Chapter 364: We Can't Have You Feeling Disappointed, Can We?
"Run, you fools!"
The scientists quickly got off their asses as Fiona's blessing took control of them again and forced them to start moving! They ran to the door before it could close! Most of them quickly slid under the door and managed to get to the other side. Only Uriel and one other scientist were remaining to pass through.

ROARRR!!
But before they could get through, an anima suddenly appeared from the side and slammed into them! Uriel screamed in pain as the anima carried her and the other scientist into the air, and Fiona grimaced as she watched the anima eat the two scientists!
The many heads and faces of the anima all fought for various parts of the scientists, and it turned into a bloody scene much faster than anyone could have predicted.
Doon!
The metal door finally closed, and Fiona turned around to look at the many anima that had surrounded her from all sides.
[Fiona, Tyler is on his way! Do you think you can hold out until he gets here!?]
Pat's voice echoed through the comms, and Fiona felt annoyance rising from her stomach as she heard the worry in his tone. Did he really think that she was going to die here? Her?
ROARRR!
An anima suddenly roared as it ran towards Fiona in anger! It jumped towards her with one of its mouths ready to devour her, but before it could get close, a second anima suddenly slammed into the first, sending both of them crashing into the ground! The sound of fighting and grunts of pain echoed through the lab as a small smile spread across Fiona's face.
"Do I think I can hold out? You should be asking how many I can kill before he gets here. Tell Tyler I'm giving him exactly two minutes to get down here. If he comes even one second later, then he's not getting paid for the next five months."
Fiona's eyes flashed as her blessing roared to life.
"Now, you disgusting creatures. Entertain me."
The anima around her all roared in agitation as they began to attack each other! An anima grabbed another one by the head and ripped it in two! It ate the two halves of the head before another anima snuck up from behind it and speared it into the ground!
A fourth anima appeared and stabbed its hand through the three of them before carrying them up and throwing them into a large crowd of anima that were trying their best to tear each other to pieces!
Fiona just stood in the middle of the storm calmly as she held her blessing at its maximum output. She glanced around the room at all the anima attacking each other and hoped that she would be able to hold out until Tyler got there.
A line of blood fell from Fiona's nose, and she quickly used the back of her hand to clean it before she focused again. She was not going to fall here! Not like this!! Fiona's blessing allowed her to control many creatures all at once. But even for someone as talented as her, controlling these many calamity classes was very taxing on her brain.
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!
Boom!
A loud sound echoed through the entire lab as spiderweb cracks traveled across the roof! Fiona looked up quickly once she heard the sound and a small smile spread on her face as she realized that it must be Tyler. That idiot! He took longer than two minutes, so there's no pay for him!
A shadowed figure fell from the roof and crashed into the ground, throwing large amounts of dust everywhere. It was tall and muscular with masculine features that looked just like Tylor. Fiona waved her hand in front of her face to get rid of the dust that accumulated around her before smiling.
"You've really outdone yourself this time, Tyler. Allowing me to wait for you for this long. I'm very disappointed in you."
Fiona might've sounded disappointed, but there was no hiding the smile on her face as she spoke. Fiona was obviously happy that Tylor was here to help her out. She didn't know how long she would have been able to keep holding all these anima under her control like this. A tall figure stood from the dust cloud, and an amused voice echoed through the lab.
"Oh? Are you disappointed? Well, now, we can't have that, can we? I'll try my best to make it up to you."
Fiona's entire body locked up in shock once she heard that voice, and goosebumps traveled from the very soles of her feet right up to her scalp as fear filled her heart!
That voice. It wasn't Tyler.
It was definitely not Tylor!
Bright yellow hair that looked like a lion's mane. Large arms with black tattoos covering one of them. A Hawaiian shirt, casual shorts, and a pair of sandals that betrayed the sinister bloodlust leaking from every part of his body.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't the little SOVEREIGN's guild leader. How unlucky of you to run into me twice in the same week. You must've committed some sort of heinous crime in your past life for you to have this amount of bad luck."
Only one voice could put so much fear into Fiona's body, and Fiona felt her heart rate spike once the man appeared from within the dust. The leader of the RAVAGERS guild and the most sinister member of the SOVEREIGN. Gunter Jake.
Run. Run.
Run!
Run!!
You need to move!
Fiona's body refused to listen to her! Her legs were like lead, stuck in the ground, and no matter what she did, she couldn't move them! Fiona couldn't even fucking blink!! It was like she was a deer caught in headlights, just waiting for the car to reach her! Fiona had never felt this before in her life! Normally, Fiona would never be afraid of anyone.
Even those that were much stronger than her would only make her angry instead of afraid.
But when faced with the full force of a SOVEREIGN's bloodlust, it didn't matter how strong your pride or ego was. It didn't matter how strong you thought you were. There is only one thing that passes through your entire body at that moment.
Fear.
Pure, uncontrollable, unbearable Fear!
[FIONA! WAKE THE FUCK UP AND RUN!!]
Fiona jolted like a rabbit once Pat's loud voice echoed in her head, and she was able to use that as an anchor to come back to reality! She focused on Pat's voice, and that gave her a single moment when she wasn't focused on her fear, and she quickly jumped back far from Gunter!
"Get him!"
Fiona turned to the side and ran like a bat out of hell as she shouted out to the room, and Gunter hummed curiously as he watched her running. Who was she talking to?
ROARRR!!
The anima in the room all raced towards Gunter with the intention of tearing him apart, and Gunter hummed again in realization. So that's what she meant. She was trying to use the anima as her attack force.
A chuckle bubbled up from Gunter's chest. It began small and almost inaudible, but over time, it started growing louder until he was laughing his ass off like a madman!
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! When Salazar told me there was something wrong! I thought it was that Mark boy! I thought maybe I would get a real challenge! But is this really the best his guild leader can do!? These ants!
You are trying to use ants against me, woman!? ME!!"
