บท 93: 93-The Rite of Battle, The Realm of Skirmish Part Three
The General gazed upon the Three Ladies in front of him. He held his sword tightly as he breathed deeply. He didn't take a single gaze out of the Ladies as he prepared himself. Persia seeing his action, smirked as she spoke with a teasing voice. "So, who'll be the one that will deal with him?" Statera looked around the bloodied field and shook her head. Ego turned her head towards Persia and asked. "Can I?" Ego wanted to try fighting the strong General as her skills weren't that polished, Especially when she could easily use her Monster Form.
"Well, I guess you can fight him. Though, I hope that you don't accidentally kill him." Persia said with an aloof voice as Ego nodded in understanding. She then stepped forward as she held her two daggers under her fingers. She looked upon the General with her Golden Amber Eyes as the two of them began their staring contest. The General already began his sword stance. A Defensive Sword Stance against the Dagger type.
"It seems that this General is skilled," Statera muttered while staring at the General. A Defensive Sword Stance against a Certain weapon was a Useful skill to have. The only problem is that it's mainly focused on one weapon type, which means that the swordsman might have a problem facing other weapon types that weren't within the scope of the Defensive Technique.
"The guy had passed through a lot of wars. He should be a good training teacher for Ego." Persia said while gazing upon the Two Figures standing upon the opposites of the field. They were staring at each other as Ego slightly moved her leg. In an instant, Ego disappeared and turned into a Shadowy Figure heading towards the General.
Seeing Ego disappearing in front of him, The General prepared himself as he began looking around the area near him. Ego instantly appeared right behind him as the General quickly swung his sword to his back. Ego dodged the General's sword with a spin as she tried to stab her daggers towards the General's body. Unfortunately, the General dodged the stab and quickly retreated to gain space.
The Sound of Mental clanging against each other echoed within the bloodied field. General and Ego were fighting and seemed to have no notice about the world around them. Persia and Statera continued watching as they analyzed the battle under their own eyes. It was interesting, Especially when two skilled fighters fought against each other by using their pure skill.
'She's a lot better than expected.' The General thought to himself as he continued swinging his sword towards Ego. She effortlessly dodged the General's sword and slashed her dagger towards him. The General blocked it once again as they continued throwing their weapons against each other.
'She's stronger with her body and skilled with the dagger. How does a monster like her exist in this world?' The General continued thinking onto himself as he seriously was fighting against the girl in front of him on a thin thread. The two of them continued fighting as they got faster and faster.
They created small shockwaves as the wind danced between their blades. A Dust engulfed the two as Statera and Persia gazed upon them. They waited for the winner to get revealed as Two Figures stood against each other with their blades on each other's throats. Persia raised an eyebrow as she never thought that the fight would end up in a draw. "That was a surprise."
Ego stood calmly as the General found himself taking a large amount of air. Sweat was all over his skin as he found himself tired. The General panted as his sword dropped onto the ground. Ego stood in front of him without any reaction as she turned her head towards her Sister. Persia then spoke with an aloof voice. "Let's take a break, Wake him up later."
The General found himself in a dark cage within his consciousness. He couldn't remember anything other than the Three Ladies that destroyed his army. His name was Julius Khan, The Retired General of the Empire Albion. He had gone through many wars from the Seas, Heavens, and Earth. He was a Living Legend. Though, he got ordered to check an Ancient Ruin found within the outskirts of the Empire Albion.
Bringing a small local army that was untrained, He began his journey towards the Ancient Ruin only to find it gone. Though he found three ladies near the Ancient Ruin, and they were strange ones. With Julius's experience, He was sure that he could count the numbers of those that could fight against the three ladies under his fingers. He wanted to start a diplomatic talk though the ladies were violent and seemed to be crazy war maniacs.
Julius began looking around the darkness as a bright light began to shine over him. It quickly engulfed him as he smelt a delicious order with his nose. Julius then opened his eyes which revealed himself on the ground. He could see a grill in front of him, and it seemed that the ladies were cooking. He began looking around and tried to move his body. Though, Julius realized that he got tied up.
'No rope can stop me.' Julius thought to himself as he began moving his limbs to free himself. A while later, Julius still couldn't escape from the ropes. 'How?' Julius questioned as he couldn't help but get shocked by the strength of the thing that held him. He was a strong man, and he could even bend metal. 'An enchanted rope?' Julius thought as it might make sense for an enchanted rope to be problematic.
He stopped moving like a worm and calmed himself. There was no need to panic. From the current situation, It seemed that the ladies had already left to find food or go somewhere. He was too old for such things. Why does he have to be a prisoner of war maniacs? He would rather die than betray the Empire Albion.
"Sister, The Prisoner has woken up." The General felt a chill on his spine as he heard a Monotone Voice. He turned his head and saw the girl he fought. Ego looked at the General with an emotionless face and began preparing for their food. Statera and Persia arrived as they held Giant Boars over their hands.
