Nero, The Legendary Hunter

While thinking what to do, he continued defending himself against Nero\'s attacks, which each time seemed to be getting more dangerous. Nero seemed to be able to guess his movements. It was like she was a newborn baby learning to walk; the more she struggled the more she learned and the more she found fault with him.

\'If this continues I will die to a simple little girl.\' The gangster leader\'s heart was racing. \'After all, where did this girl come from? There\'s no way she could be so powerful and still remain unknown!?!\'

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

While he was lost in his thoughts, the gangster leader didn\'t realize Nero took advantage of this and attacked, hitting his thigh, slicing through and making him nearly fall to his knees on the ground.

"I cannot die here! You worthless people, help me!!" The gangster leader yelled towards his henchmen. He was terrified. He didn\'t want to die. Just thinking about the probability of him dying caused his face to contort in fear, scared beyond belief; the fear he had never felt before was something not even the Chief of the Red Blade had made him feel.

"Want to run away?" Nero scoffed, "But it\'s not that easy, or rather I won\'t let you get away after what you\'ve seen and done."

The leader\'s expression was distorted. He was holding himself back from falling to the ground in pain as Nero pointed her sword at him.

Grinding his teeth, he looked at her fearfully, but tried to hold his ground. "What can I give you to spare me? Money, gold, I\'ve got it saved. I can give it all to you as long as you let me out alive!"

When he realized that the Samurai had already defeated 5 of his henchmen and Choko had defeated 4, while the animals that were summoned had already defeated about 7, and now only 5 of his henchmen could fight, with some injuries, he realized that without them letting him get away, it was almost impossible for him to get out alive.

"I don\'t need your money or your dirty gold and even if I did, do you not believe I wouldn\'t get it after I killed you?" Nero laughed coldly.

"Little girl, you\'re going too far! You\'re forcing me to do this; I didn\'t mean to, understand? You\'re to blame!" His scared expression went entirely down the drain. Now he had a totally crazy, distorted expression. It was like he had totally lost his sanity as he cut his wrist and the blood started to flow on the ground. It started to create a circle, then something like a pentagram very similar to the diagram. It then started to glow more and more as a door appeared, and from inside the door a hand came out, a very big, giant hand, so big that one finger alone was the size of a person\'s body.

"What is this thing!?" Choko trembled in fear. She looked at that gigantic hand and could only conclude it was no good.

But before whatever was happening was completed, Nero created an arc of light and drew an arrow. Then she pulled it so far that when she released the arrow it was shot at an amazing speed as it spiraled and the arrow arched towards and slammed directly into the forehead of the gang leader, piercing through him and hitting the wall, creating an opening and a crack in the ground.

The gang members took this time to get away. They didn\'t care about their former leader nor did they care about what he was doing. In reality, it seemed like they knew what it was because they were surprisingly disgusted. Their faces were distorted and their expressions of fear were so terrifying it was as if they were seeing a ghost in person.

Even when they saw that whatever was going to happen was stopped, the gang members didn\'t stop running. After all, they didn\'t want to be killed by the girls or by one of those summons that one of the girls had brought out.

Nero closed the system window that appeared on her retina. She confirmed that the gang leader had died and saw the portal close and the gigantic hand recoil.

"Luna, Big Blue, come back." Nero had already canceled their summons, making them come back. She didn\'t know if things would be more dangerous, but she looked around the area, and going over to the Samurai girl, Jingu she motioned for her to follow her and started running away because she could see in the system map a group of people coming. But before leaving, she gathered up the corpses. Choko was already used to this sight, and Jingu thought she was doing it to hide the evidence.

20 minutes approximately later, they had managed to get quite a distance and were now back very close to the center of the city. The offending girl, Jingu, was a little breathless, but she reined in her breathing and started breathing calmly again and she turned to Nero and showed her a soft smile. "Thank you so much. You really helped me this time. I don\'t even know how I\'m going to be able to repay you for what you did for me. Thank you very much, gozaru!" She bowed towards them while being deeply grateful.

"If you\'re really looking to return the favor, can you join our group and help us explore the great dungeons around here?" Nero already liked her and since she wanted to form a group to explore the dungeon, Nero felt it would be good if she could recruit someone strong like her.
