6 Sneaking

First of all, thank you for comments.

So, well. I guess I was not clear enough in chapter 6. So, I will try to be more clear next time lol.

I just wanted to everyone guess only one woman at FATE universe, but damn... my bad sorry :/

Either way. Here is chapter 7 and the next chapter is gonna be EPIC if I could write well.

Heh, who I'm kidding? I'm great! OFC it will be EPIC!

AND~~ I WILL EXPLAIN IN THE NEXT [EXPLANATION CHAPTER] WHO IS THE NEXT WOMAN IN FATE UNIVERSE!

------------------------------

SORA

That single name was in Atilla's mind all day. After he heard what have they...

...Or he done to their sister, he wanted to rush and kill him instantly.

...Slowly, painfully and brutally.

But, no. He could not kill Sora directly. Might be a pity, but he had to wait to cool his head. He could not rush to kill him.

He needed a plan, a plan to capture the councilman Sora without killing innocence or best killing him while evading unnecessary casualties.

Even he did not know if he could manage to wait for a plan, so he was rushing to find one.

...How can he kill Sora without someone noticing 'Atilla' was the one who murdered Sora?

'A mask?' he thought. No, not mask enough would not do. He needed to hide his body altogether.

'A cloak and a mask?' he thought again. It would hide his body and face, but what would he use against them?

Okay, he found a disguise, clearly forgotten he could've henge to someone because of his anger. But with what weapon will he fight with?

He was a spearman. A long two-meter red spear was his primary weapon, and also he could hit his target with a bow like a damn goddess Artemis. Still, after he destroyed the famous underground organization named 'The Hands of Darkness,' his skills were known by many.

So, what could he do? He put his right hand to the side of his head to found a more comfortable stance, but a clash of metal sound picked his interest.

He saw the weapon on his right arm with wide eyes. He stood still for a short brief.

After blinked a few times.' YES!' He screamed in his head. "[Cross Tail] will do," he smirked with war lust. The dark aura around him fell on the chair he was sitting like a solid metal weight.

[Cross Tail], one of the most useful teigu in Akame ga Kill universe. Many almost invisible wires could cut a person, or even he could use them as a shield if it was necessary.

He sighed. He still had time, but he had to be sure how much he had.

He looked at the rising moon. It was midnight, and the roads of Dragnof's were empty.

He, more or less, had a little more than five or six hours to kill that man just before the folks got out to their houses.

Now, he had to find a cloak and mask. The night was young and ready to shed crimson.

-----------------------------------------

[Schene Change]

At the Councilman Sora's palace, several guards were standing at the main entrance with awe and dread.

In a typical day, they would be relaxed and possibly sleepy as hell.

...But today was different.

In the past days, they heard Councilman Sora's anger towards the man named Atilla Volkan.

He was mad at him to giving power to 'ungrateful' Queen Irene and having all the glory at war himself.

But what was wrong with that? He singlehandedly destroyed the enemy army, captured the general and finished the war.

...All by himself.

As if that was not enough, he destroyed the infamous underground organization named 'the hands of darkness,' too.

He killed them with his unique red spear and archery. In a night, less than five hours.

...Yet, all by himself again.

His accomplishments heard by folks of Dragnof. They were viewing Atilla as a Half-Dragon. The single individual who can fight with an army, like a dragon.

Folks gave him various nicknames after his victory— fitting name for a kingdom like Dragnof.

...The man-dragon.

(I first thought 'Dragon Warrior' but... Meh.)

So, why? Why did councilman want to bring the wrath of Atilla?

His abilities, after he destroyed 'the hands of darkness,' were known by all. His water clones and henge ability also knew by many after the war at Dragonclaw.

The hands of darkness was a slave organization for high society's needs. They were supplying sex-slaves, maids, and so on with their 'own unique' seal on the slaves' bodies.

...A seal that made them obedient to any order by their master; like kill, f*ck, suck, need, etc. If not, they will feel pain or pleasure depends on their master's will.

If Atilla destroyed them, then it meant they put a seal to a person dear to Atilla. In that case, probably his late sister.

Also, the Hands of Darkness was, without a doubt, controlled by the upper ups of Dragnof. Since Councilman Sora was so furious after it destroyed, he was probably one of the supporters as well.

...Or that old idiot still needed to boost his ego with slaves, since he could not do with a real woman.

That fatass old man with little pecker...

But it was not the case now. Atilla's late sister's body dragged out from her grave, stripped and...

...They could not bear to think about it. It was horrific. Not because they were feeling bad about the girl. Heck, they were councilman Sora's guards, of course, they corrupted as well.

...But, fearing Atilla's wrath was a thing that made them shit inside their as*holes.

So, who angered Atilla? The answer was obvious, and they knew it well, they probably f*cked up thanks to the councilman named Sora.

-------------------------

[Schene Change]

Atilla was inside the forest that surrounds Councilman Sora's palace.

It was a massive western-style mansion with a lot of guards.

...A lot of than it should be.

'So, he is expecting me,' Atilla stated. 'Well, obviously,' he snorted.

After councilman Sora did those things to Atilla's sister, of course, he would expect Atilla to come to his mansion.

He sneered. His crimson eyes that were hiding inside the darkness narrowed to a specific direction.

Atilla saw a particular part of the wall had lesser guards than other parts.

He with a flash, he ran towards the wall and jumped on it stealthily.

