The battle of the four

Shuvu arie no monogatari volume 2


CHIKAGE POV

Cornard and Kuiaran were ready to turn us into wendigos.Suddenly someone broke the window of balcony on second floor.His arm was shot.Meanwhile Kuiaran let go of Avril and she was hit by someone.Avril escaped.

It was her,she saved me.She gave us an antitode against paralysis potion.That's it!The victims were paralysed because the potion was shed into their glasses.

"I am taking care of her."

"Ok.I am going after Cornard."

Suddenly she felt dizzy.Cornard was ready to strike but I moved fast and hit him to his vital organs.

"Are you ok?"

"I am fine.You take care of him."

"Roger!"

The four of us scattered and went outside.

YUKIO POV

Erina and I were healed.But where is Chikage?Meanwhile the rest of wendigo came after us.Perfect.

"Ready Erina?"

"Yes sir."

Our battle started.

CHIKAGE POV

Cornard and challenged me.He was going to fight me with his sword.I used my blade.We clashed.Cornard always had a reputation of being one of the best swordmen.

I was able to keep up with his speed.Suddenly he flew into the air.Curses.His main element is wind.He used Windschwert (wind sword).

He striked me to my chest.I lost too much blood.He striked me with Windhieb (wind slash).This time my cheek was cut like a piece of paper.

I still was training so I knew I wasn't ready to use my main element of power.He was bitting me.But I was able to endure most of his attacks.I moved fast and with my blade I cut his head.

I almost collapsed.Then I saw an arrow going to the opposite direction.It was Yukio.Yukio and Erina rushed to see me.

"Wait,I need to help her."

I rushed to find the mysterious woman with red eyes.

UNAMED WOMAN POV

Kuiaran an I were equal to physical strength.I let my guard down for a second and she pierced a  dagger to the area of my spleen.I didn't know how much blood I lost.Then she had several daggers.So I had no choice to use my scythe.

She was skillful.But the pain was still there.I could hardly keep up with her.She stabbed me twice to the same spot.I was able to endure some of her attacks.I suddenly collapsed.

She was ready to strike me behind my back.I moved fast and cut her in half.That idiot,why he came?

Not to mention he was bleeding...

"I am fine.But someone needs to take care of your wounds.I will see you around."
