An Unsafe Room x The Slaughter Begins

The beautiful girl pondered the words of the blond-haired young man. Meanwhile, Shakal took the opportunity to approach the girl's father.

"It is an honor to see you again."

"The honor is mine, my guard told me in detail the help she received from you. It seems that I am indebted to you again. " –Said the patriarch.

"We were just passing through here, and we saw her fighting three people at oance and we decided to intervene."

"I understand, but it doesn't change the fact that you have helped my family. Therefore, I would like to invite you to a dinner with us again, obviously once this war is over. "

"It would be a pleasure to attend."

"Changing the subject, how did you feel about this whole war?"

"I will answer honestly, they must be very interested in getting something that belongs to your family and they seem very desperate desperate to get it. I think they won't stop until they get it. Therefore it is a somewhat complicated situation, since both sides will end up losing. " - Shakal answered sincerely.

The patriarch was silent for a few moments, before answering.

"Certainly, our two families have been in harmony for many years, but everything changed when my oldest daughter bought a strange plant at auction."

"A plant?" - Shakal said surprised.

"Yes, but this plant is incredibly special since it only grows within a single place in this world and its obtaining is extremely complicated."

Shakal was silent for a while, surprised by the information he just got.

"But why is this plant so special?" - asked the young man.

"To answer your question, I would like you to answer me something before. What is the most precious thing that a person possesses? "

Shakal was thinking for a while.

"The most precious thing a person posses is their own life." - replied the young man.

"Right, and that's what that plant can give you."

"Are you telling me that this plant can make you immortal?" - Shakal said, a little surprised by the words of the patriarch.

The patriarch upon hearing the boy's question began to laugh.

"The plant cannot make you immortal, but it can increase your life expectancy." - replied the patriarch.

"I see, an incredible effect. I never heard of anything like it. "

"It is normal thing, only a few know about the existence of this plant. Its official name is Nitro Rice, and it can only be found on the dark continent. "

"I understand, something so incredible can only come from the dark continent. Thank you very much for telling me. " - Shakal finished saying, very intrigued by the conversation.

About twenty minutes later, several shots began to be heard near the mansion. The twenty guards stationed outside the house had started shooting at Polioer's men.

The members of the Diethel family, hearing the shots panicked, not knowing how to act. Several guards entered the main hall and escorted the members to a fortified room..

Shakal and Lev also entered the armored room with the family members. From all of the people inside the fortified room, only four of them were Nen users.

The woman user of the poison hatsu and another one of her companion were guarding the patriarch.

Shakal and Lev were near the entrance to the armored room. Next to them was Chloe.

"Lev, I'll start using En, don't stray from me." Shakal said.

"Ok."

Shakal quickly activated his En, letting his aura flow throughout the mansion. When his aura completely covered the entire surface of the mansion, Shakal became aware of the cruel extermination of the Diethel guards by an enemy Nen user.

The Polioers still had four Nen users, while the Diethel only two. Shakal, not alarmed at the impending danger, observed the position of each of the enemies with his En, and quickly formulated a plan in his head.

"Unfortunately, we are the only ones left alive apart from the enemies, of course. It won't be long before they discover this room. " - Shakal said to his partner.

"Do you suggest that we should leave this place?" Lev asked.

"It is the only option this guys have if they want to keep most of the family alive. We need space to be able to fight and being inside such a small room, it would be a massacre. " Shakal explained.

Chloe was surprised to hear her rescuer's words.

"Let my father know about this, we can still have enough time to leave the room before they arrive." - The girl said while running towards her father.

When she got close, the girl stopped and began to explain everything she heard from Shakal. Both the patriarch and the two nen users were surprised, but quickly understood that being locked up was the worst situation.

Just before they began to warn the other members, one of the walls began to distort. The strong concrete began to vibrate. With every second, the vibration increased more its intensity.

Shakal and Lev quickly activated their auras, enveloping their bodies to protect themselves. The other two users did the same, but they also shared their aura with the patriarch to defend him.

The wall didn't take long to fall. Despite the fact that the concrete was very resistant, its hardness did not allow it to resist the intense vibration.

Behind the wall, five men were standing. Shakal was surprised to see them, since he only found, with his En, four Nen users.

"It seems that the fifth one knows how to hide very well. Now this complicates things. In this case, I think we will have no choice but to fight. " Shakal thought as he made with his hand a gesture to Lev.

Lev quickly understood the meaning of the gesture and prepared for the upcoming fight.

Shakal took advantage of the chaos created by the enemies and the panic of the remaining family members to speak to Lev.

"Lev, in the previous fight you only used your left hand, so now you are forced to use your right hand. We need to buy some time to prepare ourselfs, so take advantage of the chaos and restore the wall that separates us from them. "

Without wasting time, Lev ran towards the wall. None of the five enemies noticed his action until it was too late. The blond young man was already in contact with the remains of the wall.

Lev quickly used his right hand on the remains of the concrete wall, restoring it completely. The restoration was almost instantaneous. The five enemies had no time to react.

The people around who were unaware of the nen's existence were in a state of madness. While the patriarch's guards, in their hearts, thanked the boy for his help.

Shakal quickly reached Lev's side, and without saying anything, used his ability to copy his partner's hatsu.

Shakal now had five minutes to use the copied Hatsu before it disappears.

"All of you, the wall will not last long, so once it is destroyed again, we will take advantage of that moment to make a quick attack and catch the enemies by surprise." - Shakal shouted.

Chloe and the rest of her family, except for the patriarch, were scared to death. The fear of death did not allow them to move or speack.

Hearing Shakal's words, the patriarch ordered his two guards to do as the young man said.

The other two arrived at Shakal and Lev's side, preparing for the counterattack.

The wall was about to fall again. The three would launch against the enemies at the signal of Shakal.

"Now." - Shakal shouted, lashing out at the enemy closest to him.

Upon arriving right in front, the enemy quickly used his Hatsu against Shakal but he was able to dodge it by sliding smoothly to his right. While dodging the attack created by the enemy's Hatsu, he create a blood scythe.

The enemy was surprised to see the huge scythe that suddenly appeared in Shakal's hand, but without hesitation, he used his hatsu again to attack Shakal.

"I see, it must be a conjurer. He uses his hatsu to create bullets, and propels them with his aura. It is certainly a dangerous ability against an ordinary person, but those bullets would not affect a nen user. If the bullets were covered in aura they would be more dangerous, but a conjurer can only use only 40% of the Emissor type. " - Shakal thought as he easily dodged the multiple bullets.

An instant later, Shakal's scythe slashed at his enemy's head. The blood began to flow wildly from the innert body of that man.

Lev, who also used the fast attack to get closer to his enemy, used his left hand to quickly kill his opponent. Two of the five users of the Polioer family were dead.

Shakal after finishing his match, quickly glanced around him. He was surprised to see that the partner of the female poison user was dead. Without thinking much more, Shakal ran towards another enemy.

Of the remaining three enemies, one of them was fighting the woman, while the remaining two were near the dead body of the Diethel family guard.

The two enemies saw Shakal's movement, and prepared to stop him. Apparently one of them was an Enhancer since his hatsu didn't seem to have any effect other than increasing his physical strength.

Lev, seeing Shakal's intention, started running towards him.
