Chapter 45: Gravity Manipulation. (1/2)

The three stopped when they reached the ground floor, staring at the figure in the entrance. It was the old man from before. A bald, gray-bearded man wearing a black suit and white gloves.

”Stand behind me, that guy's the one who manages this place.” Said the purple haired girl as she placed her hand ahead.

”Why do you run, young lady? I promise you no harm will be done to you if you come with me. Your father has personally requested from one of the refugees that I take you there. Don't you wish to be reuinited-”

Aurora's cold eyes glowed as she emitted an unconscious cry of bloodlust as she said, ”Don't call that man my father.”.

Freya and Violet became increasingly confused after witnessing this interaction.

'Have they met before?'

”What's going on? This is a hospital! Why are you destroying everything?”

The receptionist had suddenly approached and touched the manager's shoulder

”Did you not hear me? I asked-”

In a flash, the receptionist burst towards the ground. His head smashed into the ground and cracked open, causing his brain to spill out.

Crash!* *Splatter*

”Do not touch me, Filth.”

After their eyes froze open, Freya dropped to her knees, not being able to grasp what had just happened. She asked with trembling lips.

”What...?”

”Ah, right... You must be Realm's younger sister. That sneaky rat has escaped my palm again... Maybe I should punish you a little to remind him of his place...?” He asked.

”A-A-Ah…” Freya was speechless, her eyes teary as words failed to escape her mouth from fear.

As soon as Aurora and Violet saw this, they immediately stepped in front of Freya and defended her. ”Don't worry. He's not going to hurt you.

This resulted in him taking a step forward as a result. The ground beneath his feet cracked as the pressure in the room changed once more.

Almost as though an overload of weight had fallen on their shoulders, the two were struggled stay on their feet.

[Gravity Manipulation]

Another step was taken by the man, while this time the Gravity increased again. Violet was also struggling to keep herself up due to the use of telekenesis on her body, while Aurora, who was still in recovery, was forced to hang onto a pillar of ice she had created.

[Telekenesis!]

[Ice lance!]

With her telekinetic abilities, Violet attempted to pick him up and chuck him out, but no matter how hard she tried, he refused to move. It felt as if she was trying to lift a large boulder way past her weight limit.

Violet launched nearby desks and chairs at the man, while Aurora launched a lance made of ice right at him.

Their hearts sank, however, when their projectiles crashed into the ground beneath, not even making it two meters from him.

Violet concluded, ”He must have the ability to manipulate gravity... What an unfair match up....”.

Her eyes glancing at Aurora before she suggested. ”I'll try something… After that, we make a run for it to the other exit…”

Despite Aurora's nod, Freya was still trembling on the floor, paralyzed from fear. She couldn't speak up. Aurora snatched her hand as she prepared to run with her on the signal.

As Violet stretched out her arms, the window behind her shattered. The shards of glass were propelled at the man, but crashed into the ground before they could get close.

That was all just a diversion.

Violet's arms trembled as she thrust them downward.

*Creak* *Crack*

As if an earthquake were approaching, the room began to tremble. With an unamused look, the man looked up, only to watch part of the ceiling suddenly collapse on him.

”Now! Run-”
