Rain with a full body armor made from vine fighting against a man. He recognizes the man is named Kaeda Moori, victim number 114. He was surprised when he found out the man's identity.
But the most mind-blowing aspect is according to the information, he read Kaeda Moori was an E-rank civilian, He works as a cleaner inside the mine. He was astonished when he found a cleaner job is needed for this world.
With curiosity, he inquired and found the job of cleaner was required because of the mine's narrow tunnel. But the most surprising fact is how he is here and fighting with him. According to the guard force's record, his body is burned by his family members.
Then, who is real the one Rain is fighting or the one already burned to ashes? Who is the real Kaeda?
Rain blocks a punch from Kaeda with his left hand and tries to attack with his sword in his right hand.
But Kaeda's hair grows longer and blocks his sword. Every time he attacks this is blocked by Kaeda's hair. He and Kaeda are unable to do anything to each other.
Rain starts thinking again about Kaeda and how he can display a quasi-C-rank strength. Around two months ago he was an E-rank civilian.
He can conclude from the stitches on Kaeda's body and no communication from Kaeda, that someone has transformed his body.
Kaeda's hair is harder than the average D-rank metal which does not make him conclude Kaeda is transformed by someone as Rain also can control his hair to do that only he cannot make it as hard as Kaeda's hair.
Rain notices the lifeless eyes with no emotion behind them which further confirms his finding. But, who can transform a civilian in two months into the strength of a quasi-C-rank genetic warrior?
In his mind, he starts thinking of who could do this and the first name that comes to the forefront of his mind is Francis. Rain shakes his head in denial, Francis cannot be the one behind this as one month ago his clones were destroyed.
And now Lord Martin advanced to A-rank, Francis would not one to make another A-rank enemy. With his enemies of A-rank already more than fingers in both hands.
Rain's fight with Kaeda entered a stalemate for the past half an hour, so he takes a glance where Helen is fighting against two. He also recognizes them as Victim No. 87 Daniel Micheal and Victim No. 157 Shuziki Iizuka. Both when they committed suicide and were E-rank civilians.
Helen suppresses both, as he spots multiple injuries on them. Seeing this, Rain relaxes. After Helen kills her two enemies, she will help him kill Kaeda. With no worries, Rain does not try to kill Kaeda but maintains the stalemate.
But the world does not follow his wishes, as he notices the weird energy around him starts to stir then the energy rushes into Kaeda's body. Rain has to step back as the aura from Kaeda's body increases and advances to the beginning C-rank.
And he also feels another two C-rank aura. He does not have to look to know who they are. He is afraid to remove his eyes from Kaeda as he watches his right hand change into beast hands with claws and his legs from the hip change into Horse's legs.
Rain swallows hard and without waiting for the transform Kaeda to make his move, he attacks with rain rule around his body making his movement faster and sharp rule around his sword to increase his attack.
But it does not matter, after landing the first hit, he flew back after receiving Kaeda's punch on his chest. The life vine armor failed to protect him as he felt pain in his chest after the punch pierced the life armor hitting directly on his chest.
The punch's force makes him fly out to the edge of the clearing his back crashing into a tree. Even if Life Vine armor absorbed most of the power of the punch but still flew back. Rain could have held his ground but he did not. He wanted to create a distance from Kaeda.
Because after experiencing the power of Kaeda's punch, he does not think, he can fight where he can exchange blows with Kaeda. He has to fight smart and fast so that he does not get hit by Kaeda.
Rain hears the tree he crashed snap and lands beside him. He notices Kaeda vanish from his spot and his eyes find it difficult to track him. But he notices the footprints on the ground and is coming toward him. This happens all in two seconds, Rain's sword falls to the ground as a shield forms in front of him.
He flies back again, this time with the sound of his bones breaking and he crashes into multiple trees breaking them. Before he stops, his bones are all healed and Rain quickly forms the shield again.
But the result is the same, Rain flies back again breaking multiple trees before he stops. Kaeda cannot control his power and Rain distances himself from the power of Kaeda's punch every time, he does not receive injuries where his self-healing power finds it difficult to heal his injuries and takes more than a second to heal.
This happens multiple times that Rain finds himself not landing against a tree but on the ground. He finds he is in another clearing and notices two people fighting, One is another transformed victim and the other is Siobhan.
Rain then notices Kaeda turning his head toward Siobhan. Rain shouts in instinct," Siobhan watch out, as he runs toward her." But he watches as Kaeda comes crashing out of the forest and lands a punch on Siobhan.
Rain watches and hears in horror as Siobhan crashes into a tree on the edge of the clearing like a doll and he hears the sound of bones breaking. He watches in disbelief at her bloodied figure.
