Chapitre 56: The Backstabbing 'Brother' [War arc (7)]
"I'm t-telling you i-its dangerous! I'll attack if you don't retreat..."
"Tsk. An A ranked swordsman should have more authority in his voice..." Kolt said, "Get out of the way kiddo is you don't wanna die tonight. Don't you know who I am?"
The warriors protecting the Vice president's office, looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. Why would they know someone like Kolt?
Seeing their reaction, a vein popped up on his forehead. Even the warriors of his previous guild didn't recognize him? It had been a few years but heck Johnny, Aydan and Azyriah had been members of the first batch of warriors the flying swords, along with him. If it wasn't for the good for nothing 'President' of their guild and that backstabber Jake, they'd still be working here. Taking revenge on them was one of the reasons that had agreed to destroy the guild once and for all. Annoyance washed over his face just by thinking about the incident that nearly destroyed their peaceful life. Anger suddenly blossomed in his chest.
"Uh uh?" The warrior in front if Kolt hesitated for a moment before charging on him.
But before they could do so, the warriors guarding the entrance and the other personnel standing to the side started to float up into the air at the same time. A mysterious force was moving them against their wish, they had no control over their body. Their startled eyes headed towards the person standing behind Kolt, who they guessed was the culprit...
"Do you know who I am?" Azyriah whispered as she threw the warriors at the door leading to the vice president's office.
KA-BOOOOM!!!!
"HEY! Don't go on stealing my targets." Kolt gritted his teeth at Azyriah who walked into the office like nothing happened. One of the warriors, was still conscious and tried to attack Azyriah. Who effortlessly dodged all of his attacks and used her powers once again to throw him out of the window, the guy kept screaming as he fell towards his doom.
''Stupid idiot! Why the hell do they keep attacking when they know they'll fail? I didn't think they'll be this loyal to this guild.'' Kolt shrugged his shoulders.
"Hmm... looks like the guy died in vain, there's no one here." Azyriah calmly spoke, "Bet Johnny and Aydan already found them."
Once they were successful in breaking into the building, the team got divided into three - Johnny and Aydan, went to look for the President while Azyriah and Kolt went to find the vice president. Arnold and Nathan were tasked with cleaning the lower floors, because that's where the A and B ranked warriors were at.
"Try using your sensory magic again?" Kolt suggested. "Because it seems that you're calculations were wrong... there are way less enemies than you said before."
Azyriah shook her head and replied, "I can't. You know it takes me an hour to collect enough energy to use that ability again. But you're right... the mission is sailing too smoothly. Let's head towards Johnny and Aydan, complete the mission and head back."
"Going already? But the fun is about to begin." A voice came from behind.
Azyriah and Kolt simultaneously turned around to see a man leaning against the door leading to the vice president's office.
"Hey Jake, it's been a while." Kolt smiled, "How's the guild been treating the backstabber?"
"Backstabber? I think you're talking about my loyalty for the guild. After all my efforts saved the guild from collapsing." Jake smiled back.
"Save the guild? Oh please, just save your crap for later after we beat the sh*t out of you." Azyriah prepared to cast her ability.
"Geez, is this the way you treat your ex?" Jake shrugged his shoulders, "Looks like I'll have to teach you everything from the scratch, my dearest slave."
Kolt's gaze was solemn as he clenched his fists. A black flame began to flow down his arm, the veins popped up on his arms. The next instant, a shockwave was sent out in all directions, as leaped at the person who he once considered his brother. Jake barely dodged the punch, but the might of his fist shook the entire floor, the shockwave shattered the glass windows. The entire building began shaking like crazy. The intense killing intent from Kolt seemed to have frozen the space around him. But Kolt didn't stop there and kept bombarding his cannon like fists at Jake who kept dodging them all.
"Did you get slower, 'brother'?" Jake smirked as he dodged yet another punch. "Maybe I got faster? Either way it's been fun but now I'll-"
Before Jake could complete what he had to say, a mysterious force slammed him against the wall next to him, knocking him off-balance.
"I never thought you'd be foolish enough to attack two S ranked warriors alone." Azyriah said as she joined the fight.
"Who said I'm alone? ...zydag nissha milaak!" Jake started chanting in a weird language, and all of a sudden, the entire floor turned dark as if they were all inside a blackhole filled with nothingness.
Fearing the worse, Azyriah tried to subdue Jake with her powers but some kind of magic was protecting him from her attacks, as her attacks didn't have any effect on him. Seeing this, Kolt powered up his fists once again and was about to charge at him when he felt like something was grabbing onto him. He looked down and saw many hand-like extensions were tightly grabbing onto his legs, restricting his movement. The same thing was happening with Azyriah, she was unable to move as well.
"Your powers would be a great addition to my army..." Jake laughed hysterically.
"Our powers? We'll never joi-" Azyriah gasped as hundreds of creatures, monsters and humans alike, came out of Jake's shadow and and slowly surrounded him... but something felt wrong, they were no ordinary summons, "OH MY GOD! HE... HE'S A NECROMANCER!
The Jake, Kolt and Azyriah remembered, was an ordinary pyromancer¹ and not a necromancer. Necromancers were a rare bunch, but they were not much of a threat as their summons were generally weak and they headcount was generally low, but something was different about Jake. Not only his summons were all ranked at B or above, the amount of summons he could control was insane!
"KILL THEM!" Jake shouted, and immediately the monsters charged at them, but before they could do anything, the entire floor got covered in ice.
