Tobi: I didn't think that you let them see that weapon?
Nameless: What I showed was just a total replica yet she almost grasped it too bad it was not a complete one.
Liliana: You sis sometimes I think that you're crazy, had a masochistic tendency to see your siblings having a hard time when giving them a personal coaching, you know that every original weapon of hunters had a toll. Even though it's a replica I am quite scared of the backslash or toll of it.
Tobi nodded
Nameless had replied: If I don't do it, who else. You had seen our life right and they also had the life experience of our pops. They knew that reality was different, it's not always according to your plan. You just need to be strong, look at Gladiia she never argues yet the two also did not complain. They know that they were born as a hunter, their life is not complete if they never had a fulfilling hunt. The passive effects of that replica that she had seen was not as excessive as the original, I just set it at random if any of them was to recreate it. Let's see what the toll of that incomplete weapon is, hmmm? ehhh she had bad luck, it was the holder's satiety will decrease drastically and the toll to offset it before holding was to eat a ton of food.
Tobi scratches the back of his head and then walking straight up in the kitchen, he needed to add more food for their dinner.
Liliana: That's crazy for her, I think she was now on the verge of tears.
Nameless called her dad in the kitchen just to say it out loud. Pops just cook some fast food cuisine, I already cook a lot you know. Replying to her that everyone's appetite was big so it's ok for him to add more.
Larg: Eh looks like my candidate, her points are rising up in that encounter.
Soel: It's too early to judge, let's just watch and see. Why do we need to watch different scenarios? Looks like Specter will be carrying the fight?
Pika pi "Young boss, do they have inventory?"
Nameless pauses, they had I think Specter felt the shifting of her IRL inventory to that space inventory that I created and sorted its content.
Munch "Surely there is food in there?"
Genga "And it happens" Everyone shifting their gaze at the Screen projecting Skadi.
Tobi was just busy yet he had already taught his kids how to deal or win a fight.
...…
Their enemy's instinct was to survive yet their eyes were fixed at Skadi that in trance like she was thinking something.
Specter shouts: Nee-san inventory even though she already knew the content of it that had been shifted or that replaced their IRL one she still said it.
When the wolves that were fighting Skadi heard her they instantly moved, wanting to interfere yet a loud sound of hunger echoes in this desert domain that's their que. While the three other wolves blocked Specter who tried to move instantly to cover up her sister disappeared in her spot teleporting her to the other side of this domain. She block the maw of space wolf that did it, putting more force to sway the wolf that already cut the space with it claws and shove it inside creating a space crack on both her side, a claw piercing strike yet she slide herself for a maneuver her body down for the claw attacks to miss and gave her an opportunity to kick its lower jaw hard enough to send it flying to the two who moving around creating a series of magic circle.
Specter: damn it, she had analyzed it upon seeing it. A confinement magic to seal themselves with her.
The shadow wolf moves expanding its authority, its shadows move like it had a life forming hands and weapons rushing to Skadi. The holy wolf was now wearing armour made of light, appearing a meter at the back of Skadi and conjuring holy chains to bind her then readying a claw strike that already formed a massive holy sword.
The lightning wolf regulated its power to conjure a soul equipment, a projectile launcher, aiming and charging at Skadi.
The one who controls earth had no choice to join in a melee fight, it was just there. Elementalization using iron sands forming itself into a huge wolf head with a grinder mouth with a delay pattern if the two miss their attack yet it knows the main body is readying also a huge move.
The main body is in the sky, its body radiates too much, aura like solar flare gushing out forming an orb like a sun yet with a skill to step in the void and gripping it readying a strike charge. The sky above it changes starting to a small circle expanding up soon the starry sky was there, not far nor near. Planets slowly dropped yet the main body was like the center of gravity maintaining them in position. A miniature galaxy, this wolf is not done yet howling and recreating a small black hole, biting to reform it as a new blade. A blackish blade that devours anything. Each planet shakes and cracks like a ticking time bomb yet the main body holds them not making them explode, this was an armageddon nope its a domain annihilation strike, it didn't care anymore about its copies, the hyper instinct to survive.
