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 32Maverick, James and Hermione came out of the portal, looking all battered than when they had gone in. All their clothes were ripped apart and burnt out, the only solid piece of clothing they still had left was the armour like chest jacket they wore for added protection. Mavericks Was worse since one of his boots was missing. The moment they came out they found the two survivors receiving medical treatment and they were pleased to know that they will be alright. They took them in immediately to run tests just in case they had come across any foreign contaminants that may be harmful to mankind.Afterwards they entered their vehicle and drove back to the bureau facility to give their reports. On the way back, Hermione looked at Maverick and then smiled.."you did good today Maverick, I'm glad you did not die""Thanks. I'm glad we made it out alive too." Maverick said, as he relaxed on the chair, closing his eyes and then drifted off to sleep. James didn't really say anything
Chapter 33That night, Maverick had a nightmare and he jolted awake, sweating and panting. He looked at the time and saw that it was just 2am in the morning. He looked around and then sighed. He had dreamt that he watched his parents die again just the same way they had died before in his past life, and in the dream he could stop crying and blaming himself for their death. He woke up with the dame guilt hanging on his chest like it had actually happened. Maverick began thinking about how everything happened last time. Until he had died in his past life he was never able to discover just what led to his parents death, or what may have caused it. He doesn't know if it was caused by monsters or if they were poisoned. But he suspected that he was caused by monsters.After the portals opened in his last life, there were strange deaths and occurrences that humanity could not explain. Caused by the monsters that had escaped from their portals. He vividly remembered one occasion where a
Chapter 34 FIVE MONTHS LATER. Maverick and his team just came out of a portal after successfully claiming it. The moment they did, everyone around started clapping and cheering them up for the successful completion of the mission that otherwise seemed so difficult.Maverick smiled as he scratched the back of his head not really wanting the cheers, but it really felt good. Reminded him of how popular he was in his last life.Maverick remembered just how popular he had been in his past life and it made him nostalgic. The alpha team had become one of the most popular A class teams around because of their success rates when it comes to completing missions, but it still couldn't be compared to his previous life. It was so because the specialised team do not really get much credit for the missions they get, they are mostly the kind of people that operate behind the scenes, so the public do not really know so much of their exploits to even consider them to be people worth knowing. This po
Chapter 35 Maverick tried to sleep but he couldn't, he was tired from the last mission and needed the rest but it seemed something out there was out to make sure he didn't sleep.The alarm going off in the bureau had woken him up. "Sleeping in tHs place is always so impossible" he groaned as he rolled over and placed his pillow over his head to block off the blaring alarm.The alarm always goes off whenever they discover a new portal. Whenever a new portal is reported to have been opened, the alarms go off to alert every talented in the building so that they can go out and immediately close the portal.However Maverick didn't get up, since he was just coming back from a mission several houses ago and needed to rest to replenish his strength.****"What's happening?" Natasha asked, she knew what was happening but she just wanted an affirmation from the people working in the control room."A new portal has been reported to have opened in town, just in front of the main roads in town.
Chapter 36"We're number one again on the popularity list." Talia said to Jiren as they were in a vehicle on their way to their new mission."huh?" Jiren said as he looked at her, obviously lost in thought."I say we are number one again on the popularity list, our team." she said this time, waving her phone in his face to show him what the news said."oh, yes of course. Did you expect anything less?" He smiled. "not really but it's expected since we've been doing so well in all our missions lately" "Thanks to me that is." Jiren smirked. "oh please, you're invisible in the team""You jest, I am the success of our team. You know it." he bragged with confidence. "Okay, okay. Maybe you helped a little but don't flatter yourself." Talia said wanting to irk him more. But he just rolled his eyes and looked at the window And then he asked. "what do you expect from the mission today?""I dunno, they said it's a C class portal. We should be fine." Talia said, as she went back to pressing
