Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

Acht was cornered from all sides and he had no way of getting out of this situation. He was utterly helpless.

But, even with all of that and the fact that he was the closest he ever was to dying, he still kept a calm mind and his eyes never wavered for a second.

He then swiftly dodged the leader and took a few meters of distance to do something. He looked around him for a moment and found that the weird substance had already started dissipating, it was still dangerous to breathe but Acht had a completely different idea.

'I still have enough energy for one more gravity manipulation.' He thought inwardly and went straight into action. This was his last gamble and if it worked then his chances of getting out alive will increase exponentially.

He grabbed a big pebble and cut some of his clothes. He then tied the pebble with the shredded cloth. But, this took him some time so he had to do it while also moving left and right to avoid some of the berserk people. This didn't come without a cost as all cuts and injuries riddled his body.

But, he was able to pull it off. After preparing it, he directed the pebble and the cloth toward the areas where the substance was concentrated and started swinging the pebble at a fast speed.

Then, he used his gravity manipulation to make the pebble lighter and increase the speed of the turning. His actions created strong air waves around him.

The waves of air kept on moving at an incredible speed pushing weird substances away. Instantly, the hall cleared slightly and Acht saw a place that was considerably clean so he ran there and took a deep breath immediately. He had already passed his limit and he felt himself lose consciousness at any moment but he was able to pull it off nonetheless.

Acht took deep breaths as quickly as possible before he closed his mouth and nose again. He didn't have the leisure of breathing comfortably since there were still many mad people after him that wanted to eat him alive.

The boy ran around the place trying to find a way to break through the closed passage but his only solution was to fight the leader since he was the one who threatened him the most. Their confrontation was set in stone.

'I have no other choice. I need to kill him as quickly as I can.' He thought to himself as he kicked one of the men in the stomach.

Before he could even fight the leader, he needed to get rid of the others since they were like annoying bugs that kept on moving around him non-stop.

'How could…Wait!!' His eyes locked on the room that they were in. It had a metal door that resembled the one that locked the basement. He also had the control panel so he could lock them inside the room if he pulled them there.

Without further to do, Acht changed his direction and ran toward the to followed by the crazy men behind him. They were all akin to brainless wild animals so they didn't think at all when they chased after him.

The leader however seemed to retain some of his brain since he didn't follow Acht but kept on running around the perimeter of the room shouting and shrieking at his subordinates who ignored him completely.

It seemed that the stronger the individual, the less affected he was by this drug, and since the leader was a level 9 white soul, he was able to keep some basic thinking abilities that make him some kind of primitive Homosapien.

Anyway, after every gang member followed Acht inside, he used the controller and started closing the room. But, he didn't leave yet and made sure to keep himself inside until the last second.

When the door was almost closed, he sprinted towards it and passed through at the last moment while the other people chased after him in a frenzy but ended up smashing into the metal door. He could hear the scratching sounds and the wild cries coming from inside but he didn't care about it. He was now alone with the leader.

He was also looking at Acht without moving.

'He's higher than me when it comes to soul force. But he can't think properly so I could exploit that.' Acht noted in his head before dashing at him again. He was still holding his breath so ending the fight as quickly as possible was a must. To do so, Acht decided to go all out from the beginning.

He used the minuscule amount of soul force he still had left and enhanced his body. He felt his muscles bulge slightly and his legs became considerably lighter.

'WRAAAAA!!!!" the man shrieked and charged at him too.

*Swish* *Cling*

Acht's sword clashed with the man's hands and made a clunking sound. The man's skin was tough but it wasn't as tough as Thyrus's since the sword made a cut in his hand and blood splashed everywhere.

With his other arm, Acht grabbed the leader's head and tried to smash it to the ground.

*BOOOM*

A loud cracking sound coupled with the inhuman shriek of a weird creature echoed in the corridor.

'Die, you brainless fuck.' Acht thought indifferently as he kept smashing the man's head to the ground. The leader tried to stop him by grabbing his arm and trying to crush it but he only made some cuts on his arm and some loud sounds of Acht's bones.

After hitting the ground so many times to the point where he even created a hole in the hard rock, the leader finally stopped resisting and laid down motionless.

When he was finally sure he wouldn't move again, Acht stood up from his place and walked slowly to the exit.

'Finally, this is over.'

He was heavily injured and lost a lot of blood because of the many injuries he had on his whole body. He even started to feel hazy and his mind became sluggish.

'Damn it…I'm losing consciousness…If I faint here then it will be my end…Fuck ' He cursed under his breath a bit his tongue to make him wake up. The sharp pain from the bite coupled with the metallic taste of blood gave him a boost of energy.

Fortunately, he was able to reach the gate and left the basement. The moment he was sure that he was finally out, Acht's body lost all strength and he fell unconscious instantly.

What he didn't see, however, was Tania who saw him fall like that and she ran to him in a hurry. Her eyes were extremely worried at first but she sighed audibly in relief when she saw that he was only sleeping.

Then, her eyes shifted to look at the basement. Then, she stood up and walked inside again. She didn't hold her breath or even bother with the white substance in the air.

She kept walking calmly until she reached the leader who was laying on his face with his own blood splattered everywhere.

Tania then looked at him for a few seconds before she kicked him in the head twice.

"Ouch!!" The leader made a groan of pain and stood up.

"Why did you do that, young miss?" He asked as he scratched his head. He didn't seem to be affected by his injuries or to be more precise, there was no trace of his previous injuries from Acht's fight.

"Stop…acting." She said two words but they were more than enough to make the man feel intimidated.

Then with a click of his two fingers, his whole appearance changed and he became a totally different person.

Tania didn't seem to be surprised by this weird transformation as she ignored him the next second and walked to the closed room.

"Why are you angry, young miss? Did we overdo it? I thought they were your orders for us to do so." The man kept asking as he followed her like a puppy.

Tania glared at him from upfront and didn't give him a second glance. She opened the door to the room. There, the men who were previously looking mad and brainless were now sitting down with nervous looks in their eyes.

"You…Punish." She said as she crossed her arms in front of her chest with a harsh gaze.

"Please, young miss!! Have mercy!!" One of them begged loudly with a pathetic look.

"I said…fight….Acht…He's cool…but…you…hurt..him…punishment." She said each word alone as if she was emphasizing them.

"But.."

"Silence." She then turned around and walked away. When she was far enough she turned around and said.

"Disappear."

Then left the place with Acht on her back. He didn't hear anything since he was dropped cold and even if he heard it, he would've lost consciousness from anger and shock.

His life was on the line and it was all a fake scenario made by Tania. But, for what reason? Who was this mysterious girl?

"Acht…amazing…Strong…I want more…I want him…" She muttered with a blush on her face as she walked with him in the dark streets of the city with the full moon illuminating her beautiful face. A beautiful face that hid something no one should know.
