Chapter 10 - Wrath

Eris opens his eyes and blinks multiple times before sitting up.

"Ughh! It's morning time already," he groaned and then looked over at Henry. His face lit up with light shock. "Wow, Henry is so... cute when he's asleep. Maybe I could just lie here and wait for him to wake up or-

BOOM!

"What the hell was that?!" Eris yelped. He stood and walked quickly over to Henry. "Henry, wake up now!" Eris urges. Henry shifts his body and groans. "Ugh, why?

BOOM!

Seven people jump up onto the floating island.

"Prince Henry, your father, Lord Zane, sent us to take you back home," a man says. "NO! He's not going anywhere! Henry, who are these people?" Eris asks, readying to attack them.

"They are called the Deadly Seven. They are like the 4 Elementalist but seven of them. We should leave before they kill us,"

"No, we can't. If they found us here, we can't hide anywhere. I have a wind dome protecting us. So, tell me everything you know about them," Eris says firmly.

"First thing you should know is that they get the name because of how they act. All the sins: envy, sloth, lust, greed, gluttony, pride, and wrath. They don't have magic, but they have magic-like powers. They say that each of the sins stole power from fairies with the use of magic items. Till this day, no one knows their names, or their age, not even my father," Henry explained regretfully. 

Eris grunts. "Okay, I'm at my limit with this dome. Let's fight them," he announces with a smirk. "WHAT?! We have to leave, not even my father is able to fight them!" Henry urged. "Your father doesn't have magic. And I'm at my limit so, I'll take the dome down and I will fly us down back to the ground," Eris informs him

BOOM!

"Hurry and grab our things, Henry! You know what just leave it," Eris said as the dome broke. "It's only one of the sins here. It's the dragon sin, Wrath," said Henry. "Eris, Watch out!" Henry ran in front of Eris, attempting to block a blast of magic but it carries the both of them up away and off the floating island... tumbling down to the ground.

 "Damn it! Henry are you okay?" Eris asks, on top of him. Henry blinked struggling to wake, "What happened?"

"Wrath knocked us out of the sky but you took the heat of it to the ground 

BOOM

"Seems like Wrath felt back down I'll beat him up for you, ok?" Eris tells him. Henry smiles. "Ok, but use strong magic," he says. "Sure,"

"Looks like I found you. Give the Prince back to me and I might show you mercy," Wrath violently ordered, meters away. "I doubt that you sins give mercy to fairies. Also, I'm not showing mercy to you, you hurt Henry and I care about his safety very much!" Eris maintained. 

Wrath smirks deviously, "Well, too bad for you then I have to kill you"

"No. It's the other way around actually. Sanguinem vomens.

"What was that gonna do? Because I don't feel noth- What's happening to me!?" Wrath screeched as he began to cough up blood. "That spell is actually from a human grimoire so you should know? Will you leave right now or stay and vomit blood until you have no more to live?" Eris asks sincerely, but with a firm expression.

Still coughing up blood, Wrath nodded in pain. "Fine," Eris lightly smiles and lifts his hand. "Damn it!" Wrath slams his fist to the ground, "I can't kill you like this. You are one powerful mother fucker who'd put me on my death bed. I will leave for now, but we will be back. All of us and we'll end your Kingdom as well!" Wrath yells.

"Shut up and leave already," Eris spoke with a hint of annoyance in his tone. "Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you," Wrath cautioned just before disappearing. 

Eris focused back on Henry, "Okay time to get you healed up Henry,"

Wrath appears in a dark cave.

"You know, he really underestimates you captain," Greed said. Wrath scoffs. 'Yeah he does, but the war is coming up, so no need to worry," he smiles.

"What do you mean "The war"? It's been a war for over 1,000 years," Sloth spoke with mysterious grace. "I mean that the hunters will end this war by ripping the Fairy Kingdom apart!" He bellows. "Actually," Gluttony spoke, "the king might have to use project HG. I wonder if the Fairy Prince power is equal to project HG, do he have god like powers?
