n?Bill didn’t give Mako any time to recover as he ran forward to deliver another powerful kick.
nMako reacted quickly as he used his Earth ability to raise an Earth pillar from behind his back, launching him with just enough force to allow him to land up straight on his feet.
nHe quickly took on the fortified stance and blocked Bill’s incoming kick.
nMako had not sparred with Bill for quite some time and had no idea of his power level especially when his entire upper boy was glowing as he had unconsciously activated the second stage of his mutant gene.
nEven though Mako’s fortitude was quite high and he had activated his fortified stance, it didn’t matter as Mako was still sent flying backward into the wall from which he had just released
n“GUHHH!” Mako exclaimed as more blood leaked from his mouth.
nNext, it was Erin’s turn, whose eyes were shining bright white thanks to her ice-mutant gene.
nShe quickly conjured ice bullets that she loaded on her arm and started firing them at Mako.
nFlame Bullet has been activated
nFlame Bullet has been activated f𝚛𝐞𝐰en𝗼v𝚕.𝚌o𝐦
nFlame Bullet has been activated
nMako immediately countered Erin’s Ice gun skill by firing an equal amount of flame bullets without any charge.
nWithout charging his fingertips with fire aura before firing the flame bullet meant that the bullet carried the lowest amount of damage and explosive force which was actually beneficial for Mako as he didn’t want to cause any damage to his friends if he were to accidentally hit them.
nThanks to the heat of the flame bullets, the ice bullets melted in midair and were completely countered.
n“Wait… wait… Can we all just calm down for a minute? I didn’t do anything to Iris…” Mako tried to say to and clarify the misconception, but Bill didn’t stop for a second.
nAs soon as Mako countered Erin’s attack, Bill charged in once again to deal more blows to Mako.
nSprint has been activated
nAs Bill clocked back his arm to deliver a powerful punch, Mako ducked out of his way at the perfect moment and quickly used sprint to try and circle back around them towards the door.
nHowever, before he could even take 2 steps after dodging his punch, Bill quickly turned around and grabbed Mako by his hair, stopping him from running away.
nHe quickly summoned more strength from his mutant gene and pulled Mako by his hair with all his force.
nMako’s body was quickly raised off the ground as Bill pulled him over his own body and slam-dunked him on the concrete floor creating a massive crack and loud boom that echoed throughout the halls outside the room.
n-60 HP
nUser has sustained multiple fractures on their face and body with 5 broken teeth
nEmergency healing has been activated
nMako was very discombobulated after taking that hit and could barely process the status report of his own body that the system was displaying in front of his eyes.
nMako couldn’t understand what was going on around him and everything became a blur; however, this didn’t stop Erin from conjuring 2 ice spikes in her hands and jamming them into Mako’s back before he could even move much less recover.
n“AHHHHH!” Mako screamed in agony as the Ice spike penetrated his back, instantly reducing his healing speed as the cold slowed down his body’s circulation of blood and mana while causing excruciating amount of pain.
n-25 HP
nUser has been impaled from their back two times
nUser is bleeding
nEmergency Healing’s effectiveness reduced to 50%
n“Please… I was also chained to the wall! I didn’t hurt Iris! Why are you attacking me…?” Mako said weakly.
n“Liar!” Erin shouted as she continued to push the ice spikes deeper into Mako’s body,” We trusted you, Mako! We made you our leader! How could you betray us?! None of us could have ever believed that you were working with these low lives!”
n“What…?” Mako mustered enough strength to say while being horribly confused.
n“That’s enough from you!” Bill shouted as he gave rather kick to Mako’s face.
n*AGHHH!”
n“Did you really think we weren’t able to see you from down here?” Bill shouted with anger as pulled Mako’s hair to lift up his head so that they could talk face-to-face.
n“We saw you sadistically watching from the window on the wall as that bastard kept torturing us! We were trying to protect you! We kept our mouths shut thinking that you had come to save us but it was the opposite and now IRIS IS DEAD!” Bill added as he slammed Mako’s face back into the ground.
nMako had no idea what Bill was talking about. He had also been chained to the wall, everybody could see that and there were no widows in the room so how could Bill and Erin make such a mistake?
nMako didn’t know what his friends had actually seen but he knew that their perspective had been altered from reality which was why they were so bent on killing him.
nAfter understanding that there was no way of talking out of this one nor calming down his friends, Mako finally released his skill which he had been charging for the last couple of moments as all of this was taking place.