The climate intensified, boosting her enemies' attack power but for some reason for her everything was so slow. Using her mind power to check her new inventory but upon setting it to the category of food she only sees two kinds of edibles, knitting her eyebrow upon manifesting a certain one. well well she was holding the incomplete sword in her right so she catches the food with her left, a hardened bread, the classic. She wanted to cry without tears, she didn't bite it yet ignoring the incoming attacks. Pulling the other edible thing in her inventory that floats in front of her a bottle of golden liquid, it was a hot delicious honey.
The bottle uncups itself while hovering, pouring the honey enough to cover half of the hardened bread. She had a small mouth, she couldn't bite it in half, only a small part but of course her teeths didn't even have enough power because of her hunger. The hard bread was like a paste in her mouth, using her tongue to lick the honey "rero rero rero" to soften that part of the bread she had bit, the honey made her energize a little now there was a trace of happiness in her eyes. Gripping the weapon she holds ready to fight back, she didn't even know that a certain Gengar was laughing so hard in IRL.
Nameless shared a small screen to her father that busy cooking, Tobi only smiled like he was watching a gag fantasy funny situation.
Liliana sighed: Quite harsh just to put food like that.
Nameless: it's not my fault, the two should start in a lab or a medical room then go out of the woods, farm mats, cook food, find treasures and so on like it was an MMO but this situation is different who made them do something that made Gladiia mad.
Pika "I record it, who wants a copy"
Larg: just hide it, a nice thing to use in black mailing her.
Munch "don't be like that guys"
Soel: Use it to train her anger management. Surely she's gonna piss off upon seeing the video.
Nameless: just hide it for a while, let's continue to watch. All of them ignoring the Gengar that is trying itself to stop laughing.
...…
She disappeared in her spot in a speed making the wolves frozen in time, in how the heck a mortal tier was able to contain a large area in a time matrix domain. Nope it was a subtle pause, appearing above the holy wolf and aligning her attack where the shadow wolf is, Skadi's normal sword swing - vertical crushing blow. Even though each wolf had their own barriers her attacks penetrated it cutting the holy wolf in half yet it had entered elementalization to survive and her attack stopped the encroachment of shadow also injuring the shadow wolf that was able to move a little to dodge.
A massive electromagnetic beam laser shot at her yet she parried it normally, redirecting it to the sand structure of an earthen wolf maw that was just a few meters for it to eat her up. The earthen wolf wailed for that damage it had taken, diving back to the sand.
Again she flickered ignoring the earthen wolf that had retreated appearing next to the injured shadow wolf readying a simple cut to decapitate it but something blocked her.
Like I thought so you also govern death, yes the thing blocking her was a shadow being that slowly emerging in the beast shadow. The area that covered of its shadow, undead soldiers arise and different type of golems from small size to a giant golem dragon were conjured by the earthen wolf, of course Skadi didn't care of it all along seeing the sharp gaze of the shadow wolf retreating and merging like a cloth to the earthen wolf and with a millisecond using her left hand materializing an huge aura hand grabbing the golden chains that shot at her then pulling the Holy wolf in the end of it with a force that it cannot be understand. Within her range and those armies emerging she fastly took a small movement. She always dreams about it, her dad's life, why he never called himself a swordmaster nor a swordsman. The answer was simple, every sword art or technique had a starting point. Yes that's how it is, everything was just a cut, a slash, a stab, a pierce, a swing from vertical to horizontal.
A single stroke to cleans up the holy wolf. The shadow that ate the area, those undead rising and golems disintegrated. The combine wolf appeared on her top with a massive aura form of multi claw strike yet she jumped and moved forward to collide with its massive body, the attack was like the one moving not to touch her. A stab piercing the barrier aiming at its core creating a hole in its body. A double killing and upon landing she looks up, seeing the main body was in a charging state, she smiles yet she moves her sword to block something. It was a large paw covered in lightning applying a force she pushed it back, turning 360 in instantly with her sword, she made a flash strike in the incoming bite attack of this wolf, a hack slash down cutting in half vertically the lightning wolf.
