YM778.TV Chapter 290 Irene...
"Good. Now let\'s try that again," I spoke as I moved closer to her.
Our body has the ability to heal itself at a rapid rate. But because the energy cost would be a little too much for the body to handle, and the process would be a little too risky, it doesn\'t follow that path. But that doesn\'t mean it is impossible to do so.
[Time Rejection!]
Using time rejection, I helped Irene to gain back her lost strength in a matter of seconds. She stood back up, a little low on energy, before I passed her down a bit of the energy bar which we both had at the gas station. She downed it in a matter of moments.
[Time Rejection!]
Her body forcefully absorbed it pretty much, restoring her energy as well. This process took a bit less time than the previous one, and Irene was kind of smiling like an idiot here. She observed those vampires coming at her and using her newfound strength…
-Slash!
[Time Rejection!]
She made another perfect slash before she fell on her knees… again.
I repeated the same process over and over again, while also checking her status through the [Inspect] skill to make sure nothing goes wrong with her body. Though surprisingly, the effects were actually positive as she was gaining more and more strength as she performed those attacks.
\'Perhaps it\'s the perfect stance, and breaking and re-breaking of her body that is having a combined effect on her? She really is getting monstrous by the minute,\' I thought as I looked at her body shape, getting more defined as time passes.
If previously she looked good, now she is pretty athletic. The slim fit body, that had more muscles than fat but still enough fat to maintain her feminine charm… it was coming out rather nicely.
By the time we had killed most of the incoming vampires, it became rather bloody around the forest. And the one who fought the most here, Irene, was one with the most energy in the end. You can see that bright never ending smile on her face coupled with her greenish hair, that made her look rather radiant and beautiful.
"Was that the last of them?" Irene asked in a rather sad voice, seemingly unhappy that her training, which she started enjoying, had come to an abrupt end. Though I doubt that\'s the case here…
"I guess. We will find more of them inside the facility," I spoke with a thoughtful look as I observed the opened up path in front of us. Not too far from here, a half domed gate similar to that of a bunker was present. The vampires were previously coming from the same place.
"Let\'s go then. What are we waiting for?\'\'
Irene was rather excited to hear my words as she took the lead towards the same bunker gate, with her steps hastened a little. Chuckling at her behavior, I spoke,"sure. Sure. Just don\'t stray too far away from me," before I too started matching her pace.
Took a few minutes, but we managed to reach the gate which was half broken, probably because of my previous attack, and looking at the miniature cracks, it seems like the bunker was rather strong since the attack couldn\'t penetrate deeper into it.
"You really didn\'t hold back, did you?"
Irene said, surprised as she observed the bunker, and I turned to her with an awkward look. I mean, I did hold back a lot. A little too much, in fact.
"Let\'s go. Luckily, the lights are still on," Irene added, before she moved in the bunker with me right behind her. I kept [Foresight] on, from the start as I kept observing the bunker. Though nothing really happened for the initial few minutes while we were traveling through the bunker hallway. Only until we reached quite far, we came across a wide area that seemed bigger than a football stadium.
"That\'s a huge number," Irene spoke as she looked at the number of vampires in that wide area. They were each guarding some sort of machines and had guns in their hands, each pointed towards us, ready to \'skedouche\' us.
"FIRE!!!" From the speakers installed in the area, a loud voice reverberated as those guys started shooting at us with those semi-automatic rifles in their hands. Irene, who was looking at me for permission, smiled brightly as I nodded at her.
Not wasting any time, she jumped off the roof as she moved towards those vampires with guns. All she had was a wooden stick in her hand, which she was using in a more lethal way than any sword she ever had.
As for me
[Time Rejection!]
[Time Rejection!]
[Time Rejection!]

I kept on using my skill, making sure none of the bullets hit her. Not only that, every time she took a stance, I helped her perfect it with the same skill. My eyes then looked at her carefully as I rested against the railing, while looking at the people getting killed one by one by Irene.
If earlier they had guts, now I saw them looking at Irene as if they were observing a grim reaper coming for their lives. Their bodies were shivering as signs of panic became more and more apparent with time. I could literally see some of them cowering and beginning to run away.
[Time Rejection!]
Sadly, they tripped on their feet and broke their ankles… each and everyone of them who was trying to run away. My eyes looked at the machines which held the prisoners and kids, wondering how I should go about saving them. And what should I do next with them?
Meanwhile, Irene finally finished with everything and was just summing up-
-BOOOM!!!!!
"Eh? There were more of them?\'\' I couldn\'t help but exclaim as I looked at the giant truck sized bat madding through the left wall, as it tried to attack Irene with all his strength.
[Time Rejection!]
Alas, he missed his first attack and Irene escaped from there. Her eyes widened as she looked at that bat. Though, it didn\'t even take a second before that widened shocked eyes changed with that of excitement, looking at the bat as nothing but just another training prey.
-BOOM!!
Irene jumped directly at the bat, who was still gaining momentum in this space. Reaching the bat\'s head, Irene tried slashing it in a swoop, but the bat wasn\'t just large, but quite agile for its size, as it flew around the area before dashing towards… me?
A smile formed on my face as I observed it coming closer to me at a rapid speed.
"I would love to play with you but… you sure you have time to ignore her?" I pointed to the left, where Irene had already jumped towards the bat and…
-Slash!
Cut both of its wings, striking it down to the floor in its mid flight. Irene slashed from one side to the other, before reaching the opposite wall where she used her strength to stop against. Looking at her feats right now, I guess all the \'perfect\' training has unlocked her hidden strength in her body. She was truly a superhuman right now.
Slowly, she fell down on the ground before her eyes observed the bat, barely able to stand up. The bat was trying to fly, but because the wings were cut down; it was pretty much useless to even try, wasn\'t it? Seems like this one is doing it more on instinct than being conscious about it.
"Consecutive slashes!" Irene shouted with a maniacal smile before
-Whoosh!
She cut the body of the bat, reached the other side, before turning and jumping again at a higher elevation. She cut the bat again and reached the other end and turned again.
The first slash was on the knee, pinning him on the ground, the next one was on the arm, trying to disarm him, the other one was on the eyes, making him lose his sight, then came the leg again, then the area where the broken wings were, and from there, she hit one vital spot after another.
Though the consecutive shots looked random, each of them was aimed precisely. The biggest proof was the inability of the bat to make even a single move against Irene. Forget about counterattacking, it can\'t even dodge or even move away from the position he was in. The bat was simply a sitting duck, taking all the attacks on his body.
"KREEEECHHHH!!!!" the bat screamed loudly as his eyes started shining and a strange pattern appeared on his body, but alas, even then it wasn\'t enough to stop Irene from attacking further. In fact, it made her go even more crazy as she started attacking even faster.
\'Wait!\' My eyes widened as I saw what else was happening in this. Irene\'s stats… they were rising rapidly throughout the fight… She actually happened to get… a new skill…