nElectrical Discharge has been activated
nA pulse of yellow electricity erupted from Mako’s body and blasted both Bill and Erin backward while also paralyzing them.
nRed Fire aura has been released
nMako quickly enveloped his whole body in red flames quickly evaporating the ice spikes from his back and resuming his regular rate of emergency healing.
nEmergency Healing’s effectiveness has been returned to normal
n“Open Inventory” Mako commanded the system and he quickly consumed the two last remaining high-level healing pills that he still had left directly from the system interface.
nThe pills quickly took effect as Mako’s bleeding stopped and he quickly began to recover his strength.
nEven though Mako had charged the electrical discharge skill with a good amount of lightning aura, the paralysis it induced was still a pretty basic one and it wasn’t long before both Bill and Erin regained control of their bodies, now enraged more than ever after having it confirmed in their minds that Mako was an imposter since he was now fighting back.
nStone Skin has been activated
nFortified Stance has been activated
nEnergy Sensing has been activated
nMotion Sense has been activated
nMako quickly activated all of his defensive and perceptive skills to grant him the greatest chance against two very formidable opponents which he didn’t want to hurt.
nBy now the effects of the electrical discharge had worn off and now Bill and Erin teamed up and rushed in together to attack Mako.
nHowever, Mako wasn’t done preparing as he also had an ace up his sleeve that could help him by leveling the odds a little bit.
nThe Poison Mutant Gene has been activated
nMako’s eyes began to glow a bright verdant green as he felt a huge wave of power enter his body.
nBill conjured a dense baseball bat made from concentrated earth and swung it at Mako’s head.
nStone Sword has been activated
nMako conjured his own earth weapon and clashed it with Bill’s only for it to break on impact as Bill’s weapon was far superior in durability, but it was able to divert Bill’s line of attack allowing Mako to dodge the bat.
nAs Mako swung underneath the bat, Erin lunged forward with ice spikes in her hand once again.
nMako’s hand crackled with electricity as he swiped his hand and four blades of yellow lightning erupted from his fingers.
nLightning Claw has been activated
nThe claw blasted Erin backward as she had no defense while being in mid-air but Bill had already swung his bat again, this time faster than before which Mako wasn’t able to anticipate in time, and so the bat made contact with Mako’s leg, shooting immense signals of pain to his body even through his layer of defense.
nHowever, Mako quickly found his footing again and began spamming fireballs at Bill to try and create space between them.
nHis strategy worked and Mako was able to widen the gap between him and Bill as he continued to dodge every single fireball.
nErin ran up from behind as she skated on ice to gain more speed and momentum to try and tackle Mako on the ground.
nMako quickly conjured another stone sword and used Cyclone Parry to block Erin before she could strike and counter her.
nThis time Mako went on the offensive as he launched fireballs, earth pillars, and lightning strikes at both Erin and Bill simultaneously to create as much space between them and him as possible.
nEven though it was quickly draining his massiveEnergy pool, Mako continued to spam multiple abilities so that Bill and Erin would continue to dodge.
nFireball has been activated
nFlame wheel has been activated
nFlame Bullet has been activated
nLightning Strike has been activated
nLightning Claw has been activated
nStone Sword has been activated
nPhantom Shift has been activated
nPhantom Dash has been activated
nMana Thrust has been activated
nMana Slash has been activated
nEven though Mako’s attacks looked random and wild, he was deliberately attacking in such a pattern that made it so that Erin and Bill would be directed farther away from the door as they continued to dodge Mako’s barrage of skills.
nMako knew that they wouldn’t dodge forever and would surely adapt to his spam and then begin their counter so before it could come to that point, Mako decided to end the fight and make his escape with one last skill.
nGround Rupture has been activated
nMako placed his hands on the ground and created a mini earthquake inside the room making Erin lose her footing while Bill still fared a little better given Earth was his specialty.
nMako wasted no time as he took this opportunity to run toward the door and escape, if he could find Leon and the others, then maybe he could calm Bill and Erin down and talk things through to clear up the misconception.
nHowever, as Mako approached the door and opened it in order to make his escape, A sudden sharp feeling erupted in Mako’s chest.
nIt was a sharp stinging feeling that seemed to grow every second. Time began to slow down for Mako as dozens of system notifications flooded the screen in front of his eyes.
nAs Mako slowly looked down to find the source of this unusual pain, he came to a shocking realization.
nMako had been shot in the heart!