Even though the main body was receiving the feedback from those copies that died to increase its attack power. removing the hardened bread from her mouth and throwing it up then she looked up again opening her mouth to catch it, changing her teeth like a shark yet she was an orca lover. The whole bread was being crushed inside her mouth until she swallowed it.
Now then here it comes, the ripple of space shifted, the main body descends in speed of sound, a total full strike at her and also to destroy this domain yet it will never happen.
She only did a simple cut upward like she was cutting up the air until she turned around like she ignored the enemy. Renewal Art: Skadi's Original Series - Judgement, Sky Splitter, a lesser version of her own Heaven's splitter.
The whole domain was cut vertically yet it never lost its function. A clean cut like it was unexisting one yet something made the domain not to detach or to divide into two, there was no darkness of the night, only a bright horizon was left with no clouds in the sky and the main body of the entity disappeared without any traces.
Skadi looks at the sword replica that slowly breaks, turning to dust shaking her head as she walks in this empty desert to the place where Specter was. Ah, even though the main body was gone, she can feel Specter and her enemies that look like they got buff so hard. The sound of her hungry stomach made her stop, to crouch down then draw circles several times yet she still stands to walk to her path opening her inventory of this place to pull a set of hard bread and honey.
Contemplating, she loves to read comics and books as her pastime. Why do those characters always love huge moves? What a hassle not like me who just brandished a sword that had enough power to cut a world. Ah, why do I think about those yet she moves the hardened bread covered with honey in front of her mouth, using her tongue to lick tasting it before biting it with her sharpen teeths.
Maybe because of how she understood everything about her dad's experience yet she didn't know it was just a half of an iceberg, She was purer no her spirit was because she was hatch with his blood essence and soul blood. She's still far away from the existence called a bystander yet she was on the right track of being a hunter. Ah, wait how did dad slash up to chaos year numbers in a second when he was still young back then, she froze in her spot yet her eyes were shining, enlightened? Then after a few seconds she started to move again, her vibe improved after that.
Nameless who was watching was happy, her thoughts: That's right Skadi, no one will think that cutting, stabbing, slashing, piercing and etc. is only possible with a sword or a weapon. You got the real answer, soul, aura, intent and any power in your disposal can be its alternative. That's why bystanders chant those words "I Am a Weapon".
...…
Specter side, she was busy dodging ice beams, icicle shards, water polos and any magic projectile from the properties of ice and magic. The ice and water wolf already entered elementalization, like a mist covering the whole sealed area she was trapped in. The space attribute wolf was the only visible to her.
The barrier was up, debuff like slow and etc. was being casted upon her yet of course she was an affected that's how an entity is.
Parrying some of the attacks from the three made her weapon durability low. The halberd broke in half yet there was a smile on her face, the space wolf noticed it so it created a multi partial rift surrounding her. It vanishes, this wolf starts its barrage of attacks at her using the rift as portal, jumping out attacking her, jumping in changing its positions attacking her again and again.
She was now dancing at the palm of the three wolves, holding the two broken parts of her weapon then banging it to each other, reforming to a rod. Having a small space for her to stand straight, she slammed the tip of the rod nope it as a Threaded Cane to the ground. An echo reverberates in the entire sealed area cancelling the elementalization of the two wolves and erasing the mist. This causes the wolves to be stun locked in their position.
Like I said the three of you were a bad match to me, she had a mocking smile at her cute face. Instantly changing the cane to its whip life form, waving then swirling it at the direction of her enemies, like a vacuum pulling everything in her front yet this method was not just a suction to pull her enemies, this was a grinder because every time she spins it completing a revolution a series of thin slashes flew to the direction of the three giant wolves.
The wolves elementalization was being negated yet they had the endurance to withstand the pulling force of Specter attack and move at a normal speed even with that suction force. The ice wolf shot mirrors like icicles at Specter yet Specter didn't budge she could control the wind force of her technique to change the direction of the incoming attack but that also made the ice and water wolf move. The ice shard that misses becomes the transportation point of the ice wolf, same with the water wolf both instantly materialize in her both sides. Two huge maw was just in inch to split her apart, In a millisecond to respond she changed back the whip to its cane form. Like a sword, she envelopes it with her weapon intent turning to an image of a cane being covered by a blade aura.
