——There was a woman clad in light, a body glowing silver as she stood before them.

Amidst his recovery, Magi could only look at the blood that was slowly, and disgustingly flowing back into his body.

He wondered if it was Teresa's ability at first but knowing nothing about it, all he could do was watch and guess.

“What is this...?”

Magi stood up as his body felt pristine. His exhaustion was gone nor his coldness and all he could feel was the sudden hunger.

“I turned your satiety into health. Thanks to my other ability, Focused Improvement, I improved your recovery and doubled up that aspect.”

“———”

The words that came out of her mouth were somehow something he couldn't understand.

Maybe it was because he was still confused and couldn't comprehend what happened, but the important thing was he was saved by her.

“Thank you. You saved my l——”

“Geez. Just don't. It doesn't suit you.”

Before Magi could even finish speaking and bowing, Teresa would wave her hand and lift his shoulders, t

    “——So, how did it go?”“Oh! Err... it went well, but they didn't forfeit the tournament.”“If they didn't, then it didn't go well.”Passing by a white glow in a crowd of a fancy party, a man with a stylish look had bowed before another. It was Asa who shapeshifted into such a handsome man, and in front of her was a man with a grim expression. The man before her looked pale and had a darkish tone below his eyes, his green iris stared right through her face, intimidating even her supposedly carefree self.“What did you do then? I told you that if you failed, cause a major distraction?”The pale man was holding a glass of wine as the glitter of whisky rises to its surface, smelling it before taking a sip. “We couldn't. It's just that the Red Trackers were already there. I had to beat a girl just to provoke one of them and damn, one of them was powerful. Like what was that?! It felt like the sun was right beside me——!”“Cian Magicroft, huh? It seems like the information in our networks

    ——Two hours before the party, the fire and ice came together to a plan. “Michael invited us to another of his parties. Last year, we didn't attend this. We had no reason to give ourselves away to the enemies.”Throwing an envelope to the large table, Kira would show everyone the letter.It was sealed with red wax, along with the seal that had the symbol of the moon. A seal native only to the Hudsons. “So, it's a party of gathering information about the enemies, guessing that they are capable of? If they truly have someone that can read minds, being there alone risks the advantages of your abilities not being revealed.”Vincent would address the letter's intent. Although it was a polite invitation to a get-together, it was a place where their enemies can get even with information. It was at least something they had an advantage of and risking that wouldn't be a good idea.Vincent was finally healed from being bedridden after recovering his mana for the past few days with the help of

    “——You insolent fools! Why have you killed him?!”With the sound of shattering glass hitting their bodies, Asa and Louis would stand there as they were splashed with wine. The glass would shatter right at their feet as Dokuji threw it with as much force as he could, making them flinch ever so slightly.They were in a room, close to only them. It was not too far from the party, but it was secured enough not to let anyone hear or see anything inside.“I-I didn't expect him to die that easily——”“——If I pulled the trigger, do you think I will expect you to survive?”As Louis tried to explain for himself, Dokuji's quick draw poked a pistol into his head, cocking it the second it was out. Both of them had their heads lowered, but Louis had a gun against his head.Dokuji's voice was calm, yet aggressive. An unchanging tone yet intimidating for them. He was emitting the very essence of alpha in the pack. He was undeniable of any truth he sought from them.“...N-No.”“——BANG!”“——?!”Dokuj

    “Damn it. For someone as rowdy as her, she gets drunk easily.”Shoving her into the back of the car, Vincent would have Saeko take the keys from Kira's pocket. Kira was almost out cold as she flops down to the seats at the back, helped up by Saeko. Vincent would close the door on them and walk up to the front of the car, however, there would be a group of men, dressed in black that would pass them by. It took Vincent's attention as they were all dressed somehow conspicuous. They had digitalizers on their waist on the way to the party, and they were not your common digitalizers in Moonblight. They had that notable design that would only come from Newyark. “———?!”Vincent would quickly get inside the car, raising the windows in a hurry. “What's wrong?”Saeko would ask, but Vincent's eyes stayed on the group that suddenly stopped just at a turn towards the entrance of the building where the party was being held.It was a bad feeling. He could feel his magic reacting to it.“I don'

