One Against Fifteen.

Silence shrouded the room as everyone stared at the silver haired beauty who was casually leaning against the wall behind them with her arms folded beneath her ample breast... 'How did she get in here without our knowledge.' was probably what everyone was thinking.

Seeing the confused gazes of those present Nikita sighed before glaring at Bai who was still gazing at her in wonder.

"Ahem... so you're the one who ordered those bugs to trail us, eh?"

She asked Bai while ignoring the many eyes gathered on her. Bai looked dumbfound at the girl whose beauty was so overwhelming that he could confidently say that he had never met anyone more beautiful in his life. However, his mind was in a mix of both confusion and surprise as his guard was up the entire time and yet, this woman had managed to not only sneak inside his hideout but also got behind him without his noticing.

(Was it a coincidence? No, it can't be... even though she is standing right in front of me I can't sense her presence. It's like she doesn't exist)

He thought while feeling the sensation of cold sweat running down his back. It was the first time he had met someone who could bypass his senses. His instinct was giving him danger warnings. Seeing him being lost in thought Nikita's face contorted in boredom.

"Hey, did you not hear me? I ask why you sent those guys to spy on us. Explained it to me snappy, if you do your deaths will be quick and painless."

Nikita said in a detached tone. Hearing the words of Nikita, silence once again filled the room until someone who couldn't read the atmosphere decided to speak.

"Ah ahaha! For someone with such a pretty face you're rather arrogant, aren't you? Give us a quick and painless death, you say? Don't make me laugh! Each of us here is a high rank adventurer respectively rank D and A and you have the nerve to look down on us, if you get down and Pro-straight now, I'll forgive you."

He said gesturing towards the ground. The corner of his mouth was upturned into a smirk. Judging by the demeanor and personality of Nikita he could tell she was rather prideful. There was nothing more satisfying than to see a proud woman's face when she's beaten and thrown onto the ground, just imagining the frightening look on her face filling him with great elation. Nikita looked at the foolish man who had just insulted her and sneered.

Hearing his words, she was quite angered not only did this man insulted her he also had the audacity to give her order. Suddenly she had the urge to beat him to death but instead she showed a great amount of self-control and heaved a sigh.

"Well?"

She once again asked Bai who was still in his stupor.

"Huh?"

Nikita's voice brought him back to his senses as he cleared his throat.

"Instead of answering your question how about I make a proposal?"

Bai suggested. Hearing his question Nikita raised an eyebrow in interest.

"Oh, let's hear it."

"Why don't you ditch that guy and join me? I'll pay you double of whatever he is paying you."

Bai said his lips curved into a smile. His organization wasn't wealthy by any means but, they do make an impressive amount of income adventuring. He was confident he could get his hands on someone as strong as Nikita with money. However, the latter was disappointed when hearing his proposal, she thought he was going to offer something more interesting she never had any interest in money so, why should she do so now?

"Sigh, I'll pass on your generous offer... I honestly doubt the likes of you could afford half of me."

She said somewhat sarcastically. Bai couldn't help but frown when he heard her blunt refusal.

(This Bit*h just because she has a pretty face, she thinks she has the right to look down on everybody)

He thought clenching his fist in anger. Seeing the irritated look on his face Nikita couldn't help but chuckled to herself. In the end she had already made up her mind to disposed of everyone here already, negotiation was out of the question.

"Hey! Leader bai this woman is too relaxed. Even though she is before all of us, she still has that 'I'm in control face' I can't stand it. Please allow me to show her, her place. After all dogs who doesn't like to follow order from their master deserves to be punish."

A skinny blue haired man dressed in shabby clothing said clenching his knuckles as he approached Nikita.

"Sigh, I didn't want it to come to this but, I guess I have no choice. Beat her into submission, but don't hit her face."

Bai said after thinking about it calmly in the end they had the advantage in terms of numbers and also, everyone here had many years of fighting experience. Bai was confident there was nothing to worry about. He went back to his chair and casually seated himself while making an expression as though he was watching a show.

The blue haired man stared at Nikita's curvaceous body that was apparent through her yellow transparent dress that wrapped tightly around her body and licked his lips. Nikita's brow furrowed faintly in displeasure sensing the deep lust inside his eyes.

"Don't resent me for what I'm about to do, resent yourself for your own arrogance."

The blue haired man said folding his hand into a fist before thrusting it towards Nikita's abdomen.

"!!!"

With quick movement and impressive reaction time Nikita casually caught the blue haired man's fist before imbuing her fist with magical power accompany with her monstrous strength from her heritage she lunged her fist into his stomach, his chest caved in as the sound of broken bones became audible to everyone's ears. The blue haired man's body was sent flying backwards just like a ball kicked across a field, his body was sent flying across the ground and slammed into the wall behind him.

Boom!!

A large crater was formed as the blue haired man groans in pain coughing out a large volume of blood and fainted with the white of his eyes showing. Once again silence filled the room as everyone stared at the blue haired man's unconscious body.

(What just happened?)

