CHAPTER 4 - THE CONSOLIDATION -PART I-
This part focuses on two Golden-Knights, they are Toma and Enzo. They both received a mission from the Elders to retrieve one of the relics. This is very secret mission. Why? Because the relics (in part 1), is the disaster itself when the both relics puts together to open the portal that not supposed to be open. But since then, the both relics suddenly disappeared in centuries, just like they never exist. No one knows where they are. Both sides either ECG or terrors, trying so hard to find them, however no tracks of them, as if they were swallowed by the earth. Now the relics was suddenly appears again. If the both relics put together will open the portal, which is the main portal that connected to the "Beyond-Prison" where the King was captivated. But nowadays, the Elders received the message from their spy that they found the both relics' location even though it is still a rumor. However, the Elders don't want to take the risk, so they secretly send the Golden-Knight members to investigate it if the rumor is real. They don't want the relics to fall into the terrors hand, that will be a disaster again. Since both relics are located in different continents, one is somewhere around South-america and another one is somewhere around Europe. So Toma and Enzo were sent to south-america, while Tenya and Renki were sent to Europe. This story begins as Toma and Enzo arrive in a small village of which most of the residents are farmers and ranchers. Since this village is quite remote, the people there are unsociable and very "quiet-type" person. Toma and Enzo are very confused about how to communicate with them since they are not welcome too. So, they have no choice but to stay at a motel that located not far from that village. They talked to the motel staff there about the village, but they can't provide any detailed information either. Most of the employees are from a neighborhood town across the end of the road from that village, so not very familiar to the local people who live there. They also mention it was true that people in that village are unsociable, and it is very hard to accept people from outside. However, there is a cleaning staff who worked in this motel that eventually came from that village. His name is Remus. So Toma and Enzo try to communicate with Remus, but just like his people, he doesn't like to talk to strangers and seems to avoid them. Toma somehow realized Remus might not be so hard to get closer than his people. At least, he still can speak, it's just not talking too much and something seems to prevent him from socializing with people outside the village. So, Toma and Enzo must figure out a way to make Remus open his mouth. One night, when Enzo was out of his room to get some drinks, he saw Remus was sneaking around and his behavior was absolutely weird. So, he decided to follow Remus to see what that guy's up to. At the end of the valley, outside the motel, Remus seems to be talking to someone but Enzo can't see the interlocutor's face clearly. It was dark outside in the valley and also had very little lighting. However, Enzo can sense the aura of terror coming from that mystery man. Just a moment later, before Enzo decides to confront the man, Remus, who is talking with that mystery man, starts arguing and that mysterious man grabs remus' neck with one hand and lifts him up very easily. Enzo immediately confronts that man without hesitating anymore. Those two fights bare hands very harshly. Enzo realized the mysterious man was an A-rank terror after exchanging a few moves with him. when Enzo tries to transform, but the mysterious man has fled away and disappears into the mist. Maybe the mysterious man also realized Enzo was somehow a Knight and doesn't want to blow up his identity yet, so he prefers to retreat. After that man is gone, Enzo tries to talk with Remus about what happened and ask him if he knew that mysterious man. Remus told Enzo that he knew that man (not human but terror), his name is Cassius. Remus also knew that Enzo wasn't a particular human either after he saw the scene of Enzo fighting with Cassius. Enzo can't deny it and tells Remus that he and Toma are the ECG Knights. After hearing that, Remus was so surprised. So, he told Enzo to meet him tomorrow night at the inventory room of this motel, along with Toma. Enzo agreed. Somewhere in the village, the mysterious man named Cassius, also returned to his place and told his leader about what happened and it seems like some ECG Knights are here to interfere too. So, they must act quickly before the Knights, the Leader said. That night, Enzo brought Toma to meet Remus at the place they had agreed on and of course, Enzo has also told everything to Toma about what happened last night (including the guy named Cassius). Remus without hesitating, starting to tell the story of his village. He said Cassius and his gang came to his village about 3 years ago. However, he is not the Leader. The leader of the gang is called "Brison". At first, they only came to do business with the villagers here who had a farm and ranch. Of course, this is only a decoy. Their main goal is to get the relic. It just, they still don't know which family in this village held the relic. Slowly, they turned the Chief-village into their companion (into "terror") so, it would be easy for them to locate the relic if they had a helper from the inside. In the first year of their arrival, they helped the farmers and the ranchers a lot by distributing and selling to the bigger city by opening some kind of small logistic company there. The villagers' life is starting to get better and better, including Remus' family too. That's why since then, Remus started working for them and he also slowly became good friends with Cassius. Who knows, he got a chance to visit a big city when the goods from the village were transported, so he can go with them. For the record, at that time, Cassius was still a human being since the first time he and the Brison's gang arrived in that village. However, this whole thing started to change slowly in the second year after they found out it was Remus' family who kept the relic. They tried so many times to persuade Remus' father to hand over the relic but he refused. And one day, they try to persuade one more time for the last time, if Remus' father