's Point Of View So, this is what the sky looks like now? I forgot how the moonlight felt upon my skin. It's been so long. This joy was taken from me for so long, wasn't it? All because of them... Thinking they were so superior.... I need to save everyone else. Then we can make them suffer for what they've done. /CRASH! /" Hmhmmhhmm" I can't help but laugh. To think they had a guard dog still. In this age even. I think it's been nearly 60, 000 years and yet... So many things stay the same.
They rise no matter how I show how out of their league I am. Where does that irritating determination come from? Is it similar to ours? No... It can't be. He can't hate others like us. Like Me. Now that I look around, he wanted to save those children badly... Hm? A Human protecting Demons? Is that what he views as his goal? I can't help but giggle. All of the killing, taking, loss... And now he protects them? I look at him. He's healing himself. Ah, right! I squeezed his hand a little. To think that crushed it.
I can't even use an 8th of my power because of this body... Mortals are so fragile. Yet they chose to make them their Champions? I wonder if I can find something better for mine?" Oh?" This body, right... Poor, poor Franz. You thought you weren't just mine to use. Unfortunately, this body is mine now. Be good and stay chained, you'll meet your whor-... Wife soon. But I'm allowed to have some fun first, right? I've been bound for so long and now I can finally stretch some newly acquired legs. What to do first?
Shift. /BANG! / My new body juts forward... It seems he want's my attention. A bolt is quite an ignorant method though, is it not? How impudent that he believes he's deserving of My attention. I should make him suffer before I kill him, shouldn't I? They're always so willing to sacrifice their lives for that irritating protective instinct that they have, don't they? Why not help him along the way? Though... Finding a way to bring despair to him before the end?
That could make for some entertainment after all of this time. Hm? That's right, he used that flame of his to create a diversion for them to escape. He positioned himself so Franz wouldn't see the girls and children escape. Ah, these memories are useful. The white haired and Green haired ones are his wives. However... They're tainted, that green one is quite dangerous... Perhaps I should kill her quickly? The white haired one. His mana pulses and resonates inside her... I can't come into contact with them yet...
I'm not ready... They're both being protected by the green one's favors... Interesting. I can't actually stay in proximity near the green one for long because of them... I'm too weak for now. But, Franz, you continue to be useful even while I have you in bondage. Maybe I'll bequeath your reward faster than you thought? Ah, he seems to also value the citizens here as well. He offered those desserts to save that party for the enjoyment of the masses... Perfect!
I can't help but smile as I finally have an entertaining plan in store for him. I wonder what his face will look like when I have all of the girl's still beating hearts in My hands? What about when I have all of those worthless insects' blood on my hands? Once it goes right, killing the green and white haired ones will be the finishing touch before I kill him. Yes, it'll be perfect. But first, I need a reason for him to stay and watch? Ah! They will do nicely.
I can even control Franz better as well if she's gone too... I can even make some of them into My servants. Dear me, I really am glad to be free of my chains, I can't stop smiling..... John Ericsson's Point Of View He just ate it? My Holy Bolt? Without protection of any kind? I need to hit him with something else." Little One! You need to run! Now! He's dangerous!"" John, we need to go!" John, you need to leave!"" John! Get out! Now!" Julia, Scarlet, Lily and Gil all shout in my mind for me to run." I can't!
Sarah, Anna and everyone else are still here! They just got out of the rubble! I need to get them to safety!"" You need to move now then! Open a Portal with Paula's ability and get away as fast as possible!" Lily screams at me as I stand up. My body is somewhat okay, I used Holy Heal, that brought me down to around half of my mana left. It should be enough to get me to 2 towns over if I push it me passing out when we pass through the Portal. I get up and catch my balance, now to get to the gir- /Woosh! /" Ah!?"
Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings." Hello." That same smile appeared in front of me. /THOOM! / PRESSURE! SWING! A burst of wind hits me after he appears in front of me. I look up to him since he's slightly taller than I am. I swing Scarlet at his neck with my left hand. STOP! /Whomp! / He stopped my swing again." Thoom! / Where'd he go!?" I'd rather you didn't try cutting my head off, little paladin." / BONK! CRACK! / PAIN!" AHHHH!"
I turn my head to see he was behind me. With his index and middle finger, he thrust them into my left forearm, he broke through the armor and broke my forearm. GRIP! CHOKE!" Quiet down." He grabs me by my neck. SHIFT! PAIN! /THOOM! /" Hng!" He teleported with me... No, that sound. He's just running that fast. I look in front of me, he brought me to the girls. Sarah and Anna were still asleep, Wendy, Ellie and Tana began to cry as they saw us. Princess Alice, Gasha and Lady Cindy were stunned to see us.
I need to figure something out quick... Before I pass out from the pain or suffocation....... Alice Mars's Point Of View We were able to get out of the rubble, I was able to work with Cindy, Ellie and Wendy to protect everyone when that explosion of darkness happened. Once I could look around, I saw a handsome tall man standing where Baron Fracks had stood. Marquess Matthew was also climbing out of the rubble. Stone and pieces of furniture from the mansion were falling all around us." Are you all okay!?"