    ——Shortly after the party ended, people have gone home after the closing toast. Nothing significant happened other than Kurumi having connections with Ruriko and Mia, but this was only because they had something in common, unrelated to any of their professions. However, each of them had thought of it otherwise.Cian was unable to leave a good impression on the girls after being taken out by Mia in one punch. He didn't remember much at that time, but it was apparent that his restraint on words came off after he became drunk, something he decided to avoid.“So, what happened?”“A-Are you not gonna explain what that is?”As Cian and the others arrive back at the training room where Magi had decided to start his Unique Magic Acquisition, there was a large piece of machinery that towered up to the ceiling.It was a spherical machine that had a small room inside, where the wites outside were somehow encircled around each other in an organized way at the ground.Magi's casual asking about

    “Wait. Living together? We don't know her. She's——”“——Our only choice. Regardless, she wanted to lend a hand.”He swung his hand and pointed at Ruriko with vigor. He was suspicious of her at the surface level, but as the situation calls it, his emotions were running wild.Ruriko might have been a named celebrity in Moonblighr but that doesn't change the fact that she might be someone that might be their enemy. “You don't have to worry about anything. Besides, you can't hide anything from me. From your brother's death to your origin. People from above know everything about everyone.”Dipping her finger into the tea, Ruriko would bring out her tongue to taste, looking at Cian with a seductive gaze. She was teasing him by acting like this, like a manipulative person, which Cian hated the most. “———”Ruriko knew about the rumors of Magi's death being false. But Cian just had to keep up his act. “W-What do you mean? You——”“If it's information about you, we are not that easy to fool.”

    “A Game Master is someone who hands out missions and stuff. It's something someone like you would understand the most, right? A person who hands out the mission and or quests to receive certain rewards.”Still and unmoving, Ruriko stood there with her chin held high. Kurumi was just as shocked as Cian at this instance, but somehow she had a feeling that Ruriko was waiting for something like this. “...”Can didn't retort nor ask anything. He indeed knew the implications of her words. Despite calling herself that, her way of delivering those words made Cian think of her as an important NPC. They were the ones that would give the players the main missions. A mission that would reap a lot of rewards if finished. “——Does that mean... everything is a game for those people above?”Kurumi herself would ask that. She'd already caught into the fray so she might as well know about those who sent her. “Hmm. Not exactly. They want to associate it with such so that it is competitive, and elimi

    Chapter 161 "Go back to Newyark after this is done, huh? I suppose I'm being treated like a Deux Ex Machina."Whispering above the roofs of the building, Magi kept himself hidden from the eyes of those who were below him. The Brainless were everywhere as few of them survived, moving towards the office as a battle ensued right outside it, wrecking the place open.However, in his position, he could also see Cian, trapped in a barrier with Mia. It looked like it was because of their technology, however, that wasn't something that they would normally do. "An evil man like me cannot be the hero of this day."Cian fired his pistol, his bullet breaking the barrier instantly before Cian could attempt to stab himself with his bare hands. Cian was startled at first as Magi observed him, but his eyes immediately went in his direction, looking up with a look of gratitude. Even after all this, Cian was still nonchalant with his actions. He still cannot believe that they were twins in blood.T

    Chapter 160: "Watch out!"Barely keeping up with Dokuji's speed, Sumire and the others couldn't get closer to force him into a close combat battle as they tried to dodge his attacks.His ranged attacks were too powerful for them to normally dodge as each slash would alter the terrain and create such a large breeze."I can't use my Blood Shackles on him. If anything else, I could use it if he was his normal size!"As Michael stood behind Kalina and Saeko, he was being protected by the ladies.It was far-fetched for a man like him to be useless right now, but he had to admit that he can't do the physical feats they can do right now. As he is now, he'll be a burden if he tried to help them."Tsk. We gotta close the gap somehow. Two people aren't enough to stop him."Sumire's assessment of the situation was right as all of them nodded in agreement. Sumire, Saeko, and Kalina might be able to stop him even by a moment if they worked together, however, that meant leaving Michael to his o

If we spend too much time here, we'll lure the other Brainless in!"As they looked around, their battle was beginning to attract the other Brainleas that survived their battles, gathering up near them as they slowly walked up them.Their men had been slowly wiped out by the others. However."Boss!"As a voice called them from below, three surging arrows would whistle out as it splits the wind, hitting the other Brainless right into their eyes as they fall, defeated with one arrow each. Their heads were impaled through the eye. This was but an easy fit for someone capable of contr

