《Shadowlove (Lite)》Chapter 37: Reaper Vs. Assassin Maids
Advertisement
Suddenly, the glass on the balcony window would shatter as something breaks through. But the maids wouldn't bulge at all from the commotion. The being acted fast and extended one of their limbs out to knock one of the maids off balance. their legs would fly forward and hit some of the other maids and it causes a domino effect of them all disrupting their attack. At the next second, the person who came in would reach for Yasuline's arm and pulls her from the middle of them all and saves her as they all pile on each other.
"H-huh!?" She says as she was being dragged across the floor. She wiggled her body around and that alerted the person to let her go. Looking up, she could see that it was the White Reaper who saved her. "You again." She would say softly before she scuttles onto her knees and hugs him tightly. He would crouch down and pulls her up to her feet, but she would still hold onto him tightly. She needed the support right now to calm herself.
The two stayed like that for a good while until she began hearing some rumbling right behind her. The White Reaper would break the hug and tucks her behind him as he faces down the five maids who picked themselves up. At least, they seemed to register that they had to change their movements instead of being slow.
Each of them got into a different fighting stance that Yasuline has never seen them in her life. And she never anticipated seeing it either. The two of them would slowly move toward her bed and would reach under it to pull out her runeblade. As the White Reaper prepares to fight them, Yasuline would cling to his arm, causing him to look back and notice the nervousness and gripping emotion on her expression. Something she can't help even when the enemies this time were people she knew and cared for. He would give a nod as if knowing what she wanted.

He hands the runeblade to her and then would reach under the bed again to pull out her training sword with its scabbard still on it.
[Battle Initiated. White Reaper Vs. Lumines Castle Maids x5]
[Round 1 Begins. Lumines Castle Maid E's turn.]
Jessie was the first one up to start attacking the White Reaper. She grabs the handle of the knife with both hands and begins charging at her. She was unusually precise with her movements until the very last minutes as the heel of her boot would come off and causes her to lose her footing. She tumbles onto the ground and falls, slighting sliding right to his feet. The White Reaper didn't have to do much except bop her head with the end of the handle. She stayed still, as she fell unconscious.

Yasuline would flinch at the impact and when the White Reaper would lightly tap her head with her training sword. She knew he had to do something to stop them, but it still hurt to see her friends having to be put down, even if it wasn't lethal as it likely would have in any other situation.
Cassie and Clair stepped up as if to state that they were next up to handle the White Reaper. In unison, they would hold their knives out and begin running together at first, but then split up and attempt to attack at both sides of the White Reaper, registering for what it was, the White Reaper would step forth to keep further distance between him and Yasuline. Still, in unison, the two would begin to turn their bodies to prepare for a wide swing with their knives. His eyes would dart left and right and with one swift movement, he would unsheathe the training sword and locks them both against the knives. Locked in place, the White Reaper would use his superior strength to pull the two close rapidly, until their head collided with one another. They immediately fall to the ground unconscious.

Again, Yasuline would flinch with each attack that connects with them. After the two fell, Yasuline would step in and tries to remove them out of the way of the fight, to ensure they wouldn't get in the way and get severely hurt. It would take some time, but the White Reaper would continue to be in front of Yasuline and keep the other two from making their moves and attack her.
Once Yasuline has completed with removing her friends out of the way, the White Reaper would finally make his move. Between the two remaining ones, Miss Elise was the more dangerous looking one. As she stood there, ready to fight, she would expertly twirl her knife around in between her fingers, On closer inspection, her knife was different than the rest, it had some light scratch marks on the blade as if it had been used severely though other means than to be used for cutting up ingredients at the kitchen.
The White Reaper would slowly creep up to the two women. They, themselves begin to stiffen their postures even more, ready for anything. He would twirl his sword out with the scabbard back over the blade. He would leap right over to them in a second and the two girls would then hold their knives out in anticipation to block his sword strike. After they did, he would crouch down and then swings one of his legs right across theirs. Causing them both to fall. They both fall down with a thud but were still conscious. Miss Elise was getting ready to pick herself up faster than Merry could. The White Reaper would take the chance to perform one of his capabilities when taking on a single enemy. He would press his fingers together in a line and rapidly jabs the tip of them against her neck, she instantly blacks out and falls back onto the ground.
[The White Reaper's Turn. Uses Common Skill: Sweep Strike. Bonus Action: Uses Assassin Skill: Single Strike. Effective. Lumines Castle Maid B is Knocked Out.]
During the attack, Merry would manage to get back to her feet and ready to fight once more. Backing herself to a wall and then the corner as the White Reaper would step up to her. This gave Yasuline room to reach for Miss Elise and pull her toward the other unconscious maids.
Merry registers that she was alone and knew she had no chance to win this battle. A glow in her eyes would brighten for a single moment and she would hold her other hand out. It begins to illuminate a bright red. Soon, the glow would start to spread over her body.
Yasuline was completely confused as to what she was doing, but it seemed to be something dangerous as the White Reaper leaped into action and strikes her with the training sword, her body would bend slightly at the side from the impact and she would tumble down from her feet to a sitting position, the glow would go away slowly and she starts breathing heavily, her eyes closed.
"What's wrong with her?" Yasuline would say, not able to hold back the panic in her voice. The White Reaper would hold his hand to her in a gesture that she should calm down. The White Reaper would crouch in front of her and pulls out a fancy bottle that Yasuline recognizes as a health potion. He forces Merry to drink it down and then lightly brushes her hair in a way that Yasuline enjoys to get her to sleep. She would feel calm as she notices that it was effecting Merry the same way and has fallen asleep.
