《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 15: The Death of a Nakama
Advertisement
After ending the life of Jennifer, we weren't bothered for 2 months, but I was still sketchy. We already went to Japan again and in those past 2 months, I've been training with Hazen for a while now. "No, your aim isn't well! Try and use your brain a bit more. If you were going to shoot anyone, with something like that, you would never hit them! You need to use your brain to get them in a spot, like we did with Jennifer, but it must be done by yourself. As so, you need Yagrik to become bigger. At its current size, it won't be able to even copy half of a Soul Emifer, although it can make hundreds of clones. The amount of Stone used depends on the weapons strength, so suppose you want to make wings, it would be much harder and more costly, than to make, lets say, 15 perfect clones. Because clones , although has the looks, have there movements controlled by you, and abilities controlled by you, so it would only be stronger if you can make a perfect clone, outside and inside, and that woudl most likely take 20 of the current clones, and even then, it woudl probably be of someone weak, like a general or squire of the government. Now, use your ideas to attack me!" Although I liked the peace, I was still sketchy of something to happen.
I continued trying to attack him but even still, I couldn't launch a hit on him. I tryed many tactics like cornering him, springing traps, but maybe my approach is just to bad, just like my time with Sensei. I still haven't even seen his Soul Emifer, so I can't even begin to imagine his SE's power. " Oh, boys! Dinner is ready, come and eat!" Tou, suprisingly, is actually amazing at cooking. She told us that she learned from her mother when she was 11 years of age, but when she passed away, she was the only one who knew how to cook, so she has some experience with cooking. "Man, Johnny, you should stop over-exerting yourself. You just got healed, you don't want your wound to open up again, now do you?" I Couldn't argue with that. After eating, I decided to sleep a little, and I dozed off in my room.
When I woke up, I checked on Tou and Hazen, and they were both fast asleep. It was 6 AM , so I decided to do some training. But first, I wanted to get Hazen back for those few days back. So I went to his room , and changed his alarm timing, to 2 PM, from 12 PM. Then I went into his room and took some of his chocolates, and that pissed him off. "I was awake the whole time, your louder than a cow. If it was Tou, I wouldn't even noticed her presence, but your presence is bigger than an elephants! Now put my KitK*t back, Or I'll kill you, resurect you, then kill you again. Thanks " he said, and I jumped. "The hell? How did you know I was there." . "Like I said, your presence is bigger than that of an elephants. That shows you have less control over your presence, but that also makes you strong. Try to control it." After I asked him if he coudl train with me, and he accepted.
This time, I already had the field set up before we even fought, but still Hazen, was undettered, as I still wasn't able to hit him, or so he thought. "God Damnit, same old tricks? You do know this won't work! If you fight the same person over and over, they would know your basic strategem and if they know that, know strategy can help you." Just what I wanted to here. He got caught off guard, like I supposed. Rather than rigging the ground, I rigged the air. I shrinked my stone into an extremely thin string, less than 1 μm , which was un-noticible to Hazen, because he didnt see it coming. The string acted like a tripwire, and once he jumped away from my ground trap, he triggered that, which created another stone, which senet boulders toppling down. After that, two clones came from both sides and I went straight infront of him and stabbed him in the gut, but, something happened that brought me déjà vu . Above him, a shining white light came and he dodged it, like it was nothing. "Damn, you activated my power." bringing in more déjà vu . "You... know... Sensei?" I asked him, and he was confused. "Who's Sensei?" and I told him I've seen someone else use that power. "OH.... him! Well, he's kinda, kinda my rival. We have been friends since childhood, and whenever we fought, it always ended in a draw. " And I was confused even more. "You... you... knew him since he was a child? But... but your like... like 20 years old! Hes like 300 !" and he laughed. "Looks isn't everything, you know. I've used magic to make me look the same age, you wouldn't believe your true age, nor mine. HaHa! Now, I'll consider that you hit me, so well done!"

And we continued on training. When it was 10 AM, I heard Tou's alarm, and so I decided to head back, but when I was about to enter the apartment, she came out, yawning, rubbing her eye, "Oh... my... It's so early. And your still training? No one is coming for us, for a while anyway," She said, as the bedsheets she was wearing was falling. I blushed, "God Damnit Tou, were some clothes!" and I stomped back out, to train with Hazen. "Man, you really are trying to hide the fact you're a pervert! Haha! If that was me, I would pull it down! Come on, be more of a man! Well I'm getting bored of this, so I'll make a clone you can train with, he is about 1 fifth of my true power, but against the power I'm showing you, I.e physical strength, the clone is double mine, hes actually my pet, so don't make him angry, Because even then I can't control him. Well I'm Off, playing SubwaySurfers! If I get a highscore, I'll tell you!" and he jumped to the window, and went to his phone, playing, but he stayed outside, having an eye on me, just in case.
Me and his pet continued training, and it was harder than I expected. It was a strong pet. I couldn't even keep up with its punches or kicks, let alone hit it, using my full strength. Which makes me wonder just how weak I am. I still haven't found anyone with my same ability, so it was much harder for me. However I knew , that if I hone my magical skills, I would be much stronger. So rather than relying on my SE, I tryed using my ME , instead. I sent Yagrik back into the depths of my soul again. This time, I tryed using magic, which made it much harder. I used it like Hazen showed me, first saying a chant, then controlling something. "Only Expert magicians can do it without chants, and I still need chants. My true strength is my Soul Emifer, than my physical strength, I'm weakest with Mind Emifers and have low resistance to them. If you are able to hone yours, you will be able to beat me , pretty easily, granted you used the right strategy, but I understand your strategem already. " he used to say. With that, I missed Hartsen~Sensei even more. He trained me so well, yet I never thought about it that way,I've always thought about it differently, like I was being forced to overtrain, yet I never knew he was just trying for me to be stronger.
