Bottom A, Top O - Chapter 121

A cold glint flashed over Narukami’s eyes as his legs and hands flickered with lightning. His speed increased by a notch as he used the sinister black dagger.

The Leader narrowed his eyes in danger as he dodged the surprise attack. His eyes were wide open as he was surprised and furious.

The dagger passed his throat by a small margin!

Avoiding a certain death, the Leader retreated for a few steps whereas Narukami clicked his tongue as his attack failed but he did not bother either. He had expected something like this.

He did not give the Leader a chance to catch a breath and so, he rushed forward at him.

For a second, his body flickered with lightning snakes. His body vanished from the spot and appeared next to the Leader.

The Leader raised his hand as he parried the black dagger. The Leader’s hand flew or at least that was what he thought when suddenly.

The dagger was parried by the Leader’s hand! Sparks flew as Narukami continued his assault by swinging his dagger from his left to right, forming a profound arc as it slashed the Leader’s chest.

However, his chest was the same as his hand! His dagger failed to injure him!

Narukami’s eyes frowned as he noticed the skin on both parts was chrome, no longer a skin color but the same as steel.

If not for the fact Narukami witnessed it himself that the Leader could turn his skin as tough as steel, more than if not.

He would’ve thought the Leader has nanoparticle armor behind his clothes.

Such technology wasn’t rare for hidden organizations. Each secret organization had specialties and trump cards on its own.

Narukami did not retreat. He did not want to let this one chance slip away! Once he did, his chance of winning would be lower than the previous one.

If I can’t penetrate his skin from outside, how about the other way around? Narukami nodded inwardly and decided for himself.

On his next few attacks, his dagger let out a purple glow as lightning flickered. The Leader felt dangerous from it so he had no choice but to dodge it.

Most of Narukami’s attacks were missed as the Leader began to go all out. He became more agile than before, making it hard for Narukami to hit him.

Narukami knew he only wasted his energy if this continued. Although his spiritual energy was vast, it was unnecessary to waste his spiritual energy.

He retracted his attacks and retreated a few steps back.

It seems I have to hold on until they come, Narukami thought to himself as he steeled himself for a one-sided beating.

“I give you a chance and this is your answer? Ungrateful brat!” The Leader said as he was furious.

His aura soared and intense killing intent spilled. Locking onto Narukami but he could still move!

With such an intense killing intent, one would be afraid and feel shackles around their body, causing them to stay stiff yet Narukami was calm.

This was to be expected. Compared to an evil god in his past lives who had annihilated hundreds of universes, killing septillion of lives, before a leader of a lowly organization, it was nothing.

“Come!” Narukami taunted with a smirk.

Asahi was in his monster form as he successfully barged into the laboratory. Right now, he was wreaking havoc as he killed everything before him, except killing the scientist.

He destroyed the laboratory’s servers, hardware, and computers. Every data the laboratory stored, he destroyed.

He knew this place quite well as he was remembering the layout of this place, for it would be useful for his escape plans but as far as he remembered, he did not use his escape plans but instead got out with another way, which was something he did not know of.

This should be enough, I must save her and meet again with Narukami and Ryu! Asahi quickly planned in his mind as she halted his attacks.

In his monster form, Asahi still had his consciousness. His height was two meters and his body was all white. There were silver scales and his hair had changed to silver.

His pupils constricted but that was the only thing that changed. He had a human face with the body of a monster.

His arm and leg muscles were bulging. He had a broad and muscular chest. On his right chest, there was a Crystal Veins.

It was beating as if it was a heart and every time it beat, it let out a blue glow.

In addition to this, there was something around the Crystal Veins, it looked like blood vessels.

These blood vessels bulged out and as they spread out, they seeped into Asahi’s body.

Just Asahi was about to go where the test subjects captivated. He was stopped as he detected two auras coming at him.

Shortly thereafter, he sensed two high-energy attacks approaching him at a terrifying speed.

A second later, it appeared in his vision.

There were two rays of light, one was red and one was black. Before they hit him, Asahi dodged in the last moment as he leaped to the side.

Bang!

The lights crashed at the wall. Causing powerful shockwaves that blew away everything, including Asahi for a few meters.

Dust filled the air as Asahi was covered in it. He coughed a few times as he swayed his hand.

When he was blown away, he stabilized himself with his foot. Forming two trails on the ground.

Before Asahi could tell what was going on, he noticed something coming at him from his left.

It was where the entrance of the laboratory was so he speculated it must be reinforcement.

He blocked the attack, or at least he tried to but ended up failing. The attack was faster than his eyes could perceive.

He only saw blurry coming at him and sharp pain transmitted to his brain. Asahi’s expression contorted in pain as the attack aimed at his abdomen.

He was flown away by a single attack, or to be precise, a kick.

It was coming from the Commander!

Asahi crashed the wall as he was stopped and fell to the ground. He curled like a shrimp as he still felt the pain in his belly.

It was quite painful that tears involuntarily flowed down.

It hurts! It hurts! It hurts! Asahi yelled in his mind and was terrified.

He was terrified that he was going to die today. There were many things he had yet to achieve in life.

Damn it, is saving her worth it? Asahi began to doubt his goal.

This pain affected his line of thinking considerably.

Asahi quickly shook his head. He knew such thoughts only hold him back and hasten his death so he threw that away.

He had to focus on the situation he was facing right now.

Two strong Sorcerers, their Levels are higher than mine, Asahi observed his opponents.

The dust had yet to scatter but Asahi saw two humanoid figures.

“Commander, should I kill him? A little insect is not worth your time,” Hawk calmly said as he stepped forward.

The Commander shortly pondered before nodding his head, “He’s yours.”

The Commander took a few steps back as he let Hawk take over the show and let him show performance while the Commander watched.

The Commander was curious as to how strong the direct disciple of the Leader was.

“Thank you.” Hawk nodded and walked before stopping a few meters away from Asahi.

“What an ugly creature. No matter, okay let’s get this quick. Which one do you like? Give up and come back to your place or die?” Hawk asked with a playful tone.

“How about none?” Asahi fled as his body turned to white mist!

He had no chance of winning so why spend the energy to fight? He might as well flee!

Even with his monster form, he had no confidence in winning!

A coward? This was a strategic retreat!

Hawk frowned as this was the first time he saw such a technique.

A spatial technique? Or an illusion? Hawk speculated and spread out his spiritual energy as he looked for Asahi.

Quickly afterward, he found Asahi but the latter’s position was hard to be noticed. It was as though he had a thin presence and so, Hawk wasn’t sure where he was.

“Hum, teleporting, anti-tracking, increased in strength and speed. It seems the project is a success. How did they let a precious test subject escape!” Hawk was furious as he shifted his line of sight to the Commander.

“He was coming to the experiment chamber. We could go there by teleporting and ambushing him, what do you think of this, Commander?” Hawk suggested and the Commander responded that he agreed.

“I’m thinking the same thing too. Let’s go.”

They fished out two golden papers with Japanese kanji of ‘virtue’ and tore them apart.

Quickly their figures became golden particles as they vanished from the spot!

While they were teleported to the experiment room, Asahi was still running in the corridor.

“They stop chasing?” Asahi frowned.
