The Dark Slayer's

[S3] Chapter 17: Night

Leon and his friends—including Ni—shade inside this unused building until evening. In front of the broken window, Sun stared outside watching whether there were enemies or not.

Everything is so calm, the sun will soon be completely sunk, and maybe tonight they will stay here until tomorrow. Sun let out a long sigh then returned to the place where his friends were.

“It looks like tonight we better spend the night here only. The situation out there is calm, but what a harm be careful. I'm afraid that if we walk at night, a Tack will stop us,” Sun said as he sat next to Leon.

“No, Sun! We will wander right at midnight,” argued Leon.

“Are you crazy?” Sun stood up and grabbed Leon's collar. “You may not know, but that Tack is not a creature we can deal with!”

“Looking at midnight would be better because we don't feel the temperature so hot.”

“I'd rather face the heat than face Tack!”

Although he understood that maybe Tack was strong enough, Leon was still curious as to what exactly the creature was. Previously, he had read about extraterrestrials that attacked this earth, but still did not see how the image of Tack. After asking here and there, an answer he finally got. The reason why the creature named Tack is not shown in the book is because no one knows what it is.

At the time of reading the article about Tack, there are only black images displayed with the article. From this, Leon thinks whether Tack is a creature shaped like a shadow without the original shape?

“Although you keep raving about Tack, you don't know the creature yet, do you?” A question was asked by Leon to Sun.

“It ...” Sun hesitated to answer. “You're right, I've never seen it. But, in the article it is written that these creatures always appear at night like they are patrolling. His strength was also not inferior to Tan.”

“Think carefully, Sun. If we move during the day, there are two problems. First, the sunlight is so stinging, and the possibility of meeting Tan is also high.”

“Yes, that's right. But do you think about the problem of moving at night. We will have trouble seeing enemies without the help of flashlights!”

“Injurious. Can't you guys see at night?” Leon tilted his head.

Sun finally removed his hand from Leon's clothes collar. “We are just ordinary soldiers, there is no way we can do it. It is true that we are stronger than ordinary humans, but to be able to see clearly at night can only be done by level 2 Energy Eaters and above. And of course the Fantasy Creature.”

“Then, we have no choice but to move in the morning.” In the end Leon decided to move in the morning. He does not want to endanger the lives of others to achieve his goals.

Leisurely putting his hands in his pants pocket, Leon walked towards the window. He was silent and then looked around. The situation was so calm, so calm that it made him get a bad feeling.

“Argh!”

Leon then turned to the back of the source of the screaming voice. Several explosions occur, dust flying around to make Leon difficult to see.

“Sial! There is ap—” Not yet Leon finished his sentence, he has bounced far into the wall to get out of the building.

Still unable to understand the situation, Leon once again received a blow to the stomach until it crashed on the ground. “Argh ...” His eyes were closed, and blood came out of his mouth.

At high speed, a shadow-like figure approached to attack Leon again. However, the young man immediately got up then launched a punch upwards, clashing directly with the punch of the attacking figure.

“Argh!” Leon staggered back. His right hand trembled violently after receiving the attack earlier. “Sial! Very strong he!”

Ellise, can you trace the whereabouts of our enemy? Leon immediately asked Ellise for help.

I'm looking for .... Ellise concentrated on strength, then, Leon! Up ahead!

Whahuh? Leon had not had time to react, a blow managed to throw him again on the wall of the building. “Job ...” Leon was about to get up, then a shadow-like figure shot back as fast as lightning.

But this time it was different. “You will never forgive me!” The figure that attacked like a shadow earlier was immediately locked inside Leon's black sphere. “Haah .. haah .. haah ...” Now Leon is so exhausted from the consecutive attacks.

Leon wiped the blood on his mouth while adjusting his breath. A little relieved to be able to lock up his current opponent. “Now I have to save those imbeciles.”

With slow steps, Leon walks towards the building where his friends were attacked. His condition was now indeed injured, but he still insisted on saving those around him.

Hey, you better get out of here. Otherwise, you could die! Ellise was very worried about Leon.

No, Ellise.

But with your condition this ....

I know, but I have to.

Both Leon and Ellise are aware that Leon's condition is still not stable after defeating Tan at that time. The two of them also did not expect that Ellise's soul attack at that time turned out to shake Leon's soul as well.

For now, Leon had not been able to bring out his strength completely. In addition, dealing with Vord is what makes both of them realize that Leon's strength becomes unstable because his soul is shaken.

Ellise, if things get worse, use your soul attacks again using my power.

You insane? Or do you intend to die?

I'm not gonna die. Please understand. If I lose another friend, what does all this mean?

Leon .... Leon's words made Ellise powerless to resist. All right, but if I think it's too dangerous, you don't expect me to grant it. Suddenly Ellise realized something. Leon, in the back!

“Hia!” Leon turned around immediately. The second time he fought a blow with a figure who became his opponent. Damn ... It looks like this creature's skin is much harder than Vord's.

In the blink of an eye, Leon lost his enemy again. His eyes could only see that the creature was black, and he still could not see the eyes of the enemy directly.

However, chaos also occurred on the other side of the building. The sound of a wall collapse can be heard by Leon, but here he deals with other enemies so that he cannot help his friend.

“This sucks! I have to save my friends immediately.” Leon glanced over here and there, trying to find the enemy's whereabouts.

Sorry in advance for the erratic update. Yesterday my condition worsened a little so it was not updated, and today I am forcing for an update. Hope you like this chapter.
