Charred Ashton

Awakens cried in horror and wanted to run but before they could, the attack was in their face, but before the attack could strike, out of nowhere a black shield came and stopped the attack.

Matt was so annoyed that now he wanted nothing more than to kill and kill and kill.

Matt again waved his blade and this time used 'Indiscriminate slaughter'. A transparent windy gale passed and within a second all the three awakens who wanted to run were cut into thousands of pieces.

The cuts were so finely slashed that they could be used for cooking. And then the silence descended. In just a moment, the three 3m awakens died. Once their fragile brain was struck, even god couldn't stop them.

"GARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...." The leader of Awakens who saw three of its brethren die cried in sadness.

Matt smirked but before he could fully smirk, he saw all the awakens who were inside the shops coming outside. His smirk changed into a growl "THAT'S FUCKING CHEATING! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!! PLAY BY THE RULE'S UGLY!!!"

The awaken just smirked and again growled "GARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...." And then Matt saw other awakens who were standing outside also start walking towards the mall.

This fucking moron was calling others to overrun him.

Matt just took a deep breath and blinked. Killing this annoying prick was just a second of play. He reappeared in front of the leader awaken and slashed his blade but the leader picked one of the small awaken and used it as a shield.

Matt again slashed and the leader again used another awaken as a shield.

Matt knew at this rate this was going to become a very big problem, so the moment nine seconds passed, he used 'Indiscrimination Slaughter' but the Awakened was also ready. It used the shield and stopped the attack before it could damage the other small awakens. So, Matt hurriedly used 'Lone Slaughter'.

This time the leader awaken knew that it needed more than the small awaken as a shield so it hurriedly dodged. 

Matt took advantage of the moment the leader awakened dodged and came from the side where it dodged and slashed his blade 'Ceaseless Slaughter'.

A red windy gale passed and thousands of beastly faces came and everything within 50 m was eaten to nothing.

The leader, small awakens, everyone or everything within 50m was gone.

Matt smirked and looked at the other small fries. But when he saw their numbers his smirk twitched. There were more than 200. And after the leader died. They all become berserk. Just like they were before in Sector D.

Then an unbelievable scene happened. If someone saw this scene, they truly would've nearly pissed their pants. A nine-year-old kid disappeared and reappeared and wherever he went, awakens fall.

Dead bodies piled up.

The same awakened that nearly terrorized half of the Arora Continent right now.

It took Matt more than 3 minutes to kill them. Then he collected all the cards and heard a loud boom.

He turned around and saw Ashton's hand was inside of the Awakened nose and then there was nothing but fire.

He was so frightened that he couldn't help but cry "ASSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Ashton's body flew with an immense speed ready to slam and destroy everything in its path but Matt hurriedly vanished and grabbed Ashton's flying body and took all the brunt of Ashton's hit. He didn't care about anything as he saw Ashton's whole body nearly burnt.

 

[Flashback End]

 

This was the scene Sam saw when he woke up. He was badly injured, after the 'Giant Wrath' ended, his body went back to normal but the pain he felt nearly made him cry in tears.

His body was hurting everywhere, inside out. He felt empty. Hungry. But then he saw Matt lifelessly sitting and staring at Ashton without knowing what to do.

So he hurriedly went towards him and sat in front of him to put his ears on Ashton's heart. It was still beating. Faintly. But the beat was still there.

But before he could say anything he saw Matt disappearing. It happened in an instant. Then Matt was everywhere. Fast. Too fast for him to see. And in two seconds he was back and in his hands there were cards. Lots of them. Maybe more than 300.

Without speaking anything he pulled out all the purple cards. There were 40 Body Regeneration cards, 30 Physical Resistance cards, and 30 Element Resistance cards. He placed all the 100 cards on Ashton's hand and crushed them.

"We need to get out of here. Get to your house. Are there any medical supplies there or do we need to get them from here?" Matt calmly asked but his eyes were bloodshot red. Watery. Filled with wrath, sadness, despair, and much more. But he didn't let even a single tear escape as he controlled his emotions and asked what was more important for Ashton.

"I-I have medical supplies at home. You can find everything there." Sam replied but now even his eyes were as red as Matt's. Ashton's body was charred. His breathing itself was a miracle. And looking at Matt's face. He felt guilty.

It was he who asked Matt and Ashton to follow him but from the moment they started the journey, Matt and Ashton helped him immensely but he, he hadn't helped them even once.

Forget about helping, now Ashton was in such a state. He didn't even want to think anymore. The more he thought about the possibilities, the more afraid he became.

"Good. Look at this." Matt spoke as he showed a black card to him as he continued "I found it where the big awaken died. This will help us get to your place easily. Now hurry."

It was a black card. Which had 'Gold Grade' written on the front. And on the opposite side, there was its description.
