The weight of the Blow that Pix Dealt reverberated through the entirety of Krio’s body, He had struck at him from below, with the little that Krio could do he managed to block the blade of Pix’s scythe with his own. Pix was powerful though, much stronger than him, the force alone sent Krio into the air, he closed his eyes to refocus, but the attack continued, into the air Pix launched himself with enough force to rise above Krio, Pix swung down towards his opponent. With his eyes closed in the darkness of his mind Krio could feel his body tumbling through the air, he opened his eyes to find Pix in the middle of swinging down on him, a sharp pain struck the side of his body, the backside of Pix’s Scythe which held an axe’s blade had dug itself inside of him,

“ARRGGGHHH”, krio shouted out in agony, his body rocketing to the ground, a deadly thunderous sound rang through the air the trampled dirtied grass parted into earth and mud where Krio’s body had landed, Blood splattered on the ground from the wound of his that he had just been given, Pix landed on the ground, his excited smile had began to fade away,

“and here I thought you would be a bit of fun, but you barely entertained me”, pix voiced his disapproval, Resting his weapon on his shoulder, he walked, slowly over to his battered opponent, the shine his eyes had grew dimmer as he saw Krio’s state clearly. Krio struggled to his feet, gripping his own scythe tight, his mind a fog, and his bones rattling and hurting, he couldn’t even stand on his own,

’ he is to damn fast, all of that happened before I could think properly’, krio thought to himself, ‘but’, he thought as he smirked,

“i’l…..i’ll… tell you…...this much”, Krio said, panting, “you’re gonna regret fighting me”, Touching the Crescent moon symbol etched into his mask, it began to glow, illuminating a purple light, Krio moved his hand from his side, the blood that spilt from the deep gash quickly began to stop, the ripped skin mending itself back together without so much as a scar. Krio straightened his posture, lifting his scythe to fight once again,

“you just became a lot more interesting, in all the time I’ve lived in kainon, lived in Dracht and been on adventures, I’ve never seen a reaper’s ability allow them to heal”, Pix said, drawing even closer than before, he keep looking directly into Krio’s eyes drowning out everything else, “tell me your secrets”, Pix said,

“good thing it isn’t my blessing, this is just a trick I picked up in flanesa”, Krio said, Pix let out a hearty laugh holding his head to the sky,

“I can’t believe those stuck up puritans, trained someone from the outside, the elves must be going senile from living so damn long”, Pix said, “well then, it’s a shame Amon is about to lose a precious little puppet”, their blades clased together once more, the scythes pushing against each other, sparks escaped off of them, Pix leaned in drawing as close as possible to Krio’s face,

“enough talking, let’s finish what we started”, pushing krio back again, he lunged towards him. The divine energy began to swell around him, pouring itself onto Krio,

“Mis ia nekrios, thaine val fila tiris mys, Mis ia nekrios eta tinga miha Nekri, Mis ia Nekrios seca astrir kan'nor ati'kila mys, sana eta tiris nekri'na” krio chanted

(As I am death, Thaine’s will flows through me, As I am death all thing must die, As I am death even time cannot outrun me, soon everything will stagnate)

“DEATH’S WILL: STAGNATE”, Krio shouted, his eyes shining as bright as possible, Pix swung his scythe, this time hitting nothing but air, “where did he go, he shouldn’t be able to dodge my attacks”, Pix thought to himself,

he felt a searing pain go through his shoulder, as he peered to his left he could see Krio’s scythe piercing his flesh,

“what the, where did this come from”, Pix said aloud, but as the scythe left his shoulder it disappeared,

pix was shocked by this, but all his years of fighting in dungeons and all over the world, gave him valuable experience, pix closed his eyes, calming himself before he got to worked up over something he didn’t understand, until he was able to sense it, he could feel krio’s divine energy, it was coming from behind him, directed right at his neck,

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

the two scythe connected, krio’s bouncing off from it’s own force, “that’s an interesting power you have there, however it isn’t the first teleportation power I’ve gone up against’, Pix stated, however krio stood there silent, the faint glow still in his eyes,

“oh gone silent now have we, lets see if I can make you start talking again”, pix shouted as he charged forward at Krio once more ,

back with Aluric

With his eyes locked with yumi’s, Aluric leaped from the railing of the tower, they both were on a collision course for each other, as he descended on to Yumi, Aluric had a smile on his face, he couldn’t help it, force of habit, or, his true desires, but he smiled every time he saw yumi, though once he was aware of it the smile quickly vanished.

