Good morning, afternoon or evening, here I bring you the first of the three or four final chapters of this series.
If this series is already near to the end, I never thought of making this a long story, but I have an idea of a "Sequel", but I will talk about that in the final chapter.
For now, let's move on to the next chapter.
Omega?
Battle of the lost fields
The first shock
With Soi fon
We have walked for a week, we follow the path of fire and blood that Rhayla has left.
It was easy to follow the path for the above mentioned.
She went to the west, it is known why the last towns that she has looted are in that direction, I have sent my men to do reconnaissance in the places around the towns.
Most found nothing out of the ordinary, other than scarecrows stolen from the roads, however, a few reported signs of possible former camps.
A certain amount of ash on the lawn along with wood, certain pieces of cloth in the wooded passage, and a metal canteen in a river, this canteen has words in which Hungarian is theorized.
Since we are close to meeting the leader of the Maledicti we have started to make forced marches and also to be much more careful with our steps.
If we catch them off guard we can win without much difficulty.
With Rhayla
I look at the graves where the bodies of the people we have murdered inhabit to prepare the field, it is a deep grave, and even so, it is almost full.
My men show respect for their corpses, doing a small ritual where a white fire burns around the pit, then they start to cover the pit.
I turn forward and see how several bonfires are lit, right now we will guide them into a trap.
A part of the soldiers is in the camp, enjoying these moments before the battle, although all carry their weapons with them.
The other part already enjoyed the moment of tranquility and they are on a hill in the rear, where unless the shinigami arrive through those places they should not see them.
Looking around the field it could be seen that the traces of blood have disappeared, so they should not know that once inside they will not be able to use their reiatsu.
Rhayla just takes a deep breath and takes off her red helmet, waiting for the battle.
2 hours later
Shinigami load.
Because black smoke began to be seen touching the clouds, Soi fon's assassins were sent to inspect, when they returned they indicated that the Maledicti camp was there.
After a few minutes of debate, it was decided that the following procedure would be followed.
They would march to not too far from the camp and send assassins from squad 2 to kill the sentries.
After that, the thirteenth and tenth divisions would enter to assault and kill the Maledictis.
If resistance is found they will be sent to the 5th and 6th to support.
The 2nd division will guard the surroundings to capture or kill all those who escape.
And so it began.
Without complications, the second division assassins killed the sentries without being seen or making any noise, after that the 13th and 10th divisions were given the signal to advance.
As the spirits from the west spoke, practiced, played, and the leader met them in the center, the shinigami in their black robes rushed forward.
Several maledicti died in that surprise attack, for a moment it seemed that panic was going to spread throughout the camp, but the snowy-haired and the dark-haired woman quickly cut off the head of one of the shinigami with her sword.
And at that several more Maledicti take out their weapons and fight against the Shinigami, at first the Maledictis fight quite uncomfortably taking several casualties, but several more come out of the shops and in some places they surround the Shinigami as they are massacred without being able to do much.
However, suddenly several waves of Reiatsu sent several maledicti flying, as Toshiro, Rukia, and Jushiro had released their stilt walkers.
Toshiro had his beautiful wings of ice with which he soared into the sky and seeing the woman in crimson armor lunged toward her.
Rukia's blade turned a beautiful snow-white, putting it up to her face I uttered a spell Tsugi no mai, haruken
And with that, she slashed forward, out of which came thousands of blades of ice that massacred the Maledicti.
And Jushiro had two glittering glowing swords that were held together by a pale red thread, all maledicti who battled with the dead term.
Seeing this, Rhayla claps her hands on the floor.
And just before Toshiro stabbed his sword into the woman's torso, he fell to his knees, and on the ground, he began to eject his reiatsu into the air and his ice wings began to crack and break.
No, not just him, all the shinigami fall to their knees and begin to expel their energy, and waves of energy of various colors go out into the sky.
The Shinigami, remembering that the same thing happened at Kenpachi's death site, send the fifth and sixth divisions.
Meanwhile, in the camp the shinigami are in a bad position, having lost the reiatsu Toshiro finds himself battling Rhayla, he does not doubt his ability, but it is undeniable that his opponent wearing armor is at a disadvantage, besides his ice wings they keep falling apart, he feels short of breath, he feels quite tired.
"This must be what she did to kill Kenpachi," Toshiro thought as he blocked a blow.
While Rhayla and Toshiro's swords dance, Rukia has had to withdraw to help her captain, who received a cut in the chest after losing his reiatsu. She still had her snow-colored sword and the captain had his twin swords, but they could both feel the energy in them fade away.
Jushiro turned back to defend himself, but at that moment his twin swords vanished and returned to their normal form.
Fortunately for the achievement to block the attack, Rukia's sword has also lost the snow color, yet they back to back continue to resist.
The same cannot be said of normal Shinigami.
Having lost their reiatsu, they fell to their knees and the Maledicti began to push quickly, even though they recovered quickly, several died in the process and also in some places they began to surround them, and without the reiatsu, they could not cross the Maledicti armor.
Unlike the battle in the city, the only thing that impeded the passage in this camp was a few tents that did not hinder the maneuvers.
Divisions were beginning to be overcome and the bodies of several of his men were carpeting the floor.
Suddenly, in the sky, you could see several red dots and these were getting closer until they crashed with the Maledicti. The fifth division managed to position itself and now it was raining kido against its enemy.
But instead of blowing the undead to pieces, only some were affected, particularly those who received it fully and also instead of exploding and causing smoke, rather it evaporated when touching something.
The blond captain upon seeing that decided to try something put his two hands in front and pronounced - Sanzai Suru, kemono no hone sento kosho, Kotetsu no sharin. Ugokeba kaze, tomabera sora. Yari utsu neiro ka kyojo ni Michiru - * 1
And from his hands came a golden ray that was heading towards the Maledicti at full speed, but after a certain distance the energy vanished and on impact, instead of roasting them, it only hindered them for a moment.
Shinji and all his troops noticed that.
Shinji spoke to his troops - Listen, apparently the same thing that took away the reiatsu from our companions, it also makes our kido weaker, make the spell stronger than you know -
However, what would be a problem for the Maledicti would be the sixth division.
From the flank and rear, Byakuya's men charged at the Maledicti, enveloping them and causing the balance to balance.
Byakuya himself, accompanied by some of his men, went to see how his sister was. Seeing that she and her captain were being overcome quickly, he went to help.
Reaching his sister's side, the black-haired spirit buried the tip of his katana in the neck of one of the Maledicti, which was one of the few places where he had no armor and quickly killed him for the amount of blood that flows out of his body.
The Kuchiki leader looked at the eye-abode, he already had several cuts on his body, but none serious. He asks her - are you okay? -
Rukia gave a small smile and said - Yes, brother - But her face turned into concern and pointing her finger forward she says - But you must help Captain Toshiro, right now he is fighting against a woman in red armor and he is weakened -
The spirit nods give the order to his men to help Rukia and Jushiro, especially the latter due to his injury and quickly leaves to help his partner.
"She certainly is in trouble, if she managed to kill Kenpachi it wouldn't take long to kill Hitsugaya too"
Byakuya upon reaching the place where Rukia indicated, saw how a woman in crimson armor, the face with bleeding cuts and two-tone hair kicked Hitsugaya in the stomach, leaving him on the ground.
Hitsugaya had already lost his ice wings, had several cuts, and was panting heavily.
Rhayla takes out a pistol and before she shoots at the albino she hears a few steps, when she turns around she sees the shinigami charging at her and she quickly shoots.
The Kuchiki leader, feeling the burning of the shot on his shoulder, deflected his trajectory, doing so gives Rhayla enough space to react and roll to the left.
- ... Captain Kuchiki? - The albino asks while getting up.
Panting heavily he replies -… Yes - and turns to see the woman.
The gray-haired woman smiles.
