Chapter 44: Harmful.



Chapter 44: Harmful.

\'\'You alright?\'\' Eyrim asked Slych who finished his trip in the Medical Bay.

Slych nodded. \'\'I am alright.\'\'

His body was still filled with wounds, especially the wound from Ichiro\'s Iron Lance, it is a wound that won\'t be healed completely and it will affect his performance in the tournament.

Eyrim could see through him and was very surprised that Slych got injured that much in the fight.

He was more than aware of the talent Slych possesses.

And even when he was in Middle School, he wasn\'t near Slych strength and he was still only 14 years old.

He still has a lot of time to grow.

This tournament was supposed to be an easy one, join the tournament and win.

Taryn was the only one who could challenge Armya, but even though their Captain was Peak Martial Leader - He was still not even close to Slych\'s strength.

Ichiro\'s strength was Middle Martial Leader, which was given.

But his experience was way above his age, which let him take advantage of Slych\'s inexperience.

And his Iron Lance… That attack was as strong as an ordinary attack from Martial Captain.

Which shouldn\'t be possible for him to do!

Slych saw Eyrim\'s face, he only wryly smiled and sat down in his chair.

The last match of the Round of 16 was about to finish.

…But he didn\'t really care about it, since his opponent has been already decided.

Quarterfinals, Semi-Finals, and Finals won\'t be decided by lottery.

Instead, the lottery for Round of 16 was the last one.

Armya was the winner of Match 4.

Which means they will be fighting against the winner of Match 5.

And the winner of that Match was…

Ramu.

Slych recently visited Medical Bay and saw the condition of Ichiro.

He was slightly displeased because he was injured in the fight.

But seeing the state of Ichiro, only a worry remained, because Ichiro\'s body needs a lot of time to heal.

But he still almost won, because the attack strength was way above than he has shown before.

Most of the punches and kicks only stung.

But the Iron Lance attack…

If Ichiro\'s ordinary attack would be 10 Points in strength.

Then Iron Lance was 150 Points.

At least 15 times stronger, but that was only estimation because he was busy trying to defend against that monster of an attack.

Slych grabbed something from his pocket and took it out to take a look.

It is a phone number for Enforcement Department in the Military.

He was shocked to see Mars approach him in the Medical Bay.

He noticed our pretending, but it was a given.

After a Middle School… You have the choice to go into ordinary High School which Slych planned at first.

But this invitation changed his mind.

The Enforcement Department has its own school.

They have their own High School division.

But not Middle School, because you need to be at least 16 to join the Enforcement Department.

The Enforcement Department is one of the strongest High Schools, always getting top 8 in the High School tournaments.

But the High School Division of Enforcement Department is only there to groom the new generation of Fallen.

Fallen - This is the Top Squad of the Enforcement Department, it is the squad that does the most difficult missions.

Mars apparently was a Director of Enforcement Department.

Which makes him a Captain of the Fallen.

But he is only a Director of the Enforcement Department belonging to Gensa.

Every country has its own Enforcement Department.

But all Department works for the same agency.

Arya\'s Defensive Forces.

Their Martial Arts rank determines your Military Rank.

Mars is Martial King which makes him 7 Star Crown.

Martial Emperor is 8 Star Throne.

Martial Monarch is 9 Star Kingdom.

Martial Saint is 10 Star Paragon.

Martial Demi-God is 11 Star Angel.

Martial God is 12 Star Overlord.

Martial Half-Divinity is 13 Star Sovereign…

Slych was very interested in joining the Enforcement Department.

It is an honorary position and everyone from there is treated with the utmost respect.

Mars has hidden his identity, no one knows his identity here currently, except Quella, otherwise, the Ramu\'s Higher-ups would be shaking in their boots right now.

He and other Enforcement Department Directors in their own countries usually send someone to take a closer look at the participants in the tournament, who might be fitting for their ranks.

Mars only found two…

Ichiro and Slych.

Usually, Director never goes by themselves,

Mars told him his name Mars, but he only told his surname towards Ichiro and Slych.

Because his surname is very famous in the Gensa.

But not many know Mars\' appearance, which made it easy for him to get the Quest Commentator job.

And it\'s public knowledge that the Abyss - The Humanity\'s Hope used to be in Enforcement Department.

He is still in the Military and he holds the highest Military Power as 13 Star Sovereign.

But he isn\'t in Enforcement Department anymore.

He is in World\'s United Beast Extermination Department.

It is a Department where their main goal is to fight against the Mutated Beasts and Exterminate them.

Their main base is located on the Island of Death.

Slych tightly held at the card and put it carefully in his pocket.

He still has a lot of time to think about it closely.

The final match of the Round of 16 was over.

