Chapter 2: A Life Hanging In The Balance
As Evans left the room, the doctor began preparing for the delivery. The room was filled with an air of tension and anticipation as the mother prepared to give birth. The doctor's hands moved swiftly and surely as he guided the child into the world
Evan's heart was racing as he waited for news of his wife and unborn child. He had never felt so helpless in his life. He had faced countless battles and emerged victorious, but this was different.
Suddenly, a man wearing the Peace Guild uniform came running toward him with a look of urgency on his face.
"What happened John?" Asked Evans
"Sir, the hospital is under attack!" John exclaimed.
"We don't know who they are, but they're after the madam and child!"
Evan's eyes widened in shock and anger. "How dare they try to harm his family! But he also felt a twinge of fear deep within him. Even though he was an S-rank and the strongest warrior in the country, he knew that the current situation is dire as Ji-Woo is giving birth.
Without a word, he sprang into action, his mind racing as he thought of a plan to protect his loved ones. He knew that he had to get to them as soon as possible, but he also knew that he could not go in blindly. He needed information.
"Do we know anything about these attackers? Who are they and what do they want?" Evans asked John.
"We don't know anything yet, Sir, But we're doing everything we can to gather information and secure the area." John shook his head and replied.
The atmosphere outside the hospital gate was tense and charged with anticipation. Reporters from various news outlets had gathered to capture the breaking news of the birth of the child of the S-rank couple. The hospital had taken all the necessary measures to secure the premises, with tight security and a team of guards stationed outside the building.
Suddenly, chaos erupted as the deafening sound of gunfire filled the air.
"What the hell is happening?!" a terrified onlooker shouted, their voice drowned out by the commotion.
In the midst of the mayhem, one of the guards, eyes filled with a sinister glint, opened fire on a nearby colleague. "Traitor!" the fallen guard gasped before succumbing to his injuries.
Panic and confusion gripped the crowd as they scrambled for cover. "Stay down! It's not safe!" a nurse shouted, guiding patients and bystanders toward a nearby shelter.
Meanwhile, the mysterious figures, concealed in the shadows, sprang into action. "Go, go! It's time," a commanding voice whispered through a hidden earpiece.
"As the attackers made their way through the hospital, chaos ensued. People were screaming and running in all directions, trying to find safety!"
A nurse shouted, her voice trembling with fear. "Stay together! We need to protect the patients!".
Meanwhile, in the delivery room, the doctors and nurses were doing their best to keep the mother and child safe. They had locked the door and were using their medical equipment to barricade it, hoping to keep the attackers at bay.
The air was thick with tension as the intense fight raged on between the peace guild members and the intruders. The intruders were dressed in black and had covered their faces with masks, making it impossible to identify them. The peace guild members were outnumbered, but they were putting up a fierce fight using their awakened abilities.
"Keep them away from the delivery room!" Evans bellowed, his voice laced with determination. He gripped his sword tightly, sweat dripping down his forehead.
"No one touches that door!" Evans shouted.
The intruders approached with malicious grins, their weapons glinting in the dimly lit corridor.
"Step aside, old man," one of the intruders came forward to attack with a blade in his hand.
"Not so fast," Evans landed a powerful strike on the intruder.
The intruder has forcefully pushed apart in one single strike, causing his body to burst with blood. Blood was coming out of his mouth and there was a hole in his stomach.
With a single strike, Evans had killed the Intruder.
Meanwhile, John eyes brimming with resolve, joined the fray. He swiftly engaged another intruder, his agile movements evading the enemy's attacks with calculated precision.
"You won't harm them!" John shouted, his voice a mixture of anger and determination.
"Who the hell are you guys?" Shouted Evans
"Which Bastard is behind this attack" Evans continued.
The intruders remained silent as they were ordered.
As the intruders advanced towards the delivery room, Evans' gaze hardened, and flames ignited on his right fist, considering the hospital premise, he directed the attack towards the window.
"You won't lay a finger on my family!" As Evans used his burning Fire fist which he had controlled to a degree on the intruder who was approaching the delivery room.
"Heok" cried the intruder, as he saw his part of his stomach was burnt to a crisp with the attack.
"Thud" as the intruder died on the spot.
The remaining intruders quickly took notice and moved into a defensive formation, unsure of how to approach this powerful adversary.
"You picked the wrong day to mess with me. You will all pay for your arrogance!" Evans sneered at them, flames still burning on his fist, and declared with a fierce voice,
The Sixteen intruders standing in front of the delivery room were a daunting sight to behold. Their powerful aura, nearly as strong as an A-rank individual, sent shivers down the spine of anyone who dared to oppose them.
Even the strongest contenders in the land would have a difficult time facing them, and their power was so overwhelming that even S-rank would get in trouble if handled the situation carelessly.
Despite their fearsome reputation, one of the intruders was already dead, a testament to the strength of Evans. Although they were enough to overwhelm an S-rank individual, they were not able to kill him. With his fists balled up and covered in fire, Evans stood ready to face the remaining intruders.
Evans became a blur of motion as the fight erupted, effortlessly dodging the intruders' attacks.
"This date next year will be your death anniversary" Evan angrily shouted, his fists engulfed in scorching flames.
With lightning speed, he retaliated, landing powerful blows that reverberated with searing heat.
Intruders stumbled back, bewildered and overwhelmed by Evans' speed and relentless ferocity.
"You all are going to die today?" Evans once again jumped and attacked.
The room pulsated with the intensity of the battle as Evans pressed on, his every movement a symphony of precision and power.
The intruders, despite their A-rank power, struggled to keep up, their confidence wavering.
"You're outmatched!" Evans declared, his voice cutting through the chaos.
With a final blow, Evans sent one intruder hurtling through the air, crashing to the ground with a resounding thud.
Silence fell as the defeated intruder lay motionless, a testament to Evans' unstoppable might.
