Chereads / Ominous Dusk!!! / Chapter 6 - Relentlessness

Chapter 6 - Relentlessness

All twelve GE groups start to appear in the morning sky as the sun shines, gazing down at large buildings and countless living beings. The town's name is Tomanshiki. They were in the air, and their black robes blew in the wind. Hiro touches his head after feeling the pain when he looks into the past to see the enemy's appearance yesterday. One of the GE Group #5 starts to whisper, 'This is the nearest town where the enemy should come. We're guessing that he should be here, even though we don't know his location.' Another GE Group member smirks and whispers, 'I hope I face this worthy opponent and fight until the bitter end, but there are things that stand in the way of our fight... which is true, brother.' They separate themselves to find the enemy with long black hair, a brown hat, wearing a soldier uniform, and having yellow eyes... as they go to find him.

#9 of the GE group starts to lift her hand and use her psychic abilities to lift a huge building up in the air, while everyone down below is in shock. One of them starts running and screams, "Call the Holy saints!" As #9 lifts the building, she starts throwing it across other buildings, with people still inside. This creates a huge explosion after the building crashes into another one. Feeling sweaty, she lifts up her black robe hoodie and smirks, saying, "I don't know why we are doing this, but I guess it's a job that needs to be done, I guess."

Meanwhile, other members of the GE Group start to appear. #6 is on the ground, surrounded by a ton of individuals who are running from the destruction caused by #9. #6 sees this and says, "Good grief," but their surprise grows when they see five holy saints appear with their spears. They witness the mass of people running and the huge destruction right in front of them, and they whisper, "We already had this yesterday, and now today..."

The holy saints scream and try to charge at #6, but #6 manages to dodge each of their attacks. However, confusion sets in as the holy saints' arms seem to lose control over their spears, and they start stabbing themselves in the torso. #6 completes the action and says, "Honorable."

Meanwhile, people keep running while #6 lifts their right hand, positioning themselves in front of the crowd. #6 commands, "Obey me now!" As a result, the people start to stop and turn around, running towards #6's direction, passing by them and running towards where #9 is still throwing a bunch of buildings, hoping to perish with them.

As the Holy Saints appear, spreading out across hundreds of blocks, they separate from each other to face the GE groups. They are unaware of who these groups are. Seventy Holy Saints appear right behind #7, and as he turns around, he says, "I'm completely outnumbered... I guess I need some help." #7 starts to turn around completely and whispers, "Tank Master Multitudinous!" His body starts to replicate, creating more than one entity of himself. One of the Holy Saints feels shocked while gripping their spear. More and more clones begin to replicate, creating multiple entities of #7. #7 stops and claps his hands, giving off a confident smile. All of his clones have the same blood and power as him, as well as his speed and abilities. One of the clones says, "Let's get them!" The Holy Saints start to scream out as 120 #7 clones begin to attack. Each clone blocks the spears while transforming their own arms into weapons. By touching a spear, their arms turn into spears. This shocks the Holy Saints, and they whisper, "They can transform their limbs into spears?!" One of the Holy Saints dies, while #7 stands on a destroyed building caused by #6 and says, "Yeah, I can do that, and we can do it too. Even my clones can multiply themselves without my intervention." One of the Holy Saints points at #7 and says, "Let's attack him since he is the main enemy controlling these self-made enemies!" #7 whispers, "Oh, brother.

As the Holy Saints were overpowering the clones of #7, #7, who was on top of the building, started saying, "Oh my, you guys are actually taking over..." One of the Holy Saints tried to come up to the building where #7 was, but #7 quickly got up, turned his hand into a spear, and cut off one of the Holy Saint's neck. The Holy Saints who were fighting the clones started saying, "We have good experience with our own spears, so we will obviously win this battle!" #7 turned around and said, "Okay, I guess my clones will just keep multiplying even more... let's see if you guys can run out of stamina and lose." This overwhelmed the Holy Saints as they watched the clones continue to multiply even more than before. The clones held two spears in their arms and gave off a smirk as they replicated. Meanwhile, #7 smirked and raised his hand, saying, "How about facing 1000 of myself?" This shocked the Holy Saints, making them sweat as they started to attack.

