Chapter 48 - Cutting Grass

Both men faced each other. They were both determined, none less than the other. Haiel tightened his hold over his sword as the thug leader brought out his kusarigama, thoroughly confusing the viscount at first before he recognized it, "You… your from the Sekai Kingdom." "Correct, old man." The thug smiled, "I suppose our weapons are quite infamous for their deeds." "Hmm, they are. But your…-" Haiel didn't continue as he let his assumptions close until further understanding. "Before I kill you, tell me your name." "Kill me?... alright, my name's Kisel, know that name, it's the last name you're going to remember." Kisel said swinging his Kusarigama around him before aiming it at Haiel. The speed of the weapon was fast enough for the viscount to not find a way to stop it and had to block it. But it turned out to be a fault as the kusarigama only stopped for a moment before Kisel swung the chain and the sickle brought down over the viscount again. Haiel quickly blocked it again but wasn't able to disentangle it and it became a problem. The scythe connected to the chain tugged at the sword and made it difficult for him to move his sword. Kisel smiled but felt a strong tug on his hands as Haiel used his strength to bring out both the chains and the user towards him. "Ahhh" Haiel pulled with great strength. Kisel flung over in the air towards Haiel and saw a slash coming to him. It would have been difficult for anyone to stop an attack like that in mid-air, but Kisel was a master of acrobatics and a slick man. He used the airflows push and chains to brought himself out of the trajectory of the attack before bringing down his right leg at the viscount's head, which was defended. Kisel stepped down the ground and slid far over. Before the viscount could use the same pull and slash tactic again, he removed the scythe from Haiel and caught it. "It seems you have already experienced such a fight before." "Of course, I have." Haiel looked brazenly at Kisel, "You don't come to my age and position just by sitting in a comfy chair." "Oh, but many do. Many of them are right here, at this place, desperately trying to save their lives." Kisel said glancing towards some nobles that didn't know how to fight and ended up getting killed. "Such people do not deserve the money and honor that their forefather's might have painstakingly earned. That's why there are people like me who are here to correct things." "You mean dogs like you that gets paid to listen to their boss's barks." "Be that as it may, you have to at least acknowledge that we're right, viscount." He said playfully, "Tell me how many people over here are as honest as you huh, tell me how many there are that are strong enough to defeat so many of us." Haiel only had one person in his mind that could fit that description, one boy who he had known since he was a child. Kisel saw the direction Haiel glanced at and laughed, "Only one! You can't expect him to save everyone all alon-" Before he could finish, a body flung over and hit the wall beside him, breaking it. Kisel glanced at the body, whose internal problems should be beyond understanding and looked towards where it came from. Haiel too glanced at the place and his body shook in fear, he saw a fat monster slashing off the thugs like they were only grass in front of his sword. The thugs which tried to fight, only got large parts of their bodies cut off. To anyone looking at this scene from a stand point, it was like the grim reaper reaping away lives, especially with that smile on that monster's face. Haiel didn't know who he was or how he could do such inhumane things, but at this moment of crisis, he was willing to shake hands with that devil. "Seems like he wouldn't be alone after all." Kisel snickered angrily hearing that, "You expect that guy… that monster to help. You might be in over your years old man, forget about him helping, he instead might kill him and even your sweet daughter." Haiel couldn't debunk those words as he didn't know Henry personally but he still didn't lose hope. "Who gives a fuck what that kid might do in the future, right now he is killing off many of your henchmen's and making your defeat closer by the second." Kisel's face darkened for a moment before smiling, "Let's see how well he does when he faces my second in command." "FYI, He's even stronger than me." ... I slashed off another body that came to attack me, it was quiet exhausting you know. Not because they were troublesome… okay, some of them were, but the main problem was there were way too many of them. I might have killed many of them and still going 3-6 per half minute, but still their numbers didn't even come to half. There weren't so many in the novel when Arthur fought them. Maybe This is the difference between a story and reality. As I killed off my 99th useless mob, a new person emerged. "Man you guys are almost endless." I said to the new guy who didn't have any weapons on him, "What's your case? Forgot to bring your weapon or something." "Nope, don't need any." He said and then clapped three times and two times rhythmically before murmuring, "Hypnosis State: Paralyze."

I don't know why but the guy smiled, "See, even you weren't able to resist my powers. You might think yourself as the one guy who because he's the mightiest and has the strangest sword, is the strongest." He came right before me and looked me in the eye, "But none of you are resistant to my hypnotic mantra." What the fuck is this guy talking about? He turned around and spoke to the others, "See I didn't had to use any weapons to defeat him." He said but didn't see the silent warnings that he's people were giving him and when he turned back, he only saw the back of my blade and next nothing.
