"This is absurd! Why did you leave the shelter! Now we don't have important information about those creatures!" she said as she tears out and continues to run.
"I'm sorry! It was a direct order, and our enemies hide pretty well for just a traveler, I didn't expect we could counter this such a high-level kind of enemies," he said in a happy voice as she saw him smiling.
"I'm never kissing if you smile again when talking about enemies! I'm worried about you! I want both of us to be happy and have a child! We will end our term tomorrow. This is our last mission! If we get this done quickly and manage to retire quickly tonight I'm straight and we're making a baby!" she said as Densetsu was about to tear when she suddenly kicked her in the face.
She stops and reaches toward him. "Hmmph!'' She was upset. Densetsu quickly stands and follows her from behind. They're quickly running into a forest that has different kinds of trees and is not connected to the trees outside of the land of Kartirya.
"I'm sorry..." he said to Taiyo as he made her feel comfortable again. She calmed down as Densetsu smiled at her as she was about to look back at him.
"Don't look at me smiling and don't ever call me your girlfriend if you ever get wounded," she said as she made an expressionless face. She slowly speeds up and speeds up. He quickly adapts to her speed as they quickly pass hundreds of trees.
"We're gonna approach a vast land, near the far southeast, we'll need to make sure to not encounter those creatures or else will be done for," she said in a serious voice as Densetsu remains quiet as he sees something straight on the left in the far distance in the shadow.
He sees blood dripping in the far distance to his left. "I smell blood, they've been here," she said as she quickly looked around her. She was moving her eyes left and right trying not to give attention to the enemies.
Densetsu senses someone following them from behind. He slowly runs to her side of her as she is on guard. "Someone is behind us, those duo, fox swordsmens might have encountered something different than this kind of enemy, they might encounter that snake that can throw a spear that he got from one of our fallen soldiers using its back tail, ridiculous," he whispers to her as she remains silent.
They reach the vast land. They both stop as their eyes widen and they see something terrifying in front of them. They both stand and their body is trembling in fear as Densetsu slowly moves in front of her and pulls out his sword.
The duo fox swordsmen. They pulled out their swords or so-called katanas in their waist. They stand to each other back to back as they see in front of them is a giant cobra and a griffin above the sky flying past them. The cobra suddenly goes back to the shadows as it sees that there's a griffin above him.
"That's a venomous snake," Gurushina Nirikure whispers to Zukori as they haven't sensed the Griffin above them. The griffin was quietly flying above them in the clouds. Over a thousand feet, the cobra is a quick snake so they stare at the snake and not move.
"This terrifying snake that is, a hell of a thing in this place, that snake must be at least thirty feet long, the average or a normal snake is at least three feet but these can be called an actual giant snake, it can kill more than six humans in seconds, we need to now let our guard down with this kind of creature in the land of Kartirya," Zukori Gakure whispers to him as he sees the snake looking up. It was hiding in the shadows and sees in its eyes it was terrified something even more.
He slowly raised his head and looked up. His eyes widen as he sees something flying above him. "Its wings?! Is not making any sounds?! But it's making a shockwave around it...? What is that?! A flying lion eagle...?...! And... It's looking down on us, is it planning to attack?!" he thought seriously as his eyes still widened. He was surprised and confused about what was happening.
"Shina! Look up!" he said to Gurushina who quickly looked up. His eyes also widened and quickly looked his ears back at the snake that suddenly disappeared into the shadows of the forest.
Suddenly they both got goosebumps. The air suddenly blew at them as they slowly pulled back their swords at their waist. He put back his mask on his face.
They both look up and see that the thing flying above them that they both don't know is flying away. It was flying even higher in the clouds.
They both heavily breathe and go back to being calm as they feel they're getting a heart attack.
"What the hell?...!" they both said in one voice furiously. They both look left and right and behind them. Zukori Gakure looks behind him and sees the rocky hill and sees the top of the peak.
"What did you do to the enemy? that we caught? That man Densetsu he said is furiously angry about something, he's talking about that shelter, they must've kept something important inside, and they should hide it better," Gurushina Nirikure said and ask as in front of him in a distance in the giant forest that is connected to the outside of the Kartirya.
"I killed him... That man has a mechanical arm, his left whole arm was a mechanic, and his arm was fast. I barely dodge his attack when Densetsu stops restraining him, even though his face is broken he still attacks and fights to the death... He has the honor and a lot of scars on his body, but we can't let that pass, I killed him and destroy his mechanical arm, if that mechanical arm was left there and someone find it or the enemy it would be new trouble, and that Taiyo girl, must be skilled swordswoman," he said in a serious tone as he said, Taiyo.
"There must be mythical creatures, I call it because I haven't seen them before, and it... Bothers me that why we didn't see something like this in our adventure and is this creature only comes in this land?" he asks as he raises his head and sees the clouds.