Breath of thunder, Renewal arts - Blading radiance: Annihilate. A scattered selfish stance with no lagging pace unleashing a series of sword waves aiming to her three opponents, the two nearest wolf was being butchered not even touching the ground like both were just in mid air being locked by those sword waves that slowly cut every meat in their bodies and blood splashing everywhere, a nasty scene. The space wolf who keeps dodging had tried to rip the space near the two to pull them as rescue yet the sword waves cut through space too negating it.
In that moment of being killed the wolves felt something, Specter sighed, stopping her attacks because the two wolves were suddenly being covered by a barrier.
Tsk, sis how come you already finish on your side. She knows it, feedbacks and upgrades for the three after those wolves that Skadi fighting are already dead.
She flickered, distancing herself from her opponents. She felt her movement slows down, the space wolf attains it second typing. Time manipulation yet it still fails like a mirror that cracks down, the time binding brokes. In her area a huge move shot at her, a lotus made of ice and fire, a nuke AoE type magic. The water wolf had become sharp nope it had now an intent, its projectiles were now informed of sword waves thin enough for a regular being to see.
Specter: Eh, you know I had a question: does magic can harm an entity's body? it's for the three wolves to answer. For her, having experienced or seen the life of her father, he or their existence the so called bystanders. They all never doubt or question the reasons of their existence, for her they are "unique" for them they never question every world's righteousness that they had visited. They had a plain path, a body and mind that was always on the battlefield. Invincible against anything.
Standing firmly plans to withstand the incoming attacks with her body, putting the cane to her left hand yet there was a wicked smile on her face. Steel is my body yet the sound of golden bell echoes, those attacks were ineffective at all to her but she still made some hand gestures to deflect those sword waves, everytime she did that she absorbed spirit essence around her and created 5 spirit obs rotating around her.
The space wolf is already in contact, a massive void claw striked to flatten her yet she asks, how many times did jump back in time. 10 or maybe a thousand but you failed right, she can see the time mark in her eyes but she knows it failed, turning it just a subtle like it was a future sight.
Iron hand combined with a palm technique called investigate, a physical attack depends on the defense of the target and it never misses. The huge claw or the whole limbs that the space wolf uses to perform that attack was destroyed, ignoring the blood and meat scattered. The passing huge body of this wolf drops to the ground next to her, a minute of losing consciousness because of shock, the opportunity for a consecutive attack.
Specter instantly uses body relocation to move to its side aiming for the core then performing a triple true thrust, 1st penetrating the aura barrier, 2nd the hardened fur then piercing the whole body of the cane that had been covered by her aura Nen-Qi in it flesh deep enough to destroyed the core that was in the middle of its heart. It happened too fast without even a sound so clean like a professional with damaging the surrounding yet the other two wolves didn't waver.
Adding keen sense to improve her perception in reading the trajectory of the two wolves bombardments then applying her aura up to 70% in her hand and cane. The wolves are already in carnage, the ice wolf recreated a huge sword made of ice yet a trace of fire radiates in it, sharpness of each attack cuts through space but Specter just deflects and redirects it to a different direction, same with the water wolf.
So the awakening of the typings can be passed to the others, she can see it. The water left eye had a clock ticking in it yet she said to them, do you think I didn't see. Yes there was a huge time clock, its pointers were slowly moving in reverse. This is not reversing in time but fishing someone in the past putting them in the present, both wolves know even if they jump back it was either the enemy was the same or different nor it was there to begin with. Of course the result was a different timeline in which both Skadi and Specter were not in that line. These wolves had pride; they didn't want that result; it was just an escape.
Specter: if I didn't kill that wolf the process should be faster than this. Like a samurai she holds the cane tightly without aiming because of how the two wolves move faster than her. Hacking down faster than anything turning around slashing horizontally "it was Gekko: Moonlight" continuing the combo with another full 360 horizontal slash "Maget: Full Moon" The attacks of the wolves nullified. The force of her attack made the two wolves pause for a full minute, she flickered instantly in front of the ice wolf yet this wolf was able to react.
