Chapter 56:

Yamada.. the One-Armed Hexer .. Finale

Testament of the Blood Moon


Setsuna is at the door!? Why did she leave the Pit!?
"My eyes can see all things in the area, even things not in field vision.."
"I like to call this ability Clairvoyance."
"My eyes saw all your attacks before you even launched them.."
"I can predict you based on the movement of your blood! It was useless to strategize against me in the first place!"

Oh my God, this chick is still talking..
Akinari looks fine but Ichika and Selina are in trouble!
Just who are they facing!
Damn it! C'mon Ichika and Selina! You can do this!
I can barely move again, she hit me in all my pressure points and immobilized my movements!
My healing ability is being slow as well! Just what did she do to me!

"I'm so sorry for this girls! I really didn't want to fight such beauties but I also can't disobey my orders from her Highness!"
Selina and Ichika both are trying to strategize attacks but the enemy quickly overpowers them!

"Ichika.. did your Crimson Familiar find out any clues to what this guys SG is?"
"Negative Selina, I haven't received a single piece of information yet."

"Damn it! This sucks! Every time I get close to this guy, he appears behind me and launches a random hit! It gets me everytime!"
"Ichika is he just moving really fast or is it a part of another ability!"

"My Crimson Familiar cannot tell, he is hiding it very well!"

"Oh great! Not even Ichika can see his ability! I got to rush him again!"
"Hiyaaaahhh!!"
Selina rushed forwards and threw a countless number of hits in just a few seconds, the enemy then disappeared and reappeared behind her

"I KNEW YOU'D DO THAT!"
Selina ducked and kicked backwards into the sky

The Hexer disappeared again and spawned in front of Selina again and kicked her in the face
and sent her flying
"DAMN IT! NOT EVEN THAT WORKED!"
"I'm losing strength, I need more Bloodlust!"
"Ichika.. I'm getting near my limit already.. please hurry and find out about that ability!"

"I'm trying Selina! Let me focus please!"

"Hahaha! You girls are so fun to play with, seeing your desperation to fight me is so bliss!"
"It truly is making my night!"

"Ichika! This guy is not even phased by us! We are no match for him! We need to take him straight on together!"
Ichika then nodded her head and called her 'bird' and it receded back into her flesh
"Right! Let me summon a stronger creature then!"

"Oh no you don't!"
The Hexer then appeared in front of Ichika during her summoning and drop kicked her in the head, Ichika flew back!
"GYAAAA!"
She hit the ground really hard
"You bastard!!! GYAARRRRGHHH"
Selina rushed him from behind and he spawned behind Selina again and kicked her straight in her spinal cord! Selina flew forwards and ate the dirt..

"NO ICHIKA! SELINA!!! ARRRGHHHH!!"
I struggled to get up but to no avail, the female Hexer kicked me in the face and head butted me. I went into a daze and everything started spinning.
The female Hexer then lifted me by the throat and threw me towards my broken katana..

"My my, it seems we are coming to a conclusion!"
"Shusuke! Are you ready to wrap it up here?"

"Yes milady! Please give me your orders!"

"Okay first off, grab the young woman inside of the hideout. She's right behind the door watching us, bring her quickly please~!"

NO.. YOU WILL NOT TOUCH HER!!!
Rage and hatred filled my heart, my Bloodlust is going rampant inside of me
"YOU WILL NOT HURT HER!!"

"Oh my! He's getting pretty worked up! Maybe that girl means something to him!"
"Shusuke, bring her at once!"

"As you wish milady!"

Shusuke disappeared in an instant and reappeared at the door, he swung the door opened and grabbed Setsuna by her neck and walked with her back

"AAAHHHH YAMADA HELP ME!!!"
"YAMADA!!! HELP!!!!!"

"ARRRGHHHHH YOU DAMN BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!"
"I WILL KILL YOU ALL!!!!!!"

Burning rage and hatred consumed me like never before..
I NEED MORE POWER!!!
GIVE ME MORE POWER!!!!!!!!!!
"I WILL KILL EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE!!!"

Just then my vision began to darken.. it felt like hellfire and brimstone within me..
My heart spoke to me again..

Pulse.. pulse.. pulse..
"GIVE ME THE POWER ALREADY!!"
Pulse.. Pulse.. Pulse..
"I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!!! I WILL SACRIFICE EVERYTHING!! JUST GIVE ME THE POWER ALREADY!!!"
Pulse pulse pulse pulse

All the rage and fury I once felt went silent!
My wounds healed instantly..
A new found strength was now surging in my body
Overflowing me..
pulse pulse pulse..
I do remember when I fought the wolves, I crystalized my blood
Is that my Special Gene? Is that what you're getting at
Pulse pulse pulse..
Are you sure..?
Pulse pulse pulse..
There's no more time to think..
I have one resolve
I need to crystalize my Blood again

It feels as though all my emotions were numbed..
No hatred, fear, or rage consumed me anymore..
Setsuna.. our promise.. I said I would never break it..
Watch this Setsuna.. this is for you..
I stand to my feet..

I close my eyes.. take a long and deep breath
And when I open them, a Broken Hex appears inside of my eyes..
I call out to the duo

"Hey pink haired girl and Shusuke.."
"I told you not to touch her didn't I..?"

"Milady, should I dispose of him? I feel no Bloodlust emitting from him, I can take him in one shot!"
"Wait Shusuke, something is wrong, stand back and drop the girl.."

"Hey what's going on with you?"

"I told you and you didn't want to listen to me.."

"You went and touched her, Setsuna.."
"Despite me saying to leave her alone.."
"You just had to wake me up.."
"Hehehehehe HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
"This feels wonderful! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
"You ignored my warnings HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
My laughs echo into the night

"Shusuke stand back now! Get ready!"
"Yes milady!"

"You kid! What the hell happened to you!? Answer me right now!?"
I grab my left eye and tilt my head backwards giving a grim stare

"Oh it's nothing really.."
"It just feels like I've been awakened.. that's all"
