Unexpected Visitor (2)

"I heard that you want the people who finish the tutorial. What if we don't come. Will you kill us? Hah! You fucking bastard!" George said loudly as he slowly walks to Eli.

Watching how George acts, the big man beside Eli speaks, saying. "Do I need to take care of that man, Seven? He seems to be the type of those guys who are really arrogant:"

Eli, who is Seven, only took a glance at the big man before answering. "What is this, Six. Are you worried about me? You don't have to, old man."

Gin, who was hiding from the crowd, watches the two with a serious expression before he mused inwardly, 'Six and Seven, huh. Does that mean this group is calling themselves by numbers? Hmm, the big is probably his acquaintance right?'

[Truth Eyes-See Through-has been activated]

Gin didn't wait anymore as he began to use his eyes, slowly figuring out the stats of the big guy.

'Sigh, just what mess am I into now?'

{System Evaluation}

[The same as the other one, it's nothing amazing. By just looking at his status window, it would really shock everyone. Well, with his big body and all, it's good I guess. Try not to involve with this guy if you don't want to die early.]

'I feel like the evaluation is getting tired from evaluating everyone or is it just me?' Gin mused inwardly before he quickly gets the thought out of his mind, as he focused on the scene at front.

"So, old guy." Seven paused as he turned his head at George, "From the way you say things, are you the one who finished the tutorial? But, you look very weak that even I could feel it. It really felt like I can kill you instantly."

Hearing those mocking remarks from Seven, George's face turned to an enraged one as he began to stare at Seven after he stopped.

George looked at Seven with a fearsome face. If it was anyone, they would already shrink back in fear but Seven was entirely different, as he wore a confident smile on his face.

Seven smiles even wider before continuing, "Heh, you really are weak. Well, try me old man... just don't regret it if you do."

Even though George had a fearsome face, he saw that Seven wasn't really scared. He didn't even flinch.

With veins popping upon his head, George speaks threateningly, "As you wish arrogant punk."

George still has a little sense of himself, deciding that he will only give Seven a slap. It was because Geroge knew that he was still a kid but it completely change when Seven's expression remained unchanged.

It was still confident. The smile didn't even go down. George truly realized that he was being underestimated by Seven.

Seeing it that way, George clenched his fist tightly as he decided that he will give Seven a heavy punch from above.

Whoosh!

At the side, everyone watching was waiting silently with a mix of excitement, about George beating up Seven, who threaten that they will kill them if they don't comply.

As they waited for something to happen...

"..."

Nothing happened.

They were expecting something to occur yet no sound of someone being punched could be heard.

Crack!

Suddenly, after the suspenseful silence, a cracking sound could be heard from somewhere with George slowly following on the ground.

Crack!

His legs were bent in a meandering way.

Everyone watching was baffled as they saw George's legs continue to bend. It was confusing as his legs just became like that out of nowhere but all of their thoughts stopped, as soon as George shrieked in pain.

"Ahhhh! Ugh!" George groans loudly as he watches his bend legs with horror.

It made everyone dumbfounded. All they could do was stand frozen in their place as they watch George.

Crack!

"Ahh… Ahhh! W-what…Help me! M-my legs...!" George shouted desperately as he saw his legs bent in a disgusting way.

Crack!

It was then the bones inside his body were the same. It continued to crack and the only thing he could do was to plead for help.

"Ahhh! Help... me! Please... somebody...!"

Yet, nobody answered him as they could only stay silent with a stiff expression on their face.

They knew that if they move carelessly, they would be in the same state as him. Besides, they only met for a day. As if they formed a bond like Gin's group did.

Only a heroic idiot would do that.

'That Attribute really belongs to the bad guys...' Gin mused inwardly as he watch the scene with a disgusted face, 'Ah, shit... it doesn't change one thing. It is dangerous.'

Gin quickly think things carefully about the next step he had to.

'First, will someone fetch us? If it is, then when are they coming?' Gin thought inwardly before he continued, 'Second if option one is wrong and we have to come down ourselves...'

Gin paused, 'We had to at least get out of here. I also can't lose the regressor so I have to help him, even if this is dangerous.'

'Synchronize Nullify ability with this arrow.'

[Synchronizing...]

[Nullified Arrow]

'I hope this works...' Gin spoke inwardly as he swiftly gets out of the crowd, finding a better place where he could have a clearer view of the two visitors.

Crack!