"I don't know what's the answer to your question," Zukori Gakure said as he looked to his left and right side and felt something strange about something they were standing on. They were standing on dirt and a bunch of grass. The land they're standing on feels suddenly shaky and a little bit like they're stepping on a pillow.
The sun was shining. They can feel the peace in the land of Kartirya. They don't see anything dangerous except for what they've seen today.
"Something's below us, be careful... Either way, we are assigned to go to our right and find a lot of new creatures that we haven't seen before," he speaks intelligently as he turns to his right and begins to walk. Zukori Gakure quickly follows him from behind and they both begin running.
"We have enemies, creatures we haven't seen before, and now something below us, and what do you think we could find?" Zukori Gakure asked as Gurushina interested him in something. They both made a thinking face.
The forest is on their left. The dark forest outside of the Kartirya but it's also a vast forest. And where they also see the giant cobra. Wider than a normal grown-up tree that is at least sixty to one hundred twenty feet high.
Suddenly they see a swordsman running in the distance. Suddenly it stops and catches its breath. Gurushina Nirikure and Zukori Gakure quickly hide their presence.
They quickly flew to their left. They hide in the shadows in the darkness of the forest. They looked up as they both walked into the shadows. They see that the trees are sal trees. Above them are beautiful glances of the sal tree leaves.
"Unfathomable!" they both said in one voice as they can't afford to speak even more of how beautiful is the land of Kartirya. In the distance, they see a flower land inside the dark forest. They taught it was a dark forest but it was only seen as dark when you were outside and once you come in you'll see the sun lighting up the flowers.
They see Daisy in the distance. It was a kind of flower or plant. They approach it as they look to their left and see a lot of cherry blossoms hiding inside the forest.
"Even though the plants here are healthy, I can live here for the rest of my life," Zukori Gakure said in a surprised and happy voice as Gurushina Nirikure couldn't believe what he saw and felt how peaceful it was.
They both were shocked as they approached Daisy in the distance. They didn't even care about the unknown swordsman. The unknown swordsman that catches his breath was confused as he turned around and saw that Gurushina and Zukori were gone. The unknown was trying to bait the two in a trap. It was an enemy. Suddenly another unknown swordsman arrives behind the unknown swordsman that catches his breath. The unknown stabbed the swordsmen in the back using his katana.
The unknown swordsman raised the unknown and has blood dripping over his mouth. The stranger that arrives is wearing a kimono patterned blue and a Gakure name behind his coat and has a sickle in his back hanging. He uses a sword and kills the unknown, he's also wearing a demon mask and has a scar on his right hand. The unknown removes his sword from the chest of the unknown swordsman and swings it in the air.
The unknown swordsman that he stabbed dropped dead on the ground. He also has earrings. He's at least seven feet tall and his sword is six feet long. He pulled back his sword as the earrings of the unknown swordsman got blown. His earrings were a little patterned vertical box, a small one, a little tiny.
"Kazikishi Gakure, my name on command by Zunji Girikure or Girukure, his name can still be changed because of his long-dead brother," he said in a serious voice as he turn to his right. He glanced at the forest and began to walk.
"I still can't believe those two ignored him. I can't let that pass when I see them with both of my eyes... The fox swordsmens, I'll give them proper discipline. This land is still such a beautiful place... Fifteen years, I finally manage to complete my mission project and now, it's time..." he said as he suddenly vanished as he walked in the forest shadow.
The unknown person who is named Kazikishi Gakure has an M symbol attached to his right top side front shoulder. His kimono has the design of a Marigold flower around his kimono.
Gurushina Nirikure and Zukori Gakure reach Daisy. It's in front of them and the sun was perfectly casting a light into the Daisy plant. They were touching the stem and the daisy with their bare fingers.
"I believe that, in the hidden village, they have this kind of plant, it's been a long time since I managed to see one of these," Zukori Gakure said as he walked around the Daisy.
"Yeah! And... We should get going, we have a lot of things to do," Gurushina Nirikure said as he walked past Daisy. He began to run towards the giant massive wall in the far distance where the Kartirya is inside.
"We've been assigned to go to our right n-" Zukori Gakure said as he suddenly got interrupted as he suddenly saw an unknown swordsman on his right. He was about to kick his face but he quickly knelt to avoid getting hurt.
The unknown kicked the air making a powerful force and shockwave blowing the leaves around. Gurushina Nirikure quickly turned around and pulled out his katana.
"Who the hell?! This Isn't the swordsman that I saw, it's different...?" he thought in complete surprise as he quickly ran towards them both. He quickly uses his reflexes as a fox swordsman to glide toward them.
He was gliding fast. He manages to reach them both in just two seconds before he lands and launches another attack on Zukori.
"Not bad! Huh!" the unknown said as he flipped back. He tumbles back as he was using both of his hands and feet to fly back faster than the reflexes of a fox.
