to destroy the robot. But still, he heard her faintly and his att

Adrian said with a soft smile.Maverick gritted his teeth in anger and then tried to break free of his restraints, but he was still so weak."You made me kill innocent people" Maverick verbally confronted him, still angry with the incident in the old world where he was compelled to slaughter the innocent villagers for telling him the truth. "I had no choice, you were poking around so much, so I did what I had to do." Adrian answered whilst continuing with what he was doing on the computer. Maverick gritted his teeth seeing no hint of remorse in both men. At this point, he was certain that they no longer had any bit of humanity left in them."I promise you, I'll get you for this and I'll kill you." Maverick swore. "I doubt that. Supremus, I'm ready.

"We have to move before the robot or any other comes back to finish the job." the other said, helping one of them up.Alyssa groaned, feeling very exhausted because every bit of energy in her body had been drained. The other boy helped her up and then they reminisced on what happened. "They took Maverick" one of them said. "We have to go after them and save him." Alyssa added, struggling to get back up on her own as she was slowly recovering strength."I don't think we can take that robot on our own." one of the returnees lamented. "Were you able to find a way out?" Alyssa asked. "Yes, we overheard one of the armed men saying there's a shuttle on the roof. That will be our best method of escape at this point." he replied.

The man who conversed with the system earlier was watching and he was perplexed and awed."Such potent light energy, I must have it." he exclaimed as he licked his lips."Now I see why this Maverick boy is very important. His energy will help us by leaps and bounds. I must have it. "He stood up from the chair he was sitting on and watched the holographic screen in front of him with so much interest. With a push of a button in his wristwatch he contacted the man behind the system persona."Adrian, throw in everything we have. Send in the recent models of the hunters. "he instructed. When Adrian, the man with the system persona heard it he objected at first. "Sir but…"But the man interrupted brashly. "Adrian, I am the boss here and do what I say.

    Chapter 130.Even in the light that have momentarily enveloped the area and blinded the place, Maverick kept moving. He leapt to the roof and ran on it to get to the armed men. He could not see, but he could sense just very fine.The armed men kept shooting since there was nothing else they could do, they couldn't see and they couldn't just wait until they were able to see again.The lasers they were firing off was so powerful that it was able to easily penetrate through the metals on the ground and floor and doing significant damage.Maverick dropped in thier midst and punched the two behind the lead armed man, very hard. The punch sent them flying backwards since maverick used a lot of power for it. The third man realizing what was happening immediately aimed his gun at maverick and was about shooting him down but immediately the man was kicked in his face by the girl that had met Maverick before. The light receded and everyone could see again. The lead armed man saw that none of

    Chapter 129."No no no, not again. It's happening again."Maverick exclaimed in horror as he held his head and shook it, trying to wake up from the dream if it was a dream. But after several attempts with no successful result, he just gave up and sat on the ground, distraught. His exclamation and behaviour surprised everyone else in the room, since they were somehow confused as to what was happening."What's happening?" one of them finally asked, looking at everyone and at Maverick so that he could find an answer. There were several mumbles but at the end there was no response, obviously because none of them knew what was happening. Then all eyes turned to Maverick who was folded like a ball on the ground, lamenting. "um hello? Sir?" a feminine voice spoke, talking Maverick.Maverick looked up and saw a girl looking at him, she was really among the group. She had blonde hair and was cute."Please do you know what is happening?" she asked him.Maverick remained silent as he looked a

Them of them looked at each other and then nodded before they looked at Jiren who was already approaching them.Jiren was coming closer and then could sense the build up of energy from him again. Jiren's hands were getting cold as he prepared to use the same technique he used before, this time much stronger than he used before so that he would be able to kill them both. The monsters from his chest were already getting antsy and ready to devour more things, moving around Jiren in readiness. "Listen Maverick, he's most vulnerable when he does this technique, make sure you don't miss. I have seen what will happen should you fail, the world will be destroyed, do not fail."Maxwell said again.Maverick nodded after the director finished speaking. He wasn't sure what he was supposed to do, but he knows that whatever happens he must do something to kill Jiren.At the pr

    Chapter 127"Just die Maverick" Jiren yelled as he punched Maverick on the cheek and the impact blasted Maverick away like a rocket.Jiren opened his mouth as wide as he could like he was about to roar, the moment he did so, he channelled all the energy in his body into his mouth and he screamed abruptly.By this time, Maverick was trying to get back his balance, the force of the punch he had received had damaged his jaw and caused him to start bleeding but he did not relent and was still willing to get back into the fight.Maverick's senses picked up large amounts of energy accumulating and when he looked at Jiren as he was being thrown back, he saw Jiren opening his mouth and the moment he did he saw him scream.The scream was followed by an emission of destructive black energy that ransacked th4 environment aimed straight at maverick. The energy cleared the already barren desert and blasted Maverick back into the city. Maverick felt his entire body burning as he was blasted by the