"Ahhh...! Nash! Kisha! Help me! I don't know what's happening…! Ugh!" George continued to flail around as keeps pleading for help, this time, looking at the friends he knew.

Hearing him pleading, the group only moved back as they could only look at George with a sorry expression.

Seeing their movements, George let out a shocked gasp from his mouth with a feeling of betrayal etch in his heart. Slowly, tears started to fall down at the edge of his eyes.

"Hahaha! What now, old geezer? where's the confidence earlier?" Seven happily laughs as he watches George suffer, "Look at you, crying now."

"Sniff… ugh… please, help me. Ah… please." Seven continued as he acted like George with a smile on his face while looking at George, who cried like a baby.

Six, who is watching, is quite surprising as the Seven he always knew was composed. Seeing him acting like this, a thought appeared on Six head.

'What did you do, Fourth? Did something happen between the two of you? Sigh…' Six mused as he let out a sigh from his mouth.

All he could do was to let Seven vent his anger towards the poor man.

Already had enough from the crying, Seven watch George silently before he said, "Ok, here's the deal old man. I'll bring it back but I have a request for you. Will you listen to me?"

"Sniff. I'll do anything... sniff..." George answered with a snot falling on his nose.

The feeling of betrayal already hurt him and if he wanted his legs back, he would do anything from the request that Seven wants.

"Tell me, old geezer. Who are the ones that finished the tutorial?" Seven asked, "Everyone here already betrayed you, so help me. In that way, not only your legs would be back to normal but also give the ones you trusted..."

Seven paused as he smiled mischievously. "Their trust."

Hearing the request that is really easy on George's ears, his face slowly brightened with a smile formed on his face.

Desperation enshrouded his mind as the ones who made his legs into that way had been ignored.

In the face of danger, George knew what to choose at this point. He knew he would do anything that would put him at an advantage.

Chatter!

As soon as Gin heard Seve's request, he instantly stopped moving.

Gin looked back in George's direction and watch him anxiously.

'Oy, old man… don't you dare. It's a lie, don't get baited…' Gin mused inwardly before he gulped down a mouthful of saliva, 'Shit... Oy, Why are you tilting your head towards there? T-this geezer… Stop....'

Gin could see George tilting his head in one direction with Seven and Six following his gaze.

After George saw what he was looking for, he began to smile widely and loudly tell the names of Gin's group.

"Nash Foster." George paused as he shifted his eyes onto another and continued, "Kisha Hallow, Grey…"

Gin could feel his heart beating faster, as he cursed George inwardly, 'T-this... traitorous bastard! At least have brain when you're drying! Die honorable, you know? Shit...!'

"..."

After mentioning all the names, Kisha and others bit their lips as they looked at George with disgusted expressions. Nash, on the other hand, remained silent but his eyes were also disgusted at how George just exposed them.

"..."

Looking at their faces, George felt a bit happy with no hint of sadness from his face. He felt relief in his heart that the easy request has been answered, with his wish being fulfilled after.

"..."

On the contrary, Gin formed a slight frown after he told the names of the group but weirdly enough, he never mention one thing.

'He doesn't know me?' Gin thought, 'Is that why he bullied me a while ago? Hmm... but I can't just let Nash and others die here...'

Gin clenched his bow before he began to roam around, doing what he was supposed to do in the first place.

Whoosh!

Seven, who listened carefully as he followed George's gaze, eyed everyone when he heard the names of the group.

Instead of laughing from it, Seven head was boiling, 'Hah! This old guy. Did he just forget that I'm an enemy and forgot that I was the one who made his legs like that? Not a trustworthy person, tsk.'

Six, who also followed George's gaze, speaks, "Don't waste too much time and energy, Seven. Remember the order."

Hearing the call, Seven turn his head at the side and glared at Six, who didn't even faze by it and stared back.

"..."

Remembering who Six is, Seven calm down and cools his head a bit before he looked at Nash and the group with a smile.

"Ok… Good job old man." Seven said as he didn't even bat an eye to George.

Seven just keeps looking at Nash, who is excluding a killing intent.

Seeing Seven passing him by, George shouted and said, "Kid! What about my legs?! We have an agreement!"

Seven stops at his tracks before glancing half of his head at George, "Where is it? I can't see any papers, pft."

Shocked about it, George had his eyes widen as he speak loudly, 'We have an agreement! You just said that you will fix this! You mo—"

Before Geoge could even continue, Seven mumbled under his breath. "Tsk, annoying man."

Crack!

