*********** ************** *********** **************** **************
A girl’s voice resonated through the silent battlefield, it was a familiar voice which Keniro had heard before.
??? : “ ENIEL !” The girl yelled worriedly.
Listening closely to the voice once again, he recognized the voice of his cousin. With all his might, he sprinted toward the place from where the voice came from, what he saw there was a girl identical to his cousin from his previous world.
However there were some differences from her previous appearance, her hairs and eyes now had a differents colors, moreover she had two black cat ear and a tail.
Keniro felt shocked and doubtful as he saw the young girl who's in her hands were a bloody black sword.
Both of them stared at each others, unable to comprehend what was going on.
Shina : “ K-Keniro…?” She hesitantly said, not sure if this was real.
Hearing the girl call him by his name, he was now sure that it was indeed the same girl as back then.
Keniro : “ W-What are you doing here, where are my parents? Are they here with you ?!” He asked overjoyed.
When he was summoned to this world, he was the only one brought here; his parents and Shina were left behind so he didn’t know what happened after he was transported here.
But the girl definitely knew all the answer he was looking for… Yet something felt different about her, but he ignored this feeling and pressed further.
Keniro : “WHERE ARE THEY ?!” He screamed as Shina didn’t answer.
Shina : “ They are dead… All of them are.” Shina replied as she fearlessly looked in his eyes.
Keniro often thought of his parents from back, there after witnessing the tremendous comet destroying building and reducing them to ashes; he had expected them to die.
Yet here she was, still alive and alone.
Keniro : “ Why, why did you survive instead of them? And how did you survive? You sacrificed them right? They were summoned as well, but you took their places. YOU KILLED THEM, AM I WRONG ?!” He screamed as he began to imagine a story on his own.
Shina : “They weren’t summoned, neither was I; but in a way, I was the cause of their death.” She coldly sneered
In the first place, the destruction of her previous world was because of Shina and her foster family so it wasn’t truly wrong to say that she was the cause of their death.
Keniro was astonished by her behavior. From his perspective, only a few months ago he was still beating her to a pulp and treating her like a punching ball… But now she was answering back and arrogant, nothing like how she used to be.
Keniro : “ You bitch… I’ll help you recall who I am !”
With those words, Keniro rushed at Shina and delivered a strong vertical slash, but Shina easily received it by blocking it with Kiel, not budging the slightest as she received his sword. However, a small liquid flew from his sword toward Shina’s cheek; a red liquid.
Keniro’s sword and pants were almost fully dyed by this color, the color of blood.
At first, Shina didn’t notice it as she was shocked by Keniro’s presence in this world, but after noticing it a question appeared in her mind.
‘Whose blood is it ?’
Shina had followed Eniel’s tracks by following the soldiers corpses she left behind her, but a few moments ago, she arrived at the end of the tracks and Eniel wasn’t in sight; it was why Shina was worried.
On this battlefield, the army’s only opponents were her and Eniel; it was the reason why all of the soldiers swords were still clean and as good as new as they hadn’t been used… yet, only his sword was tainted.
As she imagined the worst case, easily pushed Keniro away, Shina ran in the direction he originally came from, completely ignoring him.
It only took her a few second to arrive at the arena where Eniel’s duel took place, with her body at the center and barely breathing.
Shina : “ E-Eniel?...” She called her as she slowly approached her body.
Hearing Shina’s voice, Eniel used her willpower to resist the pain and slightly lift her head, looking at Shina with a pale face.
Shina : “ ENIEL !!”
She ran toward Eniel’s body and took her in her arms as she dropped Kiel on the ground, but as she saw her pierced stomach, a mix of emotion formed inside her.
Eniel : “S-Shina…” She muttered as she used all her strength to lift her right hand and touch Shina’s cheek.
Shina : “ Heal” Using her Ancient Language, Shina tried to heal her.
Slightly closing, the wound began to heal before a weak white light came from Eniel’s wound, reopening it.
Shina : “ W-What is that?! Heal, Recover, Cure, Restore !”
Shina used all the words she knew that could save Eniel, but none of them worked as the white light kept appearing and opening the wound.
