*Tsk. Guiver clicked his tongue,
"Noril?"
"They're really troublesome when they gather like this." He muttered in his heart, while looking at their faces one by one as they lifted their heads slightly.
The eleven of them were now only looking toward Guiver.
"What is it?" Guiver shouted, "Have you finally understood my position?"
Without a single word coming from any of them, the commander finally slowly opened his mouth.
"Gyu," his voice was low, yet heavy, "Use Eyture."
Gyu nodded slightly.
"Eyture." He said softly.
And this time, unlike before when he tried to see the past by holding his right eyelid with his right hand, he did the opposite. He used his left hand and held his left eyelid.
The right eye closed, while the left eye opened, and briefly, *Fush. many stories entered his sight.
At that very moment, "T-This...!?" Sweat began to appear on his forehead.
"What is it, Gyu?"
"C-Cyrn... He!..."
"Bringing a very dangerous child..."
With a trembling body and stiff voice, Gyu tried to speak loudly. "K-Kill that child!!! He will become an unstoppable threat!!!"
"Hah?!" Guiver and Reigh reflexively were shocked by that.
Not without reason, because Gyu was pointing toward him.
In an instant, upon hearing Gyu's loud words, all the higher-ups of Quiet Guardian put on serious faces.
"Looks like that's enough reunion, Cyrn." Said the Commander.
10 of them released a killing intent that was extremely oppressive. And each of them, equally terrifying.
Closed by a killing intent no one would ever want to feel.
*Bhwoosh.
"T-THIS?!" Even the higher-ups of Grey Lurk were made to shiver by that.
Cyrn slowly smiled, "Heee?..."
"It's been 12 years since I last felt your aura, Commander.."
"Right at that time, when I decided to leave Quiet Guardian, right.."
His eyes began to narrow,
"Seccus.. Otter?.."
Without any more small talk, Seccus raised his right hand, followed by a man who had used sealing earlier, "Seal Binding." The man said softly, becoming their opener.
*Grap. The bodies of the Grey Lurk higher-ups, including Guiver, Cyrn, and Nine, suddenly became stiff and unable to move.
*Gahk. Some tried to move,
"It's already started, huh?..." Cyrn said in his heart,
Guiver also suddenly spoke in his mind, "This time it's more serious, huh?..." Because no one could move their mouths at all.
"My turn,"
*Szt. One of the men in the Quiet Guardian line suddenly disappeared,
*Bush. An attack went straight toward Guiver's face, it was a very fast bare-handed strike.
"O-Oy?!—" Even Guiver only realized when he saw that one of the men had already disappeared, even though that man was already right in front of him.
*Drrrt. A space crack appeared on Cyrn's left cheek.
In an instant, Guiver and the Grey Lurk higher-ups disappeared to who knows where.
"Wh—" The man muttered, looking around.
Right at that moment, he looked up, "CYRN DAMN IT!" The man shouted.
However, Cyrn made no sound and did not move.
Even his eyeballs did not move.
"This sealing skill is really troublesome.." Cyrn complained in his heart, "This time.. it needs more time.."
*Wsh.
*GAAH! Several people immediately flinched when they realized they could finally move again.
This time, Cyrn looked toward the man who had previously done the sealing, "You've improved, huh—"
*Bush. A fast attack struck Guiver.
*Bugh. Right to his stomach. "D-Damn ittt!"
He was immediately thrown far backward.
"It huuurt so much!!!" Guiver complained, who was still being flung far through the air.
From the corner of his mouth, blood came out.
His ears rang heavily because of the wind he passed through *Ngiing. *Brsk Brsk.
*Bzzt Bzzzt Bzzzzt. He tried to forcibly stop his body.
And when he finally stopped, "Your turn, kid!"
"HAAAH!" Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Before he could prepare, *SLASH. A flash slash appeared behind him,
*Sreet. Cutting his neck quickly.
Reigh's eyes glanced quickly toward that man, "Kh.." The corner of his lips lifted.
"Heal." He muttered in his heart.
In an instant, the neck that was almost severed immediately reconnected before the man could attack Reigh's body further.
He immediately tried to turn around while *Grip. Clenching his right fist. "RRRRAAASAKAAAN THIIIS!"
*BUGH. It hit the man's jaw directly.
Before being flung away, the man managed to launch his follow-up attack. *Tusk. A sword stabbed right into Reigh's chest.
He looked at his own chest. His gaze was flat, as if he felt no pain.
*Grip. Holding the sword's hilt.
When he tried to pull it out,
"Stun." Said the man who was now flung quite far.
"Urgh?!" Reigh's eyes widened.
Followed by, "ARRRRGGGHHHH!" An extremely, unbearably painful sensation.
Before he could adapt to that, a whisper appeared in front of him.
"Hooo?"
"Looks like your Berserker is already active, huh?"
*GRIP. He clenched his fist even tighter than before.
Reigh's eyes focused on that, he knew the pain caused by the man who had previously punched him bare-handed.
"W-Wait—" *BURGHHH. Right to his jaw.
Reigh's eyes widened even more, holding back the pain.
"BASTAAAAAARD!" Reigh shouted.
*BURGH. Returning the punch he had just received.
However, the man in front of him smiled thinly. "Doesn't feel enough, kid."
*BUGH. BAGH. The man returned the 17-year-old kid's punch with a flurry of punches that had no clear end.
*Crack. One by one, the bones of Reigh's face cracked.
"URGH..."
Every time a punch landed, "Heal." He always muttered in his heart.
"Heal."
