Chapter 58 - THE SAMURAI IN NO MAN'S LAND PART 5(THE BATTLE OF LOST SOULS)

"The general? Why is the general coming and why is he a gigantic monster?" Kiyoshi asked as the creature closed in on them, smashing and moving trees as come.

"He is looking for me. Since we have been here, the general has been looking for me and I don't know why he transformed since he is the only person that did inside here, but what I do know is that it is me he is after." Remarked Otto as both he and Kiyoshi prepare themselves for battle by hiding Leon under the roots of the massive oak tree.

"He must want revenge since you are the one that killed him". Laughed Kiyoshi as he placed his menpo back on his face.

"Even in death he is blood cra", but Otto didn't get to finish his sentence as a huge creature hang above them.

Both Kiyoshi and Otto moved to higher grounds to observe the creature as well as moved the battle away from Leon. When the two arrived, they stood in shock. The creature above them was a giant centipede at least four hundred feet in length.

The massive creature had spikes running down the midsection of its back. It had thousands of legs running along both sides of its body. Its back was also plated with hard, dense armor and its body was dark brown.

When the creature turned to face them, it revealed that its face was that of general Kuyo Thailong. Around the creature, human faces were several tentacles with sharp claw-like structures on the end of them.

"At long last, I have found you Otto, and who is your friend I know remember him being on the battlefield but never the less I have come to consume your soul and have it trapped in my stomach to be damned forever." The creature remarked with a ghoulish grin on its face as it lurks above Kiyoshi and Otto.

"So it's really you, the great general Kuyo Thailong. Come to get revenge on a little old farm boy as I remember you called me." Otto remarked in a sarcastic tone of voice as he stood strong with a spear in hand.

"Laugh all you want, boy, but not even you could defeat me with this new boy."Remarked general Kuyo Thailong before attacking them. Without notice, the ain't centipede known as general Kuyo Thailong began shooting acid from its mouth. Which caused Kiyoshi and Otto to become separated. Noticing it had the advantage, the creature began shooting its tentacles toward them, causing Otto to spill and fall into the overlapping tree roots below.

With Otto gone, the creature focused all its attention and attacks on Kiyoshi as it continued splitting acid and shooting its tentacles at him in an attempt to stab him.

As it continued on with its attacks, the creature laughed, mocking Otto, telling him that he would kill his new friend and pour his blood over Otto before killing Otto himself.

But even though the creature's attacks were ruthless and seemly endless, Kiyoshi was not in trouble as his new armor gave him some much-needed power-ups in this face. Besides increasing his strength and endurance, his reflexes have also been greatly increased as he cuts through the tentacles with ease.

But for each tentacle that was cut off, several more took it places soon Kiyoshi was being surrounded and attacked by hundreds of tentacles, making it more difficult to fight as Kiyoshi hopped around root to root, trying to get an opening to attack.

With no Otto in sight, Kiyoshi saw his coming a split second where all the tentacles pause before launching at him. With a burst of speed, Kiyoshi jumped at the creature, cutting it down the middle of its face with its sword.

As Blood rained from above, covering both Kiyoshi and the surrounding environment, Kiyoshi called out for Otto but with no response. Suddenly a cold feeling took him before hearing the words you didn't believe a little cut like that would kill me, didn't you?

Alarmed, Kiyoshi quickly took invasive action as above him, the creature's destroyed face reconnected and was back to normal. The creature let out a loud and malicious laugh as it began attacking Kiyoshi again. With its now over one hundred tentacles and acid attack, the creature had a clear advantage over Kiyoshi in terms of range.

But Kiyoshi was still faster with every opening Kiyoshi got he attacked, cutting the creature's face in half and with every attack, the creature healed itself and laughed.

With little to no other options, Kiyoshi used his last opening to aim was the creature's back by jumping down and stabbing at it. But it was no use. The creature's back armor was solid and Kiyoshi's blade couldn't penetrate it even with the blood armor upgrade in strength.

The creature laughed at Kiyoshi's desperate attempt at killing it before sending Kiyoshi flying, crashing into several tree roots in the process.

"I must say, little samurai, you have lasted longer than most. But you are still weak and now you must die so I can take my revenge on Otto once and for all." Remarked the creature as it closed in on Kiyoshi, cornering him like a cat hunting a mouse as it lurks above him.

Kiyoshi, preparing for the worst, ignites his sword with a black flame using the sword's demonic powers.

"You think a little black flame on your sword could stop me, child, hahaha?" The creature laughed as it toyed with Kiyoshi.

"Kiyo, I and Tyrook are ready to help," Lilly remarked in a worried tone of voice.

"No! he will kill both of you, I will handle this," Kiyoshi replied as the creature prepared to attack.

Suddenly an object moving at breakneck speeds struck the creature, damaging its eyes and temporally blinding it. The monstrous creature let out a cry of rage and pain as it trashed about in pain.

Kiyoshi looked desperately to see where the object came from and found Otto breathing heavily from a distance.
