70 Killable Rats I (1/2)

Aster could really tell the change in their dedication as they could even react faster to his points of teleportation. They could not guess it but they can quickly issue an attack to wherever he appears next.

Pretty Face is someone who had prior experience in attacking his spot of reappearance, so he was the one to dish out blades that attacked him. The cool gangster is probably the weakest and youngest among the vices but his loyalty towards Rat was not any less than his devoted seniors.

Aster stopped his facade of dodging the cool gangster's weakling attacks that were only equal to the middle levels of the Initiate rank or mote specifically Initiate 6 in which Aster had a considerable advantage against. Pretty Face dished out three blades so he also deflected with three blood blades of his own.

”It is a challenge, then!” Pretty Face somewhat expected his attack and wanted a battle of attrition towards his blade power and Aster's own blades. Before he could throw out another set of sharpened blades, Aster had already disappeared from the spot and reappeared behind him.

It was like mingling into a rat group as the other rats tried to defend against their rat companion. Cinder was quick on his support as the cigar man threw a powered cigarette stick which had traces of mana compared to what he threw earlier.

Aster smiled from sensing the mana-laced attack and disappeared from the spot. He wanted another friendly fire scenario like Alioth and Velnor.

”Stop!” Cinder realized Aster's plan but had nothing much to contribute in trying to cease his attacks towards Pretty Face. His attacks were not basing and controllable by the spirit like Batter's metal balls but a pure throw and kill method like Gunner's bullet.

'My boyfriend!' Ganda was not one to stay idle as he returned with a kick to the ground and propelled himself towards the fast-moving kill stick that could essentially kill his boyfriend if it made contact. He was too late but the willful Tank was there to disrupt the heavy cigar stick with a similarly heavy punch.

The weird attack was as powerful as a peak Initiate ranker's full-powered punch that it completely broke through the crumbling earth wall.

The gay man with pink hair extensions immediately broke his quick propulsion by anchoring his feet on the ground. He glared in complete annoyance towards the fooled cigar smoker while the cigar smoker looked towards the glare with apology and guilt.

”Where is he?!” Pretty Face did not realize his brush at near death as he tried to locate his target. Only when he saw the gaping hole on the earth wall that he knew something fearsome happened behind him.

Their slight interactions such as being distracted by the broken wall, anchoring on the ground; glaring and eyeing one another just went into Aster's advantage as he reappeared on Pretty Face's side and killed the pretty boy with gruesomeness that is characteristic of his kills.

Aster sliced up with a molded blade of blood and defaced Pretty Face. Like a melon sliced in a pretty apparent lopsidedness, his entire face slid down and brains with hollowed skull became his new look in death. A fitting end for the thug that spread his infamy with the use of his looks.

Women who fell for his charms and suffered would have rejoiced if they knew about his end. The gay lover and all the other vice-level members realized what happened and got frenzied due to their carelessness.

'That... is too cruel!' Ganda despaired as he saw his new lover's dead body fall head first towards the floor. The corpse would have face-planted but there was no face to plant at all. In between Pretty Face's feet, was the shocked expression of the cool gangster. It strangely did not fall splashing the floor with blood but it instead melded on the flat surface. It looked like his face was meant to connect to the solid ground in the first place.

”You will pay!” Ganda hid his womanly weakness as he used it to apply vengeance towards the killer. Aster still stood on the spot where he killed and that was where Ganda propelled himself to unleash a blow of devastation that is fuel by his wrath of passion.

”Klotsia tou alogou!” People in Tellus learned a bit of the language of magic and Ganda's attack was literally translated as Kick of the Horse. A spiritual image of a horse could be heard neighing as the gay man delivered a kick filled with horse power.

Aster would have winced and subconsciously teleport away from receiving a surprise hit but this was not surprise hit at all. He anticipated the gay man to be the one to launch at him. To prepare for the attack, Aster went for his own body cultivation and kicked against the horse-like kick.

The two kicks collided as a mana-less kick and a mana-laced kick met at their intersection point. Left leg to left leg connected by the sole of their shoes. The tension was built in the air as gust spread from it.

Aster buckled from being weaker in cultivation and could not help himself but be blown back. He massaged his aching thighs as he sighed in his thoughts. 'That proves it! The Eternal Physique is useless without a healing option for the body.'

His opponents also looked at him in a new light as they had enlightenments flooding their pressured minds. Rat's eyes were especially glimmering with madness as he yelled in delight. ”Fucking fraud! This brat can easily be rendered powerless with greater cultivation levels. Why did I not see this before?”
