The hazy moonlight draped over the forest.
The chorus of insects fell silent in an instant.
The killing intent saturating the clearing was like a set of invisible hands tightening around the throats of Kosofftro and the others.
A second ago, Moses had subdued his enemy with a single move.
That Aura-infused strike sent Genthru to the ground in agony.
Immediately after, the overwhelming killing intent from All Extinct stunned Kosofftro's group into silence.
Jispa, the self-proclaimed strongest fighter of their team, managed to respond, only to be swiftly dispatched by Biscuit with a reverse-handed strike, leaving him unconscious on the spot.
The situation on the field froze at this moment.
Shock rippled across Kosofftro and the others, rendering them speechless.
That speed…
It was so outrageously fast that they couldn't even finish chanting a spell.
At this moment, engulfed by Moses's killing intent, an overpowering sense of helplessness welled up within them.
Kosofftro is recognized as the second strongest fighter in this group.
He has a face shaped like a skull, with two large front teeth exposed, and he always carried a sheathed longsword.
The moment Jispa started to move, Kosofftro should have reacted, drawing his sword to strike at Moses, who had taken down Genthru with one move.
However, the terrifying killing intent that was coming towards him made Kosofftro suddenly 'see' a huge 'Asura' rising from the shadows, with a long, ink-black sword in its hand reflecting astonishing killing intent and sharpness.
There's no chance.
From the very first second, the outcome was already decided.
Cold sweat streamed down Kosofftro's face without him realizing.
If there was still a chance, it lay in his teammates activating their movement-type spell cards…
But after a few seconds, the silence of his companions made Kosofftro feel deeply desperate, and the last ray of hope in his heart was completely shattered.
However, he couldn't blame his companions. He could even understand their reactions.
Moses's eyes quickly swept over Jispa, who was now lying at Biscuit's feet. Without saying anything more, he lifted his leg and drove a heavy kick into Genthru's side.
Bang!
Genthru was hit and flew out sideways.
Under Moses's intentional control, his body fell twenty meters away.
Just beyond the range of any multiple-targets card effects.
After kicking Genthru away, Moses flashed again like a ghost and instantly appeared next to a chubby man.
This chubby man was also an early member of this player group, Nomdieu.
He was responsible for restraining Valian, who was under the effects of multiple spells. Naturally, that made him Moses's next target.
"Move."
Moses's voice was calm as he appeared beside Nomdieu.
Nomdieu's body trembled, and his breathing became rapid at a speed visible to the naked eye.
'I... can't see him at all...'
'Who on earth is this guy?!'
Torrents of disbelief surged through Nomdieu's mind.
In this situation, he could only move his rigid, machine-like limbs to step aside, fully aware of his powerlessness.
Seeing that Nomdieu was very cooperative, Moses nodded slightly, casually hoisted Valian with one hand, and walked towards Biscuit, as if he was strolling in the garden.
During this time, Kosofftro and others could only stand still.
Halfway through his steps, Moses suddenly stopped.
His action caused Kosofftro and the others to tremble slightly.
"You'll thank me later."
Moses looked back at Kosofftro and the others, and said.
In the original work, all the players in this group perished at Genthru's hands.
But it can't be said that they'd been careless...
After all, who would have suspected the Bomber had been hiding among them for five years?
That level of patience and calculation was beyond ordinary comprehension.
After saying this, Moses turned away, hauling Varian along without caring about their reactions.
Biscuit also dragged the incapacitated Genthru and followed closely behind Moses.
Drip. Drip.
Sweat dripped from Kosofftro's chin, darkening the ground below.
'No… I can't...'
Kosofftro opened his eyes wide, and his right hand, which was clinging to the hilt of the sword, could not draw the sword out of the sheath no matter what.
All he could do was watch helplessly as watch Moses and Biscuit took Genthru away.
His gaze finally fixed on Moses's back as he gradually disappeared into the shadows.
That crushing sense of helplessness clung to him like parasites, gnawing at his body and will.
As Moses and Biscuit vanished into the darkness, the players were left in suffocating silence.
After a moment-
They suddenly looked up at the sky and saw a ray of light representing the effect of Accompany Card streaking through the night sky above the sparse woods, heading off into the distance, and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
…
Boom.
A beam of white light descended from the sky to the ground, and then shattered like broken glass, revealing the figures of Moses and his group.
Subject No. 2, who was controlled by Kyoka Suigetsu, stood quietly to the side.
The two difficult-to-obtain Accompany Cards were taken from this person.
One of the same was used on Genthru, and the other was used on him.
Perfect for a round trip, which is very convenient.
"Next..."
Moses glanced at Genthru lying on the ground and casually conjured his black sword.
After a while.
Genthru's body was covered with black tendrils, and an Eye of Sigh was suspended above his forehead as Kyoka Suigetsu activated successfully.
Moses checked Genthru's throat injury quickly and found that it was not to the extent that he could become mute. Given a moment, he should still be able to speak and issue commands.
Back then, things had escalated so quickly that Moses had attacked on instinct to prevent Genthru from using a movement-type card to escape.
Had circumstances allowed, he could've controlled the force better.
"Book."
Under the control of Kyoka Suigetsu, Genthru summoned his Binder with a hoarse voice. Then, he took out the Blue Planet, a card ranked SS-5 in difficulty, from his Binder.
Biscuit glanced at the cards in Ganshu's hand.
Just by looking at the sample picture on the card, she was already looking forward to it.
"GAIN."
Genthru held the card and spoke again.
This is the command to cancel the card status.
Poof!
Along with a sudden burst of white smoke, the card suddenly turned into an exquisite and small blue gem. It looked like a perfectly miniaturized Earth, with light swirling within its core, radiating a translucent, captivating beauty.
When Biscuit saw the Blue Planet in Genthru's hand, she was immediately captivated by it and couldn't tear her gaze away.
In Greed Island, players could turn any item they come into contact with, even something as mundane as a pebble, into a card.
But each item only has one chance to become a card.
That is to say, by reverting the Blue Planet back into its physical form, Genthru had forfeited the chance to ever turn it into a card again.
