Kainé watched the mayor's car disappear in the night while pondering on his previous thought.
It had been over a year since he lost his memories. He had been in mid-transit between dimensions when a catastrophic event shook the entire multiverse. This lead to his Magius Mechanicus getting seriously damaged while the traumatic experience struck him with amnesia. Kainé subsequently got dropped out into a different universe with having no way to leave. Ever since then Kainé was wandering on the Earth, helping whoever was in need while hoping to regain his memories.

 Kainé's thoughts suddenly were interrupted by a familiar voice.
"[I]Bastard, so you did take care of everyone.[/I]" It was Angelo, who had been sent flying a few minutes ago. His previously suave tuxedo was in tatters and his forehead had an obvious indentation mark on it.
"[I]The surprise is mine. I thought I really killed you with that one.[/I]" Kainé said while turning to face the mobster. 
"[I]Certamente. A human could've been crushed to pulp with that blow. Fortunately, just like you signore, I'm no ordinary man.[/I]"
"[I]A cyborg, huh.[/I]"
"[I]Indeed. Your extraordinary power is great but let's see how you handle THIS![/I]" Angelo exclaimed. Moments latter Kainé could feel tremorous noises, heavy metallic footsteps. They are giant robots. Multiple of them! And they're heading straight for Kainé's position.
They were also remarkably fast. It didn't even take a minute and Kainé could already see the silhouettes of several giant mechs.
"[I]They are the Savages of the Kuroinu Corps. Kuroinu is an Asian word for black hound. They will chase you down and spell doom on you! HAHAHAHA![/I]" Angelo gloated, certain of victory. Indeed, Kain could see 10 mechanical giants clad in black. All had their guns fixed on him. Yet he didn't feel anxious. Instead...
"[I]Is that all?[/I]" Kainé voiced his disappointment.
" [I]Did you expect me to transform into a gain fire-breathing monster or what?[/I]" [I]
"Actually, yes. It wouldn't be the first time, at least[/I]."Kainé said nonchalantly, rendering Angelo speechless for a while.
"[I]... Trying to be the funny guy, eh? You may be strong but you have no chance here. These little toys are faster than an Olympic athlete, tougher than a tank and have more firepower than an attack chopper. Consider yourself dead![/I]"
"[I]Sure, in a minute. But first tell me, did you also order these guys on the old man's tail?[/I]" Asked Kainé. He wanted to know if the kid and his grandpa were safe. If not, things could be getting complicated.
"[I]Hah! Worrying about the life of others instead of your own? How noble![/I]" Angelo told mockingly and then pulled out a large trigger.
"[I]A detonator![/I]" It didn't take much for Kainé to know what was going on.
"[I]Yes. You see, the Don never had the intention to leave that old fart alive. So we put a powerful micro-bomb into the kid's watch. When I push this button everything in the range of a city block is reduced to charcoal. HAHAHA![/I]" Gloated the mobster. 
At the same time all blood froze in Kainé's veins.
[I](Dammit...Talk about shit luck.)[/I]
Kainé helped the kid and his grandfather because he wanted to, but it didn't mean he was such a selfless person. While rescuing the boy Kainé noticed a particularly expensive-looking watch, perhaps a Rolex. An adventurer must forever struggle with living expenses. So Kainé used the confusion to stole the watch as a compensation. He was sure the kid would never miss it anyways. So whatever.
But apparently Kainé's greed almost caused him to kick the bucket.
Unknown to Angelo he could've easily killed his opponent with a push of a button.
"[I]What is it? Too shocked for words? Can't blame you here. All your efforts were for naught, wannabe hero! I push the trigger and in 3 seconds that old fuck is getting blown to kingdom come! You can't do anything here![/I]" As usual, Angelo misinterpreted Kainé's reaction, not realizing he was holding the adventurer hostage.
"[I]Wait! Three seconds!?[/I]" Kainé suddenly asked, relizing something crucial.
"Yes, there's a short timer before the bomb activates. But don't even try it! Not even you could reach them that fast. If you are lucky enough you'd see a bright flash as the old man will be reduced to nothing! Are you ready to face failure!?" With that Angelo activated the detonator's timer.
[I](Oh well, here goes my bonus.)[/I]
"[I]Three[/I]" Kainé immediately began to counting back aloud.
"[I]What are you...[/I]"
"[I]...Two[/I]"
"[I]Wait, why do...[/I]"
"[I]...One-[/I]" In that moment Kainé threw the watch straight towards Angelo.
"[I]No, that's impossib-[/I]" That was the time the confused Angelo finally realized what was going on.
But he was already too late.
Meanwhile Kainé clutched his medallion and erected a magic barrier.
In the next instant a giant explosion shook everything.
