***NoTe
I don't close in on the cereberus. I have to be smart going against it. It has defense negation which is dangerous. Every attack has to be dodged. The ground starts changing shape beneath me. I jump away from it and Cereberus sends 3 fire balls my way. I tank the damage and blitz Cereberus. He's really just a big dog. Which means there are some places he can't see me from.
I kick his hind legs then hit him with a knee strike to the chin. He stumbles back then swings at me. I just barely dodge his claws. I flip backwards to get out of his range.
" I can sense a tremendous amount of mana in you. So why aren't you using it?"Cereberus asks.
" It's my own little training method don't take it as disrespect." I say to him.
" So I'm just a training dummy to you!!" Cereberus says angrily. Damn I didn't think that would piss him off. I was just telling him the truth. He starts manipulating the ground around me and shooting flames. Wait a minute. Cereberus has 3 heads. He's only been using 2 abilities. So if it's 1 ability per head. Then there's another ability I need to be wary of.
Let's see if I could force it out of him. I strike the ground. I push all the debris in the air to hit Cereberus but he blocks it. However his vision is blocked as well. I throw two small blades right in his eyes. He let's out a loud scream almost a roar. Did his last ability have something to do with sound? I start feeling the ground shake but it isn't because of him.
I turn around and there's another beast right behind me. It looks pissed. This must be momma cereberus. The one I was fighting was just an infant. Thats boring. She jumps over me and checks on her son. Then looks at me. This is dangerous, I get ready to fight seriously.
"White reaper black reaper. Every time one of you come here someone in our clan loses their life. I'm getting tired of it. It's time for one of you to die." The beast says.
"Woah I had no plans on killing your son. I was just trying to train. You see if I wanted to kill your son you wouldn't be looking at a dead body right now." I say to her
"That's a lie all of you reapers are murders." She says to me.
" I only kill when necessary. It isn't necessary right now. Plus after me there won't be anymore reapers. I'm the last." I say to her.
" I'll give you my real name. As a reaper I'm technically a demonic being. Having a demonic beings real name gives you an advantage correct." I say to her
" Okay what is it?" She asks.
" It's NoTe. My name is NoTe." I say to them
" Okay then NoTe. What do you plan on doing now?" She asks.
"I'll be leaving through that portal." I say to her.
" Wait if you leave then my son will be punished by the king." She says to me.
" Okay I'll bring your son with me then." I say to her.
"No. That will be worse." She says.
" The king won't touch him if he's with me. Plus I'm sure you are tired of guarding purgatory. So what do you say kid wanna come?" I ask him
"He can't even leave he doesn't have a name. All the demons are here because we are nameless. Our clan name doesn't count." She says.
"Okay then I'll give him a name. If it's okay with him." I say. He nods at me Yes.
"Okay I'll name you Lycan. You'll be called Lycan Cereberus." I say to him.
"What shall I call you?" He asks.
" Just call me NoTe. This isn't a master slave contract. We are partners. You deserve as much respect as I do." I say to him.
" Can you really keep my son safe?" She asks.
" Don't worry your son will be fine in my care. If anything he'll come back stronger than anyone else in your clan." I say to her.
" Okay good. Son I need you to be careful. Come back to your mother in one piece. I love you." She says to him.
" Yes ma'am. I will and I love you too." Lycan says to his mom.
" Okay come on Lycan we need to go straight through the portal." I say to him.
"What are we going to do after that?" He asks.
" We are going to meet our king. " I say to him. He gives me a fearful look but I ignore it. I wonder what type of training come next. Kuro told me that purgatory is just the start. It's to create the body of a reaper. He said after that is two other steps I have to go through. I'm sure the job of the white reaper is more than attacking for the king. If the black reaper is his shield than I am his sword.
I won't end up like the last white reaper. I have to be better than my predecessors. My strength that I work hard to are everyday. I shall be proud of it one day.
I hope my brother is okay. I have no idea how much time has passed on earth. It could've been a day or a month or a year. I'll have to wait until I'm able to go back to find out. I'm sure he'll be much stronger by then.
" Do we really have to meet the king?" Lycan asks.
" Yeah don't worry he won't do anything. He needs me and your with me. Which means he needs you as well." I say to him. We walk through the doors that leads to the kings room.
" You escaped purgatory a lot quicker than I expected. You also brought a friend with you. Nice to meet you Lycan." Kuro says. Lycan looks confused that he knows his new name. He doesn't know that they were watching me try whole time.
" It's good to see you again NoTe." The king says.
" It's good to see you as well Lucifer." I say to him.
