"We haven't got the entire day. Move and capture the girls." the brown-haired man said with a calm expression.
"Yes, Sir!", the people behind him replied in unison.
"Hey you, come here.", the man beckoned one of the seven guys behind him.
"Yes, Sir." the guy came forward and stood with his back straight.
"You have done a good job. I will make sure to get you rewarded. But I will take you with me to headquarters. You will follow me from now on", the brown-haired man said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Derek", the guy replied in joy.
That guy there was the very same guy who had questioned Max and Axle earlier at the entrance of the secret passageway.
Since he wasn't convinced, he decided to find it out for himself and while doing so, he bumped into this person who had apparently been sent by the Main branch following the order of Master Greed.
And the rest was what led to the current situation. His information at the correct moment allowed this person to take quick action and intercept them there.
"Now get to work." The man called Derek spoke and waved his hands.
"Yes, Si-"
But before they could continue any further, a heavy and baleful aura with a dense killing intent started to leak out on the streets.
"Hm..." Feeling that something was wrong, everybody stopped in their tracks.
Derek frowned as he scanned his surroundings and failed to find any person.
The girls shivered at the terrifying aura which started to form illusions for them.
It was ordinary for weaker people to see illusions when placed in such situations.
Lisa's eyes widened and she turned her head towards the body lying at the right side on the pavement.

She had felt the same aura from him, the last time he rescued her. She continued to stare at Max hoping for her deduction to be true.
And finally, his hands quivered.
She couldn't help but tear up as her eyes started to water and she hugged Axle tightly in her arms without noticing it herself.
It wasn't difficult to imagine her action. Just put yourself in her situation. Would you be happy to see the guy who saved your life, die right in front of you?
…..
"Come out, I really am not a fan of hide and seek." Derek said as he carefully scanned his surroundings.
There wasn't any response, but as the aura became stronger, it's direction became obvious too.
When Derek followed the aura, and his gaze landed on Max. He couldn't help but let out a gasp in excitement.
"Woah!"
"You are really making it exciting for me. I haven't felt this feeling in a long time."
"Ha..Ha…"
'This man really was a maniac. Even the faces of the man around him twitched.'
"I..Will...make...sure...it..to...be..your..last.. time…"
Suddenly an eerie voice sounded in the street.
Everyone felt a chill run down their spine as the hairs on their body rose on the feeling of danger.
Derek was the only one feeling excited at that moment. He faced forward to see the guy slowly rising back to his feet. The guy's eyes were blood red and the wounds on his body and the bloodstains on his clothes really made his appearance frightening.
And after getting back on his feet he slowly spoke under his breath as he released the vapors from his mouth.
"K..KI...KILL"
….
Max didn't know what was happening to him. He just felt a strong desire to kill.

When his body started to move once again, He could only see the brown-haired man and his lackeys.
Yes
It was him.
KILL THEM! KILL THEM! KILL THEM! KILL THEM! KILL THEM! KILL THEM! KILL THEM! …..
…
…
…
There were several voices ringing Max's head and he could only feel his crave for blood increase.
….
"Show me what yo-", before Derek could even complete his sentence he lost the sight of Max in front of him.
His smile froze and in a moment it completely disappeared.
"Shnk!"
As the noise rang, everyone turned around but they couldn't find anyone there except a headless man whose body was spurting out blood.
"Thud!"
The man's body finally fell to the ground and nobody even dared to let out a breath.

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.
