[color=orange]"Dammit!!!"[/color] Kazeharu yelled as he and Amadeus stood in front of Hazels burnt tent, the younger of the two crossing his arms with a smirk. [color=skyblue]"Pay up."[/color] Amadeus said with his hand out. Kazeharu scratched his head, [color=orange]"Just take it out of my first pay check [i]Mini Boss[/i]."[/color] he said still alittle irritated, [color=orange]"How the hell did you win?"[/color] [color=skyblue]"Luck?"[/color] Amadeus said, lying. [color=orange]"Well whatever. Say, is there a place around here that sells Sake?"[/color] Kazeharu asked [color=skyblue]"Well I think tha-"[/color] Amadeus began to say as he was stopped by the sound of yelling, The two looked at eachother for a brief second before running ahead towards the sound. Amadeus and Kazeharu arrive at Nilara's tent where they see the two guards who stood in front of her tent laying on the ground, seemingly injured, and Nillara fighting what seemed to be a [Insert description of winner here]. Nilara struggled to get the damned creature off of her. It had sliced up her right arm pretty bad and now it was on top of her trying to take her head off. The sorceress would have none of that as she kicked it from behind and threw it off her. Despite the rather powerful kick the creature seemed to only be slightly dazed by it as it took a moment to collect itself. In the meantime Nilara frantically crawled over to the chest where she had hidden Leech. If she had a taken moment longer the monster would have had her but fortunately she was able to pull out her sword and jammed it into the jaws of the creature, it's maw of teeth were still dripping with her blood and with another good push Nilara forced her sword further into the creature to the point where if she wanted to she could spit-roast it on a fire. Once the creature lay dead, Nilara pushed it off from atop her once more and rose to her feet. That's when she noticed Amadeus and Kazeharu at the tent entrance. She let out a grin before grabbing her injured arm. Before she could say anything two more of the things broke into the tent and began to close in on the three. [color=skyblue]"Well Kazeharu, you ready to earn your first paycheck that you will immediately lose?"[/color] Amadeus said in a joking way as he unsheathed his Eclair, getting into a sort of fencing stance, [color=skyblue]"Arma!"[/color] He said as a light engulfed him and his armor appeared on his person. [color=orange]"Might as well."[/color] he said solomly as he also got ready for battle, unsheathing two of his four swords. Amadeus ran forward with Eclair at lightning speed, easily stabbing the monster on the lefts leg before anyone can react, [color=skyblue]"OBFENUS!"[/color] He yelled as lightning from his blade spread through the monsters body, paralyzing it in place. [color=skyblue]"NILARA NOW!!!"[/color] Nilara didn't waste time, with her good arm she cast her Soul Drain spell on the creature and watched at its life force was siphoned from its hideous body. The thrashing only added to the sheer unpleasantness of the thing as it tried desperately to escape Nilara's spell only to have the life sucked out from its eyes. At the same time the cuts on Nilara's arm quickly bega to heal till they were nothing but faint scars. [i]"More to the collection"[/i], she thought to herself before turning her attention to the remaining Velelu. Kazeharu immediately threw the two swords in his hands into that air as he clapped his hands together [color=orange]"MABAYUI"[/color] he said as the blades of the swords began to glow and shoot light into the beasts eyes. [color=skyblue]"Lunaris Arrows!"[/color] Amadeus chanted as balls of light appeared around him and then shot towards the monsters legs, bringing it to its knees. [color=skyblue]"KAZEHARU! NILARA! Decapitate it in one move!"[/color] he yelled. In a fraction of a second Leech sensed Nilara's need for a fire enchantment and the runes etched into the blade glowed fiery red. Nilara ran forward before sliding past the creature. Leech had done its job and in that swift slide swipe the sword, which was hot as molten steel, sliced the creatures stomach open leaving it to spill out it's guts onto the ground, "You're up!". Kazeharu, seeing what Nilara was doing, unsheathed Chiruppi, his prized enchanted blade, and ran a finger along the blade. Not a second later, the blade burst into flames. [color=orange]"Holy flame, burn this monstrosity and cleanse it from this earth! FENIKKUSU!!!"[/color] he said as he did a downward slice, shooting a wave of fire towards the fallen monster. It began to burst into flames as it eventually turned to dust. [color=skyblue]"Shit, Nilara do you know what the hell is going on here?!"[/color] Amadeus asked as he looked around at the chaos engulfing the camp. "Hell if I know, those sonsofbitches weren't just attacking though. The two that came after the first was back up. These things are organized. Maybe someone trained those...things, questin is who. Nilara looked over to find her tent guards laying dead on the ground, [i]"That explains that then, sorry bastards"[/i]. Amadeus wide eyed at this, [color=skyblue]"Velelu are naturally antisocial to each other, if they're working together then that means a special one is nearby, controlling them."[/color] "What do you mean special?", she asked. If the boss Velelu was anything like the ones they fought then it wouldn't be that much of a problem. However, things were never that easy. [color=skyblue]"They're called Mindflayers, Velulu's who're incredible intelligent and strong willed. They can use magic and control other Velulu's"[/color] "Well shit, if that's so then we might need to find the others. While I know I'm capable, I can't watch over the both of you" Amadeus looked at the dead bodies on the ground, [color=skyblue]"I have two theories, either the Mindflayer is weak, or its far away. If it was strong, these Velulu's would be regenerating. We have a chance of killing it if we find it fast and strike faster."[/color] "Let's hope it's the former of those theories, eh?", Nilara scanned the battlefield that was once the camp, shit would be a lot worse if they didn't take out the Mindflayer soon. [color=orange]"Let's"[/color] Kazeharu said solomly as he looked around, wondering where the Mindflayer is. [color=skyblue]"Well then, lets go look for this Mindflayer and show it what happens when you fuck with the strongest warriors in Astrea"[/color] Amadeus said
