章節 73: 73. Stupified

The rogue class S twisted his body in mid air and dodged to the side. His eyes saw what gave him that sense of danger, it a black bullet.

Faint red colour covered it's black body. Before he could run far the bullet expanded and exploded. A dark red liquid sprayed out like a tide. Amidst the red water tide was innumerable black needles with barbs on it's body.

They grew in size as they flew. The rogue class S was shocked and dodged.

Though most of the needles failed to reach its mark, some did. The rogue class S had his body torn through and large amount of red water entered his system.

The rogue class S gritted his teeth and forcefully tore off an arm. His flesh squirmed and squeezed out a lot of the red water that entered his body.

However he could still feel a part of the red water flowing through his body. It was slowing down his reaction speed and paralysing his muscles. But now was not the time to stay and force it out completely.

He continued to escape despite his wounds. Edward was bleeding from his shoulder and slightly panting. He needed a minute to gather his strength to fire the same shot again but by that time the rogue class S would have escaped.

Larry also shook his head in regret. Just as they were sighing a rumble came from the direction of the collapsed mine. Everyone collectively looked over.

Bang!

The collapsed mine suddenly caved in and someone blasted out. A figure covered in dust and smoke came out, his hair was a mess and his clothes were torn or burned apart, his shoulder had a deep wound and blood soaked his shirt.

"Leo!"

Arthur yelled in excitement.

However Leo didn't bother and looked over at the escaping rogue class S Extraordinary. His eyes burning with fury, he jumped on top of a large tree, his feet planted onto its bark, the tree started to quiver and bend into an arc before straightening out.

A moment later under everyones shocked gaze Leo shot through the air and landed infront of the rogue class S.

Creaaak! Bang!

The tree broke in half and fell down, several agents nearly became meat paste under the tree. Luckily Arthur pulled them back.

Edward and Larry were also shocked.

Leo glared at the rogue class S before him. The rogue class S knew his life was at stake and decided to bet it all.

"Go all out!"

He yelled and rushed forward. His body and head swelled up. His mouth ripped to his ears and razor sharp teeth filled it's inside.

However just as he took a step forward a foot sunk into his gut and blasted him through a cluster of trees.

"Go all out!? F*ck you! F*ck you! You almost made me a mine ghost! F*ck you!"

The woods at night should have been silent and eerie but tonight it was filled with loud curses and thrashing sounds.

Every agent including Edward and Larry looked at Leo who was thrashing the class S rogue Extraordinary like a mad bull. His body was covered in blood and soil, his limbs were broken and useless. For a moment they felt pity for him.

After a while Leo didn't sense any life beneath his feet and calmed down. It's rare for him to get this mad, he was nearly made into a meat paste. When the mine fell, rocks weighing tons crashed on him.

Almost all of his "Breath" was used up just to get out. He huffed and sat down.

Seeing that it was over everyone rushed towards Leo. Edward and Larry looked at each other and sighed sadly.

The power gap was heartbreaking.

"Thanks Leo, if not for you Emma would have died."

Leo waved his hand, "Oh please, that brat won't die so easily."

"What the hell does that mean!?"

An angry immature voice broke his words. Leo looked behind Edward and Larry, Emma was looking at him angrily.

Leo smirked, "A good tree attracts hatred, evil grows unimpeded. You are evil... brat."

Emma nearly blew her top when she heard him, a few agents held her off. Some of them couldn't help but laugh when they saw them bickering.

The tense mood slightly relaxed.

An agent came forward and cleaned Leo's wounds, she tried to stitch him back up but the needle broke when it touched his skin.

Edward ordered his men to clean up the area, since the mine collapsed it's going to be hard to search for any materials the rogue Extraordinaries held. Edward and Larry could only sigh in regret.

This was a class S Extraordinary's base, it was bound to have some good stuff. Alas, everythings now under tons of rock.

By the time the area was cleaned up the sun was already peeking out over the horizon.

Leo's wounds were simply cleaned and bandaged since stitching was impossible. He regained some strength and was able to walk.

All of them returned to the base, Leo hit the bed once he felt his senses relax. He only woke up when the sun was setting. The first thing he did after waking up was to eat.

He ate food for ten people, which shocked the owner of the restaurant. The owner was worried he got a runner but relaxed when he saw the bills stacked on the counter.

Leo returned to the base after a hearty meal and found all of class S Extraordinaries there. Sam and few others he didn't recognize was also there, of course that hateful brat was also present.

"Hmph!"

Emma snorted when she saw.

Leo grinned and said, "It's impolite to greet others like that, but of course that's to be expected from a brat."

"Go to hell, you damn monkey!!"

Emma threw a piece of cake she had on her table. Leo simply caught it and ate it, "Atleast you know how to give snacks."

Emma immediately flared up. Christine pacified her and winked at Leo. He shrugged and took his seat.

As soon as he sat down he asked Sam, "I have earned my ticket back and more, right Sam?"

Sam smiled lightly, "Of course. The organisation is happy to pay you."

Leo nodded, "That's good. Since I have some extra money it's time for me to take a break."

Everyone was stunned.

"You are taking a break?", Dalia asked.

Leo nodded, "Battle and leisure should be combined otherwise life would be too boring."

No one denied his claim as it was right. Continuous killing might change a persons psyche, it good to relax once in a while.

Larry smiled, "It's good to relax. What are you planning to do?"

Leo thought for a second, "Just the usual, go for a walk, exercise, read, go fishing if possible, I don't know, I am going to do anything that cross my mind."
