Bitter battle fighting a primal being part 1

In a tavern in the slums.

 

Three men were drinking happily, the good-looking women were looking coquettishly at the commander, he sometimes ran his broad hands over the slim waists of the women beside him who were serving drinks.

 

The commander's appearance suddenly changed, the two men beside him noticed the commander's sudden strangeness, the vice commander asked cautiously.

 

" Commander, what do you hear?"

 

The commander signaled to the women, and they left, leaving only the three of them at the table, the commander spoke with a frown.

 

" Someone died on team B."

 

"How?" the vice-commander asked.

 

"The slave contract has been broken, that can only mean he's dead. You two go take a look, bring me the wolf family at all costs."

 

The two got up and were about to leave, but the commander, after thinking better of it, stopped them, saying.

 

"Wait. "

 

The two stopped and looked at the commander, he stood up and said.

 

"I'll handle it personally. This matter is very important. We can't return to headquarters without the merchandise. You'll meet me at the eastern exit of the city in an hour."

 

A breath of air blew and the commander left the tavern and disappeared.

 

***

 

Jumping from rooftop to rooftop in the favelas, the commander arrived in the darkest area, he arrived in time to witness John and Alex kill the Bandits.

 

The commander watched his men being killed one by one, but he did nothing to help them, he just watched.

 

The commander used his sonar throughout the battlefield and surroundings, he didn't feel anyone powerful nearby, he concentrated with his sonar he could feel everything around him , he stayed inside the cabin and could feel three people.

 

When the commander detected the people inside the hut, he sighed and his worry disappeared, after his men were killed, he checked everything once more using his sonar to make sure there was no hidden threat, only then did he move out of the darkness, he applauded and walked up to the children who had just killed his men, with a cold look, he asked.

 

"Did you kill my men?

 

In fact, the commander was not at all interested in the answer, he also did not care about his dead men, what he cared about was the wolf family, he did not want to leave witnesses so he would undoubtedly kill these children and take the wolf family with him.

Inside the wolf family's cabin.

 

As soon as Iza heard John's signal, she didn't hesitate, she simply ran without looking back at that point, she placed all her hopes and trust in the hands of John and Alex, she ran and managed to enter the cabin.

 

When Isa entered she looked around and found her mother and aunt, they were tied up unconscious.

 

" Mom, aunt."

 

Tears streamed down Iza's face as she untied the two, they had thick ropes tying their hands and feet, their eyes were blindfolded and a cloth covered their mouths, there were no signs of aggression on them.

 

Isa used her teeth to cut the ropes. It took some time, as she was very tense and anxious. If she calmed down , she would realize she could use a knife, and the process would be quicker and smoother. After cutting the ropes that bound her mother and aunt, she picked up some medicinal plants.

 

After the unconscious women smelled the plants, they gradually regained consciousness. When Isa's mother's eyes slowly opened, she saw her daughter crying and smiling at the same time. In the confusion, her memories returned, her already pale face becoming even paler.

 

" Izabela , what are you doing here? The bandits, you have to hurry and run away."

 

Isa's mother was confused. She looked around and all she saw was themselves. There was no sign of any bandits. She remembered what happened before she fainted, and everything she heard contrasted with the current situation. She looked at Isa, wiped away her tears, and asked.

 

"Isabela, what are you listening to?"

 

Isa's aunt was also equally perplexed, she asked the same question.

 

" Isa, what happened? "

 

Isa, listening to her mother and aunt's questions, spilled the beans and told everything that happened. Of course, she summarized the whole story and omitted some parts, but in short, she told everything that was important.

 

"Mom, aunt, that's what happened. Now we have to get out of here.

 

Isa spoke and headed to the door, in an opening, she saw the moment when John watched Alex recover, a joy welled up in her heart, she stopped peeking and told her mother and aunt.

 

" Let's go, we have to leave as quickly as possible, we can't stay here any longer, we didn't know if there were any more bandits coming."

 

Isa's mother spoke, Isa went to a secret place in the room and took a ring that, for her, was not worth a gold, she together with her aunt helped her sick mother to walk to the door.

 

When the three of them left the cabin, they saw a man in front of Alex and John, both of them were trembling, their steps froze because the man looked at them as if someone hungry had suddenly found good rice and beans.

 

***

 

John realized that at this moment their lives and deaths were not under his control. He felt something he had never felt before: helplessness. That was what he was feeling now. The man before him seemed to hold his life in his hands. John tried his luck by revealing his identity. If he was lucky, he would only be beaten, not killed. He said trembling.

 

" Illustrious sir, I am.. "

 

A cold voice sounded, interrupting John from finishing his words.

 

" No matter who you are, you will die today."

 

The commander wanted to say something else, but he held himself back. He looked towards the cabin, three people were coming out of it. The commander's look seemed very strange, but John recognized this look as the look of someone who is going to eat rice and beans today.

 

Suddenly, smoke came out of the commander's pores, the smoke condensed in his palms, he pointed at the three and the smoke flew towards them, the smoke covered the three and began to infiltrate their bodies through their mouths, noses and ears.

 

The three were paralyzed, they tried to move but without success, Isa's mother tried to use her core to resist the smoke, but the core did not absorb any spiritual energy so it could not condense any element, they were all in the hands of the commander.

While everyone felt helpless, unable to do anything, the commander felt like a god, deciding who lives and who dies. When Alex saw what the commander had done, he spoke out.

 

" Warrior of darkness."

 

The man looked at Alex with some interest. John bit his lip, blood trickling down, but he was no longer shaking and was somewhat calmer. However, his heart was still beating fast, and he could feel his life slipping away.

 

" Warrior of Darkness?"

 

John asked, Alex replied with sadness on his face, he knew his end had come.

 

"Warrior of darkness, a path of darkness, those who follow this path are mostly bloodthirsty, they love to torture and kill their victims with great pain."

 

" I thought it was just a rumor, that mercenaries who had in their possession the path of darkness, warrior of darkness, were in the slums, after all the rumors are all true ."

 

When John heard this, he felt even more helpless. He hoped for a miracle to happen at this moment, but nothing did. The commander looked at Alex and gave a twisted smile with a bloodthirsty look in his eyes.

 

"Kid, you know the ways of darkness. You've done your homework very well, even though you're just a child. It seems your training isn't simple, so I'll give you a little surprise."

 

The commander pointed his finger at John and said.

 

" Your friend will be first, I'll leave you for last. What do you think? A good gift, isn't it?

 

Alex's face fell. He preferred to be first, it would spare him from seeing his young lord tortured. By the end of the day, Alex had already decided to follow John in the future. When the commander saw the expression on Alex's face, he rejoiced. What he liked most was seeing a terrified face.

 

"Do you care about this boy? Very well, since you care about him, let's enjoy his death and suffering together ." The commander laughed heartily.

 

John felt worse and worse, at death's door, what else could he do? He then made a decision. He looked at Alex and formed a smile. Both the commander and Alex understood what John wanted to do. Since I'm going to die anyway, it's better for me to commit suicide than to be killed by this maniac. John tried to commit suicide by biting his tongue.

 

" Hahahah.hahahah ."

 

An evil laugh that gave anyone goosebumps sounded, in the middle of some words.

 

"Have I, the Lord your God, given you permission to commit suicide?"

 

After speaking, the commander released his aura, his core spun, absorbing spiritual energy and condensing dark elements, a black mist came out of the commander's body and adorned itself on Alex and John's bodies, paralyzing them.
