Chapter 34

Agony

Mayumi's POV

"Focus more power when striking you're sword!" I shouted, at one of the recruits. The King requested me to train a few of the new knight trainees. As I watched them, Evia appeared next to me and sat down with me.

"So, how's the training." Taking of deep breath of fresh air.

"Tiring. Takes the recruits a few tries to get it right, honestly. They could have ask Night or Chi to train them, I don't see why they asked me. I'm not great at leading people, more of an independent person." Soon, I started to get depressed. (Not after, what happened to the my tribe). I clenched my fist and Evia, noticed it.

"Hey stop, clenching your fist like that. You're going to bruise your hands." I noticed what I was doing, and stop right away.

"Its my personal business. You don't need to butt in about it!" I shouted at her. I still remembered that distant memory... the destruction of my tribe. Thinking about it, makes me want to holler at the moon. Showing my hatred to the people that destroyed my tribe. I snapped out of it, when the king appeared in front of me.

"Mayumi? Are you alright?" He asked me. I replied, in a cool tone.

"Yeah, I fine your Majesty. Something you need?" He took out some documents and handed to me. When opening it, it showed pictures. Having their bodies brutally mutilated. It made me sick a bit. "What is this?"

"A week ago, I sent a units of guards to fix the seal of Feita temple. Which keep the curse monsters from destroying Velder and Hamel. However a few days later, after sending them. Only one came back barely alive all bruised up. Alerting me about this." I took a guess, on what he has to say.

"Let me guess, you want me to find the source, thats wiped out the units of soldiers, neutralize it, and report back knowing its okay?" He nodded his head. "Alright, this will be a snap." Just as I was about to leave, he stopped me.

"Wait, I don't want you to go one-ma...woman army and take on whatever the hecks killed my troops. I heard Night's brother Eden. Is currently residing in Velder. I want you to team up with him and work together to get rid of the source."

"I rather do this alone your lordship. I'm pretty strong by myself." He countered my speech.

"Yes, but Eden. Has been training and lived in the Elven forest as a Night Saver. He'll be a good guide around Feita forest and a survivalist." Giving up, I simply accept to work with him. "I already notify him, about this so no need to explain to him. Meet him at the entrance to Velder." I nodded and left to Velder.

(Geez, why do I have to get paired up with Night's wannabe brother. I bet he's the same as Night. A Calm and Serene boy. I've heard of him, but I never actually saw him. Because I was training in the forest, and when I returned I had to head to Hamel immediately with Blaze.) I took a deep breath, as I rode my horse to Velder.

~Day Later~

It only took me a day. To get to Velder, which was pretty quick. Heading to the front entrance, I saw no one there. (Sigh, he should arrive any minute now). I decided to wait, for him. After, a while a figured appear. Holding a bow.

"Oi! Are you Mayumi?" He asked me, from afar.

"Yeah." He soon start to run towards me. When he finally got to me, he was panting heavily and was catching his breath. When he finally finished he stood up.

"Um... are you Eden?" I asked him. He gave a cheerful smile and replied.

"You bet, I'm Eden Harpingale(Note: Night and Eden, live in different places and have the last name of the person, of whoever took care of them. Ex. Night's last name is Hann, he was raised by Ara Hann. But, they are still blood-related brothers).

I looked at him, and tried to compare Night with him. The only, thing similar was his Hazel eyes. I started to doubt him, actually being Night's brother. But I didn't care, I just wanted to get the mission done and returned home as soon as possible.

"Well, whatever. I don't really care of your relation with Night. I just want to get the mission done."

"Man, thats a harsh response. Considering, you just met me." He looked at me, with doubt. I just continued ignoring him and began heading to Feita. As he was along with me.

"So Eden, considering we never met. I thought you were with Night, when you went to Velder. Where is he now?" I asked him. He started to have a glum look.

"Night, ran off with a girl...he left me." He said depressing. The girl? He must be talking about Mizuki, I wondered what she wanted with Night. We continued to talk and a while later, we were at the Feita Forest. We then heard a roar and a person screaming. Eden was the first react as he headed in the forest without thinking.

