Chapter 23 - HUMANS

_Humans are annoying yet interesting .

They love but also hate.

They trust but also betray.

They save but also kill.

I don't have any purpose in this world ,I live how I want to live .

I'll kill anything that annoys me._

Neto flung the body of Micheal he held into the same building he came flying through,going for another ride.

He went after Richard.

Both brothers could only use their energy to protect their body.

They were merely rag dolls.

Catching up to Richard, who had begun running away, he kicked him at his legs, swerving his body to the right due to imbalance.

Neto then caught him by the cloth and threw him into the air.

Across the grass covered land, there were lamp stands,although broken some still stood.

Neto held onto the nearest one and pulled it out of the ground with ease ,and proceeded to smack Richard, who was still in the air with it.

The sound of breaking of bones could be heard.

Both bracelets chimed, meaning there would be medical help soon.

Neto walked calmly back to the girl with a doughnut in his hand .

He had to change back to his eating gloves.

The girl stared at him in shock ,the damage was insane.

"What?, want one?" Neto asked.

"Uh ,N-No. Thank you very much."

She was trying to be as respectful as possible and not be on his bad books.

Even if he wanted to force himself on her at the moment, there was no way she could stop him with such a difference in level.

'These ones must have been below the 100th rank ,I barely used half of my strength on them so as to not kill them.'

"Okay then."He began walking away whilst eating his bun

"Uh -uhm -sir?"

"Hm?"He answered, tilting his head to the side.

"Please, can I join your group for the moment? ,my other group members and I got separated."

"Then quit or something, leave me alone."

'Ouch ,this dude doesn't care about anything.'

---------------

"Whew,that one was tough."

"You know we have less than two months before meeting him, right?"

"Yea,can't wait."Zuri said, smiling covered in blood.

"Do you also remember that we are to kill him?"

"Well yeah ,but we aren't gonna do that, are we aniyah?"

"It's dependent on him ,if he is the same as before, we would have to kill him."Neo explained with a stoic expression.

"Danso, can you stop doing that and tell these PEOPLE that we are not killing neto."

Danso walked towards them ,two actually, both speaking simultaneously.

" { But it's not up to us ,it's pure orders.}"

One body faded into the air, leaving one remaining.

Aniyah floating in the air landed.

"I would rather not, but it is an order we must follow."

"The hell are you all being so flashy for ?

Want me to burn this place????"

"Uhm no ,calm down, my lady."

" I will just switch you with a rock in some random ocean."

"We both know you can't reach that far antenna head."

"Who are you calling antenna head you annoying feline?."

"FELINE?? Oh, now you've done it."

Thus began a cat and mouse chase or more like cat and ant.

"Why's she so angry at him? She IS a feline ,no?"

"Don't ask me ,i don't know what's going on in her head.

Neo has changed, tho .

I wonder how neto will be like now."

Aniyah cracked a smile, thinking about it.

"Oh? is that a smile? Didn't know female gorrilas could smile"

"What was that? Me a GORRILA??"

"Uhm,I apologise for my overstepping."

"Too late for that ."

Imagine a bird being called a gorrila ,a justified anger.

Both men were being chased by the women,running for their lives.

In the past few months, they had bonded a lot.

------------------

Past friends bonded, and Neto sat atop a roack in front of an enemy instead.

[Nekka Abadan]

[ < Rank 9> ]

"Do I know you?"

"You are unworthy of the position of number 5."

"Oh? and why is that?"

"You abuse your power on those weaker than you.

I will release you of your rank."

Neto tilted his head to the side.

"Release?"

Neto sat atop a jagged rock, his posture relaxed yet commanding, one leg crossed over the other as if the confrontation amuses him.

His head proceeded to rest lazily on his hand, but his piercing gaze locked onto nekka with a sharp, disdainful intensity.

His lips curled into a slight smirk, the air around him heavy.

"You can't defeat me," he declares, his voice cold and unyielding, each word slicing through the tension like a blade. "You're weak."

The contempt in his eyes is palpable.

