“The one who did these experiments… was me?”

Grumble~

The basement floor shakes.

“What was that just now?” Xaviel looked around, trying to make sure they were in a safe spot, as Ria lost her balance and fell to the ground.

“I….I remembered…” She said.

Xaviel turned his eyes towards Ria, who was filled with tears.

“This was all my doing… I experimented on the corpses of the prisoners…” She dropped down. “My… sisters, where are they…? No, No, No… I have no one left. My sisters are no longer here with me…”

She looked up at Xaviel with furious eyes and shouted, “You… you killed them all!!!”

Xaviel drops down as he puts his arm on Ria’s shoulders. “I am sorry, Ria, it was my fault… I…”

SLAP!

Ria slapped Xaviel’s face as she went on to punch him to the ground. She straddles Xaviel’s body and screams hysterically, “I am going to kill you! You bastard!!” Ria punched Xaviel repeatedly, but he didn’t dodge any of her hits. Her movement then slowed down as she started crying hysterically.

    Xaviel woke up in his original world. Yet something was different. He was not inside his own body. Instead, he was currently seeing his own body lifeless on life support. “What the hell?” Xaviel said. Though it would seem no one can hear his words. “Is this for real?” That was the only question on his mind. He can hear everything in the hospital room. See everything inside the hospital room. Yet, in contrast, he cannot interact with people inside the room. His attempt to touch the people around him would only result in him phasing through them. “No. What am I supposed to do then?” Xaviel asked himself. He can see his mother, Judith Lorenius, crying beside the bed his body was located in. To his surprise, however, the one beside him was not someone he had expected to be there. Instead of Gregory(his stepfather), the man beside Judith, who was currently comforting her was none other than his biological father, Robert E. Mobius. “He’s a strong child. He will survive, don’t worry

    .TSUSTUSCHUT!.Xaviel woke up with Ria on his side. She was letting out tears, speaking inaudible words. After a while, Xaviel began to hear what she had said.“Xaviel… wake up… wake up…”Xaviel moved his eyes. As Ria noticed it, she rubbed her tears away and said, “Are you okay?”Clearly not understanding the situation at all, Xaviel stayed silent to her words. Ria then continued with a question. “For a few minutes, you were lying on the ground, and I can’t detect any living presence inside you… It was like you died.”Xaviel didn’t understand why Ria would react like that. Isn’t she the one who also wanted to take revenge on him? to kill him? Why is she acting like this?“I thought killing you was the perfect catalyst for my satisfaction. And yet, I only felt sadness seeing you lying down lifeless like that.”Xaviel stared at Ria, who was now letting out her tears again.“I am not sure what to do. I am so lost. I have no one.”Ria kept going on as she was frustrated with her feelin

    BOOM!Xaviel crashed on one of the pillars inside the throne room. Victor, the figure wearing black and red armor, stands tall with his spear on his left and clenched fist on his right.“If you don’t get serious and show me ‘that’ anytime soon, you won’t get any other chance to defeat Victor.”Xaviel pants as he stood up. His body was covered in rubbles and cuts from the battle with Victor. He gritted his teeth as he unleashed his power. White light encumbered Xaviel’s right hand. A glow was exerted from it as a short flash of light emerged toward Victor and Victoria Mylen.“Is this what you call a Transcendence?”Xaviel had once again unlocked his ability to use phantom armament with extreme precision to the point of manipulating atomic particles. He began to levitate as he raised his right arm at Victor. “This will be the end of you.”Light gathered around Xaviel as he charged for an upcoming attack. Undoubtedly, this attack will be the [Phantom Sphere] that has proved to be effecti

    Revenger’s Tragedy 3( Acting. It is something people always does. Most do it out of fun. )(Out of hobby.)(Yet some do it out of necessity.)(To do what you may ask?)(To fit in.)Xaviel charged in as he moved his dagger obliterating the marrionetes of Victoria Mylen from left to right. Making his way to reach her.“Pink Flash”ZWOONGA sound ringed in Xaviel’s ears as a figure appeared in front of him aiming to impale him with its lance.The speed of the lance thrusting him was too great Xaviel’s left arm was impaled.CRUAK!In the split second after the impalement, he struck the tip of the lance with his dagger disfiguring the weapon.“So you pay heed to my words only to wait for Victor to recover? I can’t say I expect that.”“Wasn’t that the oldest trick in the book?”“Heh. Of course I was bluffing.”“What?”SRSTSTST!!!Sparks appeared around Victoria’s body.“Guh..I can’t believe you are still alive after that…”“Hahaha.” Xaviel smiled as he looked at the person behind Victoria.

