Mashyuu in: Demon Seige! Grab the Oni Gauntlet.

Job Details:

Crescent Isle, a beautiful land that Mashyuu had been on for a few weeks after dealing with a massive Dragon who attacked the Sabertooth Guild. Together with the rest of Sabertooth and some guys from Infinity Hydra the guilds did battle to survive a horrific battle. Afterwords Mashyuu was awarded the title of Ace and travled to Crescent isle to celebrate and relax.

His magical armored boots crunched down on the ground as he walked towards a small kingdom. A wide smile was spread over his face as the wind blew his spiked brown hair and his brown one sleeved jacket hard. His blue jeans were covered in dirt but it didn't bother the Earth Wizard at all. Off in the distance he could see with his slited blue eyes a grand castle of sandstone. He had been staying there for the past few days and it had become a home away from home for the Dragon Slayer of Earth.

The young man's foot fell once and went still, the golden ring on his finger whispered a warning. Something dark approaches... Instantly Mashyuu was on high alert when out of the sky itself hideous looking demons sprang into action and attacked the Earth Wizard. Mashyuu reached his arm back and spun around. Golden electricity crackling from his fingertips.

Mashyuu extended his hand and golden electricity lanced forward and smashed into a Demon clearly doing something to the creature but not enough to actually do a ton of damage to the monster. There were ten of them and Mashyuu was by himself. He didn't know what to do or say. Rocky was back at the Sabertooth guild hall after nearly being killed, leaving Mashyuu in a bad way. Suddenly all ten of the monsters swarmed Mashyuu, lifting him high into the sky and dive bombing him into the ground....

WC: 309

The ground opened up as Mashyuu hit it and for the first time the earth betrayed the Earth Wizard. Swiftly the monsters flew away from Mashyuu and cackled around the Earth Wizard. He laid still, bones broken and blood pouring out of his mouth while his eyes flickered open and shut. He gasped for air and tried to push himself up but the bones in his arms were shattered and gave out under his own weight. Again Mashyuu fell to the floor and watched as the creatures started to head for the city, attacking the walls and those who were outside. Mashyuu felt his eyes shut and then... Darkness. In his mind the Slayer could hear the dark spirits of his soul laughing manically at the fallen Wizard but soon even those creatures in his soul went silent. Mashyuu was dead...

In a world of darkness. In a world of Darkness Mashyuu swam no body, no sense of direction or feeling. Then he saw it, a bright light at the end of the tunnel. Something he didn't think he would see with all the violence he brought upon the world. Perhaps this meant that the things he did in life added up to something greater.

Mashyuu felt his soul materialize into what his body looked like as he found himself standing on a platform of white Marble. Mashyuu gazed around at the figures, all of them looked insane to the Earth Wizard but he kept his mouth shut. If this is what angels looked like then he wasn't about to judge. Easily Mashyuu noticed the creatures all had an arm wrapped in white cloth, and held a different weapon that seemed to crackle with some strange sort of elemental energy. The Earth Slayer felt a slight sense of fear run through his body but he remained silent while the creatures looked on at him. After what felt like an hour or so Mashyuu swallowed hard and spoke up. "So is anyone going to tell me why I'm here? Or are we going to hang out for the rest of time?"

WC: 351

Mashyuu's brazen attitude took the creatures aback and they all started to whisper among each other for an extended period. Finally the room went silent again and one of the creatures in a tall hood stepped forward and spoke in a loud booming voice. "We are the Oni. A group who were all slain by the creatures that have attacked you. Together we have saved your life and are willing to give you a tool to defeat these creatures. Know that while your magic will indeed work on the creatures it won't be nearly as effective. We can only heal your wounds like this once so be careful. In order to truly defeat these foes you will need to use the Oni Gauntlet and slot three demonic elemental orbs into it in order to wield the various weapons. Just know that you can only use three of the orbs in total so be careful about what you slot for they can never be changed. Now Extend your hand."

Mashyuu took everything in and shrugged his shoulders. If Rocky was there then he was sure the animal would have whimpered at him. In fact the Earth Wizard could almost hear it at that very moment. Mashyuu slipped off his Dragon Slayer gloves and extended his right palm. A searing pain ripped through him, burning at his flesh and causing the muscle to ache with a terrible pain. Mashyuu screamed and fell to his knees, holding his arm until the pain subsided and cooled on his arm. He glared up at the creatures then back to his arm. "...This will help me save those people?" He asked. The creatures nodded up and down and waved their hands in an arc in front of them. A moment later there was a flash of light and the world vanished. Once again Mashyuu was in a black void.

