Your Not So Ordinary Villain



Ezio's grip on his weapon tightened as the zombies got nearer and nearer. He could also feel that Isaiah was getting tired of the fight. They've been fighting these zombies for who knows how long now but they kept coming.

"They're endless. How come there are too many of them?" Isaiah mumbled to himself. While letting his lightning strike them all.

"This only means that this place has become their territory and whoever was bringing them here must be someone with real abilities," Cygnus smirked at that conclusion. This was an indication that it was not only the serpent-woman that was in the cave, there was something more, far stronger than what Ezio and Isaiah faced.

Cygnus laughed as he relished in the fact that he could enjoy this quest. In a heartbeat all the zombies surrounding him were incinerated but this time he did not use his usual red flame and used his blue flames that were more deadly and dealt greater damage. After the flames died down, even the ground showed black marks because of the fire.

Isaiah, who saw how easily he dealt with the zombies did not fall behind, he summoned his lightning and killed almost all the zombies that were around them. Ezio on the other hand took care of the zombies that did not die after the lightning attack. They finished off all of the zombies that were obstructing the way and followed behind Cygnus.

They finally came to the heart of the mine and saw that the master was silently standing there while he had his head raised up. He was looking at the ceiling even though their surroundings were extremely dark. Isaiah raised the orb and let it float above them so that it could at least illuminate the place a little bit. Ezio brought out five more orbs and let it float in different locations above to serve as their light.

Once the orbs were set up, they lit them up and were shocked at what they saw. Both of their eyes were wide in surprise, the scene above them made their bodies go numb even though they were clearly trembling. What the ceiling has were bones lined up like a decoration.

All of it was clearly human bones. Whoever displayed those bones was clearly sick and out of his mind. While their attention was still on the hanging bones on the ceiling, a hissing sound echoed in the mine. Several snakes appeared out of nowhere and crawled towards them.

"Here comes the serpent-woman you are talking about," Cygnus informed him with his eyes that were already looking towards his front.

The sound of something heavy being dragged on the ground sounded inside the place. It was followed by the appearance of the serpent spirit that had wounds all over her body. It's black skin and hard tail were something that Ezio and Isaiah couldn't forget.

Cygnus assessed the enemy and was surprised at how weak she was. He looked back at the two young men who came with him for a moment before returning his gaze to the hissing woman. Based on his observation, Isaiah should have easily dealt with it and Ezio also used his scimitar to inflict those injuries on it.

"I'm surprised that you weren't able to bring it down when the both of you are much stronger that it is," he gave the two a raised brow couple with an accusing look.

"That's because before we even face that thing, we were trapped in an illusion and in order to get out from it, we needed to use our strongest attack against our enemy before we were able to come through," Isaiah explained.

"Alright, then you should deal with that enemy on your own since you seem fine now. I hope you can defeat it now," Cygnus turned around and stepped towards them. He then sat down on the ground and waited for them to move.

"Why are you pushing us to fight it when you were supposed to be helping us defeat it?" Isaiah was surprised because of the man's words. The reason why he called him was because he was not sure if they could defeat it.

"I already told you that that serpent-woman is weaker than you and that you can deal with it. Why are you hesitating?" Cygnus was getting annoyed because of the man's blabbering. "Besides I'm waiting for something to come out once you finish off that enemy."

Cygnus did not say any more words after that and just looked at their direction. Since the master had no plan on stepping in, Ezio attacked first. He was in a good condition so there was no point in holding back against the enemy. He would give it his all.

He leapt in the air and used a gate to get close to the woman's face. Once he got enough distance, he slashed and successfully wounded the woman's face. The woman wriggled and used her tail to swat away Ezio. The young man narrowly escaped the tail and appeared beside Isaiah who was still indecisive.

"I was able to wound her. It would have been difficult for me to do that last night." Ezio spoke as he landed beside Isaiah.

He then disappeared again and appeared behind the woman with another slash from his scimitar. Isaiah followed up with a precise lightning shot towards the wound created by the scimitar. The serpent-woman shouted as she was shocked by the lightning bolt that entered the wound.

Black goo flowed out from the wound but the enemy still recovered and used her tail to attack the both of them. This time she did not limit her attacks as she opened her mouth and suddenly screamed towards Ezio who was still airborne after dodging the tail. He was not able to dodge the sound waves that were sent his way.

The force of that wave pushed him back and pinned him on the wall of the mine. Isaiah did not stay idle and summoned his lightning field which caught the enemy and electrocuted it. He also used it to pin down the enemy on the ground.

After that, Isaiah summoned several lightning spears that fell down from above and pierced the enemy's tails and prevented it from moving around too much. The woman let out a groan of pain at Isaiah had done to her tails. Ezio was finally freed after that attack so he moved once again immediately.

He continued to slash the woman as the enemy also continued to use sound waves to attack them. Isaiah did not stop from using his lightning to stop the enemy's movements. He was doing it slowly and thanks to Ezio this has become a very effective strategy. They needed to stop the enemy's attacks first and since she was using her tail to do that, they couldn't let it be free.

They rounded the whole place while attacking the woman endlessly and with Isaiah's signal, Ezio appeared above the woman's tail with his scimitar raised in the air and with all the strength that he could gather, Ezio brought it down.

His blade met with some friction and was not able to slice off that tail with one swing but he was able to make a cut on it. The serpent-woman became even more infuriated because of what they did. She forcefully pulled his tail from the lightning spears and used it to attack Ezio.

"If you won't be split then I will do it forcefully," Isaiah shouted. He clapped his hands in front of him and slowly pulled them apart to reveal a magic circle that does not often use.

He let the magic circle float on his palms before he released it above them. The enemy sensed that they were going to attack her with full force. She tried to slide away but Ezio stopped her by appearing in front of it and waved his weapon. The enemy was forced to step back a bit while Ezio continuously used his gate to close the distance between them.

Once the serpent was already below the magic circle that Isaiah prepared, he did not hesitate to bring out the lightning spear that he used in that dream. With its original version back, Isaiah became even more confident that this time they could defeat the enemy. The lightning spear fell down and precisely struck the serpent-woman.

The attack caused the whole mine to shake. Stones and dust started to fall from above and it made them cover their faces. The illuminating orbs lost their light for a moment because of the shaking and when their light returned, they saw the body of the serpent-woman disintegrating. They finally managed to defeat the enemy.

They were about to celebrate but when they looked towards Rigel's direction, it seemed like the world had stopped. There at the wall where he was lying, his body was pinned down by a lance that pierced through his chest. In shock, they forgot about their victory and were immediately on their way to help him when a strong gust of wind pushed them back.
