"Sigh, I only had one of those new prototype bullets given to us by the lab. What a waste to use it on a kid, " Perfecto muttered in disappointment as he gazed at the gun in his hand.The APF lab had created a new type of bullet while keeping the Variants in mind.Some of the Variants were strong and were able to survive for longer even after being shot before actually dying because of their adrenaline and Variant Genes.These bullets worked to kill them right away without giving them even a moment to stand. It was said to work like that because it was made with a mixture of the normal bullet with some more special materials that worked to send extreme pain in the nerves of the variants right away to make them instantly incapable.None of these worked as well separately, but as they were made into one, they were able to kill anyone as soon as the bullet entered their body, no matter how big their size was.Only the Variants of the APF who used the guns were given these bullet prototyp
Zoom turned back as he saw Zach walk past him.They were both supposed to stay away from this guy as they fought. Why was this man closing in instead? Had he lost his mind after seeing the boy heal?"What are" Zoom screamed in annoyance, but his mouth opened slightly as he saw what was transpiring.His startled expression rapidly shifted to a smile."That's right. Why was -worrying? " he cackled at the sight that made him pleased.He could see Zach standing before him, with his right hand raised towards Shawn.He has created a storm of flame that took Shawn in its embrace, burning his body slowly."Every ability is worthless when you're ash, " Perfecto murmured in the distance as he saw what Zach was trying to do.They didn't understand what Shawn's ability was to make him heal or what its limitation was. But what they knew was that no healing could work when one was ash.That's what Zach was using his powers for. He wanted to burn Shawn to ash right away.This had gone on for too lon
The flames kept scorching Shawn's skin which kept healing just as quickly now that the flames were less fierce."Tell me the name of the facility I was kept in for years, " Shawn commanded Zach as he opened his mouth that looked bizarre as its tissues were burning and healing simultaneously."What the heck are you talking about? I don't know where it is. All | got is the information to catch you, " Zach answered back. "My seniors will know more about it, though. If you surrender, I'll help you find all the information you need. "He continued stepping back as the surrounding temperature kept rising due to his flames while continuing to try to maintain his distance.Shawn stepped towards Zach, letting himself get injured to help his healing when he noticed Enforcer bringing his phone out.As he saw Enforcer taking out the phone, he slowly raised his right hand and pointed towards Enforcer.Zach wondered why Shawn was pointing towards Enforcer when his face suddenly turned pale.He noti
As Shawn gazed at the phone's screen, he saw two buttons.He pressed the green button and placed the phone closer to his ears."Zach, What's the status? Did you find that boy there or not? I'm on my way, but it'll take me another hour. Answer me if you found him, " the man on the other end of the call said, sounding calm yet curious at the same time."Zach can't come to the phone right now. He's a little... busy, "Shawn answered, gazing down at the lifeless body near his feet."Who are you? Where is Zach? "the man asked, as his voice got a bit louder."Me? I think I'm the one you're looking for. Zack is unconscious lying below my feet, and if you don't answer me, he'll die, " Shawn said, lying to get what he wanted.He didn't care if he had to use tricks. Zach had said that his seniors might know. From the way the man talked, he was probably Zach's senior. He must know the answers, Shawn assumed.***In a different part of the country, a group of people were sitting on a helicopter
Some of the Delta Squad members started to collect the bodies while the others went to the surrounding houses to search for Shawn.Florence, on the other hand, had stepped inside the house of Zale Azarel to check.Xander walked towards the dead body of Zach as he placed his phone near his ears after dialling a number."Distribute Shawn Azrael's picture to the cops and the army. Also, tell the Legion City administration to barricade the whole city. I don't want anyone to leave. “Even though he gave the command, he had second thoughts right away."No, wait. Don't distribute his image right now. Wait for me. I'll be back and tell you what to do with that. For now, just tell the Legion City administration to barricade the city so that no one leaves, especially a kid. "After saying that, he disconnected the call and placed the phone in his pocket."You're right. There's no one inside the house."A voice came from behind Xander, sounding like it belonged to Florence."It did seem like a
The whole city of Legion was barricaded, and everyone leaving the city was being checked thoroughly. Unfortunately the person they were trying to find had already left the city before Xander even gave the order to block the city.In any case, even Xander hadn't expected him to be in the city even though it was blocked.At the moment, Shawn was already 300 kilometres away from Legion City. His speed was much faster as he was using his Wind to move and keep his speed fast, but it also started to consume his energy and made him hungry.He didn't have any food on him, and his stomach was starting to growl.Throughout the day, he hadn't eaten anything, and it was already evening now.He had slowed down his speed considerably as he thought about finding a place to rest.Looking around, he saw a tree nearby. He walked towards the tree and sat under it as he rested his back against it."The food is becoming a problem. I can't cook, and I can't carry much food with me at once either. I nee
"Mother? " Shawn finally let out one word with trembling lips.The woman before him. That was his mother. But how? How was she alive? Moreover, why did she never come to take him from that place if she was alive?"Why didn't you come before? "Shawn said a few more words as a single droplet of tears trickled down his right cheek."Mother? Eh, what are you talking about" the silver-haired woman asked, seemingly confused. "Oh wait, I heard about this. The trauma of an accident can make it happen. Your memories are jumbled. I'm so sorry. I didn't intend it. I'll get you the best medical help | can. ""This voice... "Previously Shawn was more immersed in seeing his mother, so he hadn't noticed, but her voice was different. It wasn't what he remembered. Her looks might be the same, but her voice didn't match.Shawn couldn't understand what was happening. Why was her voice different? Moreover, why didn't she recognize him?It had been five years indeed, and his face changed a bit but still.
