"We can talk?."
Ender mumbled with a concerned expression, his hands trembling as he shakes his arms towards the anomaly creature. Zack and Ruis who were aside him glared at him like what the hell he's doing, is he retard?..
"You talking with a mindless creature?. What level of autism you have?."
"I think level 4. Right Ender?."
Zack spoke with his cheeks curved to his usual teasing smirked. Ender bit his lips as if he wanted to burn him up with a cooked reply, yet he spoke..
"This isn't called autism. It's called being sincere.."
Ender corners curved to a faint smirked before they curl back together.. This situation was serious not like any other scenario..
"I can talk with him!."
He yelled, moving his arms up and down to calm it down, as dark-blue aura emitted from him. Then gulping his throat he spoke in a unique, ancient language..
"We aren't your enemies here.. We just came here by mistake.. We want to escape from here.. Can you help us!?... We won't distrub you..."
The words travelled towards the creature, his eyes which were revolving all over the face, stopped for a moment as it grunts, saying in a language only Ender could understand.
"No mercy for Astrans..."
"What does that supposed to mean?."
Ender replied as his lips quivered, his eyes widened cause he didn't understand what it meant.. But a felling of something worse will happen was screaming all over his body..
Ruis and Zack who were aside him, confused; irritated why he was doing this.. Didn't knew what is coming... Even Ender...
As the creature whose big arm with large claws, burned up like molten steel as it swings his arm towards them. Then within an instant, five burning slashes like fire compressed in it emerged from the claws, rushing towards them at great speed..
~ Oh well.. That didn't work..
Ender wondering in this moment was quite ridiculous as Ruis came in front and extended both his arms, his hands emitted a faint blue aura. Within this moment, a series of ice formed within the air flowing in it like slippery tentacles collided with the slashes, managing to deflect them as one slash which was deflected goes through the cave itself. Slashing every matter, every atom within it's range.
Zack armour came along with him as he was gleaming a bright light like an archangel, angel.. His golden-red armor with his sword resting on his back as he draws it out..
Ender seeing both of them was quite nervous, his trame didn't meant to be physical in combat.. Thinking what he should do, he just crafted a ordinary sword here. Crafting and Concealment are the only two skills which depends on spirituality not dimensionality, even though there are many other essential skills which doesn't require dimensionality, but dimensionality boosts crafting..
The entity short arm which was compressed over a small area by slippery tentacles spreads out, now the sky was spread by countless slippery tentacles with each tentacle having yellow eyes, then claws emerged within those tentacles, now every tentacle had small molten claws as the entity swings his tentacles towards them.
Then countless small slashes spread over the air coming towards them at great speed, this time Zack came out in front, clenched his both hands to his sword, his word burning then taking his above his head then swings with a great roar.
"Disperse!."
A huge slash spread everywhere, engulfing those tiny slashes in itself, the entity leap out of the way then instantly came towards Zack, trying to struck his big, sharp molten claws on his chest but Zack managed to reflex just in time for it to deflect, as the numerous tentacles grabbed Zack and throws him away to the other side of cave.
BANG!
Zack collided with many rocks, boulders and stones, that he formed a hole where he was slammed. Rocks fell off the top because of the impact blocking the hole.. Ender precisely tried to swing his sword but Ruis stopped him by a leash of water. Saying..
"You forgot how you fight Zack!.Use your words!. Asshole!."
As ice tentacles formed which collided with the entity tentacles, Ender dodging many of both tentacles on his way to make a distance. He stood firm for a moment, his body preparing adrenaline, his hands trembling while clenching the sword hard, along with his feet, seeing Ruis fought so bravely with courage.. He feel envious.. Why he couldn't be like this?. Was he weak?.. Maybe it wasn't his purpose.. So what is his purpose?..
~ If I don't exist... Then why?. Why this unexplainable feeling is lingering over my body?... I hate this feeling..
As he throws the sword and charges himself up, and close his hands together, not touching, within this moment, words started forming around it as he spreads out these words to the entity, the words written was destroy..
The words contact with those tentacles and started cutting them, but as they cut those tentacles, they regenerate instantly..
"I fu*king knew it!. It can regenerate!."
Ruis shouted as the entity's tentacles were overwhelming him, he swiftly back off some yards..
While on the other side Zack was still in oblivion, still inside the hole as outside was blocked off by boulders..
Zack was dreaming of something as if tentacles contact made him lost in himself..
[ His Dream ]
Zack was unconscious as he gradually opens his hazel eyes, he was floating on empty void, his armour wasn't here with him. It was dark here and nothing was visible.
"What?. Weren't we fighting that thing?. How am I here?."
He wondered, floating in the endless void, he couldn't feel his zon, his spirituality.. Nothing as if everything was snatched from him.. But he didn't get scared, not even frowned... Just mumbled..
"He'll come.."
His lips curved to a faint smile..
