Chapter 44 - Chapter 44: the lost soul... The breach at the northern gates.

"aaaaaarrrrgghhhh such power!!! I am free!!! From my sacred bondage!! Now i shall bring fire on this world hahahahhahaha!" the demon roared out, as it form was compared to that of a yoma beast... and maybe even stronger. It then noticed me, as it red flaming eyes had now focused on me... damn it, i forced myself up, with the dust cloud now blocking my face and limbs. "oohhhhh fresh meat hahhaahaha so let see jsut how strong you are NOW!"

'come on... i can do this.'

In an instant, the hamji had now vanished and disappeared right in front of me; with a malicious look on it face, and an insane grin on his face... he raised his hand ready to beat me to a pulp. "DIE!!!!"

'COME ON!!!!!'

It launched its fist at me at great speed, as i could feel the massive pressure of the blow heading towards me... but never the less, i will not fall. I too launched my fist towards the incoming fist... disregarding the fact that i might as well die in the result of this situation... COME ON COME ON COME ON!!!! 'UNLESS... OF COURSE! '

"DIE!!!!!/BEGONE!!!!!!!"

"DIE/BEGONE!!!!" We both roared out at each other, and as our fist collided together; an ominous glow of light had started to radiate from my, shining a white light, which illuminated my surrounding... but just before anything could happen. The new born demon had sighted this, and in a flash, just before i could do anything... the demon had now used his other hand to grab me by the head, while lifting me up until my feet where completely off the ground.

'damn it... how did he.'

"hahahahahhaaha such power! I have never felt or sensed anything like it before! The glow contains so much.... dark presence hidden within it...... dark... mana... how is this... p-possible! It can't be!" the demon shouted in a panicked voice, letting go of my head. He started to move back, while wearing a scared look on its face. "a living mortal... bearing so much dark mana is un heard of, no being has ever hosted such darkness... no... no... i w-wont go!"

I stared at the beast for a while, still wandering about what the demon was on about. I got up to my feet, ignoring the pain my right arm as the ominous light still continued to shimmer. I started to feel the pain in my right arm starting to get too unbearable... like as if it was about to explode.

"aaaaarrgh... what... do you mean... aaaaahhhh!" i tried to reason with the demon before it could get away, but the pain was just too much. I leaned on a nearby tree, just at my right as the demon started to stare at me with a worried look... but mostly at my right arm... the tattoo that is. "WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT ME DEMON! TALK... NOW! "

"no... no... no... NO HOW CAN THIS BE! THE OMEGA SEAL... IN THIS WORLD! NO I JUST GOT OUT FROM HELL, INTO THIS WORLD! I DIDN'T COME HERE TO FACE DESTRUCTION WITH THE BEINGS OF THIS WORLD FROM YOU!" The demon cried out, as it turned away trying to escape. I was confused by what he meant, as i tried to reach out towards the demon, trying to still get some answers.

"no... wait, COME BACK! NOW!" i cried out with anger, as i stretched out my right hands in attempts to stop the demon, but without warning the ominous glow stopped with a short pause. 'huh... the pain is gone, wait but-.'

A mighty blinding light had shot out of my right arm like a blinding quasar, reaching out to the demon regardless of its speed.

"NO! NO! NOOOOOO!" the demon cried out in pain, as it was obliterated in a flash while leaving a gigantic canyon made on the ground.

" damn it, just before i could... get... him... to.. talk...." i trailed on, as i felt myself losing consciousness... damn just what was that hamji talking about anyways.

'what does he mean... what is this... omega seal...'

At the guild

In ruk's apartment

Ruk's p.o.v

'mana the raw natural energy that flows through every single being, in a world filled with it and created from it... but even though it is present within each and every one of us, we all still differ from each other and basically in this world there is only on rule... and that is the survival of the fittest, the beings of great mana are as well the power house of the whole bunch, but how long will they remain the strongest, when there are other beings out there that then don't even know exist and will great mana of untold scale and magnitude.... so in other words.'

"even the strongest... has a predator, i guess even wisdom can be passed down... father, i'm sorry." I concluded my meditation, while standing up to my feet. I stood right in front of a picture just on top of my kitchen counter... a picture of me and father at AMW academy... the moment before the incident struck. I gave out a very sad sigh as to how terrible that day was... a day that i hope to forget really soon. "all i can do is to keep on moving forward, even though it was my fault-."

boooomMMM!

"what the-... oh no not those guys again, seems like they came here to look for trouble again, just because of some stupid guild feud, maybe it we all blow off, it can't get any worst, right?" i said in a nonchantered tone, as i turned my back and started head towards my kitchen, thinking that the rival guild will just get tired and walk away... but i became wrong after i heard tamaki's voice thundering through the guild hall and outside the guild main door, and it seems that she is not happy one bit. "oh no i need to go and stop this, don't want any causuallities again because of her... at least from the rival guild side that is."