WC: 315

For a moment Mashyuu swam in darkness again then suddenly his sharp blue eyes shot open wide and he rolled to his back as if he was never harmed at all. He sat bolt upright and without a second thought he looked at his right arm. The sleeve on his mothers jacket was still missing but it didn't look like anything was wrong. He quirked a brow and reached into his jacket pockets, pulling out the slayer gloves and strapping the fingerless garments to his hands. Carefully he picked himself up off the ground and dusted himself off. "What a strange dream.... still I need to find those things... Take care of them before anyone gets hurt." Mashyuu thought out loud to himself. The Earth Wizard turned his body to look at the small village ahead and his blue eyes went wide with sorrow and terror, the city was burning to the ground. "Mashyuu! I have been trying to wake you for hours. I thought you were dead. Those creatures burned down the village and are making their way to the castle we have to do something to help!" The ring on Mashyuu's finger shouted. He snarled and worked the fingers in his right hand into a fist when that burning pain surged back for a moment. From his flesh sprouted a synthetic metal that flexed with his movements and covered his right arm. Mashyuu did have the Gauntlet of Oni. "Bitching..." Mashyuu muttered to himself and sprinted ahead to the village.

The magic on his black leather boots rocketed Mashyuu forward at break neck speeds when combined with his Slayer blood's natural strength increase. Before he knew what was happening he was standing inside the village with the sun setting behind the castle. Fires were crackling all over the place, the sounds of screams filled the air around Mashyuu while his eyes darted to the horror of lives lost all around. "Gotta be somebody left....Right?"

'Monster Dice' :

Mashyuu wanted to say something, to call out to help others. Then there was a loud boom that seemed to crack the sky as if it were a bowl. From a fracture in the air a massive Demon peeked out and jumped to land before Mashyuu with a snarl on it's face. It's curved horns looked like it should have weighed the creature down and make it fall forward but the monster was powerful enough to stay upright and fine. The Earth Slayer swallowed hard and took a half step back. He narrowed his blue eyes while the creature extended it's finger and pointed at Mashyuu. The demons in Mashyuu gasped and all at once Mashyuu could feel the demons inside him bowing in respect. They knew it was a king of hell, ruler of the underworld...

"Oni Gantlet....I want it." The creature whispered and it's fingertip glinted and Mashyuu jumped to the left as hard as he could. A beam streaked across the sky, ripping through the air where Mashyuu was standing. He could see the heat of the beam ripping through the air and bending it. "Oh crap.... This is bad." Mashyuu whispered under his breath and prepared himself for battle.

The Earth Dragon Slayer rushed forward and swung his left leg out at the monster's ribs. The blow connected but he wasn't even sure if it had done anything. Mashyuu brought his leg down and looked at the monster for a moment. It lashed out, it's clawed hand ripping faster than Mashyuu could actually see at first. The Earth Wizard was struck in the face and sent sailing through the air, twisting around and splattering on the ground and came to a sudden halt in shocked pain. He groaned and blinked the pain away from his body. Slowly he shook his head and stood up on shaky legs. "Hey... I need you to keep an eye on this guy. He's too fast for me to deal with alone. Come on lets do this." Mashyuu muttered.

Mashyuu started to run at the monster again but the Demon king was already in Mashyuu's face. The Earth Wizard felt the warning surge through him and he ducked down swiftly, narrowly avoiding a slash at his head then Mashyuu rolled forward and saw the Demon's horns sitting where Mashyuu had been standing. He sprang up on his feet, twisting around in the air and slammed his right fist as hard as he could into the back of the neck of the monster. It staggered forward and clutched at its neck while snarling. Mashyuu couldn't help but smile, he and his ring were working together to fight the monster. Swiftly Mashyuu went into a back hand spring as the monsters tail slashed through Mashyuu's shirt and left a red streak of blood over his chest. It would leave a scar to be sure.

The Earth Slayer landed on his feet and pulled his right arm back, letting it crackle with golden electricity. He pushed his palm forward and let electricity lance out to slam into the demon king. The monster smirked at the Earth Wizard, feeling no pain from Mashyuu's strike. The young man swallowed hard and shook his hand to make sure that he indeed launched a bolt of electricity. "Right then, a bare knuckle fight it is." Mashyuu said and went back in for the hand to hand combat. The two men started in on each other, one made of darkness, the other fighting to save what he could of the village, burning around him. Mashyuu ducked a heavy punch and drove a knee as hard as he could into the Demon King's groin. The Blow was powerful but slow, still enough of a strike to truly do some damage to the monster. Sadly it wasn't enough for Mashyuu to fell the creature. "Damn it what's it going to take to bring you down!?"

