95.65% PATCHED SOUL / Chapter 22: Uncontrollable Part 1

Kapitel 22: Uncontrollable Part 1

Walking the dark road, early in the morning, the 3 young men went out to the base of the ones who beat up Lorenzo. All their spirits were fired up. They've been holding back their anger for 2 years.

They never talked to each other on their way. Only the insects and some owls hooting were the sound you can hear.

After walking further along the eastern road, they reached a mangrove forest. It took them 2 hours of walking to reach this area. The sun started rising from the horizon, and the clouds had an orange hue.

The two, Riggs and Bowyer were adventurers/bandits who were notorious for stealing and extorting young adventurers. They prey on poor merchants that can't afford an escort.

The 3 walked on the stone steps placed on the muddy surface of the mangroves.

Riggs woke up early, standing right next to the window naked. Looking at the sun rising from the east, feeling the warmth that it brought. On his bed was a prostitute that gradually came here by boat to serve them every night.

Right in the center of the mangrove forest was a wide clear space. Rock and sand were dumped in this area making it sturdy and not muddy. As for the high tide, it can't reach this place.

Many birds perched on these mangroves, and the winds here are gentle and fresh which they loved. The prostitute on Riggs's bed woke up and looked at his bare butt, slapping it.

"Come here hon, let's have a morning exercise." The prostitute offered.

Riggs turned his head grinning, "Still not satisfied aren't you?" he said jumping on top of her. Grinding hips as both their bare groins rubbed on each other. He bit her lower lip, chin, and down to the side of her already red neck.

As they were about to enjoy their morning, the woman's moans were cut short.

Boom!

A deafening blast hit one of the huts, its roof burning in flames. A commotion ensued, and in panic, the prostitute pushed Riggs off her. She grabbed her clothes, and she ran away towards their boat followed by her naked companions.

Riggs annoyed by the sudden interruption, grabs his shorts heading outside.

"Who got these massive balls to try and disturb us?" shouted the angry Bowyer.

When Riggs got out, he saw his comrades in their robes holding their swords. In the front stood 3 young men.

"Yooo Mama!" rebutted Marco.

This triggered Bowyer, eyes turning red and popping veins on his neck, he rushed towards Marco's direction.

Seeing this situation, Riggs's first reaction was to fire a fireball above. It was a move called, -Rain of Fire-.

Bowyer who was rushing towards Marco threw a punch. Right when Bowyer's fist was about to hit Marco, Marco move back and jumped above his feet on fire propelling him higher. He then met the -Rain of Fire- Riggs shot with his feet, kicking it back to Riggs.

Bowyer who missed Marco turned his back about to rush again. A strong impact hit the back of his head, knocking him down to his knees.

"Never turn your back to your enemies," said Sheen as he looked down on Bowyer.

Bowyer's face turned red in anger, his teeth gritted. "You will regret that!"

He flailed his hands at Sheen, which Sheen dodge as he swiftly ran to the left. Bowyer who lost his mind in anger thoughtlessly followed behind, throwing stones or anything his hands holds.

Riggs wanted to warn Bowyer, but the –Rain of Fire- was kicked back at him. He performed a back flip dodging the fireball that hit the ground. Smaller fireballs scattered in a fan shape burning the huts around him.

Marco who was falling down punched the air 3 times. Fire fists bombarded Riggs as he was being pushed away.

"They are trying to separate us." He thought. Riggs knowing something is wrong rushed towards Bowyer's direction, planning to turn the battle into 2v2.

"Brave of you to try and get revenge against us," Glen said while pointing his sword in Lorenzo's direction, two of his comrades took each side surrounding the now lone attacker.

"This time we won't play anymore, it's now life and death." said the other one.

Lorenzo looked at them. His smile was robotic as it twitched, without saying anything he posed. Bending his knees, holding the cork of his gourd he shouted, "Totem of Death!" Straightening his arms and spreading his hands.

A magic circle appeared below their feet, and a totem of a squared-headed man appeared. Wary of the unknown, the three fall back away taking their defensive stance.

Waiting for something to happen, was the biggest mistake they made. It was not some Totem of Death, but the Totem of Wellness that don't cause any harm whatsoever. All were just bluffs, dirty mind games.

Psst! Psst! Psst!

Distracted by the glow of the Totem of Wellness, 3 Neurotic bees bit each of them. Before they could do anything, their bodies lost their senses unable to move even a finger.

Without wasting time, Lorenzo punched the one on his right on his solar plexus. Stealing that person's knife, he threw it to the other one on his left grazing that person's side of his neck.

Glen saw all this happen in a blink of an eye. When his senses returned back, he gripped his sword and swung it to the rushing Lorenzo.

He looked at Lorenzo like a fool, when Lorenzo turned his back in the direction of the sword. "Lemme see if your back is made of metal," said Glen.

Lorenzo only grinned in his direction. To Glen's surprise, a third limb appeared on Lorenzo's back catching his wrist. Lorenzo then twisted his hips, he threw a full-powered right uppercut on Glen's jaw.

