Chapter 20- Archer's Wings Of Weapons
Author's Note: Only three chapters will be coming out this week due to vacation. After vacation, I should be able to update faster. (:
Kanda and Krory jumped back as the needles impaled the ground, and Kanda swiftly swung Mugen to deflect a sudden arrow from Zareth.
Gran grinned as he watched, and Komui watched in worry as Kanda and Krory continued to dodge.
"Kaichu: Ichigen!" Kanda called out, and he sent several insects out at Aroc, but the insects were destroyed as Aroc's needles ran through the insects, and Kanda jumped back to dodge the needles.
"These two are quite good." Krory said as he panted heavily while he dodged Zareth's arrows.
Kanda sent more insects at Aroc, and the insects collided against the needles as the two glared at each other.
Krory ran at Zareth while swerving around to avoid the arrows, and Krory grinned as he swung his leg straight at Zareth.
"Don't underestimate me." Zareth muttered, and Krory's eyes widened as Zareth suddenly landed on Krory's outstretched leg, and he stared at Krory emotionlessly as one of his arrows shot into Krory's leg.
Krory gritted his teeth as he jumped away, and Zareth landed on the ground as he faced Krory.
Kanda landed next to Krory as he panted heavily too, and Aroc grinned from above as his wings fluttered.
"No more holding back."
"Indeed."
Kanda held Mugen, and his other glowing blade appeared in his other hand, and Krory's hand became blood red.
Zareth and Aroc stared in surprise as Kanda and Krory ran at the two, and Aroc gritted his teeth as he sent a storm of needles down at the two.
Kanda and Krory dodged to the side, and Kanda jumped into the air, and Aroc gritted his teeth harder. Kanda slashed through Aroc swiftly, and then landed on the ground as Aroc landed hard on the ground as blood fell down on him.
Krory grinned as he sunk his fist into Zareth's stomach, and the albino was slammed against the wall hard.
Kanda and Krory stared at Gran as the giant man stared down at the two others.
"Hmm… Not badly done. You didn't killed them both though… Excellent." Gran said, and he raised his arms and they turned into the blade and mace as Kanda and Krory braced themselves.
"Bring me a good fight, and I'll show you how strong you are!" Gran said as he swung his arms at the two, and they jumped back quickly.
Kanda scowled as blood rolled down his cheek, and Krory winced as his arm was cut.
'He's good for a large enemy. His Innocence also seems to be able to turn his body parts into weapons… But where is his Innocence's location?' Kanda thought as he continued to dodge swiftly, and Krory tried his best to find an opening.
Gran grinned as he blocked Krory's attack, and also blocked Kanda's at the same time.
"Is this all?" He asked as he flung the two back, and they skidded on the floor.
Kanda panted heavily as he readied his two blades, and Krory cracked his red knuckles as the two braced themselves.
Kanda then ran forward, and Gran swung his arm down, but missed as Kanda swerved out of the way.
"Hakka Tourou!" Kanda called out, and he hit Gran straight in the chest, and the large man was pushed back against the wall.
Kanda landed softly on the ground, and he readied the blades as Krory appeared above Gran.
Krory punched Gran in the head, and Gran gritted his teeth as he tried his best to stay standing, but he froze as Kanda suddenly appeared on the other side of the wall as he left a long slash through the wall and Gran, which created a large hole in the wall.
"Good…" Gran muttered before collapsing onto the ground, and Kanda sheathed Mugen as Komui peeked out from where he was hiding.
"Now that these three are taken care of, let's go save Allen!" Krory said, and he ran off toward where a long line of doors were.
"Krory, wait!" Kanda called after him, but froze as a large explosion shook the building, and the three quickly looked up to see the ceiling explode, and someone crashed onto the floor.
Kanda unsheathed Mugen, and readied it as the person stood up.
"Ugh…"
"Die!"
Kanda swung Mugen at the person, and the blade collided with the person's black arm.
"Ack! Why are you attacking me, Kanda!?"
"Bean Sprout!?"
Kanda, Komui, and Krory stared in surprise as Allen grinned nervously, and Kanda cursed as he moved Mugen away, and then glared at Allen.
"Why are you falling out of ceilings, Bean Sprout!"
"I was-"
"about to be killed if he doesn't move." Someone cut in, and Allen gritted his teeth as he looked up in time to jump back as someone else fell through the ceiling and impaled where Allen was just standing.
Kanda's eyes widened as the person landed on the ground, and then pulled their double edged blade out of the ground.
"Yo, Kanda! How ya been?" Seedry asked with a grin as Kanda braced himself while pointing Mugen at Seedry.
"This time you won't be getting away!"
"Yes I will because you are ignorant." Seedry stated, and before Kanda could reply, he froze as a black pentacle suddenly appeared on his cheek.
"Oh, it looks like another hour has passed."
"What!?"
Kanda stared at Seedry in surprise as the boy chuckled happily.
"Last time we fought you thought that you dodged my Demon Blood Strike, right?"
"Of course."
"But I told you, Kanda! I can't miss when my eye is open." Seedry stated as he pointed to the new eye patch over his left eye.
"Wait, "Demon"? You mean…"
"There we go, kinda slow though."
Seedry sighed as he stuck his blade into the ground and said. "Hellblade The Second: Demon Blood Strike."
Seedry pulled the blade out of the ground, and Kanda narrowed his eyes.
"The Second lets me inject the enemy the needles hit with a very slow Akuma Blood Virus. However, it is far stronger than the normal blood virus cause even if you can't be affected by the poison, it'll stay in your body no matter how long until I remove it!" Seedry stated happily as he pointed Hellblade at Kanda, and Kanda readied Mugen.
Krory, Komui, and Allen all moved away from the two as they faced each other.
Seedry reached up for his eye patch, and slowly took it off to reveal his pure black eye.
The red target symbol appeared, and Komui and Krory gasped at it.
"N-No…" Allen muttered from behind the two, and Krory and Komui looked back at Allen.
The two suddenly gasped as Allen's eye had activated, and Allen trembled as he stared at Seedry.
"Kanda! Get away from him!" Allen shouted, and Kanda glared back at Allen.
"Why should I!?"
"His left eye is an Akuma's eye!"
Surprised? There's more to Seedry that meets the eye (no pun intended).
It seems that the Exorcists on Gin's side are a bit weak except for a few. U.U; Those few would probably be Kiki and Seedry.