still refuses, then they will use force to take it. By that means, they will consume his father. Once the black-spirit becomes his father then he will have the memories of his father and where he kept the relic. Unfortunately, Remus' father wasn't stupid, he realized something like this will definitely come, so he already passed the relic to Remus and let his son keep it. One last thing, his father also told Remus, if anything happens to him, don't do anything foolish, just skip the village and run as far as Remus can. At that time, Remus still didn't know what his father meant until his father got killed. One night, he witnessed when his father got consumed by the Brison and his gang when they invited his father for a feast. Remus was still mourning his father's death and quickly ran over his home to take the relic and run away from the village. But on his way, he thinks a lot. Even his father told him to run as far as he can, but inside his heart, the feeling of revenge still haunted him. So, he changed his mind to stay low but still in the village range. That's why he finally ended up working at this motel. However, the Brison and his gang were also not idiots, and Remus doesn't know that once you hook up with a terror, they will get your scent, and not to mention they have his father's memories too. Wherever you go, you can't run away from them. That's why Remus was so easily detected when he worked in that motel. Then Brison sent Cassius to look for Remus and persuade him (since they're buddies). They knew Remus had taken the relic with him. Not long after, Cassius turned into a terror, and nobody knows what that means (since he was still human when he was with them until they arrived at the village). Even so, Cassius still remembers the friendship between him and Remus. That's why he doesn't want to hurt Remus after visiting a few times, to let him hand over the relic on his own will. Of course, Remus won't be that easy to give up the relic to them, because they killed his father. That's why the last time Cassius met Remus, his patience was at its limit so he threatened Remus to hand over the relic, if not Brison and others will come to hunt Remus. Luckily, Enzo was there and helped Remus to drive Cassius away. After being persuaded by Enzo and Toma, Remus has no choice but to cooperate with them both. He decided to bring them to sneak into the village. However, their tracks were already detected by Brison and gang since they stepped into the village, Enzo and Toma realized something was not right. The village was so quiet and silent at the same time. There are no villagers walking around and the village is just like a haunted village in the movie. So they walk slowly and cautious to look around the village. They are just right, suddenly some terrors come from nowhere and run towards to attack them blindly. There are some D-rank and C-rank terrors. Toma and Enzo have no choice but to put them down into eternal sleeps. Just finished what they do, another bunch of terrors appears and attacks them as well, like it never ends. There is no way to continue like this, because the terrors keep appearing again and again, no matter how many they have subdued. Remus took them to run away and hide in his house temporarily. At his house's barn, there is a basement there. It used to be a warehouse, but as time went by, Remus' father never used it anymore and became abandoned. When Remus was still a kid, he used to play in the basement. This is the first time he entered the basement after so long ago. Toma asks Remus about his parents, Remus said his mother passed away a few years ago and he has one older brother. But his brother ran away from home to work in a big city. His brother is very seldom to come home. Now this house is lived by him alone after his father's death. Toma and Enzo promised him that they will take revenge on his behalf. A night has come, the terrors seem like they can't find them, so Toma and Enzo suggested Remus to stay in this basement while they're going to meet Brison and gang. Remus has drawn a simple map of the village for them, so they can find Brison and the gang's location. After they leave, nobody is around and no terrors are attacking them anymore. Toma and Enzo found it a little suspicious, so they were very cautious to engage. A moment later, not far from the Brison and gang's location, Toma and Enzo are already welcomed by them. It seems like they were waiting for Toma and Enzo to come for them.
Brison: "Well, well... take a look at our VIP guest. An honor for us, to be visited by the Knights."
Toma: "You are... Brison?"
Brison: "Uhm... seems like Remus has introduced me to you guys, isn't he?"
Enzo: "I guess we have a welcome party here, Toma..."
Toma: "Yeah... a big one actually."
Brison: "Look... I don't care what your business here is, but I will make a deal with you. If you guys hand over Remus to me, then I pretend we never met. What do you think?"
Toma: "Oh, you mean if we hand over Remus to you, then you will let us go, is it?"
Brison: "That's right...!! You know...I like talking to smart people. Bwahahaha..."
Enzo: "How about we say... no???"
Brison: "Oh, come on... don't make it so hard, bud. You can see... right? Just the two of you... what can you do to us? Hehe..."
Toma: "Listen... Having more people doesn't mean you will win, you know that?"
Brison: "Eerrr... (angry mode-on), seems like talking is pointless... if this is what you want, then I grant it... Finish them....!!!"
Suddenly three people charge towards Toma and Enzo while they change into terrors. They are B-rank. A fight between them immediately broke out. Without transform, Toma and Enzo can quite easily beat the three B-rank terrors but they are not dead yet. Then another two, one of them is Cassius, turned into A-rank terrors and attacked Toma and Enzo afterwards. This time they have to transform, if not they will not survive the night. Suddenly, Toma and Enzo transform into Golden-Knight Osugi and Aogi. Brison was shocked when he saw both of them changing into the shining armor, he immediately knew that his enemy was not a simple Knight. So, without hesitating, he changed into S-rank terror and joined the fights too.
S-rank Brison: "Hyaahhh..."
Osugi: "Huh?? Triinnggg... oucchhh..." (block the attack and get pushed back), damn you...!!! Hyaahhh, swinnggg..."
