Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 89: Prodigy

Shreya and Sonali were down yet, conscious but overly fatigued. Nagendra was the only one who was in a good state and then there was this blonde woman. Probably his girlfriend or maybe not? And then there were six more soldiers there. They were the reinforcement it seems.

"First, let me see how he was grown."

Nix muttered and left Zariniel on the ground.

[Path - ✦BLADELESS HEART]

(Description: Bladeless heart- It is a technique that's perceived by the user to use hand-to-hand combat techniques instead of using blades. A technique that was straightly derived from the 'Thousand hands technique'.)

[✪Ethereal switch✪- Bladeless heart (Phase-4)]

(Description: Ethereal switch is the switch that triggers the VF and shifts the user's potential to the peak.)

'Reached level three within a year... And a Path? Perceiving a technique? Ethereal switch... Prodigies are indeed monsters. I was suffering to learn a few techniques while this guy grew at a monstrous rate...'

Just while Nix was in his thoughts a soldier began talking in a loud voice.

"Mr.Black mask, Drop your weapons and surrender. And as a favor, you will have a painless death."

Nix couldn't help but laugh at him.

"Haha, Don't you feel stupid? I killed every one of them in the mansion and drew the angel to a corner. I made multiple messes and from where do you get the confidence, Mr. Ashok?"

As he bluffed. The soldier named Ashok's pupils dilated and was frightened. Nix was indeed evolving at a monstrous rate.

And it's right! He used the truth eye to discern his information. Though he made a bluff it was threatening enough to make the man fear his hidden potential. Won't someone feel kinda insecure when they invade our privacy? When you don't even know your opponent's name while he does. How would you feel?

"You! Who are you?"

"The Black revolutionary..."

Nix said non enthusiastically. At that moment nothing came to his mind, so he just decided to say it on a whim. And his naming sense was truly terrible but at the same time, it was quite alright.

"sHriik! shrikk!"

Suddenly a few arrows sped towards him. He twirled his chain and released the blazing typhoon and restrained the arrows in mere seconds and made the others go blank for a second.

Nagendra didn't think it was Nix and the cause was his physical change. In the past he was a lean average guy but, now it was different. But there was a small intuition in him that tingled him that it was Nix judging from his hair color yet, he couldn't truly believe it was him.

"Mr.Black revolutionary, could you drop your weapon and surrender?" Nagendra asked calmly, staring with his cold eyes.

"Nah, Nagendra just move out. I am leaving."

Nix said indifferently and walked towards the exit slowly while dragging Zariniel by her hair.

"Stop! this is your final warning!"

The woman with wavy blonde hair and busty body yelled. She possessed pretty blue eyes and milky white skin and lean body and long legs. She was in armor and skirt and there was a whip tied to her waist and sword in her back plus two daggers attached to her leg pouches. Probably an all-rounder like Nix.

"Yo, Blonde I'll leave quietly to pave the way. I have to take two people along with me."

Nix said and grabbed Reegan and placed him on his shoulder.

"How dare you!"

The blonde woman scowled and pushed her leg from the ground.

"HAh, Shit..."

He utterly killed everyone inside the mansion. Meaning he successfully killed everyone and cleared the mission but, the things that were about to happen next were the things harder than the mission itself. So, the mission was yet to be completed.

He dropped Reegan and left Zariniel and clutched his dagger and took a stance activating prediction vision.

In an instant, he restrained her and placed his dagger on her neck, and made Nagendra go agitated.

Nagendra wore two metal knuckles and then unsheathed the long sword from his back.

"Leave her alone you bastard!"

"Man, I don't want to confront you... Isn't she someone dear to you? If you take even a single step towards me. I'll slit her throat."

"Stop! Everybody stop! Pave way for him!"

He showed and began to pave the way. Over the corner was an old run-down carriage with which the soldiers of Ferandel entered.

"Move as I say..."

Nix said and slowly approached the carriage.

"Swishhh!"

In a split second, an arrow flew towards him, and the one that shot it was the overly fatigued Shreya.

Yes, Indeed, She was a talented archer as such her arrow accurately sped towards him with great force. Swiftly the blonde woman took the chance to attack him with her elbow to his face and broke his part of the mask. He could dodge one attack at a time but both of them went in the same time which made prediction vision useless at that point. Doom prediction is a good ability but, handling what he sees is truly hard. He needs to achieve super reflexes in order to be that powerful.

"Fuck!"

Nix cursed as his mask cracked open and showed half of his face.

Nagendra, Shreya, and Sonali went dumbstruck noticing his face. No matter how much he'd have changed physically one's face wouldn't automatically change to an unnoticeable rate.

"Nix?"

All three of them said at the same time though Nagendra was the one that asked it first.

"Yeah dude, I am..."

Nix asked with a smirk.

"Why? Why did you become like this?"

Nagendra asked while giving a cold stare.

"Why won't I? Man, just move already I don't wanna fight you guys..."Nix said and walked towards the carriage again.

"I can't man..." Nagendra said and clenched his fist ready to fight with his knuckles.

"Homie this ain't what we should do. Circumstances led us to this... You better move out." Nix said and gripped his dagger.

All the others just quietly watched the scene without understanding except for Sonali, Shreya, and Reegan.

