318  317: Stunned

Shock

Surprise

Confusion

Solemnity

Apprehension

And a tinge of anticipation.

These were the emotions and reactions of Corey, Old Man Poison, and the rest as their gazes landed on the five tier 4s.

Rosa's shock and fear filled eyes shook, regaining a little bit of focus. She glanced at the five tier 4s, then she looked behind her. Her pupils shook and her heart trembled when reflected in her eyes was the image of a wall that was completely destroyed by a power so immense that the aura surrounding the wall still remained, sending shivers down the spine of Rosa.

Nobody did not need to ask, nor did she need to be told. She knew that the attack was definitely not aimed at the wall but at her head.

Corey had calmly moved her head away from the power or object that threatened to destroy in both body and soul.

Rosa knew, she knew that no defensive treasure she had could protect her from such an attack. She was just a few centimeters from the grim reaper's scythe, and this fact, shook her to the core.

Not only did this shake her, it also angered her.

She hated the fact that she was weak and an enemy almost took her life.

She hated the fact that somebody who was a lower tier than her had to save her.

She hated the fact that she was careless and had relaxed her senses.

Although she didn't know how Corey knew about the attack when even Old Man Poison and Selene, two tier 4s, did not sense the attack until it was unleased. Rosa did not care.

Only one thing was in her mind.

Her enemies had almost taken her life.

Her enemies had almost taken the life of a blood berserker through a sneak attack.

She had almost died like a wild animal used as a target in recreational hunting.

How disgraceful was that?

How shameful was that?

Her, a blood berserker would die in a place that was not the battlefield?

That would bring utter shame to her and her ancestors!

Crack!

An extremely soft crack resounded in the abandoned warehouse, one that everybody heard, but ignored and thought to be insignificant.

Except Corey that is.

Corey looked at Rosa who was grinding her teeth with her eyes repeatedly flashing with an ominous light.

Corey raised his brows in surprise when he felt the killing intent that was building up in Rosa, and after brief thought, he stopped holding her head and took a few steps away from her.

"You missed Lilith."

An indifferent voice echoed, breaking the silence that was caused by the appearance of the five tier 4s.

Corey looked at the tier 4 who had spoken, and he took in his appearance.

The individual was a male whose very presence commanded attention. He had a fairly large build and his amber eyes flickered like restless flames, a stark contrast to his blazing red hair that cascaded down his back in fiery waves.

He wore a black leather coat lined with crimson accents. Around his neck was a small, glowing ruby. The most attention grabbing feature though was not any of these. It was a shifting flame pattern that was on his forehead.

A pattern that all the other four tier 4s had.

"I wasn't meant to Zephyr. He pushed her head."

An enchanting voice that could fill men with a fiery temptation resounded in the abandoned warehouse.

Corey looked at the female who had spoken and he observed her.

She possessed the figure of a temptress, and her eyes which was a captivating sight, was set ablaze with colors akin to a blazing inferno. Her flowing hair resembled molten lava, framing her captivating gaze.

Wrapped in a dress resembling dancing flames, and adorning her wrists were golden bangles which shook as she gestured towards Corey with her left hand which was holding a black and red bow.

'That bow is dangerous.'

Corey thought as he observed the bow with slightly furrowed brows.

"Hmm. Who are you?"

Zephyr asked with a tinge of intrigue as he observed Corey.

He had not seen a unique individual like Corey in the list given to him by his superiors.

In fact, not only was Corey not in the list, two other people were not in the list.

'I was never told that there would be two tier 4s in the group. Did the three of them just join the group or did they just appear here?'

09:37

Zephyr thought as he gazed at Old Man Poison and Selene with a tinge of frustration.

'What a hassle.' Zephyr sighed.

Meanwhile, Corey did not answer Zephyr. He chose to observe the the remaining two tier 4s.

The third individual that caught Corey's attention was another male.

He stood as a portrait of enigmatic allure. His eyes, akin to smoldering coals, held depths that Corey found familiar. His black hair, touched with crimson, fell around his face in waves, vibrant and full of life.

His tall stature exuded a quiet confidence which most might not notice or ignore, but Corey noticed it and he was intrigued. Clad in attire that blended the modern with the martial, dark hues interwoven with threads, and by his waist was a sword with a red hilt and a brown wooden scabbard.

Corey's gaze lingered on the scabbard and the sword for a slightly longer period of time, and an intrigued light flashed in his eyes.

The fourth individual Corey looked at was also a male. He had a slightly skinny physique and his eyes which had a color akin to burning coals gleamed with disdain and indifference as he gazed at the lambs before him.

He wore a dark vest paired with crimson trousers, giving the illusion of a smoldering flame. Around his neck was a pendant shaped like a blazing sun.

'Weak.'

Corey thought with disinterest, then he looked at the last individual, a female.

Although possessing a body that was enchanting and sexy, her body shape and face could not be compared to that of Lilith, the female with the bow.

Her eyes held a mesmerizing glow akin to dancing flames, with their color shifting between shades of red and orange. Her hair was styled in fiery braids, adorned with small golden charms.

She wore a flowing robe with swirling patterns resembling fiery whirlwinds, accented with vibrant shades of red and orange. Her earrings were shaped like miniature flames.

"Seen enough?"

A deep voice filled with clear displeasure resounded, and Corey looked at Zephyr and nodded, stunning Zephyr and the remaining four.

Corey looked at Rosa who had suddenly become quiet. Her breathing was so faint that if not because of his Ears of Omniscience, he would have trouble hearing her breathe.

"You can take the one with a bow."

Corey gestured at Lilith and she blinked twice.

"I'll take that one."

Corey pointed at the male who wore a modern martial attire and he blinked twice.

"Master, take the strongest."

Corey gestured towards Zephyr and Old Man Poison blinked twice.

"Selene. Take that female."

Corey gestured towards the female with earrings, and Selene had a stunned expression.

"As for the rest of you. Show that arrogant fool his place, and when you're done. Help whoever needs your help the most."

Corey gestured towards the male with a skinny physique who had been looking at them with disdain.

Everybody became stunned.
