"Stay focused, everyone!"Dim-Dim scanned his surroundings, only to see the three monsters emerging through the door at the arena's edge."Get ready!" exclaimed Clarinassa, adjusting her infrared goggles as the lights dimmed around them. "This batch of Monsterbots is programmed to target Illicitor first," she said.Without further ado, Dim-Dim transformed into a Eurasian owl and flew away from the others.He spotted Velicia, her hair glowing blue, as the three Monsterbots charged towards her."We need a plan!" Velicia yelled. "How do we take these Monsterbots down?""There is no plan!" Damian answered, running towards her. They met in the middle of the arena, and Damian intercepting the monsters while Velicia kept running."Bottom line, don't get hit until we destroy these robots!" Clarinassa said. "Anyone got scratched will be disqualified from the monster type S capture mission!"Hearing this, Dim-Dim hurriedly flew towards Icaros, one of the Monsterbots chasing him at heart-poundin
The mission of capture the type S monster started suddenly.Dim-Dim was asleep in his room, dreaming of a forest whirling rapidly around him as if he were running—when suddenly his phone blared, notifying him of a new mission.Dim-Dim's eyes opened, and though slightly dizzy, he immediately got up. And with a wide yawn, he exchanged his pajamas to his glowing-in-the-dark Illicitor uniform, its color a bright blue.He was attaching weapons and various important items to his pocket holster when suddenly he heard the sound of squealing tires of vans outside the building, followed by the sound of footsteps of people running outside his room."Dim-Dim, hurry up!" a few seconds later, he heard Clarinassa knocking on his room door."Wait a moment!" Dim-Dim yelled back, while searching for his communication earpieces.When he was ready to pack, about 30 seconds later, there were already three vans waiting in front of the building.Clarinassa immediately pulled him towards their team van parke
"Mm... Damian? I also felt unwell one day after seeing my hair turn white for the first time," Velicia said. And suddenly Dim-Dim felt his heart pounding hard. "Maybe... you're not sick, but... yeah. Maybe you get a superpower," she continued."Wait, you mean—" Dim-Dim couldn't even finish his sentence now."Well, if what you felt last night wasn't just your imagination, then you have superpowers, Damian," Velicia said again."And your power is turning your skin as hard as a Type A monster's skin, that's pretty cool, actually," Oriyan said. "That's the kind of power that would make me very jealous.""But, guys, I'd worry if we lose the number one Venator in the world. It would be a disaster," Flo said. "Even though we'll get an Illicitor with powers similar to a number one Venator, I'm still...""No, don't give me that kind of hope," Damian said. "Not everyone can have superpowers. The chances are even less than 0.1%. Most people who get superpowers are either old or children, but I—"
They arrived at the location at five in the morning, and Dim-Dim was shocked to see that the hiding place for the S-type monsters was a large building with a canopy built on an open landscape, a vast grassy plain, surrounded by cliffs.For the next fifteen minutes, Oriyan attempted to check the area and returned with a report that the building had no windows, and its walls were as strong as the outer walls of Safe City, which were no less than fifteen meters thick and made of concrete and steel."Okay, we'll attack them in half an hour," said Clarinassa, and instantly Jay and Mouse ran in opposite directions to find a place to set traps, while the snipers searched for good and strategic yet hidden spots on the cliffs.Dim-Dim was warming up inside the van when Damian suddenly called him through the communication device embedded in his ear."Dim-Dim," Damian said, his voice hoarse. "I'm not feeling well. Later, during the mission, please don't rely too much on me. And if something happ
When type S monsters appear, Dim-Dim feels an overwhelming urge to escape. But he can't because Damian is being attacked by many type A monsters, and it's impossible for Damian to escape."Damian's superpower must be considered very strong," said Velicia, panicking. She made her hair shine very brightly so that everyone was forced to turn away from her, and she stood in front of Damian to keep the monsters away from him."Abort the plan! Oriyan, cover Damian to the monster trap!" shouted Valir. "I, Clark, Icaros, and George will focus on type S monsters, the rest get rid of type A monsters from us!""Let's go!" Dim-Dim turned into a very large stallion, and then Damian and Velicia got on him. Then he dashed towards the trap. And instantly, all the type A monsters chased after them.Oriyan ran behind them, occasionally shooting the monsters chasing them. The snipers also did the same."Damisch! Stop looking back!" shouted Oriyan. But Damian's didn't listen."Clary!" Damian shouted. "Be
"Let's check it out," Oriyan said. "Lottie, wait here until Damian arrives," he said to Charlotte, then readied his weapon. "Let's go," he said to the others.So, Dim-Dim, Oriyan, Flo, and Gerald headed towards the secret room, which was located slightly lower than the previous room.The room looked like someone's bedroom, complete with a rumpled bed, a small TV, a food storage cabinet, an electric stove, and a washing machine.But the fact that all these items were crammed into a small room paled in comparison until they all saw who was lying on the bed. The three people were Icaros, Icule, and Xin. Foam was coming out of their mouths."Xavier!" Oriyan shouted into his communication device, and at the same time, Gerald also yelled the name of the doctor on his team. "Vincent!""We found them, and they're showing signs of poisoning," Oriyan said."Vincent will come," Gerald said. "He's dealt with cases like this before, and he can save them."But Oriyan's eyes were fixed on Icule, who
"Tell me, what do you remember about Dr. Loghan?" asked a woman, wearing the typical attire of the Society.They had returned to Safe City, and now Dim-Dim found himself being interrogated by the Society. They also interrogated Clarinassa, who claimed that Mr. Loghan suddenly appeared outside the window on the night she stayed at Dim-Dim's house.Clarinassa admitted that the old man suddenly appeared at the window of the room where she was staying."The old man told me that he had heard rumors that there were Venators in the city, and he asked if I was one. I said, 'yes, I am a Venator,' and then he told me that he had superpowers to see the future and he was very anxious if there were monsters that would appear in front of his house.""Was there already a rumor circulating at that time that people with superpowers would be chased by monsters?" asked a Society member, and Clarinassa nodded."Yes, Dim-Dim told me that he heard rumors at his school about it, right, Dim-Dim?"And since t
At the end of March, the Venators and Illicitors held an event to honor the fallen Venators during the winter season and those Venators who would retire.The tradition was only done four times a year and held privately. On that day, there would be no training, and all Venators and Illicitors would go to the cemetery in their best uniforms, carrying bouquets for the team leaders, and cakes or drinks for team members. Later, each team leader of the fallen members would present the bouquet to the grave of the fallen member, then give a kind of simple speech about the deceased. Then, after honoring the fallen Venators and Illicitors, they would hold an event to honor the retiring Venator, something that rarely happened because Venators had contracts almost for life, unless the Venator suffered a serious injury or illness that forced them to retire.Today, Damian was retiring. The Venators gave him small cakes along with greetings, "Thank you for being willing to spar with me all this time
