Chapter 1960: The Italian Side Job -Part 5
The teleport immediately sent everyone to Italy, Rome right straight to the Colosseum. Given the time difference, they had to wait a little while longer for the crowd to subside …or that was usually the way things worked.
If Jin did not know any better about the Void Beings, it was no doubt the best solution to wait for the monster to appear and they react accordingly. But this time around, everything was different mainly due to the fact that Jin was in possession of a Void Being, Farasha that snappy crocodile with butterfly wings.
Thus instead of waiting for the monster to appear and give them hell on their planet, Jin decided to do the opposite and invade them. The System, on the other hand, felt that it was not the most optimal of solutions as they had always been defending their world from the Void Being invasions. It would be a different story if the humans invaded the Void Being's parallel world.
All he had to do was to put on the System Belt, activate Farasha within it, and with some preparation on his side, he summoned the crack to enter the Void Being Parallel World. The crack would also be small enough to not allow any Void Beings to move through and at the same time not to influence Jin's world with its void energy. It was a quick slip in and out when everything was done.
That was because if Jin was successful in going through the Void Being's parallel world, the rest of the Void Beings might use this as an excuse to hop into the wagon of 'let's kill all the humans because they had interrupted our peace' kind of situation. The humans were already as busy as killing each other in a different part of the world and yet they want another trouble to fall to their lap?
Absolutely not.
Thankfully, Farasha intervened and stated that the Void Beings are mostly solitary creatures, and even if they were to attack the human world, it was only through invitation such as how Farasha came into the picture, or annoyance such as Spartakus.
"There was no doubt that Spartakus had the intention to attack the human world mainly due to the fact that we had been making too much ruckus at his turf.
Or well, that is what I had based on the reports to state this." Farasha replied and Jin also knew that as much as they rather have the Void Being come to the human world to avoid complication, he had been reassured by Farasha that the invasion into the Void Being's parallel world does not have any effect on other Void Beings.
However, at the time they had teleported into the Colosseum, they noticed that there were eyes locked onto the group and surely there were squads of agents coming towards them without warning.
Yet at the same time, they needed to make sure not to alarm the groups of tourists that had been touring the area and so those 'agents' started to incite unconventional warfare to fight against Jin and his group who had entered.
The only problem about such unconventional warfare was that they were facing Kraft, a master in the field of psychological manipulation, and all spells related to it. He naturally defended all the attacks and although he knew that killing them would only make things worse, he still needed to retaliate a little to show that they were messing with the wrong people.
And so, for each spell cast by the agents, it had been reflected and the spells transformed into something more of a silly nature. One that forced the agents who received the reflected spells to be rendered somewhat indolent. Not only that, whatever they spoke out of their mouths was filled with gibberish animal sounds.
It was at that point, more agents popped up and they did not care whether they made a scene or not and started to converge towards Jin's group despite the Foxes' confidence that they could easily topple each and every one of them.
"Put your hands up." One of the older looking agents said and slowly but surely Vatican Guards were seen at the top of the Colosseum and Jin believed that all of these people thought that they were the Banned Emperor Terrorists considering the skin colour and ethnicity which the entire fox group was made out of.
"I am under Italian Head of Demon Exorcist, Sir Diego La Pluma's orders to eliminate the threat that is residing within this Colosseum. If you wish to interfere with our work, I will treat you as the enemy right here right now." Jin declared in Italian and with a local accent, courtesy of the System's aid in mimicking it.
The agents hesitated for a while and did not seem to believe him and the group as they decided to close in a little more.
"I warn you one more time. Take another step in I will not hesitate to knock all of you unconscious just so that no one interferes with our work.
Then you have to handle the aftermath of the news stating that groups of Italian's finest intelligence officers, agents, Demon Exorcists, AND even the Vatican Guards rendered unconscious to a group of Demon Exorcists being hired by Sir Diego from China." Jin continued to threaten them but it was of no use.
"And I warn you one last time. Put your hands up or else."
"Kraft?" Jin asked and Kraft pretended to raise his hands but in actual fact, it was to raise them so he could initiate a clap.
At that point, every single person other than the one who gave the orders to Jin had fallen to the ground unconscious. Even those who were struck with the indolent spell that Kraft had reflected away initially.
When the group saw the entire wave of agents who were on standby to fall to the ground without any signs of waking, they chuckled at the stupidity of the humans who thought that they had the upper hand in this situation.
As the commanding agent saw every single one of his comrades falling to the ground, he quickly reacted by bending down saving one of them from hitting her head on the rails. At the same time, he also checked whether they were still breathing as warned by the group's supposed leader or did the unknown group of possible perpetrators were lying and he needed backup….
Assuming that he could be alive long enough to send the message out.
"You are still breathing…" The agent said and was relieved but now that sense of relief turned into fear. He never expected that there would be such a group who had abilities unknown to him and even though they were not portraying their grades out for him to see, he knew that with this group would not be easy to deal with.
Even without the aura and based on logic alone, if they had came from China to Italy without a portal appearing, it means that someone within the group was exceedingly strong in phasing spells or had cultivated long enough to create a teleportation technique that enabled the whole group to come at such a distance.
And now this act of causing everyone to be unconscious, their intentions might be well intended not to harm the agents but at the same time as it was ambiguous since they could have cooperated and give them the necessary documents to prove it.
Unless…
"Shit, and here I thought I can have an upper hand fighting Spartakus. Looks my gut feeling is right." Jin said everyone in the colosseum suddenly felt an awfully strong aura suppressing their movements. It was to the point where even the commanding agent who was of a high grade level of 11 had been pushed to the ground by it.
But that was not happening to the group that was standing in front of him and then he realised they were not looking at him and instead, towards the sky.
"The sky… cracked?" The agent said to himself and in no time, he could understand the threat he and the Italian Demon Exorcists were facing was of another level that they would never be able to handle it on their own.
It was no illusion as the bright skies continued to remain as it is but there was a kind of glass cracking above them with the darkness from within the slits of those cracks pouring out in high contrast with the bright sunny skies.
"Ermmm… we can just go into the crack now and stop him from coming out. But in any case, Spartakus had allowed us to avoid the scenario where we invade their world. We should be thankful that he helped us to prevent our dear nagging elder from thinking too much." Kiyu said as she referred to the System's concerns and the others chuckled a little.
"Heh, that guy is still struggling against the aura suppression." Ixel said as he side eyed him not because he wished to show concern but wanted to see how the fool struggled against the Void Being.
"Seems like his Magic Grade is at least 10 and above. The rest of the tourists had already fall to the ground already so you do not have to worry about shame." Itori directed her last sentence to the struggling agent.
"Heh. Let him struggle all he wants, we do not have time to care about him. Let's go in and meet with this Spartakus to end this quick. We still got that meeting to hold." Jin said as he put on his System belt and signalled everyone to move into the cracked space leaving the agent pathetically desperate to keep his consciousness alive and breathe.
