(One Day Until Execution)


Virion Leywin


So that was how they wanted to play this, I mean come on, ten Wraiths, a Scythe, well, and Cylrit was here, but he just left, I don't know where to, but he teleported away. I was watching the soldiers from afar in front of the wall that surrounded the city, there were about twenty thousand men and women from Alacrya around the city, in front of me, stood five thousand, but that was only because the castle was behind them, it was the furthest thing away from the shore.

It won't be easy getting in without anyone seeing me, but it was fine, I had an idea, I was going to just transform myself into an Alacryan soldier, if I looked like them, they probably would not question it.

It would have been nice if a supply run was coming in, I could sneak in as a soldier and get a free ride into the city, but then I would have to travel through Etistin to get to the palace. If I just walked out now, I could kill these five thousand men and women, but there is zero chance I could take on a Scythe and ten Vritras, that would be suicide, Tessia was right, wow, that's a first.

I started using my blood magic to transform my body into an Alacryan soldier with black armor on. I was now matching with the soldiers in front of me, the only issue was getting into their camp, they weren't lined up in battle formation, they were talking amongst themselves around their tents.

Alright, time to act, I need to be a dickhead from Alacrya, I started walking out of the forest, using blood magic to erase my presence, hoping that no one inside the camp can't sense me, I would remove all their magic, but I think that would be a big tell, I would literally be saying to Viessa that I was here.

I don't know who the Sentries are, but I think this will work, who knows, maybe it won't. I got closer and closer, the soldiers there not turning toward me, and as I got closer, I felt calmer, this was going to work.

Some of the soldiers now turned to me as I got within twenty yards, the few that saw me just ignored me, possibly thinking that I went for a stroll, I don't know, but a group of soldiers did come and confront me.

"What were you doing walking so far out of Camp?" The man in the middle asked, and I stopped right in front of him.

"I was just checking our surroundings, I am a little paranoid and scared right now, sorry." I said, lowering my head, it was good I changed my face, I copied an Alacryan I killed in Slore, so I didn't get recognized as Virion Leywin.

"Oh, don't you worry, the Devil of Dicathen won't be showing himself to us, and even if he did, we won't be the ones fighting him." The man assured, reaching a handout. "You must be a new recruit or something, my names Kilve of Blood Storm."

"Finnick, Blood Unnamed, but I serve HighBlood Denoir." I said, and his eyes widened, he seemed surprised. "I'm sorry, like I said, I get paranoid, so I wanted to just walk around and make sure everything was safe."

"Are you Sentry?" I nodded. "Oh, so you were expanding your range into the forest to see if anyone was out there, I get it, we all do." He waved to the three other men behind him. "You're fine, I suggest going back to your tent and relaxing though, tomorrow is going to be a busy day."

"I will, I am sorry for causing any trouble." I said, giving them a head nod, then started walking away, the four men did the same, but in the other direction. I was a clone, but as I walked through this camp, I yawned like I was tired, but the thing was, I didn't need to sleep, I literally am not real, so I found that funny.

Scythe Viessa, hmm, I forget, I think she is the black haired, no, I forget what she looks like, actually, I don't think you ever see her face in the novel, maybe you do, I just forget. I don't know what her abilities are, but I will be absorbing them, same with the Wraiths, I don't think Agrona planned this out, he is handing me countless decaying mana type style arts, I still had to absorb Erie's blood, and I plan on giving Jagrette's blood to someone else, I could give myself a little of it.
