[SHADOW ABILITY HAS BEEN ADDED TO YOUR ABILITY PANEL]Ajax glanced at the screen in front of him in contemplation. While examining the screen, it changed to a whole new one.[SHADOW ABILITIES][SHADOW ARMOUR EQUIP (LVL 1) ][LOCKED][LOCKED][LOCKED][LOCKED]Ajax examined the screen with his fingers on his chin. 'Locked?' Ajax mused, noticing only one ability was available and the rest were greyed out.'So I will have to unlock the rest?' Ajax lamented with looks of disappointment as his eyes were glued to the screen in front of him.'Come to think of it, what does it mean by shadow armor?' Ajax pondered, trying to figure out what it meant because there was no description of any kind in front of it."Hey, Hart, check this out!" Cataclyst called out from the front while bending down and analyzing the ground."Coming!" Ajax responded, dismissing the screen and swiftly making his way towards Cataclyst to see just what he was on about."You see this? These are ruins of the Void creatures
(NOTE FROM EMMANUEL FEANY: HI, GUYS, I JUST WANT TO INFORM YOU ALL THAT THE MUTANT SYSTEM MIGHT END AFTER THE DEATH PENALTY ARC WHICH MIGHT LAST FOR 20-30 MORE CHAPTERS.

Cataclyst moved closer to the wall, while Ajax remained in place.Standing directly in front of the door, Cataclyst placed his palm on it and rubbed the dust off to get a clearer view of the wordings."It's been centuries since I last saw these," Cataclyst remarked, mo
The Penalty Game, a game commonly used to fish out the weak ones. The is like a tradition used in the Red Domain whenever they want to elect a new leader, or find someone stronger to fill a role. But in this case, the Penalty game is being used to find out who has the old mutant power dwelling inside of him.How does the game works?The players gets taken to a certain area in the city where a veil shall be lowered around that area. The veil is to prevent anyone who stepped in to come out, while people can come in.Even a random individual can get stuck in the game, and once he steps into the barrier, he is automatically among the player.How is the winner chosen?Each payer gets transported into different areas in the barrier, and they will move around, seeking for someone to slay. If someone kills a single person, he gets 10 percent. And if someone with 100 percent gets killed by someone else, his whole percent would get transfered to his killer.Players are allowed to share their po
Ajax knelt down there on the floor, unable to move his body at all. The sudden remove in strength will require few minutes before he can freely move his body again.'Darn it.' Ajax pondered with his two fists clenched. He was nothing more than the weak human he was months ago. He was back to the Ajax Hart that got bullied by everyone.What worried him the most was the location he currently was.He was now in the Penalty Game.A game where high level Souljackers would be roaming about looking for who to slaughter to get percents. If he should encounter a Souljacker in his current state, then there is doubt, he will surely die.'This damn system. Out of all the time you could abandon me, it had to be now?' Ajax cursed internally.The system did said there wasn't a specific time for the reset to be complete, meaning it could take hours, days, weeks, and probably months.'Come to think of it, why did i get seperated from that two? If they were to be here, they might have just been able to
"Well what do you know?" Shurugerugere spoke, a smirk evident on his rugged face as he advanced forward slowly with his partner beside him, while Ajax moved backwards.'You have got to be kidding me!' Ajax pondered, his gaze fixed on the two individuals that had just arrived in his location. 'How the hell am i suppose to fight them with all my ability gone?' Ajax mused, his heart beat racing in both fear and anger.The two people infront of him were definitely Souljackers, and just by their looks and weapons, they looked strong. If he should go up against them in his current state, he would surely die.But what choice does he have? He was on the top of a sky scraper, and the only exit was blocked by the two souljackers. He definitely has no other choice than to fight."Are you one of those people that got sold in here for tokens?" Shurugerugere spoke, glancing at Ajax from head to toe while moving forward. "Because you look extremely weak and i wonder who would possibly suspect you fo
Ajax stood there in a fighting stance. He had already tried running, but that didn't work out so well, so the only option left was to fight.The duo were high-graded Souljackers, and he was a mere human. Even if he knew he was going to lose, he needed to give it his all at least."For how long would I keep running away like a coward?!" Ajax intoned, his two fists clenched as the duo were now in striking distance.Without wasting any time, Zona stabbed her spear forward towards Ajax. The strike was quite fast and impressive, and in the last second, Ajax managed to swerve his body sideways, dodging the spear by a hair's length.After successfully dodging the spear and was about to catch his breath, he caught a glimpse of Shurugerugere swinging one of his small knives towards him.Unable to react on time, Ajax lifted up his right arm to block the attack. Upon making contact, the knife dug into his arm and was stuck there, causing blood to be drawn."Argh!" Ajax grunted in pain as he leap
"SHADOW DOMINANCE!"Ajax called out in an audible tone while making a fighting stance.Hearing the word of the other, Shurugerugere's face became sour as he recognized those words.'Don't tell me he's a Mutant of that level?' Shurugerugere pondered, gulping down saliva as black thick shadow began to form around the vast empty hall like a veil.'I was a fool. He wasn't running away earlier. He only lured us in here so he could expand the shadow dominance.' Shurugerugere began to curse himself internally for falling into Ajax's trap.The shadow veil kept forming until it finally sealed them inside a vast round black bubble."Hey, damn bastard! Where did your confidence go?" Ajax mocked with a smirk, while Shurugerugere stood there with a tensed expression as he pondered on what to do.'I can already feel my body becoming weak, meaning all my strength and abilities have been halved the moment he expanded the shadow dominance.' Shurugerugere contemplated, cold sweat trickling down his fac
Sending out the blades, Shurugerugere's aim wasn't to hurt Ajax with it, but to create a distraction. While Ajax was busy forming a shadow barrier to block the blades, Shurugerugere seized the opportunity by charging forward.'Gotcha!' Shurugerugere smirked after finding an opening, and he sent out a clean punch towards Ajax's open head.The punch moved at lightning speed, and just when the punch was about to make impact, a shadow helmet formed on Ajax's head.BAM!The punch connected, but no impact was made due to the shadow helmet Ajax equiped in the last second.Shururugerugere felt like he had just punched against a solid mountain, and his fist seem to have been shattered upon making himpact.After successfully blocking the punch, Ajax swung out his shadow blade towards Shurugerugere who was still trying to recover from his broken fist.'What was i thinking?...' Shurugerugere lamented, lifting up his three small blades to block the incoming sword.CLANG!Both weapons clashed again
