Chapter 455 - Clash of Groups Groups vs Groups (1/2)

BANG!

Tommy managed to escape at the nick of time. He felt grateful that Shiro trained them to evade his deadly shooting not long ago. If not for that demonic doctor, he wouldn't be able to escape right now.

”What competition?” Kanae asked.

”OH, a woman?” the man looked towards Kanae in amazement. Because Kanae shouted, her pitch revealed the fact that she was a woman.

”Don't act dumb, competition of the vial of course,” the man smirked. ”Get them, especially that woman.”

As he said that, several of the men charged forward. In terms of number, it was clear that they were outnumbered. This group has a lot of people in their group, earning them more power overall.

CLANG!

Kanae blocked the attack. Frowning slightly, she noticed that another one already ready to thrust his knife towards her. They were human! However, right now, her body moved on their own, twisting it to evade the attack and pierced her own sword into one of the men's neck.

Pulling it back, she turned around and made a slashing movement, reaching two men's stomach instantly.

”Rei!” Jason was startled to see that most of them already headed towards the girl. Killing the one going towards him, he was about to help her when he saw that three of them already fell to the ground.

”…” was there any need for him to worry so much?

However, he saw that Kanae was looking towards him. Her eyes were filled with doubts and uncertainty. They were not monsters but human. They have their own lives and people who might be waiting for them, but right now, she was killing them. She cut the chance for them to meet with their family again.

Why this thought made her feel sad very much?

The leader's face was stricken with fear when he saw that three of his men were killed by the young lady. Stomping on the ground, he moved towards the young girl, making a thrust with his sword.

Kanae saw him coming, she tilted her sword to the outside and blocked the attack.

”You dare!” the man roared.

Seeing the anger in his face, Kanae's body shook a bit. This was the first time she faced someone who fought her because they wanted to have a revenge for their comrade. The complicated feeling rose within her heart.

SLASH!

The man didn't wait and immediately attacked again. Kanae reacted too late and her arm was wounded with the sudden attack. Stepping back, she quickly readied her stance again.

'When I come here, I already make a vow to myself that I won't let my feeling disturb the fight.'

She knew very well that she was still very weak in the terms of emotion. As a girl who has someone she cared very much, she knew the feeling of losing and the rage that followed from that. She didn't want to lose anyone important to her anymore.

Her eyes landed on the man who pounced towards her again.

'If to achieve my goal and become stronger enough to protect them, I have to become a cold blooded killer without feeling, so be it.'

Twisting her body, she attacked the man from below. The man was startled when he saw her back slightly lower. In the next second, he felt pain on his arm as the girl's arm already made a slashing movement, cutting his arm perfectly.

His eyes were filled with horror when he saw that the sword was now aimed to his neck. The next thing he knew was everything has turned dark.

*pant* *pant*

Kanae was looking towards the fallen man on the ground for a moment. Looking towards her hand, she noticed that it was already fully stained with blood. The smell of the blood no longer perturbed her anymore.

Her eyes turned to look towards the other member. Moving her feet, she reached their side in an instant. With a swift movement, they all fell to the ground.

”Amazing,” Tommy whispered as he killed the man in front of him. Kanae practically finished off the men by her own. Her movement that she showed was perfect that he couldn't say anything else.
