Yes, she was being hopeless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, she thought about visiting the hospital. If she came across Kyle, she could lie and say she had a relative admitted there. But then she heard from Hannah that Blake had been moved to the main house for obvious reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His recovery was beyond possible, so keeping him in an unfamiliar environment would only add to the Astortia patriarch’s stress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Amanda couldn’t possibly go and visit Kyle’s home, could she?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she was currently on her way to fulfill the job she had taken as a cover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bzz\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she moved closer to the building, she felt her phone buzzing again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clicked her tongue as she took it out and saw that it was from Ethan. Once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What’s his problem?’ He had been pestering her a lot these days, especially after she broke up with Kyle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Has he lost his mind? Does he want to hear something directly from her before he finally stops?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading the message that said he was coming over to inspect the site with her, Amanda knew she had to draw the line or leave the team for good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She decided to rush to the site, finish her duty as quickly as possible, and somehow avoid meeting that freak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, she had respected Ethan when things were normal. He was a strong warrior, someone who has gone through experiences which could emotionally break anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for the last six months, he had started keeping her increasingly occupied with work. The Commander was always on his side as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was constantly forced to stay away from Kyle because of such assignments, work that even a trainee could have handled. And as a result, Kyle lost his temper and now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If only we could go back to how things were...’ Her eyes grew hot as she remembered a time when life had been beautiful because of a single person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking her head, she hurried past the crowd and entered the outskirts of Fortis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The building she approached had been abandoned a week ago because of the deaths occurring around the site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, the Paranormal Suppression Corps had noticed the anomalous situation, and given the isolated location, they did not even need a sensor to know that a rift had appeared there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, due to a shortage of staff, the area had only been blocked off by the CPB (Civil Protection Bureau), and no Nightwalker had come to inspect the site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda crossed the last alley and reached the location marked on the map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stuffed her phone back into her pocket, ready to locate the rift using her senses. But then her whole body seized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What...\" Her irises shrank, her heart slammed against her chest, and her mind went blank for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heavy, oceanic wave of Genesis erupted from inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A form of energy she herself possessed, a sign of life... However, the sheer intensity of it nearly forced her to her knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment of deathly calmness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOOOOM\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An explosion erupted, not of flames but of pure Genesis. The entire western edge of the building burst apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda could only stare in horror as the four-storey structure began to collapse. Pillar after pillar, beam after beam gave way. Dust and debris surged upward like a rising cloud, and the thunderous roar of the collapse filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was nothing she could do except watch the destruction unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes searched the chaos for anyone. Maybe a Nightwalker had arrived just in time and a battle had led to this outcome. But no matter how much she thought about it, she could not recall any Nightwalker capable of releasing such a condensed presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze suddenly caught a figure emerging from the ruined building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person wore a dark hood and limped on his left leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure turned and looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, their eyes met, and Amanda froze where she stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Amanda!\" a voice called from behind, making her instinctively turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan was rushing toward her in panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She immediately snapped her head back toward the limping figure, only to find that no one was there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confusion and disbelief crossed her face as she muttered, ’It couldn’t be... could it?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah... haah... haa...\" Kyle sat beside a garbage bin, his back pressed against the wall as he clutched his injured left arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things had gone out of control back there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could not even remember exactly what had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he wished for his Soul Points to be used to obtain Ethara’s reward, everything changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ghoul had actually tried to escape back into the Rift as the battlefield shifted into something completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The armament in his hand carried a presence so overwhelming that it left Kyle staggering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not even need the system’s guidance to use it. The action came naturally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, your knee and shoulder are bleeding. You need to see a medic soon.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle chuckled. \"Did you see that? The destruction I caused?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[...the system witnessed it, host. The host used one of the most potent projectiles to take down just a ghoul.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle let out another chuckle. \"That ’just ghoul’ was about to rip me into shreds. I did what my instincts told me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system did not argue with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle exhaled slowly and folded his uninjured leg, resting his arm on his knee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was intoxicating to wield such power and completely overwhelm the battlefield. Yes, it had taken a lot out of him, but in the end, he stood victorious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on top of that,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have earned: 2000SP]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle grinned. \"Now that’s something I wouldn’t mind staring at for hours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>°°°°°°°°\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A\u002FN:- Kyle actually didn’t see Amanda clearly because of dust and exhaustion.
