13 Unkillable

Inside the Space Station, atop a watchtower, two Sky Beasts were sitting before a wide table, each holding several cards in their hands, seemingly playing a card game.

"Ha! Dragon's Roar, your defense had been reduced by 40% and your next attack will be weakened by 20%!" laughed the Sky Beast with a longsword attached to his waist.

The other Sky Beast before it seemed to be in trouble, but soon sighed and grabbed a card, "You always celebrate too early, Nara."

Bam!

Slamming a red card onto the table, the Sky Beast glanced at his companion named Nara and smiled, "And this is why you can never beat me."

Nara stared at the red card with wide-open eyes, completely oblivious by the fact his cards had fallen onto the ground as he didn't hold them firm enough!

"B-Blood Moon!? How do you have that card again!? You have already played that before in the previous round!" yelled Nara angrily but soon his eyes narrowed and glared at the Sky Beast with a cold hint in his eyes.

"You son of a bitch... You have cheated! YOU HAVE FUCKING CHEATED AGAIN YOU SHAMELESS BASTARD!"

Listening to the angry yells of Nara, the Sky Beast put his left pinky into his ear and said with an innocent face, "I don't know what you are talking about. My luck is just simply too good that is why you can't win."

"YOU!!!"

Nara was about to curse and slam his companion right in the head when suddenly both froze up as a black figure appeared out of thin air between the two, with a mining pickaxe in both hands.

Nara and the Sky Beast stared at the black creature that had facial features terrifying similar to a Sky Beast, and wanted to move, but alas, they were too slow.

Swish!

Even before the two could have reacted in time, the creature swung both of his weapons and with a clean hit, pierced the sharp tip into both Sky Beasts' heads, sending blood and brain matter into the air.

"You... what..." started to mumble Nara, but once the creature yanked the mining tool's tip out of his head, his vision turned black and his body fell limply onto the ground.

"Great job." a voice suddenly sounded from behind the creature, and a young man with 2 other creatures and an old man behind his back appeared at the door.

[Target's body has decayed!]

[Target's {Soul} has been freed!]

[Attaching {Death String} on target now possible!]

[Target's body has decayed!]

[Target's {Soul} has been freed!]

[Attaching {Death String} on target now possible!]

Nash listened to the notifications inside his head while two black strings appeared before his face, each attached to one of the corpses before his feet.

Seeing this Nash grabbed both strings, attaching each to his fingers and soon black mist broke out from the dead bodies, and two creatures, similar to the one that killed them solidified and appeared before him.

"With these two now I have 3." Nash thought to himself merrily, but in contrast to him, Revio and Erys didn't seem to be happy at all. Instead, they looked at this sight with deep fear as they were scared they will end up with fate such as those two that now became the puppets of Nash eternally!

Uncle Ben on the other hand seemed nonchalant by this and stepped to the watchtower's edge and looked around.

"Five on the North, seven in the south, and a few more in the west. No matter how I look at this, there is no way we can approach the spaceship without getting noticed."

Nash walked next to his uncle and glanced at the places he pointed at before shifting his gaze at the humans below him that were hiding below him, next to the watchtower's walls.

"What do you plan to do now?" Uncle Ben asked him, seemingly troubled too by what their next step should be.

Nash pondered for a while then glanced at the three Souls and soon a scary smile emerged onto his face, shocking Uncle Ben deeply.

"If we can't avoid being stealthy, then let's make a little bit of chaos."

Quickly turning around, Nash looked at Erys and Revio and asked, "Do you have any weapons?"

Both seemed to be hesitant to reply to Nash, especially Erys, but because of the invisible power they have no chance to fight against, they talked right away.

"I have two World Grade weapons, each on the 4th Class while I also have one Luminary Grade which is 2nd Class," answered Erys, her tiny fists firmly clenched into ext her body.

"I only have a World Grade weapon that is on the lowest Class, the 5th Class..." replied Revio, seemingly ashamed he only had such a weak weapon.

Nash nodded and said, "Give me the three World Grade weapons."

Without any chance to resist, Erys and Revio waved their hands, summoning three different-looking weapons onto the table before Nash.

The first one was a normal longsword with a beautiful hilt and a blade seemingly made out of some kind of black steel.

The middle one was a curved dagger with a blade that was jagged and a hilt that looked extremely comfortable to hold thanks to the red fur that was acquired from some kind of creature.

As for the last one, it was an extremely long weapon with thing core but wide and exceptionally sharp tip; it appeared to be a spear, but because of the cracks on its surface it seemed quite fragile.

Nash examined each weapon and then nodded before handing one to each of the Souls that stood motionlessly on the side.

"Here. Can you see those creatures there?" asked Nash and even pointed at the Sky Beasts in the distance, "Kill them."

Swish!

Without waiting for anything else, all three Souls moved, each targeting different groups to slay!

Nash seeing this nodded and glanced at his uncle before turning around and saying, "Let's go to the spaceship. Those three will take care of the rest."

"Huh? O-okay..." nodded Uncle Ben as he still seemed to be shocked by Nash's previous action and followed him from behind together with Erys and Revio.

Once he was descended the watchtower, Nash led the human toward the closest spaceship, but not even after they walked 10 meters, loud sirens sounded together with screams and yells in the distance.

"Who are you! Identify yourself!"

"ARGH! MY ARM! YOU BASTARD, YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!!!"

"Call for help, we are under attack!"

BOOM!

A huge explosion shook the whole ground, causing many humans behind Nash to halt their steps because of shock and stare at the commotion in the distance.

Hundreds of meters, even a mile away from where they stood, buildings were burning in flames while several Sky Beasts were fighting against creatures that were made out of nothing but solid black mist!

But even though there were a ton of Sky Beasts against only 3 of these black creatures, the Sky Beasts were the ones at a disadvantage, even dying rapidly!

However, they were slain not because their enemies seemed to be exceptionally powerful, but because they were... immortal!

Every time a Sky Beast avoided their attacks and successfully cut off either their arms or head, under a split second their lost body parts would regenerate back, leaving the Sky Beasts no chance for survival at all!

To put it simply it was a one-sided massacre with no probability for the Sky Beasts to come out of this battle alive!

"Don't stand there like a bunch of fools, run to the spaceship! Now!" Nash's voice snapped all the humans back to reality and they began to run toward the spaceship while ignoring the chaos not far away from them.

However, even though everyone started to run to board the ship, Nash stood in one place and glanced at the tip of his fingers, where 3 black strings were extending into the 3 Souls in the distance.

"This feeling... Why do I feel as if my power is sucked away ever so often?" asked Nash himself.

[Every time a {Soul} regenerates it absorbs your {Essence}!]

"Essence? What is that?" asked Nash, but soon several letters and sentences appeared before his eyes, dumbfounding him deeply.

[Opening context of 'Character Status' and 'Special Character Status'!]

Nash stared at the sentences in his line of sight and turned silent, but still couldn't help to let out a shocked gasp.
