Boooom!
"Catch him!" A commander of Whiterun city shouted. He was a middle-aged man, with short hair, bulky stature. He was a 4th stage sword aura user.
"Hihaaaaa!" Hundreds of soldiers behind him roaring. Charged toward the group of invaders infront of them.
Rumble!
"Team Two, Enter. We will handle them, remember our mission!"
"Yes… You all follow me." man in black hod said, charging in.
"Stop them! We can't let them enter lord's Mansion!"
…
…
[What happened before]
"What would you like, mister?" a bulky man asked. He was wearing a sleeveless shirt, a love tattoo on his right shoulder. He had a cut in his left eye.
He was the bar owner of Bear Bar. The most famous Bar in Whiterun, with its bear shots.
"A bear special shot, with nine strawberries." Ordered the man in the black cloak, who was seated in front of the bar owner.
"Hmm?" hearing the order Bar owner raised his eyebrows, smirk forming in his lips.
"Sorry sir, We don't have strawberries right now. Could bananas work?"
"No need. Strawberries are better, I can give you gold if you bring the strawberries." The hooded man said, raising a pouch.
"Oh! Sure sure, Sir. Then please follow me, I can show you the best quality strawberry in our storage." The bar owner immediately said.
He rubbed his hand, when the other customers behind him laughed.
"Sure, lead the way."
"Yes yes."
Quickly, following the bar owner of Bear Bar.
He led the hooded man near the basement door.
Halt!
When, just in front of the basement door. There steps halted.
A creepy silence soon falling in the passageway. Bar owner turned toward the hood man.
"The strawberry is good, right? Then what's its password?"
"Darkness falls, for the light to shine. One day, the light shall fade for the upbringing of darkness."
Nod
Nod
Confirming the hood man. Bar owner opened the basement door.
Walking downstairs, He led to a corner of the door tabbing a few points of walls.
Dhuu!
A secret underground staircase opened up.
"You can head inside."
"Um." Hood man walking down the staircase. Bar owner closed the door of basement.
…
Step!
Step!
Walking downstairs. With a very small space to move around, torches flaring the dark staircase.
"Halt! State your identity." An unknown voice sounded.
The hood man halting in his steps. He looked up. Where, A big black door was presented infront of him, a crow head in the middle of door.
The crow head spoke. It's eyes gleaming red.
"State your identity."
"Here" taking out a transparent badge. He showed it to the crow head.
"Blade, Outer Devotee of Western Blood Cult. 6th Member of 11th ranked Raven Squad. Joined one month ago…"
"... Identity confirmed. You can pass." The crow head permitted. The door opening by itself.
Blade then walking inside the door.
A huge arena room greeted him.
"Outer Lord Blade. Please follow me." A cultist voice sounded few second after, approaching Blade.
"Lead the way." Cultist leading the way. He led Blade near a room.
"Inner Lord Alden is awaiting your presence." Cultists said, opening the room. Blade walked inside the room.
"Hmm..?" A man hummed, noticing the door to his room opening. He was seating in his couch, wearing a tuxedo. He had two pairs of yellow eyes, long black hair, tied in pony tail.
"Welcome, Outer Devotee Blade. So, you are the devotee. Lord Abigor send to complete this job?"
"Yes, I am. And… I guess, you are Inner Lord Alden? Sword of Crow Blades." Blade said.
Crow Blades were the 9th ranked Squad of Western Cult. While, this man infront of Blade was known as the best Swordsmaster of Crow Blades.
"Yes, I indeed am the one you say. And.. You are the mysterious member of Raven Squad." Alden said, observing Blade. He scoffed hearing no honorifics from Blade.
While, He also didn't find any thing special about the man infront of him.
Cult had a hierarchy from Slave to Cultists to Outer Devotee then Inner and Core.
So, in term of Hierarchy. Alden was superior to Blade.
'He is only a 1st stage aura user. What's so special about him? To give him the led role in this mission.' Alden questioned inwardly. Not understanding the intention of Abigor. He also was alittle jealous of Blade.
"Yes, I am." Blade replied, with his stoic face.
"Then, You don't need me to explain. Today's mission, do I?"
"No. Our mission today is to kill Viscount Dio." Blade said.
"Good. Then, rest for awhile. We will commence our mission in night." Alden said, giving a secret disdainful look toward Blade.
…
…
"Team Two, enter. We will handle these worms! remember our mission, you have to complete it." Alden exclaimed, taking out his sword.
