Larry wasn't liking what he was looking at through a floating glass orb. he moved his skinny fingers to his shrivelled chin and stroked it as if in deep thought. he was the necromancer of the undead plains and a citizen of the dark country. he had left his homeland to take residence within these plains and started doing experiments. he had never really bothered many as he carried out his several experiments.
he was currently sitting on a large rock in the centre of an underground lake within the plain. he had been bored for some time and had decided to test these people who dared to intrude into his home. seeing that they were able to fight off the former knights and even destroy his eraser dimension...then they must be powerful.
he got up from his sitting position and raised his right hand above the glass orb and started an incantation. he had several dark threads emerging between his hand and the orb as they swayed and became more and more visible. the threads were about 20 as they interlaced and swayed with an aura of death coming from them.
"rise fiends...Grand-Nish!"
his voice was sharp and loud as he chanted his incantation. with the chant out of the way, his magic started forcing the several threads to weave together into a small circular ring. Larry wasn't able to have his own emotions so he wasn't interested that he had performed a very difficult spell. he then flicked the ring towards the orb and tapped it.
the ring expanded and surrounded the orb snuggly.
{I should watch how they handle this...}
Larry had a lazy expression on his wrinkled face as he watched the group head into the fog with brave faces.
*********
Marv was temporarily blinded as he headed into the fog with Finn's hand on his shoulder. the group was moving in a line with a hand placed on the person in front of them. in case they got separated in the fog. Marv walked on for what he thought was three minutes and Brianna constantly asking if they were out of the fog yet. Brianna was in Marv's arms with her eyes closed and her breathing heightened slightly.
Marv finally felt the ground under his feet change slightly as a pungent scent hit his nose. he widened his eyes as he walked out of the fog and saw the ground under his feet properly.
the ground was soft and a dark brown colour. Finn followed after Marv and the rest after him. they looked around their surroundings. the land stretched on endlessly with a few stray trees popping out of the ground and very few patches of grass.
Marv summoned his [rose scythe] and gave 50 millilitres of his blood. he felt slightly unbalanced before his scythe grew larger in size with the blade even more solid. everybody looked at Marv's scythe a bit uncomfortably but got themselves ready for battle.
Marv then told them to stop. he wanted to deal with these monsters by himself before the others came to assist him. not wanting to be a burden he walked ahead with his eyes searching the land vigilantly.
he actually had been notified by Angelina that she had sensed no more heroic deaths in this area and he could properly fight now. he was going to train himself with these fights, even though the strength of these beings may be higher than normal.
he stopped walking when his [divine radar] sensed about three large presences surrounding him in a triangle formation. he looked around to see nothing else other than the others and stray trees. Marv had made sure to leave Brianna with Finn so he wasn't burdened during this.
the ground under shook and slightly cracked. Marv swung his scythe around and pulled it out of one of the cracks. he glanced at the blade that he had pushed into the crack and saw some black blobs floating around the blood. he forced some more blood into the scythe and the contaminated blood separated from the scythe.
although indistinct three figures had appeared around Marv with the air around them distorted. the others watched as the three giant figures stood up straight with large weapons in their hands. each giant looked ugly with half their bodies made purely of what seemed like rotten flesh. the other half were skeletal bones that popped out of the rotten flesh at odd places. they didn't have any facial features as their bodies lacked heads. Marv observed them and watched as they surrounded him.
the giants were at least twice Marv's height and all held large swords made of bones and metal. the rotten flesh attached to the bones seemed to be like their muscles as dark green liquid oozed from several gashes.
Marv was now smirking as he swung his scythe to his right with little energy. he smiled as he walked to one of the giants that stood before him. the other giants didn't move as Marv raised his scythe high above his head and destroyed it.
{what?}
everybody watched Marv destroying his scythe with a smirk.
Marv then moved his hands to his side as he decided to do something else.
[summon: consequence]
the next second a large magic circle appeared between Marv and the giant and Angelina appeared while bowing. she asked what Marv would have her do and Marv told her to help him defeat the giants. Angelina nodded quietly as she raised her head and stared at the giant behind her. it was letting off a pungent smell and was dripping with green liquid.
Angelina gave it a glance before she raised her hand to its chest and made a cutting gesture in the air. a soft whistle could be heard before the giant collapsed with a green fountain sprouting from its chest. the rotten flesh of the giant fell off the bones and revealed what looked like a heart sliced in two. the heart was bright red with six different tubes that were sliced and spraying green blood everywhere.
Angelina simply smiled as she turned to do the same to the other two. she walked towards one of the giants that had its sword raised and was stomping towards her. Angelina watched as the rotten flesh contracted and expanded each time it took a giant step and more green blood dripped onto the ground.
{don't bother my master...}
she frowned as she did the same action as before. her fingers made another soft whistle as she made a cutting gesture this time upwards.
the giant suddenly rose a little bit in the air as it arched its back slightly and slumped to the ground with its heart sliced. Angelina would then glance to the last giant that seemed to have grown slightly larger and had dropped its sword to the ground. it cupped its fist in its other empty hand and a low grunt could be heard. Angelina raised her brow at this and frowned even more. she walked to the last giant that seemed to challenge her and was now stomping towards her.
"you want to have a fistfight?..."
Angelina watched as the giant stomped the ground three times in only what she could assume to be an affirmation. she looked at it and then just as before she made a cutting gesture in the air downwards. the giant stopped moving and separated into two with the rotten flesh stretching between both halves before snapping.
"I don't have the time for that."
