《Survival Story Of A Swordsman In A Post-Apocalyptic World》Chapter 6
Advertisement
In the infirmary, whereas the people there are currently in a panic about Alexander's situation.
"Chief! The patient's losing so much blood!" One of the operators pointed out to the chief, who is the old man as before that they called grandpa. "Remove his suit! And you!" He pointed to another person. "Prepare for blood transfusion look for blood bags that are type AB we should have had those, shouldn't we?"
The person then ran towards an adjacent room. Alexander's also been placed in a metallic board and has been put into a cylindrical machine face up which is called a cradle of life. A machine capable of printing living tissue directly onto living organisms but cannot replace the blood that has been lost. But blood bags could be arranged onto it to make it transfuse the blood needed, it could also replace any part or organs of a body. For example is that it could print someone a lost limb, have people replace a heart to avoid sickness, and even kidneys for those needing it. The technology is advanced enough to make it a commodity in hospitals and even small infirmaries like in this small settlement. It also has a miniature version capable of patching up even large wounds but not enough to replace an organ or a limb. It has an appearance of a gun however since it has to be manually aimed for wounds to be healed, unlike the full version which is fully automatic. It is brought in fields by soldiers fighting monsters and has mostly helped soldiers from their demise due to a staggeringly high death rate of thirty-four percent, ever since the first day of a soldier in the military. Specifically, in actual combat against monsters. Although may vary depending on what regiment they are in.
This technology simply converts energy into matter and rearranges its chemical structure to mimic those of a certain person, thus being able to print tissues of living organisms but is not able to produce liquids for bodies like blood as it can only print solid matter. However, it can even be used to heal even the most extreme and even fatal injuries as long as the person stays alive. If it is too late. Then not even such technology could bring them back from their deaths.

The person returns. Holding two bags of blood that are labeled AB. Then arranged in a small chamber beside the machine are the tubes to then the two bags are connected onto it even though it could support five bags for transfusion. The process began which lasted for less than ten minutes
Meanwhile outside of the dome. As the soldiers scatter and took on their respective positions. Souji's dumbfounded. "Hey, hey… Are you people trying to kill me? Fuck. I can't even have peace of mind because of you guys being so wary of me!"
"We're in position." A female voice rang from the communication device on the commanding soldier's right ear. "Maintain position." He replied.
While the others scattered. He remained at the back of the vehicle which now has fully halted. He then goes down to quietly and slowly approach the swordsman while holding his rifle up that then visibly emits a red glow as he's doing so.
"Hey!" Souji shouted. "I'm not an enemy!" Then let go of his hold on the katana. "I'm tired of fighting dammit!"
"Stay where you are! You're questionable! First of all, why are you outside the dome! Don't you know that there are monsters currently attacking?! Hell, that's even why we're here."
"Listen! Those people in there won't let me in! That's why!" They converse while the soldier approaches very slowly and is ready to fire at any given moment.
"If you're their people, why won't they let you in. They are fully aware that there are monsters over here. The alpha might even appear at any second."
"We've killed it!"
"Killed? As if…"
"I'm telling the truth, why are you not believing me?" He expressed with a serious face.
"Because you're suspicious."
"Goddammit… All I'm saying is I'm not going to fight, alright?"
"Ok then, first. On the ground!"
"Huh?"
"On. The ground!"
"What do you mean? There's nothing on the ground!"

