DEVIANT

70 Chapter 70: Cherry

The others watched in horror as Alex slit the throat of the enemy and his blood sprayed on Alex’s face, Luckily he was wearing a face mask so the blood didn’t get to his nose or lips. Even after murdering someone up close, Alex looked perfectly calm which terrified the Tyrant gang goons. Who would expect someone that is only eighteen years at most would b perfectly calm after claiming someone’s life.

Both sides at the two sides of the corridor were reluctant to shoot. They have all seen how proficient Alex is when it comes to dodging bullets. They also knew the more they get killed the lesser their chances of survival. No deviant power yet Alex is so powerful! They finally understood why the Briggs still remains one of the scariest families of the big four even though they don’t have powers.

“Get back to your positions, I will deal with this one” A voice rang from above, and light but steady footsteps could be heard.

He was walking down the stairs in what seemed like a cherry blossom petal robe under his white cloak which bore the Tyrant gang symbol. The man also wore a facemask too, he had pink hair neatly packed back into a ponytail and his eyes were close tight but it felt like could see.

It was a Japanese man but with just a glance Alex could tell he was a deviant, a powerful one at that.

“YES, MASTER CHERRY!” The Tyrant gang goon screamed at the top of their voices as they returned to their classes but as they left, the race shot Alex a glance. Their eyes were filled with pity. It was as If they were grieving his death while he was still alive.

Alex’s eyes flickered with cruelty as he notice the kid getting dragged by the hair by Cherry. Blood flowed down his scalp to his face and he looked pale. When his weak eyes met Alex’s, even Alex was stunned. What he saw wasn’t a cry for help but it was a desire to fight back.

Alex could feel the rage boiling within the soul of the boy. His only regret is that he lacked the strength to face Cherry.

“Oooh! This kid? He caused quite a lot of trouble... Never thought I would come across a deviant with his level of strength in this entire academy, not to talk of middle school. His talent is quite high... We were planning to test his compatibility with a beast gear but then you had to show up and ruin the fun” Cherry said as he pulled out the ancient Japanese hand fan and covered the lower half of his face with it as he spoke.

.....

Alex didn’t seem particularly moved by his words and ignored the man who gave off strong feminine vibes. He just couldn’t bring himself to take this Cherry guy seriously but that didn’t mean he failed to notice the strange air around his hand fan. Alex already guessed the man is a conjurer type and his power is somehow related to the hand fan.

“Hey, Kid what’s your name?” Alex ignored the man of the Tyrant gang and asked the kid a question.

“Blake... Blake Turner!” Blake said coldly...

His temperament and will to fight stunned Alex, this kid reminds him of himself.

“Blake... Stay where you are... This will be over soon” Alex said coldly, leaving the boy stunned.

Cherry frowned and swiftly swung his fan forward! The fan was encased with a fierce pink aura and as it moved it created countless pink petals, raging forward.

ROAR!!!!

Boom!

Alex had no intentions of retreating and promptly punched forward without fear. Utilizing the third form of the demon-kin technique, he gathered a safe amount of power around his fists to challenge the pink petals but it was far stronger than expected. His eyes turned cold as he got pushed back by the ball of pink petals, pissing him off!

KILL!!!

Alex used his second hand to punch forward but this time the petals scattered and went round him, reforming behind him but Alex had already seen this with his secret technique, perceive.

Thud!

He kicked the wall beside him to propel himself to the left just to dodge the attack. Unlike before when he could use the third form only one per hand but now his control has gone up, allowing him to reduce the power invested into that punch, just low enough for his hands to remain functional.

His body drifted to the sides as he reached for his twin demon daggers. Slapping the tip of the two blades together, Alex created a concentrated sound wave attack, aiming for Cherry alone.

Seeing this Cherry smiled calmly as he swung his fan upwards and a wall of Cherry blossom petals formed ahead of him, taking a direct hit.

A powerful shockwave erupted and Cherry was forced to retreat a few steps back, dragging Blake by the hair as he did. Seeing this Alex was enraged but the look on Blake’s eyes stopped him from doing something rash. It was like the boy was telling him to forget him and continue.

“As expected of a pseudo tiger level beast gear, it sure packs a punch... I guess the news wasn’t false. You youe something, given a few more years... Maybe in a decade you will get to my level but, sadly, you had to face me... You cannot beat a B rated deviant with this level of strength” Cherry said calmly.

Whoosh!

“You talk too much!”

Alex said as his body shot forward with his weapons striking forward. He had no intentions of holding back losing to scum like this.

Meanwhile,

More lost kept pouring out from different sides and soon just Siler and Angel could not handle the sheer number of enemies coming their way. The other guardians dispatched for this mission by other guardian associations were low-rated guardians. Angel was the only, B-rated guardian available here, it seemed as if the other high-rated guardians simply felt this event is not worth their attention.
