Capítulo 57: Auction Trouble [P2]
Walking down the staircase, Allen knocked out the people in black cloaks, they were all extremely trained in their agility and strength, it was a remarkable sight as they slashed and slashed, hoping to win the battle.
However, the bruises and cuts they made didn't seem to affect Allen's condition in any way, he was bleeding from his head down to his legs but he made his way down the long staircases with a cold, impassive face.
Soon, he made his way to the bottom floor where a whole group seemed to have been aware of his presence and ambushed him the moment his feet touched the floor.
"Move and you die." A man said, holding a sharp knife by Allen's throat, roughly pressing against it.
Allen took control of the blade and moved it away from his neck, sparking fire in his hands and exploding it into the man's face, their positions reversed while Allen held his dagger against the man neck, cutting into it deeply, disabling the man's vocal cord.
"He-" the man gasped out before the blade sunk deep into his neck.
The other men lunged at him immediately after they decided in a spilt moment to abandon their member who was being used as a hostage.
Allen dropped the dead hostage and side stepped and jumped over the staircase rail to avoid the incoming slash of a long sharp blade that could've ended him in a second.
While jumping, he quickly looked behind and as fast as he could, trying to count the remaining amount of people. However, before he could finish his counting, an icicle pierced through his calf.
Allen dropped to the floor, he cursed and looked at his injured leg that was now spilling a pool of blood. The men closed in on him, holding their swords up as a guard but let it down when they concluded that the small boy couldn't fight through that serious wound.
"I lost." Allen said quietly to himself, slightly taken aback. He slowly inspecting the situation around him as he looked at his injured leg. '7 people.' he counted.
"Are you an idiot, kid?" a guy in a different designed cloak said, he seemed to have been the leader of the group as he stood high and mighty with eyes that glimmer with hostility.
"Maybe I seriously am." Allen said with a smile small, placing his hand over his calf and healed it in an instant.
"Though for a kid.." the men said, looking up at the staircase with littered unconscious bodies. "You are pretty strong. My boss always said to recruit strong people, if you want to live.." the men pointed his sharp blade right below Allen's chin.
"Then join us." the men offered, raising his eyebrows and placing his other hand out to stop the objection of his members.
"I may be a little out of my mind, but I'm not that desperate." Allen admitted standing up with his two legs, his red eyes glowing with intense bloodlust that made the men stop in their tracks.
All frozen to their spots they forced their head to look at each other, with one thought in mind.
'How is a child exerting such a monstrous aura?'
That was their last thought before Allen finished them swiftly, leaving dead bodies behind him.
Limping to a large heavy gold door, Allen attempted to open it but it was undeniably locked. He let out a curse and took out his dagger, stabbing it into the lock, hoping to break it.
"Who dares to interrupt me?" a voice inside thundered in a threatening tone.
"I've killed your comrades." Allen stated, gripping his dagger tighter while slowly lighting up fire in his other hand.
"A kid? don't joke with me." the man snickered, looking at his comrades and demanding them to open the door.
The moment they opened it, Allen slashed at them with a extremely fast speed, locating his next target, he dashed at the man who stood on the stage with a unimpressed expression on his face.
Allen closed in on the men and they both clashed, he backed off when he decided that he would lose in a battle of strength.
"Strong brat.." the men remarked, touching a small mark Allen had left on his face. "I've gotta add you to my collection." he said, licking his lips, fixating on the red eyed child that gave off an incredible presence.
Allen took another step back to regain his stability and to inspect the leader. "My friend, where is he?" he asked,trying to gain insight of the situation.
The men eyebrows furrowed and laughed, "that's what you are worried about?" he asked. "If you're talking about a kid around your age.. he's crushed." the man provoked, pointing to a unconscious beaten up Calix who was bleeding.
Allen looked down at Calix from the stage, he glanced around and everyone was unconscious and in bad condition. "So you get off by beating up people?" he murmured.
"I rather be referred to us Bernard child." the person offered, picking up his sword and dashing at Allen, clearly losing his patience for the conversation to carry on.
Allen lifted up his blade but was far too late, he was slammed into a pillar by a huge claymore. He coughed out blood as he held his stomach. "I've lost my patience too." he stated, looking up.
They both locked eyes as Bernard allowed Allen to regain his stance. "Get ready for a blast kid." the man warned, his hands crackling with fire and electricity.
Allen pointed his finger at the man and in an instant, the match was decided. A familiar red crimson fire bursted into flames and hit Bernard in the arm.
"That's all?" Bernard asked, looking at the pathetic fire.
"I don't need to make much of an effort." Allen stated, putting back his dagger and staring coldly at Bernard as if he was beyond saving.
"After all, you're weak." Allen said with a small smile before the fire spread at an incredible rate as it overtook Bernard's body and burnt him into a crisp, leaving a dead skinless corpse on the floor.
Allen quickly walked over to Calix and checked his condition, he wore a worried expression on his face while his eyes showed hints of anger. "I should've came along, I'm sorry." he apologised.
Placing his hand on Calix's chest, he attempted to heal his friend, the blood soon dried up, the injuries disappeared without a trace but he was still unconscious.
Leaving Calix on the floor, he located the Adelsons and healed them too. Suddenly, his whole body exploded into pain when the adrenaline left his body.
Allen fell on one of his knee and glanced back at Calix to make sure his companion was fine before he closed his eyes and dropped unconscious on the floor with a loud thud.
