The Locked System 65 Siege

Mark makes a happy grin and he places the test tube on a pocket on his black robe " Haha, why? is useless now, don't be greedy " Then he makes a serious face " Now if you are here that means that the Homunculus was destroyed, just like Zeran expected, I should leave this place then "

Mark turns to leave and Kara makes a desperate face and then runs against Mark "Give it back!"

Mark puts out four transparent marbles that had smoke inside moving like crazy " Hmph " Mark smirks and crushes the marbles to then throw them in front of Kara

*BANG* *SUISH* When the marbles landed, they released four shadow monsters, surprising Kara

" Stalkers!!! " Kara jumped back and " Graa!! " The four shadows rushed against Kara

" See you later! haha!! " Mark laughs and jumps from roof to the street

" Grr! " Kara grinds her teeth and she begins to fight the four shadow monsters "Graa! " *SWOOSH* a shadow monster yelled and makes a superficial cut in Kara's stomach

" Ack! " Kara retreats back and she covers her fists with her blue fire, she pa.s.ses her fingers on her face and stomach cauterizing the cuts she received

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the center of the city

" Quickly!! evacuated the civilians and sound the alarm!!!! " The captain yelled with a very serious face

" Yes, captain!! " Some of the knights dispersed

" Light Mages!! concentred your attacks on the Stalkers!!! " The captain points at the small shadow monsters that are still coming

" Ok! " The Light mages raised their staff and " Light Arrow " they shoot yellow arrows from their staffs killing a few dozens of Stalkers

Maya kneels beside the black pool of mud then she narrows her eyes and turns to see Hayato with a serious face " Hayato, this guy was a Homunculus! "

" What is that? some kind of clone? " Hayato makes a face of doubt then he turns to see where the partners of Zeran were before but he didn't see anyone of them ' They are gone? but when? '

Maya gets up with a face of concern " Hayato, a Homunculus is a weak replicate of his creator! even so! this one was powerful! the original must be strong and it can be anywhere "

" Watch out! " Alyra yelled after she saw the Shadow Reaper running against them with her big mouth open, crushing the ground where he pa.s.ses

" RAA!!! " The Shadow Reaper jumps towards them

" Tch! " Hayato stretches his left hand ' Chidori Eisō! (Chidori Sharp Spear) ' he cut the monster in half from down to up

" No Hayato! that wouldn't work! " Maya screamed with surprise and the two halves of the Shadow Reaper turned into 2 new Shadow Reapers

" What!? " Hayato makes a surprised face seeing the 2 new Shadow Reapers

" RAA!!! " the Shadow Reapers attack them *BOOM* but they jumped in two different directions before the attack, but now the platform is completely destroyed

" Those things are slow but really powerful! " Hayato makes a serious face as he takes out his katana from his inventory

" They are at the level of an Amateur Earth Warrior! " Maya said while she kicked a couple of Stalkers at her left side

" There are more behind " Hayato covers his katana with his Chidori and cuts 5 Stalkers behind him and Maya, the Stalkers augmented from 5 to 10 Stalkers

Maya and Hayato jumped backward, taking some distance from them then Maya says " Hayato those will multiply too! "

" What?! then who we can kill them!? " Hayato turns to see Maya with a face of doubt

" Wait... " Maya stretches her right hand and " Light Sword! " she creates a yellow sword made by magic then she gives it to Hayato " Those monsters are made by Dark Magic so only Light Magic can kill them, use the light sword to kill them! beware it will disappear in 10 minutes! "

" Ok! " Hayato jumps forward to attack the 10 Stalkers *SWOOSH* *SWOOSH* *SWOOSH* he cuts them from left to right with the Light Sword, the Stalkers turned this time into dust

' The same as that Homunculus, why I didn't receive System Points after killing them? '

[ ' They were made by someone, so they are more like a technique ' ]

' Then this is a coordinated attack, but for what purpose?...wait, that girl from before, it should be because of her, she must be more than a pretty face, that blood, and her blue fire, I have to ask the city lord a few questions after this '

