128 A Message (2/2)

Looking closely Draig tried to find a trail but found that it was becoming rather futile, the wounds were so small that it was hard to pick up a trail especially when the whole Academy reaked of bloodshed from the years of Deva killing demons and each other alike.

”Damn it, it seems we will be going to your Faction after all” grunted Draig causing Keiko to become relieved, she knew she wouldn't be able to go on her own because the paper collar around her neck thus this was a welcome announcement.

With this said the Group tried to make it to the Faction's manor as quickly as possible at least until Draig happened upon an unwelcome sight, the Feratu's fists clenched as his eyes narrowed.

A stack of corpses laid there but it was one in particular that allowed him to know who these people were, looking at him as if waiting for his arrival was the dead stare of the Dorm leader. His glassy gaze seemed to fill Draig with a fury he hadn't felt in a long time, not since he had been blacklisted by the Guilds in the old world.

”Let's go. . .” stated Draig as the aura around him seemed to carry a heavy tone to it.

With that the group sped up though they were finding it difficult to keep up with Draig at the moment, despite the distance of the Mugen Faction Headquarters from the Dorm Draig and company managed to make it in time before anyone was killed but that didn't mean there wasn't torture going on.

”Where is that bastard” roared Tsukuba speaking from behind the handle of his sword as his arms were unuseable for the time being.

”We don't know, he took off with our Faction leader not long ago. You should have passed him on the way here” cried a female Deva covered in lacerations.

”Don't lie, we have heard the rumors. He is your great General isn't he, tell us where he is and we can overlook your slight against the Disciplinary committee” stated a larger youth bordering on twenty, on his back was a anchor with the hooks sharpened to look like an axe blade.

”Ha, maybe they aren't lying. He probably ran upon realizing his situation” started Tsukuba but he suddenly felt a terrifying burst of energy from behind him causing him to turn around quickly.

Seeing it was only Draig he chuckled.

”So look who came running back, did you see the little offering we left you on the hill” asked Tsukuba with a cruel smile.

”It seems I was too merciful on you before” started Draig causing Tsukuba to become confused.

'You call dislocating my arms merciful' thought the Disciplinary Committee member.

”It's a habit I never thought I would develope but I will correct my mistake today” continued Draig as he began walking forward calmly.

”You think you can hurt me like you did before with a sword that doesn't cut” laughed Tsukuba loudly despite the experience he had with the Rapier before but Draig's next words caused him to fall into confusion.

”That wasn't my sword. . . It was my brush” spoke Draig as he placed his hand on the grip of the Thousand Fold Blade causing his Avatar to begin manifesting above him causing those around him to gawk at it.

'What kind of monster is he'

'His avatar is a Legion'

'What are those monsters'

These were the thoughts of those baring witness to Draig's Avatar for the first time.

Tsukuba however was looking at the image with a paling face, those figures were staring down at him smiling cruelly it was almost as if he was in a trance.

”I received your message loud and clear, there is no reconciling our differences” stated Draig as he unsheathed the Thousand fold Blade causing everyone to look at it in awe.