"Hey wait up!" I tried to catch with him. But I ended up losing him...I was alone, in the dark forest of Feita. I thought carefully, of where I was going hoping to find the path to Feita Temple. Passing a tree, I heard rustling. I went into a stance, where I was about to strike whatever was going to come out. When it popped out, I unsheathed my sword and strike. I immediately stopped on who it was.

"Hey, what's with you swinging your sword its just me." It was Eden, he was hanging upside down. Holding an armful of apples and eating it.

"Where were you?!" I got angry at him, for leaving me. He continued munching on the apple, as he talked to me.

"Ar, wer luking..."

"Please chew and swallow. Before speaking." I said to him. He swallowed his food and spoke.

"I was looking for where the voice was headed. But I lost its track and got hungry, so... I climbed up a tree and found some apples. Want some?" He handed me one of the apple.

"Yeah sure." I took one from his hand and began eating it. We sat next to the tree eating, he began to spoke.

"You know, I can tell you're feeling down lately." I began to spoke as well.

"What makes you say that?" He looked at my face, and spoke once more.

"Well you seemed down about something, it shows right on your face. Want to tell me what's bugging ya?" I looked away, and continued eating the apple.

"Nur ov yur..."

"Eh, looks who's talking on chewing before speaking." He smirked fiendishly. I realized what I did and immediately spoke with a pissed look.

"It's none of your business!" I shouted at him. He began chuckling about what I did and I felt embarrassed on what I done.

"Geez, you're like Night. Only your more fiendish than him." I mumbled.

Meanwhile.

Night's POV

"Achoo!" I sneezed. Mizuki, noticed it and replied.

"They say, when you sneeze. Someone talking about you." She giggled a bit.

"You think so?" I looked confused. We were ready to leave to Elverna as everyone from Mizu we're saying their goodbyes. Her father appeared and gave his last farewell.

"Farewell dear daughter, you too Son-in-law." He gave a hearty smile. I simply laughed and scratched my head. Mizuki, then used the teleportation stone and we soon warped back to Elverna where we noticed a giant airship about to land.

"Wow, what is that?!" We both look in astonishment. We noticed someone waving their hands in the air.

"Oi! Night! Mizuki!" I recognize that person. It was Blaze! He looked somewhat different. He was wearing a uniform and had a different looking Nasod Arm. He landed the airship on a open area of the ground and stepped out of it. Where we then approached him.

"Blaze, what's up with the airship?!" I said with a surprised look. He gave me a big grin and laughed.

"Well funny story, but I'm now the commander of an elite group of nasods." We gave him a blank look for a bit. Before we shouted in surprise.

"Eh?! The commander!" Me and Mizuki said in sync.

"Yep. Hehe. So what have you guys been up to?" Both of us began to blush of his response.

"Um nothing happened!" I was the first to response.

"Yeah nothing at all!" Mizuki added in. He began to have a mischief look on his face.

"Ohhh, did something happen between you two while I was gone?" Soon everyone popped in.

"Yeah, what exactly happened you two." Chi had a coy smile on her face.

"Yeah tell us!" Sora joined in. Soon everybody began to tease us, and tried to get the answer out of us. The only who was not here was Mayumi, Yumi and...OH CRAP! I forgot.

"Hey did Mayumi, Yumi and Eden. Return yet?" I asked the group.

"Oh yeah, thats who I was forgetting." Blaze added.

"You left Mayumi back in Hamel?" Kosen Replied.

"It was by accident okay?! What about you Night, I'm sure you left your brother back at Velder!" Blaze exclaimed.

"Only because, Mizuki. Took me back to Mizu!" Everybody began to look with a blank look at my response. It lasted for a bit or minute or two. Until Mari broke the silence

"Did Night and Mizuki do it?" Me and Mizuki both responded in an instant.

"No we didn't!" Soon everybody, began to ask question.