Demon HP:

WC: 318

Mashyuu knew he had to do something special in order to beat this thing but he wasn't really sure where to start. He could have tried to buff himself somehow but what would that have done? He had no clue. The Monster charged Mashyuu, causing the ring on his finger to throb in warning. He took a sharp breath and called up a spell from memory. "Earth Dragon's scales!" His body hardened and scales rose up out of his flesh, carefully he twisted around and let the monsters claws gently glaze over his body. Mashyuu ended his bodies twist with a rising uppercut, slamming his open palm into the demon king's jaw as hard as he could. The Oni Gauntlet smashing into the demon's face and caused the monsters teeth to clatter and eyes grow wide. Mashyuu's left arm shot back and his eyes went completely black for a swift moment. "Damn it.. Get out here. SIN!" Mashyuu let the darkness in his soul take shape and conjured a large snake like shadow creature that had wicked teeth and blood red, glowing eyes. "Master, allow me to help you." Sin coiled back and it's jaw unhinged before it snapped out and latched onto the side of the Demon King's rib cage. The Creature recoiled in sheer pain while Mashyuu slowly started to heal due to his link with the creature known as Sin. Mashyuu ducked down then flipped over the creature, grabbing the monsters head and dropping down backwards, cracking the Demon Kings skull on the ground. What Mashyuu thought was blood leaked all over the hard concrete ground. The Demon King howled in furious pain while it shot up and it's wings spread out and it launched itself high into the air. It dragged Sin with it and grabbed the smoke monster by the face and ripped it off of the Demon Kings ribs. It tensed it's arm and hurled Sin down fifty feet straight into the ground. The red eyed Demon then put it's attention on Mashyuu and pointed it's index Finger down at the Earth Wizard. The creature let lose a beam of super heated magical energy that slammed into Mashyuu's chest and ripped through his body. Mashyuu fell to his knees and started to gasp for air while looking at what should have been a hole in his chest. But the spell the Demon King used seemed to have harmed Mashyuu's soul.

Demon HP:

WC: 409

Quaking terror. That was how Mashyuu described the feeling deep in his soul. How could he defeat such a creature? He couldn't. But he had to try. Mashyuu had to do something to help anyone that was still alive in this village. And to think, there were those out there that wanted to kill Mashyuu to summon something even more powerful than what he faced now. All of the world was silent to the Earth Wizard for a moment until a terrible pinch on his right ring finger brought him out of his haze. Mashyuu looked up and jumped to the right, avoiding another one of the Demon King's horrid blasts. Slitted blue eyes narrowed and Mashyuu placed his palm to the ground. "Earth Dragon's Stone Pillars!" He shouted out. Right under him a set of four stone pillars launched up one under the other and so on. The force of the stone towers coming up from underground launched Mashyuu high into the air and right at the Demon King. Mashyuu's right hand, covered in the Oni Gauntlet clenched into a balled up fist as he soared at a high speed. The Demon King flapped his wings twice, powerful bursts of air keeping it afloat before it rocketed down to meet Mashyuu head on. The Earth Wizard screamed with rage and drove his fist straight into the Demon's glowing eye, as hard as the Slayer possibly could. The resounding thwack could be heard as it echoed across the sky. Mashyuu's ring alerted him to the fact that the shadow creature Sin had snaked it's way up the pillar and was right behind the Earth Slayer. Mashyuu changed into a bolt of electricity and shot straight up into the sky, high above even the Demon King. At the same time as the Demon recovered Sin latched onto it's neck, drawing a thick amount of blood. The monster started to gag and drown in pain while it struggled to keep itself flying with a massive Snake bringing an enormous amount of weight down upon the Demon King. The Demon King started shaking, trying to pry the monster off it's neck without ripping out a major organ until Mashyuu dropped down on the creature, knees driving straight into the beasts back while his left hand grasped the Demon's curved horn. Mashyuu's right hand came up and slammed once, twice, three times into the crown of the Demon's skull. The Demon King started to fall rapidly but his wings stayed open, allowing for him to glide until Mashyuu lashed out with a leg and kicked the bone of one in with a sharp snapping sound. The Demon howled in pain and started to spiral while Sin smacked the King across the bloody face with his tail. Again Mashyuu smashed the Demon as hard as he could in the top of the head. Mashyuu then released the Demon King as did Sin, both rolling to the ground with small cuts but only light wounds that had no real effect on either of them. However the Demon King smashed hard into a near by stone building and drove right through the brick and wood. "Think we got em?" Mashyuu asked while looking down at Sin as it coiled up next to Mashyuu. "I would suggest calling for help, just in case Master. The Dark One and Hell Brood would at least help to draw the creatures fire."

