Chapter 36

I was finishing up a meat bun as the flames of the gang war started. The territory was attacked and the building lit to kill all those inside. Instigators from outside started fanning the flames. It was just starting and I pick up another bun to eat. My eyes were cold as I stared over the now brighter night as not many were going to sleep tonight in the slums.

The Nobles no matter what they are supposed to do stay out of the affairs of the slums or make secret deals there. There is a dark side to all societies humans are especially bad for it. Most have a dark side I would border it on all but exceptions are the rule. Most wish to express that only in the comfort in their homes others make a community around it. I revel in it feed off it and use it for my ends.

"Sally Fluffy is on the move for a decapitation move on the first gang." I received a message from Carol. I smile eating my meat bun in my cloak enjoying the evening watching a group of gang members attacks another group as turf wars spread. The whole city was now waking up to the problems in the slums bringing attention to it.

The guards sectioned off the slums at the walls to the district on each side. Instead of trying to save anyone they just contain it. Fires spread lynching was done. It was a beautiful night as I stare up at the moon again. My former mood was entirely gone as I continued to watch as the mayhem continued. I watched a member of a rival gang blood somethings run into a building of some other gang. He walked in with what looked to be a machete and attacked them. It surprised the lot inside but they reacted quickly and although one of their members was killed and two others wounded they stabbed the guy to death. It was a brutal thing being played out all over the slums at the moment.

I watched things go down from brutal deaths to rapes as I watched looters and rioters attack buildings trying to take advantage of the chaos. It was a show of humanity at its worst. I watched it all waiting to make sure that things evolved the way we wanted it.

"Fluffy just killed the first leader but things are going into chaos faster than planned and we are behind. At this point in the chaos we need three leaders dead can you assist." A message from carol came to me and I finished my last meat bun and started to stretch. I sent a message back saying I would take out a leader and to tell me which.

"The leader is Bronson of the Bronson gang unoriginal but the leader is at least D-rank. He boasts that he is very strong and can kill anyone fast with sheer muscle he has some evidence to back it up but... He is supposed to be in the Gang house tonight." She told me the location and I was not far.

I hop from roof to roof easily clearing every gap as I move quickly. I get to the place I was told and it looks like a tavern and the fighting seems to not have reached here. I pull the cloak over my head and walk inside. The bar and everything look normal. There are patrons and everything. My instincts scream at me and I look behind me as the door disappears. I am in a trap I know it.

Questions fill my head as I have no idea how someone either got on Carol converting her or guessed our next step. An Illusionist has set upwards here and I have been trapped. I circulate the energy into my eyes as my instinct screams for me to duck my head. I promptly do that. I am still in the illusion and just pull out my bladed whip and let the whip extend. I put energy into the blades feeling the still novel mana leave my body and my whip starts indelicately attacking my surroundings. I feel something and Blood lashes through the illusion showing have got someone.

I focus on the walls and the furniture as the wards need to be somewhere. I was never good with formations and wards. Now I am in one and wish I took more time to learn at least the basics. The Illusionist though needs to be in the same building. The patrons in the illusion still keep eating even though My bladed whip has traveled through them confirming the illusion but the wards keep the illusion intact.

I am acting like a barbarian whipping everything until something gives. Finally, My whip wraps around something and the illusion falls apart as the energy destroys what was the ward. The room changes more into a hall than a bar but a lot more members are ready looking at me. They have gotten reinforcements. This seemed to be less a trap and more a skilled Illusionist enchanter was purchased to put this in. My misconceptions and paranoia still make me question things. I decide to put the questions aside as I look down seeing the blood of a gang member some boy that got to close while I was acting like a barbarian lose half his body to my whip dead.

The man with large defined muscles cracked his neck looking at me. "Missy whoever with that slightly scary whip. I do not know who you are but you have one chance to leave otherwise we will kill you." I let my whip wall to my feet and smile at him. I move my energy to the tip and let it weigh heavily.

I kick my whip tip like a ball chain and it whips out like lighting with a whistle. I decapitated the Man beside the one who talked. I never say a word and they charge at me with bats swords dagger table legs. Anything they could get their hands on. I used all my tools to reap the lives of the idiots who attack.

I enter a trance a dangerous trance as I dance with them. Weaving in and out of the battle my whip whistling the toon only I know as I kill and murder without remorse or care using energy to keep everything moving cleanly. I dance with them the last dance as I gracefully move through them towards their leader leaving a pool of blood behind me and detached limbs. I end up less than a meter from the Man who talked. He looked pissed off and emotional. I take off my head and my cute face shows up with a beautiful smile on my face.

