For You This World I'll Destroy

Time Dysplasia (1)

—10—

The echoes of my footsteps were heard every time I stepped between the streets of the ruins of the city. The forest grew winding between the multi-storey buildings, spreading flowers of light that became the guide of the road. The colorful mushrooms grew large, slowly eating the remains of relics from previous civilizations.

“Any, there's not a single Malice here. Is it possible that White Order has finished everything?” I muttered as I reached the heart of Junon city.

If there's no Malice here, it's true, the White Order attacked Nadja's expedition team. But, it felt like even the White Order's headquarters this place was too quiet.

Chrysant's hunch is getting bad. Khanza said there is a big secret in this city that he should not know. I saw around me the ruins of a ruined city, darkened to charcoal after being engulfed by a huge fire. But looking at the superadical flora growing, it was strange to say the place fell ten years ago was absurd.

This place seemed to have fallen a century ago.

Suddenly Chrysant's feathers goosebumps. A thick killing intent stabbed him in the back. Following his instincts, I jumped up and almost avoided the death slash from the black-robed figure. Ice crystals shot, I almost took off with my two splints.

“Wait a minute, we are both human, there is no need to fight like this,” I said.

But the black-robed figure shot out and slashed his black sword at me. Thin Chrysant brushed aside the slash after slash of the sword, but like a torrential rain the attack was unrelenting. Until suddenly…

BUKS!!

U-Ugh…! A powerful kick hit my stomach. Like a hunting tiger, take that chance and attack me again. However, to Chrysant, the kick just felt like a tickle. How not? It's been a day he's been ganged up on Malice. I think this is nothing!

“Gran Impact!” my shout called out to the shock waves that threw down my attacking figure. When he was thrown far away I immediately thrust out my two blades and pulled out seven lightning arrows.

“Black Company, lend me your lightning gaga. Thunder Arrow!” I said the one who released the arrow.

Fast forward seven arrows hunting my assailant. However, the dark figure nimbly avoided him and even restored his body balance. But he did not realize that the seven arrows of lightning were stuck on the electric poles around us. I smiled and snapped my fingers,

“Dawnbreaker,” I said.

A huge lightning bolt from the electrical wires that splattered on the ground and crept through the puddles around us. They ferociously grabbed the dark figure and sent him in the agony of hell. Helpless, the dark figure bent its knees with breaths of breath.

“You think it's just an ordinary arrow? It seems, you lack experience,” I said who then broke his bow and unsheathed a sharp dagger on the neck of the black figure, “Good magicians are able to utilize the environment to kill Malice. Don't you realize this place is full of dirty water? They are the best electrical conductors for my magic,” the girl continued to open the hood of the man's jacket.

But to my surprise, the man had a face very similar to mine. His short gray hair was like ashes that had been burned by the fiery orange in his smoldering eyes. Eyes full of hatred and revenge.

“You're a White Order?” my many.

But the man just growled and did not answer. Soon, Chrysant scratched a dagger on his cheek and threatened,

“Quickly talk if you still love your life.”

Furious, the man replied with annoyance, “We will not bow before you, Black Company fuck!”

I saw a chain shackling the man's neck, with thorns biting his neck. It looks painful, I thought. In the chain I can see strange writing on it.

“Batch 3366, Subject 893.. ?” then I opened up my google and my mask.

But the man immediately opened his eyes wide and said,

“The lazuardi blue eye.. Impossible, k-you, subject 03...?” he said, who suddenly approached me and did not care about my splint scratching his cheek, shook my shoulder and with frustration said, “Why are you conspiring with that rotten group? Because of them, our people's lives are full of suffering!”

“Our kaum? W-What do you mean?” many confused.

The man took off his grip on my shoulder and smothered his forehead, “T-No way.

H-ha? Brainwashing? What the hell is this guy?

“It's enough I heard your nonsense,” I said that I pulled my knife on the man, “If you still love your life, show me where you kidnapped the Black Company expedition team!” my orders.

Well, it's stupid of me to ask my enemy that. Of course that man won't show me. But suspicion filled my chest. Something's wrong here. Fortunately, the look in the eyes did not know that the man answered my suspicions.

“Expedition team? No human has set foot here,” said the man.

I've guessed. Seeing the condition of the city that is not in accordance with this time, makes me draw conclusions. It seems that I was caught in Time Dysplasia, a time distortion that melts time at one point, causing a time chaos that evokes many loopholes in reality. The gap then gave birth to Malice who also hunted the humans who were trapped in this chaos.

Time Dysplasia is a special ability that only Malice possesses. The Reaper, an S-type Malice who nearly destroys the world when he awakens in the world. It seemed as if Malice's seal had weakened so much that it could create a time distortion this heavy. Hmm, is it possible for the White Order to use the Moon Quartz to weaken the seal?

The more I worry... Dagger are you okay?

“What year do you think it is?” my many.

