Chapitre 15: Chapter 15: Chipped wings
Yamato cursed under his breath as he tried to stop the bleeding from what was now a stump rather than an arm or extremity.
Unlike Arjuna and Kashin his body wasn't completely bathed in natural energy for years on end, thus he didn't have the almost godlike regeneration they enjoyed.
Arjuna quickly walked over to Yamato his eyes filled with concern for his Lord and father figure.
"Lord Yamato! I can use my energy to help heal you!" Arjuna didn't wait for Yamato's approval but rather used his hand to try and transfer his energy over to Yamato.
He didn't realize this was incredibly mindless as this could throw off Yamato's balanced ratio of natural energy and magic.
Yamato slapped him yelling in annoyance very out of character for him, While they were arguing the Nekomata from earlier slowly opened her eyes.
Kashin seeing Arjuna and Yamato distracted with Yamato's injury rather than stepping forward to help Yamato, he wished to take advantage of this opportunity.
In Kashin's eyes, this was the first time in his life he had stepped out into the outside world, it only furthered the hatred and disdain he felt for Yamato and the annoyance and disgust he felt towards Arjuna for being his loyal lapdog.
How could Arjuna be okay with being caged up like an animal in that dark damp laboratory for decades on end? He would rather die than go back to this place after he had tasted the beautiful fruit of freedom.
Looking at the injured Yamato, Kashin believed this was a gift given by the heavens to him and he would cherish it.
"Gravity control…Weightlessness." Two pairs of black bat-like wings sprouted from Kashin's back as he decreased the weight of gravity upon himself and boosted his speed beyond high-class levels.
With one single flap of his wings, a sonic bang went off, he disappeared before the others could even react, flapping them as fast and as hard as he could he ascended to the skies and beyond the clouds tasting the freedom away from Yamato's clutches.
He didn't even bother glancing below him just continuously flapping his wings with all the effort he could, Finally after a lifetime in darkness and confinement he had finally escaped from Yamato's clasps.
He felt elated, tears of happiness appearing in his eyes from the taste of overflowing freedom as the clouds whizzed by him.
This was a blessing from the heavens above and he'd take advantage of it and cherish this freedom he had finally achieved.
What 12-year-old child would prefer being confined in a dark underground prison rather than the beauty of the world outside?
He had thought he'd finally done it before he heard a single word that made his heart sink to the very bottom of his stomach.
"Fall." As if the heavens disagreed with Kashin a pressure of a thousand suns fell upon his back slamming him straight below to the hard earth, like Icarus who flew too close to the sun, Kashin suffered a similar fate.
He came crashing to the earth like a meter or a bird with its wings cut off, A huge crater appeared around him a hole deeper than buildings.
"AHG" Kashin yelled in pain while an involutory amount of blood dripped down his chin his eyes were bloodshot and reddish, Dozens of his bones were twisted and broken in various agonizing ways, Some of his bones poking out against his skin like a horrifying piece of origami.
His wings pressed against his back they too were broken and mangled, His eyeballs looked behind him and rage filled his heart that the red-haired bastard was the cause of all this.
Arjuna stood behind him his hand raised his eyes filled with disgust and disdain, While Yamato slowly walked up from behind him, The nekomata woman from before limping beside him.
She had woken up just a second ago from the sonic bang of Kashin's wings, Wondering what had happened and why such a ruthless boy had decided to abandon his master was he not willingly following the red-eyed man?
Kashin swore that if he escaped today he'd torture Arjuna worse than Yamato's worst nightmares.
"Lord Yamato…Let me bring justice to this backstabber," Arjuna said his voice deep and filled with glee finally Kashin had messed up finally he could eliminate this bastard once and for all.
Yamato didn't respond merely walking up to Kashin and crouching beside him, The stump of an arm was now not bleeding as much.
"…..Tsk tsk tsk…betraying your father? Seems like I haven't disciplined you properly…." Yamato whispered stroking Kashin's broken wings, Arjuna had silently removed the gravitational pressure upon Kashin.