Demon HP:

WC: 574

At the suggestion of Sin, Mashyuu Unleashed not only The Dark One but the Hell Brood. Both had skills far beyond what Mashyuu was capable of alone. The Earth Wizard dropped to a knee, the result of the monsters all being out draining the Wizard of his mental focus. He took a deep breath of air and looked up as the Dark One twisted it's small neck to glare at Mashyuu. The Earth Wizard gave the creature a strange look until it twisted around and kicked Mashyuu straight in the chest. Mashyuu sprawled back while letting his eyes dart between all the creatures that were glaring at him. That was until the building that the Demon Lord crashed into Exploded.

All the creatures turned to see the Demon Lord standing with pure rage on his now bloody face. "I have had it with you human.... And your strange little creatures that look like Demons but are only shadowed fakes." Mashyuu pulled himself up while Sin called out. "Stay back Mashyuu. Take the Demon." The three Shadowed monsters rushed the Demon Lord as fast as they could. Hell Brood lead the charge, opening his mouth and unleashing a dark wave of arcane energy at the Demon. The blast enveloped the Demon with smoke but caused no problem for the Demon as it simply batted it's wings and blew the smoke away. By the time the smoke was cleared the Dark One was slashing at the Demon with his bare hands, it's claws sharpened by the effect of having more allies from the Shadow Realm. The slash ripped right across the Demon's chest, leaving a deep wound. Before the Demon Lord could counter, the Dark One vanished in a puff of smoke and appeared behind him on all fours in time for both Sin and the Hell Brood to slam straight into the Demon as hard as they could.

The Demon Lord fell over the Dark One, crashing into the rubble of the building while the Dark One laughed manically and drove it's talons straight into the Demons groin. The trio, working as a solid unit all broke off and regrouped along a one story building. The Demon Lord picked himself up while Mashyuu charged forward as fast as he could. The Earth Wizard shouted out while swinging his fist up. "Earth Dragons Wisdom!" His body lit up a dull brown and his speed and strength increased even further. His fist drove right into the Demon's neck, cutting off air from the crushed throat.

At the sudden warning of the ring Mashyuu broke away in a kart wheel that allowed him to avoid a rapid stab from the broken bone of the Demon Lord's wing. The Creature inhaled a deep breath and fired a blast from it's mouth. "Earth Demon's Roar!" Mashyuu's eyes lit up with glee and he opened his mouth, allowing for it to seemingly unhinge as he inhaled the magical breath of summoned stones. He ended his cart wheel with a flourish, feeling his magical power surge through his body yet again. Was it Dragon Force? No, after accessing the Dragon's Wisdom he couldn't use Dragon Force for a long while. But it was extra energy. The Earth Slayer bit his bottom lip and called out. "Lets finish this guy Shadows!" The various creatures Mashyuu summoned up all rallied by their master and lent him their skills and strength. Soon Mashyuu was leaking fog like Sin, growing long talons like the Dark One and wings from his back like the Hell Brood. Together the four charged while the Demon Lord cracked his cut and dented neck and charged as well.

Mashyuu and the Demon met first, the ring on his finger being the best weapon he could have had when fighting something he could barely keep track of, warning The Earth Slayer of incoming attack after attack. The pair of fighters rolled about, jumping, flipping and striking at each other faster than the human eye could see. All of this was of course to distract the Demon King of Sin and the others. Suddenly Mashyuu vanished in a puff of shadowy smoke and appeared above the Demon Lord while Sin took Mashyuu's place, it's wicked teeth gripping at the Demon's ankle, rippling flesh from bone. Suddenly the Dark One came in from above, riding Hell Brood's back and the pair let lose a set of slashes at the Demon's shoulders, each leaving a horrid gash. To cap off the flurry Mashyuu clasped both fists together and came down in a spinning smash. His two hands balled up for extra weight dented into the Demon Lords head, causing his eyes to roll backwards while his body locked up and blood ran from his eyes.

#4 'Monster Dice' :

Mashyuu was about to raise his arm to try and finish off the Demon King when an explosion went off to his left. The blow struck the Dark One, causing it to vanish on the spot just as Sin's time was up and it returned to Mashyuu's body. Mashyuu, it's time to regroup and try something different an all out brawl isn't going to get this job done. The spirit in the ring called out to Mashyuu.

Recoiling from the explosion Mashyuu started to swear under his breath while looking up to a near by roof. The Hell Brood screeched and grabbed the Earth using Wizard by the shoulders and flew him up to the roof of the building Mashyuu had been looking at while the the undead archers unleashed a small volley of arrows, each exploding in the sky near by the Earth Wizard, rocking him hard. The Hell Brood dropped Mashyuu down and launched a blast of Dark Matter at the Skeleton's dealing some sort of damage, witch was more than it's attacks could deal against the Demon King.