S-rank Brison: "Clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg..."
Osugi: "Clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg..."
A-rank Cassius: "Eat this...!!! Hyaahhh, swinnggg..."
Osugi: "Huh?? Trinnggg..." (block the attack),
S-rank Brison: "Hyaahhh, swinngg... szasshhh..."
Osugi: "Argghhh..." (got slash from the back),
Meanwhile, Aogi is also fighting with one A-rank terror and the other three B-rank. He was kept busy by those terrors.
A-rank 2: "Hyaahhh, clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg..."
Aogi: "Clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg..."
B-ranks: "Clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg..."
Aogi: "Triinnggg... clannggg... trinnggg... clannggg... oucchhh..." (block the attack while keep moving backward),
Aogi knows Osugi is in trouble and himself also struggling. He knew he must act quickly to defeat them so he can go to help Osugi.
Aogi: "Hyaahhh... swinnggg..."
A-rank 2: "Clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg..."
Aogi: "Clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg... briizzz, swinnggg... szasshhh..." (elemental slash),
A-rank 2: "Arrgghhh..." (knock back),
3 B-ranks: "Hyaahhh, swinnggg..."
Aogi: "Huh? Triinnggg... briizzz, swinnggg... szasshhh..." (elemental slash with one rotation),
3 B-ranks: "Argghhh..." (knocking back),
Aogi: "Now... huaahhh... (jump in the air), Hyōkan-Tōshōzan (FreezingCold-FrostBite Slash), swinnggg..."
A-rank 2: "Nooo..... Ka-boom... (explosion), arrrggghhhh....!!! fuuzzz..." (dead and turn into ash),
3 B-ranks: "Wha-whaaatt??? Hyaahhh, swinnggg... syuufff..." (thrust toward Aogi three of them),
Aogi: "Huh?? Swinnggg... Briizzz, thuuddd..." (stab sword on the ground with elemental strike),
3 B-ranks: "Oucchh..." (push backward),
Aogi: "Hyaahhh... Hyōkan-Yatōzan (FreezingCold-ArrowFrost Slash), swinnggg..."
3 B-ranks: "Ka-boom... (explosion), arrggghhh...."
After defeating them, Aogi immediately goes to assist Osugi who is struggling against the s-rank Brison and A-rank Cassius.
A-rank Cassius: "Hyaahhh... swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg..."
Osugi: "Swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg..."
S-rank Brison: "Hyaahhh, syuuhhh..." (threw a blade at Osugi),
Osugi: "Huh!! Trinnggg..."
A-rank Cassius: "Hyaahhh, swinnggg... szasshhh..."
Osugi: "argghhh..."
When Osugi gets a strike from A-rank Cassius, S-rank Brison tries to take advantage of his negligence, however...
Aogi: "Hyōkan-Tōshōzan (FreezingCold-FrostBite Slash), swinnggg..."
S-rank Brison: "Huh?? Trinnggg... Boom... (knocked back by the explosion), damn you!!!" (kneel down on the ground and hurt),
S-rank Brison attacks failed when Aogi made a sudden move blow at him and he was forced to knock back. So, A-rank Cassius tried to interfere by attacking Aogi.
A-rank Cassius: "Hyaahhh, swinnggg, szuufff..." (strike with energy wave to Aogi),
Aogi: "Trinnggg... Boom... oucchhh..." (knock back with few steps backward),
Osugi: "Plasshhh, swinnggg... szasshhh... " (elemental water strike),
A-rank Cassius: "Arrgghhh..."
Aogi: "Swinnggg... clannggg... swinnggg... clannggg..."
S-rank Brison: "Eat this...!! swinnggg, szuufff..." (strikes with energy wave to Osugi),
Aogi: "Hyaahhh... briizzz, swinnggg..." (elemental ice strike),
Boom... (explosion), two strikes clash each other causing a small explosion.
Osugi: "Enzo, let's end this with our combined strike..."
Aogi: "All right, let's do it..!!"
Osugiand Aogi use their combined blow called "HyōSui-Kōryūhazan (FrozenWater-FreezingStream Crush Slash) to hit on S-rankBrison, however the A-rankCassius immediately covers for him. The strikeimmediately took A-rank Cassius' life away. Meanwhile, S-rank Brison tried to run away afterhe saw his fellow turned into dust, but Osugiand Aogi didn't give him a chance. Theyeach use their own moves to strike with their usual signature blow called SuiHa-Seiryūzan(WaterBreak-StarStream Slash) and Hyōkan-Tōshōzan (FreezingCold-FrostBiteSlash). These two blows strike at thesame time at S-rank Brison when he tries to flee. That's how the Brison's life ends in the hands of Golden-Knight Osugi and Aogi. After the battle's end, the remaining terrors were eliminated too. Turns out, those terrors arethe villagers that have been turned by the Brisonand gang. There is no way to save them, except bring them down to the "Nether-Land". Although the village hasbeen damaged, but slowly they recover fromtime to time and the relic itself, Remus gaveit to Toma and Enzo to keep it in ECG.