"Yes… You all follow me." Blade said, charging in.
"Stop them! We can't let them enter lord's Mansion!"
Boooom!
"We will clear a path for you! Enter the base!" Alden shouted, releasing his 4th stage sword aura.
"Haa!"
Swish!
With a clear swipe. Alden chopped off the head of a soldier.
"Fight me, You damn cult bastards! You all shall die for showing your filthy faces infront of Lord Viscount's Mansion!" Commander shouted, raising his sword aura. He released his sword aura.
Vrooom!
"Charge!" Alden shouted. Both his and Commander's aura colliding against eachother.
Swoooosh!
Clang!
Both Alden's and Commander's sword collided, sparks lighting up from there collision.
"Die, You unholy bastard!"
Slash!
Cling!
"I rather live. So, no thanks!" Alden said, replying Commander's attack with his own.
Cling!
Clang!
Kricck!
"Hihaa!"
Booooom!
"Kgh! Damn shit." Alden cursed, dodging the heavy strike from Commander.
Whoooosh!
He, used his aura. To enhance his bodies speed and strength.
"Body enhancement! You aren't some random boy, I say." Commander said, using his own Body enhancement.
Alden secretly peeked behind him. A smirk forming.
'Heh! He entered.'
…
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Team Two, that was under Blade's command entered inside the mansion.
They were total of six people.
"Outer Lord. Viscount Dio bed chamber is that way." His team member said.
"Lead the way, then."
"Yes, Outer Lord."
Quickly leading the way. They walked through the corridor.
Rumble!
When the entire mansion shooked.
"I will kill you damn Cult's bastard!" Commander's voice sounded from outside the mansion.
Rumble!
Booooom!
Ignoring all the battle going outside. Blade and his team quickly moved toward Viscount Dio's bed chamber.
"It this it?" Blade asked. His teammates nodding.
Blade opened the door. Immediately…
"Dieee!" A iron axe swooped toward Blade's neck.
Swish!
"Ugh!" barely dodging the axe. Blade looked forward.
'He is Viscount Dio?' infront of him was a 5'6 ft man. He was a overweight man, with huge tummy and fatty cheeks. He carried a battle axe in his hand, his face full of fright. He looked in his 18's.
"Who.. who are you! How daring of you all of invade my mansion!" Viscount Dio shouted, his tone trembling. He had snot leaking through his nose.
"Shut it, Fat pig. Your luxurious life of noble end's today. Now die." a teammate behind Blade said.
"Waa!" Hearing him. Viscount Dio began crying. When..
Swish!
Splurt!
The next second, his head flew rolling over. Blood splattering the nearby objects.
Blade's and other cultists eyes widening in shock.
'What!'
"You damn worms! dare make my baby cry!" A extremely bone chilling voice spoke.
A smoky figure appearing behind Viscount Dio.
It shaped in a lady figure. She embraced Viscount, patting his head.
"My baby. Don't cry, don't cry. Your mama is here."
"Mama?"
'What! A spirit wielder!' Blade exclaimed.
He had read about this type of aura wielder in Cult's library.
Spirit Wielder were a type of aura user. Who's aura were a independent souls.
A average Spirit Wielder can be comparable to a 4th tier aura user.
There were many ways to become a spirit wielder. But, let's not talk about it now.
"Now. You all die!" The spirit exclaimed. Releasing Viscount Dio from her embrace.
Two dagger appeared in both of her hands.
Swoooosh!
Slash!
"Arghh!"
"No! Sav—Gughh!"
Killing two other cultists in one swipe. She turned toward other.
Slash!
Swish!
Clang!
"Gughh!" Blade hands trembled blocking a strike from a 5th stage swordmaster.
"Die!" The spirit lady shouted. She striked Blade with her dagger.
Cling!
Clang!
Clang!
Firey sparks igniting the collision of there sword and dagger.
"Die!"
"Die!"
"Die!" The lady striked Blade like a psycho.
"Gugh!" Blood dripping from corner of his mouth. Blade used his aura to barely withstand her hits.
Rumble!
"You made my baby cry! Die!"
"Damn you and your baby!" Blade exclaimed, parrying the blows of dagger by his sword.
Bam!
He threw a punch toward her. But he passed through her.
He destroyed the wall behind her. A small hole appearing in the wall.
"Yo.. You dare, destroy my baby's house!"
Fwoooosh!
The spirit speeds increasing. She slammed Blade to ground, raising her dagger.
'Darn it! I have to use my energy seed now.'
