The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

[POV Rumi]

I watched the whole broadcast even though it was completely boring most of the time. I think Reo gave them too much time to evacuate… that is why they didn't fight back more vehemently. They gave up as soon as the city was evacuated. ​ ​

Though, I don't mind that Reo gave them too much time. Even though I would have loved to see a much more intense fight, I was happy that most of the people were able to get away. After all, most people in that city were completely innocent.

I hope I could have been there by Reo's side… the fight would have been slightly more interesting for me as I don't have metal controlling powers like Reo. Now, I want a fight too… even if it's against some weaklings I want to have a fight. Reo finally returned after he set the whole city ablaze with those cursed flames… I don't know why Reo loves those flames so much… from my instincts I know that those flames are very dangerous.

"So, did you like the show?" Reo asked me after he finished greeting the other girls. I didn't give him an answer… instead I pulled him down and locked my lips with his.

Only after a minute, I allowed him to pull back. I have to say the kiss was quite intense, even more so because now I am excited to get a fight. "Whoa! You seem really excited… did you enjoy the fight that much?? I thought it was rather boring for my tastes" Reo said to me after he pulled away from the kiss.

I slightly frowned when I heard him… "At least you were able to get a fight even if it was boring, I was kinda trapped here on this island" I grumbled in annoyance.

Everyone including Reo just chuckled after they heard me grumbling in annoyance. "Reo, why don't you let Rumi deal with our minor spy problem?" while giggling Fleur spoke up. What?! Spy problem??!! Why haven't I heard about this? I would have been happy to deal with them. I looked towards Reo who looked contemplative for a few moments before he nodded his head.

"Sure, Rumi you can deal with them… Scott Summers and Hank McCoy, you can get the information from Raven" Reo told me in a firm voice. Oh… ok, that means no messing this one up.

"You don't mind me dealing with them right now, do you? My hands are itching for a fight" I said in an excited tone and cracked my knuckles.

"Sure, but stay safe" Reo said while chuckling. I gave Reo another kiss and walked out of the room. So, now, let's find Raven, she must be in her office or Eric's office.

I went straight to Raven's office and found it closed. Well, it is quite late but she works late… everybody on the island knows that. I decided to visit Eric's office… she might be holed up in his office. While I was on my way, I found a grunt from Eric's group and asked him where I could find Raven. The guy told me that Raven had already called it a day, she was meeting one of her old friends. I asked the guy for directions and he happily pointed me towards Eric's room.

I quickly made my way towards Eric's room and knocked on his door. Eric himself opened the door and invited me in.

"Is there a reason for such a late-night visit?" Eric asked me while leading me inside. He wasn't wearing his usual cape and helmet now… when we finally arrived in the kitchen I saw Raven sitting there in her natural form along with a blond-haired woman… she must be the friend the guy mentioned.

"There is a reason, actually, but I wanted to talk with Raven" I said and sat down when Eric gestured towards me a chair. Raven looked at me with a questioning look on her face while Eric handed me a bottle of beer.

"Oh… pardon my manners… this is the first time I saw you here. Let me introduce myself, I am Rumi Usagiyama" I said and extended my hand towards the blond woman. After all, it is rude to ignore someone…

She took my hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you, I am Emma Frost" the blond woman said introducing herself.

"So, what do you need?" Raven asked bringing my attention back on her. Eric finally sat down but remained quiet without saying anything.

"There are two spies on this island, I wanted to deal with them. I know that I would get the information from you so I came here" I spoke without beating around the bush. Both Eric and Raven were slightly taken aback.

I heard Emma snort and all of us turned towards her "Obviously there would be spies… I would have been surprised if there weren't any spies" Emma once again snorted and said, I guess I can agree with her. Even though Reo is giving all these meta-humans a safe haven, there are still some meta-humans who would turn on their own kind.

"So, who are they? Do you know their names?" Raven asked me while gritting her teeth. She was holding back her anger… it was clearly showing on her face.

"Scott Summers and Hank McCoy" I said their names leaning down on the table. I saw both Eric's and Raven's eyes widened when understanding dawned on them.

"Charles! You bastard!!" Eric screamed out in anger and shot up from his chair. He started to curse Charles while pacing around the table.

"Charles! You mean the fool on wheels?" I asked out loud in a confused tone.

"Yes, Charles Xavier, both Scott Summers, and Hank McCoy are his butt buddies" Emma said with disgust clear in her voice. Does she also know the two of them?

"You know them?" I asked looking towards Emma.

"Rumi, you have seen Scott before, remember the guy with those odd glasses and punchable face" Raven said to me in a melancholic voice. Yeah, I remember him now… I forgot about him because he wasn't anyone important and I didn't think that I would get a chance to actually punch him.

"Yeah, I remember that fool. So, who is the other fool?" I asked looking towards Raven but Eric decided to answer my question.

"A stupid blue monkey. So, how are you going to deal with them?" Eric asked me, he was still pacing around the room. I was surprised that steam wasn't coming out of his head… his face was almost purple in anger…

"Dunno! Maybe break their bones and then toss them into the ocean" I said in a dismissive tone and shrugged. Scott is a complete fool and I wanted to punch him so badly the last time… and Hank McCoy must also be a fool if he had decided to side with Charles.

"So, what do you want me to do?" Raven asked me getting up from the table. I have wasted a lot of time here, I quickly gulped down the rest of the beer in my bottle.

