Assassins Shroud Log 2

[15:55] A wanderer amidst plains, aimless in nature... Blind to the beauty which surrounds him.]

However, there was someone else-- Easily identifiable, by not only a spike of mana... But the sound it made. Human's sounded quite different from animals, with their footsteps. The blade is near instantaneously drawn, and pointed towards the sound.

"...Who is it...?"

He sounded oddly soft-spoken... For the man he was before.
(Goirou)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:00] A bit angry due to his loss to Satsuki, Melo roamed the forest to cool off since even his occult suppressing joints could not qualm the effects that anger had on him..

He couldn't help but to let his darkness lash out as he spoke.. "I can't believe that even with all this training, I'm still too weak to win against a lame holy magi like Satsuki! Ugh, she's not even strong but your sustainability is way higher than my damage, how do I stop somet-.."

His rant was stopped when he a blind man pointed his blade sword him.. The young lad was in the worst mood possible to be met with what seemed like hostile behavior..

"Someone who's going to kick your ass if you don't get out of my way!!!"
(Melo Kami)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:02] His head cants, and a light smile comes across his face.

"...Ah. I recall that voice... We fought once before. I believe. Likely when I rested within Huangzhou…"

"You are welcome to try, friend... Please, let your anger out on me..."

There was an even wider smile coming across his face, as the clearing seems to darken and waiver-- As if countless heatwaves infested the area... Illusions.

"...And I shall as well."
(Goirou)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:08] Before anything, Melo was still a blossoming teenager, still prone to irrational emotions and bouts of anger like any teenage boy would.. "Don't fucking act like i'm just some kid!" Melo said as he unsheathed his sword and dashed forth.

In that same instance, his aura would activate and raging winds, maelstroms and tornados would fill the area as poisonous slime began to ooze from Melo's blade, meaning that he meant business for once.


(Melo Kami)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:10] That soft smile upon his face almost seemed to warp into a much, much more demented one... His blade is twirled once-- As he remains still...

Until next time Melo blinks, to which, Goirou completely disappears, unveiling a loud screeching sound from behind Melo as his lightweight katana tramples through the air with little to nigh resistance... A deft outcome, formed by illusions and agility.
(Goirou)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[16:13] ** Goirou has inflicted an injury upon Melo Kami. ("Temporary Injury", "Temporary Injury", "Temporary", "Duration: Medium (4 days)") **
[16:32] His first movement would be an easy counter... Though, not to say the one whom aimed to bring down the blade upon Melo's back was Goirou himself. No, it was a hallucination-- One that when counter, simply dissipates into the same darkness that festered throughout the clearing. It only grew, darker, and darker... Until Goirou simply couldn't be seen, with his speed.

And when it all went to darkness, when none could be seen... Melo would feel a thrashing pain upon his bake, as sharpened mythril drags itself through flesh with nearly no resistance. Blood would spurt from the wound, and Melo would begin to see again... Yet in red.

"You know... Threatening the blind is an extremely rude thing to do..."

The blade was flicked to the ground, sending droplets of crimson unto the grass below, as opposed to the puddle Melo would be in due to his wound.

"...Just like all of Huangzhou, you, are weak. Fools who would protect an Oscuri… From me. Fools who would dismiss one of their greatest fighters... For a disgrace to Eternia. For a child, of a god that is forbidden... For chaos, they abandon Order...Yet even they, themselves, do not see it..."

It was unlike him, to speak so soft, so wisely... Though a hand is slowly lowered, towards Melo.

"...Take my hand, and come be a spectator with me... Huangzhou does not deserve the strong willed."
(Goirou)

[16:41] {Item} You drop Challenger.
[16:41] {Item} You picked up Challenger. Dropped by Melo Kami. .
[16:43] The battle was fierce, and new to Melo... Only once before had he fought someone with such a sway over illusion magic.. This was to be that same person, however that was information the young lad had forgotten as he dashed in, swinging his sword recklessly and hurling tornados everywhere..

While Melo was enraged, Goriou was calm and even though the two went hand in hand, it was only a matter of time before Melo was caught off guard by an illusion. This cost him the entire fight as he fell to the ground in pain.. Tears were briefly wiped away as blood feel from dripped and spirted..

Melo had lost, horribly.. However, this wasn't the end.. He'd be forced to listen to Goirou's words..

The young lad didn't want to listen but, he spoke of some truth.. Melo didn't know whether it was his own talent or the fact that he agreed that Haung really was weak..

Melo had dominated just about everyone there, being years younger than most.. "What... can you even offer? Ya only won cuz' I'm fucking pissed right now!"
