129 The Warning (1/2)

”Heh, say goodnight kid.”The leader jumps to Faust in one leap, he holds the sword in such a way that the sharp side of the blade is facing outside of his hold and he swings the knife in front of the neck of Faust to slit his head open.

”Huh?” The knife is on the skin of Faust, but it did not cut or go through. The leader is surprised at why his knife did not get through.

”A cheap illusion I would say.” Faust is sounding abnormal than now. His voice is not calm or arrogant as it is till now. He sounds like a crazy guy.

Faust holds the tip of the blade with his fingertips before it digs into his skin. He turns his face towards the leader who is on his right. The eyes of the leader widen. The right eye of Faust is all red with green pupil.

He stopped the knife with his left hand and his right hand is holding the case. Faust goes for a strike with the case onto the stomach of the leader. He swings the case from backwards, The leader pushes his body back and swiftly tries to move away from Faust.

”What?” The leader cannot move back, Faust held his right wrist tightly, the same hand that he tried to attack with a knife. He got himself caught and unable to go away from Faust.

*”How is a kid, so strong.”* He thinks for himself while anticipating where the next attack comes from.

Faust again swings the case to his front from the side, targeting the abdomen of the leader. Realizing he cannot go back, the leader pushes his gut back and bends his chest forward to avoid the strike.

As the case came closer to his abdomen, the case instantly disappeared and the right hand of Faust travels upwards fast and grips the neck of the leader.

*”It's a feint.”* The leader played into the hands of Faust.

Faust is suffocating the neck of the man without mercy, as he is not able to talk anymore, an electric structure is broken with a cloud of black smoke coming from the neck of the leader.

”Huh?” A computer frame to protect your neck? Lame.” Faust grunts out and grips his neck tightly again.

”Ahh” He screams, but his voice is different than before. So the frame is a voice changer? Faust thought.

Faust is suspicious and wanted to see who is behind the mask. He reaches for the mask and pulls it down. For is frozen for a moment, it is Melissa from the shop he just visited.

His grip on her wrist loosens, Melissa finds the opening that Faust gave her, while he in shock, she flips the knife towards Faust in her hand and goes to ram the knife in his eye.

Instantly, Faust blocks the knife by landing a hit on the forearm of Melissa with the lower side of his hand, with the soft part between the wrist and fingers. Blocking her hand from stabbing him, he swings his right hand back as he slaps her on her cheeks with the back of his hand.

His knuckles dig inside her cheeks, causing her unbearable pain, he then swings the same hand to his front and slaps her again on the other side of her face.

The slap paralyzes Melissa with a shock. Half of her face is numb while she keeps hearing a bell ringing constantly in her head.

To end this fight, Faust takes a step towards her, clenches his fists tightly and lands a powerful uppercut. Only the knuckle bone on his middle finger makes direct contact with her chin. Her chin clamped with her upper set of teeth, it sent a jolt to her brain and she immediately rolls her eyes up and falls on the ground lifeless.
