After visiting Annabel Mars and Mary walked around the city of prayer hand in hand and took in the sights of the various religious idols around the city, many of which depicted the 13 archangels one of which caught Mars" attention, it was a statue made of withe marble depicting a woman holding a pair of gla.s.ses with one hand witch she was using to look through some doc.u.ments she was holding in her other hand, on her back were two sets of wings and her body was covered by a robe"doesn"t that look like someone we know?"
Mary looked over at the statue and thought for a moment before she answered
"I think that"s a statue of information"
"oh so it"s info... that"s why it looked so familiar"
the two of them spent a little more time walking around before they returned to Green river via portal and went to bed...
Mars" eyes snapped open, it was night and the lights were shut off so naturally darkness surrounded him, he waited a few moments for his eyes to adjust to the darkness before he got out of bed, or at least he tried to fist he had to untangle himself from the girls, a few moments later he finally managed to get out of bed without waking anyone before he sneaked out of the bedroom picking up some clothes from the floor on the way out. After he got dressed Mars walked towards his workshop where he arrived a few minutes later, opening the door Mars gave a slight frown
"was it always this messy..?"
Mars then navigated the messy workshop and quickly found his armor on a stand and wore it, the dark steel half plate armor had changed a little, now it was covered with formation runes which Mars had engraved on it that shone lightly with a soft glow in the dark workshop
"what are you doing Mars?"
"....getting ready"
Mars didn"t turn around he picked up some other magic tools and stuffed them in a backpack he had prepared and swung the backpack over his shoulder
"what are you getting ready for..? don"t tell me you are going after Yimir?"
"that I am, don"t worry Mary I"ll be back before the sun rise"
Mars finely turned and saw Mary standing in the doorway, she was wearing one of his s.h.i.+rts and had a light frown on her face
"....do you really have to?"
"yes I do, he cursed you so naturally I want him dead"
Mary gave a sigh and leaned up against the doorway as she folded her arms in front of her chest
"if you really have to then be careful"
Mars gave a smile and walked up to Mary before he gave her a quick kiss
"thanks, now back to bed with you young lady"
"...you know I"m 116 right?"
"sure... back to bed you go"
Mary gave a sigh and walked back towards the bedroom while Mars saw her off before he gave a sigh and walked up towards the roof. Stepping out on the roof Mars took a long breath of the night air and kneeled down and patted the ground twice before he spoke
"sorry to disturb your sleep Victoria"
"I... don"t mind... where are... you... going?"
"I just need to take care of something real quick, want to come with?"
"no... I want... to sleep... more"
"good night then"
Mars stood up and transformed his hand before he slashed out into the empty air and made a rift in s.p.a.ce which soon stabilized into a portal which he then stepped though...
The night was quiet in the city of prayers, except for a few mostly drunk people walking around on the streets it was empty and devoid of people, Mars walked along the streets and soon arrived in the part of the city were most of the villa"s where and started to look for the biggest one, but quickly was forced to give up his search as he quickly found his target
"....really dude?"
as for why he knew this was Yimir"s villa was simple, it was the giant YIMIR sign that glowed in the dark that gave it away, giving a sigh Mars walked around the villa a few times scanning for a weakness in the security but quickly found that the villa was void of formations let alone guards and simply jumped over the fence and landed in the backyard and gave a frown as he looked around
"what the f.u.c.k..?"
the entire backyard was filled with statues and all of them had something in common they were all of people looking afraid and they were all made of the same back obsidian rock, Mars walked up to one of them and inspected it, it was of a small demon child that was crying its eyes out
"wait a minute"
Mars recognized the black obsidian rock form somewhere and suddenly got dizzy from smudging rage
"these are not statues..! Yimir you sick f.u.c.k..!"
Mars stepped away from the "statue" and looked towards the main building and quickly found an open door on the second floor terrace and silently ran over and jumped before he landed silently and looked in the open door
"bingo"
Mars silently steeped into the bedroom where a figure was laying on the bed which suddenly spoke
"I curse you with [DEATH]"
Mars froze and felt his body rapidly cool as he kneeled down on the wooden floor before his vision suddenly darkened and he pa.s.sed out for a moment...
"come on now stop playing dead.... fine, I curse you with [PAIN]"
Mars" eyes shot open as he felt pain like never before and with a low shout he activated [Instant movement] and disappeared from where he was kneeling momentarily confusing Yimir that saw in his bed before suddenly a sword light flashed and Yimir felt pain at his neck before he fell over forwards, Mars stopped at the side of him and caught his breath, he certainly had not expected to die once while killing Yimir but what was done was done, Mars transformed his hand into his claws and was about to slash at the empty air when he heard a voice
"I curse you with [DEATH]"
Mars looked over as his body once again cooled down and saw Yimir sitting up in his bed with one hand clutching his neck and an angry look on his face
"HAHAHAHA that"s what you get little brother!"
Mars stabbed his sword into the floor to keep himself from collapsing and focused his mind so he would not pa.s.s out meanwhile Yimir got up from his bed and walked over next to Mars and put a hand on his shoulder and whispered into his ear
"I curse you with [DEATH]"
Mars once again felt a hint of dizziness as he died once more meanwhile Yimir started talking again
"now why are you here little brother..? wait let me guess I cursed someone you know right?"
Mars didn"t have time to answer he instead just activated [Instant movement] or at least he tried to
"oh no you don"t, I curse you with [SLOWNESS]"
Mars felt his body freeze up, almost as if he had been dumped into a tub filled with ice cold water as his movements slowed to almost a halt meanwhile Yimir kept talking
"so let"s just a.s.sume I cursed someone you know and care about, then you coming her to kill me is natural"
Yimir nodded to himself before his face suddenly twisted with rage
"ONLY DID YOU EXPECT ME TO FALL OVER DEAD FOOLISH LITTLE BROTHER!!! I CURSE YOU WITH [TORMENT]"
then he kicked Mars in the stomach in a fit of rage before he suddenly calmed down and spoke in an almost apologetic tone
"you see when you have lived as long as I have your mood swings are a little extreme, sorry about that little brother... where were we again? Oh right I curse you with [DEATH]"
Mars collapsed on the floor his body convulsed form extreme pain or as Yimir called it "torment" it was unknown if he still was conscious not that Yimir cared about that
"now let"s get to the good parts.... what was it again..? Oh right, I curse you with----"
before Yimir had a change to finish his sentence Mars had stealthily put his hand into his backpack and pulled out the pin on a makes.h.i.+ft grande
*KABOOM*
the grande exploded instantly killing both Mars and Yimir as the floor collapsed and both of them fell down into the first floor living room, Mars landed on a couch while Yimir landed on a crystal table which was destroyed under the impact and scattered into many pieces...
"you are really good at surprising me little brother... BUT DID YOU HAVE TO BLOW UP MY VILLA, I CURSE YOU WITH [DEATH]!!!"
Yimir walked over and picked up Mars and suddenly had a board look on his face
"you know what? I tire of this, if you know what"s good for you then leave Salen and never return, if I catch you again I"ll kill you for real"
then Yirmir slashed out into empty air and ripped apart s.p.a.ce and formed a portal which he then threw Mars into...
