Chapter 22: Prudence
Darick groaned as he pulled himself out of the metal to stand up but in a mater of moments the runic man sped up to him and tossed him very high into the air so much so that he didn't seem to be coming down anytime soon.
Tral's brows furrowed as he formed a huge block of steel above that runic man only for it to continue to hang in place while the lady with the staff giggled "such amateurs, this will be fun" as she said this the metal block Tral created was sent flying at him with such speed that he was barely able to dodge in time.
"Enough with the games Hexa. We should capture them as soon as possible. I have been told by my master that we shall be deeply rewarded for these two siblings" The man in the white robe ordered as he floated up to the top of the bus to face the three remaining members of the group.
Gara stepped forward saying "I got this one, Arc should deal with the mage and I hope you can deal with that freaky tattoo guy brother"
The mage called Hexa laughed as she floated in the air "We've got a fierce one here Prudence, she thinks she can actually fight you.. how amusing"
Gara stretches out her body growing three times her original size with her whole body being covered in blades right before she pounced at him. He merely side steps her and delivers a punch into her bladed body who's impact creates a temporary crater in the air before her body is sent soaring into the surrounding forest.
"Gara!" Arc yells going towards her direction but gets stopped soon by the mage who floats in front of him with an energetic bubble surrounding her "he he he didn't you hear your friend say that you were going to fight me now he he" she cackles as she casts a hexagram in the air in front of her.
"Get out of my way witch!" yells Arc who was freaking out about Gara's safety. Sparks jumping around his body and vibrating in the air around him.
"OoOoo someone is angry that his little girlfriend got tossed aside like the trash you are" Hexa teased as her spell quickly filled with power that would rival Major Tomson's original hexagram (before it was increase with the help of the general) but it was her words that caused Arc to burst out into passionate rage "You can't talk about her like that." He spoke in an eery tone as his eyes crackled and spilling out with lightning.
Hexa only laughed more until suddenly stopping in frustration as her spell started to loose power and destabilizing. The energy being forcefully pulled out of the hexagram into Arcs eyes as well as the surroundings (mostly grounding) until the hexagram crumbled due to lack of mana.
Hexa screamed as she received the backlash of her spell being destroyed and was left in shock before the energy built up in Arc's eyes, exploded out towards her like a torrent of waves pushing their way to freedom from his control.
Hexa was slammed into the dirt by this energy while writhing across the ground in convulsions. The man in white Hexa called Prudence appeared in a blink of an eye behind Arc before he could regain his sanity and sent a quick chop to the back of his head knocking him out cold in an instant.
"Hmmm interesting, maybe I'll keep you as well" Prudence contemplates out loud with little regard for everyone else as if nothing but his will matters.
This woke Tral up who was the only one remaining. He automatically unleased explosions next to the two remaining enemies before charging at the runic man at full speed. He formed a long sword as he leaped after the still stunned man but his blade was caught by the bare hand of Prudence who appeared between the two completely unphased by the explosion.
Tral immediately let go of the sword, jumping back right before the blade shattered into shards of metal in Prudence's grip. Tral retreated while continually unleashing explosions around Prudence who simply ignored them as he calmly advanced.
Despite Tral's best effort, Prudence nearly caught him but was suddenly attacked by what can only be described as kraken that crashed into him at great speed. It's tentacles wrapped around Prudence's body trying it's best to choke him out.
Meanwhile the runic man had regained his composer and had started to grow in size and muscles (similar to the previous gang leader) while charging at Tral in rage.
Tral responded with explosions at the mans feet causing him to trip on his face yet there was no real damages to the runic mans body.
Prudence doesn't remain wrapped up in the arms of the kraken for long before a blast of energy comes from his body ripping the tentacles apart leaving the kraken in an oozing screaming mess as it tries to reform into a more human form despite the pain only to have Prudence walk up to it firmly placing his foot on it while pressing down with an oppressive force that seemed to come from his aura containing Gara stopping her from shifting out from under him.
Tral placed in a desperate situation by the two enemies makes a dire move. On one hand he creates a giant pillar that falls onto the now massive tattooed man to stop him while he concentrates on how to deal with Prudence who suddenly finds himself in the path of a rapidly moving heavily armored bus.
Tral quickly grabs Arc unconscious body and launches off in a jetpack to catch the still falling Darick. Prudence hastily dodges the bus releasing Gara who hitches a ride on the bottom of the bus to make an escape before receiving her own jetpack from her brother.
Prudence launches a palm strike that ripples the air sending an energy palm towards the rapidly escaping group only to hit several walls the keep appearing behind them destroying many before losing power.
By the time the runic man tosses the exceptionally heavy pillar off of him, the four have already sped off into the distance.
"Trash" Prudence eyes the man with disgust than goes over to kick the still convulsing Hexa that sends a wave of energy which seems mix with and calm down the violent energy assaulting her.
"Letting a bunch of untrained welps get the better of you.. your teacher would be ashamed Hexa" Prudence says condescending.
She floats up into the air to reorient herself before crankily replaying "How was I supposed to know he could take the mana right out of my spell and shoot it back at me? That's fucking unnatural, not even the highest level casters can manipulate another persons mana."
Prudence stared at her with cold eyes before speaking "That is for the higher ups to decide. All will be reported. Now we finish our job transporting these scum to Barrute to be dealt with as my master wishes.
