Shadow Lord
A middle-aged man who has a well-built body, with a gun in his hand was dragging a girl by holding her hair, and a young man was holding his leg but he seemed like a three-year child dragged by adults, it was proof that the middle-aged man's stats were already beyond the human level.
"ugh... Leave me alone... You bastard, leave me,... Sob sob"
"Leader I will do anything please let her go, I beg you, leader..... Please let her go"
"You scum, you thought you could hide her from me, haha"
I don't think you want me to explain what's going on here, right?
A group of survivors was watching the scene unfold, some were looking at them with pity, some with anger, some with rage but not a single one of them came forward to help them.
"Someone please help me. Please help my sister I will do anything for you, please... Please.."
The young man screamed at them asking for help.
But not a single person came forward, they know better not to mess with the person with a rare class if they dear their life.
" Leave me, you bastard... "
" You moron leave her, I will kill you... "
The screams of a sibling were resounding in the surrounding, but not a single soul was stepping forward to save them.
This was reality,
This was the bitter reality,
But, all hope was not lost yet,
A robbed man walked forward laughing,
" Keke...you said you wanted help right?"
***
"Hey, do you have a death wish"
The middle-aged man roared at the robed figure.
But, he just ignored him and continued his walk towards the young man.
"What's your name kid?"
"Huh?"
"Are you deaf, I asked what is your name?"
"Ah...! my name is Radheya"
"Hmmm...Radheya?"
the middle-aged man with his fellows came forward charging towards him to which he just scoffed and said,
"Kapali, take care of them but don't kill anyone"
"As you wish my lord"
A group of robbed men came forward and removed their robes covering their heads revealing the white bone skull,
gasp.
"Everyone took a breath t the surprise of the skeletons following his order"
as soon as they took action all the things we're pushed against the ground, and with the power of Kapali, the middle-aged man crumble without even a resistance.
"What was your name again? Radh...something, leave it, then I helped you save your sister right?"
"Yes"
"Then what will you give me?"
"Huh?"
"Don't tell me you don't have anything and plan to follow me making me carry you with your sister"
"..."
"Gosh, I changed my mind, Kapali, set him free"
He threw his mercicode dagger in front of the young man and said,
"Fight that fat-ass, if you can kill him, I will consider the matter settled"
"..."
the young man hesitated but then upon seeing his sisters face he remembered once again,
'If I want to protect something, I have to be strong enough, if I want to protect something I must be prepared to kill someone too, this man I don't know who it is, but, I will be always thankful for your help'
He took the dagger from the ground and stood in front of the fatass.
"Ah...you bitch it's all because of you, I will kill you right now"
the middle-aged man roared as he charged forward, the young man stood there silently seemed to be in a daze, when suddenly pitch-black darkness covered him, after some time the darkness was gone and with that the man also disappeared, but what bizarre was that there was a red mark on the neck of a fatass,
the robbed man got up with a smirk as he said,
"You are now grown-up kid"
the surrounding people were confused by the things unfolding and were shocked when the neck of their leader hit the ground.
let's see what happened from the young man's perspective,
POV Radheya,
'...this man I don't know who it is, but, I will be always thankful for your help'
a sudden flash occurred in front of him
[You have achieved enlightenment on your own]
[As a result of your enlightenment, all your stats are increased by 10]
[As a reward for reaching first enlightenment, you are rewarded with class mutation ]
[Your class Shadow Assasin(normal) has mutated to Shadow lord(Unique)(growth)]
[Your skill 'Shadow drift' has evolved into 'Shadow movement(s)]
[You have acquired a new skill 'Throat slice']
[You have acquired a new skill 'Shadow teleport']
[You have acquired a new skill 'Shadow blade']
He reached new enlightenment with the help of that robed man,
'Maybe he was hoping for me to be enlightened'
'hmmm...I can no longer hesitate if I want to protect someone I have to kill someone too'
He looked at the middle-aged man and used his new skill, Shadow teleport.
he instantly appeared behind the old man and sliced his throat using the skill and USD the shadow movement skill to travel to nearby shadow hiding there, it was the perfect execution of techniques, he seemed like a person born to be an assassin,
"You are now grown-up kid"
The robbed figure said as he turned around to leave.

POV shiva
'What the hell was that, if it wasn't for my high stats, I wouldn't even be able to catch a glimpse of him, He is dangerous, I have to leave this place now, who knows what he will do to me for making him fight that fatass'
He turned around to quickly leave the place,
"Master!"
said the young boy,
'Master...?'
"Hmm..."
even with his confusion, he didn't show it in his face but simply turned around.
"I have gained enlightenment with your teachings, how can I ever repay this to you"
'What enlightenment...?and when the hell did I teach you anything'
"You don't need to do anything just live your life rightfully"
'Just leave me alone'
"Master, how can I do that, you have saved me and my sister, even helped me to get enlightenment"
"I Radheya, swear upon my name that I will be your shadow until the moment I die"
" Gosh do you have a middle-grade syndrome or what? just go and live well with your sister"
"That won't do master"
He was again frustrated and looked at the young girl but when he looked at the young girl, she was playing with the skeletons hanging around their neck and even Kapali was with them cheering her,
he sighed...
"Sigh...do whatever you want"
he turned around walking towards the middle of the camp,
All the people in the camp were dumbfounded by the scene of a young youth following behind the young man right behind him was the talking skeleton and a group of white bones carrying a laughing Girl, it was a...bizarre sight, amidst all this a deep sigh resounded,
"Sigh...how did it come to this....."