Mashyuu hit the roof and took off as fast as he could, running while the Demon Lord was helped up by the demonic soldier that came to it's masters side. The Slayer in Mashyuu wanted to turn back and beat the glowing white marks off the King of Demons, while the ring on his finger urged the young brown haired man to regroup and try to recover some magical energy. The good news is that we learned only the Demon Lord seems immune to magic. Plus that gauntlet on your arm can actually do real harm to the creature. We should try dropping a building on it.

Twisting into a jump Mashyuu went into a free fall off the edge of the three story building he was atop and came down on the side of the building across from him. The Slayer slid down the wall and whipped around the corner of the building. "Yeah well you haven't taught me how to use a roar yet and I don't know if I can bring down an entire building yet.... Oh." Mashyuu focused on the corner he had just rounded and the ground next to it, a long spike shot up into the edge of the building and exploded just as the Demon King started to fly at Mashyuu, dropping the building atop the Demon and burying him in rubble.

Demon HP:

WC: 413

Mashyuu was starting to feel drained from all the action that had taken place, even dropping buildings on these demons wasn't enough to actually harm them the way Mashyuu needed to do. He licked his dry lips while running through the stone and wooden village. The brown haired Wizard had no idea if he could actually take these things down and now it seemed he had gotten in way over his head.

Lightly armored boots swiftly carried the Wizard across the streets until a demonic Soldier in solid armor stepped in front of the Wizard. It's dark grey fleshy head looked up at the Wizard and grinned ear to pointed black ear. The slayer skidded to a stop and wished he had some sort of magical hammer. He wanted to buy one but opted for a spell instead. The soldier flipped and whirled a blade around in his hand and grasped it with both hands, holding it high by his face before charging the Wizard.

Mashyuu dropped back a pace, just barely avoiding a blow that would have cleaved him and his armored jacket in half with a single strike. Mashyuu swallowed hard and grinned, mostly out of fear. The Demon King wasn't capable of being harmed by spells so Mashyuu wondered if he could harm this thing with his magic. He felt a dark lump swell in his throat while he pointed at the ground and a stone floated to his finger tip. The Earth Wizard started to jump back with skipping steps. Each step carried the Wizard a good distance away as he aimed the small stone at the monster. "Rock Bullet!" He shouted. The stone shot out faster than the Slayer could have imagined and cracked against the Demon's eye, causing it to bleed but the demon simply grinned. At least there was blood though... "I think my fist hits harder at this point.... It was worth a shot right?

Demon HP:

WC: 325

The Demon soldier let his clawed feet clutch into the hard ground and it took off faster than Mashyuu thought it would. It was hardly slower than the Demon King. Mashyuu back peddled a few steps and watched as the blade of the Demon drew a small line across Mashyuu's neck. He was relieved to see his head was still on his head and shoulders. The Earth Slayer focused on his arm for a moment, allowing the Oni Gauntlet to conjure itself up on the Slayers arm. He took a breath and lunged at the Demon Soldier to meet it in combat.

Mashyuu's fist slammed into the jaw of the Demon, as he danced around the monsters blade. He was sure that he had dodged the blade but suddenly a foot slammed into Mashyuu's back, causing bones to bend and creak while his eyes rolled into the back of his head. He needed a few moments to just sit back and recover. He felt like he was fighting at about half power at this point and that was not a good sign. Mashyuu spun around as the Demon charged again. The Slayers closed back fist slammed into the Demon's neck, the force of the blow swatted the Demon aside like a fly, causing it to bounce of the ground and roll to it's feet in a three point stance. "Why are you here? What's the end game?" Mashyuu demanded while looking over his shoulder for the Demon Lord and the undead archers. Mashyuu, finish the battle now, we can't stay here long. Just in case the monsters come back.

Grinning sarcastically the Slayer pulled his arm back, letting it crackle with electricity before throwing it forward. An arch of golden electricity slammed into the Demon, blowing it back and causing the monster to slide along the ground hard.

Demon HP:

WC: 310

Mashyuu snarled at the demon, his Draconic nature showing through to the end. He inhaled and tried to release a roar that never came. One day it would and the spell would be grand. Mashyuu looked on at the Demon as it lifted the blade high in the air and it ignited into some sort of dark fire. "We are here for human souls and that arm of yours!" It shouted. Mashyuu rolled his eyes. Well at least these ones weren't trying to sacrifice him to summon a stronger Demon. The Two circled each other for a few paces and the Wizard decided to simply make the first move. He rushed and bunny hoped up while the Demon tried to cut Mashyuu's legs out from under him. The Wizard landed again and unleashed a series of small but fast strikes into the Demon's chest.

