Chapter 11 - Yuki vs Seraphyne Part 2

Yuki had opened up his eyes and glanced around his surroundings as everything was dark, then later formed into something that would soon later affect his heart.

Everything around him burned to ashes, resetting, death was happening in front of his very eyes. He remained unchanged, but somewhere deep inside his heart, it was a painful sight to see.

???: Please stop this!

???: It burns!

???: AAAAHHHH!

Voices screaming, yelling for help in desperation as he couldn't stand the sight of this madness.

His heart was aching in pain seeing the innocence being harmed and killed in this process. Pillars built around Yuki as very dark-like tendrils appears stabbed him through the body, causing him to wince in pain.

Yuki: Am... I dreaming? Those voices are heard through pain and suffering.. I'm no there to help... I never could and never will...

His thoughts were slow as he became unhinged, cold, and to the degree, even less human.

The illusions had disappeared as Seraphyne collapsed the pillars. These pillars are what formed the scenery.

She attacked him at such high speeds, but Yuki had avoided her attack. Her smirk was there, until she realized something was wrong.

Seraphyne: Something's wrong... totally different. I can't sense his presence nor emotions. What is he up too?

He grabbed her by the neck and pinning her downwards onto the ground with a strong grip. She coughed as he stayed on top of her with his katana inches away from her face.

His expression had changed as she glanced at his face. That moment was when it hit her.

Seraphyne: His eyes... they're.. empty?

Indeed she was correct to think that. He stayed on top of her, ready to push his katana downwards.

Seraphyne: He's lost it... he's losing his mind... at this state, he's already far gone and had lost all feelings...

Her eyes widened in shock as she kicked him off with such force which caused him to let go and stepped back immediately before she landed that kick.

Seraphyne got up, but sweat was dripping from her forehead. Her seductive attitude had suddenly disappeared, and what remained was fear and no understanding.

Yuki: You know Seraphyne.. putting me into some type of illusion reality.. it pisses me off that you think I'd feel upset..

His tone was cold as ice as she felt shiver down her spine. His presence was unfathomable. She trembled in a bit of fear, her legs couldn't move.

Yuki charged towards her with more speed than before, causing a large crater on the concrete floor and swung his katana horizontally. While she couldn't physically move, her body had done it for her, and barely dodged the attack.

She landed gracefully on her feet, but that immediate land, he was already there, then swung his katana again. She ducked, but her jacket had got caught by the tip of his blade.

That moment, she placed her hand, causing a disruption to his soul.

Yuki glanced at her hand, then swatted her hand away as his soul was slowly being overwritten through the DNA particles.

Seraphyne stepped back and smirks again, but this wasn't her usual confident and seductive smirk. It was a smirk of someone who is anxious and terrified.

Yuki: Overwritting my soul... so.. you're trying to kill me before I kill you then huh..?

Seraphyne: That was the original plan.. my plan was to end you immediately, although you fucked my plan over...

He noticed her seductive tone had disappeared as he gripped his katana tightly, though the effects of his soul being rewritten had kicked in. He coughed up blood then spit it out with no reaction to the effect.

He sighed then sheathed his katana, then performed specific hand movements. His hands were forming the symbols that could represent destruction, then as the finishing hand sign appeared, it was that moment she knew, she had messed up badly.

Seraphyne: The hell...?

Yuki: Hollow Extinction of Life...

His mumbled tone had summoned out three large magic circles above him in which let's out a large beam of destruction energy. Seraphyne teleported away before it had hit her as she was floating in the sky.

Seraphyne glanced down as she sweats more and looked around.

Seraphyne: The fuck is that?! He's insane! No.. he's not even insane to begin with! I'm not sure what he is, but he's not sane that's for sure!

She looked behind her, realizing it had destroyed parts of the city, and also entire mountain ranges.

Her eyes widened as she landed on the floor, and looked back at Yuki in the eyes. It was truly something that she didn't witness before once in her life as the Sovereign Queen of Lust.

The attack had shook the entire Luxuria realm plus the universes that were in the sky as little spheres.

She was speechless as she couldn't process this. Then, Yuki charged towards her as she was off guard, and in that moment, she was punched on the abdomen, then kicked her through the destroyed mountains.

She was flying through these mountains, getting bruised and bloodied up by the injuries she's getting by hitting the ground and skidding against it.

As her momentum stopped, he had appeared on top of her as she struggled to sit up.

Yuki: I'll kill you... here and now..

Seraphyne: Wait! I give up! You win!

She put her hand up, stopping him from attacking. He was unsure why she had conceded the fight, even though killing her was faster.

She sat up and had used the ground to help her. He glanced in her eyes as he stayed silent.

Seraphyne: You're strong... perhaps, you've been adapting mid fight. I shouldn't have underestimated you nor toyed with you. If I had went all out, I would've won right there and then.

He listened carefully as he sighed deeply, completely unsure what to say.

Seraphyne: I have a question... why do you spare me and hadn't killed me when you had the opportunity to do so?

Yuki: ....You've done some fucked up things, I can say that much. I'm only new to fighting, and after hearing you tell me that I'm not truly cursed by death, it had hit me. The truth was there..

Seraphyne: I see... and when I laid my hand on you, I couldn't eat up your emotions or presence...

Her tone was softening up as her seductiveness had disappeared. In that moment, she had realized it. Her eyes completely widened up as her vision became blurry, and tears fell.

Her craving for Yuki's emotions and presence, had decreased so much, she lost her appetite. It was to the point that feasting on emotions became nothing. She wasn't hungry anymore.

Her lustful behavior has also disappeared completely. She realized that he had lost all emotions prior to their fight.

Seraphyne: I want to know.... all I could swallow up was your negativity, so.. what happened?

Yuki stayed silent as she sat there quietly without making any noises. She sighed deeply, starting to see the pain in his cold eyes.

She had snapped her fingers, cancelling her soul rewrite in which made his soul revert back to normal.

His glance had melted her heart through pain as she stood up and walked him to a large waterfall, the same waterfall that he fell through.

Seraphyne: This is how you get back.

He stayed quiet as he hopped in, and as he was teleported back to Earth, he landed on the grass. Seraphyne had watched him leave as she had understood that she shouldn't play with her food anymore.

Yuki walked through the forest with silence. The leaves crunched underneath his feet as he roamed around the woods, and that was until he started hearing a little girl screaming in the distance.

He started ran over to the direction where the scream was heard, and as he arrived, he noticed a large magical beast destroying a small little village.

the girl had collapsed on her knees crying and then he had killed the beast just like that. It was like nothing happened, it was a quiet subtle attack. It had collapsed onto the ground and walked over to the little girl.

The girl glanced at him as she moved back a bit as she noticed his katana.

Yuki: ...Hey, are you okay?

Girl: Y-Yes, you're so strong.

She sniffed and wiped her eyes as he kneeled down to her level. He had patted her head and sat down.

Girl: Y-you're so... powerful. Do you think I can be as strong as you mister?

Yuki: ...Yeah. Although it's dangerous. So go back home, don't go outside at night.

The little girl–who is 9 years old of age–nodded then stood up.

Girl: Before I do, how do you keep calm in fights like this?

The question surprised him as he flinched and sighed.

Yuki: I'm not so happy really.. I never wanted this to happen.. if you'll become a fighter, don't. You'll witness things you'd hate to see. I never wanted to live after what I had seen. I'm just a scared child like you are.

He said with a calming and gentle smile. The girl had noticed his cold expression then left immediately. He was left alone, with his thoughts. He became lonely and had never thought a kid would look up to him.