"Well, fuck it!"

Nix said and rushed towards them.

[Class ability: Berserk Havoc activated]

His stats were already superior to those inside the estate as such he was extremely agile and would be quite impossible to rival. For now in the least.

He slowly began swinging his chains and moved while using doom prediction vision and almost killed every one of them except Nagendra and his three companions.

Nagendra pushed his leg and began fighting Nix. Just as Nix went for his head he swiftly dodged it by a crouch and shot up again with a reflexive uppercut making Nix step back.

Nix made a mistake and that was an underestimation of Nagendra's abilities. He thought Nagendra would only use his hands to fight but instead, he pulled his sword.

"Man, I am sorry but you are going down."

Nagendra declared and used sword energy making his sword glow white.

{Ohh? Light attribute! Use me you ignorant brat!}

Astaroth said.

Would you say no to someone who is willing to help? you'd take the opportunity, right? So that's what Nix did. His dagger began to engulf the darkness around it.

{Do you see this?This is my attribute? If you kill those mongrels using me. I'll help you with this.}

"Ain't this advertisement for selling me your garbage attribute? You could scam people with your talk in my world.... But, well I was just joking..."

Nix said jokingly to Astaroth and began to brandish the dagger.

His cuts and slashes were too fast to keep up and too brutal to handle and made Nagendra fall back.

[Ethereal switch- Bladeless heart activated]

At that moment Nagendra dropped his sword and took a stance emanating a grey fog around his body and immense pressure.

'I didn't want him to use that shit... I wonder how it'd work?'

While Nix thought that Nagendra began to flourish his fast techniques on him. His hands perfectly slid through Nix's moves. He began attacking from every gap that was possible. It was truly a terrific technique as it made Nix go awe-struck. Nagendra's body was draped with certain energy around it.

"What is this? why did he suddenly feel more powerful than before?"

{Haha, Never heard of VF? VF is the one that lets you achieve sword energy.}

"I see..."

Thanks to berserk he was able to keep up with him. The others who witnessed the fight were extremely tensed by the immense influence of the battle between them. It was truly appalling for Nagendra to handle Nix yet, there he was fighting toe to toe and stood the ground even though he was terribly tired.

"That's really Nix?"

Shreya asked worriedly towards Sonali.

"Yeah, It's Nix..."

The reply came from Reegan who was a distance away from them with a smirk.

Reegan shot up from his place and took the carriage by kicking the krigons.

"KRIIK!"

They squealed and pushed their legs from the ground. The others in the vicinity began shooting arrows directing towards him.

"Buddy hop in!"

Suddenly a man wearing a dark cloak entered the ground wearing a grey mask similar to what Nix wore with a carriage.

"You may leave!"

The man yelled and jumped off his carriage.

"Who the hell are you?"

The man just said one word.

"Requiem!"

Nix couldn't fathom what was happening yet, he understood that guy is a reinforcement from requiem and more probably the mole that gave detailed information. Everything was a mess yet he had the upper hand but, everything will shatter. He may have the upper hand but, one can't just fight almost fifteen to twenty people continuously plus he was overly fatigued. If he was at his top condition he'd have wholly destroyed them but, unfortunately, he wasn't.

'I ain't takin' a shit. You may be one of my old comrades but that doesn't mean I am going easy on y'all'

He rushed towards Nagendra's blonde girlfriend and broke her leg by using a forceful kick on her leg.

Making Nagendra go frustrated and enraged. Moreover, Nix drifted his attention towards him and began to attack him with more speed while simultaneously swinging his chain. No matter what Nix's stats were high. He may lack techniques but, that doesn't mean he was weak. As a guy went through multiple life or death situations it was just a meager fight for him.

He inflicted wounds and pushed him to the ground. Making Nagendra go limp.

"Man, I apologize but, I hope we won't fight each other again..."

Nix said in a cold tone and walked towards Zariniel and dropped inside the carriage plus he picked up a bag in which he had Benjamin's head.

'Hah, Fuck! Why did he become like this? We started at the same time...Then why is he so stronger than us?'

Nagendra couldn't help but stare at him feeling frustrated and weak. It won't be a lie to call him an exceptionally skilled warrior but, at that moment the cheater beat the prodigy.

"Nix stop! Stop it!"

Nix wanted to at least pay a bit of respect for the dead and show a bit of responsibility. So he brought Benjamin's head with him to bequeath it to Angeline. She'd at least want to see his face to pay the last rites to grieve his death.

The grey masked man began attacking others while Nix and Reegan left with the carriage.

"Buddy? Are you for real? Why'd you take an angel with you?"

"Hah, I just wanted to show an angel how miserable it is to live as a powerless outlaw. I'll send her back to tell the tale later on and I have to interrogate her."

"I mean... why would you vent your anger on her? Just because you are angry at that one angel in Ranrak?"

"Hah, man can you just drive? I am fucking tired right now."

"Buddy, this is bad..."

"Yeah? So?" Nix asked.

"Hah, it's nothing..."

"Good to hear."

Just as Nix calmed down. A voice struck his ear.

"Nix stop! Why are you doing this?"

It was a yell from a woman behind their carriage. As Nix turned back he found Shreya racing towards his carriage with her's.

"Seriously?"

Nix mumbled.