Once again, the same cracking sound was heard at George's body. What happened to his legs was also happening from his hands and arms.

"Ahhhh!"

Little did everyone watching know that it was also happening on his insides.

They could see it on the outside but little did they know that it is also the same on his insides.

"Ahhh! Ughh…! Ahhh…! Ughh…!"

As George shouted in pain, he continued to roll on the floor with Seven and Six watching him suffer.

Thud!

Seconds quickly passed, everyone watching saw that George had stopped flailing around.

He wasn't moving anymore.

"..."

As everyone watched closely, they could see that his body showed lumps everywhere.

Seven didn't mind it as he began to turn around, looking at Nash's group.

As Seven walked, he could see that Nash continued to glare at him. The killing intent was never lowered which made Seven weirded out.

"What did I do to you?" Seven spoke in an annoyed tone as he felt his anger start rising once more, "We just came here to kidnap you but it doesn't even make sense for you to give me that kind of glare. I felt like one wrong step, you would jump and pounce at me."

"..."

Nash stayed silent as he continued to touch the hilt of his sword. Like Seven said, he would fight if he did one wrong step but he also knew how his distortion works, making him stay in his position.

Nash didn't know how to counter it but it doesn't mean he would remained standing and back down. He was just waiting for a chance.

"..."

Watching Nash expressionless face, Seven, who was still unsatisfied by killing George, is ready as a smile formed on his face while looking at Nash.

"Seven… the mission is not killing the rookies." Six reminded, "Stay—"

"Shut up, Six!" Seven interjected with a shout as he glared at Nash with an annoyed face, "I'll just injure him a bit and then we'll go right away. The glare he is giving me is annoying. It'sjust getting on my nerves! It needs to be disciplined."

Gin, who was listening to their conversation, finally position himself at the perfect place.

At the back of the group but a bit far away from them.

Satisfied by it, Gin knew that the situation is almost about to burst out as he mused inwardly, 'I need to know if someone will come or we'll go by ourselves.'

Gin nock the arrow he had synced earlier and continued inwardly, 'To know that, we need to hold out for at least a few minutes...'

After deciding inwardly, Gin began to open his eyes and said, 'Synchronization'

[Synchronization has been activated]

'Synchronize All-Knowing Domain with Nullify Ability.'

[Synchronizing All-Knowing Domain: Nullify]

[Synchronizing…]

[Synchronized!]

[Nullifying Domain]

'Activate...'

After activating his new sync, everyone who was inside Gin's domain flinched. It felt like another dangerous thing had appeared but the group, who sense the same feeling, suddenly change their expression.

It had an expression of ready to fight.

They one by one look at Seven with a confident voice, forming a faint smile on their face.

At that moment, all of them knew that Gin was there, watching within the crowd.

Nash, who had no idea what to do, also smile faintly as he grip his sword hard.

"..."

Seven and Six noticed how everything changed in an instant without them knowing what it was. Looking at names that George had told them, they formed a slight frown from their face.

They're smiling.

Really wide.

It was only Nash who wasn't as he was still expressionless.

Seeing it that way, Seven began to frown really hard as he began to activate his attribute.

"Distortion..."

Seven mumbles as he looks at Nash's eyes but he was okay a second later. He began to look at the group and does the same thing but the same result showed.

They weren't affected.

'Pheww… It worked? If not, maybe Nash would have died…' Gin mused inwardly as he already find a perfect place to shoot.

At that moment, Gin only waited for the chance to shoot, with him having a clear view at Seven and Six.

"Distortion..."

Seven, who keeps mumbling on himself, can't keep his calm anymore as he shouted loudly. "Distortion! Distortion! Why doesn't it work on you! You! Just what did you—"

'Heh... lose your coll for a moment?' Gin mused inwardly as he formed a smile on his face.

Seeing the chance he was waiting for, Gin pull the string of his bow before shooting an arrow. He added his wind element at it to make his arrow fly fast.

Whoosh!

Seven continued to shout, not noticing the incoming danger towards him,

"Seven!" Six shouted at Seven, seeing something fast flying towards him.

Hearing the shout, Seven turned half of his body at Six and shouted back, "Get away, you geezer! I'll fuck them up! I'll—"

Whoosh!

But, before Seven could even speak, he felt something pierce through his shoulder.

"..."

Seven slowly moved his head at the place and saw an arrow was penetrated into his body.

"..."

Seven began to step back little by little, as he roam his eyes around at the front, finding the culprit from the crowd.
