Unique Wind Attribute
1087 Words
""Uncle Zack!""
A girl and a boy rushed toward a kneeling old man.
A few strands of white hair were in his black hair and his pale face made him even older.
"It's okay Luna, Narvi. I just need some rest."
Zack said with an exhausted smile.
"I-I'm sorry uncle...it's all my fault...sniff...sniff"
The girl cried profusely, looking at the bodies behind her.
"What are you saying ? It was our duty and I'm sure the others were happy to give their lives bravely for you..."
Zack said with a tender smile.
"Happy my a*s!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out on their left.
"""!!!"""
Zack quickly raised his tired body and went in front of the girl and the boy.
Snap!
A branch's snapping sound echoed as Aita came out from behind a tree.
Zack and the other two opened their eyes wide, seeing the young man in front of them.
He had an average face but his presence and gaze were anything but average.
Strange dark green symbols were tattooed on the right side of his face and his gaze was intimidating.
"Who would be happy to die ? Are you an i***t ?"
Aita asked in a mocking tone.
"I'm sure they all wondered why the hell they came with idiots like you before dying."
"!"
"Sniff...sniff"
The girl's face turned pale and the boy started crying at Aita's words.
"Y-You! Who are you?!"
Zack shouted, pointing his spear at Aita.
He comforted the children just a few seconds ago and Aita spoiled everything.
"Are you with them ?"
Zack asked, glancing at the dead assassins.
Aita's face deformed in disgust at Zack's words.
"I would never be with a bunch of cowards ganging up on an old man."
He said, ignoring the fact that he waited for Zack's exhaustion before coming out.
"Then why are you here...?"
Zack asked, suspiciously.
Aita just shrugged and walked slowly out of the grassy area.
Zack eyed Aita from top to bottom.
His clothes were ripped but he could tell that it was a formal suit.
An expensive one, on top of that.
"Are you...a noble ?"
Zack asked, though he doubted greatly.
"What...?"
Aita let out an icy voice.
If anything, he hated the nobles to the core.
No, rather Soren hated the nobles because of Alfred and the other noble bastards he met in Wessex.
What Orion endured because of nobles didn't help to calm his anger either.
"Don't put me with those assholes."
Aita said disdainfully.
"What ?"
"Uncle! Kill him! I'm sure he is with them!"
The girl shouted hatefully.
"I said I wasn't with them. Are you deaf ?"
Aita was annoyed by her words.
"Hmpf! No way I would believe you!"
She said angrily. It was obvious that she was not in the right state of mind.
"You don't have to believe me, little girl."
Aita smiled while channeling his mana.
"What?! I'm not a little girl!"
She shouted, vexed. Even more so, when the guy saying this was the same age as her.
"Luna calm do...!"
Zack tried to calm down his niece but he stopped midway and turned toward Aita.
SWOOOOSH!
A dark green wind swirled around Aita.
The dust and leaves around him rose and flew everywhere.
"Unique wind attribute..."
Zack muttered in shock.
Even the girl and the boy were shocked to see the strange wind swirling.
Unique attributes were already extremely rare and in the wind attribute it was even more so.
In fact, on the whole continent, never has anyone shown a unique wind attribute.
Moreover, the dark green tint was really frightening.
"Luna! Narvi! Move away now!"
""Y-Yes!""
Zack shouted and the two moved away immediately.
Confirming that they were at a safe distance, he channeled mana on his spear.
Though he looked confident, inwardly he was sweating buckets.
He was tired from the fight before and his opponent was not someone to scoff at.
Rather, anyone with a unique attribute was dangerous, but it wasn't the problem for Zack.
No, it was Aita himself the problem.
In his fifty years, he never saw someone like Aita.
He was giving him a dangerous feeling.
No, maybe one person was similar.
'He is like Cynthia...'
He thought about the Empress of the Nychterin Empire and gulped.
Aita smiled seeing Zack putting a tough front.
"Come on, you will never be worthy of Valhalla, if you act like that!"
' ' 'Valhalla ?' ' '
The three were confused by his words.
Squeezing his left fist, Aita gathered mana on it.
Whoosh!
Buuuuuzzzz!
"W-what ?"
Zack was shocked to hear the piercing sound.
Dark green wind swirled at great speed in Aita's left hand.
"Njord Wind..."
"Luna! Take Narvi and hide behind a tree!"
Zack had a very bad premonition so he asked the two who were observing them from afar to hide.
Lena nodded with a pale face and hid with the boy.
Buuuuuuzzzzzz!
"B-Big sis..."
The boy, scared, hid in his sister's embrace.
Lena patted her brother's head and looked at the imminent shock.
'Uncle Zack...'
She was worried about her uncle as he was tired from the battle before.
Luna glanced briefly at Aita and opened her eyes wide.
"Wh-what is that...?"
She saw Aita's eyes turn dark green and even a few strands of his black hair turned golden. He wore a smile typical of a battle maniac.
Bam!
Stomping the ground, Aita propelled himself toward Zack.
Whooosh!
Zack pointed the spear at Aita and spoke.
"Gravity..."
Soon, Aita's left fist reached the spear's point.
"Air Blast!"
"Claws!"
BOOOOOM!
The resulting shock wave of the collision uprooted a few trees around and the others were on the verge of breaking.
Crack! c***k! c***k!
"Wh-what...?!"
Luna shouted in utter shock.
The tree she was leaning on was making cracking sounds.
Aita gritted his teeth as he was getting pushed back.
Blood was flowing out of his mouth.
"f**k!"
He channeled even more mana.
The green crest on his left hand shone and even more wind swirled around him.
Buuuuzzzzzzz!
"What?!"
Zack was already shocked that a brat could resist his attack, but now he was even getting slowly pushed back.
He glanced at his niece and nephew shielding their heads.
'No choice.'
He put all his remaining mana on his spear.
"Gravity..."
"Damn old monster!"
Aita cursed Zack as he felt a tremendous amount of mana released again.
He fought several strong assassins for a long time and he still had mana!
"Spear!"
Boooom!
