《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 21: Trinity's True Nature
Advertisement
After sending Johnny off to train for the next 20 hours, our time, I had to still face off with Trinity, whom I know almost nothing about. The only thing I knew was that she was a mind warper, or an illusionist, or , more commonly known in Japan, genjutsu. She didn't activate her Soul Emifer right off the bat, she most likely underestimated me, even though I pissed her off. She attacked me out of the blue, letting anger drive her, rather than being calm, which most masters would do. This just made it much more easier, when I wanted to face her off when she was using her full power. "Oh come on, if you don't come at me with full strength, you would die a meaningless death, and so will your beloved Michael, now come on, Trinity, and play with me a bit more, but a more rough would you? I STILL CRAVE FOR BLOODLUST AND THE FEELING OF PAIN! BWAHAHAHAHAHA I HAVE NEVER FELT PAIN IN QUITE A WHILE I WANT TO FEEL IT AGAIN! NOW, MAKE MY BLOOD PUMPING WOMAN! BEAT ME UP LIKE YOU NEVER DID TO ANYONE BEFORE!" I said, in my insane voice. She seemed angrier then ever, "Do..n't ... dare.... touch.... MICHAEL!" she said, continuously slashing me, with a chain with an edged blade on both ends. It continuously whipped around me, but it never hit me, because she was simply swaying the chain, without any thought. "YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO TOUCH ME LIKE THAT, TRINITY! BETTER GET READY TO KILL MICHAEL, I suppose." I said, making her angrier than ever.
She continued charging at me, without any sense, just throwing it. I taunted her some more. "This is the renowned tactician's ability? Who can't even control her own anger? I pity poor you, to think you would actually be a challenge to me, better finish this quickly." and she just continued becoming angrier and angrier. Then, I decided I was getting bored, so I was going to finish it off right now, because I was getting bored anyways. I grabbed a sword from a nearby vase ( you don't ask okay ) and I slashed at her, and I saw a small chuckle on her innocent little face, yet filled with murderous intent.
She dodged it with great ease, and then she made a big grin, "Baka, Baka! (Idiot,Idiot!) You fell for my trap completely, will that's great. Let me just tell you that all that anger was fake, a bit forced, you may say." and she slashed me with her chain and created a large cut on my torso. "Dang, I feel dumb now, well I should have thought that you had some plan with you, because you are a tricky one, well, one point for Trinity, none for me, awww." I said, feeling good, actually. She is actually becoming a challenge. If she was to continue relying on her tricks I may as well have to activate my Soul Emifer, but before that I decided to use my familiar, Rittz, an Ice Golem, found in the Demon Dimension, gifted by my Father, Hazen IX. "Rittz is a very compassionate Golem, a one of a kind. He doesn't like fighting, but is a very loyal Golem, much different from it's cousins and brothers." he said, when he gave it to me.

