As the gate swung open, Billy and Angel made a mad dash for the lab's exit, while Anon and Mike erged with a calm deanor, summoning their formidable weapons. Anon manifested his deadly sickles, while Mike wielded his pair of lethal daggers.
"Don't kill too many; I want most of them alive. After all, I also want to conduct so experints on them," Anon instructed Mike.
"I understand, Master. I'll try to minimize casualties and capture as many as possible," Mike replied dutifully.
'Master, soone just exited the lab. Should we kill him? He's a vampire, and he's threatening us by showing his fangs. There's also a kid with him,' No.300 inford Anon through their psychic connection.
'Hold off, No.300. Don't kill him. Just tell him you're with ; that should deter any unnecessary conflict,' Anon responded.
'Yes, Master.'
"Is everything alright, sir?" Mike asked.
"Nothing to worry about. We simply forgot to inform that fellow about the army of ogres standing right above us," Anon answered nonchalantly.
"Did they kill him?" Mike inquired.
"No, fortunately, we intervened just in ti. He bared his fangs at No.300, and you know what might have happened if No.300 hadn't consulted ," Anon explained, relieved that unnecessary bloodshed had been averted.
"He's a good father. Despite his weakness, he's brave enough to confront the ogres, clad in mithril armor, to protect his family. He'd do anything for them, sothing I failed to do," Mike said with a tinge of sorrow.
"Co on now, let's not get emotional. We've got work to do. Let's capture these pieces of shit and get back ho," Anon said, offering reassurance as he tapped Mike's shoulder.
"I-I apologize, Master. I shouldn't behave like this. It's just that when I t that man and heard his wife's na, it reminded of my daughter, but that's impossible because she is... sigh"
"What are you talking about? Don't dwell on it. Let's focus on our mission," Anon said, trying to ease Mike's distress.
"Right, Master. Let's go inside," Mike replied, his grip on his daggers tightening.
"Don't worry, Mike. Everything happens for a reason," Anon said reassuringly as he kicked open the door.
Thud
Anon and Mike swiftly entered a vast white hall filled with people wearing white coats. Around 20 individuals were present, and at the center of the room, two won were hanging from poles, restrained by ropes, while blood was being drawn from their hands and legs. Nurous blood bags surrounded them, and their long hair concealed their faces.
The intruders' appearance took the occupants by surprise. One of the white-coated individuals spoke up, demanding to know their identity and daring to intrude.
"He is your father, and I am the grandfather. Now, co and give us a hug," Anon replied calmly, unsheathing his sickles with a resolute air.
Clank
Clank
The daggers slipped from Mike's hands as tears welled up in his eyes, and he reached out towards the two won in the middle of the room.
"Mike? Are you alright?" Anon inquired, concerned about his companion's sudden change in deanor.I think you should take a look at
"Alisa and Jenna?" Mike muttered softly, his voice filled with disbelief and emotion.
The words reached the won's ears, and they turned to look at Mike.
"D-Daddy?" Alisha said with a faint smile on her face.
"Darling... You're here," Jenna exclaid, her eyes welling up with tears of joy.
"Hey, human. Rember what I told you the first day? My father will co for soday, and look, he's here now. So, who's in trouble now?" Alisha said boldly to one of the n standing nearby.
"Guards, kill the intruders," one of the n commanded, prompting 12 giant human Chiras to charge forward from the back of the room.
"Mike, we have to—"
Crackling
Anon noticed pitch-black sparks crackling around Mike's body before he could finish his sentence.
"Mike, calm down. We need to capture them aliv—"
Before Anon could complete his sentence, Mike vanished from his position, reappearing beside his wife and daughter.
Everyone in the room froze for a mont, and Anon observed that Mike's daggers were dripping with blood.
"Fuck..." Anon swore under his breath, realizing the extent of Mike's unleashed fury and what he had done.
Instinctively, Anon touched his temples, and in an instant, everyone in the room dropped dead, including the formidable human Chiras. The white room was now engulfed in crimson, the floor covered in a pool of blood.
Overwheld with emotion upon discovering his wife and daughter were alive after all this ti, Mike's mind had lost control of his anger, leading him to unleash a forbidden skill.
[The skill known as "Endless Shadow Strikes" is a formidable and perilous ability that taps into the untad mana present in the surroundings, channeling it into its darkest manifestation. When invoked, this skill transforms the user into a beast of shadows, granting them unprecedented power and speed for a brief but intense period.
To activate Endless Shadow Strikes, the user gathers the wild mana from the environnt, drawing it into themselves in its unfiltered form. The mana courses through their veins, suffusing them with the essence of darkness. During this process, the user's intelligence is reduced by 50%, their ntal faculties temporarily suppressed as they beco consud by the overwhelming power of the shadows.
However, this dark transformation bestows imnse advantages upon the user. Their damage output is multiplied by a staggering 500%, turning them into a force to be reckoned with in combat. Their speed is also amplified to an extraordinary level, enabling them to move with swift and elusive grace, leaving their opponents struggling to keep up.
To sustain this potent state, a significant 90% of the user's mana is instantaneously consud, reflecting the trendous energy required to maintain such power. It is a costly investnt that demands careful managent of the user's mana reserves.
Yet, as the na "Endless Shadow Strikes" suggests, the skill's duration is limited to a re 5 seconds. Once this brief period elapses, the user will face a painful and potentially dangerous backlash.
The backlash may manifest in various ways, such as physical strain, ntal exhaustion, or even temporary incapacitation.]
