Chapter 36 - S-rank skill...

Red flows down on the ground

A wounded veteran on his knees

Sirius breaths aloud.. 

The four men smile

They savour the moment..

"Guess i have no choice but to use it" sirius whispered to himself 

His shield had been cracked 

His body wounded 

The men grew overjoyed 

Which led one of them into making a fatal mistake 

And that is all that sirius was waiting for 

They charged at him 

But one of them had grown overconfident 

He thought they had won 

He charged at him slower than before to mock him 

Yet Sirius used all of his strength in his legs 

THUMP!!

Captured.. 

 B-rank skill: gigantification [30% output]

He held the legs of the man in his hands 

S-rank skill:… Defense of the flesh.. 

He started to swing the man.. 

And in that moment..

The hunters realised..

The reason the old man.. 

Was a hunter

"Hahahha…" 

"HAHAHAHAHAHAAAHHH!!!!" he laughed like a madman 

Then he stopped 

He looked over at them and his gaze had turned.. 

Different 

"They say that humans are the most feared and dominant species"

"But what if?.. The strongest species can be turned into a weapon"

He smiled.. 

His face showed what every human fears 

Happiness.. 

The remaining three charged at him 

But a tank has two weapons 

Not just a shield 

But also a sword 

And now the man had turned into a sword 

Flesh made weapon 

They swung their daggers at him 

And he fought back with their party member as a weapon

They couldn't cut through his flesh 

It's as if his body had been turned into a real sword 

Sirius laughed.. 

And laughed

He struck down one of them..

And in his final moments he saw 

A tower of a man wielding his friend as a sword

Grab him and slowly crush his skull

The other two had understood that fighting him was now inviting death upon themselves 

They ran, they ran as fast as they could 

"WHAT was the deal with that old man?!" one of them shouted as they climb and ran over the trees 

"He!!.. He killed them!!" the other shouted back 

Sirius inhaled slowly.. 

His hand drawn back mechanically

His feet stepped into a position 

The body in his hands twisted again and again as his position changed

Exhale.. 

WHOOP!!!!

"That old man he isn't hum-" 

STRIKE!! 

The hunter was cut in half 

His lower body stood still.. 

It's as if his body couldn't process just how fast it happened 

His face still his eyes widened 

The last remaining hunter fell down.. 

The sheer sight of what he just witnessed made him crawl out of fear

His mind started to race with thoughts "we!.... We ha- had esc-aped the ol- man" 

"We.. we wer-e atlest a.. Atleast four kilom-eteres awy or mo-re" 

THUD!!! 

The surrounding air was filled with dust and sand 

Then he saw it 

Eyes flashed behind the dust.. 

Giant, tall and cruel 

"I see..that your friend is dead" 

"Guess you are the last one that remains" he spoke, his voice laced with a strange sense of.. Calm 

"Pl- please!! Spa-re me take my- tak- the band!!!" he yelled his voice trembling, his body shaking violently 

"Ohh…" 

"But i am not here for the band anymore"

"I am here for you" his eyes looked straight into the man, his face was expressionless 

Yet he was smiling 

The man tumbled back and crawled

But it was of no avail now 

He catched his legs 

And dragged him.. 

Then landed his foot right on his skull 

"You had fun killing people in the past didn't you?" sirius muttered 

"You might be wondering how I knew?" 

Tears fell from the man's eyes as his face was being crushed between the ground and his foot 

"I can tell from the way you look like you piece of shit" he roared his gaze tightened with anger 

His foot slowly increased with strength

The cries slowly started to fade away 

His skull started to change its very shape 

SPLASH!! 

The ground turned crimson 

Bits and pieces everywhere 

And a man stood alone.. 

He exhaled.. 

The skill slowly shut down.. 

He returned to his common size

Yet something had changed deep inside him 

And he knew it….. 

Meanwhile on the other side of the forest.. 

The night had grew thicker and darker 

The hunters hid in bushes trees and corpses for rest 

Not to sleep but to sit and breathe 

As closing your eyes here meant certain death 

The sun rose slowly it had not changed but the people had 

Some had died

Some had killed 

And some.. Turned 

Elijah rose slowly along klaus and sukiro 

He had seen throughout the forest

"There are about.. A hundred and twenty hunters remaining" he muttered 

"So many?" klaus staggered 

"There was three hundred yesterday" Elijah spoke 

Klaus was silenced 

"Let's keep moving then" sukiro said calmly 

BOOM!! 

The ground exploded 

The team jumped back just in time to avoid it.. 

A mage emerged smiling from it.. 

"Guess you dodged that one" he mocked "lucky" 

"But you won't be so lucky the next time" 

A party emerged.. 

Four more hunters.. 

Sukiro reached for his daggers but Elijah stopped him.. 

"Don't…" he spoke "these…" he manifested his staff for the first time 

Sukiro's eyes widened 

The staff was unlike anything he had ever since

before 

A spear hanged at the bottom 

Human Hands held the orb that shined bright red almost as if it was a star 

Two Horns beneath the orb 

Red wood.. And a weird hole in the center 

Elijah's face turned different 

Into something that sukiro had never seen…
