I Am Tired Of Being A Hero Chapter 160: He could not do it

WARNING: GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION OF DEATH and VIOLENCE

"Fuck!" Nova swore, now far away from that godforsaken town, she could relax a bit. The wrapping device had taken her far east, judging from the dry air in the end.

As for now, she knew, Helena would always ramble about this kind of thing to Fluxx. She was always like that, thinking that she was helping Fluxx by telling him all those things even though he had never asked for it.

Victor had always spoken about how sanctimonious she was.

"If you are not here, you would think that she is in so kind of heroes academy and not one of ours, always acting like she is better than us."

Nova had thought so as well, but recalling how that person had stood in front of her, it made her stomach churn. She must be dead by now.

"Fuck!" She swore again as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a cigarette, lighting one up and taking one long drag.

As she blew up rings of smoke, she saw sothing in front of her. She blinked and looked again, suddenly stumbling and falling heavily into the sand.

It was like a hallucination. A thin, tall police officer was holding a woman and staring at her, those indifferent eyes had a red light in them that terrified her.

"How?" She stepped back but soon the anger soon turned into rage. "Why do you keep following us around, what did we do? What did we do that was so evil? This is a dog-eat-dog world. Bla it for being so damn weak."

She stomped her feet on the ground, akin to a beat and she rushed forward, her motion causing the stone beneath her feet to crack and she leapt forward.

Nova was born with enhanced physical attributes, it was a very common ability that more than 40% of the mutants in the world had but she was different from all of them. Nova did not just have enhanced hearing, enhanced strength, enhanced speed, or enhanced reflexes. She had all of them, her agility and endurance made Kadia pick her out of the 100 people that wanted to join the Phantom.

Why should she be here terrified of this person?

She instantly closed the distance and like lightning, her leg kicked towards the direction of Ravi’s trachea.

"Watch out!" Reese scread but Ravi easily blocked the kick with his left arm.

Demons, the extrely high-level ones, ca with an ability neutralizer. To kill them, you have to be faster, stronger, and sharper without your ability.

Holding her leg, he twisted it and threw her away.

However, the mont she landed on the ground, she was back on her feet and rushed him.

With the power that ca with the rotation, Ravi shot out his left arm and cut into her throat, causing her to spurt blood. Nova’s eyes were horrified when the thin man descended on her.

Without their abilities, most mutants were standing ducks so why...why. The terror that had left her returned double as the kick against her shoulders led to a loud crack.

She instantly turned and began running.

"You played this ga a lot with Asher. Hide and Seek. If you find him, then you beat him. He is my ward so I hope you don’t mind playing on his behalf. Just so you know, if I catch you, I will beat you to death." His voice was still so calm, so indifferent yet when it entered the ear, it seed to contain a monstrous anger that made a chill run down one’s side.

He was so angry. Boundless flas of rage blazed at the bottom of his heart, and it was like cold flas as it surged throughout his point, so intense, so stimulating that he felt that his fragile ntal hold would soon shatter.

***

Run!

Nova held her fractured shoulder as she quickly moved up from the ground, her heart pounding in her chest, she turned and ran. The fear was like rain over her body and she tried to activate the wrap device that Helena had given her, this ti, she would run to the police station but the device remained dead, cold to the touch.

She had never run so fast in her life, she could feel the footsteps behind her.

It was wispy like the wind, heavy like a drum and it carried a rhythm that made her heartbeat speed even faster. Rather than the floor, it was like he was stepping on her heart.

Nova felt so suffocated as the terrifying pressure fiercely pressed over from all directions, It felt as if a large mountain had pressed onto her back and a powerless feeling of being unable to resist suddenly erged in her heart,

She had crawled, from the streets all the way to being a mber of the Phantom, she still had so much, so much she wanted to achieve. How could she die here, she could not, she just could not.

Her thoughts gave her the extra boost as she sped forward. But in her rush, she quickly lost her sense of direction and as she was about to move, she felt a sharp pain from the back of her head, causing her to fall over.

"Get up! Get up!" She scread at herself as blood ran down her ears and cheeks, the ground beneath him.

She was turned over and the indifferent face punched her on the nose. The sound of her nose breaking resounded in her eyes and the hot bucket of molten pin washed over her.

She was in so much pain that she wanted to scream but her throat could only squeeze out a bubble of gas. She groaned.

Ravi lifted his hand to punch her one more ti but he paused and sighed. Picking a stone next to him, it transford into a long, thin sword.

He looked at her, "Death is not a redemption for the likes of you. It is the beginning of suffering." The sword moved, severing the neck from the head.

Ravi sighed. Although he was so angry, he could not even be hardened enough to give these people what they deserved. He felt the cold in his chest wrapping around him and he missed him.

His fla.

Ravi vanished, leaving behind the cry of a young woman in the plains, "Please don’t leave here."
