SLASH!!!
GRRRRR!!!!!
The Ishtar Tower which was slashed in two started to fall down. Everyone in the entertainment district started to panic. This tower which has been standing for countless centuries has destroyed has of today. Ishtar who was sitting on her throne also came out of her thoughts and become shocked when she saw her residence is destroyed. Tammuz Belili, who was standing behind Ishtar all this time warned Ishtar.
Tammuz: Lady Ishtar, we have to leave otherwise we will be buried underneath this tower.
Ishtar: WHICH BASTARD DID THIS TO MY HOME. I WILL MAKE SURE HE/SHE WILL PAY THE PRICE FOR IT.
Ishtar is very angry right now but all she could do is follow Tammuz Belili to hurriedly leave the tower. Since almost all of her Familia members were guarding outside of the tower, there aren't any causalities. So, Ishtar also hurriedly left.
All of the remaining people in the Entertainment District who were shocked because of sudden disappearance of all those who are affiliated with Ishtar Familia become astonished when they saw how Ishtar Tower was cut into two.
They started to wonder who got the guts to make the enemy out of Ishtar Familia. No one know who it was but when one of the people started to run towards the direction Ishtar Familia, others also followed. There is excited look on everyone face because they also want to see who is the perpetrator of this commotion.
Ishtar Familia Members who were scattered all around the Entertainment District also hurriedly move towards the direction of their Familia. The don't know why but they feel like that the end of Ishtar Familia is coming. So, they all nervously gulped and continued running as fast as possible to reach their Familia.
BANG!!!
By this time, the tower has already Fallen to the ground and dust scattered everywhere, making it hard to notice. Civilians, Adventurers and so on who have reached the location but they are maintaining a specific distance and not approaching the fallen tower carelessly.
Soon, some dust settles down and they can see Ishtar who is coming out from one of the entrances of the fallen tower. Her hair is disheveled and her body is covered with dust. She also has distorted expression on her face. She looks at all the people around and shouted.
Ishtar: WHO WAS IT? YOU DESTROY MY TOWER.
Everyone shudders and took few steps back. None of open their mouth and just look down on the ground. They know how merciless Ishtar is. She really won't hesitate to kill them if their answer won't satisfy her. So, instead of speaking they decided to remain silent. But Ishtar don't have such patience. But before she can shout again, another voice filled with rage was heard.
???: WHO INTERRUPTS MY ENJOYMENT TIME.
BOOM!!
The Debris was blown away with great force and someone came out of it. Seeing this person everyone became even more scared. She is a huge woman with a frog like face. She is wearing green clothes. On her waist there is a pink color belt and there is also a pink color heart between her chest. On her wrists and arms there are golden bangles. The woman also has a very distorted expression on her face. And in her hand, there is a Great Battle-axe.
This woman is captain of the Ishtar Familia, Phryne Jamil. Phryne is arrogant and is hated by the other members of the Ishtar Familia. She is also very possessive of men who catch her attention and will disobey orders to fulfill her desires. But because she is strongest of all other members of Familia no one dare to go against her.
Phryne: Oi, Ishtar who did this?
Ishtar: I also want to know that.
Phryne: Hmph. Pathetic.
Tammuz: You-
But before Tammuz could say anything, Ishtar raises her hand and stopped him. Everyone knows that Phryne has no loyalty at all to Ishtar and she considers herself to be more beautiful than the Goddess. But again, since she is the strongest member of the Familia, Ishtar always ignore her behavior. At this time other members of Ishtar Familia have also reached the location.
Member 1: Lady Ishtar, you alright.
Ishtar: Are all members here?
Member 2: Yes, Lady Ishtar.
Ishtar look at her members. There are 100 of them with most of them at Level 3.
Ishtar: Everyone, someone has tried to attack our Home. I don't who it is but we will make him/her pay the price of it. Let's show him/her what will happen if you go against the strongest Familia, Ishtar Familia.
All Members: YES!!!!!
Ishtar: *nod* Then-
???: Is that your last words?
SILENCE.
TOTAL SILENCE.
Everyone become shocked when these words were heard. They turn their neck towards the source of the voice. The voice came from behind Ishtar. To be more specific, from the direction of destroyed Tower. They can see a silhouette of person. That person is walking towards Ishtar.
STEP!
STEP!
STEP!
With every step the person came close. They can't see the person yet because the dust behind hasn't settled yet. But his blood-red eyes are still shinning in this dust sending a chill down their spine. Soon, he came into view and everyone falls into daze when they saw his face.
They have never seen such a Heavenly Handsome man before. Even Gods pale in comparison. The person has dark hairs. He has sharp chin and sharp nose. His skin color is the same color as that of Elves. Even though his clothes cover most of his body, it can't hide the outline of his perfect muscles and built. And if you will add his blood-red eyes into equation then this person gave a devilish look.
His height is 6 feet i.e., 182cm. His presence is not something everyone can ignore. He has a majestic presence like that of a Ruler of the world that control everything. Because of that everyone lowered their head unconsciously. At this time, one of the Adventurer in the crowd sudden came out of his daze and started to examine him. Soon, he become astonished when he matched his appearance with rumor he has heard.
