"This is the place? it's really quite hidden" Aiden commented as he stared at the building a dozen feet away. Besides him was Gregory. "Yep. Not only is it located in a dangerous neighborhood,the local LEA patrolling the area are secretly under the payroll of the Battle Rambo's manager" Gregory nodded slowly. "Hm ? you mean to say the LEA accept bribes?" Aiden was taken aback momentarily."Heh. Wether it's the LEA or the Sentries, neither of them are Saints" Gregory patted Aiden on the shoulder as he began walking towards the Battle Rambo building. Since it was still currently the middle of the day, the battle Rambo wasn't that lively, with several staffs going about as they arranged the place in preparation for the activities to be held in the upcoming night. The duo entered the building with ease as Gregory headed straight towards the receptionist booth. Behind the booth was an old man with dirty beards drinking directly from the bottle of a beer. When the old man saw them app
"Ugh" Rin slightly winced as he rose up on his feet, slightly rubbing his head. Looking around, he noticed that the various customers and the bar tender in the bar were already giving him strange inquisitive looks. "Shit!" He suddenly cussed as terror flashed past in his eyes "You all should leave now before you get caught up in this!" he cried out a warning. Unfortunately, it was already too late for that. Whoosh Purple Rose appeared in front of him like a ghost, swinging her hands towards his stomach. The fingers of the Gauntlet she wore was was very sharp, with it's tip gleaming brilliantly. "Damnit!" somehow Rin could sense a serious threat from this strike which came as a surprise to him, considering the fact that he was extremely confident in the defensive capabilities of his physique. Not daring to take any chances, a pair of Bat like Wings unfurled behind him as he spun to the left while aiming the blades of the wings, slicing towards Purple Rose stomach. "Interes
"What did you do!?" for the first time, Purple Rose eyes became filled with terror as she looked at Aiden. "I just used my special ability on you. It would seem you are not so invincible as you think you are" Aiden chuckled casually as he said this. "Ngh" still feeling that wave of exhaustion, Purple Rose glanced at Rin who was besides Aiden, before breaking into a frown.. Not only was Aiden's attack strange and mysterious to her, it could also effortlessly bypass the effect of *Frog In A Well* , essentially stripping her of her *invincible* status. As a trained assassin of the Red Crows, she had a rich battle experience and knew she had already lost. "No you don't!" Aiden lurched his hand forward when he saw the space around Purple Rose starting to twist. Bang! The Chains Of Erebus shot towards her however Aiden was still a step too late as his attack ended up smashing against the tiles of the bar."Damnit! she escaped!" he gnashed his teeth in regret. "Maybe if you chase aft
"Oh? you came back so quick? did you manage to.." Gregory's voice trailed off when he saw Aiden enter into the bar with an expressionless face. "I caught up with her. Infact we might be having a new team member pretty soon" Aiden replied as his eyes finally roamed over to Rin. Smirking, he slowly approached him. "Why didn't you run?" he sneered. "Uhm.. I apologize for what happened earlier today. I was kind of nervous and thought you were going to call the LEA on me" Rin lied through his teeth.Aiden nodded slowly before glancing around the bar. Thanks to the scuffle they had with Purple Rose, the whole place was currently in a mess. Aiden figured the LEA Enforcers would begin storming the place anytime soon. "I have a lot of things to discuss with you. However this isn't the right place " Aiden said slowly.... "Hm?" Raya had just snuck into Aiden's bedroom and was about to solidify her misty form when she suddenly noticed there was a foreign party in the room. "Huh?" Mari
"Are you really not going to give me the bite?" Gregory whined for the upteenth time as the lightning wings behind him flapped, causing him to remain airborne as he streaked through the air. Besides him was Aiden who also had a pair of lightning wings flapping furiously from behind him. "No" Aiden replied flatly as they flew past a street light which was barely luminating the dark street they had just flew past. Above them, the night skies was still young with tiny glittering stars hanging above. "C'mon stop being stingy. If I become a Red One, then that means my combat strength will increase, thus increasing our chances of survival when we go against the Red Sharks" Gregory stated in a convincing manner. "We're partners after all" he further added. "You are strong just the way you are. Just your arcane mastery alone is capable of giving many people headache " Aiden replied bluntly. "Not to mention being a Red One isn't something glorious or amazing as you think it is. Trust
Dong! Dong! Dong! The once rowdy hall of the Battle Rambo instantly became quiet, in the wake of the loud beating of the gong. The once dimly lit atmosphere became engulfed in darkness. Pudong. Pudong. Pudong. The loud drumming of hearts was the only thing that could be heard in the darkness. However strangely enough, these rapidly drumming hearts wasn't happening due to fear, but an infectious kind of excitement and anticipation. "Helllooo everybody!!!!" Just then, a loud voice boomed, followed by the release of a spotlight that shone on a rapidly descending flat surface. Standing atop the floating board was a middle aged man clad in black trench coat while wearing a pair of skeletal hand gloves. His whole face was ridden with thick tattoos, giving him an hideous facial appearance. However when the attendees witnessed his entrance, they exploded into a loud fit of applause. If not for the fact that the Battle Rambo building was surrounded by a noise silencing Runic matrix, th
"Nice one brat. It would seem you are not as weak as I had thought you were. However, that would only make things more interesting" although Metal Buster tried appearing unfazed, he was inwardly stunned. That was because when he had punched Aiden, if felt like his fist didn't collide against flesh but a thick wall of steel, causing his knuckles to hurt a bit. "Tch" Aiden merely clicked his tongue at the other party's boastful exterior. "Accept mine then" lightly tapping his feet on the ground, Aiden dashed forward like a phantom. Before Metal Buster could react to his speed, Aiden right fist had already appeared a little inches away from his chin. Bang! A body flew back like a missle as Metal Buster crashed roughly against the edge of the combat ring, cutting a sorry figure The whole crowd went silent. Metal Buster was an infamous name in the Battle Rambo House. Although he wasn't their top fighter, he was a powerful champion who was known for crushing the skulls of his oppon
"And that's Blood Kid thirty seventh kill!! he's a total demon!" Mr. Tattoo face screamed with much fevor as Aiden ripped off the head of his latest opponent, which just happened to be a female. Currently, Aiden was a stark difference to the Aiden from two hours ago. His hair was now completely blood red, stained with the blood of his fallen opponents, the same went for his eyes and arms. Although many couldn't see it, his eyes had now taken a shade of demonic pitch black, like a deep void. Once the crowd saw the headless corpse fall to the ground, they burst into loud cheers. For the past one hour and half, Aiden had been in over thirty seven fights. And in all these fights, he had always ended up being the victor while brutally killing all his opponents. Thanks to his winning streak and brutal killing method, he instantly became a fan favorite of the crowd. Apart from the savage way he fought, many of them had ended up striking gold thanks to the winning bets they had, all t
