Chapter 15 - Firefly.

''We have arrived.'' A man said; he had brown hair with sharp eyebrows and green-colored eyes. His face was average, while a vast scar was located on his neck. He is 7-Moon Villain - Luka.

Neal nodded next to him and looked towards the busy building of Heroes Association.

They were currently standing in an alley, not far from the building.

They were still in Charmful, and their Villain Association base is not far from their current position.

Raizo thought that they would never guess that the feared Villain Association is their neighbor.

Neal again felt how fearful Raizo indeed was.

Not only his fighting prowess.

His intelligence is also way above anyone he has ever met.

Neal rarely respects anyone.

Because he is young and already a 9-Moon Villain, he doesn't even respect the First Finger Phantom.

But he respects Raizo.

Behind him, over ten villains were standing on standby; they all were around 6-Moon rank, while few were on 5-Moon.

It is an extremely dangerous group.

And the Heroes Association has to face it.

Neal nodded. ''Let's go.''

Luka and the rest nodded and followed behind him.

Neal entered the busy streets, and their group attracted a lot of attention.

Especially since they didn't look like good guys, they looked like a bunch of delinquents with their tattoos and ear piercings.

Citizens of Charmful got curious and looked where they were heading.

And they were astonished after seeing them heading straight towards the Heroes Association building.

Neal and the villains behind him ignored the citizens.

They reached the enormous 100-floor Heroes Association building.

Neal opened the door and entered the Front Lounge of Heroes Association building.

He saw most of the screens showing the scene of Jack walking towards the citizens of Charity.

Most of the people's attention was on the screens.

Neal smirked slightly, his group of villains entered the building, but it still didn't attract any attention.

Neal's hands started glowing with green light.

His ability is called Firefly.

This ability allows him to create fireflies made of fire.

Hundreds of small green balls left his hands and started floating in the lounge area.

The fireflies, of course, attracted everyone's attention.

It is very bright after all, especially since it's already dark outside and the fireflies light up the place nicely.

''So pretty...'' The receptionist said with shining blue eyes; she reached her hand towards the Firefly.

Finally, the green fireflies are everywhere in the Lounge.

Neal smirked and clenched his fist.

[Fire Symphony]

*BOOM*

The fireflies exploded and covered the whole Lounge in green fire.

''ARGHHHH!'' People inside the Lounge cried out with despair after fire covered their bodies.

''AHHHHHHH!'' The receptionist's face was on fire, she screamed with desperate voice, but her voice soon turned hoarse.

She fell to the ground without any signs of life.

Neal watched with a calm smile as everyone in the Lounge died.

*WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*

Sirens echoed in the Heroes Association.

''Do your thing,'' Neal told the others.

Luka nodded and started running towards the second floor with other villains.

Neal stayed on the Lounge because he got information that the Chairman wasn't in the Heroes Association building; instead, he was in some gala.

And the Chairman was the Main Character of the gala because he defeated some dangerous 8-Moon Villain who terrorized a city nearby.

Neal walked towards the receptionist's desk and sat down on it.

He watched at the door and waited for his opponent to show up.

Heroes Association building was already in chaos.

Luka and the Villains killed everyone they found, and they had already reached the 20th floor.

Finally, some Heroes fought back, but the villains easily defeated them because only three and 4-Star Heroes were present.

While the stronger Heroes are currently not in the Heroes Association building, most of them are in the gala, and some are in their homes.

Only Deputy Chairman was left, and he is 7-Star Hero.

Neal waited for another half an hour.

Luka and the group of Villains already have reached the 50th floor.

Neal was about to fall asleep, but then the door exploded in pieces.

He finally had a slight smile on his face.

A Group of 10 people appeared from the door with an angry-looking face.

The man leading them had a muscular figure with a brown mustache, and he had a buzzcut hairstyle with an aged face. He was a 9-Star Hero and the Chairman of the Heroes Association located in Charmland - Rinkell.

Behind him was a group of heroes standing angrily while looking at Neal; they were all in the 6-Star and 7-Star Hero ranks.

They saw Neal sitting calmly, and they recognized him.

