Strongest Mystic

Ethan immediately moved towards the bed, where Izora had kept the gun. He picked the gun and loaded it, pointing it at the door.

Izora held some small bottle and her gaze widened as she saw Ethan's movements and the frown on his face. It was clear someone was there behind the door. Someone dangerous.

'So I was not able to sense them because my level is not that high?'

[Yes,] Nyx said.

Ethan quickly and calmly said, 'I can't use arcane in this house but that also means that they also can't use it.'

[Yes. Only someone with highly concentrated arcane can make those suppression devices useless. Basically more than 200 arcane points.]

'Alright so first I'll give you all the permission to use the special points. First use them on divine sense, enough for me to at atleast sense were these devices are. And then use some of them to buy potions from the shop. You know my body's state better than me so use the points efficiently. Then let them accumulate and according to the situation, we will either convert them into defense or offense. '

[Roger that.]

Because Nyx was basically inside of him, their conversation got over in a split second.

Ethan felt his senses enhanced and he could now tell that there were a total of six people in the corridor outside. Two held swords, one had a gun, while the rest wielded knives. They wore black clothes just like some ninja covering everything beside their eyes.

As for the suppression devices, there were five of them, one on the rooftop, and other four outside the apartment, at its edges. There might be more of them coming so he had to quickly move and get these six people as fast as he could. And then get those arcane suppression devices.

For some reason, they were not moving, Ethan guessed it was because Sam was in the room, they didn't want to harm him. So Ethan had the time to say to Izora, "Do you have something that can be used to make him unconscious?"

"Ah, yes," Izora pointed at the bottle she was holding.

"Good," Ethan said, his gaze not leaving the door, divine sense monitoring their every moment. Eerily, they just stood outside like statues.

He told Izora, "Then use it on this bastard. Then turn the chair, make him face the door, and hide behind him."

Izora's lips trembled so he narrowed his eyes and said with a serious voice, "Izora now there is no time to regret. And I have trusted you, so don't break it. If you do it then…" He took the moment to coldly look at her, his voice was "I'll make you experience another hell. I really will as someone close to me is their target and I can't afford to lose here."

Izora hurriedly shook her head and said, "Never, Ethan. You are my only hope."

[Domination on Izora: +100]

Ethan nodded. Of course, he wouldn't do anything to her, at least not as bad as these people. Still, he knew what fear could do to a human. So he had to be better safe than sorry.

He then went close to her and whispered something to her. She gulped and didn't reply.

"Damn, what the fuck are you doing?" The boss's voice sounded. Ethan held the gun with his right hand and picked the phone that was on the bed from his left. His physical abilities were enhanced so he was confident to at least handle the gun's recoil if something happened.

Ethan sneered. "Your men are already here so why are you acting?"

Boss' dumbfounded voice sounded. "They are already there? How the… Wait…" He said, alarmingly, "What is their attire?"

Ethan frowned. "Some black shady ninja like clothes. They have covered their whole body except their eyes."

"Are they standing like some dumb statue?"

"Yes," Ethan affirmed.

"Motherfucker! Damn shit! How the fuck?! Just who the hell are you… Nevermind, just do whatever you can and survive."

"What are you on?" Ethan was baffled.

Boss' voice became even more serious. "Listen to me. I don't know what you did to get the wrath of these monsters but now they are here, they will kill everyone including that damned Sam! We can't afford this, goddamn it. So fucking survive until out men are there."

"Then who are they? Why aren't they moving? Just what the heck is going on?"

"Fuck, I don't know. These fuckers came out of nowhere and started killing random people. No one has survived till now. But I hope you can… I really hope that nothing will happen to Sam."

"Then truthfully answer my questions. How are you so sure that they are after me? How do I get rid of them? Why aren't they making their move?"

Boss quickly said. "Damn you ask so many questions. Listen, I may have said that they go at random people but that's not true. There is some pattern to their murders. They mostly targeted people who have potential to become powerful. Unknown Mystics, rising political powers etc.

One thing common was that they always left behind a note after the murder. The note always stated how these people had offended 'Zero'. And now don't ask who this shit is. I don't know. Some of the reasons they gave were also nonsensical like 'this dude glared at Zero'. In short, anyone who shows aggression against Zero.

There is no way that the target is Sam. He is a whimp who only dares to raise his hand on the women and girls we send to him. So it must be only you.

They kill anyone and everyone present with their target even at the risk of getting wiped out. Fucking madmen.

Now according to the records and all, these fuckers can attack at anytime. Two minutes, five minutes, ten minutes… no one knows. But if you try to run, they will attack immediately.

And the only way to stop them is killing them."

Ethan frowned.

Boss panted. "Even if you cut their limbs they will fucking try to bite you. Even if you stab at their heart, they will still move. The only way to kill them is fucking attack their retarded brain or beheading them. And yeah after killing them, no matter what, don't touch their dead body otherwise your fate will be worse than death."

"Okay, I'll contact you later." Ethan said. Boss roared in anger and he heard the sound of breaking glass but he disconnected. He told Nyx to remember the phone number and then switched off the phone, throwing it away.

Ethan's frown deepened. "Just what the hell is going on?"
