An otherworldly aura descended once the soul eater sword appeared, silently hovering next to Kenta. However, as though the "Soul eater" Greatsword had a will of its own, the blade of the sword shone brightly as a barrier made from the aura of death surround Kenta, shielding him from the many wind shuriken's!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Each time the hundreds of shuriken's made contact with the death barrier, they disappeared as though the aura of death had swallowed them whole.
At the same time the howling of the cold night wind along with the strange feeling of the death aura gave the atmosphere a chilling vibe no one could explained.
Feeling the strange pressure emanating from the unfamiliar aura before her, the black-haired ninja stopped in her tracks with a warily look on her face. The surrounding rumbled violently as the aura of death covered Kenta's body.
Many of the civilians close by could feel their body slowly getting weaker and weaker as time passed, the old fell to their knees, and fainted while the young could feel their skin decaying rapidly.
At the same time Kenta's body was slowly being healed as he received the life energy from all those around him!
He still didn't understand what was happening but, at the same time he didn't care either as long as he survives that's all that mattered.
Kenta reached out and grab the hilt of soul eater, once his hand made contact, he didn't know why but, he felt powerful! He felt as though he was strong enough to face anyone! He was a superior being, everyone else were worthless in his eyes!
Kenta's face became darkness, as though there was a veil that covered his entire face preventing anyone from seeing what lies on the other side, only two pair of crimson eyes were visible! "This... what is this?" The black-haired ninja questioned. She could feel her strength weakening once that unfamiliar sword made its appearance.
"What kind of magic sword is that?" She asked, as she took out two short swords from the sheath on her back. However, Kenta had no intentions of answering her questions.
"Th-this aura..." Leroux frowned; he didn't know why but he didn't like this aura at all! He could also feel his body getting weaker the more he stayed there. Meanwhile, a beast could be seen flying in the sky with its red eyes locked onto Kenta on the ground.
Once the aura of death was released the flying beast promptly moved away and flew back to Jessica as though it was scared of that aura. It was an instinctual feeling! The aura of death could be said to be the enemy to all living beings, this is why the god of death was so hated among those from the lower worlds. Jessica quickly undone her "Beast summoning magic" As a magic formation appeared and the flying beast instantly disappeared within the formation.
Once her beast was no longer in any real danger anymore, she looked back at Kenta and narrowed her blue colored eyes as a strange glint shone in them. "This boy, perhaps he... he really could be the person I was searching for all along." Jessica mumbled to herself. Purple lightning flickered around Kenta's body as he closed the distance to the black-haired ninja and swung his sword vertically. However, she also reacted instantly swinging her short swords horizontally!
BANG!
The two swords collided together creating the clear sound of metal hitting metal! They didn't stop there, they both moved at blinding speed swinging their sword in rapid succession. The sound of metal along with sparks that flew whenever their swords clashed scattered everywhere! Throughout this exchanges the black-haired ninja targeted Kenta's vital areas slashing her short swords towards his chest, heart and abdomen. However, Kenta had blocked all her attempts as he swung his sword to change the trajectory of her attack.
Finally, the two separated and stared warily at the other. The black-haired ninja panted heavily as she tried to catch her breath, the aura of death still covered Kenta's body, she could still feel her body getting weaker even now! Because of this she wanted to end the fight as soon as possible but that seems impossible.
"Tell me something boy, are you really human? Your aura is something I have never felt before." She questioned. "... Human?" Kenta's eyes widened slightly as he never expected to be asked such a questioned. "I do consider myself to be human. However, in order for me to reach my goals I'll have to cast such things aside and become something else... something much more!" He answered, as his blue eyes flickered for a second becoming blood red.
At the same time the sky became cloudy, it was now impossible to see the stars in the night sky, only thunder clouds were visible crackling with purple lightning as the constant sound of thunder erupted. Hundreds of purple lightning fell down from the sky irregularly striking the many buildings in the area.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
Every time a bolt of lightning descended from the sky a building was destroyed as it collapses from the point of impact, causing more destruction everywhere!
The screams and cries of people could be heard everywhere as they tried finding somewhere to take shelter from the purple lightning. Unfortunately, there wasn't a safe place in sight! Broken pieces of what used to be beautiful building and broken pieces of wood was left scattering everywhere!