A multi attack, it even created afterimages in performing different forms of sword technique aiming at this small figure.
Changing the cane to its whip form, she too matched it in terms of speed and power she didn't lose but winning by pushing back this wolf. The sound of breaking, yes the wolf weapon in its mouth crumbled. The whip tip broke it in half then Specter retracted it a little to change its direction wrapping it to the neck of this wolf until it reached to lock its mouth, using this form she turned around to throw this being hard to a certain area she wanted to.
It was just a minute of high speed fight, this wolf landed heavily two meters at her creating a small cracked hole in the ground, she didn't let this wolf a chance appear at the top center of its body readying a punch.
The 5 rotating spirits around her mix to her small fist, her whole mana and applying more aura Nen-Qi, she punches it down. A chinese lettering made of mana, the whole sky turned to dark within a second returning back to its normal sky just to illuminate those words "Asura Strike" combing with a huge sound of explosion.
She jumps out of the huge hole created by her punch, locking her sharp gaze at the last remaining wolf that is also glaring at her with madness.
The eye with a clock was bleeding, she knows that this wolf sped up the process of the time magic in the sky with a toll. She just smiles because she needs to finish it instantly, returning the whip to its cane form.
Liquidation, this wolf becomes a tsunami with those intent mixes in it, enough to harm a tier above its own. Specter looks at the huge wave that fastly approaching her position, ignoring the tickling sound of the clock above as she makes her move.
I'm not a sword who can cut anything but I Am a weapon. She wanted to smash everything here so she changed the cane, it deformed turning to a black silk weaving its own creating two black gloves that auto equips itself to its maker. She had no mana left so everything was decided now was the power of her physical body in tier 1. Taking a stalwart stance, a minor body endurance buff to boost her physical defence attributes, to withstand and her movements will never be interrupted by the attack incoming at her.
Every move is deadly, she rushes to collide it from an elbow strike to consecutive different forms of boxing techniques that she called multifold retribution frontal assault, continuing non stop moving forward pushing the wave on how her attack created shockwaves that even the space quakes. In how a small child was able to press this amount of water like she was compressing it into a single location, there is something else in her punches. On how fast her attacks generated a friction of heat, evaporating a certain amount of water elements upon contact, the water wolf cannot keep up to maintain its skill against her.
She prepared a hand chop move, her hand speed was so fast that created a fiery and lightning aura, a combustion move. A red aura cross slash was pointed in the area where all the water waves gathered, the howling of a creature that had been de-elementalize yet it withstanded her attack. She didn't let it recovered appearing below its maw a perfect spot for a death uppercut fist sending the creature up banging it to the sealing of the seal and there is more she jump so fast, putting 100% of her aura in her right hand she made a punch, her own serious punch.
When the last creature disintegrated and the time-magic clock circle brokes. She landed safely then she heard a clap clap and a sound of munching or eating a hard cracker 2 meters away and a gaze looking at her back.
Specter: Nee-san when did you arrive? She turned around knitting her eyebrows upon seeing Skadi's appearance with her sharp teeth demolishing the bread she was holding.
Skadi finished eating while licking her hands she said: You know what, pointing her eyes then pointing up she continued, all along we are fighting an avatar.
Specter initially applied her Aura Nen-Qi Gyo in her eyes and looked up in the clear sky, she saw it. A young cub, a gray puppy with 9 heads looked down at them and soon the two heard a female voice.
Female Voice: So there you are Gladius? What are you doing here in the basement? Master had put you in the backyard to be her emergency alarm beacon or notification if those entities woke up and tried to attack the dream again.
Yet both only heard the cub barking before vanishing in their view, at that moment both heard a congratulation with a blue panel notification screen in their front.
Specter was happy, shifting her gaze that should have been at Skadi was replaced by something else. A plane red surface already touched her whole body, something hit her and a huge force threw her up then the feeling of being dropped in a high place landing in waters, that's the feeling she had received.
Skadi just dropped her shoulder upon a sighed, the being that made that attack was a modeled mechanical doll, in the same height and physical form wielding a huge red toy hammer that slowly getting smaller and smaller becoming a regular size toy hammer.
