Chapter 29 - infiltration

Atlanta was stunned a bit by the sudden collision of the spinning motor blade, that had now pierced through her arm. it's sharp razor teeths still spinning forward cutting more deeper.

[-4hp]

'H-he isn't a stimulation. He's real.' She knew this hunter was real, as the pain that was transmitted to her pain along with her blood proved it. Sending her leg it shot fast cutting through the air, aimed for the hunter's head as he couldn't keep up with it.

'Bam!' His head twisted to the side, shifting his body off momentum sending him spinning around. The spinning motor blade has also been forcefully pulled with him away from Atlanta's arm, along with some of her flesh and blood.

'Woah.. am regenerating really fast.' She could see her skin had already started healing, as the nanites worked with great speed. regenerating lost tissues, and joining the part in her arm her bone had been split a bit. It was a strange feeling new to her, as this was the effects of her new class in being a primordial fallen battle angel demon.

"W-what the hell!" Rhoin screamed in fear, seeing Atlanta's arm being cut open with that insane motor blade. He immediately vomited falling to his knees on the floor, irritated by the sudden sight of mashed up flesh with blood.

'Geez. what a crybaby.' Atlanta inwardly said, seeing Rhoin's sentimental attitude. Looking front she could now see the hunter had stopped spinning, his head still twisted to the side with the same sadistic smile.

'He didn't die from my attack?' She was a bit surprised, this hunter didn't die from that kick. She didn't put in too much strength but still, with her current strength and speed she'd guessed she would've long killed this intruder hunter.

'Oh well, let's end it.' She was about heading out to finish off the hunter since she was faster, but stopped seeing the strange double ponytail girl, suddenly stand to her feet tightly holding Atlanta.

"H-he's back. He's found me after all I tried!" She screamed mumbling like a mad person, tightly clinging her body to Atlanta's.

'What the hell?' Atlanta was confused at the same time, annoyed by this crazy girl behavior. First she acted dead without life, and now seeing this hunter she'd suddenly regained life deciding to stick close to her.

'Shit.' She was caught up in her thoughts, that she hadn't realized when the hunter had moved from his spot and was now in front of them, his spinning razor sharp motor blade sent straight for her head. Dodging to the side she then spun her leg, sending out a kick to the hunter gut to which he shockingly dodged.

"Hey girl! get off me or we're dead." Atlanta spoke to the frightened girl, but it only added more salt to the fire as she then buried her head to Atlanta neck, hugging her tightly her legs wrapped around her waist.

"N-no.. don't leave me again please.. I-i can't let you go, just like mum did." The scared girl stuttered, clutching more tightly to Atlanta.

'Huh?' Atlanta was stunned a bit by what she just said, but she didn't have time to figure out what she meant as a kick was sent to her. Since she was faster she dodged using her legs again, since her hands were temporarily unavailable at the moment.

'Argh! this girl is getting more annoying.' Atlanta thought. the only reason this hunter was still alive now, was because she had to worry about the girl same age or bit older than her on her. Limiting her movements and blocking her view, leaving only a small space to see through.

"Haaa.. y-you're ene-gy.. it's so pretty." The hunter uttered in a spooky low tone that was heard by Atlanta, causing chills to be sent down her spine. Shaking off the feeling she calmed her mind, narrowing her focus down to him.

'That's it.' She sent out a fury of kicks to the hunters body lightning fast, as it connected with little bang sounds from her kicks, connecting with his strangely hard human body.

The hunter couldn't retaliate as he was sent backwards, each blow from Atlanta dealing a great amount of force. She was faster, giving her the advantage in this handicapped fight, as she faired well.

"Die." She softly said packing all her strength into her legs, as she shot it forward. It cut through the air making small bang noises, as it met it's target which was the hunter's head.

'Bang!' His head was forcefully severed from his body by Atlanta kick, as it fell to the floor rolling away. Atlanta could see the same sadistic smile plastered on the head, as it stopped, facing her.

"Now that's over why don't-" she was cut short of her words, when something sharp pierced through her stomach protruding outwards.

"Argh!" She shouted in pain as the foreign object was twisted still in her guts, sending out more intense pain to her brain.

[-15hp]

[Unknown object is in system, regeneration speed is now halved. HP will begin to drop faster by one every 30 seconds.]

[User stats and energy have now been halved.]

