The Epic of Leviathan - Chapter 443: The Kuoh Massacre (END)...
[Kuoh Academy, Kuoh Town]
Sona and her peerage couldn’t believe how easily Unohana killed Kokabiel. ‘One slash?? She killed a Cadre with just one slash?? And what is up with that insane speed?’ Sona questioned inside her mind. ‘This is bad… we need to act quickly’ Sona concluded internally as her head snapped towards her peerage members.
“Tsubaki! We need to act quickly. The fight has already started, we must get them away from that place” Sona commanded and all of her peerage members immediately nodded their heads in agreement.
All of them including Sona wanted to watch the fight but they simply couldn’t. They needed to get Rias and the rest of her peerage away from the battlefield. Wings popped out from behind their hands as the whole group flew towards Rias’s peerage.
‘At least, everyone’s attention is on Yachiru Unohana so there is a good chance that we wouldn’t get noticed’ Sona thought as she finally landed behind Rias’s group. Sona immediately kneeled down beside her childhood friend who seemed to be grieving her peerage member.
Sona quickly moved and grabbed both Rias and one of Issei Hyoudou’s hands. Before Rias could even protest, Rias found herself in the air. Rias looked up and her eyes landed on Sona. Rias was still crying, her eyes were bloodshot due to continuous crying.
Sona gently placed Rias and Issei on the roof. Rias immediately pulled Issei’s dead body in her arms. Sona felt really relieved as the rest of her peerage arrived with the rest of Rias’s peerage and two Exorcists. As soon as they arrived all of them gathered around Rias.
“Sona… they took him away from me…” Rias said in between her sobs. Sona didn’t look towards her peerage as she was busy staring towards the battlefield.
“At least, he has been avenged” Sona mumbled and for the first time Rias’s peerage looked up towards the battlefield and they were shocked to see that Kokabiel was already dead and Unohana just finished melting one of the three leaders of the Old Satan Faction.
“Nooo!!!” Katerea Leviathan exclaimed loudly. She was almost healed right now.
“You are going to pay for that” Shalba said while gritting his teeth. His eyes were filled with hatred and anger. “Everyone, attack her!!!” Shalba ordered and one by one launched attacks towards Unohana.
Unohana simply stared towards the approaching attacks with clear disinterest in her eyes. Unohana slowly raised her free hand towards the approaching attacks. “Dark Vortex” a giant vortex appeared in front of Unohana and sucked in all the attacks. Moments later, the vortex dispersed.
Everyone gulped and looked around with confused looks on their faces. Even Shalba Beelzebub and Katerea Leviathan didn’t know what to say, they simply looked towards each other. Unohana lowered her hand and her menacing and gloomy eyes focused on the forms Shalba Beelzebub and Katerea Leviathan.
Unohana had noticed that the cheap villain from the Chinese novel she had just melted a few seconds ago had some sort of external power source just like the two Devils standing in front of her. ‘It is clear that they can’t heal themselves if they die instantly’ Unohana concluded internally in a dismissive manner.
“Was that the best all of you could do?” Unohana asked in a mocking tone. A few started to mumble but nobody dared to answer her loudly. “How unimpressive…” Unohana muttered in a disappointed tone and disappeared from her spot.
Everyone shuddered in fear but Shalba was the one who was affected the most as he was the one who Unohana had decided to attack. Unohana slashed her Zanpakutou diagonally, cutting off Shalba’s left arm before his body could even react. He had noticed Unohana’s arrival but that didn’t mean that he was fast enough to react to her attack.
“Arghhh!!” Shalba screamed at the top of his lungs as the pain finally registered in his mind. The pain was unbearable as his wound started to melt, inflicting even more damage. Shalba tried to back away but Unohana swung her Zanpakutou vertically separating Shalba’s lower body from his upper. Shalba stared in disbelief as he started to fall down.
“You bitch!!” Before Unohana could deal the final blow, Katerea Leviathan lunged towards Unohana with elongated limbs. Unohana stared at the monstrous-looking woman with disinterest in her eyes.
Katerea Leviathan was also baring her chest, due to Unohana’s previous attack, her dress was melted away revealing her more than impressive pair of knockers. It would have been a beautiful sight if she didn’t look like a monster. Unohana simply swung down her Zanpakutou beheading the insane woman.