Each fist Mashyuu slammed caused a light grunt to spill out of the Demon as his armor dented into his chest. Mashyuu used his Dragon Slayers speed to make his strikes flow like water crashing against the tide. He ended the series of strikes with a headbutt straight into the Demon's head as hard as he could. He wasn't sure if the blows really did anything but the Demon simply stood there and took the blows as if daring Mashyuu to do any real harm. Mashyuu grew annoyed with the Creature and brought both his arms up. Suddenly the ground opened up and swallowed the monster whole. "Well that won't buy much time. I need to run." Mashyuu muttered under his breath and pushed his body as fast as he could to get out of the street. Buildings seemed to fly by while the Wizard ran. Suddenly the ring on his finger told Mashyuu to duck. Just as the Slayer did so a set of three arrows whipped by his head and stuck into the ground next to Mashyuu. "Neh... Thanks for the warning."

Demon HP:

WC: 330

Yes, your welcome. Now lets say you take out the archers behind you before it's too late and we have to fight a demon lord and his friend shows up. I think those ones are going to be easier to take down. Mashyuu had to agree but using magic was starting to take it's toll on the Wizard and he didn't know if he could keep mustering it up without eating a lot of dirt. Still it would be easier to take out a few undead then it would to bring down a group of Demons. At least it seemed that way.

Mashyuu twisted on his heels and let his blue eyes bounce between the three archers as they took aim at him. If Mashyuu charged in a straight line and zigged at the last moment then he could buy some time before they could notch another arrow. Mashyuu charged, the archers fired and the Slayer zipped to the left while moving forward. The arrows hit the ground and blew up, chunks of stone hit the back of Mashyuu but he never wavered. The Wizard pulled his right arm back and slammed it into the throat of one archer, while his left hand grasped an arrow in the quiver of the archer. The Slayer spun his leg out and tripped another archer, causing his foe to fall down on the ground hard.

The Earth Slayer wanted to take down at least one and grab his bow and arrow quiver if he could blow an entire quiver later it would really do some damage, he was sure of it. Hell if he could get two quivers he could even set a trap if he were lucky. "Earth Dragon's Blasting Stomp!" He called out and stomped the ground. All around him stones came up, smacking into all the archers then shot forward, driving them backwards with intense force.

Demon HP:

WC: 318

The casting of the spell rocked Mashyuu to the core. He wanted to fall to the ground but he managed to stay up. However the undead here weren't nearly as uneffected by Mashyuu's magic as the Demons were. He thanked whatever god there was that was watching out for him and the ring on his finger for boosting his Dragon Slayers Earth Magic. The Archers all lashed out at the same time with their bows, trying to harm mashyuu but the Slayer was able to duck down and avoid the clubbing strikes of the Archers with ease. These ones weren't nearly as skilled as Mashyuu was in melee combat.

Mashyuu came up and drove his elbow into the jaw of one Archer while kicking out with his boot at the same time into another Archers chest as they all spread out to try and gain some distance on the Wizard. The Wizard took note of this and tackled one of the Archers to the ground while the other two drew arrows. Mashyuu rolled to his back, still holding the archer and kicked as hard as his body would allow. The force of the blow sent the Archer in Mashyuu's grasp up into the air and towards the two other archers as their arrows flew through the air. Mashyuu smiled wide as the arrows stuck into the undead creature and exploded, blowing the monster apart. Still in Mashyuu's hand was a quiver with ten arrows and the slayer couldn't help but grin at his success.

"Well, this has been fun guys but unless you want to keep blowing each other up." Mashyuu stated while standing up and slipping the quiver over his shoulder. Mashyuu threw his right hand forward and let a bolt of gold electricity slam into a zombies chest.

Demon HP:

WC: 301

Mashyuu scooped up a bow and closed the gap between the archers and himself. He didn't want to blow them up, instead opting for their quivers if at all possible. The blasts were strong and would for sure help against the two Demons. Hell if he could take one out with the blasts then the other would be that much more manageable in the long term. Maybe Mashyuu could even hide from one and try to recover a bit. But he was sure he only had a few short moments before the Demons would catch up with the Slayer.

An Oni Gauntlet covered fist slammed straight into the face of one of the undead, causing part of it's face to cave in and it to drop its bow from sheer pain. Mashyuu was surprised. The last time he fought undead they didn't seem to feel that sensation. The Dragon Slayer let his eyes glance between the two targets for a moment while he focused on his arms for a moment. Dirt and stone started to rise up and formed into a large hammer in his hands, Mashyuu was nearly tapped but the magic of his Earth Dragon's Hammer would ring true.

Mashyuu lashed out with his weapon, slamming the blunt end into the chest of the zombie he had just struck in the face, the war hammer bounced backwards while Mashyuu twisted with the swing, letting the hammer slam against the skull of the other zombie. Swiftly Mashyuu took a step back while the zombies scrambled to adjust their tactics but their simple brains wouldn't allow them to do so fast enough.