'i hope im not too late.' I wore my regular mecenary robe, which looked like you normal mages attire, but a little bit more on the combat side. I made my way towards the door, but then turned back, as i took the picture on the counter and placed it in my top-right pocket. "alright, space shift."

I chanted, as i was instantly teleported in between tamaki; who held her sword with strength and was already in a battle stance and tanku, or better known as the blazing flag of the amadilo guild, and the strongest individual in their guild apparently.

"don't you morons know when to suck it, and just accept that you fools lost the last guild tornament 10 years ago." Tamaki shouted out with anger written on her face, as she just walked towards tanku; who was basically steaming with steam coming out of his mouth.

"please tamaki stop it, we don't want to curse another guild war again... please tanku, i apologize for tamaki's rude behaviour." I apologized, as tamaki wanted to shout, but i just put her down, resulting to her pouting. "so how about we stop all this unnecessary violence and be in peace with one another... we fight hamjis not ourselves."

I tried my best, trying to ease the moment and it seems to be working well as tanku had stopped releasing steam from his mouth. "so since that all this problem is settled, how about some drinks on me." I summoned a bottle of buzzoo in my right hand, giving it to him as a peace offering; while with a smile on my face.

"hmp... i might as well accept this anyway." Tanku accepted with a smug on his face, and with that i directed everyone of my guild mate back into the guild, but tamaki had a very pissed off face on her face, and i know that she will be very angry at me for what i did... but it was the right thing to do. And though she had relaxed and let the feud go... but it seems that tanku had another thing in mind, as he opens the bottle and had taken a sip of it. "though it won't do at ALL! "

He roar a torrent of flame at the guild logo, burning it in an explosion of flame and the debris were falling right on us. I stared at the piece of the guild logo... the sun, burn away into ash. Tamaki had enough of this, as she immediately launched herself at tanku; who readied himself, with his fist covered with flames and the rest of the other guild members and tanku's guild members all launched at themselves, but then suddenly; they all stopped, unable to move. "w-what is this... why can't i move."

"tamaki, as i said before stop this... we can't pick a fight in a place with innocent people here..." i scolded her, as she now wore a guilty expression on her face. I stood there, with my usual sky blue aura around me; as i then glared at tanku, who was struggling to get out of my hold. "tanku, as foolish and ignorant as you are, even you should at least know that you are risking innocent lives with this foolish act of yours... and if you don't stop... then as a high ranker mercenary... ruk kamado .... i shall place you with trail attempt in war crime against the people and shall see to it that you're punished and so shall your comrades."

I released everyone from my binding enchantment, and like that they were all on peaceful terms with each other... though i was confused by something...' why didn't the fortia clan knights do anything about this... could it be that they were observing us?'

" fine... i will stop, but that doesn't mean that i will forgive you cheaters." Tanku folded his arms, while facing the opposite direction.

"just stop being a sore loser, you big baby." Tamaki insulted back at him, as tanku got infuriated by this and was about to start shout at tamaki. "why you-"

"EVERYONE THERE IS A BREACH IN THE NORTHERN GATES OF THE CAPITAL, AND A WHOLE HOARD OF HAMJIS HAVE STARTED TO ENTER THE CAPITAL THROUGH THE OPENING." I heard indra, panicked with a very worried tone, as some of the citizens had started to retreat to the main guild hall at the central gate of the capital.

"indra! What do you, what about the other guilds in the capital, do they know anything about this!" ruk shouted, trying to get what had led about to the breaching in the capitals gate.

"they are trying to evacuate the remaining citizens around there, while the fortia clan knights and some of the stronger guilds are trying to apprehend the hamjis..." indra responded with a serious tone in his voice as tamaki came and hugged him, being worried about him.

"im fine sis though... we need to go and reinforce them, i'm even surprised that non of you were even aware the situation." Indra said with a confused tone. Tanku ignited his fist in brillant flame, and determination in his eyes.

"then what are we waiting for huh, let go show those bastards what the amadilo guild in made of, try and keep up sun guild... hahahaha come on guys" tanku laughed and mocked, as he and his guild mates raced off to the site of the breach while we just stood there with sweat drops.

"i have had enough of this... by any chance indra, is hercul already there?" i asked with a curious tone in my voice.

"ehh yeah, hercul is the one who is currently keeping off the more large hamjis away by fight at the other side of the gate and jack and sahal... though zura is assisting the medics around there, while they try to close it from inside the gate... though it's weird that I didn't see CW over there" Indra answered, as i just smile knowing that my prediction was correct. "but why did you ask anyway?"

"well so that we won't have to stress our self getting there, unlike the amadilo guild." I said with a serious tone, while heading towards in front of the guild. "SUN GUILD PREPARE FOR BATTLE, THS IS A CODE RED BREACH SO READY YOURSELF FOR A FIGHT... ARE YOU WITH ME!"

"YYYYEAAAHHHHHHH!" they all responded with a grin on there face.

"then let's go, space art: great teleportation!" i casted, as everyone of the guilds members where transported directly to the battlefield.