Zukori Gakure slowly stands as Gurushina Nirikure stares at him. They both stared at the unknown menacingly with the killer's intent in their eyes. Gurushina Nirikure has his sword out but Zukori still has his waist.
"You know... Holding back to someone who you don't know is an insult, Kazikishi Gakure, I also ended your life, good thing you attack with a kick not with a sword," Zukori Gakure said in a serious voice and calm.
"What's wrong?! You know I'm stronger than you know, you better watch your mouth! You're a Gakure! Not fox swordsmen! And he's not a fox with a fox clan, none of you!" The unknown man is named Kazikishi Gakure, the one who killed the unknown swordsman outside the forest.
"I don't know what you're on about but, it seems you don't know anything, my friend... Akagitsune is the last name of my father, I was named Gakure to hide my name, and so is his, Nirikure as Haiirogitsune," he said again in a serious voice.
They both stare at him as he sees that the two aren't joking about what Zukori just said. His eyes were turning orange and so did Gurushina. Their eyes were changing and the pattern in their kimono was orange changing to a little bit of red.
"Everything here in the Kartirya... Are the supposed unexisting monsters, nightmares, devils, and inside the Kartirya are witchcraft, sorcerers, wizards, and dark magic that you hadn't seen before, and yes I hadn't seen the insides but the legends in the book history Kartirya speak the truth!!" he said in a furious voice as he suddenly looks up and hears and feels someone's above the trees above them, it's at least three hundred feet above them.
He raised his head and glanced as he couldn't fully see and sensed because of the giant branches blocking his sight and the giant compacted leaves blocking the light.
"What's wrong?" they both ask in one voice. As the swordsman in front of them both suddenly lowered their head and turned around and glanced.
"There's a total of two kings here I believe... The King of the air and the king of the ground... A Griffin is one of those, the king of the air," he said as he quickly looked up and suddenly felt quiet.
"They're here..." he said as all three pulled out their swords menacingly. They all spread out as they keep an eye out for their surroundings. The land that they're standing on suddenly goes dark.
Around them is full of darkness but they can still see because of the light of the Daisy in the distance. At first glance, Zukori Gakure sees the upcoming danger.
"Where at enemies territory, or I say the monster's territory, I can see them in my west in the distance, it seems it's the giant snake coming towards us, it's in the far distance quickly coming towards us, we need to go up, we can't outrun it," he said as Kazikishi Gakure quickly run towards a giant tree and started running. He uses his sword to go up by stabbing the tree and he walks sideways. He circled running sideways in the tree and managed to reach the compacted branch of the giant tree.
Zukori Gakure sees the terrifying giant snake that they saw earlier coming toward them. Now it's coming again with great speed and it's showing its sharp teeth as it crawls around the giant massive trees left and right at great speed.
It was about to reach Zukori Gakure and Gurushina Nirikure but they quickly jumped and avoided the snake. The giant snake quickly goes up and was about to bite Zukori's left leg but he manages to kick the snake making himself fly more up.
He landed on a tree branch at least one hundred fifty high up, the same as Gurushina and Kazikishi who stares at the snake who is also staring at them. The giant snake was making the land tremble by just crawling to the grounds.
"I can't wait to kill that snake! So I can live here peacefully in the future, that snake has its time, and it's probably an old one," Gurushina Nirikure said as he smiled. The three of them are holding their one-sided blade in their right hand.
Suddenly the snake flew up making Kazikishi Gakure shocked and it was coming after him. He suddenly can't move and is about to swing his sword but he sees the aura of the snake.
"Kishi!!" they both shouted at him as he quickly gained his instinct the lost a second ago. He quickly flew back up and jumped to another tree branch that is behind him and it's fifty meters up.
"Good thing I trained myself to jump high early, I'm like a rabbit who is a kind but sometimes cold-hearted human being," he said as he looked at the giant snake with his killer intent aura.
The giant snake reaches the tree branch that he is standing on. The giant snake took a giant bite of it destroying the giant compacted branch of a tree on the grounds.
Suddenly the three of them hear something flying above them at least more than a hundred feet up from them. The tree of them looked up and also the snake suddenly circled the grounds underneath them.
"I see... So, the one underneath us is the king of the ground, the giant snake and above us must be the king of the air, the griffin working together to kill us three," he said as they suddenly heard someone groaning above them like a lion.
They looked up and suddenly a bunch of leaves shattered and a part of the tree was also shattered and destroyed. Suddenly an opened part of the tree can be seen in sight. They can also see the giant griffin landing on the tree that he destroyed. Their eyes widen as they predict that this Griffin is bigger than the giant snake but it's longer.
The Griffin stared at them as it was standing with four of its feet on the giant tree. The Griffin was terrifying and looked like four animals were created to make the Griffin.
