"Stay away!" Nathasia shouted as she glared at the two but inwardly, her heart was racing as she continued to think of possible ways she could escape from these vile men.
Her hand also slowly moved towards the back of her waist while the two men began to slowly approach her with sinister smiles.
"Don't be scared, pretty kitty. We uncles promise to take good care of you," Tony said as he licked his lips. He couldn't remember the last time he came across such a beauty. The only ones he came across were too ugly or were broken in some other way.
"That's right. Let's show you how energetic men like us are, hahaha," Moby laughed sinisterly.
Nathasia suddenly took out the gun that was tucked behind her pants and aimed at them, "Get the hell away from me! Or I will shoot!"
The men were surprised, but then they swiftly readied their rifles as well, taking advantage of Nathasia's panicked state.
'Shit!' Nathasia realized that it was too late to shoot now that they were pointing their guns at her as well.
She had only learned the basics of using a gun from her father. But other than that, she had no real-life experience of using it against someone.
And because of that, her reflexes were too slow to prevent them from reading their guns.
"Easy there, girl. You don't wanna hurt yourself with that, trust me," Moby slowly said as he continued to point his rifle at her.
"Pretty lady, there is no point in aiming that at us. We are two, and you are only one. Even if you shoot, one of us will certainly kill you. So, put that down before you force our hand!" Tony said in a menacing tone, making Nathasia take short breaths in apprehension.
The two men were confident of shooting the girl first since they could see how nervous she was and how she was not used to pointing guns at people by seeing the way she was holding her gun.
Nathasia knew that they had caught onto the fact that she was not used to such a situation, especially not dealing with such people since she had enjoyed the protection of her family so far.

But now, her hands felt clammy, and her grip over the gun was becoming unstable, feeling the intense pressure coming from the two rifles pointed at her.
*BANG!*
"AHH!"
Moby took a gamble and fired at her gun, forcing the gun out of Nathasia's hand, who was frightened out of her wits because of Moby taking a quick shot.
She thought that he shot at her only to find out that he was aiming for her gun.
But this didn't make the situation any better since she was now unarmed and helpless against the men holding the rifles.
"To think that such an innocent-looking beauty was carrying a gun," Moby laughed smugly after shooting off her gun.
"I know, right. I guess we should never let pretty faces fool us," Tony smirked.
Nathasia gulped as she stumbled backward, her legs feeling weak. But her back hit against a tree, making her seem very vulnerable to the two dangerous men before her.
She bit her lips in fear, anger, and despair, wondering whether she was going to end up as one of those unfortunate girls without no one to look out for them.
These two were feeling quite frustrated for not getting it on with a beautiful woman due to how tough their luck had become.
Thus seeing such a gorgeous beauty like Nathasia was like a heavenly treat for their eyes and a target for them to vent all their lust and frustration.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Feeling how they were looking at and treating her like some 'prey', she felt intensely disgusted.
And seeing how Moby was approaching her, she was prepared to hit him in the balls and run even if there was a possibility of the other guy shooting her.
She knew how she would end up and what would happen to her once these two men get their dirty hands on her.
However, her eyebrows raised when she saw something within the mist getting closer behind the two men.
"Oooh, look at her. She seems like a virgin, haha," Moby chuckled as his lips curved.
"Indeed, the biggest prey we ever scored," Tony said as he put away his rifle and hastily walked towards Nathasia with lust gleaming in his eyes.
"Prey?" A man's grim voice sounded behind the ears of the two men, making them startle and turn around with their rifles.
They were shocked to see a tall man with a scarf around his face looking at them with a hostile gaze.
Nathasia, for some reason, felt so safe and ecstatic seeing the man. But since the two men had guns, she was worried about the mysterious man and was about to hit the two from behind when the man easily caught the muzzle of their long rifles.
Moby and Tony were taken aback when the man easily caught their rifles just when they were about to shoot at him.
Not only that, but when they tried to wrestle out their guns from the man before them, they were unable to move an inch.
The man, without much effort, wrestled out the two rifles from their grips and rammed the stock of the rifles against the faces of Moby and Tony, slamming them down to the ground.
*WHAM!*
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})"Ughhh!*
"Arghhh!"
The two fell to the ground powerlessly, their jaws fractured with blood oozing out of their mouths.
Nathasia was shocked seeing how the mysterious man easily beat down these two sinister men without breaking a sweat while she almost lost her life trying to fight back.
However, now she was finally able to take a good deep breath as her heart completely relaxed, no longer feeling scared or despair.
"Aghhhh….whftt….tbe...heck...." Moby incoherently groaned as blood filled his mouth.
Tony was in no better shape as the bridge of his nose was broken.
But he didn't even feel like uttering anything out of fear of this weirdly powerful big man before them.
They could see how tall and muscular he was. And seeing how effortlessly he beat down the two of them, they knew that he was a man with training and strength, especially not someone to be trifled with.
The man threw away one of the rifles with a fling of his arm and said in a severe tone, "Next time you two try something like this, I will bring my entire AWA Squad Number 1 to take care of the two of you. And then you two won't see the daylight anymore."
Moby and Tony's eyes widened when they heard the name 'AWA' since it meant that this man was part of an Ascended Squad tasked by the military to take down the Crimson Devil.
Even Nathasia was surprised that she had come across a powerful Ascended tasked with the mission to take down the most dangerous man in the world.
Now she and the two men understood why he was so strong and how he was able to take down the two men like an adult toying with kids.
"Now get out of my sight!" The man said with gritted teeth, making the two feel a chill down their spines.
Moby was seething with anger, feeling intense indignation, and having to lose both of his 'prey' today.
Tony was, however, able to see the big picture and somehow pushed himself to get up and pulled up Moby as well.
Tony now only wanted to get out of here since he didn't want to stay anywhere near an Awakened one knowing how normal people often get bullied and sometimes killed for no reason by them.
After all, laws and government no longer had the same power as before but only existed in name just to have some control.
But strength was slowly starting to take precedence in the world, especially with the onset of the Ascended ones.
Tony saw the look in Moby's eyes, and knowing how relatively more deranged he was than him, he gave him a glare to swallow down his anger and walk away with him.
Moby finally began to walk away with Tony, trying to swallow his indignation just as Tony gestured him to.
The man gave them a hateful glare before turning away to look at Nathasia, who had a big smile on her face and was looking at him with sparkling eyes.
"You were too awesome!" Nathasia said in an elated tone, but her eyes widened when she saw Moby pulling out a revolver from somewhere in her peripheral vision.
Thinking that he was about to shoot at the mysterious man, she tried to run forward and push the man away, but the man's senses were faster since he already heard the cocking of Moby's revolver.
He slightly turned his head to see that Moby was pointing at Nathasia strangely instead of him.
Moby felt it hard to bite down his anger and so decided to finish the man. But then, remembering that he was an Ascended one, he decided to shoot the girl instead, thinking that if he can't have her, then nobody can, not even her man.
He assumed the mysterious man to be her boyfriend, and so he sadistically decided to kill her before him.
*BANG!*