"So what exactly happened at Mizu. You two?" Chi began to have a sly look.

"Nothing happen!" Mizuki began protesting with a flustered look.

"Then why were you at your hometown with Night?" Nyte started joining in.

"Its not like anything happened. My father wanted to talk to me and he let me bring one friend so I decided to go with Night." Mizuki replied. Everybody began to calm down.

"Aww, for a second there. I thought something interesting happen between you and Night like you two got engaged." Sora made a wild guess and we both reacted with a flushed look on her faces.

"Thats exactly, what just happened." I thought, I'm sure Mizuki thought of it too. Gee I wondered what my brothers up to?

Mayumi's POV

We finished up eating and we soon headed towards Feita. Where we noticed two men and they noticed us.

"Oh so you must be the two that the King sent?" A man with black hair, wearing glasses responded.

"Yes sir. We came to investigate the disappearance of all the soldiers from Hamel." I responded, the other man walked up to me holding his sword up his shoulder.

"Thanks for assisting us. I'm Lento and the other guy is Allegro. We heard that you guys are skilled at taking care of demons like these." I nodded my head. They began to walk towards a gate of some sort.

"This is the gate thats preventing the monsters from attacking Velder and Hamel. However the seal is going to break soon and we need to renew the seal. Or else, Velder going to be done for." Just as we were about to get closer. A group of glitter soldiers appeared and began to attack us. Me, Eden, and Lento began to attack them while Lento walked up to the gate and tried to seal it.

I began to dash across the glitters slicing them to pieces, using my twin swords. While Eden began used his hook to jump into the battle and slice them to bits using the bladed part of his bow while shooting arrows at them at close-range. Lento began to attack them using his sword and took them out with ease. It was an easy victory, as we began to wipe away their number one by one.

"Look out!" Eden shouted, I looked behind me and saw Dullahan behind me trying to swing its sword at me. Luckily I was barely able to dodge it and I immediately countered against it. Swinging my blades against its steel-plated body. It tried guarding, but I imbued my swords with the nature el to immobilize him with the seeds that were attached from my attacks with my sword. It trapped him in place and I then imbued my blades with lightning and cast thunder on the Headless Knight. Shocking it and causing it to fall down in pieces.

"Yes we got him!" Eden began cheering. I checked to see Lento progress with the seal and it was almost done.

"That was too easy." I smirked.

"Well, well...looks like they didn't stop you." A voice replied. I began to look around to where it came from and I noticed a silhouette sitting on a tree. She began to jump down and she looked at me with her sharp primal eyes.

"Looks like I'll have to take care of you myself."

"Who are you?" I asked her.

"I'm you. The other you, to be exact. I'm sure you met the other Nyte from your Nyte's wedding." She smirked.

"Then you must be from the Alter world." She nodded her head, with glee.

"You got it!" In an instant, she appeared in front of me and wolf claws appeared out of nowhere."

"I wouldn't move if I were you. Otherwise, I'll brutally beat you to death like a wolf." She smiled. I clenched my teeth on what would happen next. A arrow then shot her on her leg. Which gave me a chance to strike, I tried to hit her but she distances herself from me before I could hit her.

"Shit! Looks like I wasn't ready for that." She looked at Eden pointing his bow at her and began to smile.

"Well, you somehow look like Night in your own way. Perhaps are you his brother?" He nodded his head.

"Well then I guess I'll retreat for now. But I warn you, I'll shall be back." She was gone in an instant, the moment we blinked. What was that about. However it didn't matter now, because the seal was renewed and the Monsters of Feita were sealed in that temple.

"Great job, you two. Will report to King Chung about your work. You two can return home if you like." We nodded our head and said our farewells before we left back to Elverna.

"I've been meaning to ask you? When Night left you, did the girl who took him have Blue hair?" I asked Eden. He nodded his head. So it was Mizuki, I began to have a fiendish grin. I can't wait to tease Night and Mizuki when I get back home.

I felt a little better after that mission. It somehow calm my dying Agony I had for a long time.