"I know that ,but it won't stop me .

I like losing battles,makes one evolve."

Tilting his head to the side, neto squinted his eyes.

"You are interesting ."Neto said with a smile.

'It's a first for someone below my level to want to beat me.'

Neto hopped down the rock ,then stood staring at Nekka.

"Here I come."

With a dash, nekka came running.

He swung a solid kick, which neto blocked with his left arm .

Nekka did a back spin and kicked again .

Intending to block neto lifted his arm from the side.

A sudden impact came from the arm displacing his movement, and nekka's kick connected with his face.

Sending his face back a bit.

'Hm, a double impact?'

Tilting his head to the side, he was interested.

Kicking at neto's stomach, it was blocked with both hands.

He hopped up and used his knee against neto's face .

Intending to use his hands to block the second impact hit his hands again, sending them randomly .

The knee hit his jaw,and an elbow atop his head.

Both hit simultaneously .

Grabbing nikka by the cloth ,he flung him away.

"Hm,some kind of double hit attack.

It's slow tho ,if this is all you have, then you can not beat me."

"Hu-"

Suddenly, he was in front of nikka.

Grabbing nikka by the head ,he struck it with his knee.

His head was jerked back, and then neto grabbed his head again and bashed it into the ground.

Squatting beside his head, neto smiled.

"An average attack pattern,what was that ? Mauy Thai?

That's an interesting ability tho, what does it do? Reuse an attack that already landed?"

"_Hurk_" Nikka was sprawled on the floor ,spit coming out of his mouth while trying to catch his breath.

"Hm ,you done already? I didn't even use any energy."

-------------

What would happen if a missile was crafted with energy rather than the usual materials?

As forseen, only extreme blunt force or energy crafted weapons can damage the beasts.

A normal kitchen knife can not cut a beast.

All cold weapons were crafted with the energy crystals as a potent ingredient.

What if warheads were crafted with the same energy?

Well, it was tried , and it was unstable.

Every detonation using energy was crafted from energy, not with it as a sub element.

A bomb or missile becomes unstable with the addition of energy.

If it was something on a small scale like a grenade of some sort, it wouldn't matter.

These, on the other hand, were much worse , and the detonation may occur incorrectly.

The range was unmanageable, and survival was within a thousand mile radius is unsure.

It was kept to be a last resort ,some sort of final toss in.

For bullets, on the other hand

They worked well on them,crafting the bullets with energy crystals while expensive was possible.

One had to input their energy into the Gun while firing to cause damage.

----------------

Turning around, neto used his hand to block something that came hitting with sudden speed.

It dented through his defences and ripped his skin and spilt blood, although he used his energy to reinforce his hand.

A deafening bang resounded, spliting the air as it connected.

The projectile had stopped piercing.

He faced his palm at his face and stared ,along with his bleeding arm in the odd blueish red colour.

There was something.

A bullet that had been lightly crushed came falling out of the injury in his palm.

He then looked up and saw ,atop a building was a female carrying a gun.

"There is another?"

"She is my teammate providing me support in all my battles ,she wasn't meant to intervene."Nikka stood there,that damage wasn't something that would keep him down.

"Hm, i may have been wrong.

Maybe you aren't that interesting, after all .

You lot annoy me now."

_ A little bit of blood will do wonders ,will it not? _

Taking a good look at the girl .

Neto turned around and placed his palm on his face, which was bleeding.

He proceeded to drag his hand up whilst covering his face in blood .

A wide grin was shown with a blood covered face .

"Ya'll should have stayed in that hole where you crawled out from."

A deep and silent laugh echoed that sent shivers down their spine.

It was hollow while mocking them with his head bent backwards.

He laughed whilst covering his face with his bleeding hand looking like a life like horror.

He then stopped laughing, bringing his head to the face level of nikka, opening a space between the ring and middle finger.

A glint of blue could be seen.

Neto's eyes seemed to stare right into nikka's soul.

He then took his hand off his face and stared at his hand, dripping blood.

And muttered.

"I'll kill you."
