8 Play's Finale

A few minutes ago outside~

Currently, the five man team was outside looking at the enemy in despair, except for one man who seemed to express no emotions.

"Linda, Lucy, Adams GO to the back corner and watch our backs! Dave stand right in front of the door and watch my back!"

Jay started sending out orders, but no one cared that he was a newbie since everyone was so close to death at the moment.

Alas, the demonized didn't care and attacked as swift as lightning, charging forward like a tide. Jay pulled a short katana from his side just in time to block. Just as he was about to be hit, he slightly altered his position and leaned back in an almost undetectable move while releasing a slight fluctuation.

"BAM!"

"Putui."

Jay was violently sent flying back and hit the metal gate harshly, making him spit out a mouthful of blood. A small dent was left in the reinforced alloy door, proving how hard he hit the wall.

Jay was still holding the violently vibrating katana in his left hand while he slowly reached for the augmented revolver with his right. But his whole body seemed unsteady, and blood was constantly forming a puddle underneath him.

"JAMES!"

Recovering from her initial shock, Linda screamed as she was about to run towards him with tear-filled eyes.

"Bang, Bang, Bang..."

"Swoosh"

"Stay put and protect yourselves! I don't want any of you getting in my way!"

Jay yelled at Linda with a loud and strict voice. Almost at the same time, Adams took out his augmented rifle and accurately shot the charging demonized, stopping them momentarily. Adams's innate ability was one a low-tier reflex enhancing skill, but when used with hot-weapons, it was extremely accurate and lethal.

Lucy also quickly reacted and pulled Linda back. She already knows her master's plans, so although she doesn't understand it all and is pained to see him hurt, she still obeys and is protecting Linda.

Linda nods and uses her B-Grade innate skill of telekinesis to set up a barrier of energy to protect herself alongside Lucy and Adams.

Dave was soon covered in fur as he transformed into what looked like a bear-man.

Jay's blood-covered body started to walk towards the demonized unsteadily with a katana in his left hand and a revolver in the right.

Then suddenly, he dashes straight into the group and starts to attack rapidly.

Dave relied on his massive strength to keep those things away, but they just keep circling and wounding him.

Jay looked like a specialized expert with gun and blade. He dodged and shot back at every given interval. He was slashing when the demonized got too close. He seemed to be weaker, yet he seemed like an efficient killing machine, shocking not just those outside, but also the nobles inside looking at the screen.

Alas, although his technique and power are amazing, the demonized are faster and constantly tore and slashed at Jay. Dave was even worse and would be dead if not for Jay saving him multiple times.

The gruesome scene had Adams petrified as he desperately shot at the beast from the back while the girls had tear streams running down their faces. They were currently on dealing with half the demonized, but all three elites seemed to want to tear Jay and Dave as they only focused on them.

Demonized loved to play with their prey, so it wasn't until this moment that they started to use their destruction skill to finish them off finally.

"Pui"

Jay was currently half-kneeling on the ground with a bloody puddle underneath, while steam flowed around him from the intense fight and high body heat. His blue eyes were still bright and calm.

'Damn, even at this low-level demonized power is powerful and annoying.'

Jay thought as he looked at the shallow yet long scratch on his abdomen. There was currently a small fluctuation of purple-black destruction presently eating away at his skin.

"BAM!"

A loud explosion sounded, gaining his attention, and looking at the source; he let out a small, charming grin. Immediately after, he tells them to all go inside while 'protecting' the nobles. He also didn't forget to re-instruct Lucy to make sure everything flows smoothly.

Knowing that his plan is coming to an end, yet not there yet, he keeps 'dancing' with the demonized as both sides have multiple wounds already.

Most of them ran after the group, with only two elites 'dancing' with him though anyone would much rather take ten E-Rank solders over one D-Rank elite.

"BOOM!"

In the middle of a fight, while Jay was sliding back with both arms mangled and covering his chest, he hears another explosion followed immediately by Lucy's message.

"And the play has come to an end hehe."

Jay immediately forces his body to stop sliding back, and in doing so, the reinforced cement below him was forced to take the brunt of the momentum.

"Crack"

The floor beneath him instantly cracked and splintered by the sudden application of force. Jay smiles as an unusual amount of steam is released from his body; his wounds were healing at a visible rate. His breathing becomes completely normal compared to his previously haggard self.

Noticing that Jay was looking away in the opposite direction with his guard down, one demonized stupidly thought that this was its chance as it covered its claws in destruction essence.

"Swoosh"

Like a speeding bullet, it was less than five meters of Jay in an instant. The demonized looked happy since the weakling wasn't even looking back till this moment nad still had its' guard down.

Jay already noticed, but he had more important things to handle as he was sending new instructions to Lucy. He wanted to make sure everything was perfect for his little play.

Getting back to the demonized that was extremely close, Jay subtly looked towards its way with a gentle smile on his face.

The world froze, or at least that's what the demonized felt. It was pouncing towards Jay, yet everything seemed to slow down all of a sudden. It looked towards his head and was able to see a dimple formed from his subtle grin and the corner of his eyes.

He felt cold. This demonic being felt really cold for some reason when he saw those eyes. There was also this inherent inferiority he felt. An inferiority a mortal would feel when looking at a dragon or god.

Slowly Jay picked his right hand up. The augmented revolver still in hand as it got brighter the higher it was raised, until the shining barrel and the demonized head was a foot away.

'Wh. at is h-he.'

The demonized had its' first-ever, and last rational thought as a beam of light entered its head and came out its ass flying towards the other demonized, promising a certain death.

"Bang"

"Thud, thud."

A strong air current flowed with the bullet, and a small shock wave was formed on the revolver's barrel.

Both demonized fell to the floor dead.

Jay turned and took strides towards the hole in the gate wall with confidence and with no wounds to be seen.

A katana over his left shoulder and a steaming revolver was hanging lazily on his right.

"I hoped you enjoyed the show, but it's time for the finale, Dr. Moris~."
