《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 47: Duel.
Advertisement
The duel between Trinity and Hui was seemingly one-sided, in our favor, of course. Each arrow Hui would shoot, would be easily deflected, and it seemed like Trinity didn't need to call out Iansis anyways. She simply called out Ezra to make quick work of Hui. " I can tell Harpy's are more known to be familiars, so, are you a lone or a familiar?" she said, while Ezra was busy with Hui. Hui, desperately trying to shoot her way out of this adversity, simply said, "A Lone." and than showed a smile, a smile my enemy knew most well.
"Don't lose focus!" Johnny said, charging at me. I didn't have the time to exactly dodge it, so I took the blow, and, with his fists, he managed to push me back into the wall, crumbling it when I collided with the wall, and I then saw blood flow under my lip. "Nice one, well then, Sadisuto! Stall him for a while." and I summoned Sadisuto, who has rested by now, and continued to watch Trinity's fight.
Not a moment passed, and I saw Trinity angry. "Shit! Iansis, can't you do anything good? She easily saw through you!" and it seemed that Hui already managed to force Trinity into awakening Iansis. While I got punched by Johnny, it seemed like Hui managed to shoot an arrow directly at Ezra, who didn't have the time to dodge, and got an instant K.O. Trinity was very amazed by this fact, but Ezra has never been the fighting kind of Familiar. Hui, on the other hand, perserveres in a problem, as if she does good under-pressure.
After managing to K.O. Ezra, Trinity was forced to call out Iansis, which made Hui seem even happier. The first thing she did was start creating illusions, and she also activated her soul Emifer, just in case. She created a strong genjutsu , which even radiated towards me. Hui didn't react to this at all, but simply armed her bow, aimed it, and shot directly at Trinity, and Iansis deflected it else Trinity would have died in Iansis's clone's place. "Shit! Iansis, can't you do anything good? She easily saw through you!" and she seemed angrier than usual . Johnny was close to beating Sadisuto, so I knew I had only a few more minutes until my time was up.

Trinity' genjutsu was already destroyed, and she couldn't trick Hui any longer, so it seemed that all was lost. Hui showed a small smirk as she went towards Trinity. She thought she had already won and as a result she started laughing, aiming her bow. She was wrong, oh so wrong. She shot Trinity at point blank range, but it seemed to simply 'miss' her, as if her body was mist and it just moved away. The arrow than dissipated. I understood now what had happened. Trinity started the entire thing with Hui inside her genjutsu to begin with. My,my, tactics do trump over brute strength.
"I said, pay attention!" and Johnny charged at me once again, this time with Yartsdra in his hands, "Seems like you have perfected the art of copying." I said, dodging the attack. "Oh, I'm not so sure about that. After all, it took me a few years to create Unis, let alone summon it." and he continued attacking me with Yartsdra in his hand, and his other hand with a dagger, of some sort I haven't seen. I could easily dodge Yartsdra, but when I dodged it, the dagger would strike me, causing me to bleed a little. This fight seemed totally in favor of Johnny, which was to much plot armor if you ask me, so I decided to start using my own Soul Emifer. "Come, Kyoku Suru! Phase 1!" and I felt an instant surge of power . My scythe too, felt seemingly light , lighter than paper. I then ran towards Johnny, and before he could react, sliced him.
"Gah! I haven't felt this much pain in a while!" he said, while blood flowed all along his face. He didn't seem fazed at all, so I continue striking him, not missing a single blow. He continued bleeding, and it seemed one-sided now. "Well, I think I should start being a little bit more serious, like I'm bored at this point." and when I striked him, he easily deflected it, with his hand touching directly the scythe blade, and it wasn't bleeding either. I didn't notice it uptill now, but all the wounds I have inflicted on him seemed to disappear , like I can't seem to see any wound or blood , as if he healed them in an instant. "Right you are, pal." he said, charging forward once again. I didn't want to continue this, as I have not yet needed to use phase 100, but I might just need it. Our battle seemed to be overwhelming, because the third floor seemed to shake. "Let us continue this another day, before the whole Heaven collapses, perhaps , on... the 800th day of KiJi? We will continue this duel then." and with that I grabbed Kagayaku Kyu and left the hall, before Johnny could catch me.

It seemed like he didn't chase after me, because he too, knew of the consequences of continuing our fight, especially here. Trinity was lagging behind, because I didn't notice her, so I simply supposed she will come back a later time, but I didn't know what happened next. Apparently, she came back to me, wounded and bruised all along her body. "That damn brat, Hui or whatever, she was stronger than I anticipated, no matter, I'll get her next time." and she continued to limp towards me, until we reached back to the ground floor.