"Bronson of the Bronson gang?" I ask with a sweet smile on my face.

"That's me, you murderous friend!" He attacks after confirming and I dodge his blows by millimeters.

"Thank you for this dance!" I state bowing that dodges another blow from his fists. I stand back up smiling at him. His frustration and malice peak as he continues to attack me as fast as he could. My body moves with muscle memory dodging by less than an inch each time moving with him around the body littered floor as I play with him. I let us move around as he tries to kill me with all his might and I grow slightly bored with the act. My body moves quickly and I start to deconstruct this man piece by piece shredding his body but keeping him alive longer than necessary.

It didn't take long as bleeding out torso fell to the ground and I stood above him. Such a good dance partner but a shitty fight was the only opinion I had of the man. He was still breathing but not much longer. I pull my hood back up over my face and Stomp with my foot crushing his hard skull.

I look around making sure everyone was dead and leave. It was a good trap just the wrong people behind it. The remains will be cleared up with the plan moving forwards as I left the building. It was a fun dance I thought just boring in the end since the man sacrificed too much speed for muscle but I moved with grace and back up to the rooftops. I sent a message to Carol that it was done. I continued to let her handle the night.

I was back where I started on the rooftop of some building in the middle of the slums quickly. I sat back watching as the flames of turf wars continued. I was called again to another decapitation mission this time with one of the stronger foes. It was said this guy bordered the C-rank and was about to breakthrough. I doubted it but I will not look down on this opponent he is supposed to be a rouge so the same class type as me using energy but for different purposes.

I happily hopped along the roofs with my wet cloak. I moved quickly and efficiently this gang leader seemed to be more active and was personally involved against another gang making this both easier and harder. Our members according to the plan would be making a move soon so I had to wrap this up quickly.

I reached my destination and saw two groups attacking each other in a giant brawl. No tactics of an army just gang members attacking individually on both sides. I saw a rouge in the fighting precisely killing with a decent efficiency reminded myself off before I used Mana instead of energy. He wasn't using his body to its full potential and that was one of the reasons he wasn't C-Rank yet. I watched waiting for hor an opportunity as I saw the rouge gut another rival gang member. I decided to just say fuck it and jumped in. I used energy and my body twisted like a knife almost cut my face and my foot busted the attacker's jaw. The whole move from someone else's perspective would look impossible but my flexibility made it happen.

I Used energy and my muscles with my bladed whip to start a massacre in the rogue's gang and killed and killed. I started my second dance of the night. I was just getting started when he was inside my defenses and almost hit my spleen with his dagger. My body moved out of the way as I killed another person with my bladed whip. It was close distance vs. Mid-range attacker my smile hidden under the cloak as people gave us space to fight as he started to use tricks to disappear temporarily from vision. I just started to massacre his men whenever he left my vision range. I used my instincts and experience to dodge his sneak attacks. My body moved so swiftly that he gave up sneak attacks in frustration. He dodged my whip as he came close for melee range.

My smile stayed as a dance between us started as he made use of feints and small tricks in my vision to attack. I countered and dodged making each attack to hit would be fatal to either party with the slightest mistake. It went on my bladed whip would kill others behind him as we fought. I purposefully did so as it frustrated him. My flexibility was on full display as body parts would move in ways he never expected as I continued our dance. I was on par with him as we weaved in this dance. His blade stabbed at my stomach. My spine would bend back my gut moved back and his dagger missed. I moved my whip and I achieved first blood as cut his leg affecting his mobility. It was small but as we fought it grew and bled. I hit him again and again as we danced. he cut my hip when out of my vision one of his subordinates or rivals threw something at an opposing gang and missed hitting me. No bloodlust or intention behind it scared me when I was hit. He took that opportunity to get a hit and my last second dodge stopped it from hitting an organ.

It happened in a second though when It happened I realized I was running out of time so I gambled. I Threw a knife that I hadn't shown the entire time. He moved quickly dodging but my second whip came out and wrapped around his neck. The dirt and blood-smeared face showed surprise as I came out with two new developments within a second. His eyes widened and My bladed whip wrapped around his leg. I pull and he screamed. His leg started to bleed as Blood splurted out quickly. I never gave him a chance as my second whip let go of his neck as My bladed whip wrapped around an arm taking it off as well. The Dance was over and I looked down at him. I didn't take a second look as I crushed his arm. The knife he was hiding fell out of his hand. I smiled as I crushed his skull.

I hear roars of pissed off people and cheers of moral going up from either side. I left quickly leaving that battlefield as I hopped across the night on rooftops.