    (Victoria and I..We are not so different.We are that kind of people that liked to act.Hide beneath our masks.The difference was only the roles.I choose the role of a hero.She had accepted her role as the villain.)Another one of Xaviel’s exploding pebbles destroyed Victoria Mylen’s puppets army. Meanwhile in that period before the throw, Victor squared and fought with Xaviel in hand to hand combat. One in which Xaviel is better at.A few days ago, Xaviel was not the best fighter. Yet the fight with Maru, Krey, Zedafaust, and Victor Magnifica had thoroughly made him study and became a better hand to hand fighter.His instinct, awareness, and endurance had developed drastically. Or was it something else that had made him this powerful?Victor landed hits on Xaviel in which he made the air around him dense. Reducing the speed of the impact from Victor’s punches. So at the moment of impact Xaviel can perform a disarming strike to avoid that offensive move.As a counter he used his d

    The smile that made him remember their first fight together. That day Hoff Crestia was giving the same smile as he is now towards Xaviel.“I want to see your conviction.”Words he had spoken rings inside Xaviel’s head. Those same words gave him his courage back.Hoff summoned the bubbles again as it targeted Xaviel. In retaliation he ran through the room evading it.(You are clearly planning something.Yet, I can’t understand it.Was it perhaps?Acting to buy time for me to give Victoria these memory core?)With a huge force, Xaviel lunged forward as he and Hoff started to fight hand to hand. Xaviel and Hoff moved throughout the room dodging each other’s fists. Rarely did the both of them crashed their fist onto one another.BUK! BUK! BUK!Three hits landed on Hoff’s face. It was a left hook right hook and uppercut combo made by Xaviel.Countering the attack, Hoff grabbed Xaviel’s wrist as he launch his knee onto his stomach. Now grabbing back his head, Xaviel was threwn off balance w

    “The previous limitations that Hoff has will no longer be of effect. My forte energy is nigh unlimited!” Zedafaust said. Xaviel moved his body towards Hoff who was now expanding his defensive field into the entire room.“At best, you will instantly die the moment you experience this technique!”Bubbles with flaming green particles are floating inside the field. The golden dome was coated with greenish bubbles all around.“Destructive Field!” Zedafaust said with a dark, gleeful smile. It was the moment when Xaviel and Victoria couldn’t hope to evade...Yet the words that came out of his were different.“Destructive Field: Coffin.” Hoff chanted.Realizing what had happened, Xaviel looked at Hoff with a surprised look as he reached out his hand. Somehow, Xaviel’s instinct knew that if Hoff couldn’t afford to protect both Victoria and himself from his technique. He will be sure to make himself unable to hurt them.He showed Xaviel a sincere smile. “Take care of them for me!”Blood spurts

    ++ The following is a written documentation of the tragedy in the Mylenia Region. On Maylen 26th, A surge of energy was sighted below the region. According to the agents dispatched this surge of Forte Energy or 'Foen' had been discharged from a refugee of Priscote Town. Due to the Prince's wisdom, Sir Zedafaust was dispatched to combat the refuge. However, as he arrived at the scene, the refugee and its corpse were already disfigured.Evidence points towards a third party that interfered with Sir Zedafaust's mission. Simultaneously, revolutionary propaganda was orchestrated by a former ruling nobility and economic advisor of Lady Victoria Mylen, Hoff Praya Crestia. Combat records on his name showed how formidable he was. It can even be said that, by that time, he was the strongest person in Mylenia if one did not count Sir Zedafaust. So, Victor Magnifica was ordered to capture him. A capture warrant against him was also made, and when the appointed guards came to his house, his wife,

From the looks of it, it was as if they had been at it for a few hours.Yes, for the past 2 weeks according to schedule, I have been training with Mr. Jones."As expected from you Mr. Jones, not a single opening."He released air bullets which grazed my body."It’s been 2 weeks; when are you gonna master it, Ankara?"The reason behind our training is the fact our opponents, Goliadth and Jack Nelson, will no doubt be hard."You still have a far way to go if you wanted to at least stand a chance."

    “Joy Soda with three glasses,” Mikaila said as she served the beverage.“So this is your esteemed Joy Soda Ankara. It’s a shame I didn’t taste the one you made at the party.” Mr. Jones said.“Joy Soda, huh?” The green-eyed man said before pouring a glass for himself. GULPAs the liquid entered his system, he formed a smile. “This is good.” He said.“Thank you. Even though I didn’t make this batch, the server here learned it from me. So it’s a pleasure to know the drink is a delight,” I said.A few moments of silence passed by as I ate the Fried Rice.“Codename?” Mr. Jones asked towards the green-eyed man.“It’s Shielder, Mr. Hebsly.”Shielder huh? No wonder he seemed familiar; we fought before. His hair wasn’t white the first time we met, though.“Nice to meet you, Shielder. I am Varenza Shankara.” I offered a handshake.Shielder didn’t seem to form any expression and grabbed my hand. “Nice to meet you, General Ankara.”As we shook hands, the air of awkwardness spread.“By the tense

