It is already evening and Hero is busy consuming all the gems that he had taken on his journey. Simon also did it in his bed. The three decided to share the same room but different beds for safety. Hero was worried that there might be someone who would attack them and it was hard to find each other one by one in a foreign city. After consuming all of the gems, Hero decided to sleep. Placing the useless gems below the bed. Simon also did it but he could not sleep. He was thinking about who is that monster and is curious about him. Even about Valerie that Hero is talking about. Without hesitation, he decided to get up and walk outside to see the monster that they were talking about. He looked around and saw that their hiding place was peaceful. It means the leader really knows how to find a place they could hide. When Simon is finally out of their hiding area, he chooses to bring his dagger and not his rifle. In case of emergency, he could use it to protect himself. He walks and tries
Hero just shuts his mouth and slaps Simon once again. "That slap is for taking yourself in danger. You almost died you dumb shit!" He then stood up and walked away leaving Simon behind. Simon clenches his fist after what Hero has said. He is disgusted by himself. If it weren't for Hero, he would have probably died right now. He shook his head and helped himself stand up and went to their room to sleep. Simon woke up because of Hero and Peitho's voice. He slowly opens his eyes and looks at the siblings arguing about something. When Peitho saw Simon that he is finally awake she immediately ran towards him and choked him. "You dumb! The people here are blaming us now because of you!" "W-wait, what are you talking about!? C-can you stop choking me!" Peitho stops what she did to him and glares at Simon. "What the hell happened?""Do I need to punch and slap you so you can remember what you did last night?" Simon shut up after remembering how he saw the monster close up. His body shivers
All of them had now finished eating their breakfast and they decided to go to where the bodies were hanging from the pole. Sir Pancho was with them in case of emergency. "Are you really sure you want to go there? Members of the two groups will go there for sure. I am afraid for your safety." Hero looked at Sir Pancho while they were walking. "We are fine, Sir Pancho don't worry about us too much. We can handle ourselves." Sir Pancho looked at them with disbelief and shook his head. He thought Hero and Simon were just too arrogant just like the other kids in the City but he was mistaken. They left Peitho alone with Kalvin in the hideout as they had just gone there for a minute. When they have arrived at the area, the people sense them causing them to look at them. One named Edric stared at Hero when he sensed something in him. Edric is one of the awakened people in Paul's group while on his side, Robin is one of the awakened people in Almond's group. "You," Edric speaks as he keeps
They are now at their hideout and both Hero and Simon now preparing for their departure to go to the station that the two men stated. Sir Pancho was looking at them as if he was trying to block their way to go to the station. "I am sorry, sir Pancho but this is for the better. Valerie won't keep you say forever." "I am not here because of that. I am here to stop you as I am worried about your safety. You may have some superpowers just like the others but you can't guarantee that you can get out there alive. Other than that, the two groups will surely stop you from doing it. They have been hypnotized by the message. The monsters are not your only enemy but also the people here in this city, aside from us, Hero." He thought about it but his decision was already decided. Instead of just hanging around with them, it is better to move immediately, or else it will also be over for human existence. He needed to kill them one by one. Hero was about to speak when Peitho was standing in fron
"You are a monster!" All of the people around them look at them when Daniel points to Hero. "He is a monster! His eyes were those of the monsters!" Dani repeatedly speaks as he keeps on pointing his eyes. Hero calmed himself which made his eyes come back to their original form. "Get away from me before I could kill you." All of them started running away followed by Daniel but Aamon just kept on staring at him as he clenched his fist and decided to stand up and walk away from them. He stops again and speaks. "I will make sure to beat you soon, Mr." Hero looks at him until Aamon now finally out of their sight. "Y-you're strong and cool Hero!" Only Kalvin was the one who spoke and cheered for him causing him to shut his mouth. All of them were looking at Hero worried and scared. When Hero looks at them, most of the people in their group move a step backward trying to get away from him. Hero shook his head and left. "B-brother!" Peitho shouted and ran but Simon stopped her. "I need t
The monsters' roaring and creaking voices could be heard. Blood splattered the ground, with intestines and people's heads rolling around as monsters devoured the dead bodies. Hero slid his sword, killing the monsters around him. He continuously kills every monster that attacks him. Everyone was killed, including his sister; their limbs and intestines emerged from within their bodies. It was all his friends. Died at the hands of monsters while attempting to defend themselves and fight against higher-ranked monsters. He jumps backward and lands on top of a bus near the area. A swarm of Bonewraith flying monsters is heading toward him. He dropped his sword and stared at the monsters flying towards him. He kneeled and gasped for air, staring fiercely at the monsters. "I give up," he muttered and closed his eyes, looking down. "I can't fight anymore. I am surrounded. The Queen had already called for backups to protect her and her eggs. How could I be able to fight them alone? Fvck it!" h
Hero immediately bows down and splits to avoid the tentacles attacking him. Peitho ran away and hid beside the room gasping for air when she saw how the monster's tentacles caused damage to their apartment. "Peitho, take my bag and run. Hide at the trash bin first and wait for me there. Don’t ever get out of there until you don’t hear my signal. I will knock five times, do you hear me?" Hero stated as he kept on walking backward taking the dagger from his hips. "But what about you, Brother?" Peitho asks worriedly while taking the heavy bag but still manages to carry it. "Don’t worry about me, worry about yourself. Now go!" Hero yelled and dashed towards the monster preventing it from attacking Peitho by leaning it against the wall. Peitho immediately ran away and followed her brother's order. Hero was pushed away to the hallway giving him a scratch that came from a sharp metal on the ground causing him to moan in pain and let the blood flow through. 'This body isn't used to deep wo
It was already nighttime. Peitho carries his brother to a room that is still completely whole and locks the door. After hearing her brother's scream, she couldn't bear it anymore and immediately ran and climbed up, there she saw her brother lying on the ground bleeding. While assisting her brother, she couldn't believe what she saw when she saw his brother's one hand that was cut but was gradually turning back. It means that his body was regenerating. The wounds in his palm also healed! But the blood was still there. Peitho shook her head and set aside her confusion. She takes a look at the bag that her brother ordered her to carry and looks for something that she could use for her brother's treatment. Hero was sick and had a high fever, his temperature was very high which Peitho was concerned about. "There was no medicine for fever!" she exclaimed and stopped for a while. She remembered they still had one stock left in their room but their room was five rooms away. She knows that i
