Enclas watched from afar the words spoken by Konji striking directly into his heart His legs trembled torn between fear and the urge to rush in and do more than merely observe
Chas narrowed her eyes from nearby Then she noticed
it Konji hand It was trembling slightly Veins bulged grotesquely beneath the skin as if his own power was turning against him
His hand…!!
Chenya who had remained silent until now suddenly widened her eyes in sheer shock Her feet moved before she could think her body lunging forward without hesitation
t that moment Fanet seized her wrist and pulled her hard against the wall His gaze was sharp and serious
Do not go That man is not normal...
If you rush in now you will become the seventh body...
" ..Oh… you actually admit it. I love that.. "
Only one remained a man playing the role of an authority while behaving like a savage The blade at his throat pressed close Konji sword poised to sever it at any moment
The atmosphere surrounding them felt eerily similar to their intertwined fates Everything seemed ready to collapse at once
Inside Konji body, chaos raged like a curse It was something beyond power itself The sly smile that once defined him was gone
replaced by a battered expression as his vision blurred and darkened by the second
Silence fell
The crowd that once filled the streets had vanished hiding behind closed doors in terror
child peeked down from above frightened yet unable to resist curiosity Apart from them only a handful of figures remained in the alley
Everything was swallowed by stillness
young man stared down from above Afraid yet desperate to understand what was happening below
Hey… hey…
hey!! No way That guy is really top tier?..
"Then why does he look so worn down?"
Enclas muttered under his breath clutching the spherical device in his hand staring ahead in disbelief
The group posing as authorities known also as Klophos or perhaps better described as savages began to gather in overwhelming numbers. Some searched for traces others ran wildly through the streets
Soon a massive force advanced toward the scene each holding a firearm
Konji blade rested against Kaman neck yet it trembled slightly Kaman noticed
In such a dire situation, he should have drawn his gun
But he did not move Konji mind wavered
From afar Enclas tightened his grip on the sphere It resembled either a pinnacle of advanced technology or a sealed supernatural force
Suddenly it vibrated violently, nearly slipping from his hand Letters appeared on its surface
Target detected within a fifty meter radius in all directions The voice faded
sensation like lightning surged through Enclas body as streams of data flooded his mind
t the same time Chas caught a strange reflection from a distant rooftop Just a flash but enough
Her expression changed
That was not ordinary light
It was a signal
Enclas feet scraped violently against the ground as he burst into a narrow alley running without hesitation
He sprinted through scattered trash as if his life hung by a thread The speed was not skill but instinct An instinct screaming at him to run Faster
Konji and Kaman remained frozen tension crushing the air Death hovered within reach
A single exchanged glance conveyed everything
Kaman lowered his gun slightly aiming for Konji abdomen At the same moment Konji sword hovered at Kaman throat ready to strike.
Yet he did not move
Their eyes locked both standing at the edge of annihilation emotions beyond words swirling between them
Footsteps thundered Hundreds Like an unstoppable army
The shadows they cast no longer looked human More like puppets devoid of will driven solely by ambition
Enclas clutched the sphere and whispered urgently
Slowly release the electricity Do you understand?...
His gaze darted wildly before landing on a large pool of water nearby
sly confident smile replaced his despair.
He tensed every muscle in his body
Water began to move
The sphere floated free assisting him It could not move much on its own but it helped without hesitation
With a deafening crash water surged across the ground
Those charging forward slipped and fell their formation collapsing
Enclas grabbed the sphere again
"Do not let ordinary people get hurt. No matter what."
He ran back toward Konji The sphere rolled toward the enemy group
One of the Klophos noticed and froze
"A bomb!!"
Blue electric energy erupted from the sphere racing across the wet ground like a lightning serpent
Those trapped in the water were electrocuted instantly, collapsing in agony Only a few managed to escape
The sphere floated back to Enclas
Above, on a rooftop Kaberik appeared
young man clad in a perfectly tailored black uniform a blood red stripe lining the collar reflecting the lights with chilling elegance
From above he watched Konji and Kaman
Slowly he raised a weapon resembling a rocket launcher and aimed it directly at his own ally below
Konji looked up unfazed
confident smile touched his lips His cold razor sharp eyes radiated challenge
Below Chas saw the reflection on the barrel
Her instincts screamedThe trigger was pulled
The explosion roared
Before anyone could react a terrifying roar erupted from Chas herself
pink shadow burst forth from her body petals swirling as if she were no longer alone
spiritresembling another version of her lunged into the path of the fatal projectile
The explosion shook the air smoke engulfing everything
Chas real body was hurled violently into a wall Fanet caught her just in time
"Chas!!"
Chenya screamed She rushed forward without hesitation Fanet checked Chas pulse Her chest Her breath
What… what is she?..
Smoke lingeredKaman escaped amid the chaos
Konji rushed forward then froze
Seeing Chas unconscious before him the world seemed to stop
Moments later she slowly opened her eyes coughing through the dust Her vision cleared Shock returned
You were amazing Thank you...
Konji smiled proudly clapping sincerely
Then Enclas arrived stopping a short distance away
He stared at Konji eyes trembling
Not like the others
As if he saw something deeper
Something hidden within
