BXBX NOVEL Chapter 81: Awakening?
The sight of human flesh and organs and the feeling of killing someone with his own hand, was making his head spin plus the poison of the red creature was taking effect.
" COUGH COUGH " he coughed several times and almost fell down, killing someone felt completely different from what he had expected.
Lucian knew he would have to kill people sooner or later and he had imagined various scenarios so many times but he didn\'t expect that he would have to kill someone so soon.
That burly man was alive just now but now he lay there dead, life had completely disappeared from his eyes and even Jackie who seemed so nice had died too.
Lucian could still feel that sensation of his hand tearing through Jackie\'s body and destroying the burly man\'s heart.
[ Calm down, it\'s alright. It happens after all this is your first time killing someone in this life, take in a long breath. ]
Lucian could barely focus on the letter appearing in his head, his heart was beating rapidly, he still couldn\'t believe that he had really just killed-
Lucian bit his lip with all his strength until he was able to clear his mind, blood trickled down his lip and he was finally able to stand then he injected himself with the antidote that the 2nd burly man had given him before dying.
" Huff Huff that felt like my head was about to explode, that poison is quite deadly and... " Lucian paused as he glanced towards the two dead bodies lying not too far away.
" I really killed someone, I don\'t think I\'ll be able to get used to it anytime soon though. "
[ I doubt that, anyway looks like the fight on the other side is going to be over soon. ]
Lucian glanced towards the battle, the red fiend had injuries all over its body and one of its hand was missing, it also seemed to have become a lot slower by now.
Even though burly man put up a great fight but the red fiend just needed to hit him once with its tail and after exchanging countless strikes the red fiend finally managed to scratch his waist.
" Haa haa Damnit, at this rate I won\'t be able to hold on for l- longer. " The burly man mumbled he had no time to even glance at the others since just a single mistake would make the difference between life and death.
" This w- will be the last strike, let\'s haa haa see who a- among us is better. " The burly spoke and the red fiend replied with a loud cry.
*CRIEEEEEEKKK*
Keeping their gaze focussed on one another they took fighting stance and then pounced towards each other with all their might, ready to exhaust the last bit of their strength.
*BANG*
Their attacks were so fast that it seemed just like a blur, in the next moment they were standing some distance away with their backs facing each other.
In that brief moment the red creature had managed to strike the burly man\'s body with its tail, finally releasing poison into his body.
While the burly man hit him with every bit of his strength left which resulted in the scattering of the red fiend\'s hard skin as blood began to flow out of every part of its body.
" Haa haa I guess, this is finally o- ove... " The burly man released a long breath and fell down on the ground, even the red fiend was no longer able to stand on its legs and just sat down.
It was also very badly injured but if it could survive now then it would be able to become much more stronger and evolve, then the beast released a loud roar as if announcing its victory.
*ROOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR*
\' Aside from that boss fiend, how many more of those red creatures are here? \' Lucian asked.
[ Only three more are left. ]
Lucian heard some sound from beside him as he instantly jumped away and glanced back, ignoring the people who were alive, the small red creatures were dragging the corpses with them.
They took away Jackie, two of the porters and even the burly man\'s corpse into the liquid, Lucian wondered why they pulled the corpses into the pond if they are going to get dissolved but that was not important right now.
The boss of the red creatures was breathing heavily as it sat on the ground, its blood had formed a small circle around its body, the fiend wouldn\'t be able to move properly for some time.
*CLICK*
Hearing some sound it raised its head and glanced upwards, only to see a gun pointing straight towards its head.
Lucian was holding the gun of the burly man, he stood not too far away from the creature, his fingers place at the trigger.
The red fiend released a loud roar in the next moment, which was to intimidate him and to call its soldiers back.
The creature\'s tail was injured so its speed had slowed down but it still launched an attacked towards Lucian to kill him with one strike, he seemed weak after all.
*ROOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR-*
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *CLICK* *CLICK* *CLICK*
Lucian shot all the bullets without stopping into the red fiend\'s head, a couple of which even went into its eyes and must have hit its brain, the creature that had just won such a deadly battle now lay dead in front of Lucian.
Immediately, a grey coloured fog was released by the bodies of the red fiend and the two burly men.
All of which rushed towards Lucian and only a wisp of the Fog went towards the two unconscious brothers just because they were present inside the Chasm.
Though it would only be enough to awaken them, while Lucian was rewarded for more than he had done, his body was suddenly surrounded by the Fog, which almost looked like a cloud.
[ Congratulations, this is the best possible outcome, and you are finally going to awaken- huh? What\'s going on? ]
A small amount of Fog even moved towards Zero, and then it was absorbed into the bracelet as she fell completely silent, Lucian also noticed it but he had no time to think about it.
Lucian just stood there not being able to move his body at all, still he was able to breath just fine.
In the next moment, all of the Fog rushed into his body, he instantly felt as if every part of his body was covered in darkness even his brain and senses seemed to have been consumed by darkness.
Only his thoughts remained, Lucian was not sure if this was how everyone awakened so he just allowed changes to occur into his body and mind.
