The hand of the unknown figure in the darkness slowly approached Kenta's exposed neck, that hand was both slender and at the same time delicate, yet it also carried a strange feeling of danger.
The cold air blew through the opened window behind the figure along with the clear flapping sound of the curtain fluttering in the night breeze.
The figure once again observed Kenta's sleeping face closely as the hand of the figure drew near and was a distance of merely three meters away from making contact with Kenta's neck, a deathly cold voice along with a tremendous killing intent erupted, instantly dispersing the peaceful atmosphere within the room!
"Who the hell are you?!" For an instant purple lightning flickered wildly as the room was illuminated with a faint purple radiance.
The face of the figure was finally revealed for an instant as the glow of the purple lightning illuminated her facial features.
However, noticing she had been discovered she made a tactical retreat and instantly backed away and was prepared to escape through the opened window behind her but...
"?!" Before she could a wall made from purple lightning suddenly appeared blocking entry to the window behind her. Two pair of glowing crimson eyes looked at her from amidst the darkness. "You already went through the trouble of coming here, why leave so soon?" A voice that was filled with murderous intent, yet carried no intonation spoke amidst the darkness.
"Let me guess, you're an assassin working for the father of that arrogant pig and was sent to kill me." Kenta spoke, as a powerful pressure filled the entire room. Even though he was acting calm on the outside, only he knew how pissed off he actually was.
Not long ago he was sleeping peacefully, when Agni suddenly warned him of an intruder breaking into his room! He wanted nothing more than to break the neck of the figure who stood before him now!
Soon, the entire room became bright as a sphere of multicolored flame suddenly burst out from his palm, completely illuminating the room, and making it possible to see everything within the entire room, Agni acted as an artificial light source.
Kenta's blue colored eyes narrowed with a dangerous gleam within them as he got to his feet. "So, are you going to explain yourself?" He questioned, in a calm tone. However, "..." The woman remained silent as she drew a dagger from the strap on her right thigh and went into a fighting stance.
"I see... in that case I'll just kill you, then kill the bastard who sent you." Kenta said, indifferently. However, he could see that the woman before him was no push over, as her aura was actually really strong! He really wasn't confident he could win, but then again so what? His nap was ruined because of them, He was really furious!
However, he quickly summoned a greatsword made from purple lightning, he had considered using "Soul eater" But, decided against it using that sword indoors wasn't ideal.
Besides, this could easily serve as training as the black-haired woman before him was an experience fighter. Before Kenta could say anything, the black-haired woman's body blurred as she suddenly disappeared as she closed the distance with agile steps swinging the dagger in her right hand!
But Kenta saw through all her swings, he moved his body instantly to react to all her strike, as his sword clashed against her dagger! 'Hm? He blocked my attack?' She wondered with wide eyes, but when she sees the streaks of purple lightning coming from Kenta's body, she finally saw through the reason he was able to react to all her speed.
'No wonder lightning is so feared, its speed is no joke.' She thought as she distances herself from Kenta. As an assassin she had a lot of pride in her own speed seeing that she was being out done by someone much younger than her didn't make her feel happy at all. "?!" She increased her speed closing in on Kenta! While thrusting her dagger.
Aiming for his limbs since she couldn't kill him!
However, Kenta swung his sword at the same time effectively blocking all her strike as he closed in on the black-haired woman, attacking her with his elbow. 'This...?' But just as he was about to land a elbow strike her body suddenly disappeared as he phases through her as though she had turned into smoke.
"?!" Kenta didn't have time to adjust the movement of his body as a sudden feeling of danger assaulted him from behind. 'Shit!' He exclaimed as he quickly created a barrier made from purple lightning. A purple transparent barrier materialized which blocked a kunai that was thrown by the black-haired woman who skillfully blended in with the darkness.
While the barrier erected by Kenta was able to stop the kunai successfully, the kunai had managed to crack the barrier. 'This woman, is she enhancing the speed and force of her weaponed using the wind?' Kenta frowned as that thought entered his head.
This woman was dangerous his instinct told him that! 'If she is able to manipulate the wind element then that explained how she snuck in here and got passed my senses,' even while Kenta slept, he should be able to hear everything happening inside the room but, he remembered skillful wind type mages could use the wind element in various ways, just like lightning wind could also be used to increase the acceleration of one's movement speed and also, it could be used to erase the sound of footsteps.
Cold sweats slid down Kenta's face as purple lightning flickered around his body, 'She can even blend in with the darkness as well? Just how skilled is this woman?' He wondered.
