Twilight Aftermath: Kingdom ( Twiath: I )

Chapter 5: 13th

Frantial yells [ You're mine ] [ Light Sword Attribute: Excalibur Divination ]

Frantial sword disappears in her hands, and a giant yellow sword — about thrice the size of the demon — appeared above the demon. A chime bell rings and, the sword instantaneously goes down, slashing the demon below it until the tip of the sword reach the ground.

And as soon as it touched the ground, the huge demon shattered into crystal-like pieces, and the giant sword shrank to its normal size. Frantial picks up her sword [ That's 13 demons ]

After Frantial said how many demons she killed, the entity began counting

[ Three ]

[ As amazing as always Frantia- ]

[ Two ] [ Huh? Why are you counting? ]

Frantial repeatedly teleports five feet away until she reaches the me in Hybrid Realm-

[ What are you doing here Chiaro!? Join your sister- ]

[ One ]

His once amazed face covered with excitement-

[ You guys.. are.. our only.. last hope- ]

Are now conquered by blood coming from Frantial's mouth with suddenly having 6 hands with 66 fingers in total inside it, shivering as if it's trying to escape out of her mouth.

After that horrific scene, our surroundings turn back to being white and black-

[ What just happened- ]

[ What I was counting was the remaining time for the curse to kill Frantial ]

[ Curse-? ]

The entity starts walking around-

[ When someone kills 13 demons and they're a rank lower than a demon called Satan; six hands with 11 fingers each will come out of their mouth no matter where they're. This is called the Satan's Grip. ]

[ And in that time, both of you know this ]

Along with his black surroundings, the entity teleport behind my back and put his hand on my shoulder-

[ Despite that, Frantial still killed that 13th demon in order for you to survive ]

[ But.. she didn't have- ]

[ She had to ] The entity goes in front of me and raised my chin [ Cause you're weak. ] and starts walking away

[ You were afraid of going in Frantial's way to steal that demon despite exchanging blows with her for more than a decade. ]

[ You didn't believe what the Viceroy said about the curse ]

[ You didn't have confidence in your skills hence she had to die ]

[ That's right, Chiaro ] The entity looks at me [ It's all your fault ]

My eyes enlarges and-

[ Are you going to do the same thing? ]

[ Someone dying because of your weakness? ]

[ Consequences happening because of your lack of confidence? ]

The entity's voice became louder and deeper

[ NO, CHIARO! ]

Our surroundings turns again to when we saw Frantial fighting the demon, but this time. She didn't die yet-

[ Instead of sitting on the ground unable to take a step. You'll fight ]

[ Light ]

[ Instead of watching someone die. You'll fight ]

[ Attribute: ]

[ Instead of having someone save you. You'll fight ]

[ Sword ]

[ Only when you start fighting is when you get to control your fate ]

A yellow-glowing sword manifested in my hand, and as soon as I made contact with it- my surroundings turned back to normal, to when the knights were restraining me down.

And in less than a second I swiftly teleport every five feet away until I reach the knights who have the possession of the girl.

At that moment-

[ Get your ]

My right eye has a symbol of "A" and "\" striking through it, but it's not enough to distract my vision

[ Hands ]

My body feels light, and it feels like I can do anything.

[ Off her ]

[ Who is this monster- his voice paralyzed my whole b- ]

[ Christian, get your grip together! Take the princess to the captain- ]

[ C-Copy that sir.. ]

[ Heh, interesting ] said the guy who ordered all the knights to kill me and proceeds to walk towards me- [ Looks like there'll be a play tonight ]
