[Third Person POV]
Ryujin kept running while carrying Akio and Emily on his shoulder. Ciel,Anna and Alice were also with him.
Chelus was fast. It was destroying everything in its way. The good thing was that even if the parking area collapsed the mall would be fine but Ryujin had to get out of here as soon as possible.
Ryujin was behind Ciel and the others. He was carrying two people. Ciel looked back. She was worried about him and wanted to help.
"Ryujin, let me carry one of them."
Ryujin shook his head. He was perfectly fine and Kairos would save him in any situation.
"Just focus on running Ciel."
As they were saying that, the spikes on Chelus started to grow. The spikes detached from its body and were levitating.
One of the spikes was fired straight at Ryujin.
Anna tried casting a magic barrier while Ciel tried to block it with her sword.
"I said focus on running." Ryujin camly said to them. He was not worried about Chelus.
His goal was to save these guys. Killing Chelus came later on.
The spike got near Ryujin. Once it was near Ryujin it was completely erased.
Evrybody knew Ryujin could erase things but not to this extent. He was easily erasing an attack from a demon who was superior in rank.
Akio felt his body becoming light. He looked at Ryujin and saw a magic circle in his hand. Ryujin was healing Akio. Blood was coming out from his nose but he still casted the spell.
Akio clenched his fist. He felt ashamed of himself. He couldn't do anything.
'How can someone be this kind ?'
Chelus fired each spike towards Ryujin but none of them reached Ryujin. It was only targeting Ryujin as he was the one who destroyed its eye.
Chelus started running even faster. It was so close that if it swung its claw then the others would be blown apart.
"Why is a turtle so fuck*ng fast?" Ryujin shouted while running.
Everybody was shocked to hear Ryujin curse in this moment.
"Hey Akio can run now?"
"Yeah! I feel strength in my body coming back."
"Im gonna throw you so be ready."
"What! Throw me-"
Akio couldn't even finish his sentence. Ryujin grabbed the clothes on Akio's back and yeeted him.
Akio barely landed on his feet. He also started running.
Ryujin then looked at Ciel and said
"Hey Ciel, catch"
He then threw Emily towards Ciel.
Emily was still unconsious. Ciel grabbed Emily.
Ryujin stopped running. Chelus was after him so, he had to act as a distraction.
"Ryujin!" Akio shouted.
"I will distract it just keep on running. Don't look back."
As they were saying that Chelus was already close to Ryujin. It opened its mouth and tried to eat Ryujin.
'Stupid ass turtle.'
Ryujin dodged the bite and moved his body. He then moved his arm and made a cut to its other remaining eye.
"Shrieeekk!" Chelus started screaming. Everyone had to block their ears so their eardrums would not burst.
Ryujin saw his chance. He jumped at Chelus head. He landed on the middle of its forehead. He extended his hand closer to the core and erased it.
He couldn't erase all of it as only some part of it was within Kairos range but significant damage was done.
Chelus stopped screaming and collapsed. Ciel and others looked back and stopped in their tracks.
They couldn't believe what they had just seen. An inferior rank killing a higher rank was never heard of.
Ryujin sixth sense told him that this was not over. He again started running towards them and said" Its not over just keep running."
Soon the shell of Chelus opened. The spike on its back started to wriggle.
The spikes started to grow and each spike was looking like a human.
The humanoid monsters didn't have eyes nor mouth. It had two hands and four legs .
Akio and others were afraid. Their whole body was about to freeze seeing the inhumane creatures.
"That looks worse than my morning poop."
Ryujin said that while making a disgusted face.
The others looked at Ryujin.
Ryujin shook his head and said" Its true."
"Pftt" Alice was the first one to laugh.
Everybody was giggling at some point execpt Ryujin.
Ciel couldn't comprehend this situation. They were running from a monster while making poop jokes.
Ryujin looked at the monsters. He knew for a fact that if they go out then this monsters would wreak havock.
He had to kill them inside this area.
He looked at Anna and said
" Anna, Can you cast a magic barrier?"
Anna nodded.
"Surround the monsters with your barrier."
She then started chanting. The monster were surrounded by the barrier. However the top part of the barrier was open. The monsters tried to climb out of the barrier
He looked at Ciel.
"Ciel freeze them in place"
Ciel casted her ice magic and froze the monsters feet. The monsters couldn't climb out now.
"Alice fire your arrows above the magic barrier."
Alice turned around and started firing her arrows. The arrows entered from the top of the barrier and started hitting the monsters. The strength behind the arrows was not enough to kill the monsters but it was definetly damaging them.
Akio was also waiting for Ryujin to give him any instruction. He looked At Ryujin.
Ryujin was looking above and was smiling.
' Looks like he went all out.'
******
Inside the mall,the heroes and villians were fighting. There were approximately fifty villians. Dex was standing and looking at the fight.
His plan was to summon a demon and attack the mall. Then let the demon go havock on the city.
However, none of this plan was working. Somehow more than hundred of heros were guarding the mall.
The demon that they summoned was not even seen. The guards were not responding to his call.
Dex was in big trouble. If he didn't win this then he would have to face punishment worse than death.
Dex decided to join the battle. He took a majin pill. His whole body was turning red. His nails were growing sharper and he had wings on his back.
He was about to attack one of the heroes. He was about to launch and attack but he soon felt an attack coming towards him.
He tried to block the attack but his hands were cut off.
"Arghhh!" Dex screamed. He looked infront and saw a young man holding a spear. His purple eyes were staring at Dex.
Dex felt chills over his whole body. His arm regenerated.He looked closely at the mans shirt. He saw a familiar logo. It was the Atropis.
Dex recognized that man. It was Lucas Aldegar.
Dex scuffed at Lucas and said
"You dare cut my hand off."
Lucas pointed his spear at Dex.
"Dont worry I will cut your throat as well."
Dex knew that he wouldn't be able to beat Lucas. He was A-rank and Lucas was S-rank. He had been boosted by the majin pill but still his chances of winning were low.
Dex still had to fight him. He would rather die fighting Lucas than die at the hands of the Orien.
However Dex still wondered. How did somone foil their plan so perfectly?They had been working on this for two years and somone had destroyed their plan in mere two minutes.
Dex though to himself
'Who ever did this is a unfathomable monster.'
