Sup guys? Lighting Wolf here, back with another story. This one about Witch and the Hundred Knight. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own WATHK, Nippon Ichi Software and Sony do.
(Medea.)
The girl laughed as she looked into the pot that would summon the answer to her problem.
Behindherwas a summoning book, held by her faithful servant, Arecchino.
"Master Lia, might I offer a bit of advice… This does seem a bit wasteful-…."
Arecchino muttered, she ignored him, it wasn't her name, she had told him a thousand times and he never once listened it seemed.
It was Metallia, Mel-Tal-Ia, how many damn times did she have to point that out to him?
"Soon, that putrid little goody two shoes will be put in the ground… All once the Hundred Knight shows up…"
Metallia muttered, the pot in front of the Swamp Witch bubbled, it looked like a portal, although it also opened on the other side of the of the hut.
"What, two of them, what the hell is going on!?"
Metallia hissed before a bright beam of light cut her off, it brightened the room up, blinding her and Arecchino.
When she opened her eyes, she couldn't believe what was in front of her.
The first figure was tiny, about half the size of her legs, it had a metal helmet, orange eyes and blue armor, it looked around the room curiously, as if unsure what to do at the moment.
The other was what she was expecting the warrior she wanted, it had a black hooded robe or something similar wrapped around it, black, reddish and blue armor covered its chest and arms and legs, and it held a spiked scythe with 2 blades on both sides.
It also had a black and reddish mask on and had clawed fingers.
"Where the hell… Where the hell are we…. Who summoned us!?"
The mask being hissed as he looked around, disorientated at the moment and unable to see.
He heard Metallia climb to his feet and pointed his scythe at her.
"Stay behind me…. Why did you summon me? Why did you summon us, I mean…?"
The first being hissed, it was in a language that not many people knew about, he crossed his arms and looked at her, he looked at her home and crossed his arms.
"A witch… Out of all things…. Damn it, I feel…"
The figure muttered before collapsing to his knees, he glowed green, he felt a small amount of goo drip from his mouth.
It was mana, he growled in annoyance and punched the ground cracking it.
"WHO DARES SUMMON THE HUNDRED KNIGHT AND THE REAPER AMICUS!?"
Amicus growled, Metallia cackled, the Hundred Knight might not have been what she thought it was, but the reaper was.
"I am the Swamp Witch Metallia, your leader and summoner, I summoned you both to destroy my enemies and make this pitiful world mine!"
Metallia cackled as Amicus growled and lunged to his feet only to crash at her feet.
"You're lucky your summoning drained my magic…. Who the hell is the windup toy?"
Amicus said, he felt much power around him, his energy started to return to him, he'd be back to a quarter of his strength in minutes.
"So, you do have a spine…. That is Arecchino, my faithful servant…. Just like you."
Metallia purred, Amicus sniffed the air, looking down through a crack in the floorboards.
"I smell Magic… Hmm…. I know this place… This is Niblhenne… Hundred Knight… Get up, you're as strong as me, that shouldn't have been enough to take you out…"
Amicus muttered, he tapped the small creature with his scythe, he popped up and looked at the reaper, curious.
"Most beings don't even have half the magic to summon us… Or the guts…. That means you're either gutsy… Or crazy…."
Amicus muttered, Metallia glowered at this, Amicus wasn't someone who should about this.
"Hmm… Sir, Amicus…. You must be quite tired after being summoned for war by Master Lia."
Arecchino muttered before Amicus slammed his scythe into the ground, slamming the robotic servant into the wall with a blast of lightning.
"It's LORD Amicus, Hundred Knight…. It seems we have been summoned from the war we were waging to fight again…. Fine, who's head is on the chopping block…. You summoned us a purpose, didn't you…? Or did you just wish to torture us…"
Amicus chuckled as Arecchino climbed to his feet, he stood face to face with the Swamp Witch, he rested his weapon behind his back as he looked at the Hundred Knight, who now had a flame burning atop his head.
A summoning contract, Amicus knew, that only confirmed that Metallia wanted them to fight.
Why else would she chain them to this world?
"You're a clever one, aren't you?"
Metallia asked, Amicus rolled his eyes and smirked under his mask.
"If you know who I am, then you know how wise I am…. Now then… Who's the unlucky person who needs to die?"
Author notes
Phew, first chapter done! Yes, I know this chapter wasn't the best, I ain't the best at first chapters, as for Amicus? He will be the main chapter alongside, Metallia, the Hundred Knight and the others. I will be posting chapters every other Monday.