Uh-uh? S-S-One millenia is further away from my time? No, we find it hard to understand each other. Duh, really, if I get out of Junon, I will be detached from the effects of Time Dysplasia. Merely, as a Pathfinder, naturally, I cannot allow this phenomenon to expand. At least. I have to find where the Moon Quartz is and seal The Reaper.

Hmmm, is this what Khanza means by truth?

There was a loud noise from a distance, deafening our ears. Subject 893's face immediately pale to hear it, “T-No-no-no, in-directed it, Annabel?!” his yell then ran closer to the origin of the sound.

“T-Wait, I still have many questions!” I shouted, but of course, he wouldn't bully her. I also tapped my feet on the ground calling for acceleration magic and then like the wind, I darted behind the man.

— + —

Lightning splits the sky, like a small meteor Khanza shot up and landed right in the middle of a small settlement in the city of Hilfheim. A large amount of magic energy threw everything away, leaving behind the Witch and a few people who were still standing there.

“Should you fight back and make Khanza's work harder?” khanza asked to pull out his magic wand and summon an ice sword spear,

“Malice's son should just shut up and let Khanza kill you. That way, Khanza can destroy Emilia completely,” continued the witch with a very concentrated killing intent.

“K’laes Libera!” shouted a man who turned himself into a wolf filled with bones.

After his transformation into a wolf, the man shouted, “You all go! I'll hold the monster here,” his orders to the crowd.

“T-t-but-!” reply to the woman beside the man.

But he had not finished his sentence, Khanza had darted in front of the woman. The sword spear was ready to be swung by Khanza, taking his life before him. However, as fast as lightning the wolf pounced on Khanza and prevented him.

“I told you, run!!” the werewolf shouted telepathically.

Khanza laughed seeing the crowd running around in panic. Amused himself to hold the wolf in his hand, then shouted, yelling,

“Run to the end of the world, you will not survive! I'll hunt you all down until there's nothing left!”

Khanza easily kicked the wolf away from him. But then he woke up, Khanza off guard. Angry himself saw blood still pouring out of the most secure wound.

“Hemophilia Curse, hmm? I can't believe any of you have mastered Emilia's infuriating curse,” said Khanza, who grew the diamond that covered the wound,

“Sweetest. If Khanza is a human, surely the curse is enough to kill him.

The wolf spewed blood that poured out of its teeth. In his mind, cold sweat was pouring along in panic. You red devil, how could that wolf hurt a living diamond?

No, it's not important. From the start, how could the Wolf-like Son of Malice be able to defeat an S-type? His goal was simply to buy time so that his brothers could escape from this monster.

The wolf roared, calling out to the herd of darkness that had emerged from the darkness. They were three-headed dark wolves loyal to him. Cerberus, Malice type C.

Laughing merrily, Khanza followed the light of his eyes that shot from one Cerberus to another. Seeming to enjoy the fight, Khanza tore apart Cerberus one by one with his sword spear.

Blood dancing in the sky, Khanza used to be a vortex that shot bullets of darkness in all directions. Malice who was hit by the bullet was then burned until there was not a single feather left.

“Lumayan, passable! You are the opponent who first lasted two minutes against me,” Khanza said clapping his hand, booing the Wolf, saying,

“Protect your family, hmm? If I let it last longer, I wonder, can you keep your mind when your fangs and claws hurt your own brother? Hahahah!” continue the witch.

“Then, therefore we must die? Hah, just kidding.until the end, I, Vandal will always be against you, Reaper!” the darting Wolf shouted to pounce on Khanza, along with three other giant Cerberus that appeared suddenly behind the witch.

“Haaah. In fact, Khanza has offered the easiest way, but always rejected. Haah, I hate to borrow the power of that rotten goddess.but to stop Emilia's cells in your body, what can you do,” muttered Khanza turned her weapon back into a broken magic wand.

Not caring about the wolf who wanted to pounce on him, Khanza also stuck his stick on the ground. Earth tremors also appeared followed by tree roots darting and binding the wolves until they could not move. The thorn from the root pierced the wolf's skin and sucked their blood greedily.

“Why monsters like you want to live, Khanza doesn't understand. Isn't life rejected and betrayed by fellow humans so painful?” khanza said that he hit the heart of Vandal, the Wolf, with his bare hands,

“Don't you guys understand? I'm doing this for the good of all of you. Leave your life and time to me, so that I may bear this sin,”.

Suddenly an arrow of light shot out, Khanza immediately retracted his hand dodging. But the explosion appeared, a bright light immediately burst forth and blinded the witch's eyes for a moment.

When his gaze returned, Khanza sighed and ruffled the waist next door,

“Ah, that fake doll again.I told you to go all the way and come here instead. Basic, bad boy,” he said after seeing Chrysant and Albert carrying a Vandal run from him.

The woman's little laugh, holding her stomach,

“Does he want to join the Black Company demons I ate two weeks ago?” he said he laughed cynically.
