The Last Conjura Chapter 19
Chapter 19JARED"Probability manipulation. For seven and a half minutes after activation, a user is able to predict, control and manipulate any physical event. 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

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

"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.

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 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

Prelude RYUU “You planning on picking yourself up? For the seventeenth time today?” he said, while I laid writhing on the floor. “Come on now, get up. We don’t have all d—” “Shut Up!” I replied, wobbling to my feet, more tired than pissed. “Oh?” he tilted his head in shock. “This was supposed to be a sparring lesson. You’re supposed to be helping me.” My breaths were beginning to get louder. “Instead, you’ve been tossing and throwing me around for the past hour. You’re trying to—” *WHOOSH* Without warning, he sprinted towards me with the most devilish expression on his face. His arm swung so far back, he left no opening to dodge or duck underneath it. Only thing I could do, was brace for impact. *POWW* *THUD* “Watch that loud little mouth of yours now” his 6’3 frame towered over me while I winced on the ground. “We’re not mates.” “You’re twenty-four, shamelessly whooping a nineteen-year-old’s ass. You want an award for th—” *SQUASH* He planted his foot right on my bruis

Chapter 1 6 MONTHS LATER RYUU … I hate it here. “Well then why don’t you go ahead and resign? ‘Wong’s Books and Stationaries’ doesn’t even need your lazy ass. Hmm? Did she hear that? “You come in here every day, later than you came in the day before. You don’t clean, sort or look after anything. But at the end of every month, you come asking for your monthly bonus.” “About that, Miss Wong. November’s ending today. I was wondering if I could—” “Well I oughta—” “Ma’am, please take it easy.” The sixty-year-old was held back by a customer before she could reach me. “Sir, I think you should leave.” “Let me go. Let go of me” Wong kept screaming, trying unsuccessfully to claw at my face. “Yeah. You’re probably right.” “And don’t you dare come back. You hear me? Don’t you dare come back!” I pushed passed the transparent glass doors of the bookshop and they slammed behind me.

Chapter 2 RYUU “Take it easy n—” “Get back” I said without thinking. “How did you do that? How… How are you alive?” I turned from Jared to Jennifer. Nothing made sense. “Oh?” “This is new” Jennifer said with a smile. “Something funny?” I turned my attention to her. “You might want to calm down Ryuu. We don’t have the time for all this. We’ve got to go—” “And what about the people who just died? Huh? Jennifer? They’re your ‘weirdo’s’ right?” “Wow. He’s all sentimental too” she annoyingly beamed an even harder smile. “Thought you said this one was gonna be different. He’s even worse than the rest of them. Remind me never to pair up with you on a mission again.” Mission? “Well the feeling is very much mut—” *CLATT* I picked a piece of ‘fusiform’ wood from the broken counter, and stood poised at both characters. “Someone better explain to me how your deep cut just healed up, and how a goddamn—” “Put that down before you hurt yourself.” “What’s going on Jared?” “Put the woo

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

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 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

Chapter 15RYUUThe second he pulled its blade out of me, I clattered to the ground, sinking to my knees. My vision went blurry. No… not again.“I thought they said you had potential? What’s this? 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
