126 – Vengeance Must Be Served

=Nelliel=

The moment Nnoitra unsealed his Resurrección she could feel the spirit pressure he was giving off multiply. Where before her own spirit pressure had dwarfed his he actually exceeded hers by quite a bit now.

He dashed towards her leaving a cloud of dust in his wake. He moved so fast he got back to the clearing before she could even react.

She barely managed to dodge one of the scythes that came swinging for her neck by jumping back.

Tesra was looking at Nnoitra unsurely. “D-do you need my help?” He shouted.

Nnoitra seemed to be too occupied by his rage for Nelliel as he simply ignored his Fracción.

He swung his four scythe blades wildly purely based on his instincts rather than technique while wearing a wild smile.

It lacked any real pattern causing Nelliel to struggle to dodge them. It took everything out of her just to be able to barely hold on.

“Not so high and mighty anymore. Are you Nelliel?” He sneered.

Tesra seeing his opportunity joined in on the flurry and Nelliel was no longer completely able to keep up despite her best efforts to weave between the duo’s attacks cuts on her clothes and skin started appearing one by one. She did manage to avoid any attacks that posed a more serious threat such as those targeting her torso and head.

Tesra didn’t escape unscathed either though. Due to Nnoitra being so caught up in his frenzy of attacks he wasn’t even trying to avoid Tesra leading to him gaining some injuries too despite being there to help. If it weren’t for Nnoitra not intentionally targetting him he would probably be even worse off.

“Come on Nelliel! Keep up!” Nnoitra taunted.

Nelliel grit her teeth until her gums bled. Being humiliated by someone not worth her time once was bad enough. There was no way she was going to allow a second time.

She had to admit Nnoitra had grown in strength, but she knew he was still not her or Hisashi’s match. She had already noticed the others had wrapped up their battles and that he wasn’t helping her, but she appreciated it.

“And that she’s originally from Las Noches...” he said.

She nodded again.

“Has she told you more about that?” He asked.

She shook her head. “She doesn’t talk about it all that much,” she said hesitantly.

Her eyes widened and her head jerked towards Nnoitra with a glare even fiercer than she had sent Hisashi. “You mean?!” She asked.

“Exactly. Well at least most of it. The rest was Szayelaporro,” he said with a slightly sinister smirk tugging at the corner of her lips.

She seemed conflicted. “What if she can’t handle it though?” She asked.

He shook his head. “Even if that were the case this fight is well beyond your level,” he said.

“But...” she started to say before interrupting herself.

She glared at him like she wanted to say something, but then looked at Cirucci while gnashing her teeth.

Cirucci looked at him hesitantly. “Are you sure about this Jack?” She asked.

Hisashi smirked. “Oh so you actually do know my name?” He asked. The irony that she actually didn’t know his name was not lost on him.

She snorted in disdain. “Just don’t blame me if she dies,” she said haughtily.

Hisashi smirked as if he knew something they didn’t. “She’s stronger than you think,” he said.
