"So, you finally come on down, huh," I said, storing my chakrams again before looking at the 2 people that just landed on the ground by sliding down the wall.
"Bitch I will kill you for what you did!" The one to the right said.
"Whatever you say, Sammy," I said, waving her off while looking at the other one. "So Grandenzil is your mother?"
"..." not answering me, she pulled out 2 chakrams under her coat.
"Not going to say anything. Whatever, I will take your silence as confirmation." I said, making a speer in my right hand.
"You said your main weapon is magic?" Grandenzils' daughter said, narrowing her eyes at me.
"In a way, it's my main weapon."
"Then why do you have a spear now?"
"Hmm, didn't I tell you I know how to use all the weapons in the world?" I said, tilting my head at them.
"Grrr, you are getting too arrogant!" Sammy yelled, sending all her killing intent towards me.
"Fine, fine, before we can start, take off those masks," I said, pointing at them as well as the 7 people who followed me.
"that's fine, but why do you want to see our faces." Grandenzils' daughter said, taking off her mask exposing a cute young girl probably the same age as Apricot with green eyes and white-blond hair.
"I want to know the face of the people that will be under me," I said, smirking at them.
"YOU!" Sammy yelled, still having a half-mask on, hiding the part I skinned her.
"Oh, don't be like that. I will heal you properly when that happens," I said, giving Sammy a kind smile.
"Like I will allow you to get close to Sammy again!" Grandenzils' daughter yelled, throwing her chakrams at me.
"Tsk tsk, aren't you a bit too emotional," I said, getting in a defensive stance.
'She infused them with mana, but why can't I see an element on them? She is also only using her mana to spin them faster.' I thought, hitting both the chakrams from the top, sending them to the ground next to me.
Clung
Clung
"What?" seeing me just shrugging off her attack, she looked at me baffled.
"don't you have an element?" I said, not seeing any mana traces from the chakrams.
"of course, she has one!" Sammy yelled from behind, attacking me with daggers.
"You are faster," I said, blocking her arms with the spear.
"Attack now!" Sammy yelled, making the other 7 people start running at me.
"You heard her men!" The leader said, taking the lead again.
"Yes, sir."
"Hmm, didn't I say you guys are too slow to fight me?" I said, pushing Sammy away, turning on them, swiping the spear up 7 chains shot out of the ground impaling everyone through the head, excluding the leader, who bȧrėly dodged the attack.
"Ugh."
"you bitch! RAaagh!" The leader yelled, looking at his now-dead comrades before looking back at me, charging towards me.
"I told you to leave this to us." Grandanzil's daughter said, pulling the leader back.
"Young miss, I truly don't care anymore. She has killed my entire team tonight. I would like to get revenge for them." He said with a determent expression.
"You won't get revenge. You will only join them." I said while blocking blows from Sammy again.
"Damn you, bitch!" The leader shouted, bȧrėly holding himself back.
"Fine, we will work together to kill her." The young miss said, giving the leader a good nod.
'This is quite irritating that all of them have a blocker on them. I really want to know what their levels and classes are. Especially that leader guy.' I thought, trying to inspect the leader again.
"Thank you. We will go with your plan, young miss." The leader said, bringing me out of my thoughts.
'Oops, I didn't listen to their plans. I might have made my fight harder.' I thought, changing my clothes to my combat set with a coat. Dispelling the spear, I took out the 6 chakrams again with my two katanas and started spinning the chakrams in the air.
"I guess we can get serious now," I said, looking at the three in front of me.
"you're right." Grandenzils' daughter said, taking off her coat revealing her chakrams hanging on her waist.
"Sammy and Fred, you go in close. I will support you from far and do remember our plan later on." The young miss whispered to the other two.
"Yes, young miss," Fred said, nodding.
"Whatever you say, Wendy," Sammy said, nodding as well.
"Oh, so your names are Fred and Wendy," I said, nodding to myself.
"Go." Both Fred and Sammy run towards me at her command, with Wendy throwing her chakrams at me.
"Chakrams aren't really made for support," I said, pairing her chakrams with my own.
