Chapter 30 - The Perfect Blessing

Kelvin calmly took a few knifes and a hand grenade and rushed straight at Kenji.

"You damn bastard! I'll teach ya a lesson!"

Kevin threw the knifes at him but Kenji dodged all of them with minimal movement, only dodging by a few centimeters. As soon as kelvin saw that he had dodged all of his attacks, he threw the hand grenade in a desperate attempt, thinking that it will kill him.

But Kenji neither dodged, he kept approaching him and when the hand grenade exploded, he simply walked through it with torn clothes as if it was merely smoke. 

"What the hell are ya?!" Kelvin said, jumping off the window, trying to escape but Kenji teleported to the ground and caught him just in time before he could hide in the bushes.

He instantly cut off both of his hands, making Kelvin scream in pain.

Kelvin then yelled, "Realm of-"

But before he could complete his sentence, Kenji cut his tongue.

"Oh? Do you have powers? Not only that but you can use a realm? Impressive."

In the very next moment, Kelvin shattered into a thousand pieces, killing him right there.

"I shouldn't have cut off his tongue, I could have asked him about where I was" Kenji said to himself.

"I could tell you that" A small child said. "My power can locate people."

Kenji immediately turned in the direction of the child, his eyes in shock.

"A child?! What are you doing here?" He asked.

Meanwhile, in Raven's mansion, Ana's eyes opened and she noticed that her hands were held up high by chains, not only that but she was completely naked.

"What the fuck?! Where am I?! Did Alex do this?!!!" Ana yelled, desperately trying to escape but it was futile.

After a small moment of struggling, Davis entered the room. "Oh, woken up?"

"Who are you?!!" Ana shouted. "HELP ME!"

"Help you? I definitely will" Davis said, leaning in, his voice dropping to a whisper. "By sending you to heaven, of course."

In the very next moment, blood spilled everywhere.

------------------------

Meanwhile, Ronx, Alex and Ken were slowly walking toward the southern direction, carefully avoiding any contact with the creatures. However, after walking for a few miles, eventually, a high-level creature saw them.

"Ken! Use your power" Alex said, getting behind Ken.

"O-Okay!" Ken said, who aimed both of his arms towards the creature with palms open and suddenly a green transparent glass wall appeared right in front of him. "Barrier!"

The creature which looked like a minotaur, hit his head with the glass wall and then tried to break it but not even a scratch appeared on the wall.

"Is this Ken's ability?" Ronx asked, his mouth open in awe.

"He probably has the strongest ability out of us three, he just can't use it that often and if he can, he can only make a barrier wall" Alex explained calmly, his eyes on the minotaur. "The stronger the person's mentality, the more powerful his ability becomes. If Ken's mentality was a bit stronger and better, he would have become a special grade."

"Damn, that's impressive" Ronx admitted, nodding.

"Haha, come on, you don't have say all that!" Ken said, blushing.

But before their conversation could continue, another high-level creature noticed them. This time, the high-level creature was some sort of a phoenix, which was the size of a three-story building. The phoenix didn't have much feather on itself and it looked extremely injured. 

"Ken, make a wall above us too!" Alex yelled.

"I can't make anymore walls!" Ken said, sweating nervously. 

"Let me try something" Ronx mumbled, creating a straight line of blood that he shot towards the phoenix. However, the phoenix dodged it easily by going to the side.

The high-level creature then created a ball of fire in it's beak and shot it towards the three of them.

"Tch, how annoying" Alex said, putting all of his power in his legs, launching himself towards the sky.

As the ball of fire and Alex was about to collide, He split the ball into two, creating a small gap in which Alex flew threw, making only a few feet below the phoenix. Alex used this opportunity by slashing the phoenix several times. 

Though, it only roared as it didn't do significant damage.

"Shit, I guess it was to be expected as this is a high-level creature" Alex said, gravity making him descent. 

Meanwhile, Ken's barrier started to crack as he couldn't hold it for any longer. "Ronx! I-It's about to break!"

"Don't worry, I got this" Ronx said, creating a sword out of blood. The sword was a dark red color and had an red ominous aura coming from it. It was the first time his weapon had an ominous aura to them. "Is...this my power getting stronger or this the doing of the being?" Ronx thought to himself.

But he couldn't think for long as the minotaur broke the wall with it's axe and came rushing straight at them. However, Ronx jumped in front of it and unleashed a dark red colored air slash that went through the minotaur, splitting the creature in half.

However, the minotaur started to heal, the two separate parts started to attach with each other, making them back to normal.

"Damn, I knew this wouldn't that easy, after all, this is a high-level creature after all, the same rank as the headless man" Ronx said to himself.

Meanwhile, Ken was trembling and couldn't stand due to his trembling legs. He closed his eyes, wanting to escape reality. "Please let it stop, I don't want this...the creatures are too powerful, we can't defeat them and even if we do, these are only high-level creatures and more and more powerful creatures appear once we get deeper into the peninsula...this is too much for me." Ken quickly mumbled, his body shaking.

But just then, he had closed his eyes and a message appeared in bold white text:
