There were very few things that triggered Valor, he never liked being a man to be frustrated over small incidents, but there were three things that couldn't be forgiven, harming or killing family, friends, and innocent children. These are very simple ideals for a man with many alters.
"Pathetic, you are a man capable of harming grown men and yet you use your power to hurt young children..." Valor spoke to the mysterious man in front of him.
Oh, he is fucking dead!
Shall we say prayers for this unfortunate man?
"Pathetic? Who are you to be speaking to me like that? Doesn't matter, I'll just kill you too..." The man dropped Gris's father and drew out his sword.
"A sword? I will beat you with something better..." Using his left hand, the angered Imp breaks off a part of the wall and prepares to use it as a sword.
"Our wall!" Gris's panics at the destruction of his home.
"Quite arguing, I am going to save you... again..."
"You seem confident, for a monster not knowing which group I belong to." The man rushed at Valor and swung his blade from the right.
"Let me guess, the Black Blossom?" Valor ducked down and slammed his weapon into the stomach of the man.
"Agh!" The man grunted in pain. "You bastard!" Gaining his balance, he swings his sword with swiftness and precision, forcing Valor to focus on dodging.
"You are more skillful than you look, I will admit that!" The imp dodges his furry of slashes."But your skills are still lacking!" As the man swung his blade from above, Valor parried it with the wooden shard and used his tail to knock the man back. "Refined Slash" Curling his foot back and blitzes towards him, slashing the muscles in his thighs.
"AAAGGH! You-!" His leg muscles are slashed, and the man falls to the ground. "H-How... is this... possible!"
"It is simple numbskull! You might have had a better weapon, but you are looking at a man with nearly sixty years of sword skills I can use a variety of weapons to near perfection!" Valor bragged.
"Now you're just bragging..." Gris added.
"Oh shut it, boy, I just saved your life!" Valor yelled at Gris.
"Fair enough..."
"Now back to where we were..." Valor turns to the man again and sees his attempt to crawl away. "Where the hell are you going!" He stabs the man's hand with his wooden shard.
"Agh!" More screams of pain echo from the man.
"Where did you think you were going..." Valor kneels and goes face to face with the nameless man.
"I-I wasn't going anywhere! Don't kill me!" The man begged for his life.
"How about you answer some of my questions first, what is your name?" Valor asked but didn't care.
"It's Howard Terence!"
"Well Howard, would you like to tell me where is the main base of Black Blossom? I just so happen to be very pissed at their current protocols..." The monstrous Imp grabbed Howard by the hair.
"I-I don't know!"
"Do not know or will not tell?" Valor sensed that he was telling the truth, but even a simple man can tell a good lie.
He is useless! Kill him!
Not yet! He might know some other things!
Fine...
"It's the truth! I'm a low-ranking member, I only know the place where I get my commissions!" Howard was telling the truth, Valor could tell now.
"Then where is it, you bastard..." Valor thought he could track down the leader of Black Blossom because at this point he's sick of this group.
"I take me commissions at the local bar, the Goblin's Chamber!" Perfect, valor now had a place to start.
"Great, you have been very useful!" Valor grabs the terrified man, rips out the wooden shard from his hand, and drags him outside.
"What are you doing?! Where are you taking me!?" Howard tried to get out of Valor's grip.
Hah! We are going to slaughter him!
Michael, you are like a savage animal!
Shut up you fucker!
"A dead man should not be talking..." Valor threw Howard away from the house and into a nearby ditch. "This should be good enough to be your grave..."
"My grave! No please don't- agh-!" The wooden shard impales Howard's throat and he suffocates in his blood.
"What a pathetic bastard..." Valor gives mercy and kicks Howard's head, caving in his skull, and killing him immediately. "Hah! What a messy end!" He walks back into Gris's house, making sure to wipe all the blood off of himself. "Now Gris, your problem has been dealt with!"
"W-What! Did you-!" Gris's question was immediately answered.
"Yes, I did! So you better get those medical herbs ready!" Valor waves his bloody right arm once again in Gris's face.
"Fine..." Gris helps his passed-out father up and goes to grab the herbs he collected.
"So why was your family targeted by the Black Blossom?"
"We have debt to them..." Gris rubbed the medical herbs onto Valor's arm. "My father borrowed money from them because we barely had any money for food, but when he tried to pay them back, they wanted to charge us 10 times the price!" Gris gripped a roll of bandages, squeezing it.
"They are bastards, so how is your father and sister now?"
"My father is passed out and my sis...she's not mentally well after seeing the state of our father..." Gris told the truth, his father was greatly injured by the man from Black Blossom and his sister. She was definitely worse, she ran away to her room, and she was definitely traumatized from the scene of her father being beaten half to death.
"Oh do not fret, I Valor, will make sure Black Blossom is going to pay for the sins of hurting your family and the sin of fucking around with me!" Valor pointed at himself with his thumb.
"Thank you... Valor..." Gris felt himself being at ease with Valor, even though at this point he could be considered a serial killer.
"Gris, since the sun is still out how about we both visit the bar!" Valor stood up after Gris finished bandaging his right arm.
"We?! What am I going to do!? I'm not a fighter" Gris argued with Valor.
"I know you are no fighter, but you know the area, so you will be my guide once again!" Valor picked Gris up and headed out, but before that, Valor grabbed the sword belonging to Howard from the ground. "Onwards to kill some bastards!" He pointed the sword into the air like he was a musketeer.
Yes! Let us burn Black Blossom to the ground!
Maybe we will be able to develop our strength!
We better! I want to use Aura and Magic!