"How are you doing that!?" Wendy yells, seeing me move my chakrams without touching them.
"Magic Wendy magic," I said sarcastically while kicking Fred in the gut sending him flying.
'These guys are definitely better than my own squad, and if they were just a bit faster, they would be overwhelming me easily.' I thought blocking and making their attacks like my life depended on it.
"What do you mean by magic," Wendy asked.
"I can explain it too. If you leave everyone behind and join me." I said, pushing Sammy away before extending my half-open hand towards her, still holding my katana in hand. "I know Grandenzil isn't your real mother seeing as you guys don't look even closely related to each other."
"..." seeing her just looking down, I raised an eyebrow.
"You know she isn't a good person, right? She is creating child soldiers for her selfish organization that kills, rȧpė, human trafficking, and a lot more just for money." I said, glancing at Sammy and Fred, looking at Wendy with bated breath.
'I actually don't know what the crimson bandits all do, but they are bandits so let's go with that.' I thought, dropping my hand to my waist.
"I know that," Wendy mumbled under her breath.
"So, what are you going to do? Stay with your bad mother figure or join me... a fox?" I said, adding the last part hesitantly.
'Now that I said it out loud is doesn't sound so cool as in my head.' I thought depressed.
"a fox? Whahaha, who would want to follow a fox-like you!" Sammy yelled from the side.
"What, but I am a nice fox," I said, giving Sammy a bright smile.
"Hah!? You a nice fox? Then what do you call the treatment you gave me!?" Sammy yelled, frustrated, pointing at her half-covered face.
"What, any nice fox can be evil against their enemies, and that night you were my enemy," I said, shrugging.
"What about my team. You didn't have to go that hard in them." Fred said, narrowing his eyes at me.
"You attacked first," I said, shrugging giving a weird look as well.
"It was you who attacked them first!"
"Oh right, that's true. I did attack first," I said awkwardly.
"You even made one of my teammates kill her husband by accident before cutting her own head off," Fred said aggressively.
"Hmm, the guy I threw into the fireball," I said, confused. Seeing him shiver in anger, I knew I hit the mark.
"The worst part, you just tried to make me betray my own mother!!" Wendy yelled.
"Well, yes, but all the things I pointed out were true, and she has been doing them for years. What these two pointed out was what I did in a week and self-defense. why do I suddenly feel like a villain being confronted by the hero party?" I said, adding the last part inaudible.
"It still doesn't change the fact that you hurt them."
"Well, obviously not. I never tried to deny that fact. Not like you guys from the crimson bandits." I said, making them glare at me.
"They are our family. Don't talk so ugly about them," Fred said aggressively.
"Yeah, a family that rȧpės and kills people," I said sarcastically.
'Cough like I am one to talk.' I thought, holding my mocking smirk.
"They are still family," Wendy said, gripping her hands more.
"Wendy, have you ever seen a girl being or was rȧpėd before?" I asked, looking between Wendy and Sammy.
"...No," Wendy said after a while.
"So, you don't actually know how they look afterward or how they feel," I said, getting an emotional expression.
"How would you know! It's not like you were ever rȧpėd." Fred yelled, making me raise an eyebrow at him.
"Well, no, but I have seen a lot of women who were rȧpėd before," I said, looking at Wendy in the eyes. I added. "Just think about it. How will you feel if a group of guys forces you to sleep with them against your own will?"
"That..."
"Why the fuċk are we talking about shit like this!" Sammy said from the side.
"I don't know our monologue is going on quite some time," I said, shrugging.
"... how are you so casual about all this?" Wendy asked, looking at me weirdly.
'Casual? After seeing it so many times, you get kind of used to talking about it, I guess. Anyways let's finish this.' I thought a bit depressed about the idea before I shot a grin at Wendy.
"Casual? Nah, I am waiting on our little third party to join us." I said, smiling at her making her confused.
"Third-?" Wendy started talking, only to be interrupted by a green light shining into all of our eyes.
'Guess they are here..' I thought, closing my eyes and concentrating on my ears.
