70 Chapter 68: A Vengeful Spiri (2/2)
”I ʂυρρσʂҽ I ԋαʋҽ ƚσ ƙιʅʅ ყσυ ƚσσ ƚԋҽɳ...” Ivery sighed
”If you can, by all means, do so.” Luther grinned
”Vҽɾყ ɯҽʅʅ.” Ivery swung the sword at him
Luther turned his scythe around and hit her in the abdomen with the bottom of it's rod.
Ivery flew back from the impact.
”Damn it...too much force.” Luther hit his forehead, he felt like a piece of his heart was torn off with that very blow he caused to Ivery's body
He bit his bottom lip in frustration that he had to fight with a mysterious being, controlling the woman he loves the most.
”Lutris! Don't kill her!” Yannel shouted
”Why the hell would I do that?!” Luther shouted back
”S-She's technically your enemy!” Yannel yelled
”My enemy is whatever's controlling her...what's stopping me from completely obliterating whatever it is because it's attached to her!” Luther felt irritated at the fact that Yannel thought he was capable of killing Ivery
”Oh...” Yannel sighed with relief
”The sword!” Yannel yelled
Ivery's body rose up from the ground and she appeared to be unphased by Luther's attack.
”That's just...creepy...” Danya said as she covered her eyes
”Lutris! You have to try to break the sword!” Yannel shouted
”Hm...” Luther nodded and waited for Ivery to make the first move
Ivery ran towards him in a flash and her sword clashed with his scythe.
”Whatever you are....you're awfully weak, considering that you're in a strong body.” Luther smirked
Ivery narrowed her eyes and her red eyes gleamed with stronger killing intent.
”Sƚσρ ԋσʅԃιɳɠ Ⴆαƈƙ!” Ivery angrily shouted
”I refuse to attack her body anymore....” Luther swung his scythe at her
”Lσʋҽ ɱαƙҽʂ ҽʋҽɳ ƚԋҽ ʂƚɾσɳɠҽʂƚ ρҽσρʅҽ ɯҽαƙ...” Ivery said with an evil grin
”I'm certainly weak when it comes to her...” Luther said with a chuckle
She instantly blocked his attack with her sword.
”Wrong, yet right move.” Luther smiled
Just as she was about to retaliate, she looked at her sword and her eyes stretched wide.
The red-glowing sword was sliced clean off, the glow that emitted from the sword died out and the red strings wrapped around Ivery's hand snapped off.
Ivery's eyes ceased to glow and the sword dropped from her hand. Ivery fell to her knees, and she groaned.
”Ivery! Are you okay?” Luther kneeled down to her aid
”My...stomach...” Ivery fell on her back and whined
”I'm sorry...” Luther frowned as he held his hand over her stomach
His palm glowed green. The pain Ivery felt completely subsided and she slowly sat up with the strangest feeling.
”What happened?” She asked
”You were basically possessed by a sword.” Yannel walked over to them and answered her question
”R..Really? Did I hurt anybody?” Ivery asked
”No...thanks to Lutris.” Yannel shook his head
”Sorry...” Ivery looked down and apologized
”You have nothing to be sorry for....it wasn't you..” Luther kissed her forehead
”I know...but-” Ivery noticed the broken sword beside her started to glow again
”Uh...look..” Ivery pointed at the sword
Luther turned his head and saw the glowing sword.
A red glowing humanly figure emerged from the sword. The glow around the figure dissipated and a nude woman with long glowing red hair that conveniently covered her breasts stood in front of them, and her scarlet red eyes looked at them with nothing but malice.
”I'ɱ ϝɾҽҽ.” The red-haired woman smiled
Ivery looked at the woman with confusion, Yannel looked away and blushed, Danya still had her eyes covered and Luther sighed.
She quickly ran towards Luther.
”Enough of this.” Luther threw his scythe at her
The scythe stabbed into her chest, and suddenly her whole body glowed and was sucked into the scythe.
...
”Weird...I've never seen that reaction before...” Luther raised an eyebrow
”Maybe it's because she's actually a spirit.” Ivery said
”Oh...” Luther thought that made a lot of sense
”A vengeful spirit...” Yannel said
”Clearly it was,” Luther said to Yannel
”My weapon absorbs the soul of anybody it enters, even with a scratch, the soul can be claimed....but since she was purely a soul of what was a person...my weapon just simply absorbed her...” Luther thought outloud and laughed to himself
”But why was she inside of the sword...? Yannel asked
”Maybe it was a punishment...” Ivery said
”From now on, no one touch anything.” Luther said
”And tell that girl too.” Luther pointed at Danya
”Danya!” Ivery shouted
”Is it over...?!” Danya moved her hands away from her eyes
Ivery nodded.
Danya stood up, she walked over to the three of them and she smiled once she saw that Ivery was acting normal again.
”From now on....don't touch anything.” Ivery told her
”Got it.” Danya nodded
”Don't touch....anything.” Ivery repeated
”I won't.” Danya said
”Even if it looks safe.” Ivery said
”I got it, I got it.” Danya sighed
”Alright...” Ivery stood up and looked around for the map
”Wheres the map...?” Ivery asked
”You lost it again?!” Yannel exclaimed
”I'm so sorry that I forgot to hold onto it when I was 'possessed' by a sword ghost.” Ivery sarcastically remarked
Yannel crossed his arms.
”Here it is master!” Eness had the map in her mouth
”Thank you Eness.” Ivery took the map out of Eness's mouth
”So where do we go now....this place went from beautiful to scary...” Danya shivered at the sight of the red cherry blossom trees that still dripped with a thick red liquid
”I think what we saw when we came here, was just a realistic illusion made by that spirit.” Ivery said
”So...this is what this place actually looks like?” Yannel asked
”I'm pretty sure, since it's still the same, even after the spirit is gone.” Ivery said
”We have to go that way.” Ivery pointed west
”Okay...let's hurry then...” Danya nodded
