310 Shiva and Shweta - face to face after a lifetime
Saisha, who finished her fight with the spellthief, was looking for Jaesin and the other elves at the venue.
Due to all the battles everywhere the whole building was just broken and damaged everywhere. Many walls had broken down and pillars collapsed and blocked the pathways. So she could just try to move around on a wild chase.
She didn't have the strength to scream their names out loud and her mana was nearly depleted so she was saving it in case of an emergency.
'Why hasn't anyone come for any help yet? The fight at the rooftop seems to be over too.' She wondered as she didn't hear any more sounds of screams or battles while walking around.
"I hope they didn't run into any more trouble or something." she said and planned to look on the other side.
But just when she turned around she heard something and decided to check it out. Jumping forward through the missing stairs, she came near a balcony with a broken railing, where she could see someone standing silently.
'Maybe he saw something.' Since the guy wasn't wearing any hoods like the other villains, she decided to ask him for help first.
"Hello, excuse me." She shouted as she raised her hand, "Have you seen anyone from the …"
In middle of her sentence she stopped as her heart jumped a beat when the men turned around and looked at her. Unbelievably watching that face brought forth an unsettling feeling that halted her steps. A familiar feeling along with a trace of guilt and sadness hit her heart, but soon it all turned into anger.
She didn't know him, and she was sure that she was sure she never met him or even saw his face, and that's what confused her about why her body was getting so riled up over some unknown.
Her mind started chanting spells on its own as her hands brought out the sword from her waist. She didn't even know what she was feeling anymore, as the more she looked at that face the more anger it brought her.
'Who is he?' She wondered as she raised her hand and a spear rose from the ground, ready to stab him and end his life.
"Who…are… you?" she asked hoarsely, as her feet rushed towards him with a sword raised high in her arms.
Shiva, getting out of his gaffe, looked at her coming forward to attack him and gave a helpless smile.
"I'm not your enemy, princess. Don't make me one." He said, dodging another attack from her.
"Who Are You?" Yet as if possessed she just repeated the same question again, her eyes fixed on his face, as if trying to pierce his soul and see who he really was.
As Shiva dodged another one of her spells, he noticed her nose bleeding a little. 'She doesn't have mana.' he thought and jumped forward to interrupt her as she started chanting another spell.
"You're overworked, princess. You should calm down." Shiva said as he slapped her sword away and grabbed her wrist and pulled her close, interrupting her spell. "You don't have mana, don't try to use it."
"You're dead." Saisha said, her eyes glaring at him, like she was staring at her lifelong enemy.
'She's exactly like her.' He said in his heart as for the first time after seeing her in arcadia was he so close to her.
He could almost hear her heartbeat and feel the hot breath of her on his body. And it all caused his memories to fall in shambles as the scenes of earth, of their time together came back to hit his mind like a tidal wave.
'Not now. You dumb fucking idiot.' Shiva cursed himself as he moved his body to the side just in time to dodge a punch that was coming to his guts.
But still not fast enough to dodge the kick that followed next.
'The fuck' Shiva said holding his jaw as he felt the sting of pain over her attack.. 'System, mind explaining anything?'
He asked his system over seeing the familiar set of attacks coming towards him. The same pattern - a punch to the guts, followed by a kick to the face, and then a head grab followed by a knee to the nose.
Though he dodged everything easily, it brought back dozens of memories about when Shweta used to train him back on earth. When he'd receive a beatdown every damn time.
'You said she doesn't have her memories?' Shiva said as he dodged all her attacks even before she made them. And it only seemed to make her even more angry.
[She_ she shouldn't.]
'Then how do you explain _ this?' Shiva said as he grabbed her hand and pushed her away, just to dodge the knife she was about to pull from under her arm guard next and try to stab him in the chest.
[Maybe it's mus..] 𝗳𝐫𝗲𝗲𝐰𝗲𝐛𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝐦
'Don't you dare tell me it's muscle memory.'
[...] × silence
'useless' Shiva cursed as he looked at Saisha, who pulled another knife from under her belt and rushed towards him.
'Why does an archer have so many knives anyway.' he said as he grabbed both her hands and kicked her back. Causing her to stumble and fall over the rubble.
"Fine. Enough is enough." Shiva said, watching her struggle to stand up again. "If you want a fight, I'll just beat you."
He said and ran towards her, Saisha who got up with difficulty looked at him and smirked. "You're one of them, aren't you?" She asked and raised her hands to call for the spell she was famous for in the novel. "I'll kill you too."
Shiva looked at her bleeding from her ears and nose as she started pulling all the mana she could to channel her trump card blessing of Gaia, Nature's Death. novelbuddy(.)com
"What an idiot." He said and appeared in front of her instantly. Grabbing her by the throat he lifted her up, until her face was in front of his face..
"Don't you dare try to die." He said as he grabbed her fist and blew on the powder she was holding in her hands secretly. Causing it to fly on her face. Watching as she slowly started losing her consciousness and stopped struggling, he put her back on the ground and finished his sentence. "Until I get all my answers."
"Princess.." A shout came from afar as he watched Jaesin running towards their direction, Shiva placed her down and disappeared from his place.