    "R-Red?!"Before her, was the almost disgusting sight of Red whose body was half rotten. On his back, there was a tube that seemed to be suctioning something out of his neck, delivering it to a machine that seemed to produce material on a tube.It was a purple substance that dripped down into a tube that glowed, and as far as Kurumi knew about it, this could be the substance that that Brainless runs with as their blood. "Kekeke... You aren't supposed to be here...""—?!"From behind, a voice suddenly spoke, laughing silently as he lurked within the dark corner of the basement.His eyes glowed green and each of his steps sounded metallic as it stomped into the concrete floor.Kurumi had her guard up, her magic flowing in the environment as she was ready to cast magic."Sniff... Sniff... That's a sweet smell. Do you mind if I...?"Just as the crazed man stepped out of the shadows, he began to suck in air with his mouth, and just as he did, Kurumi felt like her magic was being sucked i

Rather, his image was already gone when the whole attack began. As the mayor of this city, he shouldn't have let those criminals fool him in the first place."Tch. Mayor! Go ahead, I'll have my team take care of this! You are to assist the Boss!"The leader of the mercenary group would wield their Grants, taking on the three Brainless with his other companions. He pointed in the direction where the red light originated, urging him to rush."Alright!"Michael nodded in response, following through with their suggestions.Their group of twenty became reduced as similar encounters would happen, leaving Michael with the last three mercenaries that

    "Heh. What's wrong? You're making a sad face when you're winning. Are you pitying me?!"Looking at the skies, Violet stood there with a sad expression. Her expression kept quiet for a moment as if grieving someone."Oi! Face me when I'm talking to you—"Unsheathing her blade, Violet had already taken two steps past her. It was all too fast. Violet was just a few meters in front of Asa earlier, but now, she was walking past her, stopping before long.But only then she realized that something happened as Violet sheathed her blade away."GUAAAAAGH!"Her right arm fell off, rolling down as a lifeless limb. No blood came out, but only immense pain came with it as she saw the organic parts that were the inner parts of her limb. "You won't die even if I cut your limbs. This blade severs the limb but prevents the blood from going out of the wound. It was a blade for surgical operations, yet perhaps, for Gods."Asa rolled on the ground as she held her severed arm, crying out as it turned

    "That's everyone.""Yep—. Pretty much."Dusting away his hands, Vincent would respond to Kira as they wiped the floor with the enemies. With Kira using her abilities more proficiently with range, Vincent didn't have to constantly teleport in and out, treating Kira as some kind of explosive whenever she attacks. "Let's go."After all that, they entered the backdoor, and just as they thought that things were going smoothly, the corridor was blocked by Sentient Guards."Oh no," Vincent muttered.There were five of them and with both Kira and Vincent blacklisted, they all fired on sight.With less than enough space to dodge, Vincent quickly held Kira by the shoulder and blinked past them."Run!"Both of them ran deeper into the corridor and took a turn, hoping that it would be the way to the office.The Sentient Guards dashed to follow them, but as soon as they took the turn as well, the two were already out of sight, proceeding to clear the corridors."..."Vincent and Kira were able t

    The Fool Who Dares To Wield The Blade

    Chapter 154 "You're not going out alive."Standing before Cian, Violet, and Mia was Asa Narasu. She was the only remaining enemy and with her absorbing the blood of the Brainlesses as her weapons, she might as well be the final boss of this fight. "That's stupidly overpowered!"Cian muttered to himself observing Asa wield that kind of power.The blood around her flossed and encircled her in a sphere and if any of them were to be caught in it, their powers would be disabled. "Oh? That's troublesome. I might have to put this one away."Although, as Narash had the Blood Shackles on, the flames that were enveloping her hands and the Gravity Magic that made her afloat became weaker, seemingly reacting to the Blood Shackles' ability to disrupt magic itself. They all knew that it was an ability that made a mage a normal person if they made contact with it, however, seeing Asa have trouble using it with other abilities meant that it wasn't built to be along with another.It made Cian thi

    The Final Boss?

    "Hup...!"Jumping out of a portal, Magi would end up on another roof again, avoiding confrontation with the others as he helped them from a distance. He was able to get an array of weapons from the helicopter before it exploded such as a pistol and an automatic firearm which was a type he never had used before. He knew weak weapons like this wouldn't work against wouldn't work on Brainless, but he had something that most of the people in the fight don't have. He had deadeye accuracy, and when it comes to the Brainless's weakness, it was the eyes.There was one problem, however. "This is troublesome..."As he aimed down on the surface, there was still a thick cloud of smoke coming out of almost everywhere. He could barely see Cian as he had his back against a building, facing three Brainless that were running after him. Considering the air and the distance, Magi estimated that the bullet would travel less than a second and hit the Brainless, but if he misses, the distance between