The cold darkness was hiding his presence, and his movements made no sounds. He looked around to see an entrance, and he saw it.

...A window. It was open.

He delicately climbed the mansion's roof, the guards did not sense nor saw him. The window was at the top floor and right below the Atilla's current position.

"Time to action," Atilla murmured and entered the window.

After he entered the room via the window, he saw no one was in the place.

'Odd,' Atilla thought. 'Did someone opened the window to freshen the room or...' he looked at the room's door with a vague feeling, 'Or they wanted to lure me into a trap,' he narrowed his eyes.

Atilla took a deep breath. 'Honestly,' he sighed. "It is time to see where are you... Sora," he hissed.

"First," Atilla said huskily. "Sense the surroundings: [DUYU]" he chanted an aria and emptied his mind.

Soon, his eyes lost all of the emotions as well as his breathing steadied. His sense extended to a vast range that he could sense people through even the hardest and thickest surface.

The thing he did was cutting his brain's all of the useless senses at that moment. He could not hear, he could not see, he could not sniff nor feel.

...He could only feel etherno's shift around him.

He only expanded his etherno slowly and carefully to his surroundings. Most of the magic could not penetrate the walls without the enemy's sense cathing it, but the etherno Atilla using was different.

Etherno is the external source for a human or any being to use magic. It collected inside an individual, then it could utilize with intent via magic.

So, with the right intent, Atilla could manage his etherno to penetrate the walls, doors, and even ground.

It required a high concentration and a strong will. A mistake could let the other's feel his presence.

So, he had to be careful. That magic or skill named as [DUYU]. It was Atilla's only own spell he managed creat in his entire life.

It was a grand day for him when he created it since he knew he did not have to rely on the system all the time. He could create his own spells, he could create his private martial arts.

...All by himself, not because the system gave him, he could make them too.

So, he used his own technique eminently, make the [DUYU] one of the deadliest spell in his arsenal, made it the new level of any other sensing magic altogether.

A lot of wall in the mansion built with anti-magical materials. So, if you don't have a strong sense of smell or keen ear like a dragon, you cannot find any presence with any ordinary sense magic.

But, [DUYU] was different. Even Atilla did not know how entirely. All he could tell was it evolved after his countless uses on anti-magical materials.

The magic itself is an exciting subject. Up until that time, he did not even aware magic could evolve.

But, it did. A big success for Atilla's ego, as he was happy to brag about it if the times were acceptable.

So, with that, he found where Sora was. He was deep below his mansion. He could feel a big dungeon was built at the palace.

...Other than that, the mansion aside from the dungeon was empty.

Atilla sensed other presences. At the one side of the dungeons, countless women were living in cells; And at the other side, where Sora was waiting, was a lot of monsters was waiting with two people.

It seems one of them was a little short and had a pretty big head for his own good. His head abuses any physic laws altogether. It should not be possible for his neck to carry his head.

...And it seemed that the person was the one controlling the beasts.

In the other hand, the other one was tall, and he had well build body. Atilla could feel he had a dangerous vibe around him.

His expression was calm, but his body was stiff. He was guarded to any possibilities, even to his allies.

Atilla snorted. "Oh, joy,' he said irritatedly. He slowly opened the door to the empty mansion and carefully entered the dungeon.

---------------------------------

Atilla's cloak was wawing with the unnatural wind inside the dungeon. His crimson eyes were shining inside the lurking darkness of the dungeon.

So far, he only saw slaves inside the cell. As he sensed, there were no guards in the dungeon.

Yet, he was guarded to any possibilities. He knew it was highly likely there was a way to counter his [DUYU].

So far, he did not meet any person who capable enough to do that, but better safe than sorry.

With the [Cross Tail], he put trap wires around the dungeon. With that, he would know if a person came after him.

'I'm still new at this, but... it seems it's working,' Atilla looked at his [Cross Tail] seriously.

He knew instinctively to any weapon or spell that came from system, yet by all means, he was no master of them.

He needs to practise to master them. Even if he knew basics of the swordsmanship by the system, he could not defeat his foes with just basics, so he studied and trained while travelling the lands.

He was sending money to his last family member via transportation wyverns. But, it was a pity that his sister captured by fools.

Those memories aside, he saw an immediate notification via the system.

[(Temporary) Mission Received: Into the Pith]

Summary: Atilla was mad to Councilman Sora for what he did to his own sister. So, because of his own stupidity, he headed towards a trap.

▇ █ 𝔗𝔥𝔦𝔰 𝔪𝔦𝔰𝔰𝔦𝔬𝔫 𝔠𝔞𝔪𝔢 𝔟𝔢𝔠𝔞𝔲𝔰𝔢 𝔬𝔣 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔰𝔶𝔰𝔱𝔢𝔪'𝔰 𝔩𝔞𝔱𝔢 𝔢𝔯𝔯𝔬𝔯𝔰. █ ▇

ERROR 1: Bringing death back to live is possible, but highly unrecommended because of the Curse of Ankhseram. (Curse summary is restricted)

ERROR 2: In the last mission, the things about the council changed unlike to mission's first report.

|OBJECTIVE(S)|

[Objective 1]: ????

[Reward]: ????

------------------

------------------

Atilla looked in front of him again. There was no point to meddle if you did not know what the objective was.

So, he entered the deepest floor, where the councilman Sora and his other two enemies resist.

The time has come.
