Claw Back (II)

"N-No…" The man tried to stutter out, but I was going to have none of it as I simply snapped his neck. I heard some of the others scream in fear or outrage while I killed two of their colleagues, but I was in no hurry to silence them or escape. These people tried to kill me so they should be prepared to face the consequences.

*bang* *bang* *bang*

I felt a bullet pierce my back before I finally twisted the corpse in my hand to use it as a meat shield. Getting shot was painful, not gonna lie, but it was nothing compared to the pain I experienced only a few minutes ago. To be honest, using a corpse as a shield felt really badass even though it should have been impractical with how heavy a heavy body is supposed to be.

"He is here!" "He is here!" 

They continued to scream while shooting at me, so I lifted the body in front of me and rushed at the shooters. Scales started appearing all over my body, and I nodded my head in satisfaction before tossing the body in my hands at one of the guys shooting at me… 

"Guh" There was a gasp as the corpse hit the goon, but I decided to ignore the duo as I lunged at the closest dude and slashed his neck open with my claws. Blood gushed out like a fountain and I felt some bullets bounce off my scales. I smirked internally… So, my scales were really bulletproof. Good to know. 

Though I couldn't help but wonder why the hell were these guys shooting at me instead of using their Quirks? Maybe, their Quirks were so weak that they needed to use guns to compensate and even though this was the era of Quirks, guns were far from becoming obsolete anytime soon. However, I decided to put the thought aside for the time being as I still needed to deal with these people…

I turned around on my heels to face the other goons, but before I could attack them, I felt my world spinning. This is exactly what happened when I climbed out of the car… I stumbled around before dropping to one of my knees. Fuck!! I cursed inside my mind as I tried to get up on my feet. This was way beyond anything Ito had described and I realized that Ito might have been underselling Lang Min to bring me here.

I tried to stand up again, but I reeled back when I felt a heavy blow on my face… To be honest, I was expecting an explosion and while the blow might have been heavy, it didn't hurt me much…

"He is built like a fucking tank!!" I heard someone scream in frustration as another blow landed on my face, but once again, it failed to hurt me. At the man's words, I smirked internally.

"Hey, boss, is it just me or is he growing bigger?" I heard someone else ask incredulously. Even though my world was spinning, I could still hear and feel everything clearly, which led me to realize that his power might have only affected my sight. I felt another blow to the back of my head, but I decided to ignore it and closed my eyes as I wanted to concentrate on my other senses.

While all of my senses were extremely sharp, I was overly reliant on my sight, just like anyone else… As soon as I closed my eyes, I felt the world stop spinning around me and I could hear everything around me, but I was not a ninja or some shit like that who could move around with just their hearing.

"He is a fucking kid! Take him down!!" I heard someone scream and his accent was not normal, which led me to realize that he must be Lang Min. 

I slowly stood up on my feet and I felt a blow on my back, but I decided to ignore it just like before and whirled around toward where I thought Lang Min was… 

"Boss, he is definitely bigger than before" Someone pointed out in a trembling voice. 

"Boss, you need to get out of here… I think he is trying to get used to his hearing" Someone warned in a grave tone. Fuck you, asshole! I don't know who you are, but I am going to rip out of your spine and beat you to death with it! I snarled inside my mind before I froze… Where the fuck did that come from?

I know I might be a sociopath, but ripping out someone's spine and then beating them with it was not something I should be thinking about this soon… Is my power changing me? I asked myself before I quickly shook my head. No, I have always been callous like this. I had thought about killing people back at the orphanage even before the manifestation of my Quirk, but the thought of killing someone never bothered me as it should have.

At that time, I had shrugged away my concerns thinking that I would balk before killing someone for real, but now that I had already killed so many people tonight, I knew that I had been wrong…

"Fuck it! I am going nowhere! He is just a fucking kid and I not running away from a fucking kid!!" The boss, who was mostly likely Lang Min growled haughtily, but he ended up giving away his position so I started to run toward him, earning some panicked gasps. "Wha-? Stop him! Don't let him get close to me!!" Lang Min screamed in panic, but I started to grin, knowing that I was heading in the right direction.

I felt someone slam against me, and I quickly picked up the person with both of my hands before finally coming to a stop. "Lang Min?" I asked in a low tone and I felt him whimper.

"Ahhh! He got the boss! He got the boss! Shoot him! Shoot him!" Someone screamed in panic, but before anyone could start shooting, someone decided to stop them.

"Don't shoot you fucking morons, he got the boss" Another voice pointed out and he sounded calm, unlike the others. Maybe, there was someone who could think with a cool head. "Let the boss go and we can forget what happened here tonight" The same man tried to reason with me, earning a snort from me. If he thought that I would just give up then he had another thing coming to him.

So, instead of releasing Lang Min, I simply smiled and started to pat his head with one of my hands, making him whimper even more…
