The Last Conjura Chapter 11
Chapter 11 RYUU “Well, for one, Adachi himself. He never got over Asgorath. The way it looked, the way it made him feel… he never got over that” she said, almost whispering in the process. “I also feel like Asgorath drained him.” “Drained him?” “He didn’t fight like he normally would” she shook her head. “It was starting to feel like he was intentionally holding back.” “Maybe for fear that he’d trip off Asgorath once more?” “Probably. I could never really tell” she huffed. “He wouldn’t even talk to me after that. As a matter of fact, he refused to talk to anyone. I thought it’d blow off after a couple weeks but months passed, and he never once uttered a word.” Why was she avoiding my question? I asked her how Asgorath changed her. Why'd she loop back to more Adachi talk? “You didn’t speak since then?” I kept her bluff running. “Just once. A couple weeks before my suspension came in” she lifted her head off her knuckles and locked eyes with me. “We talked about you.” Hehh?

Chapter 12 RYUU “When you told me road trip, I wasn't expecting—" "Boarding a flight?" I nodded. "Well, if we were taking a cab to Princeton, I wouldn't have gotten you some clothes. Plus, I did say we needed to get as far away as possible" Gabby replied, glancing out the window for the seventeenth time this trip. “Is there something you’re looking for?” “Yeah. Just a… yes. That landmark. We're here.” "Where's here?" I was about to slump back into my seat. "Our stop." "Huh?" "We're getting down here." "W… what do you—" "Come on." She got up stretching. Am I tweaking? We're almost six miles above ground level. What'd she mean by 'come on'? “Aren't you gonna get up?" “You’re joking right?” “What, are you scared?” “Me? Noooo. Because I routinely jump off— of course I'm scared. There's nothing normal about jumping off a plane mid-air. What would the other passengers think? What would the pilot think?” “Other passengers? Pilot?” No way. I shrugged off my seat and t

Chapter 13 JORDAN The second I walked into the house, he hit me with the bullshit. “Well, did you see him?” “That’s a very good evening to you too” I slotted off my crocs and turned to head to the living room, but he was standing right in front of me. “Can I at least have a decent shower before you choke me with your inquisitiveness?” “Did you see him?” “who?” “Don’t play with me, Jordan. You know exactly who I’m referring to.” “You know, sometimes, I wonder why you can’t do some of these ‘side quests’ by yourself. Nooooo. It's gotta be Jordan this, Jordan that. And you sit at home all day, hiding behind that annoying muffling mug mask” I wearily said. “You know how important it is for—” “Yes yes, please spare me the details. My brain dissociates anytime you bore me with that time continuum speech.” I forced myself to put up a more serious demeanor now. “Yes, I saw the kid, and he’s nothing like you said he would be.” “I said it depended on varaiables—” “What did I just

Chapter 14 RYUU "Three. Based on the three threat levels, we have three types of emergencies." "Yes. Green. Blue. Red." Harumi and Hiro maintained an impressive back and forth while we sprinted towards the scenery. "Green. Minor issue. Maybe one of our mates gets missing in the forest." "Or the food supply is running short. Green Emergency calls our attention to minor issues. Blue." "Important issue. An unidentified threat found around our borders. Any activity involving extermination or intentional ignorance is usually classified under the blue level threat." "Red? Infiltration. A foreign threat within our borders." “Ryuu" Harumi called out, "...you’re falling behind. Are you trying to conserve your energy?” The hell I was! These guys were fast. Way too fast. I couldn’t count the number of people that had sprinted passed my tiring ass. I was dragging Hiro and Harumi back. “They’re all heading North of the stream. It’s probably where the commotion is coming from. I know a

I didn’t even break a sweat” he held my face up, and I felt my lungs collapse. "Turns out you’re the weak one”He sent a powerful right for my face, and smacked the consciousness out of my body. “So, who wants to avenge little Mr.—”*POWWWWWWWW*I had to get it right this time, and I did. With the most powerful force I could muster, I punched him the second he backed me, sinking four knuckles straight into his spine. *THUDDDDD*Hs body slammed into a tree, and I forced myself back up.“You didn’t really think… dodging your Kusarigama… was my plan, did you? ” I coughed out more balls of blood while simultaneously trying to add pressure to my ‘punctured’ stomach.I’d noticed something about the way I fought. The first time at Phantasm Duel was probably a coincidence, but it happened again d

Chapter 16JESSICA“North this, South that, no it’s right around the corner. That bastard’s been making me run around in circles for almost three weeks now. And anytime I try to return to headquarters, he’ll run to the higher-ups, and they’ll just double my problems. For a #4, the runt’s a crybaby.”*SLASH*I cut through a piece of unchecked wood with my blade.I hated the way Jared would always run to the higher-ups whenever he wanted something to go in his favor. Just one of them saw his rants as actual rants, but I hadn't seen him in a while. Only God knows the amount of action I’d missed back at headquarters. For some odd reason, he didn’t want me anywhere near there. That had to be the only reasonable explanation for why he’d kept me gallivanting for so long.I wouldn’t have complained if I at least got a decent piece of action. But it’s been grass, grass and more grass.*SLASH*“Next time I see that asshole, I’m gonna kill him” I thought to myself, about to tick another unrestr

