《Reborn as a nine-tailed fox [Rewrite]》The fight
Advertisement
It was early in the morning and Raz was standing on the Snow Field. He walked around with slow steps, when he suddenly stopped and turned around. In front of him, he saw Anna there, dressed for a fight.
"The sun is still rising. Why are you here?"he asks her with a calm voice.
"I came here to talk."she replies. He looks at her face and then the hilt of the dagger, which is sticking out from behind her back.
"Here to talk...with the God Slaying weapon of Lighting?"he says and looks back at her."Well whatever. Lets talk."
He takes of his mask and hood, revealing his long platinum hair tied into a tail and a long red streak of hair: braided and tucked behind his pointy half-elf ear. His right eye was crimson and slitted, while his left eye gray and with a normal round pupil.
"Say whats on your mind, Anna."
"What happened to you?"she asks in a weak voice.
"Really? Can there be any dumber question that that?"he asks himself, while shaking his head. He then points at her and says"You happened. You stabbed me in the heart. And the worst part of it was your expression. You looked at my like I was some filth."
"I-i...."
"You don't get to say anything right now. Your betrayal weakened my mind, letting her corrupt me. Thanks to you, I have this eye now."he says while pointing at his right eye.
"I'm sorry for that. It's just...."
"It's just what?"he asks in a loud voice"It's just that you decided to kill your husband? Is that it?"
"No. Of course not."she replies"It's just...."
She goes silent and seeing her like that, he says"I don't know what I honestly expected from talking to you."
He then takes the sword in his hands: left one holding the sheath and the right one grabbing the hilt. He takes in his stance and then dashes forward while unsheathing his crimson sword. Reaching her, the sword is already in a slashing motion, but instead of blood spilling when he strikes at her, a sound of metals clashing can be heard instead. Anna had pulled out her dagger and blocked his attack. What follows next, is a shockwave, which destroys everything around them.

"Ah."he says to himself and jumps back, sheathing his sword.
"At least your senses haven't dulled that much."he says in a mocking tone.
"What that supposed to mean?"she asks.
"Yesterday, the harrow hit the target and wasn't stopped before. In the past, you were able to catch an arrow with just two fingers."
"I was just tired."she answers
"Oooh really. Did I keep you up? Did you get reports of a man with a white mask going around, massacring towns?"he asks her in a mocking tone, while taking a hold of his hilt again.
"So your minute cooldown is over."she says and focuses her gaze to his hands.
"So you still remember."he says and dashes st her. Their blades collide and create even more violent shockwave around them. This time, the ground they stand on gets cracked right underneath them and destroyed around them.
Once again, he jumps back and sheaths his sword.
"Once again, you have an one minute window to kill me. So why won't you do it. Finish what you started on that day twenty years ago."he tells her and spreads his arms out, leaving him open.
"I never wanted to hurt you. I was confused then and didn't know what to do. The dagger..."
"...started to whisper into your mind. Yeah I know. But that's not an excuse. Because of your betrayal, she managed to corrupt me even further. Making me lose memories and make happy memories a nightmare. But that's not what's important here. What I want to know is: If you felt guilty, why didn't you simply search for me. You knew where the stream goes."
She stays silent while watching down at her feet. Seeing a chance, he dashes at her, ready to deal the killing blow, only to have his katana blocked by an another katana.
"Aah. The kitsune is here."he says and looks at Nevada, who is holding onto his own God slaying weapon."I've been waiting for you."
Raz kicks himself back and sheaths his blade.
"Okay. I see you here, Anna next to you....So."he shouts out"Where are you three masters?!"

