    His experience thus far was the only thing that had prevented Marick from taking too much damage from superior mage, being able to roughly predict some movements or react to them instinctively. However, as he released his Chain Lightning, Marick had let Zenshin pull a trick of his own. The Wizard Saint link-stepped behind his elder guild member, before delivering a punishing slash across the Solitaire's back, cutting almost to the bone. There was little Marick could do as the pain gripped his body and caused him to fall to one knee. He'd not sustained an injury quite this bad in over a year but, more than that, he was now essentially defeated. Zenshin was behind him, had struck him and - were this a duel to the death - would have ended him there and then. "I guess the age gap only helped for so long." he chuckled as he turned his head slightly so that his guildmaster could hear him.

    This wasn't a duel to the death though, and Marick still had a card or three to play as he gripped three cards and, in one quick motion, rolled to the right and launched them at Zenshin, once again creating space between the two. The Sabertooth Guildmaster had both linkstepped and used his other spell, meaning he probably hadn't very many options left to close the gap between the two.

    Marick was done, but that was fine, he wasn't expected to win. That wasn't until his S rank exam... In a futile attempt, he rolled to his side and threw another wave of cards at him, and Zenshin created a wall in front of him that consisted of leylines flowing to the left, sending the cards that way instead of into his forehead. He began walking forward, closer and closer to Marick who barely made any distance between then this time and attempted to push him on his back with a push with his foot.

    "Marick. Do you really believe in our cause to create a paradise? Are you really willing to die for our cause? I need to hear you say it and I need you to mean those words."

    This wasn't just a B rank exam, it was more than that. It was a test to see if he really was committed to their cause, it was the test of a paragon. And if he said yes to this, he would die here he laid, but if he said no, he would be healed and sent on his way with a new sense of power. The choice to live and die wasn't black and white in this situation, it was the grayest it could ever probably be for him. It's not like he knew it though, to him, Zenshin just asked for where his loyalties were.

    Marick's cards dropped to the ground beside him as his body was push to the ground. The gash in his back was causing him to lose a lot of blood and, although he was still conscious and perfectly aware, the pain was certainly pushing his pain threshold to its limit. He looked up at his guildmaster, a look of determination in his eyes even despite his loss. He felt he'd put up a good enough fight to at least be considered to be passed. Zenshin stopped in front of the card mage, looking down at him.

    "Marick. Do you really believe in our cause to create a paradise? Are you really willing to die for our cause? I need to hear you say it and I need you to mean those words."

    Marick pushed himself partially upright, holding himself up with his right elbow as he chuckled. "I came to you because a paradise is what I was seeking in the first place." He dropped back to the floor with a grunt of pain, closing his eyes tight for a moment as the wound on his back stung. "No...I don't believe in the cause...it's become like the air we breathe." he said calmly, before looking up at Zenshin again. "But for the sake of clarification...yes, I believe in that paradise, and I would die without a second thought to bring that paradise to life."

    "I'm glad you feel that way Marick, and you'll be glad to hear that you'll be able to test your selflessness too" he said with a smile as he walked up to Marick.

    If he objected, even once, Zenshin would stop his blade. But he heard no such objections. He got closer and closer and reached his blade farther and farther out until the tip touched the card mage's neck. In a single, swift movement, he slit his throat. Blood splattered off to the right side and drenched his sword as well. With the amount of blood loss already sustained, as well as the fact that Zenshin made sure to snip his jugular in the attack, Marick would have died a quick and relatively painless death. Almost immediately after killing his guild member, Zenshin made a single downwards movement of his weapon, purging it of blood, before sheathing it. Summoning all his power, he began charging one of the gifts bestowed upon him by the previous guild master, a spell known as Perseverance. When he wanted to, he could use up all of his power for a single resurrection, known as "True Resurrection". It was no healing magic or restoration magic, it simply was what it was, and Zenshin would be doing this for every one of his extraordinary guild members. They would die members of Sabertooth, but be reborn as Paragons of their cause.

    "I'm glad you feel that way Marick, and you'll be glad to hear that you'll be able to test your selflessness too"

    The entire scenario probably lasted for a total of ten seconds, but in Marick's mind it felt...timeless. He knew he was dead. Zenshin had ensured that.

    Marick's eyes opened, and widened in momentary shock at the sight before him. He was stood on a high platform, no larger in diameter than the length from his shoulder to the tip of his middle finger. "If this is heaven then those religious nuts have it all wrong." he chuckled to himself before hearing his own voice echoing as if bouncing off of the walls of a cathedral. This was clearly not any kind of a reality, but he was almost certain this wasn't the end either. As if on cue, multiple platforms appeared before him to create a path that appeared to go on forever. As he stepped onto one platform however he was suddenly stood at the very end of the walkway looking up at a pair of large silver and gold doors. ...next time I see Zenshin I'm telling him to lay off of those noodles...

    He stepped forwards and pushed against the doors in an attempt to open them, only to find himself stuck to the spot as he felt some unfamiliar energy flow through him from his left hand, right through his body to his right hand, before leaving through his fingertips. He removed his hands immediately and looked down at them. They seemed to glow gold momentarily as if the energy had left some kind of a residue, before returning to their normal flesh colour. "Well...wonderful as this trip has been, I have places to go and people to see." the Solitaire spoke almost casually. ...talking to yourself is the first sign of madness Marick... he thought to himself as he placed his palms against the doors again and pushed them open. Behind the doors was simply a black abyss that immediately engulfed him.


    Marick's eyes opened, this time to the sight of Zenshin stood over him with his sword still in his hand. "I guess it's normal to complain of a dry throat right?" he said with a smile, content that this time he was back in the land of the living; his voice hadn't echoed this time. Despite having been...well, dead, the card mage actually only felt tired, as if he'd woken from a long, deep slumber. Renewed was possibly a word to be used...but tired was definitely what he was feeling right now.

    And then he did it, he cast it. The culmination of all his power was used for this one spell to bring back his ally from death. Normally, all of the guild members would help him, but none were around, so he had to purely draw from his own strength, which exhausted him tremendously. If it wasn't for his coat, he'd be on the ground, breathing heavily, but thank the gods that he stole Marick from that he did. Marick even made a joke when he came back from the grave, not the greatest first words, but at least his last words were great.

    "I'm glad you can joke after just being dead Marick. Come on, get up, you can sleep once you get back to the guildhall-" he said as he helped him up from the ground and recreated something in his hand after wards.

    It was definitely the end of an intricately designed key.

    "Connect that with the ring, it'll click together. It's the key to the door at the end of the hallway. I don't recommend going in there until you're A rank though, it could get quite hectic in there. Now let's go, Sabertooth needs to meet and recognize the Paragon of Selflessness, congratulations" he then said with a smile. This was a big moment, not only for Marick, but for the guild.