Rinkell narrowed his eyes. ''What are you doing here? 9-Moon Villain - The Ninth Finger of Villains Association Neal, the Pyromaniac!''

Neal chuckled, the corner of his mouth curved slightly. ''Because of him.'' He pointed towards the screen where it showed Jack's figure walking calmly.

Rinkell snorted, he heard about Jack as well, and he got a call from Kenturion calling for backup, but he thought they didn't want to spend their workforce to subdue the villain and instead use the other countries.

But then he heard about Kenturion dying.

He planned to send a group of Heroes to assist them in the morning, but this happened.

''Do you think you can defeat us all?'' Rinkell asked angrily.

Neal chuckled. ''Are you sure I am the person you should focus on?''

''What do you mean?''

''I have already sent a group of Villains to kill everyone in the building, and they are already on the 50th Floor.''

Rinkell and the group of Heroes widened their eyes in shock.

Some of them had their family members working for the Heroes Association.

''Go now!'' Rinkell told the group of heroes.

The group of heroes, in a hurry, started moving through the stairs.

Only Neal and Rinkell were left in the Lounge.

Neal stood up and cracked his knuckles.

''I am going to enjoy this,'' Neal said with a grin.

''Not for long!'' Rinkell yelled; his arm started transforming, and brown-colored spines soon filled his arm.

Rinkell's ability is called Porcupine.

With his ability, he can use the spines from Porcupine any way he wants to.

He can throw the spines with lighting speed, or coat his body with it, creating an incredible defense.

Rinkell pointed his hand towards Neal.

[Spine Rain!]

The brown-colored spines left his hand and flew towards Neal.

Neal crouched slightly and leaped towards the ceiling.

And once, he was in mid-air.

His hands turned into a color of green again, and dozens of green balls left his hand and started floating towards Rinkell.

[Spine Swipe!]

Rinkell swiped his hand, which made hundreds of spines fly straight towards the green balls.

Every time the spine hit the ball, it exploded.

And soon, the floor of the Lounge was a sea of fire.

Neal landed in the middle of the fire sea, but his body didn't touch the fire.

Rinkell was still standing at the entrance of the building.

He couldn't move forwards because of the sea of fire.

But he saw Neal's figure.

Both of his arms turned into spines; he put his hands forward, aiming at Neal.

[Spine Railgun!]

Hundreds of Spine's left his hands.

Neal saw hundreds of spines flying straight towards him with incredible speed.

He crossed his arms, and both of his arms turned into a color of green. Soon green color filled his body.

But then green balls left his body, and they floated gently in the air, making a circle around Neal.

[Firefly Protection]

The green balls exploded, and soon the area around Neal was a huge flaming pillar.

The spines hit the flaming pillar and instantly turned into ashes.

Soon all the spines turned into ashes, and the flaming pillar disappeared.

Neal's figure was shown, and he was perfectly unharmed.

The sea of fire also subdued greatly, and the floor was visible again.

Rinkell walked from the entrance of the building.

Brown-colored spines entirely covered his body.

[Porcupine Transformation!]

He didn't look like Porcupine.

Instead, he looked like a man with spikes all over his body.

Neal's both arms turned into a color of green.

''RAAA!'' Rinkell roared and rushed towards Neal.

Neal lowered his stance and waited for Rinkell to attack.

Rinkell punched towards Neal with his spine-coated fist.

Neal jumped towards the ceiling.

Rinkell was about to follow him, but he noticed a small green ball floating in front of his eye.

''?!'' Rinkell widened his eyes, but then the green ball exploded.

*BOOM*

''ARGH!'' Rinkell screamed; the green ball sent him flying towards the nearby wall.

Neal landed on the ground gently and waited for Rinkell to show up.

Rinkell's body was shown inside the wall, and his body was uninjured, except...

His left eye was missing.

Rinkell covered his eyesocket with his hand. ''ARGHHH!'' He cried in agony.

Neal grinned and again small green balls appeared around him.

The green balls left his body and started floating towards Rinkell.

The green balls floated around Rinkell.

More spikes appeared in Rinkell's body, desperate attempt to block this upcoming attack.

But then... The green balls exploded.

[Fire Symphony!]

*KABOOM*
