"We are just a group of students who escaped from their school due to rakshasas and are now currently looking to settle somewhere." I told her because I wanted to see if we could do this peacefully.
"yeah right" My eyes were twitching after seeing the beautiful tantric girl roll her eyes while telling us.
I wanted to say a remark but composed myself, this is not the time for rash decision.
"Please believe us we don't want to cause any harm" I again told and suddenly she showed me an evil smile.
"Ok if you want to prove to us that you all are innocent, become our slaves" she told us, and I was bloody furious.
She made a hand sign and the archers that were with her drew their bows and arrows.
Seeing this action, me and my team all drew their weapons too, I could hear a faint a conch sound from somewhere but didn't pay any mind to it.
The battle had started, and my aim was the tantric girl since she was the leader.
I rushed towards her but there were many people blocking my way but using my fast gauntlet punches, I defeated all of them and finally reached the girl.
"Bravo, what a fearsome warrior you are, looks like I have to use my most powerful weapon" she said and then her staff disappeared.
She unsheathed her sword and pointed it towards me. It had a silver blade with a black handle. There were some mantras on the blade which signified her tantric powers.
I didn't make any of my weapons disappear because I didn't want her to have any advantage over me.
"Oh, not an honorable person I see" she said, and I nodded not interested to talk to her.
She pointed her sword at me and then gestured me to come at her. Well, no point on dragging the fight.
I dashed at her and with the trident, I slashed at her, and it was blocked. But I didn't stop my attack there, I let go of the trident and sent a right hook with my right gauntlet which sent her flying to side, but she quickly balanced herself.
"That was a good punch" she said while wiping the blood that was dripping from her lip.
She suddenly muttered a mantra and her speed increased; she sent a kick to my stomach which made me cough up blood. She was strong but because of the trident, which was plunged into the ground, I maintained my balance.
I started to breathe and chant a mantra, it improved all of my physical attributes, and then another mantra was chanted which increased my reaction speed.
While I was distracted, she had sent another punch but due to great reaction spell, I was able to dodge it. I quickly sent a jab which dazed her due to her head going back.
While she was recovering, I sent a punch to her jaw and then to her liver. Both of them proved to be devasting and her body was unable to move. I started to twirl the trident and then pierced her through the chest.
My trident came out of her back and the blade along with handle was bloodied. I knew that the trident in reality pierced her heart which killed her. I lifted her up in the air.
The war between the two groups stopped after seeing her corpse. Then used the trident to put her on the ground and placed my foot on the chest. I pulled out the trident and cut of her head.
I grabbed the severed head and then lifted it high up in the air by the hair. The blood was dripping on the ground, and I probably looked like Veerbhadra when he cut of Prajapati Daksha's head.
"STOP THIS BLOODY WAR"
I yelled and everyone was frozen, because this level of brutality was only achieved by serial killers, and it was unthinkable for an ordinary student to achieve this brutality.
Underneath the bridge was Ganga and even though she tried to kill me, she deserved to rest.
I made my trident disappear and then lifted her head and body with my two hands. The blood was still overflowing and then with a huge scream threw her corpse.
I looked at my blood-stained hands and clenched my fist. This was the first time I had to kill and felt the urge to cry and vomit.
But I buried the urge deep within not wanting anyone to see my weakness. Many people would call me dramatic, but I am not some evil protagonist who has no remorse, I am just a student who was dragged in this [Rakshasa Apocalypse].
Just an ordinary student nothing more. My adrenaline finally stopped pumping and finally the pain crashed into me. I spitted out blood from my mouth.
I knew that I was bleeding from my nose, ears and eyes along with many cuts on my chest. This was the result of Tantric spells and because of the great combat level of that girl.
I slowly went towards the bus, and everyone was getting out of my way because of fear. I grabbed my Shiva locket tightly in anger and despair.
I knew I was being looked at with fear, they thought I was a Rakshasas. The main thing that hurt me the most was the reaction of Sana and Aditya. They gaze held fear and this really hurt me.
I hadn't described Sana earlier but now I will let you know a secret. Sana was my ex. We broke up, because of some problem and that's why she didn't accept anyone's proposal.
Aditya is my best friend but even he showed fear in his gaze. Everyone probably thought that this wasn't my first murder because of my nonchalant expression. If they knew what was going on in my mind, their reactions would be far different.
I guess I am now a monster to them, I stopped and then went on. I passed the bus but didn't enter.
I left the bridge and was now going back to my home even though I knew everything was probably destroyed.
Due to the battles, I had forgotten about my parents and now after facing betrayal, I remembered their face.
I was silently walking to the direction of my house and my tears were silently leaving my eyes.