Everyone presents also wore similar expressions on their faces. Joe just lost an A ranked adventurer, everyone had trouble comprehending what just happened. Nikita's eyes shone dangerously as she looked at those present Bai noticed this and promptly gave orders.

"Quickly, capture her!"

He shouted pointing his finger at Nikita who stood calmly before him. At his command everyone quickly pulled out their respective weaponed and charged towards Nikita in perfect unison.

"Oh, you're all going to come at me at once, eh? Interesting."

She quietly muttered to herself. In a blink of an eye her figure vanishes from everyone's sight.

"Arrgh!"

"Guh!"

"Gah!"

The adventurers at the front who lost sight of her hurriedly turned around when they heard the screams of their comrades. What greeted their eyes was a gruesome scene of the severed limbs of their allies. A middle-aged man carrying a long sword had his right leg ripped off at the same time a skinny man holding a spear had his head dissected.

A chubby man holding a gauntlet had one of his arms severed from his shoulder. Nikita used partial transformation and transformed her hands and feet into her fox form, allowing her to move at great speed while attacking her enemies.

With three of the adventurers now down and unable to continue fighting anymore she turned her eyes onto the remaining twelve. A silver flash passed their eyes as Nikita closed the distance between them.

Bang!!

Nikita was going after a man holding an iron chain when she was intercepted by a middle-aged man who swung his short sword with perfect precision. Nikita's animal instinct warned her of danger, she instinctively lowered her head at the same time a loud 'Swooshing' sound passed her ear as well as a blade that drew a beautiful arc that was only a few millimeters away from her face as strands of her silver hair scattered apart.

"Mm... not bad I was sure my attack just now would have caught you off guard. Very good it seems this won't be boring."

The man with short white hair dressed in simple attire voiced his honest praised. Nikita placed her hand against her side bangs and felt the placed of her hair that had been damaged. She looked at her hand and saw many strands of her lustrous silver hair. Seeing that she couldn't helped but fumed in anger. Hair is every girl's pride and now hers were damaged. 'This man needs to pay.' is what her crimson eyes implicitly states. The white-haired man's face stiffens when sensing her anger.

They only looked at each other for a brief moment, there was no need to exchange words. As their feet moved at the same time. Nikita charged forward attacking him with her claws. However, the white-haired man delt with them perfectly. Swinging his sword blocking all of her attacks, Nikita lunged a sharp kick towards his chest, however, the white-haired man raised his knees in order to block her kick.

"Ngh."

The white-haired man groaned in pain from the sensation of his shattered bones. While he was able to stop her kick her physical strength was so great that his legs bones paid a heavy price. His face grimaced as he tried to stand up.

(Tch, I have no choice but to fight at a distance.)

"Mother of wind slice my target, air cutter!"

He shouted while holding out his palm, a magic formation appeared and fired condensed wind in the form of a blades towards Nikita. Seeing that she stomped heavily onto the ground, four blocks of ice walls then appeared before her. The condensed wind struck two of the ice walls and easily sliced it apart. However, the ferocity behind the wind blade weakens as it forced its way through. It then made contact with the third ice wall and bit by bit the ice wall was ripped apart. However, after forcing its way through it became mere gust of wind that caused Nikita's silver hair to flutter gracefully.

Nikita's hands turned back into her human hands as two ice swords instantly materialize inside her hands. She slowly walked towards the white-haired man whose face was twisting in pain.

"Mm?"

"Mother of fire burn my target, flare ball!"

Mother of earth strike my target, earth spear!"

"Mother of water trap my target, water jail!"

Nikita stopped in her tracks when she sensed the magical power getting restless in the air, she turned her head and saw three men dressed in mage clothing chanting spells simultaneously, soon three magic formations floated in midair, and water shot towards moving in various pattern. The water coiled around her giving her no chance of escape as the projectiles spells made their way towards her.

Boom...!!!!

A loud explosion rang out as the spells made contact with the water jail. Many of the adventurers sighed in relief when they saw that their attack had worked, Bai included.

(At least now she should learn her place)

He thought closing his eyes in satisfaction. However, if they were paying close attention, they would have noticed the wicked smirk on Nikita's lips as she was enclosed inside the water jail. A thick cloud of smoke filled the spot where Nikita once stood. A man holding a spear and shield slowly made his way towards that spot trying to find any sign of Nikita still intact.

He narrowed his eyes as the smoke subsided.

"Hm.... I still can't see...Guh!"

As he was observing that spot a slender hand suddenly shot out and grabbed his face. He struggled to break free but, the hand didn't budge, the hand strengthens its grip as it continued to squeeze his face. He then thrust his spear still in his hand forward but, to his disbelieve the figure caught his spear. As he heard a single word that sent goosebumps down his spine and signal his inevitable death.

"Freeze."

A charming voice that could easily melts one's soul sounded out and soon his head slowly started to freeze and turn to ice, until it was completely frozen into a block of ice. His head then shattered to pieces as his headless body fell to the Ground.
