"I'm sorry I couldn't stop that from happening." He whispered, wrapping her with his leather jacket.
She bit down on her bottom lip, unable to face him.
Nix looked around at the structure, it almost looked like the same metal that was used to create their door back in the academy.
[Hearing augmentation activated]
'Are you thinking what I'm thinking?' He spoke to Mune, his focus still on the wall, trying to pinpoint if they were being watched like how his mother and her colleague had done.
He had heard some whispers, this wasn't coming from any of them. This had to be out. Just like the sick show he had inadvertently put out while he was in Zoar.
'They just don't give up.' He internally facepalmed at the sick game he was placed in again.
It all started to make sense why he was tested in such a way then.
They had merely arrived, yet they were put in a shit hole to test them?
He turned his attention to the direction of the noise to the right. A faint flicker of movement from the right alerted him to the fact that whoever was watching them was definitely from that area.
[Master, do you think it's possible to break through this? It's a fortified wall]
Looking over at where Lumina stood, she still had not turned in their direction, the only good thing he could think of was the fact that where she had faced no prying eyes were watching in that direction.
The thought of the possibility of them watching in some way while she had almost been rendered naked to the eyes of everyone, shook his very being.
Clenching his fist, he took a deep breath, his eyes glowed in rage.
[Gift: Fire fist in effect]
'I'd also like to know to what extent that wall can take.'
Lank narrowed his eyes at what Nix was planning on doing, it didn't seem like he was in a good mood either.
'Shit's about to get real.' Lank took a step back, dragging Arion away by the hand from the floor.
"If I were you three, I would leave that part, except you would like to be a partaker of the destruction that's to follow." He hissed to the others.
Lumina looked over her shoulder at the sound of hearing Lank's remark.
Curious to know what Nix was planning on doing when he walked up to the opposite side of the wall.
Bam!
"Is this how you welcome recruits to the organization?!" He raged, pulling out his fist from the wall.
Lumina's eyes bulged upon seeing the imprint of his knuckles on the wall.
Bam!
"This is by far the best welcome party I've had in years!" Nix snickered, shaking his head and continuing with rapid punches.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
"He's going to destroy the Metabox!"
Nix paused, raising his brow at the comment that he had managed to hear from outside the box.
His lips curved into a devilish smirk. If they were so concerned that he would destroy the confinement, it was best to give them a good show.
Investing 50% of his energy level into his gift efficiency, the flames on his hand increased.
Bringing his hand back, he prepared for a devastating blow.
Click!
A door opened from behind him, temporarily stopping him from carrying on with his action.
"Nix! You need to stop!"
Nix's grin only turned more sinister when he looked at who was trying to stop him from going through with his action.
'Sesa.' Nix acknowledged in his thoughts.
He had wondered where she had been for some while. Now he understood that her station was never the academy but rather the dreaded organization.
He looked at his hand which still had the flames burning wildly.
"Well, I would have," He laughed. "But the issue is, this can't go to waste while I'm already invested in carrying through with it."
Without giving her a chance to intervene, he continued from where he left off.
Boom!
The whole area trembled to the force that was used, dust rising in its wake as the metal in front of him burst open.
'I guess it's still as weak as the one back in the academy.' Nix thought with a sigh, shaking his head.
[Awesome, master! Show them who's boss!] Mune cheered.
Looking behind him, he threw a wink at the shocked Sesa. Her mouth fell open at his wink.
Lumina glared daggers at Sesa from behind, she had watched what had transpired between the two and felt slightly offended.
Although they had defined what they were, she still couldn't help but feel jealous that this strange lady had captivated his attention.
Judging from the way she had easily opened the door from outside, she must be one of the members of the organization.
Nix turned his attention immediately to the groan he picked up a few feet in front of him–where he had blown up to vent his anger.
[Hearing augmentation deactivated]
He already had enough of the augmentation for the day to be haunted by anymore.
Stepping out, he was mesmerized by the intricate design of the area. The flooring was made up of fully automated, white molded strips.
The room was equipped with four motion-detecting light switches, which flickered on and off as Nix tried to concentrate on one at a time.
'What the hell is all of this?!' His mouth hung open at the advanced interior technology he was currently witnessing.
This was opposed to the dwindling civilization of the city. Even the academy couldn't compare to this most scarcely.
The ceiling was an unimaginable, intricate, marble-like pattern, which repeated itself at nearly every centimeter.
Several video cameras mounted on the corners of the metal walls, which were all searching for signs of movement, stopped and zoomed in on Nix and the scientists trapped under the rubble.
'Oh f*ck me!' Nix cursed at the bad luck he had developed upon noticing a shadow cast over him. Looking up, he noticed a large rock floating in the air with a black aura outlining its edges, right above his head.