The War Hammer Mashyuu held slammed into the same skull again, and before the hammer came back all the way, the hilt of the weapon smashed in the zombies face, ripping the skull in half with one swift strike.

Demon HP:

WC: 311

The zombie with a crushed skull fell to the ground in a heap at Mashyuu's feet as the Slayer twisted and drove his boot hard into the last Zombie's chest, knocking it back a pace. The Wizard raised his hammer and drove it down into the Zombie's shoulder hard. The Slayer jumped up and drove his knee into the ribs of the Zombie, staggering it to the side while Mashyuu's hammer came off the shoulder of the Zombie and the heaviest end of the hammer was suddenly driven up into the jaw of the Zombie, ripping the front of it's head off. Mashyuu watched as the Zombie fell to the ground and his hammer fell apart to dirt.

Swiftly Mashyuu scooped up the other arrows and took off into a small one story building. Mashyuu placed his back to a stone wall and counted the arrows that were now all in his quiver. Ten from the first zombie, five from the second and seven from the last... twenty two in total but would it be enough? Mashyuu wasn't sure. What he was sure was that there were only two foes left and both packed a wallop of a punch. Mashyuu was low on Magical energy and was bleeding out from multiple wounds on his body. He gently touched the ground and sapped strength from it, healing wounds thanks to his connection with the earth itself.

If Mashyuu got to pick he would have used the arrows to try and catch both the Demons in the bast radius but they would be smarter than that and Mashyuu wasn't used to using bows as it was. He would have to hit these things with swift sneak attacks and hope for the best. With any luck he could finish what he started with the Demon Lord and really break a wing, keeping the beast from flying.

Mashyuu took a few moments to simply recover from some of his injuries. His headlong attitude got him into some real trouble, the Slayer need to stop himself and take a step back to figure out where to go from here. There was no doubt that the Wizard would have to use the bow and arrows but he was also sure that his foes would be swift to try and break the bow. The Wizard poked his head out of the doorway of the small building he was in and watched out for the bows and demons. The black bows of bone rested on the ground of rubble but it was silent and Mashyuu didn't like that in the slightest bit. He had made far to much noise for the Demons to have not heard the Wizard and the attacks he made. The brown haired Wizard looked up and his sharp blue eyes darted around to see if anyone was around. Nothing...

Swiftly as he poked his head out of the doorway he sank back into the darkness of the building and softly shut the door behind him. "You don't think they left do you? I mean it would be nice but I feel like they are out looking for me." Mashyuu both asked and said to his golden ring. The Wizard paced around a small table and started to search for anything he could use to help fight these things off. Nothing... But there was a ladder that went to a trap door on the roof. Mashyuu slung the bow over his shoulder and climbed the latter, carefully opening the door and climbing atop the roof. Off in the distance he could see the Demon Lord flying, getting closer and closer. Mashyuu's sharp eyes narrowed while he pulled the bow off his shoulder and drew an arrow from the quiver on his back. Notching the arrow Mashyuu pulled the bowstring back and took a deep breath while taking aim. He had one shot before he needed to vanish back into the building. Hit and run tactics might get Mashyuu far for now. He aimed high and released the arrow. It swam through the sky, soaring until Mashyuu couldn't see it anymore. Suddenly an explosion enveloped the Demon Lord and Mashyuu scrambled back down the ladder, shutting the trap door behind him.

Mashyuu dropped down into the house again with a soft thud, one hand holding the bow up while the other rested on the ground. If he was smart Mashyuu could throw himself around with his bolts of electricity every so often to help make a speedy escape. If he was sloppy then another fist fight would occur and the Slayer wasn't sure if he could actually beat the two. He needed to make sure that the demons didn't know where he was or what he was still capable of. At least the arrows explosion looked like it did some real harm for once. You should have fired more than one arrow, the smoke of the explosion would have masked the other arrow shots. Mashyuu's ring scolded the Slayer.

Carefully Mashyuu pulled himself up and stalked over to the doorway of the small house and started to stack things like tables and furniture in front of it, in an attempt to block the doorway. The dark haired Slayer thought that if the Demon could figure out where Mashyuu was it would come through the door but if it was blocked the Demon might come from the top of the doorway and the Wizard could launch a set of arrows through to surprise the Demon Lord.

Mashyuu posted up under the doorway and pulled back another arrow, waiting for a shot to take. He listened, intent on figuring out where the Demons would come from, if anywhere. There was a long silence, Mashyuu couldn't even hear the wind outside for a few moments. Suddenly a thud rocked the top of the building, dust fell from above and speckled Mashyuu's face for a moment. "Come on you son of a bitch..." The Earth Slayer whispered as the door started to creak open and light shined through.

