Quickly, slashes were directed towards Tristan as he dodged each one of them. Shadow quickly used his leg to toss some nearby food in Tristan's face, Tristan quickly used his hands to shield his face. Shadow quickly saw it as an opportunity and dashed towards, aiming for his neck, but Tristan shielded himself with his hand, and immediately both arms were severed from his body.
"Tch, you're annoying!" Tristan said as he quickly grew two new arms.
"What can I say, you're fun to toy with, unlike that other girl that knocked me out the last time…but no matter, I'll deal with her another time, right now I wanna take my time hacking you to pieces," Shadow said as he licked the blood off his daggers.
"Where's riot and lenora!" Tristan yelled furiously, demanding to know what happened to riot and Lenora as he clenched his fist in anger.
"Oh they're somewhere else… right now, you should focus on me," Shadow said with a sly grin, his tone carried a hint of sarcasm, and yet mockery could be heard.
Before the conversation could proceed any further a group of guards arrived at the scene and surrounded the both of them.
"Both of you drop your weapon and come quietly!" One of the guard yelled, warning the two. shadow let of a big grin and then dashed towards Tristan with his daggers pointed towards his eyes, Tristan quickly moved before the attack could land.
"What a simple attack, not just simple too simple even for him… wait he's going for!" Tristan turned around quickly realising what he was aiming for the guards.
Shadow increased his aura till it became murderous, The guard's that were exposed to such aura quickly fell to their knees and in a second shadow used his dagger's to separate their heads from their bodies. The empty hall was covered in blood, more and more guards rushed in the hall to stop the commotion and many met their end from shadows dagger.
"I'M GETTING HIGH FROM ALL THIS BLOOD…IM GETTING HARD OVER HERE!!" Shadow yelled as he grin grew wider and his blade became more stained as innocent lives were taken, he was blushing from ecstasy, he was in total bliss.
"MORE, MORE, MORE, MORE, MORE… I NEED MORE BODIES !… I'M GONNA MASSACRE EVERYONE HERE!!" Shadow Yelled as he dyed the hall red he then bounced of the ceiling of the hall and then aimed for Tristan as he launched himself down with such speed and strength due to his aura increasing his capabilities, Tristan was too late shadow's dagger was already at his neck
"What he's trying to decapitate me?… Im not sure if my body will be able to regenerate…crap it's too late I'm dead!" Tristan said to himself as he felt the sense of death hanging over him, shadow was sure he was about to hit his mark but something seemed wrong he noticed a girl in a maid's outfit slowly approaching them, everywhere suddenly turned blurry as shadows view became darker and darker till everywhere turned black.
A huge shadowy beast was in front of Tristan as shadows body fell lifelessly to the ground, the beast held shadows head that was severed from his body and then walked past Tristan and presented it to Rimera.
"Rimera!!… wh-what are you doing here!" Tristan said as a wave of relief shock and confusion came upon him, though he was shocked he was glad he didn't meet his end at the same time.
"As you maid and as well as your bodyguard it is my job to protect at all times" Rimera said as he bowed before Tristan presenting shadows head.
"Master behold your enemy's head." Rimera said as she waited for Tristan response she was like kid waiting for praise for doing something good.
"I don't know if I should be terrified or happy?" Tristan said to himself as he awkwardly smiled, "um what are you doing here?" Tristan was confused as to how rimera had found herself there, he was sure he left the mansion unnoticed.
"I was in the garden when you jumped through your window, obviously I alerted lady stacy and master Blanc, and they simply told me to follow you and in the case anything should happen I should protect you." Rimera explained as she raised her head.
"So I was being followed from the very beginning huh, well now is not the time to worry about that we need to go help Galaxy and Finn!" Tristan said as he turned around to leave but before he could take another step rimera stepped in front of him.
"I must deny your request sir!" Rimera said as she stopped Tristan from moving forward.
"Why!, they might be in serious trouble!" Tristan yelled.
"That's the problem you might get hurt, and as your bodyguard it is my duty to protect you from any situation." Rimera said in a serious tone as strengthened her resolve.
"She's kinda bossy." Tristan said to himself as he looked at her with hint of annoyance.

Galaxy and her group dove deep into the long hall that was connected to the massive door, the hallway was dark and the only source of light was from a mage who cast a small ball of flame.
The hall stretched itself leading the group underground through a stairway.
"It feels like we're going deeper underground… all of you get ready for anything." Galaxy alerted the team as she her battle instincts became wary of what they wereabout to run into.
After a few minutes of walking the group reached the end of the stairway and soon after they found themselves in a huge underground city.
"Where are we!" Galaxy said staring at the city with shock and amazement. The buildings in the city seemed to be in ruins, moss and vines grew on the abandon building. Galaxy and her group walked in a straight path as they wondered the city ruins.
"Captain what is this place?" One of the group members asked galaxy as they were at a loss for words at what to describe the place.
Galaxy stopped for a bit and placed her hands on a destroyed building, it was made out of clay and wood, its structure was not of the modern day but from a time where civilisation was way far behind its time. "From what I can see this looks like buildings from the olden days let's say during the first blood war." Galaxy said in a serious tone as she kept examining the ruins.
*CLAP*CLAP*CLAP*
"Good job I expected such knowledge from the student council president of obsidian academy." A girl about the same height as galaxy slowly clapped admiring galaxy knowledge. She stepped before them, she had long dark and she wore a black skirt and grey shirt with long leggings. It was Savier she was part of the same group that attacked the school during the exam.
"But… I don't think any of that knowledge will help you here this is the end of the line!" Savier said as the earth beneath them began to shake, she had a wide grin on her face.
