BXBX NOVEL Chapter 412 - Judgement III
~~~(Location: Orvello Estate in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~
~~~(Time: 9:56 AM)~~~
My attention is on Sally as she carves through another pair of guards. I spin and use my wings as blades. The surrounding soldiers are split and torn apart. I dash forward and kill two more with a single slash of The Witness. I bring my wings in front of me, and I block two different attacks. I feel their swords break against my wings.
Sally leaps over the top of me and dispatches the two soldiers, and takes their heads off with precise swings of her sword. "The main room should be ahead, but we have more to go through to get to them." Sally keeps the conversation short as another group of soldiers and guards come around the corner. In a blast of speed, everything slows down, and I cut through them like water.
My perception of time goes back to normal, and Sally looks towards me and the bodies a little disappointed. "What? This saves us time. Do you really want me to save some for you?" She rolls her eyes and catches up to me. My wings are spread out and carving paths through the walls that are in their way. It\'s an intimidating sight.
It has an effect on the group ahead. "How many guards do they have?" We\'ve already killed a good number, and their forces are spread thin thanks to all the chaos. Before I can attack, Sally heads off before me and kills them faster than I\'ve seen her kill anything. The reason being we\'re getting very close to where her family is located.
They should\'ve tried to escape, but if they were doing that, there wouldn\'t be so many guards trying to halt our progress to where they\'re at. "It doesn\'t matter how many there are. I\'m not letting any of them get in the way of this." Her response is a little more bloodthirsty than what I\'m used to, but I don\'t have a problem with any of it.
I catch up to her in a burst of speed, and we walk side by side as massive doors approach, and a large single soldier is guarding the door. "You\'ll not get through. I don\'t know why you\'ve attacked the great house of Orvello, Slayer Zern. But this is where your life ends." He draws his sword and gets into a defensive stance.
This is an absolute joke to me. I literally have health Tens in the billions and Mana in the Hundreds of Billions. I launch forward and spin like a corkscrew. Using my wings to tear through him and the door that he\'s guarding. I land in the center of the room, and I see the entire Orvello Family. "This is absurd!!!" Who I assume is the matriarch speaks, but instead of responding, I step aside.
~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: Palace Throne Room, Elven Kingdom)~~~
~~~(Time: 9:59 AM)~~~
The Elven Queen Oryzox stands and slowly descends the stairs leading up to her throne, and everyone moves back, so only Helda is the one that remains forward. "So this is the one that will be fighting me. Why Slayer Zern is here is unknown to me, but I have a feeling he\'s playing a part in this." It\'s an obvious deduction to assume my brother is helping.
Since people know he\'s here, that makes things easy to connect. "Most people would make a speech, but I\'m not going to do that. You either know what you\'re doing is wrong, or you\'re too out of your mind to know." Helda cuts any sort of conversation short. The Queen raises an eyebrow and places a hand on her blade\'s handle.
She slowly draws it out and gets into a guard. "As you wish, peasant. This is the last day you will desecrate my throne room with your miserable life." I fold my arms and take a seat on a free chair to witness and enjoy the fight. Helda gets into a guard too and shifts her feet. I don\'t know who will attack first, but I\'m eager to see where all this goes.
In the blink of an eye to a normal person, Oryzox leaps from her spot and completely catches Helda off guard with her speed. Helda narrowly dodges a slash that would\'ve taken her head off. They\'re moving fast, but not fast enough for me to lose them. "You move well for a lowborn peasant." Oryzox is quick to start the insults in the battle.
Those won\'t work on Helda, and she\'s finding that out the hard way. They\'re clashing blade to blade. One not faltering or giving advantage to the other. Helda is turning her body in a way that only a woman can, and Oryzox is fighting in a way that I\'d consider beautiful. It\'s almost like their dancing. But this is much different than that.
They\'re evenly matched when it comes to skill with the sword, so they both decide to kick it up a notch and start incorporating skills and powerful unorthodox combos. "It won\'t be as easy as you think. You\'re not leaving this Palace alive." Helda talks and gets an angry scowl from Oryzox. Making her become more violent and less precise with her attacks.
~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~
~~~(Location: Orvello Estate in Greshina, Elven Kingdom)~~~
~~~(Time: 10:01 AM)~~~
My eyes lock with the matriarch of the family. My mother\'s father. My grandfather. "I demand to know why strangers have burst into my family\'s home and are killing my loyal soldiers and guards!! I\'m Jezix Orvello! And I\'ll be respected!!" This is the man who condemned my mother, and he doesn\'t even know who I am.
It takes all the willpower I have not to draw my blade. All those words were intended for me since it\'s easy to see who Cera is. "You\'re a pathetic excuse for a man and a worm and coward of a father." My direct and blunt insult causes Jezix to stutter at the blatant disrespect I\'m showing him. I\'m not finished, and I\'m going to make sure he knows every transgression he\'s committed against me.
He stands up from his throne in anger and stomps down the steps. His wife, my grandmother, looks worried. She\'s staring at Cera in fear, and I see another elven girl. One that I don\'t know, but will die all the same. "Tell me who you are, you wretch!! You\'ll know respect when I\'m through with you." My grandmother looks like she wants to get up and stop him.
Before he can move any closer, I draw my sword, and the tip ends right at his Adam\'s apple. He takes a deep gulp, and sweat slowly forms on his temple. "My name is Saliandra Orvello, and I\'ve come to avenge my mother and kill this entire family for the betrayal you committed against her." His eyes go wide, and he becomes paler.
He takes a step back and tries to find words to speak. "How in the hell did you escape... I was assured my useless daughter and her filthy halfbreed daughter would be handled..." As those words leave his mouth, all I see is red. I dash forward and drive the tip of my blade through his shoulder. Making sure not to kill him. "ARGH!!" He cries out in pain as I pin him to the ground.
Cera leaps in front of me to make sure none of the other family members try to get in the way. "NONE OF YOU WILL MOVE!!!" I scream out from behind Cera as I twist my blade in Jezix\'s shoulder, and he groans out in pain. He grips the blade and tries to pull it out, but he can\'t get it to budge. "You\'ll know pain when I\'m done with you!!" Finally!! They\'re all mine to punish!!!

A/N: Below this line, I\'ll be keeping Cera\'s player information. That way, I won\'t have to place it into the story above anymore. It takes about 180 words up.
