159 Pressure (2/2)

Smirking he pointed at Lamont behind Nala and sent May to keep him occupied while he went after Nala himself.

”Here I come Nala...” Just before he could get to excited he felt the threat of death from behind and quickly dodged out of the way. ”Who!? Istina? You should have already left otherwise those Elders would have never come to bully poor Nala with you here.

Is this a trap to lure me out? Even if it is, it does not matter. I came prepared today, one of you will become mine today!!” Waving his hand once more new arrivals show up and surrounded Nala, Istina and Lamont.

The new arrivals being newly Created mutated Creed.

”Forgive me for showing my hand to early, I wanted to show you my take on the Creed that had mutated after I brought you back with me. You will also have to forgive me for cleansing the original batch as they were unruly.” He glanced over at Lamont while he spoke.

Lamont said nothing as he focused on fighting May, he was unsure if he was allowed to kill her or not so he held back and kept their fight to a draw. He was waiting for a chance to deal a fatal blow on Higras while he was being looked down on, that was until he saw his Creed brethren.

He now knew that Higras brought May to keep him away from the fight and unless he wished to kill Istina's beloved sister he would have no way to help Nala.

Istina looked at May for awhile before speaking as she moved next to Nala.

”You are a greedy man Higras, you want my sister, me and Nala as well as so many other beauties.

Why if only I could introduce my sister to him as well, I am sure she would forget about you in a heartbeat.” Istina said as she took out a long pitch black scyth from the Void.

”If he was here he would find this weapon familiar, Nala I won't take him from you but don't be mad when I hoard him away to myself after all he is my student.”

Istina said to Nala while ignoring Higaras, he noticed that she was not paying much attention to him and he could not help but try and figure out who Nala and Istina were talking about.

From what they had already said they had both given themselves to another and he could not sit still and listen any longer as he rushed the two.

He had to take one of them today and kill the one who dared touch what he desired, what was his.

”After I beat you half to death and get his name I wonder, will you recognize him if he becomes a pile of flesh before your eyes!!”

Istina only smiled as her scyth began to glow a deathly pale black as she swung at Higras, she put everything into this strike and aimed at sucking the life out of anything hit by the attack. Higras eyes narrowed as he smiled once more, looking over at May he was happy he took her first before Istina.

Once the Black blade wave reached Higras, he put up a barrier that absorbed the death energy from Istina's attack. Istina only looked over at her sister who had dulled eyes, she taught her sister how to awaken the affinity of life to help her stand near the top among their kind while she kept to herself.

Even after she awakened the affinity of life herself she still closed herself off from most things, only letting her sister and the young and growing Nala get close to her.

”When did she teach you that Higras? My sister would never do so unless threatened, what did you do to May?” Istina finally looked at Higras as she asked.

When he heard her speak to him he did not reply, he appeared before May and placed his hand inside her head.

”Who said our kind is immune to being controlled, everyone thinks I simply conquer the women at my side but this is the truth that you will soon experience first hand.”

May began to yell in agony as soon as Higras placed his hand inside her head, before her eyes dulled once more and she became motionless.

He then took his hand out of her head and looked over at Istina and Nala.

”Enough games!! Today both of you will become mines!” Higras then absorbed May's energy before tossing her at Lamont who rushed at him, then he ordered the Creed to attack Lamont and kill May.

Lamont knew he was being delayed but had no choice but protect May and defend himself from the Creeds assault. Nala had already ordered him not to hurt May when they first fought but now he was getting an order to take May and flee away from here while they fight him off.

Doing as he was told Lamont rushed into the barrier below as he killed the Creed trying to block him, Higras did not know that Lamont possessed the affinity of Destruction until now and his face soured as he lost a few of his Creed to Lamonts attack.

He then ordered them to retreat as they were no longer of use, and he lost May.

Looking over at Istina and Nala he began to focus his attention and drew out his sword.

With both hands on the Spear of Oblivion Nala wanted nothing more than to kill Higras and her rage was causing the Spear to vibrate uncontrollably. Istina noticed it and knew what was about to happen and quickly broke a seal she had on her, soon a massive barrier enclosed Nala's Realm.

Unsure why Istina did such a thing both Nala and Higras forgot about the vibrating Spear and looked over at the now laughing lunatic Istina. Nala was the first to snap back and pay attention to the situation at hand but by the time she did it was already to late.

With the Spear no longer in her hand and the Creed rushing at Higras's location in a hurry, she could only look at Istina's obsessed gaze and the youth who held the Spear in his hand as it pierced through Higras's chest.