"Now!"
"What the fuck are you talking about!"
"Take him down." The soldier whispered into the comms. "Roger."
The female soldier that replied since earlier then had her sniper rifle emit a purple glow and later, electricity of the same color replaced it. As she took aim the gun's then been fired that sent off a bullet clad in purple electricity that flew extremely fast towards Souji's chest.
Souji then retaliated by subsequently performing an iaijutsu that attacks horizontally and doing that he managed to slice the bullet into two and flew past behind him while the lower piece struck the ground which caused the ground to explode as the other went towards the unoccupied trees and is never heard of.
"Tsk! A monster with a weapon..." He then called on the soldiers. "Engage."
Firepower came from all sides in front of him and the only thing he could do is to evade and block the incoming projectiles.
The soldier in front of him then also began his assault. A huge fireball came from his rifle towards him. He could only block it since it is fast and has been fired off near him so he can't dodge it completely.
"F-fuck! I don't know much about this healing. I just hope I heal, please!"
The fireball then explodes which set a huge smoke cloud and a barrage of bullets came following. A huge rock has then came out of nowhere hurling into the smoke that is subsequently sliced off into many pieces the moment later as Souji came out with a few holes on his already tattered clothes but has no visible injury.
Souji then disappeared before their eyes, with trees covering Souji partnered with his speed. They could not react as he infiltrated their positions.
"Ahh!!!" A soldier reacted before he's knocked out by a blunt strike from the katana's blade.
"Eight o'clock!" The three nearby soldiers turned towards the direction but Souji's speed outmatched them and are all knocked out in different manners. Souji then arrived behind another soldier who's on high alert and quickly pulled out a combat knife to attack that Souji easily defended against and returned the favor by punching him that sent him flying across the trees. The remaining seven soldiers then arrived onto the higher branches and completely encircled him except for the commander. They open fired and there are magic used all around as bullets to achieve different effects. Souji ran away as they followed him although couldn't match his speed. "This guy really is a monster. No human should be able to do that without a suit. But why is he not killing anybody?" The commander thought to himself.
"I'm just trying to incapacitate you but you're trying to kill me?!" Souji then suddenly turned around faced them head-on. "Enough is enough." Since they're scattered. He had to go through the trouble of picking them off one by one. But since they are all within the line of sight of each other. They could aim at Souji who's currently outnumbered. Souji managed to take out one while others keep firing onto him. The soldiers are visibly panicking but also feeling relieved that Souji's not killing anyone.
Souji keeps trying to catch them but is intercepted every single time by another member. Until the commander shouted. "Stop!" The fighting stopped and a voice of an old man has been heard from the distance. Which startled all of them.

Blightbane
Miscellaneous Notes: - I want to see about making a crude map of Shroud to help readers. - I also want to get back to writing Coalescence updates. Schedule Notes: - None for now, updates when I can. [ Thank you for your patience and support as I improve my writing and storytelling abilities. I'm also using this story to better develop lore that extends far beyond it. ] Thanks to another exceptionally talented artist, Hiroeth, Blightbane now has an official cover! Vera was alone again. “You’re completely unprepared. Never before has sending one of you off made me feel quite so guilty.” Whenever she found herself in doubt, she would weigh her actions against the guiding principles of the one whom she revered. “When you don’t know the rules of the game, start making them up. When you are constrained by unfavorable conditions, inject a little chaos.” It was the supplementary message that concerned Vera the most. It was difficult to follow because it was intentionally vague and mired in subjectivity. “How can I enjoy myself when you look so tormented? Are we in danger?” Vera fell silent. An experiment is taking place on a planetary scale. Across the surface of the planet, a phenomenon referred to as "Blight" is spreading. Festering regions defended by fierce creatures called “blightbeasts” taint the surface, warping the land and proliferating unceasingly. Among the sentient creatures of the planet, it is the Blightbane Guild’s responsibility to stem the tide. They endeavor to cleanse the land in a struggle of attrition, but they are losing ground. A young man named Caim has been uprooted from his former life and transported to The Shrouded Theocracy, an isolationist nation with fanatical policies. He must struggle to survive with only an unfamiliar strain of magic to aid him. There is a secret to this magic. One he knows very little about. He intends to explore just what makes this magic special. On the far border of the theocracy, a mage scientist named Inis discovers a revolutionary new way to infuse strength from defeated blightbeasts. Using herself as a test subject, this process allows her to grasp magical concepts previously thought beyond her reach. Though she tries to document any side effects that arise, something escapes her awareness. She is playing with a dangerous force that will claim her most treasured asset if she isn't careful. Everyone and everything on the planet is a part of the experiment. The experiment is a lie.

And a change of look for the out-of-place human!🐸 (and yes he's like 10, but it's not like I'm making them do a lot of crap😂 I had my first crush when I was 9 lol)(SOME THINGS FOLLOW THE ACTUALLY SHOW! Not everything though. I don't own the show or the characters. Most of this comes from my own imagination, or I've changed to go for my story. You are not forced to read it, so please don't put any hate in the comments)(I'm also not the best at writing, so some of it might be bland😂 I try)(Also, Yes. I know it's 'Fireflies' but I'm not changing it now😂) (JUST SO YOU KNOW! I am NOT a great writer! I am not good at thinking over things completely! I'm still trying to improve, but I am not an expert, or anywhere close to being so! There are a lot of open ended things in my stories, but most of them I just use to move forward! Please don't look too closely at my flaws😂 if you do, then that's all you'll see😂😅)