Once again Kenta closed the distance between them swinging his sword!
...
In one particular building that was once one of the biggest buildings in the city of Zaril, a man dressed in a nightwear could be seen running down the long staircase of his residence. The roof of the building was falling apart from the constant shower of purple lightning. "Shit! Shit! Shit! What the hell is happening?" Wyatt questioned, as he ran down the long staircase.
This place was his home, which cost him a great deal of money, to watch it all fall apart like this made him furious! "Who's the bastard that's creating this lightning?!" He roared, with bloodshot eyes.
Though, he didn't falter in his steps for a second, even though he was angry he was also scared.
Just one attack from that purple lightning was enough to easily destroy the walls of the buildings he didn't want to imagine getting hit by that lightning. Finally, as he was about halfway from reaching the end of the staircase the other half collapse and fell down to the ground.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The staircase broke apart crumbling into tiny remains as a loud thud echoed through the hall. "Fuck!" Wyatt cursed as he held onto the rail of the remainder half on the staircase, with lifeless eyes. Those staircases were the only exit available for him.
What was he supposed to do now that it was broken? He fell down weakly onto his knees as though he had already accepted his death.
Since he was in his own residence this was the safest place for him, so he never bothered to bring any guards with him, since no one would be dumb enough to break into his home but.
"Hahaha... to think I'd make such a mistake." He laughed as though the situation was quite funny even though he was standing before the entrance to the door of death. ".... Son looks like you won't be alone for long, this old man will be joining you." He muttered, weakly.
Soon the entire building was struck by multiple purple lightning one after another as the entire building finally reached its end and collapse. Jessica and Leroux both stood silently watching the wide range destruction before them.
The purple lightning also targets them occasionally but, each time one of those purple lightning fell into their direction, Leroux raised his right hand, and at the same time the ring on his middle finger would shine subtly as the purple lightning would be absorbed effortlessly without even being able to put up the slightest resistance.
"Have you had enough? I'm going to put a stop to this." Leroux said, as he turned to look at Jessica who was standing next to him. Hearing his words, she simply sighed and shrugged her shoulder. "Do whatever you want." But then her gazed turned towards another building in the distance as she said. "But... I will deal with the boy, as for that guy who has been spying on us for a while now, you can take care of him."
"Oh, so you notice him. Why didn't you say anything sooner?" Leroux questioned, curiously. "I didn't really care; he didn't seem to have any intention of attacking us." Jessica answered simply. Soon she muttered some unfamiliar words and a magic formation appeared before her. A giant creature with three heads, three tails and six wings appeared as she jumped onto its back and flew into Kenta's direction.
"Sigh, I really don't understand where she got that insouciant personality from." Leroux scratch his head as he disappeared into the distance. Hiding in the shadows was a man dressed in black, he was observing the purple lightning that fell from the sky with such vigor that they destroy everything in their wake! 'Strange, what kind of lightning is that?' He wondered. He wanted to observe both Jessica and Leroux closer but was afraid to come out of the shadows.
Since he was in the form of a shadow the lightning couldn't harm him directly but, it was difficult to move closer since there were very few shades anywhere. "Oya, are you planning to come out? You know it's no use hiding when your presence is already detected, right?" Leroux said, with a humble smile on his face.
After roughly 20 second the shadow moved and took human shape as a person appeared before him.
...
Meanwhile, the three headed flying creature made its way towards Kenta. With Jessica on its back an explosion echoed which caught her attention. The figure of the black-haired ninja could be seen as her body was sent flying crashing through various buildings; her body had various wounds which were bleeding profusely.
With something approaching her, yes it was "Something" Because honestly, Jessica really didn't know what that "Thing" was. If she had to give some kind of description then she could say it was 'Darkness' Yes, just pure darkness.
The darkness had the appearance of a small boy but, it was impossible to see his face, as though there was something blocking out anyone from seeing the face. Only two pairs of glowing red eyes were visible! It was only then that she realized that boy wasn't human... he was like the incarnation of something akin to that of a monster, "Hahaha... I guess all along the monster wasn't me after all. This boy is a real monster in human skin." She muttered to herself.
