Awakened: SSS Ranked Soul king-Chapter 68: Two Prodigies
"That’s strange….those guys shouldn’t be so easily killed" Cyrus muttered under his breath.
Guilliman had described the scene as they saw it to him and could only attach one word to it.
Gruesome.
Severed limbs, ripped body parts and entrails all over the place. This was the description of an overwhelming slaughter.
But still….it didn’t make sense for all to die so easily…
"Amongst the corpse, did you notice any blonde guy with a muitilated face? He should be wearing silver amour with three long swords on his side." Cyrus asked looking seriously at Guilliman.
"Well, it was kind of hard to pinpoint any facial features in that mess, but these would stand out I guess, let me think.....nope doesn’t ring a bell" Guilliman frowned and fell into thought, he couldn’t remember even a strand of blonde hair.
"Ohhh, then the important ones must have gotten out alive" Cyrus nodded, no saying that 50 wasn’t an absurd number of deaths, but if that guy survived? Then other probably did also….maybe a small number though.
"Oh why do you say so?" Guilliman smiled, he was very much interested in people of importance, he wanted to know who to avoid. The blackberry case was still breathing down his neck till this day, he couldn’t aford to enter another one.
"The person I described is Logan Valor, he’s how do I say this? The seconds strongest person in the troop, that’s aside from Sir Dorn" Cyrus explained.
Valor was no doubt the second strongest family in the shelter, the fact that they had been slaughter to such a large extent was probably because they faced something truly horrific.
"If I’m not wrong, he should be one of the few whom the family beliefs will reach Red by the end of this entire thing, he’s already infinitely close to it last time I checked" Cyrus continued.

Barthold was a big kind giant, however, he was really bad at political mingling, when at the training center, aside from fighting and training he didn’t bother to learn who
Was who in the shelter hence him not knowing just how strong the valors really were .
"Hmm, second strongest, yeah right " Victoria scoffed at the statement to the side.
She actually had no beef with this Logan valor, she probably hadn’t met him before to be honest, but she knew this titled belonged to none other than her very close friend Thane.
Logan could not even amount.
"Hehe, we’ll there are a lot of people who disagree with that title…but make no mistake, the arguments are baseless, Logan is inhuman" Cyrus nodded and said.
The stories surrounding Logan were a lot, even his brothers who had long since entered Red still respected him, his ability was just out of this world, the fact that Dorn didn’t beg that monster to follow them in their search for the hallowed beast was something he couldn’t wrap his head around.
"Hmm, to each their own" Victoria smiled and shook her head, there was no number of convincing that would lead him into believing this bull crap.
She knew who was stronger and that was final.
"Speaking of the fog and slaughter, you said something about the blackberries going through something similar?" Guiliman asked a look of curiosity in his eyes.
If they blackberry family’s men got caught in the fog, maybe several of them had died, he hoped that fucker Vincent would be part of the dead.
"Ohhh yeah" turning to his younger brother, Cyrus threw a Slab of meat towards him.
He had his own little cohort here of about 5 slayers all capped at Yellow, right now they were just below them making some meat soup.
"That was crazy to watch, you should ask my little bro Quinn for more in-depth details, though I can scratch the surface " Cyrus said, his little brother was their scout, he had a unique class aspect that allowed him to ride the wind with his senses.
For example, he could be a few miles away, but using the flowing wind, he could project his sense of smell, touch and to an extent sight as far as the proposed wind could carry, so he had seen exactly what happened with the blackberry family.
"First of all, you need to be careful kid" Cyrus looked at Victorias cohort and said with a calm expression on his face
"That guy, Vincent, he’s going to become really powerful" he added before going into great detail on what happened to the blackberry family.
They too got caught In the flow of the fog, it was unexpected and in the instant that followed, they lost more than 5 slayers of high levels.
It was shocking, even prompting Cyrus and his team to take several steps back with Quinn en tow.
Fortunately, Quinn did not disengage his ability so he was able to see exactly how they got out of the bind.
They were saved
By Vincent
The kid from out of nowhere went invisible and started harassing the beasts from the darkeness, he seemed to really be in his element in the fog since his state was no just invisible but also intangible.
Drawing his sword back, the kid placed several well timed attacks on the beasts felling several of them in quick succession.
This not only allowed for the blackberry troops to retreat and find shelter on higher ground, it also showed them that the beast would no attack them if they were high enough.
This of course did not beat the highest benefits they got as Vincent killed many of the beasts before finally retiring to higher ground.
Quinn swore that he saw at least 5 bodies on the floor that night, dissipate into the wind and with them, Vincent’s strength took an abrupt rise.
He might have even gotten an echo or two from it, but after that they didn’t see the blackberry family again.
They had left while the fog flowed towards cyruses group.
"That cockroach" Guilliman smiled bitterly.
Vincent was becoming stronger….he couldn’t let the gap bridge between them if not, next time they met, he would be dead meat.
