The sky is getting dark, as if a heavy rain would soon fall from the skies.
The train, despite everything, still remained on the tracks, at a much reduced speed than it was before impacting with Maidel magic. Everything but his carcass had become ashes scattered in the air. Maidel leaves the front of the tracks and walks a small open field right next to the tracks.
Maidel - I don't know why ... But I feel like it's not over yet ...
Eleanore, only 15, entered the ranking of the best hunters of the decade; today, at 23, she is still an excellent hunter, she has only one weakness, the excessive use of skills. For those who do not know the skills with swords, "Moon Light" sucks the vitality and energy of the host a lot, and Eleanore's family is famous for being terrible hunters, because her family has a reputation for not being able to live very long, any "curse" surrounds this family, as everyone, including Eleanore, has little energy, and forcing the skills shortens their life span. Eleanore for example, in addition to using so many techniques, mainly the "wind expansion" she ended up being extremely exhausted, unable to use her techniques for weeks.
Today, on the train, we suffer a terrorist attack. I didn't even feel the attack coming, and certainly no one in the other cars did. It had been a person, that someone to Eleanore.
Before we got on the train, Eleanore recited a technique, she quoted - << Himitsu no kaze no tekunikku: Fūjin no koe >> (secret wind technique: The grandmother of the wind god.) Later, seconds before the train was devastated , I could feel a strong chill in the belly, after that, quickly, Eleanore pulled her sword from its sheath that was right next to her chair and shouted:
Eleanore - << Kaze no tekunikku: Kaze no shōheki! >> (Wind technique: Wind barrier)
I didn't understand why Eleanore activated her Moon Light, that's when, in the next instant, Maidel's magic passed through us, devastating everything and everyone around us, and then I could understand Eleanore's reasons.
Undoubtedly, that Eleanore skill, prevents the future, at least it seems.
Then the magic that passed through us, an explosion. This explosion threw us off the train. A few minutes have passed since this explosion, we are out of the train, with the "wind barrier" ability still activated, eleanore prevailed on her feet, but her expression was of exhaustion, she can pass out at any moment.
In Eleanore's thoughts:
Eleanore - * "The voice of the God of the wind" is a skill that allows me to predict a possible danger in the future, as soon as it detects the danger for me, I feel a chill from head to toe. It is a long-term skill that drains your vital energy, but as we have been on this train for some time, it sucked a lot from me, as I activated it before boarding the train and has remained active until then. Fortunately I was awake at the time of this attack, at least I saved someone ... "
The wind barrier breaks and Eleanore falls to the ground, collapsing on the spot.
Emilia - Eleanore ..! That's not ... You ... You can't ... !! I can't face such an enemy alone ...!
I hear footsteps coming towards us, I get up and pull one of my two swords in my scabbard.
I take a step back and the smoke rises from the disaster covers the place around me.
I take three more steps back and leave where the smoke was covering. Then someone also slowly comes out of the smoke. It was a person, that someone was all dressed in black, he wore a mask that covered his face, only his eyes were exposed, I could see in his eyes that they contained tremendous hatred. The individual creates a magic bow just by extending his hands.
Maidel - it will be your end ...!
Emilia - I'm not afraid of a cowardly archer.
Maidel attacks using the bow, while the arrow is still coming towards me, I throw myself to the side, a small part of where I was, explodes mine by throwing away.
Maidel - Don't think you will be able to get close to me.
I get up, and continue advancing on Maidel as she tries to speak to me, I run towards her so fast that she doesn't even have time to activate her magic bow. I have the sword in my hand, I was convinced that I would cut the girl from the waist from the left side making a huge cut, Maidel uses his right arm to pull a knife on the left side of the waist, using the sword to defend himself from my attack , our blades clash, and from that came an impact and an impasse.
We were facing each other, we were both aware that one of us had to die here.
Maidel uses his right leg to kick me in the face, but with his left arm I grab his leg and then kick the leg that was serving as a support. Maidel falls headfirst on the floor, she tries to get up, but I kick her in the belly, throwing her away, about 2 meters from me.
She, furiously gets up, and extends her hand, and in less than 2 seconds her magic bow reappears, she fires, but instead of being just an arrow to shoot, three appeared in place of one that split into train parts.
I turn and throw myself back so the arrows don't catch me. An arrow passed before my eyes, the other two got lost and hit the ground. I lift my head, but as soon as I look at it, Maidel had already shot another arrow, I try to use the sword to defend myself from the attack, but the shock with the arrow threw me away.
I am thrown against the roof of a small abandoned wooden hut, Maidel steps forward and jumps on top of me with the intention of sinking the knife into me. I wake up and roll to the side, the maidel knife dug into the floor, she was trying to get the knife off the floor until I took advantage of this opportunity. I get up and, from this opening, I punch her in the face, throwing her off the top of the cabin.
Maidel falls from the shore against the ground, she feels the impact but soon she pulls herself together and jumps up. I jump off the hut and leave on top of her, she pulls one that was on her leg and also advances on me. I put more strength in the attack, she tries to retaliate the attack but the knife escapes her hand, I prepare another attack, the sword passes through her face, but at the last second she dodges throwing her face back.
After that comes the result of my attack. I made a cut in her mask, the mask leaves her face, she removes her hood and shows who she really was, she is an elf.
Elves are described as beautiful and luminous beings, or divas, magical beings, similar to the literary image of fairies. they were greater deities of nature and fertility. Elves are generally depicted as young men of great beauty living among the forests, under the earth, in fountains and other natural places. They were portrayed as sensitive beings, of long life or immortality, with magical powers and great connection with nature.
We both move towards each other and again our blades collide, Maidel quickly pulls out another knife, only now from inside her punch, she made the attack, she was going to cut off my head, but I get down and her knife goes direct. I see an opening, take advantage of the favorable situation for me and hit it in the face, throwing it on the tracks.
Maidel gets up, looks at his own and sees blood dripping from his nose, the blood falling into his hand. The floor was stained with his blood.
Maidel - I admit ... You are smarter than I thought, I really underestimated you ... Emilia.
Emilia - thanks… Wait, how do you know my name ?! Wait..!! Why are we really fighting?
Maidel - My name is Maidel and don't be silly, I will kill you here and now.
Emilia - well ... Your tantrum killed dozens of innocents, even without understanding what is happening, I will have to put an end to you, so that those you killed can rest in peace.
I pull the second sword from the scabbard, I have acted with both swords in hand. This Elf will be the first opponent with which I will use both swords.
Maidel - I say the same ...
Maidel pulls another knife out of his punch.
Emilia - what ...?
Maidel and I were holding two blades each, she with her two knives and I with my two swords.
My breath is labored, my mission is to protect Eleanore and take her safely to the south base, and I cannot allow an elf to stand in my way.
The freezing rain finally falls. She also brought a strong wind with her, and with that strong wind, I could see two things change in me.
First, the vision that became more blurred; second that I could feel my body getting a little heavier.
I think that this may slightly influence the final result of this battle.
As soon as the rain weakens a little, I have a vision of Maidel, and Maidel has a vision of me. We both started on top of each other with more energy than before. Now is to kill or die.
To be continued…