The person is wearing black pants with a black belt that had a large silver buckle, a black V-necked shirt that was worn underneath a black trench-coat with gray lining going down the sleeves, and black boots with silver plates to protect his shins. He had a silver plate worn on the left side of his coat, and a pair of black fingerless gloves. He wore a strap that went over his right shoulder and under it to wrap around his left side. Then behind his back he can see a sword sheath and in it there is a black sword. Last but not the least, his blood-red eyes which makes it impossible for someone to directly look into them. Seeing that everything matches completely, the Adventurer shouted.
Adventurer 1: T-THE BLACK SWORDSMAN.
Everyone came not of their daze when they heard his shout. And commotion appears between them.
Crowd 1: H-He is The Black Swordsman.
Crowd 2: The one everyone in Orario is looking for.
Crowd 3: Damn. I only heard that he is handsome but I never thought he would be this Handsome.
Crowd 4: Why is the world so unfair.
Crowd 5: Mo~~~. So handsome.
Crowd 6: Ahhhhh
Everyone started to talk among themselves. Men are getting jealous and Women are becoming more excited. They will do anything to get into Primis bed. Soon some of the women started to fantasies about how he will look like if he will smile. But too bad, Primis has no such intention. He has his same indifferent expression on his face. The only one he has shown his emotions are those who are close to him like Ophis, Eina, Lili and Haruhime. He has also shown some of his emotions to the waitress of "Hostess of Fertility". To Chloe, Ryuu, Lunoire and Ryuu. Even though he has only shown a slight smile to them. That's all.
Crowd 7: Wait, Wait, Wait. He just said "Are those your last words" to Ishtar and her Familia. Does that mean he is one who cut the entire tower into two?
Crowd 9: What? Seriously.
Crowd 10: Then he must be committing suicide for going against Ishtar Familia.
Crowd 11: Yes, it's suicide. He openly declared his intention to destroy Ishtar Familia.
Crowd 12: I don't think it is suicide though.
Crowd 13: Huh? Why?
Crowd 12: Have you seen any Adventure that can split the entire tower in two on his own.
Crowd 13: ...…
Crowd 14: That's impossible. He must have used some Magic equipment or something.
Crowd 13: Yes, yes. There is no way he is strong enough to do it.
Primis and everyone is Ishtar Familia heard what the crowd said but they didn't say anything. But the members of Ishtar Familia have already raised their guard to the limit. They also hope that Primis has used Magic equipment. Because if he can cut the tower with his own power then they don't think they are his match. Because even Ottar the strongest Level 7 Adventurer in Orario with the Alias "The King" can't do this.
Ishtar: I don't know what Magic Item you used to cut by tower but I know such item is very rare and can only be used one or two times. But still, I will forgive you for what you have done, if you swear to be my pet for the rest of my life.
Phryne: Oi, Ishtar this man in mine. So, don't interfere.
Ishtar: No, he is mine.
Ishtar and Phryne started to argue. In their mind, Primis is already their property. As for the remaining Members they took a disappointed sigh. They also want Primis for themselves but they can't go against their Goddess Ishtar and also the merciless Phryne Jamil. Even as they argue, Ishtar is constantly looking at Primis. There is frown on her forehead when he looks at Primis. Because ever since Primis appeared, Ishtar is constantly using her Charm on him but to no vail.
Whenever she tries to look directly into his eyes, her own eyes started to blur and she feels like she falling into an illusion. This has never happened before so she is getting impatient. She thought that Primis has some other item which is protecting him. So, she glances at Tammuz Belili, who is standing behind. He instantly understands what Ishtar wants and secretly sipped out as Ishtar and Phryne are arguing. Just as Primis is going to draw his going to draw his Elucidator, Twilight prompt.
[Primis, I have good news.]
'Primis: What?'
[Don't you want a second blade? So, that you can use Dual-Wielding in future.]
'Primis: ...…..'
Primis was of course tempted but he decided to remain silent. Twilight continued.
[I have a way that can help you create your second blade.]
'Primis: What is it?'
[Blood Essence.]
'Primis: Blood Essence?'
[Yes. Blood Essence is something essential in maintaining vital activities of the human body system. These substances are essential for all life activities. You see normal human contain 4-5 drops of blood essence in their body. But Adventurers are different. Level 1 Adventurer contain 10 drops of blood essence; Level 2 Adventurer contains 20 drop of Blood essence; Level 3 Adventurer contain 30 drops of blood essence; so on and so forth. And since your path will be full of blood then why don't we use it to our advantage.]
'Primis: How?'
[Primis, from now on whenever you will kill someone, I will their extract blood essence from their body. I have already selected a slot in inventory where all the blood essence will be stored. Once you have collected enough blood-essence, I will tell you the method to create your second blade.]
Primis nodded inwardly and then draws out his Elucidator.
SHING!!
His action attracts everyone attention. After drawing his Elucidator, Primis bent forward while placing Elucidator in a parallel manner to his right leg and then draws his sword back. Magic started to gather in it and then Primis move all of a sudden move to his right closing the distance of twenty meters in an instant and do an upward slash from his right.
SPLURT!!!
His Elucidator attacks the neck of the person. The person whose neck was cut opened his eyes wide before he falls down holding the neck which is releasing blood nonstop. This person is none other than Tammuz Belili who Ishtar just now gave the order to apprehend Primis silently.
THUD!!!
Even to the end of his life he keeps on looking at Primis who didn't even look at him like he is not even worth looking at.
'Primis: Rage Spike.'
Primis said the name of his skill in his mind. He doesn't have to do this but Primis feels that it gave him a better image of the skill when he uses its name to define it.
[40 drops of Blood Essence acquired.]
