Chapter 8 - 7 - Ritual Disruption 2

[ With Giyu ]

"I've seen enough"

He said as he appeared in the middle of the ritual. His sudden action alerted everyone present in the room.

"Who-Who are you?!" Kalawarner asked with clear tiredness and panic in her voice.

" I'm here to help " he whispered only loud enough for her to hear.

"Who are you!!" Axaeel's voice boomed the room. " tsk, What are you all waiting for? Attack! "

As he said that all the strays snapped out of their confusion and took out their weapons.

Giyu surveyed around him as he began to take count the numbers of his enemies.

' One...Two...Three... a total of Seven strays. 5 males and 2 females.' He thought

" It's you? " one of them spoke. It was the same one who invited him earlier to join the sermons.

"Hn" was all that he replied with as he smirked. Though to others it looked like a smirk filled with scorn and mockery.

" Grr, don't you mock me!" the priest yelled out as he rushed towards him with a sword.

Giyu merely watched as the man was moving so slow in his perpective. He sidestepped and in a quick motion swung his sword quickly beheading the stray priest.

He watched as the body fall and the blood splurt out in all directions. Though not a single drop even hit him as they all passed through him.

"G-get him!" The others spoke as the other men rushed him all together while the women started to shoot at him.

Giyu stood motionless as all four remaining males slashed their sworde at him at the same time.

"Heh, we got him" one smirked

"Mmm, let me keep the body he looks kind of cute" one of the two women spoke

But in the next second they were all baffled as all their attacks fazed right through him.

Giyu looked back at them before he finally spoke to them.

" Its my turn now" he said as he took in a deep breath.

" Mizu no Kokyu... San no Kata : Ryuryu Mai "

(Breath of water... 3rd form : Flowing Dance)

{a/n: I will put the japanese names of attacks I deem worthy... that or if I forgot their japanese name }

Giyu whispered in an soft tone. But even so it resonated in the ears of all that were in the room.

In the next second he slashed all the while pivoting his foot before slashing again, then pivoting his foot again. Every time he slashed out he repeated, and with every pivot he dissapeared and reappeared.

'Beautiful' was all Kalawarner could describe it.

Giyu moved so graceful and with the way he moved it gave of the feeling that he was dancing.

Kalawarner could have sworn that she saw the faint illusions of flowing water. But her thoughts were interupted with screaming.

"Kyaa" both of the women yelled out as in the next second the four men were down motionless on the floor.

They started to panic as they both started shooting at Giyu not even bothering with aim.

All Giyu did was walk towards them slowly as their aim was so terrible that they all mostly missed him. Even those that hit him only passed through him leaving no sign of injury.

"Hey, Watch where you're aiming! I'm almost done with the ritual! " from behind Giyu, Axaeel's voice sounded off.

Hearing their boss's shout made the two women freeze for a second, before continuing to shoot as they were afraid of death.

But that second of hesitation was enough for Giyu. They couldn't even pull the trigger before both their necks had a cut.

' Now the only one left is him ' Giyu thought as he stared at the corpses of the two women before turning his head to look at Axaeel.

" It's over now. Surrender if you want to keep your life " he said to Axaeel.

"Hahahahaha! Jokes on you the ritual is complete." He said with an evil grin.

"Now die!" He said as he lunged towards Giyu as he formed a spear of light.

Giyu merely broke the spear made out of light with a slash but saw Axaeel smirk.

"Now taste the power of my new sacred gear! Armed Creation!" Axaeel yelled out as a a sword and spear out of steel emitting light energy formed on his hands aimed at Giyu.

" What?" Axaeel yelled out in surprise as his attacks passed through Giyu. Earlier he was too occupied in the ritual to focus on Giyu's battle.

It was too late for him to manuever as Giyu sent a kick to his chest sending him flying back. He crashed onto the wall as it caved in with a spider web like cracks formed around him.

Giyu seeing that Axaeel probably couldn't get up after his kick went towards the boy still tied up.

"It's over, he's alreader a goner" Kalawarner said in a soft whisper.

Giyu didn't answer her as he freed the boy from the shakles holding him. Then he placed a hand on the boy's stomach. The boy's eyes opened slightly before asking in a tired voice "...who are... you mister...? "

"Shhh... don't talk. You'll be just fine" Giyu said. He then used the 'Creation of all things' to stabalise him.

Sacred Gears are a part of the soul as they are merged with humans when they are born. Forcefully taking them will kill them because it will literally rip a part of their soul. Once it's done they can't be save unless they are ressurected by some artifacts like the devil's evil pieces or angel's brave saint cards.

But it was possible for Giyu to do it without those artifacts. Using his ' Creation of all things" he took a sample of what was left of the boy's soul before using his jutsu to fix and fill in what was lost. Restoring the boy's soul in the process.

Seeing as it worked he opened the eyelids of the boy and cast a genjutsu on him. Making the boy forget the events of what happened and only remembering falling asleep with the other kids.

After that he turned his Gaze towards Axaeel. He got up and wqlked towards him.

" Wait! Please don't kill him " Kalawarner's voice sounded off stopping him in his tracks.

But before he could consider it Axaeel's voice also sounded off.

" Stop Kala " He said as he slowly leaned on the crack filled walls. He turned his sights on Giyu and talked to him as he coughed up blood " *Cough* *Cough* To think I harmed my only blood relative I still consider as family, How low I've fallen"

" Please kill me " he asked

" Wh-What but why?" Kalawarner said as horror filled her eyes

" I can no longer *cough* *cough* forgive myself. I've lost sight of everything importantt to me. Sorry Kala for being selfish but I'm scared that if I live from this that I would hurt you more" he said before turning his gaze back to Giyu.

" Please *cough* I beg *cough* of you. Please kill me, I don't want to live knowing I'll hurt those dear to me. " he pleaded

Giyu stared at the broken man before closing his eyes. He sighed before opening them back his red glowing eye replaced with a bluish-black color. " Very well then "

" Thank you. And please spare my sister, she's never done anything wrong. Even choosing to save a stranger" He asked sincerely

" I know, from the start I wasn't going to harm her." Giyu said

Hearing Giyu's words He smiled before turning back to hus sister. " Sorry Kala, I'm going to be leaving first. I'll meet up with our mother and tell her all of our adventures then we'll be watching over you. But don't be so quick to join us"

Hearing his words Kalawarner couldn't help but tear up.

" I'll be going now " he said

" It'll be over soon. " Giyu said as he took a deep breath and slashed out " Mizu no kokyu... Go no Kata : Kanten no jiu " He used the form with the least pain, the strike of kindness.

(translation is Breath of water... Fifth form : Blessed rain after drought)

" Good Luck " Kalawarner whispered softly tears running her face but through all that she had a smile adorned on her face as she saw the smile her brother gave her before his death.

A smile she hadn't seen since they were kid when her mother was still alive.

' You are free now brother, tell mother I lover her' she thought

Giyu looked at the corpse before he got down and used the Human Path to extract the sacred gear out of Axaeel's body. He looked back towards the sleeping boy with a complicated expression.

' I'm taking your sacred gear. It'll only do you more harm than good' thought Giyu. "~sigh"

With a sigh he made his way toward the blue haired beauty. He healed her from the poison before helping her up.

" Let's go" he said giving her his hand.

With a smile she took his hand. " What will we do now? " she asked

" We are going to return the children to their parents before destroying the church" Giyu

replied as he carried the boy before leaving followed by a blue haired beauty.
