People drifted further apart as the two beams of power from high-ranking hunters clashed against each other. However, one feels more dominant than the opponent. Moreover, the number of one party more. Obviously, one could immediately guess who would win, if the two sides clashed and what would happen to the area around was destruction.
"An investigator is always weak, aren't you..." mocked the man who looked cynically at Nisa, who seemed to be sweating just by holding back the pressure from his chaotic energy radiance.
However-...
"Oh really?" said a man who was quite handsome and wearing a black coat suddenly entered the chaotic area. He looked sharply at the man who had just mocked the investigator's reputation. He also emitted a slightly greater chaotic energy than the man.
"Commander..." Nisa muttered with a slightly relieved heart, because finally someone was willing to help her in this dispute. Although basically, there is no obligation as an investigator to directly maintain security. But, it seems that Dadan also has a better judgmental side of the situation than most people.
"Hoo... Let me guess, you're Dadan huh? The Golden Lion of the Hunters Guild..."
The man did not hesitate to call his name directly, as if he did not care about Dadan's position as an investigator commander.
"A rank B hunter, Ryan the Raging Storm huh? Even so, if you know me, it's best if you don't prolong this matter. I don't know what happened, but whatever it is, it's still with my assistant. I know this woman very well, she can't do anything wrong for no reason..." said Dadan who sensed precisely the chaotic energy capacity emitted by Ryan, the boss of the Scratched Eyebrow Team.
If the problem persists, Dadan is not sure he can solve it right now. For sure, there will be injuries from both sides here and the problem will only widen.
"Hoo... You guessed it right, Dadan. You're also right about your innocent Beauty Assistant. She's just protecting the girl behind, whereas that shouldn't be her job, right? She needs to learn a lesson from me. I hope you don't interfere..." explained Ryan who didn't seem to be playing with his words. His gaze was sharp with a pair of equally sharp eyes looking at him.
At that time, Dadan was thinking hard behind his sharp eyes about the decision he was about to make. However, there is currently no evidence the man committed a crime, so he cannot report this incident to the authorities. He himself doesn't really know the problems that are happening right now, while he needs a time with Nisa to talk about this problem.
"I asked for a moment to discuss this with my assistant..." Dadan said, that's what he thought. Information is the solution to be able to solve problems!
"Please. I'm a kind and patient man..." Ryan said loudly.
Dadan seems to be having quite a serious conversation with Nisa after he asked her to keep her distance from the scene. He himself even slightly forced Nisa to come with him, because that way, Scratched Eyebrow Team would freely play with Alina and Nathan.
"Boss, may we take care of the little girl?" Seeing that the situation was in his boss's grasp, the man who had previously been provoked by his emotions wanted to restart his actions.
"Do what you want. After all, she's not my type. Too tiny. My target is the beautiful woman who is with Dadan..." Ryan said curtly, apparently he wasn't sedated by Alina's charm or indeed his taste was the type of woman like Nisa who was more mature. He returned to the center row to observe the situation as before.
"I don't need to be nice anymore. As it turned out, this tall man was not her father. It's disappointing and also a relief. But, we can have fun with her without feeling awkward..." said the man.
"That's right, my friend. I'm coming with you!"
After observing the situation, Nathan finally saw the weakness of the Scratched Eyebrow Team. He thought he could solve this matter very quickly without bothering to deal with all of them. His gaze focused on the man named Ryan with the nickname Raging Storm. His dark red eyes pierced the man's eyes without anyone noticing, including the target himself.
Ryan was shocked when he realized he didn't see anything around him. But he soon regained his composure. He thought this was just an illusion deliberately aimed at him by someone.
Someone stronger than an illusion user could actually break this technique easily. The illusion will not be able to physically harm the target, as it basically only attacks the opponent's mind. However, there was something strange about the chaotic energy in his body that he couldn't feel as if he was just an ordinary human. Tried to use his skills, but couldn't.
Obviously, Ryan was feeling uneasy.
"Whoever you are, quickly show yourself. You are a coward!" Ryan didn't want to show his nervousness, as if he still had a card to use in a crisis.
"You're really impatient, aren't you..."
Nathan suddenly appeared from the darkness. His dark red eyes seemed very scary in Ryan's eyes. To the point, Ryan was stiff without being able to move a finger for some time and could only stare at the Red-Eyed Man who had suddenly appeared.
"Where did your previous assertiveness go?"
After Nathan appeared, he just stood there and did nothing more after getting close enough to Ryan.
Only with his eyes glaring at Ryan, making it seem as if Ryan was being stared at by a lion with his helpless self about to be devoured in full awareness, it seemed that everything was worth it according to Nathan.
"I-I-I... Y-you were the guy from earlier, weren't you?" he asked in a voice that faltered and quivered so as to make it inaudible. His guts were really tested right then and there. Cold sweat couldn't lie to him that Ryan was really depressed and scared right now.
'Oh shit... I've offended the wrong person. I can't feel the power of this man doesn't mean he's an ordinary human. He is someone who is strong beyond!' Ryan regretted, his heart was screaming wildly.
Being under pressure like this, the world will feel slow to spin. Ryan was like he had been in a helpless state for so long, like he was falling into an endless deep and dark abyss. He even forgot that he was standing weakly now, looking like he might fall at any moment.
Really, his gaze currently looks blank with his pale face.
Seeing Ryan as a dead man, Nathan felt guilty. He felt it was too much to teach the man a lesson. It was still difficult to adapt his strength to the level of this world's power. Too weak for him, so that him using only a speck of dust from his strength had made a rank B hunter behave like he saw a grim reaper about to take his life.
"My apologies, Sir Raging Storm. I did it by accident. Actually, I'm doing this just to tell you that what you and your men did was wrong. Moreover, you guys are disturbing Miss Alina who is my first acquaintance. Please, order your friends to be nicer to her..." Nathan said with his eyes closed.
This allowed Ryan to breathe a sigh of relief and regain consciousness.
"O-of course. I'll do it..." Ryan said quickly and straightforwardly, not wanting to stay in this dark place any longer, especially dealing with Nathan who he thought, The Red-Eyed Man was too scary to be an enemy.
"Thank you..."
After Nathan thanked him, he returned it to the way it was that Ryan was now standing in the midst of the others.
Ryan suddenly screamed so loudly that it shocked those who heard him. He stopped the actions of his subordinates who were disturbing Alina and Nathan until they shouted at them, regardless of the stares of the people who were frowning in astonishment.
But seeing Ryan who was their boss behave like that as if he was really afraid of something, they just obeyed him with a heavy heart.
"He's a monster..." Ryan mumbled the three words over and over like crazy and kept on being heard by his men. Suddenly they spontaneously kept their distance, for fear that the boss had gone crazy for some reason.
"What's with the boss?"
"Who knows..."
After they left, then Dadan came with Nisa.