Seeing this Kenta became more alert than before, he sharpens his senses not relying entirely on his sight! 'Agni, can you brighten up the place a bit more?' He asked, 'Yes, master!' A slightly cheerful voice responded. At the same time the sphere of flame grew slightly bigger as the room temperature increased along with its illumination.
Kenta could now see everywhere inside his room but, there was still no sign of the black-haired woman anywhere! "In that case, how about this!" Kenta stabbed the blade of his purple sword into the ground, sending a current of lightning into the ground. Lightning flickered occasionally along the floor!
"Tsk!" The black-haired woman could finally be seen leaping into the air as she skillfully evaded the purple lightning. Her beautiful face grimaced as she made an unfamiliar sign with her one hand "Secret art! Wind tornado!" She chanted; at the same time a spiral of wind was created with the black-haired woman in the center!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh...
The sound of heavy wind resounded inside the room as the various objects placed inside scattered around and became a mess! Kenta braced himself holding his sword but, the intense wind made it difficult for him to open his eyes.
"Tch, how irritating!" He muttered as he raised his sword upwards, at the same time the purple greatsword grew bigger and the blade of the sword became broader! Agni gently wrapped around the blade of the sword, creating a sword that was both lightning and flame. The wariness within the emerald, eyes of the black-haired woman grew tremendously as she felt the terrifying power behind that sword! In an instant she released a blast of wind.
Feeling the power of his greatsword, the corners of Kenta's lips turned upwards as he swung it down with all his might! Both the combination of lightning and fire made contact with the blast of gale from the front!
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!
What resulted from his swing was an explosion of colossal magnitude as the entire room was completely destroyed in such a way that even the floors on the bottom were completely destroyed! The entire Inn shook and some parts of the building collapse as its foundation became unstable from the powerful tremors.
The explosion was so loud it managed to wake all the citizens up from far away, as for those who were within the inn when Kenta had launched the attack, many were unlucky and died from heavy objects falling on their heads subsequently buried alive. While others got away with either serious injuries or minor injuries.
"Hey, isn't this getting a bit out of hand?" A handsome man with blonde colored-haired said, as he watches the scene unfold. Both Jessica and Leroux were currently standing on the tallest building in the distant as they observed the fight between Kenta and the black-haired woman.
They never could have imagined that young boy could have an attack so destructive.
"Hmm... he combined both his lightning and fire which created a new attack. How does he have such free control over his element?" Jessica wondered. Even though the screams of various people could be heard all around her only focus was on the young blonde-haired boy.
Leroux couldn't help but stare blankly at her, he knew her for a long time and knew that she was a person who rarely showed sympathy towards others but still... he was surprised with her level of indifference, it was as if she really didn't care about what happened to the crowd of people down below.
Meanwhile, Kenta held the hilt of his purple greatsword as he observed his surroundings, he had leapt through the opened window to chase after the black-haired woman who had used her wind to escape to avoid the explosion. Standing in the distance the black-haired woman could be seen staggering onto her feet as blood drip down her left hand which had burn marks visible on her once pure white skin.
However, despite the pain of her left arm she bit her lips and rip off the sleeve of her clothing. The explosion had also ruined her long black hair which was tied into a one-sided ponytail. Her hair was now undone and freely came down to her waist. ".... I have decided I will no longer capture you, instead I will kill you!" She exclaimed.
She once again made another unfamiliar hand sign with her right hand and slowly chanted. "Boost!" Hearing this Kenta frowned. 'Boost, a body enhancement spell?' Body enhancement spells increase the toughness of the body and also allows the user to move at high speed, 'She was already moving fast before but how fast will she move now?' He wondered.
However, before Kenta could say anything the figure of the black-haired woman's body suddenly disappeared from Kenta's sight even though he hadn't taken his eyes off her.
A huge amount of pain suddenly assaulted him as his surrounding became a blur, the black-haired ninja appeared before him in a blink of an eye and landed a sharp kick into his abdomen sending him flying backwards!
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
BOOOOOM!
Like a kite whose strings were cut his body slammed into multiple obstacles as he crashed into a wall which caved in with multiple cracks going across from the center of impact! "Cough, cough, cough!" Kenta coughed out a mouthful of blood as it felt like all the air was forcefully pushed out of his lungs! He fell down weakly to the ground as his vision blurred.
"Secret art, wind shuriken!" She chanted and at the same time hundreds of magic formations appeared in the sky as the wind took the form of hundreds of shuriken rotating in midair.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In an instant all those shuriken shot outwards towards Kenta like a bullet, "Cough, c-come!" Kenta weakly held out his hand and at the same time space between his hand twisted fiercely! As "Soul eater" Made its entry.
