Common Sense Hijack System-Chapter 59
Chapter 59: Chapter 59
When Karl just dropped that name with utter confidence, the room suddenly felt like it was shaking, man! A dark light quickly gathered behind Karl, forming a big, dense, and intense shadow. Everyone in the room held their breath, not knowing what the heck was gonna happen next.
John took a step back, his face going from cocky to straight-up terrified. "What the heck is this?" he hissed, looking towards the figure forming in front of them.
From that shadow emerged a tall, sturdy figure resembling a skull with bright red eyes. The figure, known as Undead Platinum, looked like a creature from another dimension, with a deadly aura that sent shivers down the spine of anyone who laid eyes on it.
Karl, still tied to the chair, grinned with triumph. "Obscura, motherfucker! Your dick smells so bad!" Karl smirked.
John steps back and zips up his pants real quick.
Undead Platinum turns to face Karl, as if waiting for a command. With a voice weak but full of determination, Karl gives a short order, "Set me free."
Without hesitation, Undead Platinum moves its giant hand and effortlessly crushes the bindings holding Karl. Karl can finally stand up, feeling liberated, even though his body is still weak from the earlier incident.
John takes a step back, his eyes filled with fear. He tries to maintain his composure, but it’s clear he didn’t expect Karl to have such a powerful ace up his sleeve.
"Don’t think I’m scared just because you brought a skull monster! Damn, are you a wizard?" John tries to hide the tremble in his voice. But Karl just smirks slyly.
"Wizard? Call it what you want!" Karl says calmly but dangerously. "Now, You all Obscura nonsense won’t scare me anymore!" Karl laughs.
Cindy, who’s been standing scared in the corner of the room, whispers weakly, "This all makes no sense... What the heck is really going on?"
Amber and Chloe exchange fearful glances, feeling their fear escalating. They start to realize that Karl isn’t the person they thought he was. He has powers even they can’t fully comprehend.
John, feeling the situation turning against him, tries to change the subject, "Karl, listen to me! I just want to stop you because you’ve gone too far. Your power is dangerous, it can destroy many lives!"
Karl chuckles coldly, "And you think your actions are better than what I’m doing? You’re no different than me."
Karl stares at Undead Platinum and gives the next command, "Teach him not to mess around again."
Undead Platinum, soundlessly, steps forward towards John. Its steps heavy and intimidating, as if death is approaching.
John tries to find a way out, but everything in the room feels trapped in a deadly mystical force. In his heart, he knows resistance is futile.
With one swift motion, Undead Platinum raises its hand, ready to strike John. Just then, Karl smirks slyly, victorious over the person who had tried to belittle him. In an instant, the room is filled with fear, guilt, and overflowing anger.
Karl looks at Chloe and Amber, "Bitch! You all Obscura think I’m bad? Why?" Karl glares, "When in reality, we’re the same. We’re uncommon."
As Karl grins, Undead Platinum steps forward, its dark aura creeping around the room, making the air feel cold and heavy. John, Chloe, and Amber try to hold back their fear, but the presence of the creature clearly paralyzes them. The red-eyed gaze of Undead Platinum locks onto John, still reeling from the earlier attack.
Karl points his finger forward, with a low but threatening voice. "Finish him."
Undead Platinum steps forward, its voice resembling thunder, creating ripples of power on the floor with each thud of its feet. John, already weak, tries to defend himself, but Undead Platinum’s steps are too fast and strong. In an instant, its hand swings towards John forcefully, sending him crashing into the wall, coughing up blood.
Amber screams, "John!" She tries to move forward, fighting the fear gripping her. With courage, she raises the small knife she has, knowing it may not do much against a creature like this.
Karl just laughs slyly, as if enjoying the power he just showed off. "Come on, Amber. You think that little knife can take down something that can’t even die?"
Amber keeps attacking, the knife in her hand speeding towards Karl. Karl dodges nimbly, but Amber manages to scratch his arm, leaving a thin but sharp wound. Karl looks annoyed, which only makes him angrier.
Karl glances at Undead Platinum. "Get them all. I’m bored of this game."
Undead Platinum raises its large shadowy hand, then slams it into the ground, creating a wave of dark power that pushes Chloe and Amber backward. Chloe tries to get up, enduring the pain in her body, while Amber staggers and trembles, her strength nearly gone.
Chloe, with her remaining courage, looks directly at Karl. "Karl, you don’t have to do this. We can resolve this without anyone getting hurt."
Karl just laughs coldly. "Resolve? After you almost made me suck that middle-aged dude’s dick!?"
Chloe stands up, her eyes showing strong determination. "Karl, we may not be as strong as you. But we won’t let you do this without a fight."
Karl shrugs, then gestures to Undead Platinum. In an instant, the creature grabs Amber, who is already exhausted, gripping her with shadow claws. Chloe, witnessing this, rushes forward, trying to save Amber with her last strength.
But Undead Platinum is too mighty. It throws Amber easily, making her fall to the ground, severely injured.
Karl approaches them, his voice full of triumph. "This is a lesson for you all who dared to underestimate me."
The physical strength of Homo Obscura is totally off the charts compared to humans, but their abilities are like, useless against Karl’s badass Uncommon Guard squad!
John got wrecked and was nabbed by Chloe and Amber. Poor Cindy was there, shaking in her boots, as a mere mortal she could do nothing but cry and pee her pants.
Karl glances at Cindy, as she tries to show some guts amid her anger.
"You bastard! You’re just a creepy wizard! In social life, you’re probably just a sad weeb who likes to jerk off to cartoons!"
