Unknown, seeing Nest vanish right in front of his eyes, looks around in confusion. In confusion, he starts to think to himself.
"Did he just disappear? I can sense that he only activated level one from the amount of OGI coming from his body, so there's no way he's using some type of power or ability. Ok, if he's not using powers or abilities, then where the fuck did he go?"
Nest appears behind Unknown and cuts him twice in the back. With blood spilling from his back, Unknown falls to the ground.
"Ha, you damn fool, you thought you could just come into my camp and beat up my men and see the results of my operations and get away with it! I'll skin you like a wild beast; now it's time for you to die!"
"It won't be that easy, you bastard!"
Unknown jumps up and kicks Nest in the face.
Nest backs away from Unknown and once again disappears.
"Fuck, he disappeared again. How the hell does he keep doing that? Wait, why am I starting to feel woozy?"
Unknown starts to breathe heavily and turns pale.
"Wait, are those blades posined tipped?"
As Unknown sways side to side, Nest appears in front of him and stabs him in the shoulder.
"Ahh!"
Nest once again disappears, and Unknown falls to the ground.
"Damn, I can't take another attack like that. I can feel the poison flowing through my body. If I don't move now, it might be over."
Unknown grabs his wound and tries to run. The second he starts moving, Nest appears behind Unknown and says, "You can't run from me, you fool; I'm a master of the accelerate technique. So running from me is pointless!"
Nest attempts to slice Unknown's head off, but Unknown turns around and catches Nest's blade with his bare hands. He then grabs Nest by the collar and brings him closer. Nest quickly takes out a second blade and stabs him in the stomach, but despite that, Unknown hugs Nest tightly.
"What the hell, you fucking freak, let go of me."
Unknown starts to hug Nest even harder, pushing his limits to hold him down.
"You're not going anywhere, bastard!"
As Unknown hugs Nest tightly, the poison takes effect, and he loses his grip on Nest. He falls to the ground, and Nest quickly backs away from Unknown.
"You fool, the poison on my blade is made out of the guts of those vicious beasts in the Moro Zone, which is extremely effective on humans. My poison causes your body to weaken, and too much of my poison could kill you!"
As Nest stands over Unknown, they both hear a voice from the forest.
"Why don't you just shut the hell up, you creepy weirdo?"
Kage finally arrives at Nest's camp and wastes no time. Kage quickly kicks Nest in the face to send him flying away from Unknown.
"Are you alright, Unknown?
"Yeah, I'm fine, but you know this isn't an anime, right? Waiting until the last second to save a friend isn't cool."
"Ha, come on, Unknown, you know I wouldn't do that to you. It's just that I had a hard time finding this camp, but I'm here now, so let me know the situation.
"Right!"
Unknown gets up off the ground, pulls Nest's blade out of his stomach, and throws it on the floor.
"That skinny bastard right there is the guy who's been kidnapping kids with the potential to become OGI users, and not only that, but in the tent in the middle of this camp, he's already killed half of the missing kids."
"What? So this dude is just a sick bastardad!"
"Haha, I see both of you two dumbasses have weak stomachs, which explains why you're so stuck on me killing those kids."
"Shut the hell up! I'm done listening to you speak! Come on, Unknown, let's beat this guy down and get the rest of the children out of here."
"Right, I've got your back, but we've got to watch out. This guy was babbling on earlier about something called a level-one technique called accelerate, and with that, he's somehow able to move so fast it looks like he's teleporting."
"huh?"
"Yeah, I was confused too, but while fighting him, I figured it out by hugging him tightly so I could better sense the flow of his OGI. While hugging him, I realized that when he activates level one, he focuses 85% of his OGI into his legs instead of letting it flow throughout his entire body like usual, causing him to be able to move way faster than usual."
"Wow, that must take a lot of focus to do. Wait, Unknown, did you say it's almost like he's teleporting?"
"Yeah, it sounds familiar, doesn't it?"
"Yeah, that must be how Mr.Mink gets around so fast."
As Kage and Unknown speak, Nest vanishes, reappears behind them, and exclaims, "Good job! You figured it out, but what good will that do for you?"
Nest pulls out two curved blades and attempts to cut down both Kage and Unknown.
Kage and Unknown jump out of the way of his attack.
"Kage, watch out; his blades are poison-tipped."
"Right, in that case, don't you think you should rest? You've already been stabbed a few times."
"No, these stab wounds are nothing. Let's just take this creep down!"
Unknown rushes Nest head-on without hesitation, but then Nest vanishes and reappears behind him. Before Nest could make a move on Unknown, Kage hit Nest with three energy beams, causing him to fall to the ground. Nest once again disappears, which causes Kage and Unknown to start looking around but can't seem to find Nest. Nest starts to run around Kage and Unknown so fast that it's almost like they're in a tornado.
"Damn it, Unknown, he keeps using that accelerate technique."
"I know, but I still have no idea how to deal with his speed."
"Wait, I think I got it."
"Really?"
"To use that accelerate technique, he needs to run right, so knowing that I have a plan, just trust me. On my signal, jump up as high as you can."
"Ok, I trust you; let's do it."
As Nest runs around Kage and Unknown, he screams, "I bet you regret not minding your business now!" Now you will die!"
Nest stops running around them and goes in for an attack on Kage.
"Unknown now!"
"Right!"
On Kages signal, Unknown jumps as high as he can. Now with Unknown in the air and Nest coming at him, Kage smirks.
"Perfect! energy manipulation: energy cutter!"
Kage sends out multiple energy slices in all directions. Nest gets hit by multiple energy slices and starts to bleed from his multiple cuts. Nest gets back up and remarks, "Oh, I see, that's how you're playing."
As Nest speaks, Unknown comes down from the sky and slams his foot into Nest's head.
"Good job, Unknown; now let's finish him so we can save those kids."
"Shut the hell up! You damn kids think you can just walk in here and ruin my promotion! Fuck you, I'll make sure both of you stop breathing."
Nest gets up off the ground, full of rage, and starts screaming at the top of his lungs.
"Burgus, get your ass out here right now!"
Kage and Unknown look at each other in confusion.
"Unknown Who the hell is Burgus? Is that another enemy?"
"How am I supposed to know?"
"Goddamn it, Burgus, didn't I tell you to come out here and help me?"
The ground suddenly starts to shake so hard that the two boys feet leave the ground for a moment. Kage and Unknown look over to see where the shaking is coming from. They look over and realize the shaking is coming from a tent on the far right side of the camp. The tent gets ripped open from the inside, and the person who comes out of the tent is a dark-skinned man made out of pure muscle at the height of 9'3 wearing giant clothing.
Kage and Unknown look in shock as Burgus walks to Nest.
"What the hell, he's huge!"
"Unknown, you're telling me you didn't notice this guy the entire time you were here."
"No, I didn't look in that tent. I'm guessing this is Nest's secret weapon."
"Haha, don't be scared, children; this is just my best buddy Burgus, a master of the flex technique."
"Shit another level one technique; watch out, Kage, this could get b—"
"Ahh-hha!"
Before Unknown could finish his sentence, he got distracted by a loud yawn from Burgus.
"I want blood!"
"Oh, you do? Good Burgus! Now, Burgus, kill the one in the mask, and I'll kill the one with the weird shirt."
"Hey, my shirt is not weird. He's the greatest artist of all ti—!"
Before Kage could finish his sentence, his face turned into shock as Burgus appeared in front of Unknown and kicked him so hard that he went flying deep into Grava Forest.
"Unknown!"
