Sword Conquest 3 - Fight for the Future

Chapter Two: [Secrets Within]

"Boy, oh boy...Are we there yet?" Moaned the exhausted Matsuri as she moped around like a sloth. The three continued to walk until Hiori lifted his hand up, motioning the two to stop. She gave a frown look and looked around.

"We're here." As appealing as they would've sounded to Matsuri, she squinted her eyes at Hiori. 

"Here? It looks the same as every other damn building we've walked past!" Shouted Matsuri. Kasai told Matsuri to hush, Hiori walked up to a wall and dug his fingers right through it. A ripple effect appeared as if the wall itself was water, a white bright light shined when Hiori ripped open the invisible barrier. It broke down soon after, it left Matsuri speechless.

"Pfft, basic Reality Bending." Remarked Hiori, he walked down the stairs while holding the rail with caution, both Kasai and Matsuri hurried along. 

"Uh, Reality Bending?" Repeated Matsuri, Kasai tapped her shoulder to inform her.

"Well, from further research by the Blade Union or Union of blades...Whatever name they go by now...Everyone is labeled by their Spiritual Energy usage. There's about eight known so far...What you saw right now was an illusion placed within this world. Right Hiori?" Kasai didn't receive an answer by Hiori, all he got was nothing but groans.

"Illusions huh...And he saw right through it?" Kasai nodded at Matsuri's knowledge.

"Well, his dad was an assassin. Also, his dad does have superb senses. As do I, considering I inherited something from my mom. I would've thought you'd see it as well. You can sense things, right?" Asked Kasai, Matusri placed her head down with a disappointed demeanor.

"I can...Smell?" Everyone was silent by her ability.

"Neat. I can smell too." Moaned Hiori mocking Matsuri as left the steps.

"That's a lie. Otherwise, you would've smelled the amount shit coming from your mouth." Replied Matsuri, Kasai was hysterical after the comeback. But an ice spear appeared from the ground and was aimed at his throat.

"Damn bro I was only joking!" Pleaded Kasai however. It wasn't the insult that made Hiori behave like this. 

"...Nave." Said Hiori. The same rippling effect appeared from out of nowhere, transforming the area into another place. It was like a curtain revealing its true self. They ended up in an abandoned factory.

"Ah, Yuki's boy!" Shouted the bearded jolly man. Hiori's face remained expressionless.

"...You should work on your barrier. Something that careless can be picked up by the Fourth Wing." Stated Hiori walking around the factory with his hands in his pockets.

"Meh, not like they would travel in this ghetto ass part of town." Nave picked his ear having no concern with himself about Hiori's heed.

"Yeah, about that...We were kinda running away from some Winged Officers. They may be coming this way." Kasai twiddled his fingers. This alerted Nave right away.

"You gotta be kidding me...Fine. Hold up." Nave raised his hand in the air and a sudden white light emitted from it. The area was inverted, left and right, front and back. "Alrighty' that should keep them busy." Both Kasai and Matsuri were surprised by this astonishment.
