Chapter 261: Bloody endeavors [3]
A distant memory of the past seemingly resurfaces from the memories of a long-forgotten time
"Move god damn it! Are you seriously this weak? What the hell have your parents been feeding you? Oi, why aren’t you guys laughing? Isn’t this funny?" False smiles and laughter were invoked and beneath his footing lies an unbreakable will
’God damn it!’
The weak and timid boy couldn’t do anything but clench his fist in frustration and deep below lies his longing. A wish he could only seek to attain in his dreams and even if he did only problems and a never-ending self-loathing. Why was he weak? Why should he have to suffer? He asked himself whilst only being capable of clenching his fist, gritting his teeth, and hiding his glare. Why exactly was the world against someone like him?
’Oh god... I don’t care what religion you’re from, or even if you don’t have a name, I just wish for a chance... I won’t ask for power for that has a price of its own, just grant me a place. Where death is accepted, revenge is common, and a place where I can unload my sentiments...’
After he cries for help in the heavens or the hell below his face is trampled by Pike’s kick where it broke his nose. "What are ya smirking for huh? Do you think this doesn’t hurt at all? Oh ho ho ho ho, looks like you you’ve gotten so cheeky. How we amp up your punishment you lowly pig!"
After that day his treatment grew worse and later on he bought what remained of his money for some makeup. The bruises he attained were hidden and his sprains were kept sealed but day after day his desire remains. He sometimes dreams of gaining his wish and the two are sentenced to a life in hell. For the sins maybe is the one who tramples over others and the one who never lived truthfully

Present day
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!" Lawrence bombarded him with blow after blow but he dodged every one of his attacks
Lawrence lunges his foot and Morris lowers his posture and below he swings his knives. A streak was impaired beneath Pike’s leg although it was shallow he could see a drizzle of blood. The thing that appeared present in his body wasn’t fear, it was joy paired with insanity
[System: The boss of the 50th floor health finally reaches below 75%. Its secondary phase has now awakened and some stats have been increased. The ability rupture has been awakened, attacks will now gain aftershock]
"Get over here!!!" Pike shattered the ground and with the effects of aftershock an area near his attack began to shake
’Shit!’
(What’s wrong...?)
Morris quickly fled and hid in the smoke he waited and slowly strode to not leak any bit of information about his spot. "It’ll be a hassle fighting him now... it feels like those angelic fuckers are reading my mind. The skill I hoped he wouldn’t have appeared just when I was about to overpower him,"
(Is that so...?)
’Think about it, will ya, they wouldn’t want me to continue... they must have been wary of me after I single-handedly killed that rapist. Aftershocks make it harder for me to just dodge when everything will shake at a later time. If I try to force it I might break a bone or two and worse the chances of me dying are up there,’
(How much?)
"Eighty-nine percent..."
(What about the odds if you perfectly outmaneuver yourself even within the range of Aftershock?)
"I could say about seventy-five percent,"
(How so...?)
’My bones are barely hanging... got a freaking sprain and the painkillers hardly have any effect. I can feel my muscles aching but nowhere near their limits. Going forth and attacking head-on will be problematic. There’s no way I could conserve my stamina when I need to dodge his strikes along with Aftershock,’
(As you deduced it would be unwise to continue this fray... but let me ask you a question, is my master willing? From what I can tell you’re the one who’s more willing to undergo this path. Is it finally the time to ask for her assistance in the matter?)
Diabolus manifested his transceiver to safeguard it in case things get physical in his endeavor. He didn’t resist and his hand reached and called for the aid of his only teammate in this place. The moment he linked with the radio frequency his ears were bombarded and he quickly lowered the sound
|[What have you been doing, you jackass? I was calling you half an hour ago... the preparations are complete! Seeing as it’s quiet, either this is the boss or you’re too lazy to even say a single thing, that’s it... come over here now!]|
"Yes, Mom! Now I remember why the likes of you two became a thing... what a bunch of nagging turds–"
|[What was that now!!?]