"These creatures have a lot of similarities though they are a lot weaker than the Terran Boars counterpart," Persia spoke with a calm voice as she dropped the Giant Boar onto the ground. Statera nodded and replied. "This Test is too strange and detailed. Why do I feel like we got transported into a new world?" Hearing Statera's words made Persia think about it and nod.
"That makes sense. Since the Soul Core is a Personal Dimension that is outside of one's reality. It might have brought us to a new world." Persia spoke as Statera sighed and continued. "You make it sound easy. Even with my Soul Core, It's still implausible for me to enter other worlds." Statera couldn't help but get amazed at Persia's soul core. The Ability to travel worlds was interesting.
Persia then walked towards the General as she noticed him pretending to be asleep. He smirked and slightly kicked his body. "Augh..." The General got forced to wake up despite Persia slightly kicking him. Her Slight Force was still a lot stronger than a horse kicking him. The General opened his eyelids and saw Persia gazing at him with her Golden Amber Eyes.
"It's time for us to ask some questions, Mr. General," Persia spoke with a calm voice as her Eyes exuded a Pressure of Domination. The General felt his heart wildly beating as he felt his cold sweat dripping from this forehead. The General cleared his throat as Julius couldn't help but get afraid of Persia's presence. It was the first time he had felt this feeling. Even the strongest of those within the Continent didn't faze him.
"Don't be afraid, Human. Answer our questions, and you would live long." Statera spoke with a soothing voice as she looked at Julius with a Cold Stare. Persia shook her head as she smiled and asked. "Anyway, What is your name, Human?" Julius couldn't release a single word from his mouth as he couldn't answer Persia's question.
"Do you want me to ask you again?" Persia still had a smile plastered on her face. Julius then answered Persia's question. "My name- My name is Julius Khan." Julius couldn't get his words straight when facing Persia. It was as if he was staring at a Monsters, A Monster that could effortlessly destroy countries without any problems.
"Hmm... Julius Khan, Where are we?" Persia continued to ask with her soothing voice as Julius immediately answered. "Continent of Debilis, Albion Empire, Western Border Outskirts." Julius's mind broke apart as he revealed their current Location. Persia nodded to herself as she could feel any lies, which meant Julius was not lying about their Location.
"A New Continent outside of Piksyon. A Human Empire. A New World." Statera began mumbling to herself as she thought about the Current World. She knew a lot about the Realm of Piksyon, Her Knowledge about it was impressive despite the Mysteries within Piksyon. Such Mysteries were hard to uncover, which meant that Statera couldn't explore the Realm of Piksyon as much as she wanted.
Even though Statera was one of the strongest beings within the Realm of Piksyon, There were still numerous things that would be annoying or dangerous towards Statera. Statera stopped mumbling as Persia continued asking Julius. "What is your Job in the Albion Empire?" It was a simple question, and Julius answered without any resistance. "I'm a Retired General of the Albion."
"A Retired General? Someone as weak as you?" Despite being weaker than before, Persia, Ego, and Statera were monsters in the Realm of Piksyon. The Trio's strength lies beyond the use of weapons and skills. Persia, Statera, and Ego could flatten the mountains, split the ocean, and throw the plains onto the heavens. The Trio were simply monsters beyond relief.
Persia shook her head in disappointment after hearing the power level of the current world. "Mysteries lie within each world. So underestimating it would be foolish." Statera spoke with a Calm voice as Persia turned her head towards the Heavens and saw the Bright Sun. She nodded in agreement with Statera's words as she stood up and walked towards Ego, who completed preparing for their food.
Julius slowly regained his consciousness as he began looking around erratically. A second later, Julius gritted his teeth as he managed to realize that he got controlled to releasing information to the Trio. He then shouted towards the girls. "What did you do to me!?" Persia turned her gaze towards him before turning it back to her food. The Trio then ate the Boar meat cooked by Ego.
The Trio continued eating as they didn't care about the shouting General right beside them. After eating their food, Persia stood up as she began stretching her pale arms onto the air. Persia smiled as she had a good time gobbling the food Ego cooked. She then looked around as she spoke with a calm voice. "The Information gathering is complete. Though, the bastard is rather late."
A Thunder echoed within the Heavens as Statera smirked. The Trio's body then lit up with an Illuminating Silver Light. Julius had to cover himself from the bright light as he heard the last words of the ladies. "I hope we meet again, Julius." The Illuminating Silver Light dimmed as the area found itself under a strange silence. Julius stopped screaming as the rope he got tied in slowly disappeared.
Meanwhile, A Random Forest within the Continent of Debilis. A Bright Light illuminated as the Trio continued the Realm of Skirmish. Though they never knew what their enemies were until a dagger flew right through them and hit a tree right beside them. Persia, seeing the Dagger, didn't have any change of expression. She stared in a random direction and spoke with a calm voice. "Assassins?"