Keniro : “ So you know her, huh? Too bad she will die, my sword make recovery impossible! Kahahahahahaha!” Keniro haughtily said as he laughed, thinking of how much Shina was hurt and that she deserved it for killing his parents.
Kerser : “ SOLDIERS, CATCH HER AND BRING HER TO ME... ALIVE.” Kerser ordered as he licked his lips.
Although they felt bad for obeying the order, the soldier walked onward. But as they approached her, Shina’s hairs slowly turned black and a dark aura started to emanate from her body, a pure black aura.
The aura made its way toward the sky and covered it with somber clouds, from those clouds slowly fell snow… A pitch black snow which announced the start of a disaster.
The ground around Shina slowly changed color as if its life was being drained, yet only the place where Eniel’s body was wasn’t affected.
Seeing this, the soldiers halted only a few meters away from her, hesitating to move, afraid of what was occurring.
Shina : “ Repulse” A cold voice in another language was heard, right after the soldiers around her were propulsed backward at a tremendous speed, crashing into a dozen of soldiers before finally stopping and dropping dead.
Slowly standing up, Shina glared at Keniro who was now shaking as his instinct told him a single thing...’GET OUT OF HERE’
Not only Keniro felt this, the soldiers were all frozen from fear, they originally all came here while thinking it would be a simple war and that there would be no danger, yet this night they felt like they came in hell.
As for Kerser, he had already run away, making his way through the soldiers, it didn’t take long for Keniro to do the same.
At the sight of Keniro running away, Shina took Kiel who was on the ground and as if she shared Shina’s thought, Kiel was also emitting a condensed dark aura.
The previous sword turned into a two meters long Guandao, a long spear which ended with a blade instead of a spike.
Looking at the direction in which Keniro ran, as tears fell from her eyes Shina glared there with murderous red eyes.
Shina : “I’ll kill you!" She screamed with a voice which would have scared any living being before running toward him.
On her road, she mercilessly cut through the soldiers body like it was paper, with each slash of her spear she killed twenty soldiers. The form of her spear made it perfect to fight against a large group.
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Shina : “ EXPLODE! SHATTER! FREEZE! BURN! CRUSH!”
Using her Ancient Language in repetition, various disasters happened around her, an area were completely frozen while another was burning like hell, in once the soldiers were crushed by the gravity and in another the soldiers body shattered like a tomato.
The place couldn’t be called a battlefield anymore, it was now a cemetery in which the troops completely forgot about the battle and were only running away in front of this terror. Most of them were already shocked by the spell which occurred only a dozens of minutes earlier, but the fear brought by Shina already outmatched it.
At each swing of her spear she became faster as obscure scale formed on her skin, her cat ears transformed back into her normals ones and dragon horns emerged on her head. Her tail also transformed back into her lizard one but kept the black color.
Shina’s sadness and anger made the darkness inside her leak from her body and the reservoir which was holding all her power.
“HELP… SAVE US… DON’T COME HERE… STAY AWAY… SHE IS FOLLOWING THE HERO!” Multiple screams from the resounded in the field.
Hearing the soldiers cries, Keniro also started to run faster and faster, surpassing his limits thanks to his fear.
When he first came here it was as a hero, hailed by the soldiers as the savior of humanity, but now all around him they were cursing him, telling him to stay away from them as they realized that she was following him.
Keniro couldn’t understand what was happening, he was originally there to enslave Aorlan but here he was, in this supposedly ‘easy’ mission he had to run away from the monster chasing him whose identity was his cousin.
On the other side of the battlefield, Refalos as he saw the army’s condition decided to launch an attack on Theristid’s army, making sure to attack in the opposite side of where Shina was fighting as he also feared the monster there.
The confusion from Theristid’s soldier was far higher than Elorgia’s one as they had already seen the death of many of their comrades, they didn’t even try to fight back.
On the other hand, inside the city the atmosphere was the opposite of the one reigning on the battlefield. The mysterious emergence of a being defeating alone Theristid’s army made them cheer, some peoples in the city even began to call it ‘God’.