"Oh nothing it must have been the wind" He quickly turned off his transceiver before he could hear her cussing in her native tongue
(Shall we go now?)
"Peek-a-boo!" A bright red glare behind them slowly grew visible until his face was but a hair closer to his gaze
A loud tremor unfolded in his spot and he escaped by a hair close to being crushed within Pike’s grasp. "I reckoned it wasn’t all that... after undergoing your second phase it kinda makes sense. You look more like a monster than a human, not like you were to begin with–"
The divider which was the smoke keeping these two going on a full-on scuffle could hardly suppress this towering beast. After entering his second phase Lawrence Pike grew ears as large as his head, arms stretching further than before and legs built to lunge. His skin turned red, horns popped up from his noggin, and everything else degraded till he turned into a freak of nature
(Damn it! The exits are blocked... to think that Aftershock ruined our only route to escape. And from the looks of it, he can’t be easily avoided... those nostrils of his are similar in terms of that mutt in your party. Along with those ears)
"So he’s Kyo Min-soo on steroids," His upper body bent till it reached below his waist, and avoided a powerful jab
’Another one?’
After the force of his attack made contact with the rubble a tremor appeared and he lost his footing altogether. "Pwehehehehe... so long sucker,"
Pike’s fist was reaching its destination and that was to demolish Morris’s feeble chest out of existence. "Guess I have no choice,"
[System: The player Christoper Morris has activated a blessing [True sight]: Whilst active the player unlocks a series of optical abilities]
"Force nullification reverse palm..." Instead of another tremor a powerful surge of energy backfired knocking Pike offbound
"Fuck... this hurts like a bitch. I heard the penalty of activating the blessing on the boss floor is reduced... but can you even call it that? It’s just a measly ten percent," His vision grew white yet as a second passed it gradually formed miniature spots of bloody red
(That technique... but how? You don’t even have that technique to begin with. Plus I heard you’d require tons of training just so you could perform this attack)
’Force nullification just allows you to redirect the flow of one’s attack... but to do so one requires eyes that could track down said energy. My eyes may have reverted but my soul retains the blessings I gained along my perilous journey. Plus martial arts apart from their special attack can be performed without the usage of chi and exerting stamina,’
(What the??? You’ve just dealt a massive blow with that reverse palm? But how...)
He smirks and says. "Isn’t it obvious redirecting the flow of energy is considered to be an attack from yours truly? Since it underwent a drastic change in its course the pathways which over-exert itself met a violent reaction. Because of that, I manage to apply an attack that defies physical and magical resistance, or what we call true damage,"
(I’m seeing signs of internal bleeding within your eye socket slowly moving through your eyes)
"Oh yes, it fucking hurts!!!"

Imperial Capital
Whilst their battle has finally reached its middling point the outside world could hardly wait for his return. Dozens of guards protecting his cell not to say countless warriors recruited in keeping this devil at bay. On the contrary, the presence of these individuals was more important than they ever thought. Fangs belonging to a pair of leopards disguised as people drooled over their delightful scent
"Food! We hadn’t eaten in a while... and since the owner’s presence was nearly undetected not a hint of mana was found. But now it’s time to feast! Don’t you agree Amaris? Even you can’t resist..."
Shin knew what they implied but after she aided them in escaping she was against the idea of setting them free. "Are you insane? Didn’t you say you don’t want to get caught? We can do that later– Ooof"
She falls to the ground after Amaris appears before her causing her to lose her balance. "I thought Lady Morgan had briefed you earlier on our mission? Before the main troop arrives we need to open the gates and to do that is to kill them all and eat while we’re at it. This is the first time I’ll agree with a baffoon but I do need to replenish my energy,"
The two faced Morgan she sighed and yet allowed their unreasonable demands but the price of leaving no one behind. "... fine, you can have an appetizer, but remember what Father said... kill them all! Never let a single one alive!"