Thud

Glen collapsed on the ground, flatly unmoving. Lorenzo then picked up Glen's sword.

"Thanks, Caeish," commended Lorenzo.

"M'kay." replied Caeish the spirit who he merge with Lorenzo.

The person whose neck was grazed by the knife sneaked on Lorenzo's back. Holding a cloth with his right hand, pressing it on the wound, while his left hand is about to strike Lorenzo's back.

Pssst!

The knife a few inches away from Lorenzo's back, stopped. Another Neurotic bee bit on that man's forehead. By a sudden reflex, Lorenzo swung the sword slashing the man's neck, cutting off his head from his body. Blood sprayed on Lorenzo's face, and the body of that man dropped on the ground lifeless.

The feeling of the sword cutting cleanly into that man's neck was gut-wrenching. He covered his mouth having the urge to puke out of disgust when he heard Akaen's laughter.

"Hehe"

"Something's funny?" Lorenzo asked.

"Nothing, hehehehe." Akaen laughed childishly.

Lorenzo ignored his laughter. Unknowingly his disgust went away. Lorenzo, whose holding a sword stabs Glen, and the other person who he punched in the stomach. Blood flowed down dyeing the stone ground red. Akaen's laughter grew rampant but not overbearing to Lorenzo's ear.

Finishing the three on his own, Lorenzo headed towards the direction where Sheen baited Bowyer.

.

Meanwhile above the skies, an old man was riding a staff flying over the mangrove forest.

Explosions, flame versus flame clashing to one another, and some disturbed birds flying away after some mangrove tree falls down.

Curious the old man, flew down to observe the situation. He hovered unnoticed as the fighting between Marco vs Riggs, and Bowyer vs Sheen was getting heated.

"Hmmm, interesting fellow." said the old man, his eyes gleaming.

Kapitel 23: Uncontrollable Part 2

Balls of raging fire flew around, falling down the ground or burning a mangrove tree to charcoal. The once muddy ground was sucked out of its moisture due to extreme heat. Fireball after series of fireballs, the battle is at a stalemate.

Marco bathes in flames like a fire god appearing in this mortal realm. His body heat was getting more intense as the fight progressed longer and he started breathing flames out of his mouth.

Riggs skilfully forces the fight into range combat. Pushing Marco then retreating away shooting fire arrows for distractions, he controls the fire in efficient ways. Arrows, walls, boomerangs, and other variations, made Marco respect Riggs' versatility.

"You're good at playing with fire. Maybe you'll like to work with me? Food and any expenses, I'll take care of it." Marco offered.

"I don't work for anybody," replied Riggs as he again avoids getting near Marco.

Marco looked unaffected by Riggs' reply. He was only kidding and never really thought of hiring Riggs.

On the other side is a battle of muscle vs muscle. Bowyer with his bulking muscle threw punch after punch at Sheen but not landing any hit.

Sheen, on the other hand, lands scalding punches due to having slime properties on his body. His hands and hair turned into spiky black fur, it's the Arboar Alpha's beast essence. This fur increased his durability and speed.

Due to having the slime as his main beast essence, he can now consume other beast essences of any type. Slimes class are neutral and were able to blend with other beast class.

After catalyzing the slime's beast essence, he had another available slot to consume beast essence which he did on the Arboar Alpha. Sheen's attacks now have the slime's corrosiveness, and the Alpha's speed and durability.

Whenever Bowyer missed his hits, the rage inside him grew along with his power. Sheen noticed the change too late.

Bang!

He blocked the attack but was still flung away, his back hitting on the tree.

"I see, he's like a berserker. The angrier he gets, the stronger he became. But he is no longer thinking straight, all I need is to hit him with a counter." he thought.

As the two battles went on, Lorenzo whose eyes staring blankly, approached the back of the raging Bowyer. The third eye on his forehead opened with its pupils turning black, staring directly at Bowyer's head.

Harmless black flames appeared on top of his head. Bowyer got muddleheaded, and his thoughts unclear became disorganized. His raging emotions were gone for just a second, but it was enough time to cut off his defenses. Lorenzo's entire Neurotic bee appeared, 6 bees flashed and bit on Bowyer's relaxed body. Although not harmful, 6 bites from a Neurotic bee still cause Bowyer to have seizures.

This change of matters disrupted the battle. Riggs who saw Bowyer kneeling with his foaming mouth was greatly alarmed. He saw Lorenzo and remembered the one they beat up.

As Lorenzo started to get closer to Bowyer, Riggs fired a fire arrow toward Lorenzo. But it was stopped by a single bee.

Boom!

Lorenzo commanded a Baleful Bee to meet Riggs' attack. Upon contact with the fire arrow, it exploded rendering the fire arrow useless.

"You don't need to help me, Lorenzo. I almost got him," said Sheen.

Lorenzo proceed to face Bowyer like he did not see or hear anybody. He pinched Bowyer's cheeks forcing his jaw open, pulling the second Baleful bee out and feeding it to Bowyer.

Another lifeless body fell down to the ground. Riggs hoarse shout and the looks of Sheen and Marco were in shock. Sheen did not know that they were here to kill. Marco on the other hand felt something was wrong.

