Chapter 383: Nippy
Currently, right in front of them, utilizing its mandibles, the other ant cut one of the three guardians into two sections. Next, utilizing two of its sharp legs that were as sharp as knives, it attacked its remaining opponents, successfully forcing them to their eternal sleep as a result.
Even though the entire process appeared to have taken a lot of time, the ant had been so quick that the three guardians didn’t even have the time to use their traits and try surviving the attack.
"Noooo!" Cried K as he instantly utilized every ounce of his trait, Psychokinesis, as he sent both of the ants flying away to the far distance.
As he ran to the gruesome corpses of his companions next, a drop of tear rolled down K’s face before he powerlessly fell to his knees beside them.
"U-uncle, right now is not the time for grieving. We need to... run..." Trembling all over his body, Dizzy was hardly able to even mouth these few words. Dizzy was dazed indeed.
Hearing dizzy’s fearful voice, on the other hand, K stood up at once before uttering with a dark face, "You leave... I’ll go and kill them myself."
"Uncle! You can’t!" Alas, before he could even finish, K’s figure had already risen to the sky as it flew in the direction where the two horrendous ants had disappeared at.
Meanwhile, watching K’s vanishing figure, Dizzy clenched both his fists before murmuring in the end, "I won’t leave you alone, uncle. You know that." With that, he also followed the shadow of his guild leader, K.
...
Unfortunately or fortunately for him, when K flew to the scene where the two ants should’ve been at right now, he was faced with an empty space. Apparently, the two ants had escaped or retreated into the woods.
’Finding them would be even harder... now that they’ve run into the woods.’ With that thought, he was just about to follow them when the rushing figure of Dizzy appeared in his line of view.
"Uncle! I’ll come with you, let’s go!" Said Dizzy with unshakeable determination exuding from his being.
Listening to this, however, frowning, traces of hesitation finally took root on K’s heart.
Knowing how obstinate Dizzy can get when he was resolved to do something, K was confident Dizzy would follow him anywhere now. But to be honest, the notion of that happening terrified him, he didn’t want the guilt of losing another one of his people on his conscience today.
Therefore, after much struggle and deliberation to himself, K declared, "Let’s go, we’re going back to our headquarters."
"B-but... what about those ants? They might return or even slaughter innocent people..." Worried about the possible consequences of leaving the ants alone, Dizzy inquired.
"As much as I’d hate to admit, it’ll be too hard for us to kill those bastard monsters alone. We need to go back, notify the Abnormals Association, gather more forces, and then come back for a search and hunt session."
"B-but..."
In a flash, a sharp glint of anger flickered through K’s eyes as he declared his final decision, "No buts! We’ll go collect the corpse of our comrades and leave!"
"... Alright."
...
Simultaneously, nearly a similar scene was being sighted in various countries around the globe. However, in one of these particular nations, something even more stupefying was about to take place.
...
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Currently, Nippy, aka Supersonic Sword, having reserved a single rift entirely for himself, was waiting for the fracture to spit the monster so he could deal with them solo.
"Hahaha... at last, my first solo rift. My name will soon resound throughout the world and people shall revere me as the mighty Supersonic Sword!" He exclaimed in an embarrassing yet exaggerated posture while placing his palm on his forehead.
Crack~
The dim sound of glass shattering was heard at this point. And having noticed that, gathering every bit of his focus, Nippy determined. ’It’s opening! My rift is opening!’
Grabbing the hilt of his sword next, pure excitement began to flicker within his eyes while the image of a soon-to-be future full of reverence of the world toward him occupied his mind.
"Come!" He cried, full of pride.
Simultaneously, the rift finally started the process of expelling as whatever that was on the other side was instantly brought to this side.
In the meantime, the moment the being inside was brought out, without even waiting to check what it was, a grin covered Nippy’s face as he promptly brandished his sword at whatever that had been just shunned there.
Bam!
...
"Ah... what is this? I just arrived here and some bastard’s already trying to kill me? Moreover, he’s of the human race."
On the other hand, as Nippy felt the obstruction of the path of his sword, the zeal and fever left Nippy’s eyes without further ado.
And indeed, with that fire of passion leaving his face, at last, he carefully looked at the being in front of him.
Instantly, his pupils constricted to the size of needle pins. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing right now.
"W-what... h-how is this possible? Y-y-y-you, how can you come out of that place?!"
Witnessing what was before him, Nippy was stunned indeed. He was stunned because he could only call what was in front of him a... man!
A man, as in a male human being! The thought of which petrified him there and then!
Following that, Nippy began murmuring beneath his breath, "No, no, no... but that’s not possible, right? What is he? Is he some type of monster in the shape of a man?! Yes, yes, that must be it! That’s the only explanation."
"Huh, what’s this bastard muttering? And what language is that?" Meanwhile, unwilling to free the tip of Nippy’s sword from his grasp, the other being also whispered.
In actual fact, both Nippy and the other man were speaking in different languages. But to be more clear, while Nippy was pronouncing English sentences, the other person was mouthing voices which could only be said to be connected to Chinese itself or at least very similar to it.
"Whatever. Let’s just get rid of this bug before exploring this land." Having decided on his next course of action, letting go of the tip of Nippy’s sharp sword, at last, he pointed a single finger toward the still confused and lost guardian.
In a flash, a strange type of energy seemed to be gathering in front of the other man’s finger which was released the very next moment.
Thud!
While on the other hand, the second Supersonic Sword had taken notice of the accumulating mysterious energy, getting a very ominous yet dangerous feeling, he promptly raised his sword precisely to the spot where the finger was pointing at. The middle of his forehead.
And following that, as expected, a cracking noise reverberated around the area as Supersonic Sword was blasted away with his eyes wide open.
Nippy was greatly startled because one moment the energy was still collecting before his finger but the next fraction of the second, something had already shattered his sword to many pieces as the cumulative force behind it also launched him several meters back.
