YM778.TV Chapter 104 103. Moving The Pawns (2).
"I\'ll be taking this, Louie." He said.
"Crazy basta*d! Test it in the sparring room!" Louie snarled at Henry while holding his shield to guard himself.
"Hahaha." Henry chuckled mischievously and turned to face Louie whose face was flushed red in ire.
"... Don\'t you get any requests? I thought you would be busy now that the system has changed." Louie asked after placing his shield back into his subspace.
"Yeah, I got a sh*t ton of requests, I\'m just too busy rejecting those which seem insignificant." Henry answered while keeping his eyes on the dagger.
Henry Hale, \'The Red Reaper\' and \'The Body\' of the mercenary group \'Uncharted,\' became so preoccupied with assassinating his targets that he had no time for his other half, so he, too, considered taking a break from his mercenary career, so that he could have all the time he wanted, and he made the decision on returning stronger than before, after speaking with the \'Crazed\' man of his team.
"That crazy basta*d said that now that the system has changed, we will get stronger by hunting monsters, and I\'ve already asked Core to make my vacation official, so we can focus on ourselves and grow stronger in the meantime." Henry said with a bright smile.
"Yeah. But drag that basta*d here first, then we\'ll go to sector one for a vacation." Louie smiled warmly and said.
Louie Robbins \'The Orange Knight\' and \'The Heart\' of the mercenary group.
"Yeah, he\'s been gone on his vacation for a....." Henry said and raised his brows at Louie.
"A month and a half." Louie answered.
"Right, month and a half.... Huh? It\'s only been a month?" Henry asked in disbelief.
"And a half. Yes, it\'s been thaaaaat long." Louie dragged \'that\' to emphasize how long he has been gone.
"Whoa, that\'s too short, I thought already half a year had passed. Damn, I miss that crazy basta*d!" Henry said and shook his head.
"Yeah, if he was here, time would have flown by without us noticing; now that he\'s gone, it feels like the days have grown longer." Louie shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Damn, that\'s what happens when you grow up togeth..." Henry was saying something but suddenly....
BANG
The room\'s door shot open and a petite woman appeared with a serious look on her face.
"\'His\' pawns are moving!" Core said.
"Really~" Henry smiled brightly while Louie frowned.
"..... But he is already a step ahead." Core said with slight nod and a savage grin.
Core Oliver, \'The Purple Dipper\' and \'The Brain\' of the mercenary group.
"Pfft, looks like we\'re going to use that crazy basta*d\'s tricks." Henry said and glanced at Louie who was seething in ire.
"Calm down, you guys. It\'s not time yet and Core, contact him first." Arngrim appeared from behind Core and said.
Arngrim \'The Black Psychopath\' and \'The Gut\' of the mercenary group.
"Ho! Looks like somebody is using his brain today." Core said with a grin.
"Shut up!" Arngrim grumbled and walked back.
"So? Shall we start moving too?" Core asked with her brows raised.
"Let\'s give him a call first, I think we\'ll be moving by ourselves for a while." Henry walked towards Core and said while caressing her cheeks with a smile on his face.
"Aye, I\'m here, so get out and make out." Louie grumbled.
"Ehhh? Come on, why can\'t we do it here?" Core stared at Louie with big puppy eyes and asked teasingly with a slight grin on her face which she couldn\'t hide.
"Get out!" Louie grumbled and kicked them out of his workplace.
BANG
"...."
"...."
"Pfft, hahaha." Henry laughed out loud and looked at Core who was laughing with him.
"Shall we take on Louie\'s advice?" Henry picked her up before kissing her.
"Mm~ hah, of course, we should! That\'s \'The Heart\' of our group, haha." Core chuckled before kissing him back.

"Well sh*t." The man who was coiled by Vassago\'s lightning chains mumbled.
ZKRAT-ZRAT (5x)
BOOM
"Hahaha." Vassago chuckled while staring the black and white flash in anticipation.
WHOOOSH
"Hm?" Vassago stared at a white-haired figure blast out of the flash with his back facing Vassago. Half of his t-shirt had been ripped to shreds, but only the right side of his trousers had been damaged, and it had only been ripped up to his right knee.
"Che, well at least I did some damag...." Vassago was mumbling something but stopped when he noticed the figure turn around to face him, mid-air while glaring. Vassago shuddered when he noticed the figure\'s palm, just, in front of his face.
WHOOOSH
THUMP
His palm clenched Vassago\'s face, Vassago\'s eyes moved to his left where the man\'s head was, and he flinched when he saw the man glaring at him with blood on the right corner of his mouth.
BAM
BOOM
"Ack!!" Vassago was slammed to the ground, strong enough to lift his legs in the air and create a mini crater beneath his head.
"Cough...." a groan was heard next to Vassago.
"Arrgg..." Vassago groaned and turned his head to the left, where he saw the man lying down on the ground glaring at him, a small puddle of blood in front of his mouth.
"Ack.....urg..." The man groaned and sat back up, his legs forming a \'4\' shape as he sat down, resting his left arm on his left knee and supporting himself with his right arm, slightly behind him.
"Haa...." he sighed while glaring at Vassago.
"Hahaha, Got you!" Vassago laughed at the man in front of him without moving even an inch from the place he was slammed to.
"Knight of the black flame!" Vassago roared with his left hand on the ground which was lit in black flame.
"Damn." The man mumbled.
CRA-CRACK (4x)
A white skeletal hand protruded from the ground, its arm was set ablaze with black flame, and a full skeleton slowly climbed up as if climbing a ladder. when the white skeleton completely protruded out through the ground with its whole body was set ablaze with black flame, the black flame condensed into a sturdy armour that allowed the skeleton Knight to move as it pleased.
Finally, a helmet appeared on the skull, with a white plus mark on its chest plate and everything else covered in black; the plus mark had white veins that connected every limb to it.
"CRK...CRAK... CLAK."
