Chapter 162: It Was A Dragon!

As Jason got closer, his eyes slowly narrowed into a glare and his face morphed into a serious look as he recalled everything that the Santos Twins had told him about the SMD Director. Jason knew that the moment the Director heard about him coming out of the gate, she would know that the Santos twins had failed, so he was going to have to go past everyone immediately and catch her before she tried to escape.

——

On the other side of the gate, the SMD agents and other Enforcers were in the middle of a fierce argument as they tried to make sense of what had just happened inside the gate!

"I swear I saw it! It was a dragon! A fucking dragon!"

"Dragons don’t exist!"

"Are you fucking kidding me!? After everything that’s happened in the last ten years, you still find it hard to believe there could be dragons!? I know what I saw!"

"I saw a wolf! A large wolf that was as black as death!"

"I saw that too! The wolf was almost twelve feet tall!"

"You people are delusional!"

"Stop shouting and let’s talk like adults!"

The enforcers were trying to make the SMD agents calm down, but it was obviously not working. The students who had been taking their assessment were seated at the side and they were curiously watching the entire situation play out. The students had also seen the wolf and dragon that the SMD agents saw, but they were all finding it hard to believe that creatures like that would exist inside a Red Gate!

This was only their first time going into a Gate and they had still been trying to process the spidermonkeys they were fighting when they were suddenly assaulted by one of the most intense pressures that they had ever felt in their lives. It was almost like a physical force was trying to crush them at that moment! And when some of the students dared to look up to see what was causing the pressure, they could swear that they saw a giant dragon spreading its wings out over the forest like a nightmare!

"I think... I’m going to stay away from Gates from now on."

One of the students suddenly said something crazy. It was a female and she had a haunted look in her eyes as she glanced at the Red Gate in front of her. The other students around her turned to her in shock when they heard her say that and one of them quickly told her not to make any rash decisions! They didn’t even know if what they saw was real or not! They couldn’t just make decisions based on something like this!

The girl hugged her body and grit her teeth as she shouted:

"There’s no way that wasn’t real! It was a monster and it could have crushed all of us in a second if it wanted to! If there are monsters like that in Red Gates, then we’re just signing our lives away!"

The girl’s words struck all of them deeply and the other students began to think about whether what she said was right or not, but one of them at the back spoke up before their minds could wander too far.

"I don’t think all the gates are like this. This Gate was just weird."

"Yeah, none of the other superhumans ever said they saw stuff like this."

"We just imagined all that, I’m sure of it!"

"There’s someone coming out of the gate!"

Everyone turned to the Gate again as they saw people coming out and they were all stunned to see Jason, Darren, and Henry leaving the gate together. Jason looked around at all the people gathered there with narrowed eyes. Some of the SMD agents and scientists came around immediately! They thought that Jason and the others were killed, so they were stunned to see him leaving the Gate like this. But they all stopped in their tracks when they saw what Jason was dragging behind him. The dead bodies of the Santos twins were dropped on the ground in front of the SMD agents, and you could almost hear a pin drop in the room from how silent things were!

"Jason. What happened?"

Keith spoke up from this side as he started making his way forward, but Jason didn’t bother to give him a response as he turned and began walking out of the room. Keith called out to Jason once again to try and get an answer and he followed behind Jason as they left the others in the room.

One of the Enforcers standing at the side immediately pointed a finger at Darren and spoke with narrowed eyes.

"Explain. Now."

Darren’s face was sullen and downcast, and when he spoke, there was an undertone of pain in his words.

"I don’t know what happened, Mr. Enforcer. One moment, we were going through the assessment, and the next, these two... they attacked us."

The Enforcer’s eyes narrowed in shock.

"They attacked you?"

Darren nodded.

"Yes, they attacked us. And if not for the boss - I mean, if not for Jason saving our lives... I don’t even want to think about what they would have done to us."

"But they were your instructors. Why would they attack you?"

"I think they were pedophiles—oof."

Henry elbowed Darren once he said this and she gave him a look of disbelief! What the hell was he doing!? He had to sell the story, not make it unbelievable! If he started adding stupid shit like that, then it’d be harder to make them believe it!

The Enforcer raised a brow at both of them and they both smiled awkwardly in return.

...

[Jason’s Apartment]

Gina drove her car into the parking lot of Jason’s apartment and parked it beside the building. The sun had already begun setting in the sky and Gina released a sigh of tiredness as she leaned back in her seat. She checked her phone for any messages from Jason and she frowned when she saw there were none. Gina had been wondering how Jason’s assessment was going for a while now. The assessment didn’t usually take this long, did it?

’I’ll just send him a message.’

Gina typed out a message asking Jason if he was doing alright and telling him to text her once he was done with his assessment and she sent it to him before getting out of her car and walking to the house with her artefact held in one hand. Some of the stronger superhumans in Gina’s guild had been called out to help another guild in a Red gate earlier today and Gina couldn’t wait to tell Jason all about it. The raid took far longer than she thought it would and that was why she was coming back so late, but she was also happy because the guild calling on her meant that they were starting to see her as one of the most important members of the Guild!

The only downside to the whole thing was that Randy, the C Rank that had been competing with Gina for the position of Vice-captain, was starting to become insufferable. Ever since Gina beat Randy in the training exercise, Randy had made it his personal mission to always cause one problem or another for her. Whether it was by going against every suggestion she made in meetings or by telling others that she was only growing stronger because she was using artefacts to boost her power.

It was getting annoying and Gina knew that if it continued like this without anyone doing anything about it, she might start to rethink remaining in the guild.
