Tightening my fists, I looked at my opponent who was in a daze but still very much conscious and sprinted forward. With his big form seated on the ground, I struck out with several blows to his face, their intensity tuned but gradually increasing when I noticed him refusing to go unconscious and several more veins running up his neck and face. Sensing that despite my hits the bastard was still powering up, my next attack was a roundhouse kick, my leg hitting him as hard as it could and sending his body shooting through the air and crashing into the wall on the other side of the room, his head burrowing through it and his body going still. "That was brutal I muttered" Moving towards the collapsed body, I grabbed the man's thick arms and holding it tight, with a yank pulled the man out of the hole his head had made, observing his bloody face and dislocated jaw. For extra measure, I pulled him away from the wall and holding his neck, Crack!! Letting him fall to the ground, I repeated the same action for the sword guy and then descended to the basement of the house, my eyes quick to spot the bound-up and sleeping forms of Mark and Anna on a bed and with a sigh I picked them and gently resting on my shoulders. The night had initially started with me worrying and fearing for the lives of the two kids, then it had progressed to me worrying about the police, then my whereabouts, my life, money, and now them. Seeing their innocent faces, the darkness which had been consuming me was repelled and with care, I carried them out of the basement. Thankfully there was no Suprise waiting for me when I went back outside the house. I carefully kept their sleeping forms in my car and then went back to the front of the house, dragged the two dead men into the house, turned on the two gas cylinders in the kitchen and then set a bunch of clothes on fire and went out. Though I hadn't done this before, only seeing it in the movies, the physics behind it made sense and as I collapsed into my car, I immediately revved and drove away. There were a lot of things on my mind but getting away from this neighborhood wherever it was, stood at the top. "System my rewards" [Mission, save Mark and Anna from their kidnappers and defeat the leader completed. You have received a 0.5% stake in Ford Motors, You have received 7 blank body attribute points] A grin appeared on my face as I read the rewards but then it turned to a frown when I failed to see the rest of the message. "Hey system, where is the rest of my reward, did you forget the submission" [Submission is yet to be complete] "Huh" I muttered, my mouth agape, " I killed everyone" [Submission is yet to be completed] Seeing the same message I didn't hesitate to step on my brake and make a sharp U-turn, my eyes narrowed as I headed back to house. Speeding forward, I had just gotten the house in my sights looking to slow down and park when the house went up in a fiery intense explosion. "Boom" With the house on fire and everything in it getting cooked, I saw no need to stop and so continued driving, my mind going to the system. "Can I have my reward now" [Sub mission is yet to be completed] "What do you mean…." I started but I couldn't finish my words as a loud roar came from the burning house and looking to my right, I watched a figure charge out of the burning house and ram into my car, the force of the hit sending it skidding off the roads and going off "Hell No" One look at the mighty form of the red flaming figure whom I knew must be the last guy I had beaten, I turned the keys of my car accelerating away when the engine came on. "No way, I'm fighting that thing" I thought to myself glancing back to check on the kids who were thankfully still asleep, but then remembering the consequences of driving away, my lips tightened. "System, how much more stakes do I get if only the leader survives." "Nothing" I groaned within, but then the sound of rapid stomping coming from behind had me looking at my side mirror and baulking at the giant form that was pursuing me. "This bastard" Despite the red creature's towering form, I found myself needing to go 40mph before I began giving it distance, my heart pounding in realization of how fast it was moving. With some more fire, I was quickly getting the creature out of my sight, but then I stepped on the brakes and got out of the car. After driving for over a minute I had given the house quite some distance and the residents of the area I was in were still fast asleep. Out of the car, I began walking towards the red figure who was rapidly closing the distance between the two of us. "System, open shop" My eyes went through the items in the shop, a long katana soon appearing in my hand and then focusing on the creature ahead of me I shot forward. "System, put five blank attribute points in agility" Sёarch* The NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. [+5 agility] The influx of so many points left me for the first feeling a mysterious energy flowing through my body and then my speed shot up. "Boom" Leaving a light crack on the floor, my form accelerated forward, cutting through the wind and appearing before my red enemy in no time. Testament to his own strength, the red giant tracked me, his arms swiping through the air to hit my figure, but easily telegraphing its movement, I stepped out of the way, and zipped around it. I ran at it from the back jumping into the air and swung down my blade. Soundlessly and without obstruction my blade sliced through the thick veiny neck of my opponent, his enlarged form unable to do a thing and as his decapacitated head fell to the ground, so did his body a second later. [Ding Submission completed. All Kidnappers have been killed. You have been rewarded with a 7% stake in Ford Motors] [For your performance tonight, you have been rewarded with 2000xp] [For your performance tonight, you have been rewarded with the twin blessed desert eagles] "Blessed desert eagles" As I walked back to the car, I had two black desert eagles adorned with brown stripes appear in my hand and though I was tempted to test, I resisted the urge to pull the trigger and simply admired their sleek build. "So why are they called blessed" [infinite ammo] "No fucking way" I cried, the desire to fire the weapons stronger than ever but hastily I kept it away, relief leaving my lips. When I got to the car, I looked through the window at the sleeping kids and I entered and closed the door, and as I began driving, I wondered to myself, "Now what"
