Turning her attention back to Hiro, Larissa places a finger to her chin thoughtfully. "I think I'll take my sweet time getting rid of you first. Then I can take my time with your companion," With that Larissa teleports behind Hiro and wraps her arms around his neck. Hiro struggles against her grasp but finds it difficult as he can feel his power fading as she takes hold on him. Hiro continues to struggle against her, until Fye sends Larissa crashing to the floor. Hiro quickly distances himself from Larissa to catch his breath and as he does so Larissa steps out from the crater left from her landing. "I'm going to ask that you don't interrupt me when I'm working, young lady. I will get to you when it is your turn. In the meantime, How about you play with these guys." Larissa snaps her fingers causing the ground to shake. From within the earth rise several zombies which crawl out from the soil. Each zombie stands tall and menacing with rotting flesh covering their bodies. "Now t
Hiro focuses his mana and summons a barrier around himself while Rio rains down fire on the crowd of Larissa clones. Rio's orbs tear through the clones like paper. Each one falling to the ground after receiving a direct hit from Rio's barrage. The sound of impact echoes across the area as dozens more clones fall to the ground dead or dying. Seeing the destruction that the wolf was able to cause in such a small amount of time, Larissa gasps in amazement. "This is what it means to have real power. I'll definitely make you mine." Larissa whispers softly. Her eyes glow brightly with excitement as she approaches Rio. "Come on now, come to mama." She charges forward at him, avoiding the fire coming from above Rio. As she gets closer, He readies himself. Stabbing her dagger towards RIo, Hiro swiftly moves in to block the strike with his sword and slashes downward towards her. Larissa dodges the slash effortlessly but her eyes widen in shock when Hiro grabs her arm with his free hand.
Two army's faced off against one another, monstrous beings tearing each other apart without any regard for the land around them. A scene that could only be described as a nightmare to anyone witnessing it. Blood dripped and splattered out as the fight raged. And as the battle continued, a single figure stood out from the pack. Raising its head high, It howled into the night as the moon casts its rays upon the divine beast. Fortunately, Rio was not just witnessing this scene, He was living it. Sitting down on the pile of blood and bones as he watched the madness unfold in front of him, he reminiscenced about what led him to this moment. He thought back to the day he first came to the organization, thinking that this was going to be a simple job. He would come in, Work and get out. He'd spent many years serving the organization, doing just that until one fateful day. Rio Tanajo had worked under another researcher for years who was pining for a higher position in the company. Rio nev
Rio looks around the room searching for anything resembling an exit. Looking back and forth around the room, there didn't seem to be any form of an exit. This was until Rio noticed a suspicious wall. Looking at it closely, it seemed to be the backside of a large bookcase. Rio can see a small lever hang on the side of the book case just out of reach. His new body is too small to reach the lever and his hooves don't help much in terms of climbing. Pondering what to do, Rio remembers what was given to him. "Get over here and pull this." He thinks as the hooded figure approaches the bookcase and pulls the lever. "This feels kind of weird but having someone do whatever I tell them could be pretty nice." With the lever pulled, the bookcase vibrates a bit before sliding to the side revealing a staircase leading upwards. "I guess this is my ticket out" Rio makes his way up the stairs and into a small dilapidated church. There's nothing of much interest inside. Everything looks as i
Rio wakes to the sound of banging coming from outside the hut. He jumps to his feet, almost falling off of the bed. "What is it?" the servant asks, rushing over to the door. "It's me," says a familiar voice. It sounds like the old man. The banging continues and Rio looks under the doorway revealing a pair of feet. Rio looks towards his servant with an angered expression. "Ugh, You can't even kill a weak old man!" He rages in his mind. "Just let him in already." Rio's servant bows his head to Rio and lets the old man in while Rio hides behind the door. Upon entering the room, The old man stares quietly at Rio's servant, eyeing him up and down. Rio notices this and gets a bad feeling. The old man remains silent, simply walking around the room, When suddenly his body begins to tremble. His mouth opens wide as Rio can see teeth forming inside. Turning to face the servant once more the old man's eyes flare up. Before Rio could think, the old man pounces on top of his servant, pin
Jumping out from the chest of an anomaly, Rio landed upon a mass of water. The water had risen so much that the streets were submerged and his small body would soon have to begin swimming through it. It had been 10 days since the start of the event and Rio could feel it. Every part of his body was sore and he was exhausted. For every one he took down, there were always two more to take their place. Although his stamina was naturally high in his current body, He still felt his legs shaking just from standing. Just as he thought that he could rest, He could see more anomalies rising from the waves. Rio had spent some time observing the anomalies within this event for a while. His curiosity to discover the mysteries within the town was far too great and he couldn't help but experiment as much as possible with this once in a lifetime opportunity. During his experiment he discovered that the town had a sort of hard reset. The new entities that take over appeared to have formed th
Rio carefully considered which choice would be best for him. All of them seemed to have great potential for him to become a stronger monster aside from the Pomeranian. The Berserker would have been an obvious choice but the downside was heavy. He would be able to gain more power along with a much larger body to handle his opponents easier. But on the other hand, His new appearance would definitely not go unnoticed and with his larger body, It would be far too easy to track him if he was ever spotted. The cat seemed to be a good choice. Although, he wasn't sure how well it would fit with his current abilities. Along with being uncertain on what the class Fencer really implied. Then there was the Influencer. To be honest, he wasn't too sure how this class would benefit him. It looked even weaker and smaller than he was currently. The only positive note was that its appearance was the closest to a normal dog. After waving his options, Rio decides that the best choice would be the Fe
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?" The operative begins to question Zack about what is happening in the house. Trying to keep calm, Rio orders Zack to answer his questions as if he was just arriving home. "I just got home and saw this man lying here." Zack answered. Vector keeps his guard up as he peeks at the body laying on the ground. He quickly notices the robes and steps into the room. Putting his gun up to Zack's head, Vector tells him to back up against the wall and face away. He still hadn't noticed Rio standing below him. Waddling to the backside of Vector He activates his domination. The ability activates with no problems as the pink aura appears around Vector's feet. After Zack faces the wall, Vector approaches the body of the dead man and takes a look at his boots. Holding an image up to the boots sole, he compares the two before bringing his hand up to his ear. "Vector to HQ, I've found the surviving serpents hand member within Clear water. Unfortunately, w