‘they aren’t the only one that can act as bait’, Aluric thought to himself,

“ALURIC”, Yumi shouted, rocketing towards him, within seconds they had collided,

“was this you’re plan all along, ambush me from where I command my troops”, Aluric said, the force and speed at which Yumi collided into him with pushed both of them back into the tower, large splinters of wood and metal scraps exploded everywhere from the force of their impact, the sound so great it pulled the attention of soldiers from both sides, the debris flew over the battlefield, striking down friend and foe alike. The top of the tower doubled over, now empty it fell to the ground, crushing any who stood beneath it,

“of course she decides to cause as much damage as possible”, Amon said, the body of a rather large soldier from the dracht army had fallen on him along with some of the large pieces of the logs that made up the tower, pushing the fresh corpse off of him, amon heard a loud snap, the poor soldier had been impaled twice, once through his stomach and another through one of his eyes, cheers could be heard from his soldiers at the destruction of one of the enemy towers, but Amon knew this battle was far from over.

back with Aster

Aster tugged on his hammer, the chain still wrapped tightly around it with the sword still stuck in the ground,

‘well It isn’t budging’, Aster thought to himself, as yet another knife hurled it’s way at him, he leaned back letting the knife fly pass his face,

“you’re getting predictable, serene”, Aster said, his face straight as an arrow,

“why are you even trying to kill me, you’re the one that ended things between us, I don’t get it”, Aster questioned,

“yeah you still think this is about us, no, it’s about you”, she retorted, darting off again, throwing even more knives his direction,

“you really don’t get it do you, this is why I prefer men like, Master Aluric”, Kiara stated,

“what’s that suppose to mean ?”, Aster asked,

“it means that He wouldn’t be so caught up on losing to the same person over and over again, or he wouldn’t be so pathetic as to be wanting the validation of the higher ups in his clan so much so that he would continue to work for them even when those same people beat and torture him when he messes up“, Serene stated,

“you….should not have gone there”, Aster said loudly as his voice wavered, the air around him began to shake, and the earth began to tremble, his divine energy began to violently pulsate and expand rapidly, his green eyes began to shine, as veins pushed against his skin all over his body, and his skin began to turn a dull grey tone, and his hair began to turn white,

he tugged on the Warhammer once more this time with one hand, sending Kiara flying into the air, Aster Grabbed ahold of the chain, plunging kiara from the air into the ground below, Kiara landed, blood spilling from her mouth as she made contact with the ground, serene and the other girls stood there in shock, kiara rolled over on to her knees, as she struggled to get up,

“Don’t”, she huffed,

“just stand…..there”, she continued huffing,

“Attack”, she cried out,

Serene and the other girls launched themselves at Aster, at the sound of Kiara’s command, as if possessed by her words,

As Aster stood there his mind flashed back to when Yumi taught them this technique for Blessed people,

“visualize yourself surrounded by a liquid, it can be anything”, yumi stated,

“okay what’s the point of this”, Aster asked,

“you will see soon” Yumi answered,

“but I just”, Aster began to say,

“Aster just shut up and let her teach us”, Levant said to Aster, his eyes closed, listening to yumi attentively,

“as I was saying, now picture yourself sinking in the liquid, as you sink push your Divine Energy to its limit, and when you do reach your limit, keep pushing”, yumi instructed,

“i will say this only once never visualize yourself sinking pass your neck, in this state if you do, you may end up crippling yourself, or worse losing the connection to your powers “, Yumi warned,

Aster let out a sigh, he looked around as serene and kiara’s other followers pounced on him,

“i know what she said but, here goes nothing”, Aster said, letting out a sigh,

Crouching down, getting ready to Attack,

“UNHOLY WRATH: OKASHE”, Aster shouted,
