Road to Valhalla Chapter 45: Shadows That Haunt
"How do you believe in someone?"Believe it or not, I have never been able to put my trust in anyone my whole life. I simply couldn't confide, no matter how hard I tried. Something in me just made me think no one cared enough to be told anything. I've always thought that people were hiding their true faces. All those people, so terrifyingly capable, they all seemed to be putting on faces, sometimes they weren't aware themselves. But I can almost always see the extraneous layer on people. Its tough but also very thin and transparent. I can almost always see through people. Almost.I wouldn't have used that word three months ago, before I met Lady. ****************Felix and I stood frozen faced by a three headed wolf that growled and drooled, blocking our way forward. It wouldn't have been a big deal if it wasn't emitting that dark aura that covered the ground like mist and danced like a flame all around us. "Cerberu
Road to Valhalla Chapter 46: Cassius:Felix
Almost.I wouldn't have used that word three months ago, before I met Lady.It is a terrifying thing for me but Lady has more than one layer. And though I can see through those layers at times, it is utterly incomprehensible inside. Whatever she is at the core and whatever she is thinking still eludes me. I do suppose it's better to not find some things out, though I'm quite sure that at the end of everything I would eventually learn the truth."I know what you are thinking".That is something I want to tell people. I wish I could say the same to Lady too. I can't, perhaps I'm still far too afraid to let people see through my layers.I'm no different. ****************I could hear the havoc the shadows were wreaking above us. And as we descended down those stairs, I knew everything was coming to an end. This wasn't the first time I was stepping down those stony stairs, I knew what awaited below. I could clearly forese
Road to Valhalla Chapter 47: Seraph vs Felix
"And in my dear Ruman!", the old woman raised her hands wide and stood up from her wooden chair which toppled to the ground. Her eyes were seeing some grandeur of Ruman and that of Wallachia, that she had sordidly imagined out of spite for those that ruled her land. Indeed, they were the vilest creatures to her.I found myself seated in her warm little hut with a cup of steaming water placed on the table in front of me. It was supposed to be tea. I looked between her and the cup of tea. She went back towards her kitchen silently, apparently having finished her story and I finally realized where I was at the moment.I took the cup in both of my hands and snuggled it close to my face, feeling the rising vapor from it. I brought it closer to my lips, intending to take a sip when she turned around and addressed me. I looked at her without drinking the tea."When I was a young girl, my father hid me in that trunk over there for 10 days. I could barely keep my head intact in there. It was
Road to Valhalla Chapter 48: Open My Eyes
I suddenly opened my eyes as if waking up from a nightmare. I stood surrounded by a hoard of Cerberus shadows between me and Felix who stood at some distance, blankly looking my way. I looked to my side where Deli was still crucified. She wasn't moving at all anymore, though I'm sure she hadn't quit breathing yet.I grasped Ebony tightly and knowing these shadows were no big deal, I launched straight at Felix, easily cutting through all the shadows. It didn't take me long to understand that Felix was just testing the waters. These shadows were weaker than the ones before and I knew he was just trying to conserve his magic.Still, it was no time to be lagging around, I spared no moments before I headed for Felix. I wasn't going easy on him. My entire focus was solely on the move I was making. I could hear the muscles in my body stretching, breaking and exerting with all my strength as I launched back to back attacks against Felix. He remained on the defense and dodged all my attacks.
Road to Valhalla Chapter 49: A Peaceful Place
"Seraph!""...Who?""What are you doing?! Oi! Wake up! Seraph!"I wondered who Seraph was as I kept sinking into my darkness. It was really dense but really warm and I couldn't help myself from sinking deeper and deeper into the unknown. Seraph. That name sure had a nice ring to it. But what was it...? I couldn't remember at all. But then when I got down to thinking about my own name, I couldn't remember that either. And that was concerning. I was supposed to have a name...right? I should know it and yet, I couldn't tell you anything at all about myself. Who was I? What was I? What was making me so relieved right now? Why was I so satisfied? And yet, what was this painful sorrow lingering around me, barely avoiding touching me?I opened my eyes as I sank in that ocean of darkness. I wanted to know where that sorrow was coming from. But all I could see was a pair of eyes looking back at me. Crimson red eyes with an endless depth staring right into my soul. I wanted to reach out to tho
Road to Valhalla Chapter 50: My Only Friend
Blood spilled on the ground beneath his feet as he stumbled and back away. I let go of Ebony which was still inserted into his chest. He kept looking at me with disbelief. I didn't look straight at him, something in me couldn't face him. He began coughing blood, I suppose his heart had either burst or stopped working."Seraph...", he forced his voice out, "How could you?"I couldn't yet look at his face, I didn't even turn to face him. I pursed my lips and looked up straight to find Chopper's eyes staring straight at me. I think he was urging me to turn around and face the man I had stabbed in the heart. I then looked towards Deli who was confusedly looking between me and Felix. "Seraph", I think Felix extended his hand towards me as he fell to the ground. He had begun to struggle breathing. I clenched my fist and quickly hurried over to his side finally."I told you...to...", he couldn't finish as he began coughing more blood.For some reason, the fact that he was ending made me fe
Road to Valhalla Chapter 51: Final Trial
I lost Lady again in all the storm that they were brewing."Why is Lady here?", I asked Chopper."The same reason all of us are here", Chopper looked at me, "You've done good with Ebony, Seraph. But even at your level, you can't beat that guy no matter how hard you try. In fact, even I couldn't take him if I was at my best. The truth is, right now the only one that can take him down is Lady.""Lady...?", it was certainly hard to believe, "Are you sure though?""Who are you doubting, idiot?"I simply couldn't imagine that Lady would be able to best that opponent. "Who is she fighting?", I asked."Lord Magnus", Deli spoke, "Chopper's right. I couldn't handle him either. Only Lady can do it now. And that's because he's immortal.""Immortal...? Then Lady...she can't take care of him on her own, not at her age. Shouldn't we-""The hell are you talking about? What do you mean 'at her age'? This is barely her prime. You just see. She's got something that can definitely save us all", Chopper
Road to Valhalla Chapter 52: The Winners' Loss
Deli looked like she was out of blood, her silver hair turned even lighter but her eyes were on fire. Lady was somewhere in that dust storm fighting her greatest enemy and I figured Deli was itching to join her soon.We started our assault on the mutant as strongly as we could. Sight put a barrier on him to muffle his sound and also on our ears to muffle out his magic. Instead of taking different sides, we decided to go head on. First, I cut through the sound wave and Deli then went in for the attack.We were successful at the time as Deli slashed the guy and ripped him in all sorts of ways possible. Her monstrous strength alone was enough to pummel that guy's face that tried to surface and so once she had caught him, he was done for. "Get back, Seraph!", just when we thought we had got him, Chopper called out and both Deli and I quickly retreated. The two of us made it to a safe distance but nothing happened."Chopper-san?", I wondered what had happened to him.Before he could answ