Skadi: Why does my family always result to violence just to kick us out of a domain or a world paradox. She still remembers everything that Nameless had done in that timeline, the feeling of defeat waiting to be struck by the doll yet it didn't come. Tilting her head again to look at the doll that didn't attack but slowly approaching her.
Inches apart this doll pushes her hard and without resistance, her vision blurred, she stumbles dropping not in the ground nope her blurred view changes then something catches her. When her actual vision recovered, only seeing Koko who was holding her up with both hands smiling at her and a few seconds of Koko checking her up, feeling satisfied she slowly put her down.
Skadi looks at the Koko that walks in straight to the kitchen area with a confused face before she calls and asks Koko, she hears a chuckle a few centimeters from her. She turned and looked in that direction of course it was Specter lying down facing the ceiling, she walked to her then looked down at her smiling face like Specter got a massive breakthrough.
Skadi: Mhmmm, in a few seconds three Pokemons joined her.
Specter? wut the *ell all of you looking at me like an animal in the zoo? You guys know, it leaves a bad after taste in the mouth if a tier below entity looks down upon you. That puppy, the moment I entered that dream I will butchered it. Skadi and the Pokemons nodded, then walked out of her view, which made her confused, again it was replaced by Nameless. She looks at her and shakes her head then next was Liliana she only smiles but walks out while laughing.
Specter sat and saw them going into the dinning area, it's time for them to eat supper. You guys are bullying innocent people yet someone hand touched her back and this being walked next to her, shifting her gaze it was the black mokona.
Larg: You know that the moment Skadi and you entered that domain to fight, Skadi already detected that puppy who was watching and because of suddenly entering combat she forgot to tell you.
Soel stood on her other side continuing it: Tobi always said never underestimate any being so why did you even turn off your perception or limiting it in a certain range, you had concealment not just a normal concealment but was taught by your dad the 1st bystander.
Specter: Ah another sermon, she stands and stretches up. You two know that it's quite taxing to a baby like me, I'am not even 1 year old in age to maintain an EN perception on that scale.
Larg patted her: Tobi gave you two a training regime, Skadi can do it yet because of you being lazy every morning skipping half of it leading to this situation.
Soel: let's go eat, tomorrow if you don't wake up at that time I had no choice but to give you the Bonk System and throw you to a planet that had a crazy setting, of course with Tobi's permission.
Seeing the two mokana leaving her and comprehending their words made her rush into follow them yet the dining area was changed to a japanese style one with a large kotatsu table for a large family.
She didn't move to her designated sitting spot to eat but to Tobi who was busy distributing the foods equally with Koko assisting him.
Tobi felt someone tugging his jeans, he was a huge man looking down only seeing Specter looking up at his face.
Tobi: What's the matter?
Specter: Pa Soel is a meanie, Soel plans to put a crazy system on me.
Tobi: ? What kind of system?
Specter: It's called the Bonk System.
Tobi: Mhmmm, eh that one well it's possible to put it on you for you to change a little but seeing her face becoming darker he laughs then continues. Just joking, you're still small, you're not in the right age to receive a system like that yet he looks at where Soel is only receiving a thumbs up.
Specter also looks in that direction yet he hears him. See Soel was joking. Soon Tobi carries her up and puts her next to Skadi who is already eating.
Tobi: don't neglect your training starting tomorrow ok if you don't want to be left by everyone especially from your other brothers and sisters that are still in their eggs. He only sees Specter scratching her cheeks but nodding at him then she also picks up her chopsticks to eat. Tobi called Lim the homie BASS.
Lim: Thanks for calling boss, boss there something arrived for you. It's from my maker.
Tobi: Just eat 1st, give it to me later. Lim salutes at him and flies to her spot. Koko you go too, the next portion is yours and last is mine. Thinking about the thing that Lim had said and calculating something, he paused and muttered so it's time for a roll call for those beings she had put a contract. A big movement, let the middle realm shivered. Surely she will send someone to assist me. It's not my forte to do this kind of work.
