Chapter 9 - Chapter 9

A commentator was on the street, there were two criminals tied up and in front of them was Elementary, the class S heroine.

The commentator approaches Elementary — "Elementary, do you mind if we do a little interview with you?"

Elementary had a big smile — "Of course, I'm always willing to do whatever it takes for those people who believe in me."

Commenter — "You may know this, but the crime rate has been dropping by 70 percent since she became an S-class heroine 6 years ago, what do you think?"

Elementary — "I say it is a great achievement, but we still have a lot of work to do, I know, many of you have problems, Unfortunately I cannot solve all the problems, but as long as I am here I promise to keep this city under control"

Elementary shows a confident smile.

A large snake comes out from below, and lands in the middle of the city.

Elementary looked at the camera — "I have to take care of this"

Elementary summoned an air wave and started flying.

The commentator spoke - "You heard it, Elementary will have everything in control"

Many people were calming down, it's true Elementary can handle it, but there was one who panicked.

Jimmy — "OMG, we only have the shadow assassin, but it's daytime, he's not at full power!!... and then there's Elementary... We're screwed!!

Jimmy had no faith in Elementary, if it were an S class that earned it by reputation it would be fine, but if it is a real S class, with real power then it would be screwed, now Victor who is an SS class villain, Elementary would die and would upset a lot of things, he needs to keep things going before Light arrives.

The mime would be strong enough to supply him momentarily, of course it would not defeat Victor, but at least it would contain the damage better.

Elementary arrived and in a moment began to freeze the giant snake, the snake with a slight movement managed to break the ice, pushing Elementary away.

The clouds surrounded the giant snake and in a second a giant lightning struck, this scene was seen throughout the city, but this only made the snake agitate, and the destruction will only get bigger.

The snake only continues to advance, this made the snake begin to destroy, meanwhile Victor, who was inside a large black mass, was scared, he did not understand anything, the only thing he could do was run.

Elementary tried to use more techniques, but knew nothing would work, so he pressed his watch — "Here Elementary, I need backup."

The clock — "Reinforcements are on the way"

Elementary couldn't understand where that thing came from, this was out of her control, she was an S class heroine, she has to handle this matter.

I look closely at this snake, it was not a conventional snake, that is, it was not a giant reptile, it was a dark mass, it was almost as if you were the shadows of the shadow killer.

Elementary — "This is made of the same thing that the shadow assassin uses"

Elementary noticed that a slight smoke was coming out of the snake's body, it was imperceptible and I noticed it, I noticed how it absorbed the shadows of its surroundings and put it together.

Elementary — "Absorbing the shadow like that is against all the rules, even the shadow assassin doesn't have that ability"

It was daytime, so he was weak...why would he depend on the shadow assassin, she is an S-class hero, he is an A-class hero, she must take charge.

Meanwhile, the Shadow Assassin watched the scene from afar.

A large shadow was cast behind him that was 4 times bigger than him.

The Shadow Assassin — "Come on old friend, let's end the threat"

The great shadow that was behind the shadow killer swallows the shadow killer and quickly moves his shadow to shadow, it seemed that his arrival was complicated, after all they were not in the night itself

The shadow assassin was in front of the snake and with a jump he entered the snake, a serious mistake.

If I could give a similar sensation, it would be like that of a child who goes into a dryer and then they turn on the machine, even if the shadow killer was protected, the pain would be immense.

The shadow assassin was thrown suddenly towards a wall, but before he crashed, a shadow materialized behind him and obtained a texture similar to that of the snake, cushioning his impact.

Still, the pain was felt, the shadow assassin could barely get up.

Everyone who saw that scene on television was confused.

Jimmy was worried — "We're screwed, the only one who can genuinely do anything is down."

Veronica looked at Jimmy — "He's really so strong."

Jimmy — "Listen to me carefully, he is the last person in this city you want to face, an example in a fight between him and Edwin would be Edwin who would lose them.

Verónica was surprised — "It doesn't matter, would you mind leaving your phone, we are 1 block from my house"

Jimmy put his phone away, there they saw several officers who cordoned off the area.

Officer — "This is a restricted area"

Veronica — "Fuck you Mike"

[Mike, Monarch, S class]

Mike — "This is the area"

Veronica simply walked through the cordoned off area.

Jimmy — "I've never understood why everyone disowns you"

Jimmy simply walked through the cordoned off area.

Both Jimmy and Veronica arrived at where the snake came from.

There were many people moving material and equipment, while there were people disguised as agents, there were even people who were genuinely real officers, but they were Monarch spies.

At that moment they found Edwin, his right arm was broken, but other than that it didn't seem like he had anything else.

Edwin looked at Veronica — "I'm sorry, Victor escaped in my presence."

Verónica — "What happened"

Edwin — "It all started about 10 minutes ago"

Edwin was doing paperwork, he watched as Victor closed his eyes and squeezed them shut.

Edwin just continues with the paperwork.

Although I noticed something, the shadow of the paper started to move in a strange way and is shifting.

Edwin looked at Victor and in a second the shadows were beginning to cover Victor.

Edwin extends his hands and begins to apply pressure on Victor.

The shadows expand and grab Edwin's hand, he felt like a bite broke his arm, and then the darkness will begin to expand.