When we reached there, I noticed that there wasn't any breach , and it seemed like Jennifer couldn't hold the fort. Every reaper was gone, and it was only me, Jennifer, Trinity and Michael left, which surprised me, because I had no clue where Michael was before, apparently he was with us the entire time. "Michael my boy, I didn't notice you! What happened?" I said, and he hid behind Trinity . "Before anything, what happened to Onee~San?" and I told him it, briefly. " She is a great sister... I wish I had one like her...." was all I said, and Michael seemed happy enough. "Well, Jennifer~San couldn't defeat a single Angel, so she called off the attack, and told everyone to surrender and retreat. After that, there wasn't enough space for us in the bus so we had to stay back. Jennifer has been protecting me desperatly, but alas, she got caught and is now a prisoner, the one you see up there was a doodle I drew." and I swore, banging my hand onto the wall. "Well, let's rescue her, and then return back to Soul Society before we plan our next attack."
~~~~~~~~~~~
"They left, well done Hui! Thank you for not killing her, either." and she blushed. "It was nothing, I mean you left Raizel, so I thought it was only appropriate if I left her either. But still, I can't believe I was under her genjutsu the whole time! I should've been a bit more careful, well, it's alright I suppose. Let's go back home! I miss Onee~san already." and she went unconscious due to blood loss. Although it seemed like Hui was the winner, in all honesty, it was Trinity who came out on top. I then opened my rift, and through her in there, telling Mikasa to keep care of her while I go back to the Flugre Dimension.
As I arrived, I noticed that there was no more food coming, so it seemed like the treaty was off on both sides at this point. Hui also woke up, so I opened up my rift, and saw her screaming at me. "Why am I in your rift, you weirdo? Baka,baka,baka!" and she kept on pummeling me with her fists, which seemed cute at first, until atleast before it started hurting me.
We then went back to the Imperial castle, and two things happened when we entered the premises of the castle. Hazen lunged himself towards me, and two arrows shot directly at the direction of Hui. I easily deflected Hazen, but the moment he was at point blank range, he turned his body mid-flight, and got a clean cut on my torso, just below my heart. Similary, when Hui dodged the two arrows, a third one came popping up, and hit her clean on the head, but it had a plunger head, so it just stuck on her face. "How are you, Johnny~Boy? You do know I'm still the Human Lord? Don't underestimate me!" and I couldn't help myself but laugh. "Yes, yes, you are. Well done." Hui seemed dissapointed. "Onee~sama! What have you been doing with Hazen while we were gone?" and She laughed , and so did Hazen.
"Oh, nothing much." and I nudged at Hazen. "Seriously dude, what did you do?" and he said it, clean, and simple. "I proposed to Juni, and she accepted. We are engaged now!" and he showed a big grin.
Me and Hui both fell to the ground, and fainted, which seemed to confuse the both of them.

The Last Death Mage
Since time immemorial humanity has always feared and shunned what it didn’t understand. Over time this changed a bit to encompass things that didn’t conform to their thoughts and ideals. Due to humanity’s stubbornness with which the enforced their ideals many lives were lost and changed. When humanity first clashed with monsters and the beings that use magic, this trait caused many bloody fights. Over time the fights escalated into battles and full on war on several occasions. Humanity due to their adaptability and persistence won many of these altercations, causing huge casualties to the magical beings. Humanity did not come out unscathed however; many of the empires and civilizations noted in human history fell due to these battles and wars. Eventually over time humanity and the magical beings came to a sort of agreement. Magic and the beings associated with it faded into the background of history, being relegated to myth and legend. Humanity meanwhile advanced leaps and bounds once magic faded, leading to our current level of civilization. Not all magical beings were content with this, thus they did their own actions and killed or fed on humans. This has led to many organizations to be formed concerning this, on both the side of humanity and the side of magical beings. They regulate and control the use of magic as well as protect humanity from the darker things that are now not but myth to them, but there is a reason humanity instinctually fears the dark. Unfortunately there are always those that are unsatisfied by the status quo, and those that are prejudiced against things that are different. This is a story of a young man who wanted nothing more than to be normal. Unfortunately Fate and the world he lives in do not easily allow that this, thus his life changed, not for the better. Everyone has heard of or read stories about monsters and legends, heroes and villains, this is one such story. Hi, this is my second attempt at a story here, the first was before the major overhaul happened and i lost everything related to that story due to PC troubles. I hope you enjoy this if you dont please leave some constructive criticism in the comments. An Editor and the like will be needed, but I will edit as problems are pointed out and as i proof read. This story will have no set schedule, unless of course I decide to type up a bunch in succession then i will note that in a chapter beforehand. ADDED NOTE: most sexual content will be in Interludes or sub chapters with a .5 attached. Profanity and gore however shall be plenty in the actual story, though the descriptives for the gore may be added later. (For example, in the prologue that gave a hint at what happened to the MC, will be enhanced so that the gore invokes more descriptive/complete mental pictures, though it may wait.) ~Tyroth Gideon