Overcome by a fit of sudden, unthinking madness, Rain lashed out at Kaeda, only to be struck first by Kaeda and then by a second transformed victim; however, despite the blows, Rain managed to stand his ground this time.
He attacked them without thinking about his injuries which healed in a couple of seconds but consumed his genetic energy rapidly. When his soul chip starts ringing an alarm his genetic energy falls below 40%.
He cools down and gets out of his rage, he wants to create distance from them but he cannot. Both attack him without giving him any chance to escape. Rain can see his downfall, so knowing he is going to die, he controls the rules of rain and sharp to merge.
His right wrist bleed holding another sword because the two rules meet that palace. The injuries from the transformed victims and his self-inflicted injuries speed up the consumption of his genetic energy.
To slow down his genetic energy consumption he controls his self-healing power only healing life-threatening and that makes his movement difficult. As his genetic energy falls below 30% his sword lands on the neck of the transform victim with quasi-C-rank strength.
His sword with the combination of both Sharp and Rain rules severed the head from his body. And his ribs broke from Kaeda's punch. Rain coughs out blood but a smile remains on his face as he kills one transformed victim.
He can die with some piece on his mind, as he will not die ultimately. Only his body in the radiation world will die his two clones will remain in two different worlds. They will be the final clones as the soul of this body only can enter the black spirit ocean.
The reason, the two clones are his thoughts taking over the two clones's bodies. Only this body contains his soul which is reborn into this world. He will be never able to know the power behind being reborn in this world and getting the ability to the world of souls.
As Rain gets hit by Kaeda's punch again this time on his face even with Life Vine armor his jaw breaks. He flies like a rag on the ground. He did not try to get up because he was going to die anyway now or a minute later it did not matter.
He hears Kaeda's footsteps coming near him but then suddenly his mind blanks and his breathing stops because of the sudden pressure. He raises his head in difficulty as he watches a crack appear in the clearing.
From the crack, a man comes out who Rain recognizes. Rain did not meet him but saw his portrait. The portrait was of Lord Martin.
He watches as Lord Martin walks toward Siobhan feeds her pill and then vanishes. Lord Martin did not for a moment glance at Rain but He knew Lord Martin noticed him. A blue color pill fell on Rain's palm.
And Kaeda turns into a diamond statue. Rain without any concern ate the pill because if Lord Martin wanted to harm him. He does need to give him a harmful pill but turn him into another diamond statue without any glance at him.
He feels his genetic energy return to 100% and automatically purifies itself reaching a 50% state of his genetic energy after the thunderstorm domain. He quickly stands up and runs toward Siobhan and finds She is healed and her chest is moving up and down.
Rain sighs in relief as he kneels. His feelings toward Siobhan were contradictory, he thought the affection he felt toward her was not his own but the affection before his memory awakened.
So, around two months passed and Siobhan has shown that she is also interested in him. But because of the contradictory feeling he did not take one step forward.
And thinking she died and his impending death a few moments ago gave him a new perspective. He notices Siobhan's eyelid fluttering open.
She sees his face hovering above her with worry, and she speaks," Rain what happened?" before Rain can answer, he notices Siobhan's confused face come into realization as she stands up and looks at the clearing. Find a body and its head separated and a body encased in a huge diamond.
Rain answers before she can ask," I killed the one with its head separated and the other one was done by Lord Martin."
Rain follows her and stands up. Siobhan froze when heard Lord Martin's name from Rain's mouth. She says," Lord Martin arrived in the domain and saved me."
Rain nods," Lord Martin also save me." and he walks toward Kaeda encased in a diamond. Rain laid a hand on the diamond finding it solid. Lord Martin can turn energy into material form.
Rain turns to look at Siobhan standing with a thoughtful look on her face. He calls out," Siobhan."
Siobhan wakes up from her confused state and replies," Ugh."
Rain opened his mouth to ask the reason behind her thoughtful expression but he noticed the weird energy stirring and gathering at the center of the clearing.
He and Siobhan alerted and an Ice shield formed on Siobhan's left hand and around Rain Vine emerged forming a full body armor.
But no enemies are created, instead a domain gate forms. And a voice sounded Rain's mind got out of the domain from the domain gate.
Rain looks at Siobhan from her facial expression, He figures she receives the same message but he wants to confirm it.
He asks," Siobhan, Did you receive the message of getting out of the domain."
Siobhan nods," Yes."
Rain speaks," I will go out first." Rain wearing the armor walks into the domain gate. Out of the domain gate, he finds his team member with whom he enters the domain around him standing in the center of the town.
He turns back to see Siobhan walk out and some team members also walk out of the domain gate. But before the C-rank can come out the domain gate closes.
Rain hears the discussions of someone controlling the weird domain, and worries of the C-rank inside the domain.
Rain to let their mind rest speaks informing them," Lord Martin had entered the domain."