"Nothing! You will stay back and handle the crowd. I need to spread the word that they were spies… wrong information could lead to problems on a later date" I answered Raven, I first came here to get information from Raven about Scott Summers and Hank McCoy, but now, I am pretty sure that I will be able to recognize both of them.

But what I told Raven to do was also important, after all, Elysium is just in its starting phases and we can't have instability on this stage. It's much better if people know what is happening instead of hiding it from them… this is much better than wrong information being spread.

"Sure, so when are you going to deal with the traitors?" Raven asked me, I saw her eyes were ablaze in fury.

"Now, let's go" I said finally getting up from my chair. Emma decided not to join us. Raven and Eric called their whole group to the temporary residential area. On our way, the three of us chatted about what happened in Nebraska City. Eric and Raven both believed in meta-human supremacy so they were quite happy with the show.

It took us some time to arrive at the temporary residential area. Eric's group quickly spread out among the crowd. It was pretty late now, but some people were still awake. A lot of people were enjoying a bonfire sharing stories and food along with beer. We quickly arrived at the place where Scott and Hank were assigned their tents. We found both of them sitting along with two other meta-humans.

"…how can we trust a monster like that?" I heard Hank speak. Yeah, he is a stupid blue monkey. It was clear that he was filling the other meta-humans with poison. This would have been bad if more meta-humans were willing to listen to this fool.

We were quite far from them but because of my heightened senses, I was able to hear Hank. Their group didn't take long to notice us and shut up completely. Leaving Raven and Eric behind I walked forward. On our way, I had already called dibs on both Scott and Hank. Eric happily allowed that…

"Hank McCoy, don't mind me, please continue" I said, gesturing him to continue speaking but he stubbornly remained silent.

"Why are you here?" Scott growled out in anger.

"Isn't it clear? I came here to throw out the trash" I said and I could feel my bloodthirst oozing out.

All of them immediately got on guard, even though I already wanted to start the fight I held myself back. I noticed that the crowd had already started to gather around "You two can get away if you want… I am not here for you two" I said and pointed towards the two meta-humans who were listening to Scott and Hank who were spouting bullshit.

"I want those two traitors. After all, they were passing on information to the human nations about our island" I said pointing towards Scott and Hank but the other two meta-humans nervously stood their ground.

"What are you going to do with them?" one of them nervously asked me.

"Break their bones and throw them in the ocean" I told them the truth after all, I would gain nothing from hiding.

"No, you can't do that" the other one protested vehemently.

"Yes, I can. Now, do you really want to support two traitors who were selling us out to the human nations or get the hell away from them?" I asked them in a no-nonsense tone. I was really getting annoyed now.

The crowd started to clamor for their punishment. Currently, all the meta-humans on this island were really angry at humans and now, that the truth is out that Scott and Hank were selling our information to the human nations everyone hates them. The other two meta-humans looked at each other nervously but before they could act I saw Scott's hand went towards his google and he pressed some button at the side and a red ray was shot towards me from his glasses.

No one was able to react with how fast it happened but nobody needed to react. I activated Armament Haki on my left arm and raised my palm in the ray's direction. The ray hit my palm but nothing happened… everyone took a step back when they saw Scott suddenly attack me but they stopped when they saw that I stopped it without any effort on my part.

Even Scott and Hank were taken aback by how easily I dealt with that ray… Scott is firing that ray from his eyes… which means if he has no eye then there will be no rays. I pointed my right hand in his direction and shot two eye-gouging hexes at him. The reaction was instantaneous… Scott's goggles burst out in a spray of blood and Scott dropped to the ground screaming in pain. Scott was grabbing his bloody face and rolling on the ground in pain. Everyone around us turned completely pale when they saw how brutal I was.

"You Bitch!!" I heard a scream from the side and I only needed to raise my right arm to stop Hank's lunge at me. A gave him a solid left jab and his whole body was thrown away… I didn't even use Armament Haki to punch him or he might have died like that fragile guy in the helmet.

"Shut up!" I exclaimed and Flash Stepped right beside the rolling body of Scott and brought my foot down on his right knee. A loud crack of bone snapping was heard throughout the whole place and his scream intensified. "Oh, please shut the hell up" I said in an annoyed tone and kicked his face… two teeth flew out of his mouth but he was successfully knocked out.

But before I could continue breaking his bones I moved my head aside and a blue monkey claw swiped past my head. Another claw was sent in my direction, but I just bent my body towards my left and allowed the claw to pass by my side… he is fighting like a Beast. Well, I like it…!!

A huge grin appeared on my face and I finally turned around to face Hank who was attacking me like a wild animal. I can see the rage in his eyes but in anger, he was losing his touch. I could see his attacks coming a mile away… I raised my left hand and stopped his right claw and slammed my foot down on his left foot. The monkey growled out in pain and I slammed my right fist into his collar bone.

Another bone snapping sound was heard but the monkey didn't back off and threw his right claw at me. I decreased the distance between us and elbowed him on the sternum. A mouthful of blood came out of his mouth and his head shot back in pain. I pulled up my right foot and brought it down on his left knee. With another bone snapping sound his knee was bent in a completely unnatural way. He once again screamed out in pain and I grabbed his left arm and snapped it in two near the elbow and shoulder.

With a kick to his head, he was knocked out too before he could scream out for his broken arm. I finally looked towards the crowd… all of them were looking at me with gaping mouths and wide eyes. Hmph…!! This must be their first time watching a fight like this.

"Throw them in the ocean" I said and walked away from the crowd… aha… the fight was really relaxing…
