Chapter 24 - Chapter 23: Ambush (2)

The young lord once again attacked him, and he immediately dodge his attacks, but compared to before the young lord's attacks were fiercer, making it harder and harder for him. The young lord's fan is covered with frames and even though he successfully dodged his attack, Samael still felt like his skin was being burned. He knows that the situation is getting more and more dangerous and if they can't get out of this place fast, things will come to the worst.

Just as Samael is thinking a way out, the second brother kicked the blond man sending him flying out of the window. The second brother then called their attention as he cut the wooden door with his sword, but as Samael was about to run away the young lord stopped him from his tracks.

" Samael hurry up!" One of his brothers called him.

Samael looked at the smiling young lord before him. He knows he couldn't get away without defeating this man. Samael then sighed in his mind and looked at his brother.

" Go on! I'll catch up to you guys, I'll hold this guy down for a while!" Samael said as he looked at the young lord before him.

The brother looked at Samael and seeing the situation he knew he couldn't do anything about it." Be safe brother, be sure to catch up" the bandit brother said.

" Hold me down huh. That's quite a big world you have there, now I'm curious if you have the ability to do so!" The young lord said and attacked Samael again as he tried to pierce his fan into him. Samael then dodge his attack but the young lord slowly moves faster and faster as the time fast making it harder and harder for Samael to completely avoid his blade.

" Why don't you use that Magic weapon of yours, or are you looking down on me?" The young lord said as he tried to cut Samael. Seeing that he wouldn't be able to dodge the attack any longer, Samael chose to draw out his sword to defend.

Seeing that the young lord has no plans of letting him go, Samael knows he needs to fight back. He looked at the young lord and jumped towards him, cutting him diagonally.

Surprised by his sudden aggressiveness, the young lord was unable to react properly, but having an incredible flexibility and speed, he managed to barely dodged Samael's attack. Samael continues to attack the young lord making his speed faster and faster and his attack fiercer and more precise.

Seeing this the young lord couldn't help but admire Samael's talent, for a bandit with no actual teaching from the knights or professors, the young bandit's sword style is elegant yet strong and lethal. He wonders if this young man was born as a knight rather than a bandit just how strong would he be with the proper guidance from an actual knight? Truly it was regretful.

Seeing that his opponent isn't focused enough Samael took this opportunity to attack his openings, cutting then young lord's chest and successfully slashing his garment and his skin, making the young lord's blood drip to the ground. Hearing the footsteps running to their way, he knew that reinforcements were coming. Samael then immediately runs to the nearest window cutting it and jumping from it. Even though Samael jumped from the third floor he successfully landed on the ground and having no time to waste he immediately ran far away from this place.

Samael continued to run out of the town towards their meeting place where the second brother told them to go if anything unexpected happened. As he was running Samael towards the gate he noticed the increase of soldiers around, some were chasing him while others might be planning on surrounding him, or perhaps they plan on cornering him, nonetheless nothing good will come out of it.

As Samael expected after some time he found himself in the middle of the soldiers who's pointing their blades at him. He saw the perfectly fine young lord smiling with his fan covering the lower half of his face. Though his cloth is slashed, his chest doesn't even have any scar on it much less a lethal wound. Beside the young lord is the blond haired man that was previously fighting the second brother.

Samael looked around trying to find a way out, but before he could properly look around the blond man immediately drew his blade and jumped towards him. Seeing that he couldn't dodge the enemy's attack Samael drew out his own sword and as the two blades crashed to each other the metallic sound of both metals sounded to the place.

Unlike the young lord's attack and elegant, and noble fighting style; the fighting style of the man before him is heavy, fierce, and very blows are filled with killing intent. One mistake he would make would undoubtedly lead to his demise.

As the man gives blows after blows, his attacks are getting fiercer and fiercer. Looking at the enemy before him, Samael knows that this guy is enjoying himself. Suddenly the sword glows a shade of bluish hue electricity suddenly appears of the sword electrifying Samael. He felt as the numbing pain traveled from his hands, to his arm, and all over his body. He felt like his whole body was being burnt to a crisp. If the young lord's fan felt like being burned without being touched, this one felt like he's being torch alive. Still even with all of the pain he's feeling Samael knew that he mustn't fall down cause the moment he did, he would certainly die.

As the smoke appeared from Samael's body his knees wanted to give out, but Samael stood in his place looking at the blond man before his. Seeing this the young lord and the young man couldn't help but be impressed by the young bandit's spirit.

" It's time for you to surrender, little kitten." The young lord said smiling at Samael. Looking around Samael knew there's no way he would be able to escape in one piece with this blond man and this young lord being here. One of them alone is hard to deal with but being with them together like this gives almost no chance of escape.

" Give it up little kitten you wouldn't be able to escape this place." the young lord said looking at the young bandit before him.

Suddenly Samael smiled, he then looked at the young lord and smirked saying: " Unfortunately, I am not a kitten." With that said consecutive explosions erupted from all over the town making the soldiers' lose their attention. Samael took this opportunity to escape.

Seeing the young bandit wanting to escape the young lord shouted: " Don't let him escape! " He said snapping, trying to get the soldier's attention. The blond young man immediately goes towards Samael trying to stop him and before his blade clashes a round object was thrown in his direction. Seeing this the blond man immediately cuts it in half but even if the bomb still exploded before him.

The young lord sighed as he saw their supposed captive to be able to escape.

" Shall we chase him?" One of the soldiers asked.

" No, it's fine. It's all going according to that man's plan anyway. I'm sure we'll be able to meet again sooner or later, my little kitten." The young lord said smiling as he closed the fan on his hand.