For long moments a bright flash covered Kainé's vision.
Once it cleared he saw a burning deep crater.
It was obvious that no traces of Angelo were left.
The only reason Kainé survived because he was well in the blast's perimeter.

"[I]Phew. Remind me to second-check the spoils before taking them again.[/I]" Kainé could finally relax a bit but his battle was far from over.
Angelo was dead but the enemy robots were still active.
The explosion momentarily knocked them out but it's only a matter of seconds before they start shooting at him.
(What to do, then? Summon Nox? Nah, forget it)
His Magius Mechanicus was still recuperating from the previous battle so the magic condensers were half empty.
Using its power here would be a waste.
So did he thought.
And this way of thinking immediately formed into action.
Not giving his enemy time to recover, Kainé boosted his power to its limits.
[B][[Impetum Fragor Maximum!!!]][/B] He exclaimed and in the same moment his body seemingly turned into a bolt of lightning.
Without any intention of holding back Kainé ran towards the enemy at full speed, enveloped in an aura of crackling bolts of lightning.
His target was the machine in the center.
Unlike the others it had a red emblem on its left shoulder, perhaps implying it being the commander.
It barely took a split second before Kainé's weapon met the steel of the enemy machine.
The impact unleashed a violent torrent of magical explosions, releasing a deafening noise.
But more importantly this attack had enough force to blast the mecha into tiny pieces, scattering its fragments everywhere.
That was obviously an overkill and Kainé knew it.
His body already felt the backlash after performing such a reckless maneuver.
Yet he felt that attack worth all the risk.
What he did was a demonstration. To show what he's truly capable of.
He just destroyed their leader in the quickest and most violent way possible.
Whatever sense of discipline and sense of security they had, that was all gone.
So Kainé didn't waste any time and in the midst of chaos he rushed for the next target.
He used the mech's height against itself, targeting the feet and the ground surrounding it.
The enemy quickly lost its footing and fell down.
Then Kainé jumped up on it at once and pushed his weapon into one of the soft spots, releasing a magic blast soon thereafter.
[I](Two down. Six more to go!)[/I]
Kainé spared no time and used the explosion to launch himself to the third opponent.
With his weapon charged up with magic energy he targeted the enemy's neck, unleashing a thunderous explosion on it.
(Three down!)
By this time the rest of the enemy managed to recover enough to see what was going on.
Multiple rifles shot their deadly shells on full auto.
Kainé immediately closed-in for the fourth opponent to use it as cover.
His weapon emitted a thick blue glow, filled with electricity.
That was a technique called Lightning Edge, a magic to outfit his blunt weapon with unparalleled sharpness. 
With two rapid cuts Kainé disconnected the mech's knees and then did the same with neck and arm joints.
Then Kainé clutched his medallion, summoning a shadow arm larger than the mech itself.
[B][[Manus Noctis Fundibulae!]][/B] He shouted, throwing the crippled mech at its dumbfounded comrades.
The makeshift projectile flew at high speed hitting the enemy mech with enough force to make that bump into its mate behind.
He temporally immobilized two mechs, leaving only two to oppose him.
[B][[Arma Mobilis]][/B] Kainé exclaimed, covering him in a dark shroud as he kept dashing towards the enemy.
Several shells impacted against the shield but to no effect. Even if it wasn't his best you'd require much more than this to break through Kainé's protection.
Seeing that their rifles were useless, the two mechs tried a hasty retreat but it was no use.
Kainé was undoubtedly faster.
Once he got beneath the pair Kainé pierced his weapon to the ground.
[B][[Ignis Magnum!!]][/B] Kainé's medallion glowed red as he shouted this.
A deep orange flame passed through the weapon, transferred directly to the ground.
Kainé quickly jumped back, just in time to see the ground turning into a pond of lava.
Losing their ground the two mechs fell straight into it, soon meeting their doom.
Kainé exhaled a bit, relieving the accumulated stress before going for the last surviving pair.
They just barely managed to stand up when one of them noticed a large shadow overhead.
It was a giant fist formed of Kainé's magic. It was several times the size of both mechs.
The pilot tried to warn his comrade but it was already too late.
[B][[Pugnum Noctis Rex!!!]][/B] Kainé exclaimed, crashing the fist down.
A shockwave accompanied with large tremors as the fist made a fine crater on the ground before disappearing to nothingness, leaving the dented wreckage of the last two mechs.
Considering the situation the machines were relatively intact.
But the force of the impact was more than enough to instantly kill the pilots within.
That was it.
Under the span of 3 minutes Kainé managed to defeat all 8 machines of the Kuroinu Corps.
"[I]Ugh...[/I]" Suddenly struck with fatigue, Kainé chooses to lie down a little.
He was acting more reckless than usual.
