Chapter 514: Fourth Fight: Stein & Bernard VS Cathyl & Vheslia 1
-----
Orb pointed out Bernard and his peculiar physical appearance. His entire body was very long and his nose pointy, he resembled a cartoon villain of some sort, which made the group feel like he didn't fit in this place. But he was indeed a vampire like everyone else, despite his wanky appearance.
"Bernard is a man that had a rather interesting past. He's an oldie here from the 700's… He has a past of rejection. I would say we shouldn't delve further; we would be offending him by speaking about his past without his permission. I learned of it from others who had heard things from him from time to time, but nothing too detailed either, other than when he was a kid, they discriminated him for his peculiar appearance. He was in fact born like this; this wasn't provoked because he became a Vampire." Said Dan.
"What?! He was born like this?!" asked Orb in shock.
"Calm down for a bit, don't be disrespectful…" sighed Kuro.
"S-Sorry." Said Orb.
"Indeed. It was never explained to us why he was born so strange. But after becoming a Vampire his sickly complexion was healed, and he became physically strong. I believe he was known in London as the Poison Heart Assassin, he used to take down those that offended him on his childhood, and corrupted aristocrats he disliked." Said Dan.
"So he's an assassin?" asked Frank.
"Pretty much, well, we all are here. I do also partake in such a job. Well, used to. Now I've calmed down my activities." Said Dan.
"I see… What specific abilities does he uses?" wondered Frank.
"Heh, it would be boring to tell you, wouldn't it be? Now let's see what's on store for your two little friends, I am also intrigued about what they do or what they are." Said Dan.
"Cathyl is a big minotaur. She's a brute sometimes." Said Orb.
"Mama's strong! She's gonna beat your friends no problem." Said Asterion.
"Indeed! She's very strong, she took care of us since we were toddlers all by herself! There's no stronger mama out there." Said Hilvera.
Cathyl's children who were present in the spectators looked at their mother prideful smile. Cathyl's body was covered in a heavy armor that offered a lot of physical protection, and she held a massive axe which Frank had gifted to her.
"Wait, aren't they pregnant though?" asked Annabelle.
"Ah, yes, but that was resolved before." Said Frank.
"Huh? How?!" asked Annabelle.
"Orb and I created second bodies and left the ones carrying our children back home…" said Axitl.
"Meanwhile, Cathyl and Vheslia did something similar, their original bodies are not present right now, as they're resting inside the house too, but their minds and most of their consciousness is concentrated in these second bodies. After becoming Demigoddess they gained the same powers as Orb too, so they could extend their souls and flesh like bright mass of ethereal energy, and divide themselves. With some help, they managed to get two bodies, although their stats ended halved, but that was solved with some good equipment and then a bit of relocation of stats." Said Frank.
"So such a thing can be accomplished? I didn't knew I could divide myself in such a manner…" said Gwendolyn.
"Well yeah you can, you just need some help from my part, its not easy to master such a thing." Said Frank.
"I see, I am glad to know that the babies are safe then." Sighed Annabelle.
"Don't worry, Annabelle, big brother always has everything thought out." Said Kamei.
"I-I am not that amazing, you know? But the thing I did with them was more because they insisted, they wanted to fight, I was actually kind of against it." said Frank.
"Such fantastical ways to deal with problems… You're really a weird bunch." Said Kuro.
"Hm, I don't even understand half of what they spoke about. What are these stats they're speaking about? I truly don't get it." said Dan.
"It's a secret… When you finally decide to ally our clan, we'll share it after an oath." Said Frank.
"Ohh? I see…! It must be quite the powerful ability… I wonder what it might be…" said Dan.
The spectators looked at the battlefield with expectation, Clementine gave the signal to Sebas, as the skeleton butler quickly waved his hand, the battle began right after that!
Stein, Bernard, Cathyl, and Vheslia locked eyes with one another, thinking about ways to fight and how to start it. they were expecting the other team to charge at them, but both teams were left looking at one another and trying to find an opening, the one that made the move first might be in a disadvantage.
But Cathyl was clearly not in the mood of sitting and waiting.
"Alright, Vheslia, cover my back, I'll fight this big guy! You can take the skinny one!" said Cathyl with a smile, her entire body emanated divine emerald winds, as she flew at the speed of wind toward Stein!
FLAAAAASH! josei
"W-Wait, you idiot, don't be rash!" cried Vheslia, as she covered herself with darkness to protect herself from the sudden rain of daggers that flew towards her!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"W-What the…? I didn't even see it come!" she thought.
Suddenly, she realized Bernard was gone form the scene, and she felt the presence of something lurking behind her!
"Hm, your manipulation of dark magic is interesting. You're capable of employing it for defense? I've never seen such a thing." Said the voice of a gentleman, as Vheslia glanced at Bernard emerge behind her through a mass of shadows!
"You're not bad either… Those daggers were filled with toxins… you're not a normal dagger user." Said Vheslia.
"Haha, you flatter me. Let's see if you can discern the toxins in this one." Said Bernard, as his cape waved and shadows emerged from them, he stored countless daggers inside his shadows, so many he was able to even shower Vheslia with them!
"Are you serious just going to shower me with daggers?!" cried Vheslia.
CLAAAASH!
Meanwhile, Cathyl's axe clashed against Stein's powerful arms, as her might pushed the giant pack a few centimeters…!
"Hmm…! You're strong…" said Stein.
"You can take an attack with your bare arms?!" asked Cathyl in surprise.
