The One that Suddenly Strikes in the Darkness


Though the day is still long not until the afternoon, but the sky looks dark because it contains a lot of water. The comulonimbus cloud was too black.


From the heavy rain that I do not like is when the lightning sounds quite loud in a few seconds.


In addition to making myself shocked when the sound of lightning suddenly appeared to pop my ears I think it will give a bad feeling afterwards.


After lunch, I took a flashlight and rushed to the bathroom. Until there it turns out the place is still clean.


Coming out of the restroom I felt like someone was watching as the light from the lightning illuminated the surroundings of my place for a moment, and don't tell me there's anyone here other than me and Alex.


For example, my assumption is right, maybe the sound of his footsteps submerged by the sound of heavy rain, hopefully the feeling was just a hunch and not really real.


Walking towards the room where Alex and I were together earlier I was shocked to see the footsteps of someone as I looked up at the floor.


She was wearing shoes from her footprint only I concluded she was an adult, I think I should be careful and rush over to where Alex is.


Jdarr...


The loud sound of lightning sounded to disturb the ears, but I was not too surprised because it was spoiler by the lightning for a moment.


"Eh, hmph..."


"Sttss.I'm Alex entering someone else's body. My previous self has been killed!"


I crouched down with him and sure enough someone different but I understood for sure that this person before me was Alex.


"There's someone else in this mall, I think we should be careful because I was stabbed suddenly from behind. But luckily from afar I saw someone so I entered it and pretended to be him!" clearly Alex whispered in the form of a middle-aged man in a hat.


The drap!


Brak!


The noise heard not far from my place meant that the person was looking for me forcibly if I were to hide among the product shelves.


"If he knows me too, it means that Alex and I were observed by him before. Oh, my God, why didn't I realize before..."


Remembering the incident Alex experienced when explaining it to me meant that he entered someone on condition of seeing his identity.


"I think you can just find that person and then get in with your abilities, I think that's the best strategy!" I said to Alex, whispering my mouth closer to his ear. Whether he heard it or not because the sound of rain and lightning was very disturbing.


And if he doesn't hear it I'll say it through his memory using my abilities.


It's just a matter of Alex's ability to have a pause in previous use so can't just use it immediately, according to Alex's own narrative.


Slashwas...


Brakk!!


The times I was completely shocked and my heart was made to beat fast looking at the top of the shelf fitting at the height of my head as the squat was cut off by something and crashed on his right side.


Suddenly I immediately ran away from where I was crouching along with Alex to see the person who did this. I took the initiative to fight it.


Drask...


Drask...


The attack now attacks Alex continuously, but fortunately he can withstand using the protective abilities of the people he enters. It seemed like the person Alex had entered was caught by his partner so he did not hesitate to attack him.


I hid and took out a few knife-sized taper diamonds in a considerable amount and I pointed them at the man as the lightning light gave me a chance to see them.


Unfortunately, the attack just now was probably on edge by him when I heard the sound of the diamond being destroyed.


Slashwas...


Brakk!!


Whether what attack he directed at me I observed darting very quickly and dangerously could split perfectly on each product shelf until it penetrated backwards.


Jdarr...


Slashwas...


Brakk!!


"Sort of wind, um. no, no but a sharp and dangerous wave!"


In my position now soon I will run out of hiding places over time and Alex is still protecting himself because that person is targeting him continuously without pause.


While one more hand he pointed at me while raising a deadly wave. The receipt I had to choose to strike directly with the diamond ability or wait for the gap and understand the ability first.


Weakness of this choice, sooner or later Alex will be killed and I'm not sure the ability of diamonds is able to defeat him. Plus this place is very dark only lightning light that I can use as makeshift lighting.


Cracks!


"From afar I saw Alex sacrificing his right hand to escape the man's attack, he I saw moving to his left side opposite me. Maybe he was trying to distract that guy.


"Then I won't waste Alex's sacrifice!"


A sout...


A sout...


And I fought the attack with that person continuously until there was a gap for me to enter his memory. As little by little the light of lightning showed his face clearly.


Yet I was completely unable to enter his memories as he had previously covered his eyes with a cloth.


"Would closing my eyes prevent me from entering his memory, if true.he is very smart to know the weakness of the opponent?"


Drask...


Crackdown!


In the end I could not use the ability to enter my memories on him, even he was able to destroy the diamond shield I had created as thick as possible.


Cracks!


Cracks!


Near-kill almost hit by a deadly wave one step ahead of me Alex suddenly pushed me aside until I was saved, while he was in a terrible state split on his body.


Which makes me regret for failing to protect the people I know, and I owe Alex a debt of gratitude.


I rushed away from where I fell as much as I could not be killed by him, because I had unattainable hopes.


He seemed to be following me while blasting deadly waves continuously.


"I'm sorry Alex. I got you killed, I hope you calm down there..."


"I'm sorry, but I'm alive and now entering you. It's just that you're the first one to realize when I get in!"


To my surprise, it turned out that Alex entered me when the middle-aged man he entered was killed by his vile partner.


Reminds me of one of the King's protectors with parasitic abilities entering someone, but there are fundamental differences in Alex's abilities.


"My advice is we just run away when we find a gap in the hollow roof of the mall, then go from it as far as possible. Don't you think you can fly, Anita?!" said Alex.


"Yep, I'll try to find a hollow roof first."


"Don't tell me you changed after I saved you?"


"No, I'm just following your advice on the right conditions at the moment."


Shortly running while avoiding the attack of deadly waves I finally saw a hole in the roof of the mall. Actually, this mall is big.