The door started to open and that's when it hit Mashyuu, how was he supposed to get out if the door was blocked off from both sides. "Shit. Better make this count." He muttered to himself. The moment the door opened up and a shadow appeared Mashyuu let loose his arrow, watching it slam into the chest of the Demon Lord and explode. Mashyuu smiled at his handy work while drawing a second arrow. But smoke moved faster than Mashyuu expected and the Demon Lord was standing at Mashyuu's side. The Slayer went wide eyed and started to choke as the Demon reached out and grabbed the Earth Wizard by the throat and spun around only to toss Mashyuu through the door and the barricade hard.

Mashyuu went sailing out of the home, dropping an arrow but keeping a death grip on the bow itself. He skidded and rolled to a stop on the dirty street, surrounded by small burning huts. The Earth Wizard stood up while pulling another arrow and notching the projectile to the bowstring. The Demon Lord stepped from the broken doorway and grinned ear to ear at Mashyuu. It pointed it's clawed finger and the moment it did Mashyuu let the arrow fly. His finger let loose a powerful spell and blew the arrow up, just moments before it would have hit the Demon. Still some damage got through as when the smoke cleared the Demon had some cuts on his body. "Aren't you growing bored of this Mashyuu? Yes I know who you are. No I'm not impressed. But those arrows are already proving to be annoying. I don't think I'm going to let you hit me with another. I'll just kill you now. Since I'm so hurt that we should have a fair fight."

Mashyuu swallowed hard, this Demon knew who he was and worse was taunting him. Boldly the Demon strode forward and a long blade materialized in it's massive left hand. Easily it whipped the blade around, slicing the air and raising the blade to aim at Mashyuu. The Earth Wizard took a half step back and slipped the bow over his chest and arm, readying himself for an attack. Mashyuu felt that familiar feeling of fear creeping up on himself again but he wasn't about to truly show the Demon Lord that.

The Earth Slayer rocketed forward, his armored boots carrying him faster than he could have possibly moved without them. Mashyuu skidded to a stop and rocketed himself to the right, avoiding a chopping slash from the long silver blade. Mashyuu's foot slammed into the Demon's hip, the speed of his magical boot helping to make the kick hit harder. Mashyuu's palm placed to the ground and he rocketed forward as the Demon swang it's weapon, barely cutting a strand of thick brown hair off of Mashyuu's head. The Wizard bent his knee and jumped up, swang his leg back and flipped, driving his foot into the top of the Demon King's shoulder.

Mashyuu landed on his shoulders and the Demon lifted the man up by the foot and drove a hard fist into Mashyuu's face before tossing the Wizard around like a rag doll. Mashyuu flew through the air and slammed into a tall pole made of wood before sliding to the ground and laying still...

For a moment Mashyuu didn't move but listened for a moment. He could hear the creature starting to walk towards him and Mashyuu grabbed an arrow from his quiver. Mashyuu flipped up on the haunches of his legs and hurled the arrow like a spear at the Demon. The monster grasped the arrow in his palm by the shaft and snapped it between his fingers. "Balls." Mashyuu swore under his breath and readied himself for another round.

Mashyuu waited as the monster with massive horns started to stride out towards the Earth Slayer. When he got into range to attack with his sword Mashyuu thew up a stone wall under the Demon and caused the monster to fall backwards as the wall took his legs out from under him. The Earth Wizard rushed around the wall and dropped his elbow down straight into the Demon's neck as hard as he could with his gauntlet covered arm.

The Demon choked for a moment while he found his back pressed to the ground. Mashyuu lifted his leg and dropped a booted foot down on the Demon Lords face. The crunch was resounding and actually felt good under Mashyuu's foot. The Wizard glared down at the Demon, at last feeling like he had an upper hand against the beast. The Demonic creature started to kick around wildly, trying to free itself from the boot on it's face.

Mashyuu started to grind his foot until suddenly the Demon's wing lashed out and shoved Mashyuu hard. The Wizard rolled off the Demon King and spun around while balling up his fists. "I don't normally kill but I'm going to put that rule aside for you and your other Demon friend. You ready for that?" Mashyuu ripped the bow off his body and fired another arrow, slamming it into the Demons chest. The force of the explosion blew the demon back as Mashyuu rushed forward, jumping into the air and drop kicking the creature in the chest and face. t

The blow staggered the Demon Lord while Mashyuu landed on his back and changed into a bolt of golden electricity. He rocketed backwards and appeared again standing straight up with both is arms up ready to fight. He bounced on the balls of his feet while watching the Demon carefully. Mashyuu had somehow managed to slow it down from all of his strikes it wouldn't take long now.
