My Beginning After the End Downfall

The Devil vs. Wraiths

Virion Leywin

I stood there on the shore of Slore, waiting, I wasn't directly on Slore's shores, but I was close enough to see it from where I was. Scythe Viessa's body was on the ground below my feet, she knocked out, and was not going to wake up any time soon.

I felt the blood signatures of the Wraiths heading this way, at least they responded to the call, this should be entertaining, I just don't know how long I'll be able to last, but let's hope that this little ploy works.

The ten Wraiths landed in the sand twenty yards from me, forming a line as they faced me, I conjured a sword in my hand and held it to Viessa's throat. "How are you guys doing?" I asked them while I examined their appearances, each one dressed a little different, but their horns were much bigger than mine. "I'm Virion Leywin, it's nice to meet you."

"Tch." The one on the right said, then spit on the ground. "Look at his horns, how pitiful." He said, and I reached up and touched my little guys, then tilted my head as I looked at him. "What are you looking at?"

"I'm going to kill you first." I told him, giving him a head nod, their auras were potent, but not as potent as mine. "Alright, I am only fighting one of your squads, the other one will take Viessa's body and leave."

"Hahaha." The red haired Vritra laughed, purple and black fire erupting out of his back. "No one cares about the Scythe, if she dies, she dies." He said, and I nodded my head, then twisted the sword, drawing blood on her neck.

"You see, there is a flaw with that though, if you allow me to kill her here, everyone in this world will know that I killed her, and that you Vritras, aren't as powerful as you say you are, it'll show that you can be defeated." The red haired Vritra stopped laughing, getting what I was saying, but someone else waved it off.

"Who cares?!" A black haired one said, conjuring a black sword in his hand. "Kill her for all I care, if we capture you, what's stopping Agrona from having you create a new Scythe Viessa for him?"

"Good point." I said, pulling my sword back, then stepped towards the Wraiths, leaving Viessa's body there. "Alright, fine, I'll take on all of you, that's fine with me, truly, ten on one, fuck it." I conjured another ice blade.

"Hahaa." The red haired one laughed, his black eyes matching my gaze. "You won't be able to disrupt all our cores, we know that, so how do you plan on taking us on?" I shrugged, I had no clue, I was only here to kill who I could, and last as long as I could.

I shot at them, swinging my sword at the red haired Wraith, his eyes widening as he took a step back, dodging my blade, a tendril of acid shot at my back, I froze it, conjured a black spike into another Wraiths chest, but he dodged it.

A bolt of energy came at my head, I ducked, dodged a spike of their own, spun in the air and slice the armor plate of the Wraith in front of me, landed on the ground, and deflected an attack to the ground, breaking his sword with a kick in the center of it.

"Ahh!" I screamed, pushing mana out of the shadows around me, spikes grew rapidly across the field, causing them to run around, dodging them, three of the Wraiths were close enough throw attacks of their own at me.

A fist came at my face, it was surrounded with soulfire, I brought my blade up at superhuman speed, using blood acceleration, wind magic, and Thunderclap Impulse to increase my speed to reach new limits, my blade sliced the Wraith's arm off.

The ground beneath me started to shake, I jumped away as cracks opened up below me, and in the air, I was hit with a gust of wind, knocking me towards another Wraith who brought a sword to my gut, slicing it just barely, drawing blood as I landed.