"Heal."
"Heal."
"How long can your regeneration last?! 1 day?! 2 days?! Or one year?!" The man snorted while continuing to punch.
His eyes shone even more when he saw the stats of the 17-year-old he was beating.
"Up! Up! RAHAHAHAHA! YOUR LEVEL IS KEEEP INCREASIIIING, YEAH?!"
His vision began to blur, because for him, every punch felt like giving a debuff effect.
"Why is Guiver so quiet?! Usually he's always noisy in situations like this..." Reigh muttered in his heart.
"But..."
"This tense feeling..."
The corner of his lips slowly lifted, his eyes shone again. "KHA..."
"HM?" The man's happy face while beating him slowly faded,
"KHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHA!"
"GHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Replied by the long laughter of the 17-year-old.
"Laughing?!" The man thought in his heart, his punches slowly slowing down.
"THIIIS FEEELIIING!!! THIIIS SENSAAATIOOON!!!"
"IT AWAKENS MY LUUUUST!" Reigh shouted.
"AGAAAIIIN!", *BURGH. Back to being even faster.
"Punching..." *GRIP. Reigh clenched his right fist,
"LIKE THIIIS, RIGHT?!" *BUUURRRGGHH. That diagonal punch hit the lower left rib area of the man.
"!?"
"So-So heavy..."
*BWOOOSH. Flung away upward diagonally.
Reigh forced himself to try to pull the sword from his chest, the pain became even more intense. "GUHHH..."
The sound of friction with his ribs could be heard, *Krrt. Krrt.
Right at that moment, "Two Slash." *Sring. Slashes came from his right side.
*Drrrrt. With a sword in hand, Reigh blocked the slashes.
*Clank. Clank. They clashed swords.
"You're a dual-sword user, huh?!"
*Slash. The man attacked again from Reigh's blind spot.
Before it could hit, *Szt. Reigh immediately disappeared from in front of him.
*Tusk. "GAHH!" A stab came from behind the man, stabbing right into his back.
"I'm returning your ugly sword." Reigh whispered.
*Szt. Disappeared again.
"That punch from that kid... can be this strong?!" The man who had previously been punched by Reigh muttered, now still thrown far away.
"Up." The man said softly.
Slowly, the veins in his muscles became more pronounced.
His eyes observed carefully, "Where did that kid go?!"
"Hooo... You're a body enhancer type, huh?.." A whisper was heard at the man's left ear.
Reflexively, the man turned his head.
"I want to see how strong that is!"
"BASTARD!!" The man shouted, but it was already too late.
*BOOOSH. A punch from above his head landed right on top of his head.
"!!?"
Toward the bottom of the black hole previously made by Nolaw.
The man fell downward at high speed.
The sound of wind was heard chaotically in his ears. *Bwosh. Grsk. Grsk.
Before he could curse,
*BOOOM. That muscular body slammed into the bottom surface that existed.
"HOOOOOT!" The man screamed.
In the 200-meter black hole made by Nolaw using Oinull, there was a magma base covered in darkness and could not be seen from above.
"HM... Even simulating fighting two people, failed.." Said a man with a soft voice.
"HAAAAAH!" The man with the biggest muscles jolted and immediately opened his eyes.
"You bastard, Noril!!!" The man shouted.
Immediately turning to Reigh whose body was being shaken by Nine. "Kid—"
"What's wrong, kid?!"
Reigh immediately opened his eyes, "HAH?!" He immediately looked confused, trying to understand what was happening.
"Huh?!" Looking around, "Why am I here?!"
"You finally woke up, kid." Said Guiver who was inside him.
"Guiver? What was that just now?! Wasn't one of them—" His words stopped when he realized that the muscular man was fine and the man with the two swords was also fine.
"Yeah. That's how it was." Guiver replied.
"I'm also confused, because we really were sharing control of the body,"
"But suddenly the whole room inside you turned completely black."
"It was like we were separated."
"Separated?!"
"Looks like everything earlier was just an illusion." Guiver replied again.
Reigh looked toward the eleven people, and among them, there was a man speaking and clearly audible to Reigh.
"Two people with 15% ability aren't enough, Commander."
"Hah?!" Reigh snorted in displeasure.
"Switch turns, kid." Guiver said softly, trying to find out himself.
"Alright."
After that, Guiver looked toward Cyrn.
That gaze, Cyrn knew what it meant. "About that man?" He glanced briefly toward a gray-haired man.
Looking back at Guiver's face, "So you experienced it yourself, huh.." Cyrn added.
"In short, he's a bastard who casually gives illusions to others."
"Even I can't tell which is real and which isn't when it's aimed at me."
Guiver was curious about one thing, "Then how about his physical body's condition?"
"Hm? Earlier you only looked like you were standing still for 5 seconds, and your eyes were closed."
"What about that man's opening punch?... I clearly felt that."
"Opening punch?..."
"Wasn't the first attack by that muscle-brain man already avoided by me by moving everyone?..."
Guiver's eyes immediately changed, "What the hell is that?!" He thought in his heart, "Then about us sharing a body... isn't the final result still Reigh using this body?..."
"And in the middle of that illusion... he separated us..."
"Calm down, kid." Cyrn said after seeing the uneasiness on Guiver's face.
"There's still something far more—" He stopped when he saw a woman's face with a thin smile.
"This is bad..." Cyrn muttered.
"What?!"
"Remove The Desire..." The woman muttered in a flirtatious tone.
*Warp. Cyrn hurriedly moved everyone on his side.
