Part 6
The desire of the dead 2
———
Eliot noticed that Nell were walking out of the hall, and he quickly finished the drink in his hand and left it on a random table.
Eliot: Where are you going now?
Nell: To my master! She wants to see you.
With quick steps, Nell led Eliot to a library styled place.
The huge library was being organized by a tall woman.
Nell: Sherald!!
Sherald said "What is it" without turning around
Nell: Look who I brought to you.
Sherald turned around and saw Eliot.
!!??
In an instant, the library turned into an open space.
Eliot: What the fuck is going on?
Sherlad: This is a virtual library, essentially an arena that you can use.
Eliot made an understood sign with his head and turned around to leave the arena.
Sherald: You're not going anywhere. You will show me your skills.
Eliot: I don't have to-
Before he could finish his speech, he saw that one pistol appeared in the hands of the woman.
WEAPON!!
Twin devil
These weapons, which come from the depths of hell and are fed by creatures, are effective as a sniper at long range and as dangerous as a bomb at close range. Each bullet consumes great amount of desire.
Sherald said "Come on!"
Elliot activated his reinforcement while calling out "the honor of war"
He was shot in the stomach just as he was about to move!
The bullets did not have a penetrating effect, but they caused excruciating pain, Eliot, who could hardly keep himself from vomiting, rise up again and was shot once more. There was no sound of the gun or the shape of the bullet, ıt shoots at the moment the trigger was pulled.
However, he raised his sword and took position again. He didn't know when, how, or where the bullet would come, so he nervously started running towards Sherald.
He was shot again.
This time the bullet hit his left shoulder and made his arm completely numb, he could not lift the battle honor only can be held by a pair of hands because of the weight.
Sherald: You can give up, I didn't expect a novice to win against me. I just had a feeling that you could do something.
Eliot raised his right arm and stood up.
Sherald thought this was a way of giving up and recalled his weapons.
Eliot stared straight at Sherald and said:
"The honor of war"
He called his sword again, which he could not lift from the ground with one hand, and activated it again after raising his arm in the air.
He brought the sword down hard and shattered the marble on the floor, creating a momentary distraction.
Since the improved structure of the marble was shattered, it was scattered around in a pointed manner! Realizing that the fragments would bleed her body, Sherald covered her face with her hands.
Eliot, who quickly approached him, was covered in blood, as he was the one who smashed the marble, there were many wounds on his body. In order to run faster, he left his the honor of war on the ground when he get close to Sherald, Eliot jumped and threw a punch.
The punch missed Sherald's neck by almost 10 inches. Sherald, who had not been able to summon his weapons, wanted to congratulate this.
Sherald: Congratulations, if your fist had come to my neck, you would have won-
"THE HONOR OF WAR"
The sword appeared in Eliot's hand again, and its sharp surface was on Sherald's neck!
Nell, who was watching all this, just had to say "Wow."
Eliot: Are you happy?
Sherlad: Sort of, draw your sword.
Eliot: No, give up.
Sherlad called for his guns and put them on Eliot's stomach
Eliot: Your bullets weren't visible. You didn't shoot at me, you faked your desire as if you were shooting from a distance. It's very difficult, so your energy used a lot and your weapon consumes too much. Give up!
Sherald smiled and said, "What if my energy hasn't decreased?
Eliot said in response to this, "Then you will become a student killer within the borders of Eden."
Sherald laughed and said, "Okey, ı give up."
Eliot calmly recalled his sword and took a deep breath.
Sherald: Why did you want to leave the arena?
Eliot: There is no need for unnecessary duels. We're going outside the walls soon, I need energy.
Sherald continued to speak with a proud expression on his face.
Sherald: You seem like a tough and fearless person, young man!
Eliot was just about to say "Thank you" when a announcement was made:
"Due to the lack of security staff, students need to return to their dormitories for today."
Eliot gave Sherald a small smile after this announcement and left with Nell as the arena turned into the library again.
Eliot: The lack of security in one of the most important buildings in the city?
Nell: I don't know....
Eliot: Anyway
Nell: Does it hurt?
Eliot: No
Nell did not expect a cold conversation, she was upset and did not take out the healing gel in her pocket, she just said "Okey"
——————————————
*1 week later at outside the walls*
Some of the students who had acquired new abilities had teamed up to hunt their first creatures.
A beautiful girl with black short hair and hazel eyes was watching the others alone. he noticed that 3 young people were looking at him.
The young people were whispering among themselves, while looking at the girl.
"Dude, that girl is baddie."
"Go invite her to our team, ı want her."
"You know, let her join our team."
One of the young men approached the girl and said, "Do you want to join us?"
"No, I wouldn't," the girl said.
The teenager continued:
"My name is Allen and I am a reinforcement user. Believe me, our team would be happy to see you in it. I will help my friend with frist monsters."
"What is your name, young lady?"
The girl replied by saying, "My name is Soria."
Allen activated his weapon.
WEAPON!!
The Midas touch
When a person uses Midas, he calls for a pair of gloves that can withstand hard blows, and he can instantly neutralize the abilities of the person he touches and learn their information. If the glove holds an attack, it transmits it exactly back.
Allen grabbed Soria's right shoulder very thightly. Midas activated am ability and revealed the information of her Weapon.
WEAPON!!
The Creation
The weapon does not have any physical form. This weapon makes the user able to create an armor or weapon suitable for the abilities and class of the person she is communicating with, depending on how much desire, time, strength and attention the person spends, ıt reveals an higher quality equipment. User cannot create an equipment for herself.
Allen: Can't you fight?
Soria: I can fight!
Allen: You saw my weapon didn't you? No one here is my equal! If you can't fight, I'll protect you.
Soria looked desperately at the ground and remembered how terrible the creatures were.
Soria: The creatures are very scary.
Allen: Then ı take it as a yes-
Soria: If I make you some equipment, will you leave me alone?
Surprised, Allen got angry, and just when he was about to get angry, one of his friends shouted.
"DUDE, COME QUICKLY, THERE'S GOING TO BE AN RAID OF CREATURES COMING HERE!"
The moment Allen heard about the creature raid, he looked at Soria and smiled. "This is the price of your reckless attitude." he said. delivering a desire-enhanced kick to Soria's leg.
Soria writhed in pain and said, "Please don't."
She cried for a while and wanted to run away, she stood up with her firm leg. After jumping a few times, she turned around and saw that the creatures were getting very close.
She said, "God, please save me." and began to pray, putting his hands on the ground.
"Wasn't that said in slightly more dramatic situations?"
Soria looked in the direction from which the sound came and saw a half-naked boy.
The boy approached Soria and said, "I listened to your talent. Can you make me the heaviest and longest sword you can?"
Soria turned her head in the direction from which the creatures coming and said "Can you get me out of here if I make you the sword you want?"
The boy nodded his head approvingly.
Soria got to work and finished the sword in a few minutes. The creatures were about to reach the position they were in.
"I've finished your sword. Please take me away from here"
…
The boy who picked up the sword from the ground started waving it left and right. Soria clearly saw that the sword was getting faster with every swing.
"What are you doing? We have to run!"
The boy turned around while waving the sword and said, "My name is Leroy, Does it sound familiar?"
Soria remained staring at the person in front of him in shock. Was he really the person who died in a monster attack 10 days ago??"
