Chereads / Fairy tail and the Abysmal slayer(remake) / Chapter 3 - [New Beginning]

Chapter 3 - [New Beginning]

with the chirping in the distance of a green forest, the nature birds calling out, creatures heard, many different sways of the wind, a figure lay bare on the ground, elegant looks, a snow white skin and black silky hair, he seemed at peace with himself, however something seemed different to him, he had a sensation of difference to him compared to the surrounding area, this was Haruta Snow

[Haruta]ergh...ugh...argh...my head, what a hangover.....

leaning up he opened his eyes lazily, a red crimson colour perched out from them, a gaze that gave off nobility and power, looking around he seemed confused, however more confusing was

[Haruta]why am i naked? and in a forest?

trying to remember he winced in pain, his head was throbbing, wondering what was going on he looked at his surroundings, it seems all he can remember was that he was in a place with a male before this however the surrounding area was a lot more different than the forest he was previously in, he than remembered the man talking about how he would be reborn again, after that he realised it actually happened, lying back down he wondered where he was.

[Haruta].....(sigh) this sucks....well no point in waiting here and dying of starvation....i feel like cinnamon doughnuts....

getting up he started stretching out his body, feeling overly fatigued he needed water and food, his body was aching, his senses felt enhanced he heard simply rustling in the distant, he felt the thick dense feeling in the air, weirdly enough it felt like he was absorbing something, after that he left the area, trying to find a river.

after walking for a while he felt a sense of blood lust in the air, squinting his eyes he turned around, looking around nothing was there that he could see, still feeling it he was confused, it felt as if getting closer, looking up he saw it a giant bird, seeing it in the distant however it seemed normal size, confused he wondered why a bird would suddenly attack him, however he was about to turn back till it got a bit closer growing in size.

[Haruta]wait a minute, what the hell is that.....you have got to be playing with me right?

seeing it in full size it was a giant green and blue bird with a wingspan of 4 metres and a long body of 2 metres, swooping down at him he quickly dodged to the right, still quite fatigued however he still felt his senses more faster and better than before.

[Haruta]what the hell is with this ugly bird

slamming head first into the floor Haruta figured it had a small intellect, before it could recover he decided to take the upper hand, quickly running at it he felt a surge over his body, it felt strangely powerful, feeling it he reverted it over his hand as a black mist with lightning coated his hand he went to hit the bird however as he did it felt like a massive wave of energy was poured from him, instantly killing it however as that happened he passed out right on the spot.

30 minutes later

[Haruta]ugh....ARGH!!!

feeling pain all over his body, he felt immense fatigue and pain all over like it was aching, smelling the scent of metallic and iron, it was blood, looking at where the scent was coming from he spotted a giant corpse, with blood coming out, feeling nauseous and sick he puked out nothing but saliva, coughing and trying to catch his composure, he looked at it again still feeling sick with the head in pieces and the body pouring with blood, however he felt hungry.

[Haruta]what....the fuck is this

getting up he went over and started poking it with a stick he picked up, after poking it, it seems its nerve system was still reacting, moving he got frightened moving back and falling back, getting back up he finally calmed down, with night time hitting and his hunger growing he looked at the bird swallowing a mass of saliva, afterwards he tried starting up a fire, failing to do so he regretted the fact that he neglected agriculture classes along with camping.

walking over to the bird he was about to start eating it raw however something sudden happened that changed his view, black mist coated the surrounding area of the bird as it started absorbing the bird, Haruta was confused, however after absorbing it all that was left were bones of it's structure, he had also felt no longer fatigued and no hunger along with thirst, confused he was grateful that he didn't have to eat it raw.

still he needed a source of shelter, walking some more he carried on still looking for a source of shelter as night was entering view, however to his luck he spotted what seemed to be a cottage, however it seemed old and quite run down, opening the door up he found it to be very dusty and old, with some parts like the corners were moulded and had moist, not caring he found the place to be still filled with some furniture, sleeping on a dusty old couch he was happy that he wasn't sleeping in the forest cold and dark.

Next morning

early in the morning it seems that Haruta had found himself some clothing, although the coat was quite large the black shirt and shorts were his size if he wore a left over belt with the shorts, feeling good that he isn't walking around naked however he still didn't have any foot wear, he left the cottage to find a source of water to wash up, after marking of the area where he is walking with a knife he found, he would know how to get back here if lost, marking trees of once in a while.

After walking for a while to his luck he heard a faint stream walking to it revealed a river, happy about his luck so far he went over drinking large sums of water, spotting a weird looking Gorilla? that was similarly thirsty he wondered what the hell it was, however as it stood up it's green skin, seeing it he felt like he has seen this thing before.

