The Legend Fake

Chapter 48 - The Battle of Izuru

"i wonder how Nishiki could lose against you?" The silver-haired lady asked as she looked at the sword Shun already had in her hand.

"Ught... Give me back the sword!" Said Shun who fell on the floor while looking up. Shun kept trying to get closer by crawling towards the woman.

"Shiori, the explosion has caused some residents to fret. What am I supposed to tell Mareka?" Ask the Dramist by mentioning the woman's name.

"Let's say this was all an intruder, but no one was seriously hurt." Shiver replied continuously researching Shun's sword.

"All right, I'll tell them." Dramist said then back into the fog and into the body of the king.

"So, you fooled all the citizens!? I can't let this go! I'll expose your lies!" Shun said continuously approaching until his hand almost touched Shiori's leg. Shun's hand was directly stepped on hard by Shiori. "Aarghgh...!"

"How are you gonna kick me? You can't do anything without this legendary sword, which is now in my hands!" Shiori asked bowed and brought her face closer to Shun.

"Gun!" Izuru's screams sounded from behind.

"Izuru!?" Shun turned to the side and saw Izuru running towards him.

Izuru dashed towards Shiori and directly slashed at her. Shiori casually took a few steps back to dodge Izuru's attack, but it seemed that Izuru was not too focused on attacking, but rather on bringing Shun away from there. "Let's stand!" Said Izuru lifting up then embracing Shun on his shoulder.

And just as the two of them had already walked some distance away, suddenly from outside a flash of light shot inward which instantly cut the chain of chandeliers in the throne room. The light fell right towards Shiori. But the chandelier suddenly became slowed down and then stopped in the air right above his head. "It turns out it wasn't a rash attack like that." Shiori said with a calm face.

Izuru had reached the exit of the throne room, where Rin and Iona were waiting. "This quickly take him!" The word Izuru gives Shun to Rin and Iona.

"Where is Karin?" Ask Iona.

"He's there, I'll pick him up too. You guys take Shun to the room first, and then you help me out here." Answer Izuru.

"All right." Said the two of them then immediately went to take Shun.

"You're not going?" Ask Shiori.

Izuru then turned around and walked back into the throne room. "Of course not. I'm not going back without the sword and the girl." Answer Izuru.

"I wonder, why do you still want to help the chosen one? Didn't he make you very angry back then?" Shiori asked as if she knew the events of that time, when Iona and Rin left Izuru.

"Where do you know? Has it spread across the country?" Ask Izuru.

"No, I'm the only one who knows. I've also been watching you for a long time, a teenager named Izuru from another world." Said Shiori suddenly making Izuru surprised.

"How do you know that? Can't the people here keep everything a secret?" Ask Izuru.

"Not really, not many people know, only the owner of the bar and the rich woman alone know and believe."

"What the fuck are you? Since when do you/watch me!?" Ask Izuru.

"From the beginning you got into town, do you remember those coins and threads?" Shiori asked raised her hand, then appeared a hanging bronze coin.

"That coin and thread!? So that was you?" Izuru asked starting to remember.

"Of course, I know all the anger and hatred you're craving. The world is unfair, people easily get what they want, while others have to work hard just to survive."

"Quite talk! Quickly release my friend and return the sword!" Said Izuru preparing to attack with his sword.

"All right, here." Said Shiori pointing her sword at Izuru.

"What's? You serious?" Ask Izuru.

"Of course, but on one condition. You have to be a part of us, you can use this sword better than your friend." Answer Shiori.

"Don't joke! I don't want to be a villain like you! Besides I can't use that sword, I'm not a destined person!"

"People who are doomed are only useful for activating legendary weapons, but most of them can't use them." Shiori.

"Why are you talking like you're the good guy here?" Ask Izuru.

"Maybe for you we are bad people, but what we do is for everyone." Answer Shiori.

"Is killing an innocent king a good thing for you? And again, if you're after that sword, wouldn't it be better to just attack the city? You don't have to involve the lives of innocent people here!"

"You don't know what we've been through all this time. We are trying to get recognition from all parties who own the legendary weapon. We did everything they ordered, but they were never satisfied and continued to use us. After many years, we finally came to our senses. If killing is much easier to do." Shiori explained everything.

"I don't care! I don't need that stupid sword to be strong!"

"Well... So all my rant was in vain?" Shiori asked, then she turned her head around. "Dramist, shut the silence"

"I'll do it." The Dramist replied suddenly behind Izuru.

Izuru turned around and immediately slashed at the Dramist behind him. "Yep.....!"

The dramist dodged straight back. "You're faster than the guy." Dramist.

Izuru then jumped towards the Dramist and directly slashed at him. But, Dramist instantly became a mist. Izuru's attack penetrated and he looked puzzled. "What's!? Where is he?" Izuru asked looking around.

"I'm all around you, I'm just the air fading your eyes." The word Dramist had yet to show itself, and when Izuru let her guard down, the Dramist instantly turned back into a solid behind Izuru.

"There you are!" Said Izuru directly slashing behind him.

The Dramist cancelled the change because Izuru's slash was faster than the change. "Damn it, if it's like this I can't attack!" The word Dramist flies when it becomes a fog. "Then I will face you directly!" The word Dramist turned solid when on top and instantly fell towards Izuru.

Izuru faced upwards and prepared to attack. Dramist darted down and attacked Izuru, but was caught by him. Dramist again attacked Izuru with his big hands and sharp nails. Izuru was still able to fend off all the Dramis attacks, albeit somewhat overwhelmed. "I can only defend, I can't counterattack!" Izuru said in his heart. Just then the speed of the Dramist hand decreased and it was Izuru's chance to attack.

"Here we go! I'll end with one slash, the poison element...!"

Seriate...
