Chapter 28 - A murderer without any morals

"You!?" Satoya yelled out as he recognised the voice, Zykar emerged from the bushes revealing himself, he also ripped off his sleeves, revealing the fact that both of his arms are prosthetics. Zykar immediately blasted him with energy beams from his prosthetic arms, but Satoya evaded the blasts and charged at him.

"Why did you command them to kill her?!" He demanded as he swung at his arm, but due to the arms being a prosthetic, it didn't do any damage except damaging the arm slightly, but Zykar swiftly countered by landing an uppercut sending him back. 

"Still mentioning that child?! Haha, how cute!" Zykar laughed. Satoya got up from the uppercut, and casted multiple red and teal slashes, although he is incapable of picking which energy he would like to use, the situation is too desperate to hold back. The slashes were slow, as Zykar easily outran them, but Satoya caught up and casted a red slash at point blank causing an explosion. 

Satoya's mastery over his calibre isn't too much, but due to it being a desperate situation and him being driven purely by emotion and instincts, he subconsciously needed to only hold out his arm to send a Aribolian energy related attack.

Satoya was knocked back from the explosion, and hit his back on a tree, suddenly he felt an aching sensation in his arms, a pain he felt never before, "Did that do anything? And what is this?" He thought to himself, as he was trying to come up with a plan.

"It was my mistake, I wasn't aware of Ashina's blade being an ancient relic." The voice in his head said to him, apologising, "Let go of the blade and run!" The voice also urged. 

"No! I must defeat him now or never." Satoya said as he knew what the man did to the girl was unforgivable, as there might've been saving for the girl, and the girl might've had a family or relatives that could possibly be alive, but that possibility is now gone because of the man. 

Zykar walked out of the smoke, with an arm being blown off. "Curse you, these prosthetic weapons cost me hundreds and thousands of Alikurs!" He said completely angered by the damage. 

"If one arm is gone this will be easier-" He thought before Zykar took out a square with a button on it, and once he pressed the button, the square transformed into the prosthetic arm, essentially making it useless. 

Before Satoya reacted, Zykar lunged at him, and slammed his prosthetic arm into the ground causing a small crater, but he reacted faster than he had anticipated, and stabbed Zykar in the chest. 

He coughed up blood, completely oblivious to what had happened, "You got prosthetics for your arms, yet you are still human and are not indestructible!" Satoya mocked as he kicked Zykar from Ashina's blade. 

The forest heard a loud scream of agony, and cursing, as Zykar was squirming on the ground left and right trying to cope with the pain from being stabbed. "Who the hell is Satoya fighting, but we should probably take care of these guys before we help him." Edward thought as the rest of the group were surrounded by 4 G.A.A. captains.

"What you had done to the child is unforgivable, may you rest in hell." Satoya said as he slowly walked up to Zykar who was still screaming in agony. And before he swung Ashina's sword at him, a spear with a bright energy bladed tip struck the ground in between him and Zykar. 

Satoya looked up and saw a figure who was nearly going to drop kick him, but dodged the attack, and saw a long haired man in a pointed knight helmet, while also wearing black and orange armour, the black colour being from what the armour was forged from, while the orange was the energy that was powering the armour. 

"It appears you requested my service, sir." He said as he kneeled down to Zykar who was laying on the floor, and the man's sleeve appeared to open before revealing a syringe with a liquid inside that resembled Rejuvizyms.

"You bastard-" Satoya attempted to swing his sword, but the man in the pointed helmet quickly reacted by grabbing the spear from the ground and slashing Satoya in the chest, sending him back. 

"You are late, slacker!" Zykar scolded at the man, the man in the pointed knight helmet turned toward Satoya, and introduced himself politely, "I, rank 4819 of the War department of the G.A.A. Lauris Alberial, shall end your life at this instant."