Shawn was told to stay behind, have dinner, and rest.He couldn't help but wonder what he could do. He was a bit shaken up after seeing a woman with his mother's face, but she was also a human, and he had learned not to trust humans.Inside his head, many thoughts floated. Was this a scheme from someone? Were they trying to trap him? Some of his questions were even a bit naive as he wondered if someone used his mother's face.He could see a bit of truth on the faces of these women, but then again, that was the same for the restaurant owners. He had also misunderstood them and thought them to be a nice couple. That only worked to prove that even the nicest-looking people could easily be beasts inside.But then again, he also realized that he was hungry. In any case, he needed to find food, and here he was being given. In any case, he could only eat and leave before any scheme was hatched against him.What could they even do? He couldn't die. He also had faith that his healing was going
IT ENDS HERE"I see now. Everyone has a story to tell." Black Heart sighed."Very well, locate Jian and Akira, it's time we finish this the right way.""Already did Father." Erik said with a smile."I'm not saying I forgive you for ditching us and going all bloodlust back then, but for Japan, I'm willing to let bygones be bygones." Jian said as he opened the door leading to the roof."What Jian meant to say is that, it's nice to see you again Mr Black Heart." Akira said with an amiable smile."I'm glad you two are not against me. Now, what shall we do about our numbers. We barely have enough men to take down the Triads manor " Black Heart said."I have a few men, they are my closest aides in the Yakuza, and they will storm the manor tonight. During the chaos we will be able to go deep into the manor." Akira said."Splendid! it ends here!" Black Heart exclaimed in Joy.*The streets of Tokyo's Shinjuku district were always alive with activity, but tonight they pulsed with tension. The
“Hey you! Get out of here before I do something nasty!” the toy salesman shouted at Lucifer when he saw the teenage boy staring at the glass case. Lucifer paid him no heed and the man's face twisted in a grimace."Guards! This kid is not listening. Take this useless kid and throw him out!" The salesman said as he looked towards the guards."I am not useless!" Lucifer suddenly roared as he was again called useless. Black Thunder started cracking around him, shocking even the salesman. His voice seemed to contain a mysterious power that made it as intimidating as the roar of a lion. Not only the salesman but even the red-haired man was shocked as he looked back."Get back! He is an Awakened One! Move back; he is losing..." The red-haired man let out in warning, but it was too late. Before he could even complete his sentence, he saw Lucifer holding the neck of the man and crushing it entirely.The guards were horrified as they saw the salesman being killed. They raised their guns and aim
"Don't laugh at him. He might be homeless orphan who found some old clothes of someone in a dumpster or something, the woman replied to her son."There are many like him. Just ignore him." She continued walking holding her son's arm. while Lucifer heard the child's words and gazed at his clothes. It was right. He did think he looked odd. He once again shifted his blank gaze towards the child- sİzed mannequin that had clothed that was going to fit him perfectly. He started walking towards the shop instead. Just as he was walking towards the doors, another person was walking in his direction.It was a young red-haired man who was wearing a green t-shirt and black pants. He had donned a black coat over his clothes that had a Red Eagle Symbol on the chest. The man seemed to be in his mid-twenties only.Lucifer stepped closer to the shop and reached out his hand to open the door, but to his surprise, the doors slid to the side on their own as soon as he got near. Tilting his head slightly,
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, giving the world some warmth. Refreshing winds were flowing through the city of Ikrego, brushing against Lucifer's face as he reached the new city. The city seemed a bit bigger than anything he had seen before. In fact, it happened to be even biggerbthan the Legion City, which was the largest city he had seen before.There were beautiful houses everywhere. Even though Lucifer hadn't stepped inside the city, he could still see the beautifulbstructures of the city. There were also two tall statues placed at the entrance of the city of Ikrego, which seemed to look like humans. Lucifer didn't know about this, but the statues belonged to the previous heads of the Red Eagles Guild, which had its headquarters inside the city.Red Eagles was a guild that consisted of Hunters who went inside Dungeons to keep the Monster Index in control. Even though it was a big group and part of the Hunter Association, it hadn't always been an organization. In fact, it
