Everybody in my class (that play GC) got Lass already! (and I haven't.) T~T

Alice Foralone told me to run for my life. I made her character angry!

And sorry for late update! Because :
1. I'm a bit lazy.
2. Busy playing GC and Travian Id.
3. No idea how to write.
4. Studying Japanese.
5. Writing one-shot and X Over.

And other loads of excuse

Anyway, I don't own GC.

Chapter 4 : Not a Human

Elesis shocked, seeing Awai's right arm blocked the attack, but it didn't bleed.

"What's happening?" the knight gasped.

"No way! An ordinary hu..." Jin's word was cut by the reappearance of the hunter.

"I forgot to say it, I'm not a ordinary human!" the hunter said.

"What?" everyone gasped, disbelieving what the hunter had said.

"Healing breeze" the hunter muttered as some wind blew through his body. The bruise diminished rather quickly.

"You use the power of nature?" Ryan gasped.

"Yeah, but it was just a coincidence that I can use it." Awai answered

"No matter what you say, Awai! I'm gonna beat you!" Elesis exclaimed, running towards the hunter. Then she jumped and swung her blade.

"Sonic Wave!"

A wave came out from the sword, towards Awai. The said hunter held his blade in a throwing stance, attempting to throw his blade.

"Boomerang Blade!"

The thrown blade collided with the wave, exploded. The blade reverted back to the faith weapons, scattered on the ground.

"Mega Slash!" the red knight exclaimed as she wield her sword towards the hunter, who was still in the middle of the smoke caused by the explosion.

Clang!

Awai blocked it again with his right hand.

"Your left hand is your weakness! Air Spiral!" Elesis exclaimed as she executed her move.

'Gotcha!' the hunter thought.

"Face your Fate! Demon Smash!" he exclaimed as he jumped and used his right arm to smash the knight down. The arm was sharp enough to wound her.

"Elesis!" Ronan exclaimed, running to the wounded knight. Others followed him.

"Let me resume this fight, Ronan!" Elesis exclaimed and tried to move, but stopped by the worrying spell knight.

"Your wounds are too deep!" Ronan exclaimed.

"No! It don't seem too deep!" Elesis pouted.

Awai approached the crowd, staring at the knight's wounds.

"Well, we better stop it. Magical wounds are a bit harder to be healed." the hunter said.

"You see! Even he said so!" the spell knight shouted, receiving a pout from Elesis.

"Cure!" the violet magician chanted. The wounds closed at very slow rate.

"How come this become slow? I had the regeneration at high level." the magician said, disbelieving at the rate of healing.

"Healing Breeze."

A gentle wind blew at the wounded knight. The wounds closed quickly.

"How come?" the mage gasped.

"My magical damages slow down the rate of healing, only certain spells can be not affected by that, that's why your regeneration rate slows down." Awai explained.

"Er, can I ask a question?" Ronan asked.

"Yes." the hunter answered.

"Why would someone create this complicated magic that would be a disadvantage when someone accidentally injured others if they can't cast the healing spell?"

"In our academy, every student learn the basic heal. All students are grouped into squads, consisting of attackers and supporters. And those magic are made to counter the fast healing rate of those Genos."

"Genos?" Ryan asked, confused.

"That's the monster you fought back then. All of you didn't see that phenomenon?"

Almost everyone shook their head, except Lass and Arme.

"I and Arme saw that." the thief asked, the petite mage also nodded.

"But why did it die when I use Final Strike?" the thief added.

"Your attack gave multiple and fatal injuries - that's their weakness." the hunter explained.

"What about the hole you made in the head?" the mage asked.

"Fatal injuries. And slowed heal rate." Awai answered.

"Can you say that in simple words? You say that everyone in your Academy... Wait! You mean you're still a student?" Elesis exclaimed (with a jawdrop)

"Yes. Why?" the hunter answered.

"Then why did you come here and want to join the chase?" another question came out of Elesis.

"Holiday. And I was traveling." the hunter directly answered.

"So... You're not going back to school yet?" now its Arme who was asking.

"I think school starts next two months(1). And if those creatures are here, it's my job to drive them out, or even destroy them." Awai explained.

"So you will leave after this?" Elesis asked.

"Yeah."

"Who will go and report to Knight Master?" Ronan asked. Lass raised his hand.

"Ok, Lass, you're good at explaining." the spell knight said. The said thief went to the throne room.

"Lass! Wait for me!" Arme exclaimed as she ran after the thief.

"Haaah... What a lovebirds." Ronan muttered.

"Jealous?" Elesis asked.

"Who says I'm jealous!" the spell knight talked back.

"You are!"

"Am not!"

"Yes, you are!"

"No, I'm not!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

The argument went on as the other chasers (except the albino thief and petite mage) chatted.

"Seeing your ability, makes me remember of something. When we were halfway to here, did you use that to kill those appeared creatures?" Lire asked.

