Chapter 4

We both look at each other with excitement. The rush for battle flowing inside is very large and can't be contained within this body.

We both smirk at each other.

This would be the last move to decide who is the winner of the current battle.

We both jump at each other.

I am ready to kick her.

It was a perfect win.

"You are a little bit late!" She said with a smirk.

As she said that, suddenly, something wrong happened. She got too fast in the air. It is impossible to catch acceleration in velocity without losing the height rate from the ground. But she did that.

She is behind me.

She grabbed my neck.

A snap happened. A crack. My neck!

I still can't believe that I am not dead.

I fall on the earth.

I am pretty much dead now, but thanks to some sort of hidden features I got from being Adaptae. I am still alive.

"You won!" I laugh with pain.

She looked at me with disgust. Maybe my actions had given her bad taste, one can say. I am dead now.

"You are dead," she said.

What a dead serious tone line she got.

She raises her sword above her head and is ready to strike my neck for once for all.

"Goodbye, world"

But before her sword can make contact with my skin.

"Wait!!"

The cameras who were just floating above me had now taken stage and come to protect me. There is a speaker on camera, I guess. I mean, how can you explain how the camera is speaking? High tech, for sure. Suddenly, a hologram appeared.

It was a hologram view of the lab with Kalki and Joan together.

"Stop right there, Aeralda!! It's me, Joan. He is my friend" Joan said.

Woah. Her name is Aeralda.

"Aeralda? Her name means original. I never knew that you got a tendency to get into bad terms with high rankers before knowing them" Kalki smiled.

Here, my neck is hanging like broken, and he is smiling. He is a troublesome person but a very good person with great advice.

"Who is she?" I asked.

I am literally a dude who doesn't know any worldly shits that everyone knows despite the fact that I am popular for being a criminal in Turkey. Maybe it is because my country got more damaged than anyone else's country. This is why I don't have that much knowledge on them.

"Well, her name is Aeralda Gremaluz. She is an A rank Adaptae. Her title is Hero of Earth" he told me.

Hero of earth? That's a big title. What did she even do that got her this title?

"So, what do you want me to do?" She asked her.

After they explain everything to her from the beginning on why we are here in the first place.

"So, this is the situation you guys got in. It is like a movie, I guess" she said.

"You think of it like this. But why does Germany feel different" Joan asked her.

Her face became sad, too. A sad smile showed up on her face.

"Well, Germany is not in good condition. Things had gotten worse. A French girl had shown up in Germany, and with her army, she had conquered almost all of Germany in her hand. Her army is strong. Those who had opposed met the fate of death from her hands" She explained the situation.

What a sad fate. Why does France always attack Germany? Napoleon shits are happening. From what I can say that either that French pute is Adaptae or her army is filled with Adaptae. Wait…Ololkor. There is a chance he is helping her!

"There is a high chance that Ololkor is helping her!" I told them.

Kalki nodded.

"This scenario can be true," Kalki said.

We now know what we have to do.

Sun was lowering up.

"Shit!" She cursed.

"What happened?" I asked her.

My neck is still bent up, but it's still weird.

I am alive, and that's all that matters to me.

"You know why those guards were there?" She asked with a serious face.

"Maybe because they love me?"

Who said that I don't get humor at all.

"Those were there to guard up against those monsters!" She points towards a horde of monsters.

Dark. Colorless. I mean, faceless creatures they are. They are coming into the army.

What the fuck is going on?

"What are those shits?!" I asked her.

My life is very bad with this shits. Faceless. Imagine, from where they breathe. It is a funny thing to say. Do they breathe from their asses? I smirk.

"What are you going to do?" I asked her.

Her sword is glowing in red.

Damn! I need this weapon.

Suddenly, that same phenomenon happened in our fight. It felt like the space had bent itself which allows to shorten the distance between her and her opponent.

She swung her sword.

Most of the horde was wiped out from just one slash.

She is killing those monsters.

"Bogieman. Those are children eating monsters!" Kalki's voice comes in my ear buds.

"Weird monsters for sure" I said in a laugh.

We both laughed.

"I want to ask you something, Kalki"

"Ask anything, my dear friend," he told me.

Even though Joan had given me category scales to measure an Adaptae. But as usual, powers can make any shit useless.

The final piece to my story is my skill—gamer eyes.

Supernatural phenomenon created by Adaptae.

"Which categories can superpowers divide into?" This is my question for sure.

"Superpowers of an Adaptae is basically his/her existence. We still don't know how the power manifested and manifested on what basis. We still don't know if those powers are random or they are born from desires" Kalki told me.

"Still, I need a hint on something. I want to know that"

"If you are insisting too much then let me explain how much information we have over the category of those powers. First is the attacking type, basically offensive powers, those powers which have greater destructive strength. Next is defending type, basically defensive powers, those powers which can provide you protection. Assisting type, basically supportive powers, those powers which help you in battles" Kalki enlightened me with another lore.

"That's all. Let me guess, my power is the attacking type, right?" I asked him.

"Yes. You are the attacking type. Orion, who we met in Turkey, is a defensive type because if it was an offensive or supportive one in battle then it shouldn't have that much durability to tank so many attacks" he told me.

My mind just wants information. Even though this information would be enough for me, I desire more.

"What's the relation? How can I counter them?"

"Well, you think of it like a rock-paper-scissors where three of them counter each other. Defense tank up all attacks, support sneaking behind defense and attack destroy the support. That's the counter. Your power can work up against supportive types. But there is one type which is beyond those categories because this type doesn't share any sort of weakness with them" Kalki told me.

A type that is beyond those types. That's unfair. A power that doesn't get counter by any of them. It is like op shit.

"What's that power?"

I want to gain all the information because she is done with those enemies.

"It is hax type"