"So you noticed."Maria says and appears next to Nevada with Veronica and Alice.
"All of my teachers are here now. But this you are here only to be spectators."he says. Next he pushes his sword out of the sheath with his thumb and pulls it back. He does it twice and then looks around. Everyone is paralyzed, except Raz, who simply walks up to the group and looks at Nevada into his eyes.
"You can see, you can hear and you can smell, but you can't move. So enjoy the show."
Raz pats Nevada's shoulder and walks up to Anna and simply grabs her dagger from her hand. Now with a dagger in his right and his sheathed sword in his left, he walks over to Alice.
He turns to look at Nevada straight into his eyes and sees despair and also anger in them. He realized what was going to happen.
"All of you gonna suffer."Raz says and stabs Alice into her chest, through her heart, killing her. He lets go off the dagger and doing so, her body drops onto the ground, blood painting the floor. He looks at Nevada and sees the struggle in him to break free.
"Now the second mom."he says and with a quick unseating slash, Veronicas head falls off from her shoulders and drops down onto the ground. Her head rolls on the floor and stops in front of Nevada's feet.
Raz looks at him and sheaths his sword.
"Hmm? Maybe Maria is next?"he asks and looks at her, then him.
"That's the hate I want to see. Come on let it all loose."he says and hits Nevada's forehead with the hilt of his sword, releasing Nevada from his own prison.
"I will fucking murder you!"he shouts with tears in his eye and leaps onto him with his icy sword. Raz blocks the attack with ease and kicks Nevada immediately after.
"Is that it. Maybe I should kill Maria, then the other kitsune and finally, what should I do with the baby? Kill? Adopt?"
"Don't touch them."he shouts and jumps at Raz like a wild animal. His claws are out and his body starts to grow white hair all over.
"So it's here."Raz mutters and leaps away from him, letting him transform. And like some time ago, Nevada once again turns into a giant fox with nine tails. But this time he's twice the size.
"A true king. Too bad my job is done."Raz says while looking at the fox, who is leaping at him, with his jaws open. Without any effort, he holds out his sword towards Nevada and when he touches it, he drops onto the ground, turning back to his original form and once again, paralyzed.
Raz looks at Nevada and says:"Anger is the key. Embrace it."
He then turns around and sees the purple haired man there, Chaos.
"Job is done. Payment!"Raz says.
"Here."he replies and throws him a leather bag, which he catches.
"I have seen my enemies side. Your opinion on who will be the winner?"he asks.
"Order this time. Your group is bunch of fucktards."Raz says and looks back at them.
"I'll also take this."he says and holds out his right hand. A bolt of lighting shoots out under Alice and at his hand. Once the bolt disappears, Annas dagger is in his hands.
"Wanna remove the illusion?"Chaos asks
"You're still here? Why?"Raz asks and turns around, to see him disappear.
"Annoying."he mutters and quickly pushes and pulls his sword with his thumb. Immediately after, Alice and Veronica are on their feet, completely alive without any injury. All of them are still unable to move.
"You know where to find me, my love."Raz says and throws the dagger. Next moment, he disappears as a bolt of lighting.

8 178Is It Too Late To Move My Lair?
A legendary dragon... It has been told in the stories for hundreds of years. Some say it keeps a mountain of treasure in its cave, some say it is a vicious beast, some say it protects the village nearby, some claim it can grant their wishes, and some just think it's nothing more than a fairytale. He is not. The dragon is very real, although he isn't bothered by what people think of him in the slightest. He also doesn't have a grand treasure, nor does he grant wishes, like a magical genie. He is not interested in eating humans either. And as for protecting them… well. This is the story of the time before the legends, how they came to life and a dragon in the quest of his snooze. In a nutshell, this is a simple, light-hearted story with a dragon in it. What I have in mind is a relatively short one compared to most of the works on this site, but we'll see where it goes. This is my first attempt at writing something like this, so please be patient and kind in pointing out mistakes. As for the posting schedule... let's say it will be sporadic. Hope you enjoy reading, as much as I do while writing it… THE STORY IS NOT DROPPED, JUST SLOW ON THE UPDATES. Cover art by Nane, aka me. (Cross-posted on Scribble Hub.)
