Their instinct to live pushed them to find a way to survive. Some of them scampered towards the destroyed door to try and escape but before they could even take a step out, they were already killed by a string of dark mana that came out from the boy.

It only took less than ten minutes for all the mages to drop dead with their bodies littering the floor. The room was now filled with blood and even the walls were littered with deep marks and blood splatters. Only the boy remained in the middle of that carnage.

Cygnus\'s laugh echoed in the silent room. His laugh was manic and chilling when that white room turned red. Linius on the other hand felt uncomfortable at what he saw. He had been to a battlefield but that slaughter was beyond anything he had ever seen.

"Would you look at that, a monster created by the Magic Tower! What should I do? Should I let Nina capture it?" The master suddenly asked with that evil grin and glint on his face. He looked back at his butler.

"It is up to you master, but that boy is already unstable. I could tell that he won\'t even last until the end of the day." The butler answered with his gaze still focused on the image that was projected in front of them.

Cygnus returned to the projection and saw what the butler was talking about. "Ah, yes you are right, there is so much mana inside him that his body can\'t handle it."

The boy\'s hands, neck and face had some crack lines on them. Those lines were glowing red which showed that the mana that was forced inside his body was going to explode anytime. The boy stood there like a statue after all the people in there were dead.

"How pitiful," Cygnus shook his head even though there were no signs of pity from his face.

Nina and her group were still stuck as to what they should do when the cloak disappeared. The walls now look normal and a door appeared. She walked towards it and turned the door knob.

The door creaked open only to be stopped by something on the ground. Nina\'s eyes widened at the scene before her. The members of her group went to look what was beyond it but only to step back because of what they saw. Some of them even started to vomit because of the gruesome scene.

"What a mess," after her shock, she calmed down too after a few seconds.

This was not something new to her. Thinking about it now, she should have gotten used to it because from the place where she came from, bodies like that could be seen from all directions. She must have gotten so comfortable that she felt surprised after what she saw.

The boy reacted the moment he heard the door opening. His entire body faced the direction where the noise came but he didn\'t make any move. Nina also noticed the boy\'s presence and the malevolent mana inside his body.

"What should I do, master?" She mumbled. She took a step forward as he waited for the master to answer.

The overwhelming metallic smell of blood almost overwhelmed her but she still moved forward. There was still no reaction from the boy even though Nina was a few feet away from him. She stopped and eyed the person who was looking at her but at the same time like he was not looking at her.

"Subdue him, I have a better plan for him." The instruction came and so Nina adjusted her thoughts and also her actions.

She flashed towards the boy in an attempt to touch him but she was pushed back by the black mana string. The shield she surrounded herself with had a crack and if she did not reinforce it, she would have been injured.

The power of that mana string was strong enough to create those deep gash on the walls so she needed to be careful while approaching him. Luckily, she had an ability to conjure things through her magic so subduing the enemy would be easy but a little bit tricky.

She stretched her hands and within seconds, bombs appeared and exploded around him. After the smoke subsided, the boy was completely fine and a wisp of the black mana also disappeared. After that, a string of that dark mana stretched out and attacked Nina.

A shield appeared to block the attack and one of the magic users with her summoned the shield. "I\'m not good at fighting but I\'ll do my best to support you." He sounded sure of himself so the woman let him do whatever he wanted.

Nina was not sure at first so she would attack and defend but every time an attack from the boy was coming at her, a shield would always appear to protect her. The quality of the shield was also quite good. For her next attacks, she didn\'t need to worry about defending anymore because the man was doing it for her.

A barrage of bombs exploded around the boy together with a chain that bounded his feet in place. She did not stop from summoning bombs and letting them explode. She did this until the black mana wasn\'t able to keep up any longer. The moment she saw an opening around the black mana, she shot an arrow.

When the arrow passed through the opening, it dispersed into small needles that managed to pierce through the boy\'s skin. The black mana disappeared and so did her attacks. She landed on the bloody floor with narrowed eyes towards the boy who stopped moving.

The boy suddenly coughed up blood but he paid attention to it. He started to sway from side to side but he still had the intention to attack. He slowly raised his arm and let the black mana out but before it could fully materialize into a string, it dispersed as he continued to cough out blood.

"Master," Nina muttered, then a gate appeared behind the boy. It opened and slid forward to swallow the boy.

The gate closed and disappeared as fast as it appeared. Nina sighed and turned around with her brown hair swaying behind her. The man who assisted her also breathed a sigh of relief. He staggered back and slumped on the dirty floor.

"We are done here. Let\'s rest for a while before we totally destroy this place." Nina announced which made the others finally relax.

After a thirty minute rest, they left through the way they came from and Nina left explosives that exploded once they were at a safe distance. They looked at the dark smoke rising from the laboratory before they entered the gate that appeared.

For the other locations, similar events happened and at the end, Cygnus collected five experimental subjects from those laboratories. The special unit\'s first mission was a success and there were no casualties among them, which was something good.

"What do you plan to do with those?" Linius asked after the projections disappeared.

"You\'ll see and I\'m sure that you\'ll like where I\'ll be displaying them." Cygnus stood up and fixed his clothes.

He stepped out before the whole team arrived at the major\'s study. Linius welcomed them with a smile on his face. He was satisfied with the outcome of their first mission and so did the master so he was not worried.

"You\'ve worked hard for the next few days, you can rest and visit your families. I will also be giving you in advance your salaries," Linius announced. Since the mission was a success there\'s no reason to keep them in the barracks.

The members of the special unit cheered when they heard the major\'s announcement. After thanking him, they left to pack and prepare to visit their families. Lieutenant Ainglar approached the major and intended to report but the man shook his head.
