451 The Betrayal 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

The ten shadows moved extremely fast and soon arrived beside Michael and Kidd. The colorless stone shined brightly and the two, along with five figures.

“Kidd, what are you!?” Fein had a look of disbelief

Before he could finish his words, the light receded. Kidd, Michael, and the five shadow figures vanished, leaving the other figure, who immediately surrounded Fein in a circle.

The five had white masks with numbers on them. Eight-eight, eighty-seven, eighty-six, eighty-four, and eighty-five.

“Who the fuck are you guys!?” Fein’s eyes became chilly.

The five figures looked at Fein as if they were looking at the dead person. One of the figures with the number eight-four written on his smiley mask stepped forward.

“We are the Laughing Phantom. You don’t need to know anything else.” As he said this, a fiery orb of light appeared in his hand.

The other four completely released their S rank aura. The combined momentum of the five S ranks brought a strong pressure that destroyed the nearby trees and cracked the ground where they stood.

‘Laughing Phantom? What are they doing here? Why is Kidd with them!?’ Fein took out the sword in his hand.

.....

He knew that whatever they plan to do. Their target this time is him and Michael! They actually separated him from the colorless rock on Kidd’s hand. Fein couldn’t believe that one of his friends for a long time, one that he considered family, would betray them like this.

In the past year, Fein was already suspicious of Kidd. After all, Kidd suddenly disappeared and came back with an A-rank strength. He also acts weirdly, but that wasn’t enough evidence. Fein had ignored all of this out of his trust in Kidd and thought that it was related to Kidd’s family. He wouldn’t have thought that Kidd was actually a member of the Laughing Phantom!

Now, Fein understood the reason for Kidd’s sudden increase in strength and disappearances. Kidd had been a Laughing Phantom all this time. After all, before Fein had even joined the Ranger’s Eye, Kidd had already a case of disappearing out of thin air.

As Fein realized this, his heart was empty. He was already numb with his emotions. He thought that he would feel extremely sad or something along those lines... Gregory’s death had changed him completely inside. Now, he only felt disappointed and a little sad, but the sadness couldn’t even affect him anymore.

Fein looked at the incoming fiery orb of light. Then disappeared into his place, only to appear in front of the masked figure who launched it.

He hacked his sword towards the neck of the opponent, but another masked figure, numbered eighty-five, blocked his sword with a violet barrier.

Though the barrier didn’t even last under Fein’s sword... It was shattered easily, and the sword took out the arm of number eighty-five. He was obviously taken aback at the power of the sword and quickly backed out along with number eighty-four.

BOOM!

A massive explosion appeared as a fiery orb of light landed on the ground. It created a thirty-meter-deep hole filled with burning flames.

‘Is this the power of Laughing Phantom?’ Fein stared at the five figures and the massive pit on the ground. ‘It’s too weak. If it’s all they can do, then Laughing Phantom might not really be that troublesome.’

Of course, there’s also a possibility that he was wrong. Fein knew that the numbers written on the masks might be related to their ranking in their organization. The lower the number, the stronger the strength. It means, among the five masked figures, number eighty-four is the strongest, and number eighty-eight is the weakest. It means, in the Laughing Phantom, number one is the strongest who Fein thinks should be Niki. The number fifteen to one might be the real deal that he had to face in the future.

“Where is Michael? Is Kidd really one of you?” Fein asked one last time.

“Too many questions! I knew we underestimated you. I didn’t expect you would be fast enough to dodge my attack and actually destroy number eighty-five’s barrier that easily. You have some power. But we are five S ranks. You can’t do anything but die under our hands.” Number eighty-four said in a baritone voice.

“Since you don’t want to say anything, then just died... You targeted the wrong guy.” Fein took a deep breath, gathered his strength in his arms, and gripped the sheath of the sword tightly.

Just like that, a white light emerged out of nowhere that illuminated everything, the five froze in their place, they could see the light, but as if time had to stop, they couldn’t move their body and could only helplessly wait for the light to hit them.

‘How could this be?’ This number-eighty-four’s last thought before he died.

All of this happened just in an instant. The five S-rank masked figures, number eighty-eight to eighty-four of the Laughing Phantom, were divided into pieces. Like an artwork, their blood was like a tomato sauce spurting in the air.

Arms, heads, legs, and even d*cks fell to the deep bit and got burned by the flames. Fein sat on the ground with the hope that Michael would come back safely. Though he knew that it would be a fruitless wait. Since Kidd had five S-rank Laughing Phantom members with him. And Michael was just a newly ascended A-rank.

Fein clenched his fist tightly. ‘I swear, if something happened to Michael, I’ll fucking kill all of you!!’

His reversed scale had been touched this time. First, it was Gregory, and now it was Michael! All of it was related to the Laughing Phantom. He doesn’t care anymore, he just wants to annihilate them. Since they dared to touch his friends, they have to prepare for his wrath.

He stared at the white mark with a smiley face and the number eighty-four drawn on it with contemplation.

...

“Kidd... Y-you... Where are we? Why are you with these guys?” Michael had blood on the corner of his mouth.

“Are you blind?” Kidd said without emotion. “I came here to kill you and Fein.”

Michael’s whole body trembled, and he felt his heart tighten. “But why? We are a family! A team!”

“Friend? Family? Can’t you see? This is all a lie.” Kidd turned his back to Michael and looked at the five masked figures beside him. “Kill him.”
