Chapter 79 "You'll just have to find out yourself."
"Ugh..." Tessa groaned in pain as her body flew through the air, blood trickling from her mouth.
The force behind Alex's kick was so strong she nearly threw up everything in her stomach.
BAM!
After crashing through the third tree, she finally landed hard on the ground, coughing up more blood.
Arin, seeing this, squinted as he observed her. "I think it's finally time... time for me to intervene..."
In that same moment, his fingernails began to elongate, transforming into claws. The real battle was about to begin.
Arin shifted his gaze toward Alex, who was panting and clutching his leg, an expression of pain on his face.
It wasn't from just kicking Tessa; something else was clearly affecting him.
"Tch..." Alex clicked his tongue in annoyance, gripping his leg tighter and closing his eyes.
Ignoring him for the moment, Arin approached Tessa, who lay on the ground, groaning and writhing in pain.
He crouched down and placed a hand on her back, helping her sit up against a tree for support.
Although her face was hidden, blood was seeping from beneath her mask, showing she was still bleeding.
Slowly, she opened her eyes, staring straight at Arin, who was now close.
Her eyes widened, and she tried to push him back. "Be... careful."
Her voice was weak and strained from the pain, but she managed to get the words out.
"He... might attack you..."
Arin smiled lightly, though she couldn't see it beneath his mask. "Don't worry. He's dealing with some pain in his leg. Probably injured."
Hearing this, Tessa relaxed a little, clutching her stomach.
Suddenly, Arin held up a vial with a green liquid inside.
Tessa managed a weak chuckle, though it clearly hurt. "I'll... never get used to you just... pulling things out of thin air."
"Tch..." Alex clicked his tongue in annoyance. "It's been a while since I used 'it'—maybe that's why it's acting up so much."
He raised his head briefly, meeting Arin's gaze with a smirk. "Finally decided to join in, huh? Guess taking care of those two was enough to get you moving."
For a moment, silence filled the air as Arin's eyes shifted toward Alex's right leg that was now emitting a faint smoke.
"Why are you letting yourself get beaten up?" Arin asked, his voice muffled by his mask.
Alex's expression shifted, clearly confused. "Uh, I think there's a bit of a misunderstanding here. I should be the one asking questions, don't you think?"
He added with a smirk, "I'm pretty sure you all know who I am. So, who are you?"
Silence stretched as the two stared each other down. By now, Alex had let go of his leg, and the smoke had started to dissipate.
Arin closed his eyes, sighing as he took another step toward Alex.
Suddenly, Red Energy began to seep from his hands. His fingernails transformed fully into claws, his fangs extended, though they remained hidden behind his mask, and his eyes turned blood-red.
But that wasn't all.
His hair changed from brown to white, growing until it reached his lower back.
[An Unwritten Event is happening.]
Alex's eyes widened as he watched the transformation, and he wasn't the only one.
Tessa, still seated against the tree, gasped, her eyes widening as she stared at Chaos in his transformed state. "Wh... what just happened?"
Meanwhile, Arin kept moving toward the stunned Alex, a grin hidden beneath his mask.
"You want to know who I am?" he said, voice dark with amusement. "Then you'll just have to find out yourself....."