    A blade was thrusting from the back of Mr. Jones’s body. It had struck somewhere around his left chest. Most probably, his opponent was targeting his heart. Suddenly, another figure appeared and grabbed the stabber’s arm. With a powerful punch aimed at the stabber’s hip, the new figure launched the stabber away from Mr. Jones.Mr. Jones didn’t seem too bothered as he carefully assessed the situation. He lifted his red right hand towards the stabber and asked, “Did Jack send you?” The stabber stayed quiet, keeping his mouth shut.“Step aside,” He said as the new figure was hushed to step away.Mr. Jones released the trigger on his imaginary gun.BANG!A red light appeared from the chest area of the stabber. Blood spilled from the stabber’s mouth. As he was coughing up blood, Mr. Jones’ chest was filled with blue light. This blue light is a part of his Forte. This Forte is known as Red Right Hand: 2nd Barrel. It works as a means to counter damage. Any damage to Mr. Jones can be transferr

    The Fisherman and I follow Jack Nelson as the party ends instead of using a horse carriage or chariot like the other guests. They used a rather peculiar cart that used petrol and ran on wheels. I am familiar with that kind of cart. It's called a 'car' rather than a cart. People in Estovania used it quite a lot, yet they didn't first develop it. Most state-of-the-art stuff originated in Willhelmia or the 'Prince' region."That cart is very fast; how are we supposed to follow it?" I said."WOA-!" Fish shouted a little before I instinctively shut his mouth with my hands. "Shut the hell up, dumbass. We'll get caught!" I whispered as I slightly tightened my grip on his mouth. He reacted by nodding up and down. Only then did I release his mouth from my grasp."But why are you here, Vice-Boss Duke Hebsly?" He blatantly said."Don't say my name so casually. Dammit! And What else do you think I am here for? I am here to help you spy on Jack Nelson!" I replied."But the boss didn't say a thing a

    “Excuse me sirs and madam. I am here to serve wine.” A male servant went inside the table where the conspirators of Seraphinania is sitting. He placed the glass one by one, as another servant poured it down.“A perfect time for a drink isn’t it?” Oswald Leysom said enticing everyone to touch their respective glasses.“There might be some rough sides to this plan of ours. Yet, with all the people here, I am pretty sure we can pull it through quite nicely.” Ms. Eye said with confidence before glancing at Mr. Jones. “By the by, is Jones here the one who used to sell opium to the Molosno family?”Mr. Jones looks around as the attention turns towards him. “Yes. As a matter of fact, I am. Yet ever since one year ago, the distributor position for my opium is vacant.”“I see.” Ms. Eye drinks her wine before speaking again, “Then you indeed are Thomas Hebsly.”“Wonderful guess, Madam. How could you ever guess who he was?” Oswald said, making everyone else except Mr. Jones giggle. “I see. Then

    I walked with The Fisherman, Duke, and Gilman, who were now dressed as servants. They do look the part, but maybe Fisherman’s scar on his face gave it away that he wasn’t a servant.“Hey, you put this on,” I said giving him a bandage and instructing him to put it on his left cheek.“Will do, Boss-man!” Fisherman said.“Hey, it's hard to say 'Fisherman' all the time! Don’t you have a name we can call you by?” Gilman said.“Hmm, sure I have,” Fisherman smiled. He opened his mouth and said, “People usually call me Fish.”Duke flattened his eye annoyed by Fish’s and Gilman’s banter.“You know what, whatever. Fish is good enough.” Gilman said. “Oh yeah, everyone can call me Gil.”“Guys, I don’t want to break your spirits here. But you shouldn’t use your real name. We’re here to spy on people- You know what? I shouldn’t even be explaining all this to you two!

  • Chapter 60: Tea Party of Diana Mitchford

    A few days after the situation at the safe house, rumors of Sophaya, The Screaming Cinderella’s kidnap, began to surface. No doubt, this led to many people assuming Razor Peaks was the conspirator. Even though no one has asked us directly yet, I hear words regarding the situation, particularly through the words of the woman who wore the uniform.“Thanks for the drink,” I said while sitting in the chair inside the inn I stayed at.“Thank you for the drink, Missy!” Gilman said towards the woman in uniform.Yet, she can’t help but make a scrawny face. Unfortunately for Gilman, she remembered his face, which was the man who extorted her inn for money for quite some time. I drank my morning coffee, which alleviated my drowsiness. “Boss, it’s been quite a few days. Should we start the relocation again?”As per my planning, it is imperative for Sophaya to be relocated every three days due to many parties involved who wanted to kidnap her for ransom money.