[Haruta]wait.....is that a...Vulcan...?

with the creature supposedly called a Vulcan turning it's head up facing him, the Vulcan seemed injured with scratch marks and cuts along it's body, seeing Haruta it quickly ran at him, pissed and annoyed that he can't even drink in peace however still surprised at seeing a Vulcan he quickly rushed back however once again he felt a surge of power in his body, confused he turned back, forming mist in his hand he looked at it for a few brief moments.

[Haruta]what is this (bzzt)

electric surging on his hand he quickly took a fighting stance, thinking about survival first he decided to quickly dash at the Vulcan, seeing this it lifted it's arms about to slam down on him, however too slow Haruta clenched his fist punching the Vulcan's chest, with the body dropping to the floor Haruta quickly jumped back before it fell on top of him, confused and wondering about it he examined the body.

[Haruta]wait but...if that's here than that would mean that im.....wait hold on let's take a look at it before assuming, no wait but i also have magic?

with dark mist coating his hand with purple electric he waved his hand around, and yup confirming it the electric was coming from his hand, amazed at it he started playing with it, however after a few minutes he became extremely tired, however once again the dark mist appeared once again absorbing the Vulcan leaving nothing but bones making his fatigue wash away.

[Haruta]what the hell....this is actually pretty insane isn't it?

amazed he needed to experiment some more searching around for more things to test his abilities on, he looked for any creature he could find, killing rabbits and weird insects along with a boar absorbing them and no longer feeling fatigued however the mental fatigue is still horrible, leaving the area he left back to the cottage, arriving he wanted to test his abilities again the next morning

2 years later

With the chirping off birds in the distant area, along with natures wind passing by, rustling in the bushes and a loud ruckus in the forest (boom) (boom)

[???]damn still up....(im running low on magic energy after fighting a ton of these things)

fighting what seemed to be a large black bird with a wingspan of 10 metres and a large 7 metre body, he had already fought with a ton before this is Haruta who is currently in quite a difficult situation with 3 large black birds still surrounding him he had already killed 5 before this.

2 of them were heavily injured and the last one was a way bigger one at 15 metre wingspan with a 12 metre long body, Haruta was looking at it feeling an overwhelmingly hard time fighting it, sighing he coated his body in magic quickly dashing at one them, seeing this the other small one blasted a substance of fire at him, quickly disappearing he appeared in front of it jumping up he punched the birds beak sending it's head jolting back wards.

[Haruta]finally 6 do-(wham)

getting whacked by the wing of the one he presumed dead he was slammed into a nearby dead tree, wincing in a bit of pain, all he did was let out another sigh, annoyed that he couldn't land a successful hit, however he realised the bird was bleeding on it's head, the other bird that was injured started flying at him, quickly getting out of the way he jumped to the side.

just dodging it the bird slammed right into the tree, coating his body in magic he quickly kicked the bird then coated his hand in a heavy amount of magic making sure this was a killing blow (bam)

[Haruta]okay 6 down, whose ne-

getting interrupted as the other bird grabbed hold of him inside of it's mouth flying him through branches and bushes, Haruta was glad that his magic was protecting him, however the pain he was feeling from the clutches of these jaws weren't feeling good.

[Haruta]let...the hell.....GO

mist covering his body the bird felt pain from this mist, letting go Haruta fell to the ground not high up so it didn't really hurt, away from the larger bird Haruta decided to end this quickly, making energy into a sharp substance he quickly dashed at it, making a caw like noise at him he wiped the blood from his mouth, his eyes shined a crimson red.

[Haruta]shut your annoying mouth and.....Die

disappearing he appeared in front of the bird sending a slice right at it's neck chopping it's head off instantly, he started absorbing it gaining a bit of energy and magic back, he quickly shook his body walking back to the mother of the rest or father either one

[Haruta]well than.....(pant) seems that (huff) it's just you and (huff) me

letting out a loud caw at him the bird stretched it's wings out flying at him coating him self in magic he ran at it

(tat) (tat) as footsteps were heard then (rustling) out came Haruta with black hair and clear red eyes, he still does not know why his eyes appeared this way but he didn't care, its been a whole 2 years since he's been here and in that time he has trained proficiently,able to hold his own now and take on at least the average C class wizard, with his magic.

he learnt he could eat any kind of lightning along with enhance his movement speed and body strength if he pulls the current of electricity around his body and his shadow magic combined allowed him to absorb energy directly from darkness along with going inside them and he's able to make weapons out of darkness too just like the energy blade he made to chop the birds head off.

he calls it Abysmal magic, holding the birds head bringing it to a town nearby, inside many looked at him suspiciously since he wears a hood over and mask so much as to not cause strife.

going to the towns job requester he handed the head over earning his pay of 10,000 jewels

[Haruta]thanks old man Naru

saying that he turned to leave but not before being called out to

[Naru]hey kid, you know you can stay here and....you don't have to go out there fighting those things right?

hearing this he turned back towards the old man

[Haruta]thanks old man Naru however we all have things we wish to do correct

with those words he left the village to go train in the forest.