Xander and Flourance were shocked when they saw the footage of the inhumane torture on a fifteen-year-old kid. They could see the boy's body twisting and turning in pain before he ultimately stopped moving.Xander was clenching his fist uncontrollably. Flourance was also shocked."This is torture! How can they be so inhumane to a little child?" Flourance commented."So they killed the boy, and now he's back for revenge. There is no Dark Variant Uprising angle in this anymore. It's all a tragedy made by humans." he further added, still enraged."Because of their stupidity, they put the whole world in danger." Xander hadn't spoken anything. But his face was saying everything. He seemed enraged, as if he wanted to destroy something.However, something happened. All his anger disappeared as a calm and serene emotion overtook him. His other ability had started acting. It was his Emotion Control that kept his emotion in control and prevented him from losing emotions whenever he was about t
Drak instantly opened his eyes and looked at Xander as he heard the words. It was as if his pained nerves were pressed. He also noticed a picture in Xander's hands was that of his sister and his mother."Are you threatening me?" Drak asked, frowning."How low can you fall? Going after my family?""You said you don't care if the world is destroyed. I'm just reminding you. If the world is destroyed, then don't forget, your family is a part of this world too. It would not only affect you and me but millions of people like her too." Xander replied calmly."I read your file, and I know about your family. The Beta team had also managed to locate your family when they were trying to find you," he further continued, ignoring the question as he walked closer to Drak to help him better see the image.Drak reached out his hand to hold the image, but before his hand could touch the picture, it was burned to ashes in the flames that appeared in Xander's hand out of nowhere."Do you want to know ab
The silence in Ayn's office was ultimately broken by her sigh itself."Alright. I'Il allow you to meet him. I won't let him leave the cell, though. You can take a laptop to his cell and have him help you." She stopped using her powers. Xander also stopped at the same time."He would not help you for no reason, though," She muttered as she placed her fingers on her chin."Leave that to me. I'll handle that. All you need to do is let me enter his cell and turn off the cameras for as long as I'm inside, " Xander said with a subtle smile on hisface."Alright. " Ayn tapped a button that was on her table while she simultaneously opened a drawer, bringing a laptop out of it."One of my men will take you to the cell. I will turn off the cameras from here after you get in the cell. Here, you can use this laptop. It has a masked ID; the Military won't be able to track it even if they find the hack, " She said as she gave Xander the laptop."I appreciate it. " Suddenly, there was a knock on the
After a few minutes, Lucifer picked up the last piece as he finally moved. He started walking towards the man who had been trying to drag his frail and injured body away from Lucifer. Unfortunately, despite Lucifer giving him so much time, he wasn't able to get much farther. He could only drag himself for a few meters. Lucifer easily closed in on the distance."Forgive me! Please forgive me! I'll be a good man. I won't do it again. I swear on my life."Gazing down at the man who was holding his hands, begging Lucifer to free him. Seeing no change in Lucifer's expression despite his begging, he changed his approach.'He's a kid. AlI kids love their parents,' he thought as he decided what to do."Think about your parents. What would they think if they knew their son was a murderer? Let me go. Walk on the righteous path and make your parents proud! "Albeit, his words fell on deaf ears, it seemed. Lucifer wanted to do it the same way since the man wanted to use his feet to show his crude
Even though he had S-Rank abilities, it wasn't as easy. Despite having the same S-Rank Super Strength, his strength was nowhere near the level of his father. He didn't even have one percent strength of his father just because his control and experience were lacking. It was a newly gained power.Generally, he shouldn't have been able to use even a fraction of this power without training, but surprisingly he could. It was unclear why it was that way. Maybe because he had seen his parents use their powers previously when they trained. Or perhaps it was something else.Despite only having the fractional strength of his father, his Super Strength was way stronger than any normal human can hope to comprehend, which only showed how strong his Father must have been. That was why his father was called the Strongest Warlock. He was just in a different realm altogether.Shawn was still sitting in a forest, cooking a beast that he had hunted. There was still half a day of distance between him and