“Pathetic!” Unohana said in disdain looking towards the still twitching body of Katerea Leviathan which was also missing the head. Unohana’s gaze moved towards the head of Katerea Leviathan, a twisted look of horror and disbelief was etched on the woman’s face.
All of a sudden Unohana’s head snapped towards the place where Shalba’s upper body should have been lying around but it was gone… Only small traces of purple mist were left behind in place of the body. Unohana’s eyes narrowed at the spot, somehow the coward had successfully escaped.
The talisman Unohana had used before starting the fight contained Hela’s Magic. Hela was the one who had given her that talisman. Unlike Hela, Unohana couldn’t stop someone from activating Teleportation Circles so this is how Unohana was going to get around the problem. Hela had mentioned that this wasn’t an absolute solution as someone with Space Manipulation powers could still escape.
‘Purple mist…’ clearly remembered the colour and someone was going to pay dearly in the future. She was going to kill anyone related to the person who had dared to interfere. Unohana was furious but her eyes slowly focused on the insignificant group of Devils who were still trapped in here, with her waiting to die.
‘Yes, all of them are going to be a nice outlet to vent my anger’ Unohana thought as her haori disappeared into thin black mist. A blade of darkness formed in her free hand as she lunged towards the thousands of scared Devils. Most of them were trying to escape but none of them succeeded. Some of them had already given up hope as they were just waiting to be killed.
Unohana started to mercilessly butcher the Devils. No matter if they were men or women, she also didn’t bother to spare anyone young or old. All of them were going to die and that was it… after a few seconds, Unohana started to cackle in mad glee as she continued to massacre the Devils belonging to the Old Satan Faction.
Sona and everyone present on the roof kept watching the scene with grim looks on their faces. They have never witnessed such a scene of carnage… this was the first time reality smacked on their faces. Until now, they have been having it relatively easy with any problems but it was pretty clear that everything has changed.
“She should have saved Issei… with so much power it could have been easy for her” Rias said bitterly as she glared towards the woman who was currently butchering the Devils in utter glee.
Sona simply scoffed after hearing Rias’s words. “Don’t blame her Rias, Issei Hyoudou’s death is on you and your peerage” Sona said in irritation. Everyone in Rias’s peerage glared at the girl but she wasn’t bothered by their glares. Even some from Sona’s own peerage were surprised after hearing such words from their King.
“We aren’t living in a fantasy world, Rias. What you and I did today is completely stupid… we risked our lives and everyone in our peerage. We came here to fight a Cadre, do you even know what a Cadre is?” Sona questioned heatedly and Rias could simply stare at her childhood friend with clear disbelief in her eyes.
“We were simply asking to die… I am done with risking my peerage unnecessarily. If you are going to blame Yachiru Unohana then you should take a look in the mirror before doing something like that. She had been accompanying us throughout the whole time”
“Did you ask for her opinion before rushing into the school trying to be a Hero? I am insulting the death of Issei Hyoudou, don’t get me wrong… I am simply asking you to look at yourself before pointing fingers towards the others” Sona finished as she stared towards the bloodied field. Unohana was almost done with the slaughter.
“This is reality… and reality is much crueller than any of us had imagined” Sona said in a blank tone. Today, she had learned a lot.
First, power is an undeniable factor, no matter how smart or intelligent you are, you simply cannot beat someone with overwhelming strength. Things like that only happen in storybooks and fantasy.
Second, having a Devil lineage doesn’t mean shit in front of someone like Yachiru Unohana or Hela. They would simply massacre you if they wish. Raw power is an undeniable factor.
Third, you need to be responsible. You simply can’t rush into a situation recklessly. By doing something like that not only you are risking your own life but you are also risking everyone on your peerage…
After a few moments, several Magical Circles belonging to Gremory Clan and Sitri Clan started to appear around the School. Moments later, Sirzechs Lucifer and Serafall Leviathan appeared on the battlefield along with a few soldiers.
All of them froze in horror when their eyes landed on the bloodied field. It has almost turned into a lake of blood filled with dismembered bodies. Everyone shuddered as their eyes landed on Yachiru Unohana who was killing off a few last stragglers while cruelly laughing at their pathetic efforts.
The whole group gulped loudly in fear as Serafall and Sirzechs could only watch the whole scene with grim looks on their faces. As of now none of them knew this, but in the future, this event was going to be referred to as ‘The Kuoh Massacre’…
