35 Electric Charge / Gang Raid.

*Sigh*

"Luckily, that manager lady let me go after putting it on my tab… There's a week at most to pay it so I should go make some money… I need some for a place to stay too. *Sigh* Now that I finally got some rest too… Maybe I Should have charged him more money for the information?" Stella muttered to herself.

Her ears suddenly twitched as she remembered something important.

'Speaking of him… That guy, his level still seemed to be low. Judging by how weak he was… "That" probably hasn't started yet… Maybe I should have warned him about it…'

That was something which had caught even her off guard when it happened. Since she wasn't particularly like any normal human she was able to survive but-

"I wonder if he can survive it… The event which happens once he hits level thirty… Even I nearly died." She muttered as she felt shivers going down her spine.

She brushed it off shortly after as it had nothing to do with her.

"We're here" Said the man as he suddenly stopped.

It was an old abandoned factory. A large broken down building which seemed to have been recently repaired inside of an area surrounded a large iron fence which linked to the gate. Due to how tall the fence was, Asper wasn't able to see what was on the inside.

Excited that they had finally reached their base, Asper began trembling as he looked around. The people behind him snorted at this believing that the trembling was caused by fear. After all, right ahead of them were the gates which led to the base.

The man pressed on the buzzer on the side of the base before the gates open as he muttered a few words. Asper's eyes widened when he saw it.

Groups of hunters just laying around. Some were talking to each other while others seemed to be sharpening their tools and weapons. There were around twelve hunters, each split into groups of four.

They were all definitely hunters, not all of them were fully geared as they would usually be for expeditions but they almost all of them had a handgun on. Very few had rifles ready.

Asper also noticed a glint on the corner of the top of the factory. It was probably a sniper who's sights were locked on him.

Suddenly screens began appearing in front of Asper's eyes.

<Safe period has ended>

<Quests will now be assigned at a more frequent rate>

<New quest received>

<Quest: Destroy Purple Scorpion Gang>

<Reward: 4000 EXP + 2 Stat points>

<Failure: ???>

Asper's brow raised once he saw this. Only 4000 EXP and 2 Stat points?

'This feels like a scam.'

"The fuck you standing around for!?" Said the man as he suddenly kicked him from behind.

The kick caused Asper to drop to the ground, slamming his face in the process. His hands were locked and restricted behind his back by shackles.

'Oh well, I was planning on destroying them anyways.'

The sudden act managed to gather some attention but it was nothing.

"Huh? Who's that."

"Some random kid? The fuck is he doing here?"

"Probably the usual. Just some trafficking."

They continued on with what they were doing paying little to no attention to Asper. Asper on the other hand, glanced a glare at the man who had kicked him before getting up.

A man with a trimmed beard, shaved brows, sharp brown eyes and short brown hair which was trimmed on the sides. He too was large and muscular with an electric M4A1 with an attached scope resting right on his arms pointed down at Asper.

'Twelve plus two behind me… That's fourteen. My hands are tied and my weapon's with the guy behind me. Both him and the guy next to him are paying close attention so I'll have to be quick when I do this. Now… to test this new skill.

Electricity began flowing through Asper's finger tips as he slowly got up. Rather than it being a difficult trigger or process, it just came naturally to him. Like a switch which suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Asper slowly turned back towards the man behind him before facing him.

"The fuck are you standing around for? Didn't I tell you to go walk on!?" Asked the man as he was about to kick Asper to get him to move on.

"Y-Yes… I-It's just… I have a bank card hidden inside of my shoe… It contains 34000 NOVA which I've gathered from looting dead hunters bodies… I-I'll give it to you if you let me go."

A grin appeared on the mans face as he saw this.

"Why didn't you just say so?" He asked as he leaned over.

He slowly leaned down and over to Asper, dropping his guard in the process.

"Which shoe is it?" The man asked as he stared Asper right in the eye.

Just for one moment, the man had shut both eyes and smiled. He was clearly underestimating Asper's abilities. He was leaned in with his guard dropped. It was a perfect moment for Asper.

Quickly, the man could even notice. In one hop, Asper's body lifted off the ground and with a single rotation, a kick suddenly made it's way right at the man's temple.

*THUMP!*

Asper's eyes widened at the result. His kick was canceled as the man had grabbed his leg. Even with his increased speed from his agility the man was still able to see it.

"HA! You thought-"

A grin formed on Asper's face as the electric current from his hands traveled throughout his body in an instant before being released through his legs.

*BZ*

The charge wasn't powerful enough to paralyze him completely however it was enough to numb out his arm causing him to let go of Asper's leg.

The moment he did-

*BAM!*

In an instant, with both arms on the ground to support and push him up. He swung the very same leg which had been blocked, once again at the man's temple.

A direct hit. But that wasn't the end of it. Currents of electricity were simultaneously discharged out of Asper's leg as the kick connected, causing it to flow directly into the man's brain.

*BZT*

The man's eyes rolled back, his consciousness faded in that very same second. The man who had been beside him and witnessed everything had already had the nuzzle of his hand-gun pointed at Asper from the moment he had landed the second kick.

He wasn't able to shoot due to being worried of hitting his comrade in the process. But the moment he saw that his comrade was about to fall over, he was about to pull the trigger.

That was until-

Asper hid most of his body in the falling frame of the tall man who he had just knocked out. Since Asper's frame was small, barely anything was poking out. If he shot and ended up hitting his comrade in the process, he'd be killed.

The sudden fear clouded his thoughts and before he even realized it, rather than falling back, the unconscious body of his comrade was falling towards him. This happened since Asper had given it a strong tackle to make it fall towards the guy.

The body falling towards the guy caused him to take his sight off of Asper just as Asper had planned. However, the guy had quickly reacted and taken a step to the side with his hand still on the gun.

However, after stepping to the side. His eyes widened once he noticed that Asper was nowhere to be seen.

'Where did he-'

*Thump*

The sound of his comrades body landing on the floor seemed to be the only thing he heard in that moment. Before he even realized it, there was a knife place right over his neck as something was latched onto him from behind, with it's legs wrapped around his waist.

It was Asper.

'What…? What just- What just happened…?' The guy wondered as a cold nervous sweat flowed down his face.

"Move or say a single word and you're dead." Whispered Asper.
