Chapter 19: Who's the Cat and Rat Now?
"Look I will not have to repeat myself again. Why did you not inform me of how to kill these things?" Justin muttered coldly as he stared at both Myia and Zakar.
Sera stood at the other side of the hall. There were other teams present already and it did bother her.
"Are you deaf or what?!!" Justin exclaimed in pure rage. Myia shivered and looked at Zakar. For a moment he was confused.
"I did it." Myia mumbled. Zakar's eyes widened in shock. He didn't expect her to take up for his actions. That was ridiculous. Was she afraid of him dying in his hands?
"Why?!!" Justin said as he clenched his fists tighter. Myia stared at him for a moment probably thinking out an excuse.
"Because—"
"Because I did it. I have no remorse." Zakar said cutting her off. Myia's eyes followed to stare at him.
"What?" she exclaimed.
"Don't you know when to shut up? Yah, I told you about bravery but there is a limit to that." Myia argued. Zakar smirked.
"You're afraid of him I see." he said and chuckled.
"..."
"Not a good thing I agree. I think I'm too bold. But I can't help myself. So Justin what makes you angry?" Zakar said and turned to stare at Justin in the eyes.
".. what? You're seriously asking me that?"
"As I presumed. You are angry at your failure to think out our way. You are pissed off about your failure and most of all the success of your hated one. Well that is understandable but only if you keep it to yourself." Zakar said and began to walk towards him.
Justin stared at him in shock. He wondered how he had come to do confident.
'He is filled with so much confidence. Wonder why? What gives him the confidence that I can't kill him? After all he is just a D rank. But something tells me he is still dangerous. I can't tell how but..' his train of thinking broke when he noticed that the other teams were watching.
"What the..." Justin muttered and turned back to Zakar.
'I can't afford to be disgraced by this brat in front of these teams. If they survived this fast then they should have high ranks in their team. I can't be disgraced by a..'
"..damn fool!!!" Justin exclaimed and grabbed his sword.
Then he exploded into a fierce speed. Myia stared at him in shock.
"..."
[ System Back!!!]
[Level Up!!]
[New Skill attained: Camouflage Stealth]
'Interesting. To return with a reward for me?'
"Just so I'm clear. Do you want to kill me?" Zakar said calmly but his words fell on deaf ears.
Justin dived into him and his sword slashed through his cheek. Air breezed in as he passed away.
Zakar touched his cheek and noticed that it was bleeding profusely. A smile tugged on his lips as he tilted his head to stare at Justin.
'What the... How did I miss his neck? It was like an invisible force hit my line of targetion away. What the hell is this?' Justin thought to himself.
"Zakar!! Are you okay?!" Myia exclaimed and rushed towards him but Justin turned his head towards her.
"Sorry to say but it seems like your voice pisses me off." Justin said and his eyes glowed in dark rays of energy.
"..."
"Now I will just have to reduce my Team members to two then." Justin said and summoned flames from his left hand.
"You can't! General Lemon would punish you. You will be killed!" Myia exclaimed as tears rolled down her eyes.
"Nah. I won't be punished. This whole place is just a set up to screen out the weak. If you think General Lemon would save you then I think you should better give a better obstacle. From the time he killed that player like a toy that showed that he doesn't care about the weak. So I'm free yo kill you." Justin said and tightened his grip on his sword.
"Shall we?" he asked in a mocking voice.
'All this seems more like a puppet show than I wanted. But still I can't have her whining over the death of Zakar when I do so. I will just kill her.'
He shot a ball of flames at her and smoke accumulated in the area. His left hand steamed heat as he took the shot. Sera's eyes widened in shock and horror as she stared at the huge steam.
"..."
The steam cleared away and no one could be seen at the spot where Justin had fired the shot.
"What the..." Justin muttered in shock. Then his eyes shifted behind him and it widened.
"You got to be kidding me." he muttered in shock. Behind him was Myia standing at the corner of his eyes.
"How did you..." Justin muttered in shock. Myia stared at him in shock and her eyes tilted to where Zakar was standing, only a faint breeze was blowing in place of him.
"Enough of that. I think we have had enough of that." Zakar said and his eyes sparked with precision as he walked towards him.
"And who are you to stop me? Nothing but a damn ass hole!!" Justin exclaimed and waved his left fingers and an energy of flames formed up in the air.
Zakar dived in fast enough and closed the gap between them. He breezed in like an unnoticed assassin.
"What the..."
"It would be best if you don't try that." Zakar whispered into his ears. Justin's eyes widened in horror.
'That smell... It feels like... it feels like he has some sort of aura.. I can't place my hands on it.' Justin muttered to himself as he stared at Zakar's dark eyes.
"Thanks for co operating with me. I appreciate." Zakar muttered to him. Justin stared at him in shock.
"Uhmm..." Justin muttered.
BLAST!!!!!
