Cyberknight: One Path

⁕ The Lynching Game (part 4)

[Harry] - "You Blue Guards have no idea how to properly classify your abilities, yet you dare use our callsigns. A Guilt Extension is supposed to be an ability that strikes your target with precision, dumbass! "

Shouted Harry with bulging veins on his forehead.

In one swift pull, Harry yanked the cover off a massive cloud of green gas hovering inside a specific area beside him.

[Harry] - "You want to use our callsigns so badly? Well, let me teach you peasants another rule about us cyberknights: Anyone who dares use the wrong callsign to confuse an opponent will be shown no mercy or respect in a battle. For you on the left, I suppose a decent death is no longer an option, so fuck civility, am I right? "

Harry suddenly kicked the gas which somehow acted like a solid trapped in a cube of some sort. Upon seeing the gas' distinct colour, Audrey suddenly gasped in fear and shock.

[Harry] - "You are from the French's "Commandos Marine" special forces from that SIG Sauer Model SM-2055 handgun you have. So you must know what this gas is, right? "

[Audrey] - "How the hell do you know about my past? "

Yelled Audrey while covering her pistol.

[Harry] - "It's a small world, isn't it, Viper-5 Seargent Audrey? Turns out the supernatural force your squad encountered back in 2069 on Operation Francois was just my ability. "

Said Harry as he kicked the jammed rifle away from his foot.

[Harry] - "Your defunct government supplied your squad with such shitty rifles and guns. However, this nerve gas here is the magnum opus of your entire squad. With a rapid spread rate and almost instant lethality, the Geneva Convention was more violated than a cheap street whore. "

After overcoming her initial shock, Audrey suddenly lost her cool as she lashed out at Harry only to be reminded of her situation as three of her fingers were suddenly detached from her hand.

[Audrey] - "Espece de sale fils de pute! I remember now, I still remember this dirty ability of yours! You were the one who killed everyone I knew and loved! "

Yelled Audrey with rage in her voice as small cuts appeared all over her lips.

[Harry] - "You came to kill my brother. You also used this fucking nerve gas on me. Now, who's the villain here, Audrey? You were lucky to be alive because I allowed you to escape. I'm no animal like you, I allowed you to escape because I knew you gave up! "

With one swift kick, Harry sent the boxed-up gas out of his ability toward Audrey.

[Harry] - "If we want to talk about morality, Audrey, have I used this gas before you decided to play dirty and trick me? "

While everything went down, Senju moved his arm slowly enough to bring it a position to swing again. However, in one swift move, Harry pulled the same pistol used by Audrey and shot Senju's arm backward, which reset his effort.

[Harry] - "Wait your turn, it's now between me and her. "

Said Harry with a focused look in his eyes.

Thanks to Senju's limbs being cybernetics, the shot didn't harm him, but it would mean his next attack would be delayed beyond the time it takes for the gas to reach Audrey. Meanwhile, there was a resolute look inside Audrey's eyes as she prepared to defend herself.

- Profile: Harry

- Real Name: Harry Cole Miner

- Ability 1: [Trial Through Liminal Space]: "An ability which only works under the condition that Harry actives it in an enclosed liminal space or a space with a long enough transitory area of over 7 metres. Once active, anyone or anything that crosses the space in a predetermined direction by Harry would be subject to an inescapable attack which slices vertically through the intruder or object. Depending on the speed of the target, the ability would automatically multiply the number of strikes by the number of times the speed exceeds 0.1 metres per second. "

- Ability 2: [64-Space Inventory]: "An ability which incases anyone or anything touched by Harry in an invisible cube of variable dimensions. While active, Harry can control what exits or enters the cube. On top of this, the prison cube's walls are extremely resistant to damage and absorb the kinetic energy of anything trapped inside, meaning a trapped individual cannot push and make the cube fall on its side. However, as a compromise, the weight of anything trapped inside remains the same, thus meaning Harry couldn't freely move anything he catches. Also, as told by its name, Harry can field only a maximum of 64 prison cubes at a time. "
