World End: The Successor's Contract

Chapter 47 A Shadow's Illusion



Launching herself to the front, she gave out a raging scream with her sword held out and ready to strike down Zeno.

But just before she was about to slice him, she twisted her body in midair and tilted to the side before stabbing the ground with a loud turd following right after.

She looked at the ground and saw a shapeless shadow stuck under where she had just punctured, "What are you?" She asked with a bold face.

The shadow began to laugh, "An Ankia trapped in my domain, it's really such a pity you had to be a beautiful girl." The voice asserted.

"Domain?" Hina muttered as she looked around, the shadow used that opportunity to his advantage.

He dashed out of the tip of the sword and stood a few feet far away from Hina in his human form.

Hina didn't panic, instead, she stood to her feet with her eyes focused on the ground, "I remember now.." She hinted.

"The mission, Zeno, the village.." Hina uttered before giving the shadow a death stare, "You work for Lucifer don't you?" She asked.

The shadow paused for a while before laughing at the question she asked, "Oh my, you figured it out, but that's not going to do you any good, how long do you think you've been trapped here!." The shadow claimed with his face tilted forward.

"I see." A small dark portal appeared beside Hina before the bottom of a huge blade popped out of it.

Hina grabbed the bottom and pulled out the huge blade, leaving the massive blade to smash the ground with it's weight.

She began to move toward the shadow with her blade scraping the ground as she advanced, "If you say I can't leave this world… then I see no reason keeping you alive." Hina muttered with the sound of her footsteps adding to her the voice of the blade.

"Are you so stupid, you would really think to attack me?" The demon mocked with a slight smile.

With no smile whatsoever on her face, Hina raised her blade to the sky, "Stay still will you, I'll make this quick." She continued.

Her blade went slashing in the demon's direction, but the demon was quick to dodge it after he sensed the magic coming from the attack.

The demon took a huge leap back as he watched the balde charge toward his location, once the demon landed on the ground, his eyes widened in shock at the sight he saw.

There was a small dark portal in the middle of where the blade had cut, it didn't take smart ass to tell the blade had cut space.

The small cut in space was starting to vacuum the air around them in, but because of it's size that was all it could do.

Not only that, but the both could see little sighting of Tamron village in the portal which left the demon in more shock.

"Your weapon can cut through the fabric of space?!" The shadow asked as it moved back.

Hina slowly stood up while still in her striking pose, "I missed." She mumbled to herself before standing upright.

She looked at the shadow and began to walk toward him again.

"Damn it, what kind of sword cuts through reality!" The shadow yelled.

Whoosh!

Hina dashed to the front at full speed before aiming her sword at the shadow with her eyes glowing from the action.

But before she could get a clear swing she was transported to another place almost instantly.

Hina found herself in the middle of a town, where all the buildings around her were on fire and the ground was slowly falling apart on itself.

Hina's eyes observed the surroundings before her gaze fell to the ground, "This must be another one of the demon's illusions" She uttered before tightening the grip on her blade.

Wisskh!

With a raging scream, Hina slashed her blade and another hole opened up in the air, it began spreading still that exact reality shattered like glass.

She suddenly arrived in another place filled with green grass and plants.

Hina looked around before walking forward, she planned to get out no matter the cost, so she kept on breaking illusions upon illusions.

Until she arrived at a particular illusion where the shadow was sitting on a shrine just a few feet away from her.

"How long do you think you've been here?" The shadow asked.

"Not enough to care." Hina responded.

…. "In the real world it has only been a few seconds, but in this world, my world, you've been here for fifteen years." The shadow revealed with a calm voice.

Hine stood there before her blade fell to the ground, she began remembering the 15 years she did spend with Zeno in the shadow's world.

She gave out a painful grunt, "The fact that I feel the need to thank you, is just absurd." Hina expressed.

The shadow laughed, "Demons aren't all bad, I fulfill my Lord's wish, but… hurting people with their dreams is something I don't have the heart to do,".

"I thought, giving you the one thing you've always desired, would make you happy… but yet you wanna leave." The shadow exclaimed.

Hina had her eyes on him the whole time, the longer she spoke the more she remembered Zeno's face.

"I appreciate what you did, although it was not of my choice, it was still a gift in a way, that said, I have to return to my world, this was world was never mine." Hina voiced out with her eyes set on the shadow.

"And I can't change your mind?".

"No, no you can't, I have people waiting for me in my reality." Hina replied.

"If you leave, I'll be all alone again, I…I don't want you to go." The shadow insisted.

"I'm sorry, but I'm going to need you to send me back." Hina uttered, 'Since when do demons act like kids?' She thought to herself.

"It's too bad, you seem to be determined." The Shadow voiced out as it got down from the shrine

Long spiky shadow Spears began to appear around The Shadow and a dark gateway showed up in the sky.

The shadow pointed at the gate, "If you want to leave, that's the gateway to your world, but my master awaits you at the other side… so before you can use this gate you are going to have to battle me," The shadow announced.

Two small portals showed up beside Hina before she pulled out the swords.

"I can't disappointed him… I'd do anything, if a battle gets me back, then let's have one." Hina expressed.

"Even though I recreated him here?" The demons asked.

"He's not an illusion!".

Whoosh!

Hina dashed toward the shadow with both of her swords bringing out fire and ice separately as she advanced.

"Very well".

The long Spears began to lift from the ground before they were aimed at Hina, "You can die for all I care,".

The shadow then launched the spears at Hina at full speed, but that didn't stop her advance.

She kept going with her eyes fixed on the shadow, 'Zeno…. sorry I took so long…but I'll end it all now!' She yelled.