Sheen who's near Bowyer was sprayed on his body and face with blood and some gray matter. He wiped it off with his shaking hands, looking at the mushy brain matter spilling down.

His head spun and his stomach retched. Sheen involuntarily puked on the ground, as he kneeled with his two hands on the ground.

The large body of Bowyer lost its strength, half of his head now gone scattered around the area. Only the lower teeth and tongue remained intact. Lorenzo bathes in blood and brain matter, staring blankly at Riggs. He started approaching him like what he did was not a big deal. His heavy steps crushed Bowyer's eyeball with his foot.

His eyes turned red, blinded by anger as he gritted his teeth. Riggs summoned a huge water column. Ether of different colors sparkled like the stars above merging with it.

Riggs who was orphaned at birth grew together with Bowyer. He treats him as his big brother whom he looked up to. Together with the other orphans, they became comrades being able to live fairly than before. Stealing is what they grew up with in the slums of Nonoria. The consequences never crossed their minds, because they believe it is alright to steal from anyone who's doing well in life. Because those who live comfortably don't know how hard their life is.

The water column slowly formed, sharp icicle teeth, horns made of wood and metal, and a burning flame inside the water around it. This is Riggs' trump card, -El Draco- a boiling dragon formed from different compounds of elements. Using all ether left inside him, Riggs fired this single-use attack.

Lorenzo unaffected by the current events summoned the last 3 Baleful bees he got.

The –El Draco- flew to where Lorenzo stood. Its mouth opened wide, preparing to shred him to pieces. Out of nowhere tiny bees went inside the dragon's mouth as Lorenzo's commanded.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

The three Baleful bees exploded inside the dragon's head. Steam gush on it, halting its movement. When the steam cleared out, the dragon's head vanished leaving its long body intact.

The boiling water column crashed at Lorenzo. His wing tattoo on his back shone brightly as his back muscle constricted, Caeish -Core Manipulation-. Lorenzo's head ducked between his crossed arms taking a defensive stance. The third eye opened once again looking at Riggs, now bleeding and its pupil turning red.

This is one of the two abilities Akaen gave Lorenzo when they merged. Regular black pupil summons harmless black flames that impair the area where it appears. Meanwhile, when the red pupil looks at a target, it links the target and the user's body. Any damage done to the user, the target will also experience it. This is Akaen's power as a spirit of curses.

The headless dragon of now boiling water attacked Lorenzo's body. His arms, shoulders, and body were scalded, his skin peeling off due to the force the dragon generated when it crashed into him. Behind Lorenzo, a magic circle appeared, it was the -Totem of Wellness-. All of his ether was poured into the magic circle minimizing the damage of the headless dragon.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaargh! " Riggs violently screamed.

Receiving the damage caused by the red pupil's curse, patches of seared skin appeared on Riggs' body. The red pupil only shares damage not healing. And unfortunately for Riggs, his seared skin worsen until the water dragon's strike finished, bearing the full brunt of his attack. Void of ether, Riggs who can't handle the pain anymore passed out.

Lorenzo who still has small burned spots left that the -Totem of Wellness- didn't fully heal, picked up the sword he carried with him. Slowly walking to Riggs' side, he was dragging the sword to the dried mud. Lorenzo's eyes focused on bare-chested Riggs, his empty mind thoughtless, just Akaen's voice repeatedly saying, "Stab him! Stab him! Stab him!" Follow by the childish laughter of Akaen.

Using his two hands, Lorenzo raises the sword to his chest and stabs.

*Whoosh*

An old man appeared out of nowhere, wearing a bright green robe, a wrinkled face, and a bald head. Using his staff, he tapped it on Lorenzo's sword turning it to dust.

"Your friend here has an unstable soul." The old man sends a wisp of ether to Lorenzo's forehead. Lorenzo collapsed head-first on the ground.

"His psyche soul has problems he needs to suppress. I suggest finding some ways to control his emotions, or he will become unstable." The old man then flicked 2 pills each on Riggs and Lorenzo. The pill dissolves on contact with their skin, little mushroom sprouts popped out of their burned skin. Those mushrooms sucked on the damaged skin, as they helped to slowly regenerate the skin back to normal.

"May I ask what sir's name is?" Marco asked while checking on Lorenzo. Fortunately, he's fine.

"It's Sigvard the Root." The old man introduced.

Sigvard pulled a colorful rope, a magic item that securely wraps unto something. He threw it and the rope tied itself to Riggs.

Sigvard then started hovering above the ground. While Riggs' tied at the end of Sigvard's staff perfectly balanced like a beam. "This fellow is a fine specimen, I'll be taking him," he said before flying away, vanishing out of thin air.

Sheen came to Marco's side. His face was pale as snow. He looked at Lorenzo lying face down, and commented, "Is he really that violent?"

"It's my first time seeing him do this. Maybe the old man is right." Marco said.

Sheen was skeptical of Sigvard's remarks. "Can we trust him?" he asked.

"Let's ask Lorenzo first before we conclude things," Marco suggested.
