blood starts to stain the ground while the atmosphere of the surroundings gets heavy and even more got intense as the random cold wind blows and sweep to their skins
" I think the last one was a bit troublesome to handle..."
" we will never know if we never try "
"i agree with you lieutenant brald... in any means actions speak louder than words "
then the two lieutenants dash like a pair of a lion towards Cynn with an intimidating bearing, leaving a quiet amount of dust behind their trails
then Brald jumped and proceeded to give a kick with his right foot, but Cynn just took a step back: for him not to get reached by the incoming kick on his stomach, but he never anticipated a lightning-fast Chris swiftly making way underneath Brald; while he was in the midair
Chris gave uncountable slashes when he got near Cynn. Nevertheless, Cynn just moved in left and right to dodge all these slices and block the remaining attacks with his chopstick; after that, he immediately made a distance.
When Chris stopped all his slashes, Brald landed on his back and sprang back again to make a spin in the air to get momentum and immediately slam his spear right above the head of Cynn.
Despite their collaborative effort, Cynn just moved slightly on the side, barely evading his spear with an inch of distance.
In response to all their synchronous assaults, Cynn chooses to counterattack this time and darts his chopsticks on Brald's forehead; fortunately, Chris positions his sword in time and blocks the incoming chopstick on Brald's behalf to save his life.
-ting!!-
the chopsticks were made in a sturdy but lightweight metal, so it made a spark upon its contact on lieutenant Chris sword's
when Chris successfully obstruct the chopstick, he swiftly slashes Cynn again, intending to turn him in multiple pieces of dices
Cynn responds to this with a retreat and jumps backward.
" you know little night walker i really want to slice you in multiple parts with you're annoying smile "
"tehehe"
"you bastard!"
Chris was really furious with how Cynn was facing them in battle like a kid leisurely walking in the park and dodging all their attacks like all this thing was just a plaything.
Chris moves forward again to catch Cynn, and Brald throws his spear in sequence to the movement of lieutenant Chris. after he loses his spear, he summons dozens of it inside his dimensional ring again.
While all the spears are in the midair, Brald kicks all of them to shoot earnestly at Cynn; even though it looks like that Brald only randomly kicks all the spears in truth, he aimed them meticulously with great precision to contain and minimize the swift movements of Cynn.
The spear passes through at lieutenant Chris one by one and shoots at Cynn without any consideration. He dodges them as they continuously come at him. Cynn was too busy in avoiding all the spears and he didnt notice that lieutenant Chris was already at his back and didn't waste any time to miss this kind of opportunity.
While Cynn was not looking at him, he immediately aimed his sword at Cynn's neck at the speed of light. Yet when his sword was so near at his neck, Cynn disappeared without any trace.
After lieutenant Chris missed his attack, he looked left and right, wondering where his enemy went.
" OVERHEAD!! "
Chris immediately looked above his head in response to the shout of Brald; he bent his knees a little in that short time and made a quick retreat before the feet of Cynn slammed on the ground that was initially intended for Chris; luckily, Brald made a warning in time.
"thanks Brald "
" dont mention it you also save me there back then "
"tsk he was a complete monster! "
"yeah it was so obvious that he was on another league -huff, huff- "
"can we defeat him? "
"we never know until we try! "
"huff, huff... again?!"
"yeah lets try again "
when the dust settles from the kick of Cynn, the appearance of a boy who was perfectly fine without any taking a sweat all this time happily look at the two of them
" mister, I thought we will going to play hide and seek."
Cynn asked at them while they were far apart in the distance.
"aghh, this dumbass, did he really think that we were playing? "
complained by Chris that only Brald who could hear
"HIDE AND SEEK MY ASS, YOU FOOL"
Chris shouted before Running to assault Cynn one more time.
to the disappointment of Cynn that he cant play hide and seek, he decided to unsheathed the dagger he stole to the spies he massacred from before and pointed it at the running Chris
' This is dangerous all this time. The only thing he did was to become passive. did he decided to go on an offense now?'
Chris hesitated a little because he knew that the Creature they were facing was a fearsome foe that could play around in their skills like they were just a pair of hooligans in the streets.
" damn, did he decide to fight back now?"
Brald also noticed the sudden changes in Cynn; all this time, the Boy they were fighting didn't emit any type of presence. They couldn't even hear its heartbeat or breathing; he was just like a total nothing when they were in onslaught on him.
However, this time. although Cynn still didn't emit any kind of presence, Brald could feel now the chilliness crawling to his epidermis down to his spine by just looking at the young figure of Cynn that still wearing cheerful and innocent smile.
"Chris be careful and doubled your senses, he somehow give a different vibes from before."
" I know i could feel it "
After brald spoke, he followed Chris to give immediate support if he got in a tight situation and summon another batch of spears on his Dimensional ring.
He let them spinning in the midair while coming towards the place where Cynn is standing.
Then Brald jumped again and went along with his spinning spear in the air; they even got a pass at the running Chris and arrived at the top of Cynn.
but before Brald and his spear could land, Cynn jumped at him and encountered him midair while carrying a dagger, and he got to pass through at Brald and his spears; like they were just a mist that never actually existed on his way
However, when only a second passed, all the spears started to crumble in multiple slices before they could even land on the ground.
Brald, upon interaction on the floor, thin slices appeared on his clothes, then afterward blood started to gush out like a fountain, and Brald helplessly lay his body completely.
"did he copied me just now?"
Chris stopped running in shock and intently watched Cynn, who was still in the midair, before turning his gaze at the bloody mess Brald.
" we need to retreat for now "
he made a quick judgment to preserve his life and picked up Brald, that was lying on the floor without minding if the blood would stain him after he saw how capable that monster was to kill them. he even copied his technique
"If we will going to fight him a little further, it's just like we will just going to give wings to a lion,"
Chris realizes that seeing it one time is enough for him to acknowledge that the nightwalker was just absorbing their skill as their fight progressed, and it was like they were allowing him to grow even more.
" brald, Stand up. We need to go now and recuperates your injuries "
Chris supports brald to stand up and vigilantly watch if Cynn will make a move and take advantage of their situation.
If that happened, Chris was ready to set aside Brald and face this monster heads on by himself and never hesitate to put his life on the line; to land a blows that can surely give fatal injuries to the nightwalker even if he sacrifices his life in return.
' a normal beast can turn into a ferocious monster if it got corner '
" brald, can you walk now? "
while Chris was supporting him, he noticed that he got lighter all of a sudden, and Chris looked at him and saw that he had already gained his consciousness and was defending himself now
" I'm sorry, lieutenant Chris "
"What are you blabbering right now its all fine we need to retreat first before that monster chase us "
" Im really sorry lieutenant... i rally appreaciate you but i hope you will understand me."
-puskkk-
"why?"