As #4 starts to lift up his finger and shouts, "Hollow Light!" he shoots it. The attack hits multiple Holy Saints and buildings, causing them to collapse, and one of the Holy Saints dies. #4 starts to whisper, "Can't believe we're bullying the weak again. It seems very fun..." Meanwhile, a Holy Saint holds up two spears and throws them at high speeds, almost reaching lightning speeds. #4 quickly reacts, dodging the spears from behind, grabbing one and throwing it back at the Holy Saint with such force that it burns through the Holy Saint's armor, almost creating a hole in its torso. Another Holy Saint starts to attack #4 while he is fighting the Holy Saints from behind. #4 lifts up his hand and shoots another Hollow Light between their heads, causing them to momentarily pause. #4 turns around and says, "These Hollow Lights could never be blocked like that. They burn at a molecular level..." This shocks the Holy Saints, but they continue fighting because no one can burn away their spirit, even when they fight with everything they've got.

#2 balls up his fist and says, "You all aren't worthy opponents. You simply aren't strong enough to beat me. What I'm looking for is the strongest, the symbol of strength." A Holy Saint whispers to herself, "He defeated all 300 of us in mere seconds, and his movements are incredibly fast." She throws a spear at #2, but he grabs it and breaks it. She feels shocked and says, "I expected that wouldn't work." They are then blasted by #2's punch. Another Holy Saint starts speaking loudly into a microphone, saying, "We need more comrades here. There's a powerful guy who stands about two meters tall and wears a black robe-" but before he can finish speaking, he gets punched as well, sending him flying into other buildings. #2 says, "These guys aren't worthy opponents. Maybe I should just continue searching for him and have a good fight against him." #2 turns around and starts walking away, leaving the Holy Saints shocked. One of the Holy Saints says, "Hey, where are you going? We're not done yet." #2 responds, "You guys aren't worthy to face me, but since you insist on getting in my way, I'll do this for you." The Holy Saints feel confused. #2 turns around and screams, "Ultimate Obliteration Sneeze!" as he blows his sneeze at them, sending them flying across buildings and even causing destruction miles away.

The Holy Saints were climbing onto a building and realized they were facing a powerful threat. #10 lifts her hand to her head and says, "Hey, there's no point in hitting me with spears if you can't even kill me." She then lifts her hand and points it at one of the Holy Saints, absorbing energy from the man's body and gaining even more strength. Meanwhile, Hiro, who is #8, is sitting by a building about six blocks away. Hiro screams out to #10 and says, "Are you sure, Miss Yuuna?" She smirks and replies, "No, it's fine. Just sit there. I mean, your head isn't fully healed." One of the Holy Saints tries to stab her in the head, but she turns around and says, "I already said I can't die!" She kicks the Holy Saint and blasts him away with an energy blast that affects their inner body, their soul. The Holy Saint falls to the ground, and another Holy Saint turns to the corpse, noticing no limbs or injuries. They turn around and ask, "What did you do to him?" Yuuna responds, "I erased his inner body with a powerful blast to the torso. Ignore his physical form." One of the Holy Saints whispers, "How can we defeat her? She's immortal..." Suddenly, the ground shakes from a distant powerful punch, shocking Yuuna and Hiro. It was one of their members, #11, who delivered the punch. She smirks while doing so. One Holy Saint lifts up their spear and says to the surviving Holy Saints, "No matter how powerful they are, we are going to save the lives of others." They scream out in agreement, while the other Holy Saints whisper, "But it seems like we're being overwhelmed by them... these magic masters are truly evil, as we speak.

As each group of GE ravaged the town, plunging it into chaos, the Holy Saints found themselves in a losing state despite their experience with spears. The GE possessed supernatural abilities that surpassed the Holy Saints', leaving them at a disadvantage. They were desperately searching for Zanki Yoru.