When Edwin realized he could be crushed so he didn't hesitate, he grabbed his phone with his left hand and with a determined voice — "Code red, code red"

A voice speaks, it was Mike's - "What's the emergency?"

Edwin — "Fuck you Mike, if I tell you it's an emergency, you'll come"

Edwin with his other hand and with a wave repels the darkness that had his right hand, Edwin leaves behind quickly.

Edwin — "Now we are moving, don't worry Jimmy, when we get settled I will tell you the location, Veronica, group up with the evidence collection team"

Edwin looks at Jimmy one last time — "Come back, not to be rude, but this is Monarch's responsibility, I hope next time we talk in less worrying situations"

Edwin leaves

Verónica just sighed — "Well, I think we're saying goodbye for today... but don't be confused, I haven't given up on Victor yet."

Veronica knew deep down that she couldn't do anything in this situation, but she knew that eventually she would see him again.

Jimmy just left and wondered what he could do, at that moment he remembered something.

He took out his cell phone and started watching the broadcast, he looked at how many Class A Heroes were gathered to stop the giant snake but they couldn't.

Jimmy recognizes almost all the heroes, most of them were no longer active in the future, or were dead in their work, it seemed that they were scared, they had not encountered something of such caliber.

Jimmy — "Rookies"

At that moment I noticed that the snake was leaving randomly, it was chaos, but it had no intention of attacking anyone.

If it were the old Victor, he would launch attacks left and right, especially with the heroes, he was currently in no condition to fight.

He could only be a spectator, his power only allows him to infiltrate, but does not allow him to make bold reactions.

I watch as Elementary began to cordon off the area, they were trying to maintain control of the scene, meanwhile the shadow assassin was on top of a building, looking at everything from another angle.

Elementary — "Maybe you want to help instead of standing still"

...

The shadow assassin just watched the scene.

Shadow Killer — "You Can't See It"

Elementary just put on a serious face — "I hate it when people get like that, get straight to the point."

Shadow Killer — "Even though it's the eyes of a snake, I can see the fear, maybe it's a user who just woke up, he must be scared"

Elementary looked at the snake's eyes, she looked at him, she looked at how he looked in all directions, but he could see the nervousness, he didn't look directly at her, but it was obvious that he was afraid.

Elementary pursed his lips — "I see, he means no harm."

A large shadow appears and drops a speaker, the shadow killer grabs it, then offers it to Elementary

Elementary confused — "You're the one who discovered him, why aren't you the one who talks to him"

Shadow Assassin — "I am not a person who inspires, I am not a person who is capable of giving confidence, nor do I trust myself, however you, your image is in the city, you are a guardian angel that protects everyone in the light of day... I am the devil who punishes sinners in the darkness itself."

Elementary grabbed the speaker

The shadow assassin is covered in darkness and leaves quickly, at one point not even Elementary could see him anymore.

The snake was screaming, Victor was talking, he wanted to say I'm sorry, he didn't want this, he wanted to be heard, he wanted his family, all this darkness scared him, he couldn't understand it, maybe these are the consequences of his past, he was a horrible person

Victor was losing himself, he was condemned to kill all the people he loved, he was alone.

At that moment I heard an angelic voice — "Don't be afraid."

At that moment Victor opens his eyes, and the snake looks at Elementary.

The cameras focus on her.

Elementary began to take some steps — "I'm so sorry, I assumed several things and started attacking you, I didn't realize you were a victim!?"

People started listening and couldn't believe what Elementary was saying, obviously he was the monster, how could Elementary say that, the destruction was clear, social media exploded.

Elementary continues with his words, ignoring all this — "I know you're afraid, you don't want to hurt the people you care about, you have great power, but you don't want to hurt the people you care about!!"

The snake simply looked at Elementary, it opened its mouth and only closed it, it was as if it wanted to speak, but couldn't.

Elementary gets close enough and touches the big shadow that covered the snake — "I won't be hypocritical, I don't know what will happen, but I swear by my name that I will help you, I will help you and your entire family, you are not alone!!"

At that moment the snake opens its eyes and puts its head up, and gave a huge scream, this scared everyone who was on their guard, but slowly the snake is starting to get smaller and smaller, to the point where that people began to let their guard down.

The shadows escaped and caused them to reach various places, which caused the structures to recover their shadows.

At one point the snake became as small as the size of a car and from there a human figure began to appear.

It was Victor, he was kneeling and at that moment he started crying.

He didn't want to do so much harm and at that moment he felt a hand on his head.

Elementary — "Everything will be fine now"

Victoria cried harder.

Social networks were impressed by such a scene, but the most impressed was Jimmy.

Jimmy simply put away his cell phone.

Jimmy — *Maybe I underestimated Elementary*

Jimmy was going to leave, but he noticed a blue lightning bolt running across the sky and Jimmy opened his eyes, quickly took out his cell phone and resumed the broadcast.

At that moment Elementary began to have many messages of support, it was really incredible how hypocritical social networks can be, but Elementary stopped and looked up.

A large figure appears, he had an elegant suit, white hair and blue eyes, but what could be seen was a large lightning bolt that was in his hands.

[Sebastian, Hero Association, S Rank]

[Hidden ability]

[Zeus]

He could tell that he had his gaze on Victor, Elementary stood in front of him.