I don’t know, maybe make up something and—”“You want us to lie to her… again?” I wearily added. “I appreciate the help, but when Emily’s mind’s made up, her mind’s made up” I smiled.“He’s still unconscious though. Aren’t you gonna need help—”“Hover” I whispered, and a ball of air gently took him into its nest.“Oh.”“Goodbye Harumi” I smiled at the pretty redhead. “Goodbye Hiro” I scuffled his neck long hair."Dai…su…ke" I heard him mutter. “Where are you gonna go?” she asked, just before I took the back door.I sighed.“My last resort."….My family was a very complicated one. And unlike other people that have some light in the beginning or at the end of the tunnel, I kinda had neither. It had genuinely been shit for all twenty-two years of my life. The happiest moment of my existence was probably when I left this God-forsaken plot of land I called home, and to

Chapter 18JENNIFER"I'm guessing the regeneration ability doesn't come with a regenerating set of brain cells" It said with nonchalance. The longer this fight went on, the more annoyed I became. I still hadn't found a way to kill this… whatever he was yet. As a matter of fact, I was yet to land a single blow on him. "Enough silly games. Why don't we end this once and for all" I tried catching my breath. "Thought you'd never ask. Simple technique… Multiplicity."Like it wasn't hard enough fighting one of him, now I had to contend with almost forty more. "Ready to end this?" I heard from no one in particular.This was my guess. He wasn't a mimic, but somehow, he managed to hit me with super speed, a decent amount of super strength, and now, multiplicity. Whatever he was, I hadn't heard of it. But if multiplicity was his way of ending the fight, then one very important detail sprung to my intuition. One, if he's a low or moderate level threat, he's a newbie. Since when do simple

The Last Conjura Chapter 23 KENJI "Derecho is an ancient technique" I started. "It was believed that only the strongest protectors were gifted such power. I mean, for something that shows up once in a blue moon, it had to be bestowed on just about the strongest or most deserving protectors around." "What do you mean 'something'?" he asked, now audibly interested. "Is it as strong as a colossal technique?" "Stronger" I didn't hesitate for a single second. "As a matter of fact, even if you combined a simple, median, and colossal technique, it'd be nothing compared to Derecho." He was quiet. "I'm sure Gabby told you about Asgorath." His eyes lit up. "Derecho would destroy Asgorath" I said, not missing a sing word. "Asgorath was your brother's strongest technique." "His colossal technique." "But even Adachi apparently wasn't deserving of Derecho. You were." "You sound so sure. Why would—" "There are three phases of Derecho. One…" I lifted my index, "...the Dormant phase. The

Who knows, perhaps they would have accidentally mated wit ya" I smiled. "Watch your tongue, before I rip it out for ya"I sensed him getting angrier by the minute. "Still got a dead sense of humor I see. Something's never change, do they?""J… Jared" Ittetsu coughed out some blood and got s couple stains on my coat. "W… what is he—""Quiet" I swung my feet in his direction, and knocked the wind out of his lungs before he could speak. "You should be thanking me for not killing you myself. Tch. You look pitiful.""Somethings never do" Raph talked my attention back to him. This would only take a minute. Walking closer with my hands still in the pockets of my coat, "I don't want to have to kill you to teach you a lesson this time. Stand down, or better yet, surrender, and we'll find a way to sort this mess out already.""Like he

"I won't ask again.""Who we are is none of your business. What we're here for should be your concern" Jester assumed a fighting stance. "You want to play games? Fine. I'll beat the answer out of you myself."We sprinted at each other and traded a couple blows. His attacks were weak but precise. This one was a little stronger, but there was nothing my technique couldn't overcome.He ducked underneath a thunderous right, only to get hit in the same position, by the same right. "Urk. So the rumors are true… Phantomist" he wiped a blood stain off his lip. I was dead silent and emotionless, just stood thinking of the best possible way to—"arggggghhhhhh" Joker shouted from behind, and before I could dodge, landed his loc

That'd mean Gabriella just released her technique. I sneaked a peek at her, and she was just as shocked as I was. From the look on her face, she didn't understand what was going on eitherEven after releasing Riptide, Ryuu managed to harness the tiniest bit of it, and kept his heart beating with the slab of circulating water on his chest. "Miss Gabby, are you okay?" he emotionlessly asked. "Y… yeah." she answered. "Good. Who is he?""He's my…""Finally woke up, but on the wrong side of the river, I guess" I cut in before Gabby could talk. "That's one pretty solid 'harness' you've got going on" I gestured to his chest, but he didn't take his eyes off me. "Miss Gabby, any orders?""Don't kill him… that's all.""Mnn" he nodded, tilting his head down. *ZOOMMMM*He sped in my direction. "Oh, you're fa

He's still in the infant stages, but I'd say he's growing pretty well. So, what do you think?""You couldn't have just said that before you made him torch me?" Ittetsu whined, audibly unimpressed. "Well, he needed a trigger, and I needed a demonstration—""So the kid had to torch me. Okay. Got it. Let me return the favor"In one swift course of action, he threw a fiery left hook for Jordan's chest, but his hands passed right through. "Heh?""Oh yes, I forgot about that. Space Manipulation. It creates a whirlpool pocket dimension to cheat the laws of probability, basically coexisting with my power if probability manipulation. Because if my powers are activated in actual space and time, reality could collapse in on itself, right Jared?" Jordan smiled. "Right!"Like the pest he was, I slapped Ittetsu across the
