War Grounds 64 Awakening

"Staff of Linfa? Cool!" Al grinned as he surveyed the silver-stream of staff in his hand. It was finally the good news that he has been waiting for.

[ Do you want to switch to Autopilot Mode? ] SARS asked.

"Nah." Al could not keep himself from smiling. He estimated that it would take at least fifteen seconds for the two demon samurais to reach him. "Tell me more about this staff."

[ This process is called Awakening, which should only be available in Level 200 Quests. However, I have managed to discover this hidden feature. All you need to do is cite the spiel to activate it. ]

"Nice! Nice! So, what's the spiel?" In the face of death, Al excitedly asked.

"What's wrong with him? Why is he smiling?" Dreaming Blade was confused as he continued his way towards Al, skipping on the sword spikes to increase his speed.

"What else would you do if you're about to be helplessly killed?" Battousai chuckled.

[ The spiel is a bit long. Are you sure that you could memorise it? ] SARS was a bit doubtful.

( -_- ) "Of course!" Al rolled his eyes.

[ Ok. Whirl your staff and cite these verses. ]

Oh, Linfa

Protector of the Sleeping Forest

Tricked by the Demoness Nebula

Show your disgust, release a cloud of dust!

Al was a bit hesitant at first as he expected a very long line and complicated rituals. Grateful that it was simple, he grinned as he religiously followed; the weapon in his hand quickly spun while he recited the lines. Suddenly, the staff glowed with bright green energy.

The silver blood started to disappear, revealing a brown wooden staff engraved with carvings of golden leaves and vines. Both of its ends were gilded in bra.s.s.

It was the real Staff of Linfa!

"Stop!" Battousai suddenly warned his ally as he halted his steps. He saw the changes in Udil's hand, and he felt the abrupt change in the atmosphere. It was the feeling of the calm before the storm.

"Huh?" Dreaming Blade's demonic purple face was confused.

The huge branches of the enormous tree on top of the mini-hill suddenly swayed, but there was no wind.

"Woah! Awesome!" Al marvelled at the new weapon in his hand. He glanced a look at the two demon samurais who were still quite a few distances from him.

[ Since, we've activated this feature early on, the power of the awakening will depend on your character's attributes and your personal mental abilities. The Hidden Weapon Skill is called Eye of the Storm. It allows you to control objects on the battlefield. Do I still need to guide you step-by-step on how to win this match? ] SARS advised.

"Nah. Seat back and relax." Al grinned as he surveyed the numerous sword spikes on the mossy ground. The majority of the damage in his HP came from these things. Now, it's time to use them for his benefit.

Al exhaled deeply. Dreaming Blade and Battousai were slowly making their way towards him. He closed his eyes as he channelled all the power inside of him; the boy imagined a brewing storm in the skies.

Eye of the Storm!

Green wisps of energy started to surface from the mossy ground where Udil was standing.

"How many skills does he have?" Battousai gritted his teeth. The two of them had no choice as they were close-combatants. "It's two versus one! Charge, Dreaming Blade! I'll do the first Reverse Harakiri!"

The looming figure of the enormous tree kept on swaying as the green vapours from the ground kept on rising. These handfuls of green smoke started to form a cloud in the air.

"Quick! It's a channelling skill! Intercept him!" Battousai ordered.

"Not good. My Yabusame is still in cooldown." Dreaming Blade responded.

Udil finally opened his eyes. He was expecting to see a gloomy sky filled with flashes of lightning and swirling leaves carried by violent winds. However, what greeted him was a cute dark green c.u.mulonimbus cloud in the shape of a circle, thrice the size of a basketball.

[ Haha. Al Gentrix So Strong is so weak. ] SARS' robotic emoticon bursted into a series of laughter.

"Eh?! What the heck?!" Al was embarra.s.sed.

Sensing that something was wrong with the spell of his opponent, Battousai grinned. 'This b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He was just buying some time!' The Demon Samurai muttered a curse.

"Go all out! That guy's just bluffing. Time to end this! Our other members are waiting for us." Battousai once again ordered.

"Are you sure?" However, Dreaming Blade was a bit doubtful as he kept on glancing over the seemingly harmless ball of dark green cloud.

"Yup! Want to bet your girlfriend? It would be me who gets to kill him with Reverse-Harakiri!" Battousai confidently offered. Udil was just a few body units away from him.

"d.a.m.n you! I don't have a girlfriend!" Dreaming Blade grinned as he continued to increase his pace; he was trailing behind Battousai.

"SARS! Are you trying to play some tricks on me? Today's match is at stake here!" Al could not believe what was happening. All those hypes went to nothing.

Battousai finally reached Udil; he was floating in the air as he leapt. "How dare you trick us! Now let me cut that belly of yours!"

Reverse Harakiri!

The pair of katanas is Battousai Hands glowed in black and red energies. His demonic blue eyes glinted with killing-intent as he focused on Udil's abdomen.

"Die!" Battousai shouted.

Brrrrr.

Time seemed to slow down as the swords on the mossy ground started to rattle.

It was too late for Battousai to cancel his skill; he could hear the faint warning of Dreaming Blade.

The dark green cloud on the sky above started to spin. A violent wind was brewing, dragging with it the numerous green and yellow leaves of the enormous tree.

One-by-one, the sword spikes on the mossy ground started to rise.

[ I never said that it was not sufficient. It's just that under your control, the commencement of the skill is just too slow. If you were facing quicker opponents, you've been long dead already. ] SARS clarified.
