Chapter 227 Beginning of bloodbath

Few minutes ago

As soon as the waitress entered the room, Rio smiled and straightened his back. He could feel the mana gathering outside and the sudden surge of people entering the restaurant or the ones who walked out of their rooms or stood up from the main hall - like they all got a signal to act.

Their synchronization was so on point that it even scared the ones around them.

"Golems" Rio muttered under his breath "Neat trick."

Rio scanned everything around him through his mana sense, which was boosted by Hecate's blessing of magic sense. His eyes stopped at the room where Leon was sitting with Seraphina. Rio smiled as he sensed the high amount of fire element inside there.

'Protagonist, he really smells trouble by a mile huh. And even those idiots, if they came for me shouldn't you attack me first. What a waste of time.'

[Protagonist's are always the one, who sees something wrong and gets a clue of any event or attack first - it's their right as the chosen son of heavens and being the favorites of author.]

'You know, I just said that as a rhetoric and wasn't really asking for your opinion, right.'

Rio stopped using his blessings and the notifications he got from Hela. He looked at the bloating waitress who was ready to blast herself and the moment she did, he waved his hand, splattering all the blood mist away from him.

The blood mist was another form of attack used by the low level minions of Warzy. These people were basically brainwashed and turned into puppets and their only role in the organization was to be a suicide bomber. The bodies of these guys is filled with a kind of poison which once inhaled blocks the aura movement.

The poison's name was called Blood Vapor Veil, it was simple, effective and hard to detect. Once injected directly through smell or taste, this poison directly mixes into the blood, making it harder for the user to find and suppress. That's all this poison does basically, but if someone were to use aura after using this poison, then this poison which is mixed in blood creates a veil over your veins, making it hard for you to channel your aura and making their senses slower.

Even this effect though seems overpowered but could easily be stopped if one has some blessing of poison resistance, or even has high control over their mana and use these to eject the poison directly.

But Warzy has Mystic Hush potion which can stop anyone from using mana - thus the addition of both these things makes them even more deadly.

After all, what can someone do without mana and aura. Even if someone's a high ranker, if they lose these two, then what's left is just their enhanced body and physical strength left. If not then they're just like normal nobodies. Making them easy prey for Warzy to hunt and kill.

Just at that moment of blast, Rio also used the control over darkness element to destroy all the sources of light inside their cabin room. Though the darkness of night had little effects for everyone in the room at normal times, and they would see through it easily, but with their senses dull and mana suppressed, even this was enough.

The girls can still rely on their heightened physical senses to fight with people of Warzy for some time. As for those who were a little troublesome to deal with for the girls, Rio planned to deal with them himself first.

[You just want to confuse and busy them in their fight, so they don't see you stealing stuff..]

'Shut up.' Rio said, standing up from his seat, as he controlled the threads he spread all over the room.

He stopped the system from speaking, but it was the truth after all. The golems used by Warzy were the best automated bots money could buy. And now that his old friend Virgil sent them as a gift to him, how could he not take it.

Defeating these golems generally wasn't hard, as they were low in grade and their strength and skills were fixed, and easy to predict, but what made them truly scary was the unlimited stamina they had. These guys could hold their own against a normal similar ranked awakener and might give a tough fight, but to all these heroines and important characters they weren't anything special.

But now that the girls couldn't use any mana Or aura, then dealing with all the golems, while fighting against the few living humans who sneak attacked on every chance and turn - was going to be very hard. That's why for their good too, Rio planned to solve all the golems for these girls first. As for other assassins, these heroines and characters can deal with them themselves.

'A fight or two like this - was probably good for their experience, and would teach them a lot of things.' Rio thought as he moved fine threads all over the room in a swift pattern.

Soon enough many footsteps started sounding in the room and the sound of fighting started. The first to jump forward was Esme, but expecting it already, he sent a mental message to her. "Handle the one's outside our cabin, who're in B rank. Let everyone fight for themselves and polish their skills."

Rio had already sent a message to her asking her to keep silent about it. After all, Esme was a part of shadows, and was literally poisoned multiple times in name of training and building her senses. Every shadow and someone who worked as a part of Silent Reapers, had to go through all kinds of hard trainings to make them perfect bodyguards and assassins. After all, Blake family can't raise lukewarm people to protect their important members.

Esme stopped and looked at Rio, through the darkness she could see him fighting with someone who showed no sign of life. As a vampire her senses were sharper than everyone else, and she was extra sensitive about the blood and heartbeats. She could sense nothing from those golems.

She wanted to ask him or go to help him, but she remembered what he said to her a few moments ago, when she asked something about why he still wanted to eat a deadly poison and wait for enemy's attack.

"You know questioning and doubting me once or twice over my decisions is good. But you're making it a habit now. Just do what I said."

It was a clear order and she understood it too. So she could just suppress her questions in her heart and do what he said. She was still ready to contact the elite members of Alphas stationed at Angel, but she decided to wait and do that if things started going out of hand. She changed her direction and moved towards the wall which was broken in another blast and some people were entering from there.

Rio watched as Esme intercepted them before they could come inside and attack everyone else. Once Esme was out Rio finally breathed a sigh of relief and then started his work.

'Let's get looting.' He thought, while trapping the golem in front of him into threads. Once the golem's movements were restricted, Rio took out a short ceremonial dagger with a blood red hilt and plugged it deep into the golem's forehead.

The mechanical golem whirred for a few seconds and then fell limp on the threads he was binded with. Rio waved his hand and put that into his system space.

'One down, more to go.' Rio said and moved towards the other golem whom he could notice in the room.

Through his mastery over darkness, he could see everything as clear as day even though there was no light around him. Rio kept moving and collecting all these golems into his system inventory.

These golems also had similar creation methods and the way of dealing with them was simple too. Just find and destroy the magic core which is used as a power source to function these mechanical robots.

Finding the core wasn't hard, as sensing condensed mana in their bodies was quite easy once these golems stood still. Since Rio could still use his mana himself, and he could use threads to bind these golems and trap them- he could do it even more perfectly and knock them out easily.

One by one the golems which entered the room to confuse everyone and kill them, started to fall down and Rio sweeped them all into his system space.

He could let these golems out once he destroyed the runes placed on their bodies by Warzy, and then he'd just need to fix them up again a bit and they'd all be his minions.

Though he wasn't much interested in some low level bots or golems, but the material used to make these golems was a little rare and expensive, so why waste them if they're a free gift from the enemy camp.

Rio also helped Ayla to stay away from everything and fixed her in a corner. After all, there was no need to put his money machine in danger for a little fighting experience.

Soon enough Rio had removed all the golems he could find inside the room, and threw them like trash in his system inventory.

'Now that that's done, let's start with the bloodbath.'

'Warzy, you owe me a little too much to be left alone. Since you made a move again, then just stay and be a stepping stone for me this time.'
