Demonic Hero - Volume 1 Chapter 19 Hotel Madness

I expect an old, seedy hotel. And yet I saw a luxury, several-star hotel. Which one was impressive from the outside. My eyes showed a tall building several dozen stories high. The building was tall enough that I, who is currently standing on the roof of a four-story building, cannot see the end of the floors. The buildings are very close together so the distance between me and the hotel is not very big. But let’s leave it.

From what Anna gave me in the note. That every time she had to “meet” with the Penguin. She was brought to this hotel. And on the last floor, those events took place. She did not write too much, and did not talk too much about it. After all, it was for her an unpleasant topic. I did not want to pressure her. So this amount of information must be enough for me. At least I know where to start.

When I was about to sneak into the hotel , by slipping inside. Like any other hero, or rather a spy , would do . But I am not like the others, it is hard to call me a hero and I am far from a spy. And something hangs on my back and it’s time to use them. After all, it’s not just a decoration. So it is better to fly to this top floor than risking detection sneaking from the inside.

However, when I was about to take off in the air, my brain finally made itself he woke up. (Hehehe) I remembered that the hotel was definitely monitored and that as soon as the hotel security sees me. It will alert everyone of my presence and the whole plan will fail. I looked around the side wall of the hotel where I was now. And looking up and looking at everything I managed to see that there are plenty of cameras and other electronics designed to alert against burglary. And considering the fact that Gotham is inhabited not only by ordinary thieves but also those endowed with super powers or simply well-trained. Protection measures are at a fairly high level. And adding that this is one of the places where the Penguin often stayed. For obvious reasons. He must have very good security, after all, the leader of one of the largest gangs must look after his safety.

So the best way will be to use the power. So I closed my eyes and tried to focus on the white and black energy in me. During this action, thoughts of “Invisibility (What I would like to get)”, “Refraction of light (all definition and application),” intertwined through my head. Hiding body heat (so that I would not be detectable by the Imager) and many other similar thoughts.After a moment of my thoughts, the energy accelerated and began to flow faster and faster. It was so strong that I was ripped out of this “trance” and opened my eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes I started looking around looking for changes. I looked at my body and I’m still sexy. I mean visible, but it seemed so to , I did look at the windows in which I had seen my reflection before. And now he was gone. And the first thing I thought about seeing no reflection was:

– “I’m a fucking vampire.”

Then there was a slight amusement on my face. But after a while the serious expression returned and I took off.

I started to climb up along the building. Since I was invisible, I had nothing to worry about and gradually rose higher and higher. on the way I looked inside the rooms through the windows. A bit not nice, but I couldn’t resist.

The building was very tall and had a lot of rooms, so I had something to watch. I did not see anything interesting, most of the rooms were either empty or the person staying in it did nothing interesting. Although I was able to find a bathroom window. And I managed to “see something” [; D]. A thought crossed my mind to do it more often, but my morality which is shaken will not let me do it. I was rising higher and I didn’t see anything interesting until last floor separated me less than four floors through the window, I saw many armed men standing in many places. Some sat on armchairs, others guarded the elevator. in total the last six floors must clearly belong to the Penguin Gang. And these people are probably his guards, maybe I will meet with him personally, but I doubt I would be so lucky.

I didn’t kill the bodyguards now because it would alert a person on the top floor. And I’m not sure if at the top of the building there is no transport that he could escape. So I start from the top floor, it will be the best option.

When I reached the roof of the hotel, my thoughts turned out to be true. Because in addition to the pool and the surrounding decorations, there was a Helicopter. With him four people standing, one of them is probably one of the pilots and checks the condition of the equipment. So I should start by cutting off one of the escape routes. So apart from the four pepole, no one was on the roof, So I can take care of them.

I have to do it quickly and quietly so as not to alert the rest. As for the location of opponents, it looks like this:

-Two guards are standing by the roof entrance. I am not sure if there is anyone behind the door because the entrance to the roof has no windows, although I sense sinners behind them. So almost certainly someone is standing there.

-There is one person in the helicopter and they check the equipment.

– the last one stands at the entrance to the Helicopter and looks what the guy in the helicopter is doing.

So I have to take care of the guards at the door first. Because they are facing the other two. When I was thinking about a way to get rid of them quietly. I came up with an idea, which was given to me by my first victim who was a so-called super villain. I mean FireFly, the one I fried on the pier. The moment I pushed the flame thrower into his throat. Part of his body charred and even turned to dust. It did not happen immediately, but if I used a higher temperature, really higher. And I would direct the fire so as not to accidentally heat the door. They were metal and would catch the attention if they turned red.

So kill three and stun one. Three to kill for the most ordinary thugs who took more than one innocent life. One he doesn’t want to kill is the person who is now checking the equipment in the Helicopter. I don’t feel anything from him that would make him deserve to die. Unlike his three companions, he doesn’t feel like he ever killed anyone. He’s probably just a pilot or just someone they hired to check the status of the helicopter.

“I’m coming”-I thought and went high in the air.

I soared high above the heads of the guards. Of course, with “Invisibility Mode” enabled. Stupid name, a little hackneyed, but I have no better idea.

When I looked at the roof from above. My mode surprised me and gave me an additional idea for reflection. Because even the shadow does not appear underneath, and even when the wings are flapped, there is no wind that usually arose during the flight. As if I wasn’t here, mixing white and black energy gives amazing results.

I flew centrally above the place in front of entrance the Hotel roof. (I remind you that the guards are standing by the door. One on the left from the entrance, the other on the right.) So when I took a comfortable place between the guards, I placed my hands over the head of the guards. Before I started, I looked to see if the third guard was watching. Fortunately, he was busy talking to a helicopter specialist.

When I knew I could start, I started directing black energy to both my hands and had a picture of powerful black fire in my head. Which has an extremely high temperature, but it works in the area designated by me. I used black energy because white was not suitable for it, or I just had no idea how to use it in this situation. The mix of both energies is too powerful and can bring too much effect. Which can have unwanted effects for me. Pay attention to me. So the best option is black energy that is perfect for this task.

>Sound of blazing flames. (I have no idea how to describe this sound)

The two guards didn’t even have a second to react when both bodies suddenly burst into black flames. I saw for a short while like clothes and then the body burns. The view itself was a bit scary. Although it lasted a few seconds.

The action was fast enough that nobody saw anything. But now I had little time, so I will leave my thoughts on this for later. Now it is time to deal with the other two, I have little time so I moved towards the helicopter.

In the helicopter, the specialist is doing something inside the helicopter. And the guard leans against the helicopter entrance frame and looks at the visitor inside. I see that they both touch the steel parts of the helicopter. Which are great conductors of the current I decided to try something new. Now with slightly less, almost negligible amount of energy. I created a small lightning that I threw into the helicopter. I could only hear “Bzzzz” and the guard and specialist fell unconscious. And from the helicopter smoke began to rise. It was probably caused by the burning of cable in the helicopter.

Of course, I didn’t leave them like that, I ran to a specialist at a high speed and threw him on a deckchair by the pool. I burnt the other one like his colleagues. I didn’t see the point of treating it differently. Just in case, burning the circuits wasn’t enough. I melted two propellers with the help of flames.

Now that I’ve cut off my escape route, it’s time to cut off the last one.