Slych stood up and said. \'\'I am going back to the hotel.\'\'

Others nodded, they still had things to do in the stadium.

Slych started making his way over out of the stadium.

Ramu\'s Higher-ups noticed it and with a vicious grin, they dialed a number on their phones and said something.

Slych felt their gazes on him, but he only shrugged it off, not finding it suspicious because he has felt multiple times gazes on him.

He exited the stadium and saw the night darkening, the lights illuminating the beautiful city.

He saw the Hotel some distance away, standing majestically in the center of the city.

He started walking with his hands on pocket.

His body was still exhausted and injured.

Each step was painful and Slych considered calling a taxi.

He stopped walking, he was standing on the sidewalks.

He took a phone from his pocket and dialed a taxi number.

The taxi would arrive in 5 minutes.

Slych leaned on the wall of the building and kept standing with a chilly wind blowing his long black hair.

The people who passed him were muttering while some pointing at him.

Obviously recognizing him.

But they have enough sense not to disturb him.

…But then Slych felt danger approaching.

…He felt Death.

He quickly leaped towards the right and the spot he was standing previously exploded in pieces.

Slych started feeling slight fear, that attack was way beyond Martial Leader.

He landed on the ground and looked with narrowed eyes towards the one who attacked him.

From the cloud of dust, a man with a red mask with a sickening smile painted on the mask stood.

\'\'…Who?\'\' Slych thought anxiously.

\'\'Oh, you survive, as expected from the Great Genius of Gensa.\'\' The masked man said with a cruel tone.

The civilians around the streets started running like headless chickens while some called the police.

But the Masked Man ignored them all, he knows that he can end Slych\'s life in a second.

\'\'Why did you attack me?!\'\' Slych asked, his back was covered in a cold sweat.

\'\'I am here to kill you, Kekeke.\'\' Masked Man chuckled and disappeared from his spot.

Slych widened his eyes, he didn\'t even have time to react until he felt a strong hand grabbing him from his neck.

Masked Man appeared in front of him and lift Slych off from the ground while holding his neck.

\'\'Gughh!\'\' Slych groaned in pain while his face was turning purple.

\'\'Ahhh, I love that face - I have killed many prodigies in my life - And they all have the same face when they die… The face of despair.\'\' Masked Man grinned under the mask and started grabbing Slych harder.

[Tomahawk Piercer!]

Slych gritted his teeth and unleashed his kick which hit the Masked Man in the chest.

But Masked Man didn\'t even flinch. \'\'That tickles.\'\' he chuckled.

\'\'Well~ Goodbye!\'\' Masked Man grinned and with his left arm, he punched towards Slych\'s heart.

Slych could only watch in horror as the hand which will kill him approached his body.

\'I am sorry Emilia… I wanted to see your reward…\' Slych closed his eyes with tears coming out of his eyes.

Slych could feel the hand pierce his body slowly…

…Until it stopped suddenly… It went few inches through his body until it stopped.

\'\'URG!\'\' Slych heard the Masked Man groan in pain.

He opened his eyes drowsily and saw an incredible sight.

He saw Mars stopping Masked Man\'s strike with a simple grab of the wrist.

\'\'WHO?!\'\' Masked Man roared in pain, Mars scoffed and slapped at the Masked Man which made his mask break and he was sent flying through the air.

Slych fell down to the ground, he touched his neck which was in pain.

\'\'You alright?\'\' Mars asked him.

Slych nodded weakly.

Mars crouched and touched his neck.

\'\'Heal!\'\' Mars\' hand turned green which healed Slych\'s bruised neck and his wounded body.

Slych felt warmth and soon after he fell asleep.

Mars turned his head and saw the attacker trying to run away, but suddenly Mars disappeared from his spot.

The Masked Man who had his mask broken tried to run away in hurry, but then he saw Mars appear in front of him.

\'\'Fuck!\'\' The Masked Man cursed, his real face had a very nastry scar, it looked like half of his face got burnt.

\'\'…Who hired you, tell me the truth and I won\'t kill you,\'\' Mars said calmly.

\'\'Fuck you!\'\' The Masked Man cursed, he attacked with a vicious punch.

Mars scoffed and his hand turned black, he grabbed the fist of the Masked Man, which soon turned into ashes

\'\'ARGHHHHHHHHHH!\'\' The Masked Man roared in agony.

\'\'I gave you a choice,\'\' Mars said and he grabbed the Masked Man from his neck with his black-colored arm.

[Harmful Death!]

The Masked Man\'s whole body started having black lines which crushed his every bone, every organ, every blood cell… Making him wail in anguish until he finally died when his heart stopped.

The Masked Man\'s body turned into ashes, which were blown into the wind.
