"Boss, I feel a malicious intent directed towards us." Said Nick as he and his brothers got up and began to scan the surroundings.
"Huh, you felt it too," I said while looking at the cloaked figure across the street. Her murderous intent was directed toward me, so once I took notice of it wasn\'t hard for me to find her.
"What are you kids talking about?" Even though Denise was a silver grade grimoire Card Grandmaster, she did not possess the viltronian fighting instincts which every my calamity soul gem and clarity daughter gems had. Viltronians are a spice that has gone through constant war such that fighting instinct is ingrained in their DNA through evolution.
"Chief Denise, it would be a great help if you start evacuating the people from here. This place is going to turn into a war zone soon." I got up and headed towards the cloaked figure. I saw a single-horn sticking out of the hood covering its head. Alerted, I activated my soul pupils to check what kind of enemy I was facing.
*Booom!*
Before I got the chance to use my soul pupils on the hooded figure, it burst into a gore shower. Spreading mayhem on the street.
*Ahhh!*
The people who were tainted by the gore shower slowly dissolved in gore within a matter of seconds. Soon all the blood and gore began to gather, forming a pool of blood. Once all the pool of blood was created, it emitted a blood-red beam of light reaching the sky. Soon various deformed beings began to crawl out of the blood pool and walked out of the red light beam. Ignoring the people nearest to them, they rushed towards me. It became clear to me that I was their target.
Being adept in blood rule, I knew that the cloaked figure seemed to have sacrificed itself by detonating to start a blood ritual to summon these deformed monsters. But the problem was I did not feel the presence of blood rule from the blood pool, which meant the cloaked figure did not make use of blood rule to summon the deformed creatures but something else veil to describe.
"Demonic Card apprentice!" Denise exclaimed, seeing the blood ritual, and hurriedly summoned her grimoire to report to the headquarters and request back up.
"Boss, leave it to us. We will take care of it." Said Nick as he summoned his grimoire.
"Good. While Nick and Tom handle the veil creatures, Ed, you help Chief Denise to clear the civilians." I ordered, and the calamity daughter gems nodded in agreement.
"No, kids, it\'s dangerous here, retreat. And leave this for the adults to handle." Seeing Nick and Tom charge toward the deformed creatures, Denise cried out, asking them not to act recklessly and retreat. But Nick and Tom did not respond to her. Instead, they summoned their grimoire and activated their origin cards.
"Summon - Mountain Golem"
"Summon - Mud Golem"
"Chief, my brothers can handle them. Now let\'s focus on clearing the civilians." Ed replied to the frantic Denise as he rushed towards those in need of help.
"Chief Denise, the creatures are of card soldier realm. My boys can handle it. Please go and help the civilians till the back arrives. This is just the beginning." I directed Denise, reminding her that the civilians needed to be cleared because whoever was behind this mayhem was not done.
I knew that the perpetrators were far from done because it was clear that I was the target. So whoever the perpetrators are, they should know that I am almost invisible under the card overlord realm. Despite knowing that, why would they send summoned creatures of the card soldier realm to deal with me?
Their intention was clear to create chaos and distract people\'s focus. Making a perfect hunting ground for their target. All that mattered was how long the perps would continue to hide patiently and when they would commence their hunt.
Thankfully I had soul pupils, so I did not need to play with their rules. I will find them and make use of the hunting grounds they made to hunt them. After all, I did not like to wait for death or follow others\' rules.
I achieved my soul pupils to look beyond the mayhem in front of me. The colorful world turned into one large black tray filled with strings. And compare what I saw with my soul pupils to what I saw with my name eyes. It was like finding the difference between the two images. And I did, in the sight of my soul pupil, I had an extra soul pathway that did not seem to belong to any entity in the view of my naked eye.
It was clear the soul pathway belonged to the perpetrator, who was hiding and witnessing the chaos he had unleashed on the peaceful street. I further analyze the soul pathways of the perp to check the race and realm. To my surprise, I found a core within the perp\'s body. It was surprising because the perp was human, not a monster.
Yes, a core. Not an ego gem but a core. This is the first time I have seen a human with a core. It appeared to be slightly similar to viltrionian but not entirely identical. The viltronian core fuses with its host perfectly, but the core I saw in the middle of the perp\'s soul pathway was not fusing correctly with the host\'s soul pathway causing mutations and deformation in the host\'s body.
It seems that the perp has acute senses as it discovered that I had found it. I thought it would run since I had found it, but it walked out of the hiding spot and revealed itself. It was another cloaked figure with a horn extending out of its hood. Exactly the same as the one that detonated itself as the sacrifice to start a blood ritual and summon the deformed creatures.
