As the four of them flew in the direction of the modified labyrinth. The scene where demons were rampaging became frequent.
"Lightning Slash!"
Another demon fell under the sharp slash of purple lightning.
Along the way, they saved many people. But the number of demons they encountered became too much.
"Just what is going on? How can there be so many demons?" Aurora said in annoyance. As she used the blood of the dead demons to kill the other demons.
"It seems the demons are mostly concentrated near the labyrinth," Alice uttered, sensing the chaos.
Shin's expression was also quite serious, "We have to hurry."
With those words, he used Gravity Control with all his strength, and his speed of flying increased by several bounds.
"It's not just simply a modified labyrinth anymore. It looks more like a Haunted Castle." Emily couldn't help but exclaim.
When they were just a mile away from the modified labyrinth, the scene in front of them made them solemn.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHundreds of demons were there, blocking their way. Just when the thought of flying past them crossed their mind, a strange energy emerged from inside the labyrinth, enveloping all the demons. One by one, bat-like wings emerged from the back of all the demons. Their bodies grew stronger and the demonic energy inside them burst out.
*Roarrr*
They started roaring, feeling the immense strength inside their bodies, and their roars scared the people hiding in the underground bunkers.
"Are we going to die?"
"Oh no, God bless us."
"Mommy, I'm scared."
"Calm down baby, everything will be fine." Although the mother said that, there was no hope in her eyes.
While they were still praying, their hearts were filled with despair. In the corner, a teenage boy wearing square-framed glasses was looking at a hologram projection in front of him.
His name is Eddie Jones, a little above average high schooler but also a special ability awakened. His ability is called Live Streamer. With this, he could watch and share the live projection of anything happening in his 5 km radius. There might be some other functions, but he doesn't know yet because his strength is too weak and he doesn't dare mess around.
Hence, he just tries to watch interesting things occurring near him with his ability. You can call him an observer who likes to observe things sitting at his home.
This day was the same as usual. He was using his ability to observe all the things happening inside the school. Most of the time there is nothing interesting to see, so he just enjoys the gossip.
But today hell broke out. Those dangerous monsters appeared and started killing everyone.
Only from the mouth of some analysis-type ability awakened did he know that they were demons.
Eddie was scared. As he ran, he saw some of his classmates dying at the hands of those demons. To survive, Eddie used his ability to the max and did his best to avoid the demons. And found his way safely to the underground bunker.
On his way, he also found two of his friends and brought them with him. Although they were safe for the moment, as the demons didn't attack the people underground. But the people on the outside experienced hell. Eddie saw with his ability. There was no end to those demons.
They keep coming out of the demonic castle and killing everyone they came across.
When he saw those frightening scenes full of blood and gore in the projection, Eddie vomited.
His entire body was numb, worried that they might be the next to die.
Soon after, all the people in his range of ability either hid inside the bunkers or died.
As time passed, more and more demons started coming out of that demonic castle. The situation became desperate and the light of hope was getting dimmer.
When Eddie was constantly keeping an eye on the demon's situation. Waiting for an opportunity to escape.
That's when he saw four people appear in the sky.
'Wow, they can fly.' He was very envious of their ability to fly. But then he wondered.
'What are to doing here?' If they can fly, shouldn't they try to escape themselves? From his observation, he can see there were no demons with the ability to fly, so they have the power to escape.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnly if he had that ability he would have escaped already.
But then he noticed something weird, that group of people were coming closer and closer to the castle.
'What are they doing?' Eddie was confused, then a ridiculous thought appeared in his mind.
'They are not here to fight, right?'
Even if he thought that there was no hope in his eyes. Only sadness and grief.
'If he could somehow warn them. Maybe they would not come to die here.'
He has seen many similar scenes where awakeneds tried to face the demons. But even if they banded together, dozens of awakeneds could barely take down one demon and here there is an army of demons. Forget a hundred. Even a thousand awakened may die here. So how can he expect anything from a group of four?
'At least they can fly. Maybe if they see the army of demons, they will turn back.'
But the next moment, he saw something in the hologram and couldn't help but exclaim.
"OMG!"
His sudden reaction caught everyone's attention. They looked at him in confusion. Wondering, did the teenage boy finally lose his mind?
They weren't surprised. It was very normal in this situation. But a middle-aged man with a caring look still asked, "What happened, boy? Are you okay?"
Eddie looked at the kind-looking old man in front of him and didn't say anything. Instead, he waved his hand, and the next moment a huge protection the size of a small movie theatre screen appeared in front of them.
Everyone was surprised, some were vigilant, but Eddie's explanation calmed them down.
"It's my ability. I can watch the scene outside."
When the people inside the bunker heard this, they immediately nodded their heads in understanding.