Among the inhabitants of this world, the demihumans are the only ones without any protecting god, leading to them being persecuted by other races. Awaiting a god to protect them, they felt like the time had finally come.
Yet in this festival like atmosphere, only the king felt like he was going crazy.
Refalos had ignored his orders and led a major part of the army to battle, the current situation would lead Aorlan to a true war against Theristid and would end up with the death of the royal family.
If Refalos came back alive and the one fighting for them was indeed the god they were waiting for, Refalos would be acclaimed as a hero for fighting by the god’s side and he himself would be treated as a coward who secluded in his castle while ignoring the peoples.
In both situations, the king would lose all that he possessed, all he could do was praying for Refalos’s death.
Meanwhile on Shina’s side, she was getting closer and closer from Keniro who was running with all his might while infusing his mana in his legs.
But in the end Shina was still getting faster and faster as he was close to collapsing, what kept him conscious was the deep fear who fueled his survivals instincts.
10 meters… 5 meters… 3 meters… Keniro now was in Shina’s range, with a thrusting attack, Shina pierced through the body of three soldiers, but a bright white light stopped her in her movement. It was Siena’s spell, the same one as the one who immobilized Eniel.
As she was immobilized, unlike with Eniel, Keniro didn’t attack but continued to run away as he used this chance to escape.
Shina’s red eyes momentarily shifted to Siena, throwing a sharp glance which completely froze her mind. The pressure of Shina’s stare made her body shiver and convulse.
Shina : “ Stay out of this.” She ruthlessly said before gathering her mana around her, forming a dark tornado, completely consuming the light.
Siena’s restraining power was an ability bestowed by the Goddess of Light to the Holy Lady. It wasn’t a magic from which a human being could escape and was even able to immobilize a dragon, yet as she saw her spell being dispelled so easily, she couldn’t help but fall on her knees.
As she looked in Keniro’s direction, he was already more than a hundred meters away from them. The moment she thought that she had managed to save the boy’s life, Kiel turned into fog before changing into a two-meter long bow.
The bow looked like it needed an inhuman strength to pull the string, yet as if it was nothing, Shina pulled the string as far as she possible before forming the arrow.
The arrow used couldn’t be qualified as an arrow anymore, it was closer to a ballista ammo formed with wind mana.
Shina : “ PIERCE!” Using Ancient Language as she released it, the arrow pierced through the soldiers bodies without slowing down the slightest and with an incredible speed, flew in a straight line toward Keniro.
Looking behind him, Keniro saw the arrow aimed at him. The arrow’s speed was too fast, he couldn’t dodge it and could only see it moving toward him as if it was in slow motion yet, the moment right before the arrow touched him, a blue light enveloped his body and teleported him away. It was the Goddess’s magic.
Not only once, but twice did Keniro closely escaped from death, fuelling Shina’s anger even more, but she didn’t have the time to think about her target as above her, the dark cloud disappeared as large blue lightning came at her.
Shina : “ GHHHHHHH”
The lightning’s strength forced Shina on her knees as she tried to resist it, using all the mana she could to form a shield, protecting her body.. But as seconds passed, the sound of her
shield crackling could be heard, but luckily the lightning’s strength quickly faded before finally disappearing.
Shina : “ Huff….Huff...Huff…”
At the end of the attack, Shina was exhausted and her breath was heavy; but she didn’t have the time to rest as a second lightning far more powerful than the first one came down from the sky to her.
Shina : “ GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH”
The shield completely broke as it came in contact with the second lightning.
Shina : “ SHIELD! PROTECT! REINFORCEMENT!” Reinforcing her body and defense, Shina tried to endure the lightning, but burn mark began to appear of her body who couldn’t resist to the lightning’s power.
As she felt all her strength leaving her body, Shina closed her eyes, recalling the moments she had passed with her sister, her character, her voice, her face…
The lightning broke through all her body’s defense and was about to enter her body as fell to the ground however at this instant she felt someone hold and lift her.
She was being carried in someone’s arm, under the blue lightning’s light all that she could see from this person was its spiky white hairs, red eyes, and a smiling expression.
