Part 1
A dimensional rift opens up at the edge of the Zanring Empire where Shio's army began storming out from
Shio,Plague doctor and Quantity flash past the army and as they reached the gates
Shio raises his hand haulting the army
Shio's cold eyes narrow as he stares a man dressed in a red,black striped layered kimono
On his knees wearing a creasent black red mask covering the upper half of his face
Long black ponytail tied hair
A blue sheath of a long sword by his left waist side
The man sips his green tea for a while before placing it down as he gets up then smiles
"Well you must be that forbidden God from the Chizen continent?"
The man stares in Quantity and Shenky's direction as his smile dissappears for a moment when staring at the two
He refocuses his attention back at Shio
"Well then what will it be so called forbidden god?"
Shio raises his left arm and gestures to move forward as his army charges
Sekero stares at the coming army before clutching his sword
He takes a deep breath
The area around everyone began to warp when Sekero slightly unsheaths his sword
Time stops completely as lines appear as grids across the army then the next moment
Blocks of the ground along with the army vanishes leaving Sekero and Shio alone
It goes quiet
Shio glances around
'A spatial teleport?' He thought
"Indeed it is a spatial teleport"
Sekero confirms
Shio stares at him with intrigue
"I can tell what your thinking through your mental and spiritual fluctuations"
Sekero remarks casually
Shio groans in dismay
"Oh don't be so sour about it...now"
Shio's body tenses as he gets into a fighting stance
The atmosphere became cold
"Draw a sword"
Sekero demands
Shio's expression twists in confusion
"Why should I?"
Suddenly shio sees a white,blue,orange and black lines infront of him as everything else goes dark
Sekero's now cold voice rang in his ears
"It's simple if you don't...I'll kill you right where you stand"
Shio sweats he snaps back to reailty
He forms a sword of destructive erasure energy
The sword violently vibrates
Sekero's aura reverts to its normal state as he sighs
"Well not the best but will do for now"
He extends his right arm out and raises a finger as he gestures to Shio to come at him
Shio's energy surges as he appears in front of Sekero with a burst of speed
He swings his blade downwards
"Far to imperfect"
Sekero uses his sheath to redirect Shio's attack to the ground
Shio glares at him and immediately changes the his attacks course sending it horizontally that Sekero effortlessly ducks before sweeping Shio of his legs
Shio lands on his back before he immediately performs a creasent slash that Sekero steps back to avoid
Sekero plant's his foot in Shio's face sliding his body backwards by a few meters
Before Shio could even compose himself Sekero was already behind him
He raises his sword high then slams his hilt on Shio's necks with a kick to the back that sends him into the air
Sekero yawns
Shio finally realizes his situation as his face shifts to that of shock
'His too fast I can't keep up'
"Correct indeed"
Shio stares in confusion when Sekero appears above him
His sheath held high
"You still have alot to learn"
Sekero's sheath descends apon Shio's stomach knocking the air out of him
Yet again launching Shio down like a meteor
A moment later shio crashes into the ground harshly
Sekero lands gracefully
Shio slowly gets up while murmuring to himself
Shio clutches his sword
'Focus and condense they energy into a solid form' He thought
A few seconds pass when the violent energy around Shio stabilized
Sekero claps his hands with clear contempt
"Congrats on completing the tutorial into the tutorial" he remarks
Shio paid him no mind as memories of Shadow using his ripples technique countless times flashes through his mind
When his sword lit up into dark flowing energy as if it was water
Shio raises it towards Sekero
"Lets begin the real fight now"