Another 2 weeks passed, and thats when it happened. We had to go to buy some food, so me and Tou went together to the supermarket. When we were going home, the same man, with the woman and child intervened us. The woman said, "Diablo, it's time. Target found!" and with that she said some chant, and there was a barrier around us. Everything outside it was black and white. "This is a Time chamber, a place where time stops in this current place, so it looks like we are simply standing there, and so is everything, still." she said. Then this Diablo man came out of a tree. "Michael, stay behind your sis, I'll handle our targets." Diablo said. He then called out his SE, and it was something else I never saw. It was a scythe, yet the handle was made of bone, and the scythe itself, was made of Soul Steel, a steel only forgeable by master reapers. "I never knew reapers exsisted! I thought they were myths, damn, this is going to be a problem, because the only way for a reaper to die is it to willingly want to leave the world." I told Tou, but she was already in attack position. "Hey! You! Pretty Girl! Your enemy is me. so get ready! " and with that Tou charged, but the Diablo guy, came out of nowhere and blocked her. "Hey , Hey! Don't forget about me! I've came for the life of both of you, so don't damn interfere. Your target is me, leave them alone! " and with one strike, Tou was down, for the count. "No!! Dont Go !! Touuuuuuu!!!!" After moments of anguish, in an angered tone, " ILL KILL YOU! I WILL KILL YOU ! I WILL HAUNT YOUR DREAMS TILL THE END OF THE WORLD!!" I was angry. She was gone. No matter how much I tryed to heal the wound, she wouldn't heal. She was gone. "BWAHAHAHAH! Cuts from a scythe corrode the cells, so even if you try to regrow it, it will continue corroding, so its a killer blow if I want it to be!" and he laughed like an A***ole , seemingly taking pleasure.

"This is great! I never knew our top priority enemy becamae such a weakling like him! I don't even need to attack, Damn, even Michael can kill you! You are so weak, but I still have to kill you, because its my order. I was ordered to kill you, just like Jennifer, Tou and everyone! It is time you follow fate, and DIE! It is your destiny to die! And be reborn! I'm the only one alive who knows perfectly well who you are, and I know that if I kill you, the world will end, except for the alternate dimensions." Diablo said. I was so angry I couldn't control myself. My anger made my stone grow 10 times larger, and I fell unconscious. "Hahaha! He's Unconscious! Look at that Trinity! He's unconscious! He's so scared! And what the hell is this? Yagrik? It is so small than last time I saw it!" and it wasn't me who replyed. "BWAHAHAHAHAHHA! Diablo, its been a while, yes? This body is a weakling, and so am I, but don't worry, I have my reasons, I can't kill you, but you will be killed soon, maybe not today, but someday. 'Sensei' is coming, so I suppose you better go, because he hates people who harm his disciples. Now, lets play a bit!" and Diablo laughed alot. "Hahahah! Well Its a please, Wellington! Its time I actually get to play! But still, With your current state, even 0.2% would be enough to take you down, so I'll wait till you get your true body, so for now, let me kill this vessel." And Diablo charged. My unconscious body deflected it, "No, I still need it. I'll lose it in due time, so don't worry, but now I will do what I can to keep it. Hes gaining consciousness, so it is goodbye for now." and I woke up.
I saw myself standing, rather than on the ground . " Aww, I wanted to play a bit!" Diablo said, but he striked him with his scythe, and I didn't see a wound on me, Yagrik deflected it, yet it was cut in half. "Man! It's still has alot of tenacity, like a mind of its own. It better not be you! " and with that he struck again, and this time Yagrik wasn't there to save me. Then, out of the blue, The Barrier increased in size. "God Damnit! I didn't take in the factor that he might still be alive. Diablo, we might have to retreat" The woman said, a bit worried. "Come on, that old geyser isn't strong enough to take me on, and with us 3 together, he's chanceless! But I'll take your word and leave, AFTER I kill Johnny." Diablo said, and he attacked. This time, It was deflected, and his scythe was thrown to the side. "Oh wow! You came quicker than I thought, 'Sensei' !" and Sensei was there. "Wha.. What are you doing here? I thought you were in America, The hell?" and he said something to me, "Forget everything that happened now, because you will learn later," and he tossed me outside, and I myself froze, with only my thoughts. I didn't know what happened, but all I knew was that Tou was dead, and I was still a weakling. Seconds passed and I saw Sensei bleeding, and the other three gone. "Wha.. What happened?" I said, and He Fell, half dead. I took him to our apartment and told Hazen everything. "damnit, I thought he was killed! This is bad, oh so very bad. I'll explain later, first lets get 'Sensei' healed up, I need your help." and so we went to heal him
Two weeks passed, yet still he was unconscious. I asked him what happened, and instantly My head started hurting. Was this the effects of the stress of training? I did not know, but all I knew was that I, too, fell unconscious, waking up on a bed, about 3 weeks after i fell . The first thing I thought was, who the hell was the guy infront of me.