[HP: 275]

She could feel her regenerating speed was now disrupted, as the foreign object was still in her system. A kick was then sent to her back, sending her flying and crashing to the floor. the hold from the girl on her was now broken, as they fell hard.

'H-how could he still be alive?' She thought shocked, as she could see the body of the headless hunter standing there. She'd used eagle eyes skill to pinpoint his weakness which was the head, to which she'd dealt with but unfortunately he is still alive.

'What is this?' gritting her teeth, she pulled the strange object stuck in her guts from the back. Looking at it she saw it was a strange thin and long silver shard, with a blue line from the tip going down to the buttom.

"N-now you're mine." He smiled evily approaching her, his motor blade spinning rapidly in his arm.

'I-i can still take care of him. I-i just have to find his weak spot.' She thought getting up, wiping her lips of the blood that was seeping down her mouth. Running fast, she decided she couldn't beat this hunter with her current speed since it was now halved, so she decided to go all out not holding back.

"I love a good fight before my meal." The smile on the hunters head widened more, as his body shot forward.

'Bam!' they clashed in the center, both sending out a barrage of strikes to each other. The hunter was now faster than Atlanta a bit, but she wasn't lacking that much. and besides she had some experience in battle, so she could predict some of his attacks pinpointing his moves.

'Why does it feel like the power in his strikes increases with every blow.' She thought, noticing the increase in power from the hunter as he didn't show any mercy, punching kicking slashing and hammering away on Atlanta.

'Boom!' A small boom sound went off as she was sent into the wall, cracking it. Her bones were crushed a bit as blood spilled from her mouth, some even leaking down from her head covering her face.

'What the hell? I thought this fucking class was meant to make me terrifyingly strong.' She thought, as the main reason she chose the class was for it's amazing and enticing benefits. Though it had drawbacks which was alarming, but she felt she could manage it.

"Come on." The hunter's head softly spoke while his body mocked Atlanta, teasing her to dare come forward. Annoyed, she was about going out when she suddenly felt a hand on her back. looking back, she could see the strange girl was holding her back.

"Do you have a death wish?" She asked, as she was about to remove the girl's hand from her shoulder. She was annoyed from earlier as this little rascal had distracted her, causing the hunter to steal the opportunity.

"Don't. you don't have a chance, he's playing with you." The girl spoke in a calm manner, staring forward. Atlanta was taken back by the sudden speech from the girl, as she wasn't expecting it. She knew the girl wasn't dumb from Nexus readings, but she had a very spooky personality so she termed her mentally I'll.

"Right.. and what do you suggest I do? Sit back and wait till he rips our head off." Atlanta sarcastically said, making the girl giggle a bit.

"You're funny.. I think I like you."

"Well the feeling's not mutual." Atlanta coldly retorted, causing the girl to chuckle softly.

"I can see the reason he asked me to protect you.." she softly spoke causing Atlanta to raise a brow, confused by what this strange girl had just said. She didn't know who she was referring to and wanted to ask, but the girl had already spoken again.

"Am Mira.. and I'll take care of the hunter." She softly said. Atlanta wanted to say something but couldn't do so, as Mira had already disappeared from her spot, leaving a trail of purple electric currents sizzling in the air.

'What?' Atlanta was dumbfounded seeing Mira on the other side at the hunter's back, as just a minute she was beside her. She hadn't even seen the girl move nor sensed it, but her eyes weren't deceiving her right now.

'Shhh... Thuds!' A hole was made, at the tip of the place where the line connecting the chest and the hunter's head was. His lifeless body fell to the ground in defeat, Atlanta then looked at the head and could see his eyes closed, the creepy smile wide out fron his face.

"Y-you're-" Atlanta wanted to ask Mira so many questions but alas, the latter had already fallen to the floor fast asleep.

'How did she do that?' Atlanta wondered, as Mira had undoubtedly used her energy to channel a skill. She didn't know how but she did it, and it was really strong killing the hunter with one strike.

[HP: 243/300]

'Why do bad things always happen to me?' She was annoyed by the fact Mira stole her kill, as she'd planned to regenerate and also aquire some bonuses from the system. She was also grumpy by the fact that strange things were happening to her from out of nowhere, and worst part was she didn't have the answer why?

"Wait.. what happened to everyone." She was so caught up in the battle, that she'd failed to notice her environment. Looking round, she could see everyone had now literally stopped as in frozen in their tracks.

'T-this is an infiltration..' she finally realized, seeing some hunters formed out of the stimulation still standing there, staring at her not moving.
