<h4>Chapter 265: Crack down (6)</h4>


    The entrance to the meeting room was still engulfed in smoke, and to avoid getting taken by surprise, they ignored the dagger when they saw it wasn''t going for someone, but that was ke''s n.


    As the void dagger flew across the room, a spatial tear opened and 4 fire chains shot out aiming for the heads of 4 bandits.


    As the chains shot out the second inmand Fin sensed the fire spell and reacted by dashing towards the nearest target and deflecting the fire chain with a burst of wind.


    As for the other 3 gang members were facing the door when they wrapped on their heads and exploded, sending bits of their brain and flesh flying all around the room.


    The gang members were confused about how their fellow members had died, but that was when they turned to the dagger that had dug into the other end of the wall.


    That was when 2 me bursts came flying through the door, but Fin has already expected something like this.


    Earth eruption!


    Stomping his foot on the floor, 2yers of earth walls erupted from below.


    BOOM! BOOM!


    Bothyers of walls were sted into pieces by the first meburst, and the second one continued unhindered, but soon a rain of spells stopped it in its tracks.


    Zzzg! Zzzg!


    "Ahh!" They heard the sound of the crackling lightning followed by the sound of a scream.


    The gang members turned around, only to see the hand of a ck-haired boy on the head of a member who was being electrocuted.


    "Is that where your boss is?" ke pointed to the door some meters behind him.


    "What business do you have with our boss?" Fin asked with a frown on his face.


    "What else? I am here to kill him and you all." ke chuckled aloud as he let go of the gang member whose body was now charred and stiff.


    THUD!


    "So who do you guys want me to kill first? You guys or give you all a head start by killing your boss first." ke said with a smirk on his face.


    ''This is the one that has been ughtering everyone?'' Fin was stunned and afraid at the same time. Although ke seemed to be quite young, he felt a dangerous auraing from him.


    As for the option of running away. It wasn''t an option at all because in situations like this they would be easily picked off. Also, there was always a way that the boy would catch up to them.


    "Attack him!" Fin made up his mind and gave out amand.


    "This is where you should think outside the box. Suicide was a better option than the other too." ke couldn''t help but shake his head when he saw the gang membersing at him.


    ''Activate Mind boost.'' The intensity of the lightning arcs increased as ke''s eyes began glowing blue.


    He threw out a void dagger at Fin, who managed to dodge it at the nick of time, but this only made ke smile.


    Void shift.


    A spatial tear appeared beside ke, and he lunged his hand inside and came out of a spatial tear at the path of void dagger.


    ''Gotcha!'' ke grabbed the head of a gang member who was passing by and dragged it into the spatial tear before closing it.


    ''Nasty.'' ke dropped the head but didn''t move out of the way.


    Wind de!


    Earth spikes!


    Ding!


    The space in front of ke froze, the wind de crashed into it, but not leaving a dent, same as the rows of earth spikes that came his way.


    ''Time to get serious.'' With the exponential increase of his mental power, the frozen space began expanding at such a terrifying speed, that before they could react it had boxed them in.


    Out of instinct, the gang members began firing spells at the frozen space, but their attacks were hardly leaving a dent on it.


    "Resistance is futile." ke said as Ebony and Ivory appeared in his hands and a space on the frozen space opened up and he walked in.


    ke dashed forward, and in the blink of an eye he had appeared beside 1 of 4 gang members and beheaded him before he could react.


    The other 2 including fin began throwing out everything they had but ke was so fast that he only dodge them at thest moment, making it look as if the spells were knowingly avoiding him.


    SWISH! SWISH!


    Just as fin was trying to keep track of ke''s position, the head of the 2 other bandits dropped to the floor.


    "Shit!" Not wasting time, Fin conjured an earth dome to protect him, but ke swung ebony at the upper part of the dome, cutting it off and beheading Fin in the process.


    "By now, Castiel should be done with the other side. Meaning we are finally at 69/70." ke said as he opened the door to the boss'' office and it was empty, but he wasn''t worried.


    With heat vision, ke could see he was in another room by the side desk, but there seemed to be no door.


    ''I could just blow it up, but let''s increase his fear." ke smiled as a irvoyant ash light formed a trail of light that pointed to themp on the wooden desk.


    ke walked up to themp and saw that it was protected by a low level array, but he instantly cracked it and the wall slid open.


    BOOM!


    A fire ball came flying out of the door but it crashed into a frozen space.


    "You guys are too predictable." ke said as he walked into the room and saw different power crystals ced at nodes of arge array inscribed on the ground.


    At one corner of the room was a smaller array inscribed on a metal that could fit one person. Straight away ke knew it was a warp array.


    "How much were you paid, I can double it." The Boss said to ke.


    ke first took a look at the boss who had a brown gelled hair and a butt chin, before speaking. "You see, at the moment I am notcking gold coins. By the way I know you want to buy time so when the core restarts you can leave."


    "Everyone has a price, name it." At this point, the boss knew that escaping was no longer an option. So he tried to negotiating and if that was to fail. Thest option was to fight to the death.


    "I need contribution points and fame while having my freedom. Those 2 things are something you can''t offer." ke said as he brought out a mana disruptor and ced it on the wall beside him.


    ''What are you trying to do? Do you want to kill us both?" The ck scorpion gang boss began sweating when he saw the mana disruptor.


    Using a mana disruptor would shut down arrays and power cores that didn''t have proper protection. In this case, using one when a core was restarting would make it unstable and cause an explosion.


    "No, just you." ke sealed the exit by freezing the space around it, before freezing the space around the boss to prevent him from leaving the room.


    "Oh, I forgot to tell you that you had a nice ce." ke who had activated the mana disruptor stepped back into the wall, appearing back at the meeting room. Using the system''s detection range ke waited till thest moment before dispelling space freeze in other to maximize damage.


    BOOM!


    The core exploded sending out massive shockwaves that shook the entire hideout.


    "Surprising that he managed to survive that..." ke said as he walked towards the office.


    Just like every building, the walls of the sewer had been reinforced with arrays while it was being constructed. Also, when the hideout was being constructed they had also reinforced it furthermore.


    This prevented the hideout from copsing from the explosion, but for sure it had destroyed everything in the office and the hidden room.


    "You should have just died and saved yourself the pain." ke shook his head as he walked up to the gang boss who was on the floor and was bleeding from all parts of his body.


    He didn''t waste any more time as he stabbed the helpless gang boss, before retrieving his void daggers and regrouping with the others.