[ Present scene ]
The entity suddenly curled back all the tentacles to it's short arm, seeing this Ender and Ruis who were moments ago clashing with their words and ice, got confused.. Their attacks disappeared thin air..
Aragh!
The short arm gradually began to be absorbed by the body, as when it got completely absorbed and entire arm was gone. Another arm began to erect from the shoulder as now it was the same arm as the other one.. It's long molten claws slowly coming to surface..
Arugh!
It let out a screech scream, horrifying and dreadful as if it had done playing with them. Ender and Ruis stepped back reflexively..
"We're done for.."
Ender murmured, his hands trembling..
"This isn't over yet!."
Ruis yelled as he extended both his arms and many huge bubbles, each size of the entity surrounded it like a tornado..
"Find it's blind spot!."
Ruis ordered Ender as many slashes swarmed out from the bubbles, blasting them on impact. Even though, Ruis made countless bubbles again, he couldn't move from here while using this ability, as a slash penetrated bubbles and heads towards him at great speed, Ruis sighs and as it was about to hit him.. It flowed through him..
It was as if his body became water itself for a moment as the slash which passed through him slash the entire chunks itself behind him.. While Ender while dodging the mindless slashes coming from almost every direction goes to the behind corner of the entity where it was doing everything to destroy the bubbles barrier tornado..
The tornado stopped and all the bubbles swarmed towards the entity, surrounding him from every corner..
"Now!."
Ruis exclaimed.. As Ender combined his both hands and spoke with resolute..
"Revel!."
A strong burst of energy shoots towards the entity, somehow it jumps from there and fusing both claws together it shoots a laser like attack, Ender managed to dodge it but Ruis was hit by it in his liver.. He coughs as if he's burning in intense heat as he fell down, the entity slammed on the ground, it's claws separate now as it goes towards Ender.
Ender summon a word weak which means to weak any opponent once they got slasheed by it. Stackable as well.. As he swings those words at entity precisely but it speed was so fast that it came around his blind spot.. Ender quickly shifted the word weak to sword so that it can work as a sword. Managing to clash with it just in time.
"Freeze!."
He ordered it but it felt like it didn't work as the entity penetrated him, his chest, his heart, his lower abdomen, blood poured from his lips as he coughs.. His arms relaxed as the entity cuts him again, this time a long burning claw ingrained in his chest.. Still standing, Ender felt as if he was being burned alive, heat so intense, he wanted to die..
"Damn, you bastard!."
Ruis punches the entity as it wents flying to the edge of the cave, as Ender fell in Ruis arms whom he gently out him down, even though Ruis knew Ender would survive because of immortality, his face was still concerned..
Ruis wounds haven't helped properly yet, it was screaming in pain, yet he sighs and took off his light-blue coat, dropping it to the ground as his glaze went towards the sword Ender had crafted, he picks the sword up..
The entity shook it's head, still growling, glaring at Ruis was standing alone right now.. It was true that in these moments, despair and awe were normal for ordinary people, yet Ruis sighs..
~ I'm not a knight like that burning knight, I'm scared as well too, in the end.. It's an instinct.. But survival is no matter what.. Even if I became a false knight.. A fake knight..
His bloody lips curved to a smile.. Oh Ruis Forst are you a false knight?.. Because that's a lie..
***
The door opens with brute force, as a huge man enters the room with a girl, the room was yellow color with many albums of weird creatures, human torture, and in the front was a locker case, with numbers digits..
Azon and Lisa examine the room for a while, Lisa checked the paintings while Azon straight goes to the locker. After trying some tries it didn't work as he sighs..
~ I can't even destroy it, it's made by a higher existence than me..
Since the locker belong to Warner, it makes sense that he crafted it or buy it from higher existence or his level and he was already 9th dimension being..
Lisa who was examining the painting found one album strange, it was quite light and when she tapped it, it felt like something hollow was inside there, as she placed her hands on both sides and lifted it up, her eyes widen to saw a hole perfectly size of the album size, in it were a old paper as she takes it out and placed the album on floor aside her..
Azon wasn't much surprised as if he had expected it as he extended his arm towards her, like as if he wanted the paper, as Lisa said with her lip corners curved to a smile..
"I'll do it myself.."
Azon gets up, offering her the position as Lisa sits and dials the code. '319064'..
The locker open as she extended her arm, slightly nervous to the unknown.. As she takes out a key.. A weird silver ruby elegant crafted key with a paper, she gets up as Azon came aside her, she give the key to him while unfolding the paper, which said, their eyes widen up as if something was hidden..
'Basement's key.'
"There's a basement here, but on the reports and overall Mr Warner mansion details, basement wasn't even mentioned anywhere.."
Lisa tone darkened, her ruby eyes gleaming as she clenched the paper..
"Well until the boys will come, we have to find that basement.."
Azon said with a sigh before getting out of the room, Lisa stand there for a moment, as she tears the paper apart before leaving the door, the door opened as a witness...
