Chereads / The Legacy of The Night / Chapter 7 - Underestimated

Chapter 7 - Underestimated

Hinata and Seishi walked into the nearby village and were met with suspicious glares, at this point Hinata and Seishi had changed out of their armors, feeling that it drew too much attention, they now had on casual clothes, Hinata wore black trousers with combat boots, shades, a black and red belt, A black shirt with a black and red jacket that reached down to his knees, with a hood and a half mask, covering his mouth and nose and fingerless gloves, Seishi had on white tights, a green and blouse and a white jacket with a hood that stopped at her midsection, a half mask covering her nose and mouth and gloves, as they walked they were stopped by a group of men, one of which grabbed Seishi.

"you're going to give us everything you own and we're gonna take your girl and use her"

Hinata ignored them and stared coldly into the eyes of the man who spoke.

"Are you deaf or stupid?" the man asked and pressed the dagger to Seishi's throat

"why are you entertaining this? hurry up and knock him out" Hinata said

Seishi smirked and swept the man's legs, she grabbed his arm behind his back and dislocated it

"What...The...Fuck?" the man asked as he lunged at Hinata with his dagger, Hinata jumped up and kicked the man in the face, he grabbed the hand that help the dagger and snapped the man's wrist

"Leave before we kill you" a voice rang out from behind the group, a woman walked out wearing black leather tights and a purple crop top with black boots

"who do you kids think you are messing with my men?" The woman had bright violet eyes and smirked "do you know what these eyes mean"

"Kallanti, second most powerful type" Hinata explained "I should know, we're Kallanti too"

The woman was shocked but kept up her arrogant attitude "then I suggest you run before i rip you apart"

"you see my Jitani's eyes? they're green but she's as strong as any violet"

"And I'm strong enough to kill other Violets" She laughed

"what about me?" Hinata smirked

"you're a violet?" she asked shocked

Hinata scoffed as he heard Seishi shout "Hinata, hurry up and show her already"

"show me what?" she asked suspiciously

Hinata took off his shades and showed his piercing and bright red eyes

"Y-Y-You're a lethal?!?!" She shouted and a look of terror ran through her body, attracting to the attention of the nearby villagers

"What's a lethal?"

"I'm guessing it's the most powerful Kallanti"

"does that mean she's scared of him?"

"I hope so"

The woman wasted no time and throw a massive ball of fire at Hinata, The latter in turn raised a massive wall of lava, an Imposing, terrifying and impressive display of power, he then hardened it into obsidian and turned them into thousands of tiny obsidian blades and aimed all at the woman, sending them flying at max speed, the woman was able to dodge most but a few of them cut her severely, she was sent back a couple of meters on her knees and Hinata walked calmly up to her, she looked up at him and bowed her head as she spoke

'I'm sorry sir, I never should have tried to compare to your power, please make my death quick, I don't want to suffer"

This display of total submission on her part was enough to shock everyone in the village who knew her as the biggest bad they had ever met, unrivaled in power, ruling everyone with her gang of thugs.

Hinata looked at her and simply said: "You had no idea what my power was like, I can not blame you for your arrogance, I won't kill you but tell me, do you remember now what the Kallanti code is?"

"yes, Lethals such as yourself are basically royalty because of your power" she paused for a second "The Kallanti code," she said loudly "All bow in the presence of lethal," and she bowed her head

"from now on, you serve us" He extended his hand to her and lifted her up, for the first time he truly saw her, she had Bright Violet yes, Pitch black hair and an amazing body with clightly tanned skin comparible to caramel, as they touched Hinata could feel her energy and she looked over at Seishi "you're his Jitani?" she asked

"yeah, why?" Seishi asked

The woman held up her wrist "My Jitani Marking glowed when he touched me"

Seishi was speechless, she didn't know how to respond

"Lethal can have more than one Jitani, my mother warned me about that, after one year the lethal must choose his preferred partner and the one he doesn't choose will be reset and a new Jitani bond will form one so strong it pulls them to their new Jitani," Seishi said.

"This is gonna be awkward, I guess you're coming with us then," Seishi said

"My name is Lily, Lily Jutari" she said as she smiled and looked at Hinata "you feel it too right? she's telling the truth"

"Hinata Bloodrose" he responded

"she's Kiwaseishi Kallinariast" he nodded to Seishi and smiled

"yes I feel it, a way too strong connection between us," he said "I'm finding it hard to be cold towards you"

"wait, THE Hinata Bloodrose?" she asked

He simply nodded, now accustomed to this reaction from people

The three of them sat in a local bar chatting and getting to know each other, Seishi felt a bit more relieved because now if Hinata didn't want to be hers ti meant that it was never meant to be, that she had another soul mate out there somewhere, she felt less pressure but was a bit jealous to see Hinata was more comfortable with this common criminal than he was with her but she couldn't blame him, their chemistry wasn't very good, to begin with.

"we should get going Hinata said as the two girls were chatting and drinking"

"There won't be anyone else right Seishi?"

"no Lethals can have two Jitani my mother said but she was very specific about two"
