[color=aquamarine]"Kissing is, like, generally practiced all around Elysia. Maybe it's your race that's so sensitive that they make kissing a big deal".[/color] The swordsman, who's slicing through the Reavers at ease, managed to look back at Eilsel just to give him an exasperated and smug look before going back to commit genocide. Eilsel, on the other hand, felt even more irritated. How can this guy be so smug all the time?, he thought to himself as he filled his side of the battlefield with toxic mist and hardening it to encase the Reavers in toxic crystals, trapping and killing them slowly at the same time. Though he hates to admit it, but Eilsel thought they make a pretty good team. The swordsman was a good vanguard as his giant sword seem to be able to cut through the enemies' plasma blasts while Eilsel would support him by giving him a floating shield whenever a Reaver would attack him from his blind spot and Eilsel will through a javelin to the Reaver's head. Whenever Eilsel felt they were overwhelmed, he'd generate a wall of liquid acid and splashed the enemies forward, burning their armor and skin. Thanks to Eilsel's kiss, the swordsman was unaffected by the wave and he even rode it to push through the enemy lines and kill more of the Reavers. Remembering his mistake earlier, Eilsel made sure to glance up from time to time and sure enough, the Reaver's ship was picking out more and more of their dead kin while a new ship was on its way here. [color=9e0b0f]"Really funny if you could smoke out the ones up there"[/color], Eilsel's companion said. While thinking about what he said, the last of the Reavers began to fire their weapons. Once again, the swordsman charged forward, cutting through their plasma blasts with ease while Eilsel ran behind him. He generated liquid acid while running, hardening the tips into crystals, and made the remaining five Reavers-on-a-stick-through-the-head ala Eilsel. He threw their dead bodies towards the other left-over bodies of the Reavers. [quote]When the last of them were dispatched. His companion would flourish his blade with a slice, spreading the ichor across a wall to make his blade clean. He set it on a clip in his back before getting back to Eilsel. [color=9e0b0f]"Not a clean fight but whatever."[/color] He held out a hand. [color=9e0b0f]"Name's Rook. Chief of Security for the Cerberus Gate. Rides yours if you want it, least we could do after helping us out."[/color][/quote] Eilsel inclined his head to the side. That's why he was so powerful. Guess he wasn't a know-it-all smug like what Eilsel thought after all. Eilsel returned the gesture and shook back his head. "Eilsel. Just a humble adventurer. I appreciate the offer, but my ship's just a few walks away from here. You can catch a ride with me there instead if you want." [quote]It was then, behind him, that Eilsel would notice that there was a half dozen others, some of them wearing similar uniforms despite the race. They were carrying bags and moving out to make sure that a nearby truck still held its contents. [color=fff200]"Cargo's secure sir!"[/color] Shouted one of the females before she made a bowing motion to Eilsel. [color=fff200]"Thanks for the help!"[/color] She then set out to make sure that the rest of her crew was okay and ready to get the truck started. It was obvious they seemed to be stealing it, considering how they had to rip out a panel. Rook looked back to his Eilsel. [color=9e0b0f]"What do you say?"[/color][/quote] [color=aquamarine]"Before I answer I answer that question..."[/color] Eilsel turned his attention back at the approaching ship. He concentrated his energy between his palms until he could form a sphere with both acidic and toxic properties, then he willed it to shoot towards the ship. The sphere was too small to be able to be even noticed by the enemies. It shot straight towards the inside of the ship with ease as it easily corroded the ship's surface and, with a snap of Eilsel's fingers, willed the sphere to explode. The energy released by the sphere immediately fried almost all of the Reavers inside the ship while the mist poisoned the lungs of the rest and corroded everything it touches including its energy-driven engines, eventually causing the ship itself to explode. Eilsel turned his attention back at Rook only to realize he was staring at him along with the other soldiers near another ship. [color=aquamarine]"I don't mind them taking that ship. Like I said earlier, I have my own ship that's just a few walks away. If you want to come with, better decide quickly 'cause I don't want my companion to wait any longer. Besides"[/color], Eilsel shyly said as he looked elsewhere, [color=aquamarine]"I kind of have no idea of this Cerberus Gate everyone's talking about, so I thought it would be nice if someone could guide me there..."[/color] [hr] [center][@ShwiggityShwah][/center]