"Yeah, why?" Awai answered.

"No, just asking." the archer answered back.

"That reminded me about something! Awai, you introduced yourself but we didn't. But why you didn't asked about us?" Amy exclaimed. Others silenced. That question made sense.

"That's because I know you all based on information." the hunter answered.

"OK, kid, if you knew us, then who am I?" Sieghart questioned.

"Sieghart the Gladiator. Halfway to become Warlord." said hunter answered directly.

"Wow! You even know that far!" Jin gasped.

"Jin, shisa. Amy, muse. Elesis, spearman, currently pursuing the title of swordmaster. Ronan, dragon knight. Ryan, sentinel. Lire, crossbowman. Lass, assasin. Arme, alchemist, but prefer to use staff rather than pot." Awai said. Others jaw dropped.

"Wow. You are full of information." Ronan said.

"Gathering information is one of my task." the hunter said.

Then they went back to the castle.

"I think we should stay here for a night. Its dark already." Elesis said.

"At last! A time for resting!" Sieghart exclaimed, running through the hallway.

"Wait, old man! We haven't ask the permission to stay yet!" Elesis exclaimed, trying to chase the gladiator. Ronan patted her shoulder.

"Don't worry, Elesis. Lass knew about this already." the spell knight said.

"Ok then. I also need a rest." the knight muttered, leaving the other chasers.

Others went to their respective reserved rooms.

(In the throne room...)

"OK, Lass, permission for staying accepted. Your rooms are the usual rooms when all of you are staying here. For the newcomer, his he will get a room beside yours. And how about the test?" the queen asked. The said Assasin cleared his throat and began explaining.

"From the test, it looks like his weapon consist of more than one weapon. And he is not a human."

Hearing this, the queen surprised.

"Can you explain that?" she asked.

"His right arm is made of magical shards, rendering it to be immune from attacks. The arm is sharp enough to do a slash. Every attack that he inflicted slows down the healing rate of the wounds. And he knew the monster that attacked the town before the orcs yesterday." Arme explained.

"So he is very important to us. He is the only one who can drive those creatures off from Bermesiah." the queen muttered.

"And he almost killed Elesis with his ability." Lass added.

"Ok. Lass and Arme you can go now." the queen ordered. The said cahsers left the throne room.

"So that boy also come from there." Someone said.

"Knight Master, what are your reports?" the queen asked.

"Someone claimed that they saw a blinding light in the forest when those creatures appeared. But they don't saw that boy coming from there." Knight Master explained.

"So you mean..."

"Someone sent him here to track them down. I think letting him to join the chase can help him to finish his task."

"It's decided then."

(The next day, dawn time...)

(Lire PoV)

I couldn't get anymore sleep, so I woke up and took a walk. I saw Awai talking in his room, but I saw no one other than him!

(Awai PoV)

'Yo, Awai!'

Sounded like Destro... Wait! Was that him?

'Awai! Do you hear me?'

I took my caller and inspect it.

"Destro, are you the one who installed ths?" I interrogated

'Er.. I asked Mystic to install this. That's because you never inform us about your progress every time you went out for mission!'

"You said you asked Mystic. Did Nightmare gone mad about that?"

'You and your stupid pairings, Awai.'

"OK, enough for this. Someone's coming."

'Hey! Wait!~'

I turned it off and pretended as if nothing happened

"Morning Lire." I greeted.

"Morning Awai, what were you doing just now?" she asked

"Um... nothing..." I answered. "Why asked?"

"Nothing. Maybe I'm seeing things." she said.

(Third person)
Others woke up as the sun rose from the darkness. All of them had breakfast with the queen and Knight Master. As usual, Elesis ate as if she hadn't eaten for days and got scolded by others, Ryan praying as they ate, Amy singing in front of others.

After they finished their breakfast, Knight Master announced.

"According to our discussion, Awai, we accept you to join the Grand Chase."

The chasers face turned happy and they congratulated and welcomed Awai as the new chaser.

"And one more, We have a mission for all of you."

A/N :

At last, I finished this chapter. Well, I got a bit idea from Utsuro's 'Into the Dark' and other fanfics.

I also want to say thanks to other authors for their interesting fanfic (Kidfigi, Mitsukai Kanashimi, Utsuro, Whillowwhip, Alice Foralone, Legna des Scholar A.K.A Sapphire Winged Angel and others) that gives me ideas.

And modification of Awai's jobs

1st Job : Battlers (weapon : sealed gauntlet)

2nd Job : Bladesman (weapon : sentinel blade)

3rd Job : Gunstrafe (weapon : Night hawk [Deagle])

4th Job : Swordsman (weapon : D-Sword)

Special Job : Hunter (weapon : Claw [bare hands])

(1) Time dimension. 1 week : 13 days, no one could understand how this works.
