"It seems like you came back sooner."

Greeting them warmly, Sumire spoke. They looked down at Violet and Sabrine as they arrived with the army of sentries.

"It must have been hard to go around the city without being noticed, not to mention with an army."

"Not particularly. All we needed was to go through the sewerage." Violet responded as one sentry stepped up, seemingly wet.

Sumire's eyes scrunched, seemingly disgusted upon hearing that. However, she would disregard that as she sighed.

"Anyways, welcome to our base in Moonblight. It's not as big as the one at the Outskirts, but this is where we base ourselves in Moonblight. I'll have your other sentries... go somewhere."

"..."

With the rest of the sentries following another personnel, they were led to another place.

Despite Sumire's humility, before them was an oval-like building that looked like an industrial organization's office. It was in District B, where most of the organized company buildings resided.

"How did you even get t

    "I see. Alright. That's fine. It's fine..."Lowering the phone slowly, Kira sighed after the phone call. She would do it again as she turned to look into the window."What did Teresa say?"Saeko asked Kira after that call, seeing as how the conversation went, it seems like it was not good."She said that Cian is nowhere to be found nor Sabrine and Violet. They completely separated themselves from us."Kira lowered her head, holding her face with her two hands.She felt disappointed and frustrated at the same time, losing someone who was just as talented was a waste, not to mention that they were friends.She had thought that Magi had trusted her when he began to open up to her, but it seems like he hasn't opened up completely to her after all."Tsk. What am I doing wrong here?" She asked herself."You did nothing wrong, Kira. It's just that those two needs to deal with their problems. But I wish that they didn't have to involve us in it. Now, look at us."Vincent scoffed, his arms cro

    An hour earlier, before the Pandemonium's siege on Red Trackers."What do you know...?"With his face leaning against the bars of the small window of the door, Magi glared at the two convicts that fell on their rear, both visibly scared by his actions."W-Wait. Don't you wanna get out first?!" "G-Geul. I think he's asking about something else..."As the two convicts spoke, they slowly began to realize what Magi meant by those words."Hal, I think he's asking about Toru. He's already dead, isn't he?"Geul, the taller convict looked at Magi, able to guess that Toru was dead even despite being locked up in there. It was enough evidence that they can know about news from the outside despite this being a maximum security prison.It meant that they know something about this place, and possibly, about Pandemonium."This is not about him. Tell me what you know about Pandemonium."Cutting straight to the chase, Magi didn't mince his words and asked. As soon as he mentioned Pandemonium though

    "That's everything we know.""... That's more than enough."Back in the underground prison, Geul sat back down on the ground with Hal as the bell rang. It was time for all the convicts to go back to their cells. "Hey! You there! Go back to your cells now!"The guard then walked into them and aimed what seems to be a specialized rifle Grant, ready to fire at anyone who disobeys them.It was already enough that the people inside the prison were equipped with undetachable collars that disable their abilities. It would also explode if there were any attempts to take it off, blowing away the head of anyone wearing it."Y-Yes."Hal and Geul only followed suit as they took a step away from Magi's secluded cell, walking back to the main corridor as took a glance at Magi.The guard that chased that away took interest in why those two would go near the secluded cell when it had a sign that the prisoner is deemed dangerous.At the window of the door, there were blood stains on the bars.

    Two days have passed since then, Kira and the others had been forced to go back to their own respective homes, abandoning the headquarters after they'd been relieved of their authority.Kira had led the resignation of the team as their Grants were confiscated virtually, taken from their digitalizers.There was no need for witnesses, the ones above had directly managed the process as it came.Cian couldn't do anything but watch that day, seeing how they all parted with their Grants.They were now just normal citizens, hoping for the best of their lives."Kira... I'm sorry–"Cian wanted to say sorry as Kira turned to him, however, she would just place her hand on his shoulder, smiling at him. "No. I'm sorry, for dragging you all to this. I made this organization to take revenge but now that revenge itself is taking away what we have left. I'm sure the others must have only wanted us to live our lives fully... not waste it like this."Kira only embraced Cian tightly as she finished spea

    "So? Why are you here, Mr. Mayor?""..."Facing each other, Michael and Teresa had taken a seat at a small circular table as Teresa leaned in, opposite Michael who leaned back.The shop has come to its closing time as the door was now locked. It was almost late at night after all.Kyle, who was standing behind the register had only begun to wipe the glasses and account for the sales for today, however, he couldn't help but eavesdrop."I'll keep it simple and short. Dokuji had betrayed me and now is in full control of the city. Unlike me, he'd do anything to get what he wants. I only wanted to get sole control of this city, but I never intended to harm it."Michael would cross his arms, inevitably clicking his tongue as he remembers Dokuji's betrayal as it was only recent."You do know that I'm one of the people you tried to have killed. I don't see any reason why I would work with you to take back your position. I'd rather say it to the public now."Leaning on the table as if she gest

    It was approximately sixteen years ago. When Michael's father died of an accident, followed by his wife that died due to an unknown disease, he was left to become the mayor of a city he didn't know and to care for a child without knowing how to.Michael was a merchant whose job was to collect artifacts, the same as Rex from before. He would sell them to authorities with the money and legal capabilities to buy them. He had been engaged to Moonblight's mayor since way back due to his financial standing in Moonblight.However, due to some incidents regarding monsters, Michael's caravan was disbanded and he was forced to rest for a few months in Moonblight, where he could finally rest easy from chasing glory.Almost a year after that, Michael's wife conceived a child, named Michael.It was Mia. As soon as almost 13 years went, and Michael's wife didn't seem to recover from her pregnancy. Her body became weak and fragile, barely even able to walk.Mia, who grew up on her mother's side

    Meeting up once more with Mia, Cian somehow found himself with someone he needed to protect. Although his mission was to go forth and confront the Viper's Venom, he couldn't quite get a grasp on what to do. He had no plans regarding it, not any information. He was nothing without his technology.However, as Mia dragged Cian back to Ruriko's former quarters, she had a workshop that would still work.The ownership had been transferred to Mia, and with her leading Cian to it, she would only point at him to go to the bed which was beside the workshop. "H-Hah?!""T-That's not it, idiot! Go sit there! I'm just gonna work on something here.""O-Oh."Starting it off with a small misunderstanding, Cian thought that it was an invitation to bed, completely making him fluster as he tried to take a few steps back.He only followed suit after she explained it, watching her begin to do something from a distance. He wanted to watch, but he also didn't want to bother her. "Aaah. It would be nice i

    "Well, now that you've taken over the city. Our deal is done? It took years but I guess... your plans have worked out, Dokuji-boya.""What a disgusting way of speaking. Of course, as usual, you get what you want, and I get what I want. It's all that matters now."Sitting on the chair that Michael would always be at, Dokuji had stuck his cane beside it, leaving it standing as it slightly penetrated the ground.Shanti, who addressed Dokuji closely as if he was an old man would just giggle, looking at him. "Of course. But, I wonder if you can handle things from now on?"Shanti wondered that as he was about to leave through the door, pausing to wait for his response."Of course. I've planned a way to fail now. No one can stop me now."Swiping across the air, Dokuji would show his profile status, named as the Mayor of the Moonblight. Right now, he was the one who was sitting on the desk of the supposed mayor of the city, and with Dokuji's authority conflicting with Michael's, the system

    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

    Chapter 157 "Just where the heck are they all coming from?!"Amidst their travel towards the red light, Michael and his mercenary companions encountered yet another group of Brainless.They've been seeing almost countless numbers of Brainless inside the city, and if they were to be released and known to the public, his image was good as gone. 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