I actually haven't used Rittz ever since the Grand War. I feel like he was itching to fight, because he was a good fighter nonetheless. "Rittz, teach this insolent women a lesson. Don't worry, I'll be supporting you, like usual." and he seemed pretty happy, "Jiy! Jiy!" which meant he was happy. Rittz then took the shine from there. "Tisk tisk tisk, you summoned your familiar without even thinking. Well, I suppose I should summon my secondary familiar, you don't seem good enough for me to use my primary familiar, yet alone, my Soul Emifer." and she summoned her familiar, an elf, a support familiar. The elf's name was Ezra, and it was a she. "Ezra, coordinates -21, 22, 32. Angle 60 , Direction West-North. Use of attack, #341. " she said, and I understood nothing. "You told your familiar abunch of crappy numbers? That is sad, young one," as I myself was a dumb individual, I didn't understand that she was planning on ambushing me, and yet, the numbers she gave didn't match true coordinates, so it was all in some jumbled up way, making it a good tactic, even to those who understood those terms. I continued attacking her, while making Rittz keep eye on Ezra. "Kiy!Kiy!KIY!" which was a warning, meaning shes about to attack. I instantly put my guard up, which was a big mistake, as it was a bluff. As I was focused on Ezra, Trinity came and attacked me.
"You should pay more attention, Senpai." she said, charging at me, and in her sarcastic tone. If I was even miliseconds late, I would have been into strips, and dead, but lucky enough, I was able to dodge her attack, the wound on be chest continued with searing pain, making it hard for me to think, but I loved it, just like a masochist would. "YES! YES! HURT ME SOME MORE!! MAKE ME FEEL PAIN!!! PAIN IS GOOD, PAIN IS LOVE!" I said, hysterically. Now it seemed like the tides had turned, as I was the crazy one, and she was the calm one. With the help of Ezra and her constantly shifting positions.It was pretty much impossible for me to go around, without getting hurt, and then it hit me.
I started to calm down, and listened carefully to her positioning. "Coordinates 34, 42, -10 , Angle 82, Direction South-East, attack #242." and I got it. Since she switched the coordinates up, it only took time to figure. it is usually x,y,z coordinates (Length,Width,Height or something like that), but since she mixed it up, it would most likely be y,z,x , as that is what it followed with the previous attacks. so her y coordinataes is 34, z is 42, and x is -10, so that gave me her position. Now angle 82, and since she always either -100 or it minuses 100 (if 100 than x-100 where x is angle) Direction was South East, so simply make it oposite, than switch it around, so it would be West-North, or Northwest , the direction of the attack, and attack #242 I had no clue was, but knowing where she would attack, it would not be a problem. But it was, as she thought I would think and with that, she made it a quick attack, and since I was thinking to hard, I didn't have time to react, and Ezra pierced my back with an arrow, and tipped with barbed wire, so I couldn't pull it out, but pain always awakens me, kind of like adrenaline.

The next few attacks, I didn't think, rather , acted on instinct, which , although Trinity knew would happen, couldn't defend against it, and I was able to get a solid hit on Ezra, and that knocked her clean, all this time Rittz was keeping Trinity occupied well. Ezra then went back into Trinty's alternate dimension, aka the home of familiars. Then she had no choice but to bring out her primary Familiar. "Come on out, Iansis [Cebuano for Trick, according to Google], heed my call, and help me take care of this fool." and when she called out Iansis, rather than a monster coming out, I saw an imitation of her, and then it hit me. I hit my hand with a fist, like they do in animes when they realize something. "Oh, so Iansis was what we thought was your Soul Emifer, tricky one you are missy," and she laughed, "Oh no, at that time I was using both Iansis and my SE, but my SE has a special property that I won't tell you" she said, giving a murderous grin.
Iansis than split into many different Trinity's , and all of them had seemingly the seem power as does Trinity, herself. "Iansis is a trickster, you see. She copies an image of whosoever I desire, and she can split herself into many times, but she herself has to be stronger than that person. Suppose Iansis was stronger than God, she could make herself into God, with his abilities, and then split herself, essentially creating infinite God's , all with the same power of the one God, so, goodluck " she said, laughing. I then showed a grin of my own. "Well that's is great, ain't that Rittz? *Nods, saying Jiy Jiy* Yes, that's right Rittz, she's made us all happy. She has allowed you to actually go full strength. Now, Rittz, Go to Phase 2, Mode 3!" and his size instantly changed. Rather than being a tiny Ice Golem, he became a full grown Ice Golem, which are 3 metres in height, and , although they are slower, they became much more stronger in every other aspect, making him an essential tank. "Biy,Biy!" which means he's excited, and wants to pound someone.
"Yes, shed some blood! It is alright, flowing blood makes us crazy with power, we love Bloodshed, now, die!" and Rittz charged, attacking Iansis full on. Iansis first split into 10 self's , because that was all Trinity could control before she was to lose control of Iansis and she was to go on a full rampage. When they all targeted Rittz, although they had the exact same body and strength of Trinity, copying her intelligence was to much for Iansis to handle, because it was much to vast. With that, Rittz knew that and he attacked them at full force knocking all 10 of them down, and they all shrinkened back into one clone. "Wha...t... How.., could... you? An Ice golem isn't that strong, unless... don't tell me... Rittz is the king?" and I didn't show any sign. "Well, he is the prince, yet his father died, but he wasn't there at the time, so his younger brother ascended the throne, so he is still considered a prince, or a betrayer, but he loved my father very dearly, so he had no objections helping me." and Rittz showed his sign of approval. I knew that although after everything that happened, this battle was only beginning.

Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)