" Hayato more Stalkers are coming! " Maya points at the destroyed benches and there more than a hundred shadow monsters are coming

Hayato starts to speak " I know, someone is creating them maybe they are outside of the city! Alyra, help Wade to get out of here he can't fight well right now! Dye, help the knights to rescue the civilians, Maya you and I will kill these monsters! " then jumps against the 2 Shadow Reapers

" Ok! (x3) " Alyra, Dye, and Maya went in different directions, Alyra went with Wade, Maya attacked the Stalkers that were killing civilians and Dye was helping the Knights and Light Mages with the evacuation

" Ha! " Hayato stabbed the top of the head of the Shadow Reaper but he didn't make so much damage ' d.a.m.n, I can't make enough damage with just one attack, I have attack his weak points '

" RAA!! " Hayato gets down from the Shadow Reaper head and stabs his left eye when he pa.s.sed beside, stopping his fall " RAAA!!! " the Shadow Reaper roars with pain an tries to grab Hayato. Hayato activates his Demoniac transformation, then he grabbed the sword with both hands and *PAM* he jumped using the sword as parting point, evading the big hand and penetrating the eye of Shadow Reaper completely. the Shadow Reaper he falls to the ground to and turns into dust almost instantaneously

" RAA!! " The last Shadow Reaper roars and charges toward Hayato, Hayato grabs the Light Sword from the ground and turns to see the last Shadow Reaper, then throws his katana beside the left side of his head to then use his Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder G.o.d Jutsu)

Hayato activates his Raiton Chakura Mōdo (Lightning Style Armour) at full power and " HA!! " He throws the Light Sword against the Shadow Reaper right eye, the Light Sword penetrated the head of the Shadow Reaper from side to side making it fall and become dust like the other one

" Well done kid!! " The captain yelled with a big smile in his face as he was fighting against a few dozens of Stalkers

The Stalker didn't last long, thanks to the captain strength and his double Light Swords

After he destroyed the Stalkers a knight comes running near him and says with fear " Captain!! there are Undead coming from the east side of the city!! "

" d.a.m.n!! There must be a Necromancer in the cemetery!! send a squad to stop him! " The captain yells with anger

" Yes, sir! " The knight turns around to leave

' Things are getting worst, I will find that Necromancer myself, but first ' Hayato began to make hand seals and " Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Shadow Clone Jutsu) " *PUFF**PUFF**PUFF* 30 clones appeared and they divided into two groups, 25 stayed and 5 went with him to the east side of the city

" Wha..!? " The captain and the city lord were speechless after all the clones appeared and they began to kill the Shadow Reapers like they were nothing, every time that one of the clones swing their Light Swords a stalker becomes dust

' That kid isn't a demon, just who is he? ' The city lord sees the clones with surprise. He created an earth dome where he was protecting the spectators of his tournament

Maya jumps near a clone and asks " Hey, Hayato, where the other clones went? "

The clone turns to see her and says with a calm voice " I'm just a clone, the original and the rest went to the east side of the city searching for a Necromancer "

" I see, then, I will go with him " Maya was about to leave when the clone grabbed her right hand

Maya turns to see the clone and he shakes his head " No, help us to stop the one who is creating these monsters, Alyra is supporting Wade, so you are the only one here that can provide us Light Magic Swords after they disappear "

Maya looks him in surprise and smiles " Ok "

The clones keep killing the Stalkers for 10 minutes until the Stalkers were pushed back to the outside of the destroyed city wall

*SWOOSH* A clone decapitates the last Stalker and says " That was the last one, but where is the one who was creating them? "

Maya was looking from left to right with a serious face " I can't feel it, he might have escaped through the forest "

One of the clones was seeing the forest " d.a.m.n, then we must find him...hmm? " then he makes a surprised face

Maya turns to see him with curiosity " What's wrong? "

The clone makes a serious face and says " I need your help with something "

Maya frowns and asks " With what? "

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few minutes earlier, Hayato was running together with the clones on the way, he encountered a lot of Undead some look very decomposed with his bones exposed and others just look like very pale people