I called to everyone to see how they were. I got nods from everyone, except for Sarah and Anna, they were still unconscious." Cindy, Ellie, Wendy, Gasha, Tana, everything's going to be okay, we just need to get out of here for now, like Matthew wanted. We just need to get to the doo-" I look to see where the doorway that Sarah, Anna and Matthew had come from, but the doorway was gone. In fact, looking around, the walls were gone, the only thing that was still standing was the old tree that was part of the room."
Okay, never mind, we just need to get out of this area, so we don't distract Matthe-" /THOOM! /"!" What was that sound? I look around to see what it was." AHHHH!" I hear a man scream. I look to Matthew and see that man was behind him. /WOOSH! THOOM! / A blast of wind hits us all and without even blinking, the man carried Matthew in front of us, his left arm was mangled, like he had a broken bone. The man was carrying him by his neck.
His red eyes looked down on us, the younger girls started to cry at the sight of Matthew. The man began to talk." Hello there, I'll be taking a few of you with me to sacri-"" DIVINE FIST!" / SNAP! THUD! / The man tried to speak, and Matthew punched him as hard as he could in his face. The man didn't like that." I never understood why you lot never understood when to give up. Stop now, before I punish you."" Pu! Fuck you!" Matthew spit on the man's face and began to wind back for another punch.
The man wasn't going to let him do that." CRASH! /" AH!" The man slammed Matthew into the floor, his body sank into the stone floor, blood shot out of Matthew's mouth." Settle down, you're only alive because I allow you to be, trash." The man's voice was filled with disgust. He raised his eyes towards us again, they were full of hate." Now then, I'll be taking the young ones now, as well as.... Cindy, yes, that's your name." He cocked his head to his right side as he thought of Cindy's name.
Wendy, Ellie and Tana were already awash with tears after they saw what Matthew looked like. But now that the man's words had registered for them, they began to cry harder." Now then, I do hope you don't make this hard on yourselves." CHILL! / Crack! Snap! Rip! / A smile that raised the hairs on the back of my neck accompanied his words. I can't let him take them. I don't have my sword with me, but I can still fight. The man started to conjure more vines. I need to attack him!
"..."
"!" I was about to launch an attack but then I saw Matthew's eyes, he wants me to wait? Why!? Those vines are going to grab the girls! Wait! He's aiming his hand." Holy Flame!" / WOOSH! / All of a sudden, a golden flame flew into the vines that were approaching us." AH!" The man finally had a pained expression on his face. I took this moment to help. Jump! KICK! /BAM! / TURN! A kick to his face pushed him back, I turned to the girls and began to scream at them." Go! Quickly! Run!" GRIP!
I felt a hand grip my ankle as a deep voice spoke to me as the vines that were on fire fell to the floor to burn." I'd rather they didn't. What a clever little plan, teamwork can be a great thing. It's truly a shame you're both kicking above your station." LIFT! SLAM! PAIN! /CRASH! /" AH!" I joined Matthew by being slammed on the ground." ALICE!" He called my name again. But the pain was too much to truly be happy about it." Silence, dog. I was being merciful before.
I knew I needed to watch for you trying to set me on fire, unfortunate for you, I'm not as idiotic as Franz, I have countermeasures! Now I see you need punishment! I'll need to take your arms from you. Permanently! So, you learn!" / Woosh! / A black dagger appeared in the man's hand and had begun to swing down onto Matthew's arm. I could only scream." MATTHEW!" /SLASH! STAB! / With my scream, I closed my eyes." What!?" With the man's voice full of surprise, I opened them.
Purple and green mana had begun to whirl around the area, I looked at the source and saw 2 Demons standing in front of the man. They were in simple white shirts with dark-purple and dark-green pants made of thick fabric, along with well-made, dark-brown leather boots that seemed to all be made with the aim to keep them warm now that we were in the winter months. They had their armor over top of their shirts and pants.
And while their clothes were covered in dirt, I could see that they were uninjured compared to what their clothes would suggest their conditions were. The big giveaway was their mana, it had hints of the anger and hatred that was festering in their hearts and minds in this moment and no doubt, what has been building up slowly in them even before we made the trip here to Zana.
So strong were their emotions, that their hair began to take on the appearance of a den of snakes as they rose and fell with the strong pulsations of their mana. They had both stabbed the man, one with a dark-purple glowing halberd and the other with a glowing bright-green dagger. Sarah and Anna had woken up.
With their eyes that seemed to lack any hint of kindness in them, firmly locked onto Matthew, who was currently being restrained by our enemy, the first words out of their mouths were said in unison, along with killing intent dripping so thick from their bodies, I could almost swear I saw mountains of corpses behind them." YOU WILL PAY!"