[Haruta]197, 198, 199, 200 (huff) (huff)

doing push ups with weights of 5 kgs on each arm and 5 on his legs he got up after a minute, stretching his body out one last time as he pulled his electric current over his whole body he got in a stance low and perched like a jaguar hearing rustling about 20 metres away pouncing forward towards it slashing the bush with one foul swoop killing the creature instantly

hearing it roar in pain dropping to the floor he turned back around looking at it, the creature seemed like a magic boar albeit weak still contained traces of magic power

[Haruta](guess this thing isn't eatable, since it may have different magic from mine, what is it, wait this feels similar to those Stellanium crystals all over this kingdom, i never knew you could absorb magic essence right from it)

looking over to the hills he picked up the boars body leaving towards Altair town to hand in the magic Boar since the city put up a report for any magic creatures found, you are needed to hand in for a reward of 100,000 jewels.

After an hour of walking a hooded figure entered the town as he was stared at suspiciously carrying a rather large boar on his back and giving of a mysterious aura as he reached the town barracks [Guard]what is it this time Snow? another monster?

the guard with his feet on the table referred to the hooded figure as Snow pulling the hood down was Haruta

[Haruta]no i am here for my reward for capturing a magic beast, here take it

pushing his legs of the table he stood up walking over to him

[Guard]look kid, i know you don't like me saying this bu-

being cut of with a look straight in his eyes, seeing a glowing red from his eyes he let it go

[Haruta]look what you heard that night was only me being drunk, besides that you never bring it up, got it old man

sighing away, placing a cigarette in his mouth

[Guard]whatever you say kid, and cool some heat of, also here your pay

throwing him his jewels Haruta nodded placing the bag of jewels in his pocket, he left the barracks walking down the road leaving he left for the forest of Stella.

starting a fire he looked in the sky gazing at the bright starry sky reminiscing on the beauty of this world, reaching his hand in the sky and clenching it he flowed his electric current to his hand looking at it, throwing a lightning bolt in the air and catching it

[Haruta]still feels like a dream to actually be here (sigh) whatever, lets see what tomorrow has install for me

(boom) (zap)

[???]who the hell are you, leave now well you still got a chance

saying so was a big burly like man with a scar on his face and a rather large figure, wielding a giant battle axe surrounded by other men this was a bandit gang that Haruta decided to take on well coming across a family who was in a desperate situation with there daughter taken for ransom and there family in debt

[Haruta]shut your mouths and submit quietly

appearing, Haruta came from the shadows with electric surging around him pouring dark energy with electric around his hand and his glowing red eyes one of the bandits spoke

[Bandit1]its the one

in fear the leader looked over to the one who said this

[Leader]THE HELL DO YOU MEAN THE ONE?

looking back to there leader he said the words of fear across Stella kingdom

[Bandit2]the Abysmal God the rumoured wizard of dark lightning

saying those words most of the men already in fear started running the other way "RUN/ NO WAY IM NOT GONNA DIE HERE/ why....WHY?"

as they fled in disarray Haruta disappeared from his location only to reappear in front of two men slamming there heads to the floor knocking them unconscious, as the leader watched on shivering in fear he fell back on the floor looking up slowly he noticed all the other men knocked out as he couldn't spot Haruta he stood up quickly

[Leader]YOU BASTARD, WHO DO YOU THINK I AM ARGHHH

causing a battle roar his immense aura appeared with Haruta appearing again this time the man sensing him he slashed behind him quickly knocking Haruta a few feet back

[Lader]HAHA see not so invincible are you, watch how i kill you and deliver your head on a pike to that family along with there little girl

hearing this Haruta stood back up clicking his neck he flowed the electric current all through out his body, black mist with currents of lightning surging around his body

[Haruta]my head on a pike? that would be quite the intriguing if you could ever touch me (whoosh)

disappearing from his spot once again the man readied his axe till suddenly his legs felt like they were being grabbed as he looked down he spotted shadowy black hands latched to his legs pulling him down

[Leader]WHAT IS THIS, LET GO OF ME BASTARD

struggling to release himself a figure appeared behind him

[Haruta]if it weren't for my sincerity towards that family of wanting to put you in jail, i would've had your head by now (bzzt)

electrocuting him and knocking him unconscious, he picked him up, walking over to one of the men who was trying to act like he was unconscious

[Haruta]oi you suck at pretending your body is literally shivering, now tell me where is the girl NOW!?!"

his eyes shone a crimson red under the hood with an aura of blood lust the man spoke in fear

[Haruta]she is in Altair at the warehouse on raloon street the big warehouse, now please let me go

telling him the location Haruta knocked him unconscious calling a signal for the town guards as they rushed to the location, leaving he left for the town of Altair.