Arjuna had goosebumps all over his body it had been years since Yamato had that look in his eyes.
"You seem to be very proud of these wings of yours Aureolus…" Yamato said much to Kashin's confusion and fear, Yamato's hand wrapped tightly around one of his wings to which Kashin cringed.
A devil's wings were very sensitive especially the soft tissue in it…Not to mention how injured and broken they were already.
His eyes widened as he felt a pressure upon them, His bloodshot eyes locked onto Yamato's devilish red ones which were filled with wrath.
A sickening tear followed by screams of agony resounding through the forest, The scream gargled somewhat by the blood in his throat.
Fujimai flinched hard, tears of sympathy appearing in her eyes, The pain of such a thing she couldn't even begin to conceive, considering how agonizing it was to merely step on her tail not to mention having it brutality ripped out.
Arjuna looked away a tingling feeling upon his wings he didn't feel pity but even he was horrified.
"… This hurts me so much more than it hurts you Aureolus but as your father I have to do this…" Yamato muttered throwing the ripped wing to the side as Kashin below continued to scream in deep agony, The wound already healing but the pain never went away.
One slow agonizing tear after the other till all four of Kashin's wings were torn just deep scars atop his back reminders of the pain he was inflicted with.
Wings were a very precious thing for devils representing their pride and beauty something each and every single devil cherished from old to young, To have them brutally ripped off one can imagine the hate festering.
An act of childish rebellion and a will for freedom turned into a torturous time he'd remember for his lifetime.
By now Kashin was semi-unconscious due to the pain as his mind was just underneath too much pressure to go on.
Deep scars that dripped blood onto the earth below, his olive skin was now a mess of blood dirt, and decay.
Yamato didn't stop rather putting his good hand in the middle of Kashin's back, as he muttered under his breathe what seemed like gibberish or a demonic spell.
A black diamond-shaped dot appeared underneath his palm, imprinting itself into Kashin's skin, around the dot appeared red lines that slowly covered from his mid-back to his upper traps all the way to the right half of his forehead, It went below as well wrapping around one side of his waist and then going down his right shoulder all the way to his palm, It stayed like this for a couple of seconds before being reduced to the same black diamond pattern.
A seal much like Arjuna's but it seemed more whole and more powerful as if complete rather than a half-finished product.
"I've been too merciful and laid back these past few years….This vessel is to be mine soon…" Yamato muttered pulling his hand away, Unknown to Yamato Arjuna and Fujimai Kashin had held a trace of consciousness hearing what Yamato said.
Arjuna didn't need to be told as he used a teleportation circle to teleport all of them to the nearest base.
Kashin was still semi unconscious on the now cold laboratory floor the spots where his wings were still bleeding profusely.
Fujimai against her better judgment kneeled beside the boy an overwhelming sense of pity arising for him.
Using a youjutsu spell she tried her best to cover the wounds and speed up the healing process.
Yamato ignored it leaving her as he needed to find some way to replace his arm, The vessel of his was ready but he wasn't.
Arjuna however protested this immediately "Hey! Don't help the traitor He will recover fine on his own." He grabbed Fujimai and tossed her to the side like a rag knocking her unconscious with some gravitational force.
2 years later
"Kashin I want you to visit the House of Naberius some branch family member wants to present me with research retrieve it I've already told him of your coming," Yamato said softly by now his arm had been fully recovered albeit the skin on it was a bit paler than his regular skin tone.
The reason he wasn't worried that Kashin would use this opportunity to escape once more like two years ago was simply because of the seal With it, Kashin could never escape his grasp.

Next chapter and things will start speeding up from here on out somewhat. And nvm I decided to not nerf the powers cause tbh to be able to mess with the fundamental laws of nature is OP no matter what I do so.
Oh and also the seal is kinda of like Kawaki's karma seal but with different coloring and deeper it goes down to his ankle as well.