" Gra " " NO! " The Undead were attacking the civilians that were trying to escape, they even suppressed some knights that arrived to help them

' Undead, the necromancer must be nearby ' Hayato turns to see his clones and they nod, after that, the clones jumped from the roof to the streets were the Undead were, Hayato keep running in the direction where the Undead are coming from

*SWOOSH* A clone decapitates one Undead with his katana when he landed " Run, let us these Undead " the knights nod and they helped the civilians the clones begin to fight with the Undead, but the headless Undead was still moving and he embraces the clone " ...!? " the Undead was squeezing the clone with an incredible force immobilizing the clone completely " Ha! " activates his Raiton Chakura Mōdo (Lightning Style Armour) and he opens the Undead arms, separating the arms from the putrid body of the Undead, the Undead kept moving without arms and *SWOOSH* *SWOOSH* The clone cuts the Undead in pieces with the Light Sword this time, but then he saw that the arms he separate from the body of the Undead before were still moving

One clone points at the Undead that was in pieces and says " This thing isn't dead yet even when I used the Light Sword "

Another clone near them says " Is the same for these ones "

A clone arrives near them and asks " How can we stop them? "

" Let's ask Maya, maybe she knows something " *PUFF* The clone disperse and after a few seconds all of them make serious faces

" d.a.m.n, so they are different from the Stalkers, we need to kill the Necromancer to stop them " One clone makes a serious face

" Let's cut them in pieces first, the original can do that " The clones kept destroying the Undead into pieces

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hayato jumped from the roof to roof until he arrived at the cemetery, there, it can be seen a black column surrounded by Undead and some Stalkers, inside the black column a black-robed figure was standing still

Hayato activates his Sharingan and he makes a surprised face ' I can't see his energy at all, it's because of that black column? '

Hayato activates his Demoniac Transformation and Raiton Chakura Mōdo (Lightning Style Armour) and he rushes against them, when he pa.s.sed he sees all the graves open, they were a lot of them ' The rain made the earth softer, that way the Undead were able to leave their graves more easily, these guys took the weather in consideration? '

*ZOOM* *SWOOSH* Hayato pa.s.s in the middle of the circle made by Stalkers and Undead like a flash, cutting the Undead in two with his Katana and turning the Stalkers into dust with the Light Sword, the Light Sword disappeared after that attack, then he kicked the black-robed figure making him fall

Then Hayato makes a surprised face seeing the unconscious robed figure ' This is the stupid proud Knight from the entrance, he was with them? I will take him with me ' When Hayato removed the Knight from the black column the Undead stop moving ' Then he was the Necromancer, hmm? it seems that the Stalkers are gone too, but who the h.e.l.l was his creator? ' Hayato left the place with the knight in his shoulder

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outside of the city, a beautiful woman was running with a very tired and sad face, this beautiful woman was Kara, she now has various scars on her face and stomach all of them cauterized

' No... I lost some of my blood... Mother, I'm sorry but I think it's just a matter of time now until they came searching for more than that... if that happens I.... ' Kara was crying when she disappeared inside the forest

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On another forest, things were completely different

" What took you so long, Mark? " Said Leon with a small grin

Mark raises his shoulders and said with a big smile " Well, I wanted to talk with a beauty just before we leave "

Liam shakes his head and asks with a smile " Hmph, then you have it? "

" Of course I do, who you think I am? " Mark has a proud smile as he takes out the test tube from his robe

Leon laughed mockingly " Haha, well-done, idiot " then he makes a serious face " But I never thought that we have to use the plan C for this task "

Mark grins and says " Either way, things went smoothly, even in plan C, don't you think? "

" I guess, we are still here, but the Homunculus was destroyed, right? I doubt it was thanks to that beauty " Leon makes a face of doubt and asked

Mark makes a mockingly grin and says " Don't ask me, I was the first one to leave as part of the plan "

Liam smiles and says " Maybe Zeran knows, let's go, we have to give him the blood " the three young men leave through the forest
