*BOOM*

Instantly, a shockwave shot out, pushing Lloyd a few meters back while throwing the lightning-shrouded figure several dozen meters back.

Losing his upper body and waist, Lloyd's iron-clad grip caught the wrist of someone carrying a blade with the wind element.

Looking into the eyes of the girl who attacked him, Lloyd didn't show an ounce of sympathy as he immediately crushed her wrist, causing her to let out an ear-piercing screech that made most of the boys look at Lloyd with killing intent.

"Oh, come on. Don't look at me like that." Lloyd sneered as he held the girl up by her broken wrist before pummeling her as if she was nothing but a punching bag.

"I only hit her a few times." Lloyd smiled.

"Bastard!" One of the boys seemed to finally snap as they shot towards Lloyd with all the speed and power he could muster, yet instead of waiting for him to get close like last time, Lloyd's smile slightly widened as he threw the girl in his hand towards the boy.

"Wha-" The boy could not even mutter a word as he immediately felt danger come from all sides.

Dropping his weapon, the boy caught the girl, yet he would find that doing so would be the biggest mistake he could make.

"Behind you!" One of the girls shouted, but it was far too late.

It only took a second for Lloyd to cover his arm in shadows, yet a second was all he needed.

Using [Presence Concealment], Lloyd had no problems sneaking behind the boy.

*BOOOOOM*

Lloyd's fist slammed into the boy's face just as he turned around.

Before he knew it, he and the girl saw a yellow barrier appear before them just before disappearing, yet the damage was already done.

"2 down, 8 to go," Lloyd muttered, his killing intent only becoming more powerful by the minute.

"Everyone! Attack together!" A girl with white hair roared before disappearing in a bright flash of light.

'A light assassin. Interesting.' Lloyd thought to himself before using [Presence Concealment] to hide himself in plain sight.

Of course, he wasn't using it to the extent that he would hide from cameras, but it was enough to make it, so humans have a hard time seeing him.

"Where did he g-" The boy was cut off mid-sentence as he felt something grip onto the back of his neck.

One might say that this was simply a challenge where no one's life was at stake, yet everyone who met Lloyd would tell you differently.

The boy felt Lloyd's killing intent disappear, yet somehow, he felt like it was coming through the hand itself.

The hand gripped the back of his neck tightly.

Making it hard to breathe.

Making his heart beat quickly and his eyes shake in fear.

A hand capable of breaking the strongest of wills.

Yet, when the boy looked into Lloyd's eyes, he felt like he had let heaven pass him. Because the fear he felt at that moment was something that bubbled deep within his primal core.

At that moment, he felt the primal fear of facing a void walker.

And then it became red, just before turning black.

...

"Oh?" Lloyd muttered, his eyes widening slightly as blood splattered onto his face.

"Well, this isn't right." He narrowed his eyes slightly before shrugging and throwing the boy's body away.

"You killed him..." The girl shrouded in light whispered, yet one could feel the rage in her voice as her killing intent skyrocketed.

"Hey! I did no such thing. We simply found out that according to the shields, a stab to the left side of the small intestine isn't lethal enough to send them away. Look how much we learn when we work together!" Lloyd clapped, yet he was forced to move to the side as a blade created purely from light sliced down in a fabulous arch followed by a streak of stars.

"Fuck-"

*BZZZ*

"YOU!" The boy covered in lightning suddenly showed up at Lloyd's right.

However-

*Thud*

"I'm sorry, but I don't really have time for you." Lloyd sighed, his killing intent becoming increasingly oppressive by the minute.

"I'll just have to kill you now." Lloyd smirked, and in the next instant, the boy was forced to take multiple steps back as Lloyd's killing intent disappeared and was replaced by a presence that seemed to suck the very life out of the area.

"W-What are you?" The boy asked, his voice trembling.

"Me? Nothin' much, to be honest." Lloyd chuckled.

"I am Lloyd." He introduced himself before taking a step forward.

It only took a moment for Lloyd's demeanor to change again, and this time his smile disappeared and was quickly replaced by a powerful stare capable of crumbling mountains with its intensity alone.

"And you... You are nothing."

Without bothering to look back, Lloyd shot his elbow back and slammed it into the stomach of one of the boys.

As the boy collapsed, Lloyd grabbed his head with one hand before turning him towards an arrow created from pure light energy, and without a moment's notice, the boy disappeared in a yellow flash of light.

'This is a lot of fun!' Lloyd thought to himself before covering his foot with his shadow and kicking the lightning-covered boy in the stomach, causing him to puke out anything he had for breakfast.

"Bastard!" The boy with red hair appeared in front of Lloyd with a blade made from flames in his hand.

"I'm sorry, but I really don't have time for you." Lloyd sighed as he used [Presence Concealment] to disappear from his sight.

"Shit!" The boy cursed as he tried to look for him, yet it was as if Lloyd had vanished into thin air.

"H-How is this possible?" The boy asked, his voice trembling.

"Your friend up there isn't the only one who can appear and disappear whenever they want." Lloyd's voice suddenly rang out from behind him, and before he could even turn around, Lloyd had already covered his mouth with his hand.

"Don't bother struggling." Lloyd smirked as he used his other hand to snap the boy's neck, sending him back to the ship in the process.

"Who would like to volunteer to be my next punching bag then eh?" Lloyd asked with a bright smile as he looked at the girl shrouded in light.

"You won't be able to hide forever." The girl threatened, yet Lloyd only chuckled in response.

"And you won't be able to run forever." He countered before disappearing in a blur.

"You think you can just hide from me? I can just use my light to find you!" She roared, yet it was in that instant that she felt every hair on her body suddenly stand up.

"That is my intention." Lloyd muttered as several light missiles shot towards Lloyd at extreme speeds, but there was a twist.

*Zoop* *Zoop*

Disappearing in a flash of light, the two individuals that were in Lloyd's hands let out bloodcurdling shrieks as light passed through the left side of their small intestine while completely missing Lloyd.

Dropping them to the ground, Lloyd looked up at the girl with an innocent smile.

And all it took was a blink for him to disappear.

*Spulech*

-And appeared right behind her with his arm around her neck in a tight chokehold.

For several seconds, she struggled as she continuously used light energy to attack Lloyd, yet none of it seemed to work.

She hadn't even realized it, but she was the last one left.

The lucky ones were sent back, yet the unlucky ones were left bleeding in the lake or ground, waiting for their condition to reach lethal so they could be teleported to the ship and sent back home.

The girl's heartbeat wavered, and slowly but surely, her vision faded, and she was left in nothing but a deep abyss.

"An ironic twist if you think about it." Lloyd whispered into her ears as she lost consciousness.

"A woman of light, despite her struggle, is still consumed by the infinite abyss." Lloyd chortled before letting her go and allowing her to drop into the waters below.
