Phase 16: Black Bee

*****


Sera's POV


We followed Cindy as she ran towards the control room. When she was 3 meters away from the door, it opened without us touching it. As we entered, the door closed and the room lit up.


"Follow me." Cindy then pointed towards the big screen so we walked towards it. When we arrived, Cindy typed something in the laser keyboard and an old man wearing a cloak suddenly appeared. I couldn't see his face clearly so we just listened to his voice.


"Hello, I am your headmaster, if you still remember me." He laughed lightly.


"Why did you call us, Master Shenji?" Rei asked formally


"I thought his name was Nathan?" I asked


Master Shenji looked at me and smiled."Well dear, we masters usually change our name to hide our identity in the Nen world. Nathan is my real name while Shenji is my Code name. You'll know it more when you become like me." After those sentences, his face became serious and his voice became strict and stern.


"I need Sera and Rei to spy the hideout of the Huntresa tribes. The other members left should stay and guard the house because Black Bee's servants might attack." He continued.


"Black bee?" Cindy asked while she typed something in the keyboard.


"Yes, she is the current leader of the Huntresa tribe and that is why you need to spy on them, in order for us to know their real motive. You have 3 days to prepare. Cherish it okay? Bye." After he said bye, his image dissapeared and we looked at each other.


"Good luck." Cindy smiled as she pressed a red button. Another set of keyboards appeared.


"Well, I think I'm gonna start refining the house." Cindy started to type in commands. We went of the control room and went back to the training room.


As I entered, I noticed that Mel was held by in the air with a stone tower. I moved closer to him but the stone tower started to move. I looked at him and my eyes widened when I saw him get sucked on the stone.


He went out of the stone tower and it crumbled. When he saw me he suddenly stood straight and scratched his head.


"I'm sorry, I didn't see you there."


I smiled lightly in reply to his reaction.


"It's okay. So, should we continue?" I asked. He nodded lightly and he pointed the table.


I went near it and a chair appeared so I sat on it.


"Let's start."


??? POV


I walked towards the dark hallway, being greeted by bows and polite words.


As I walked towards a double door, the guards suddenly blocked my way which caused me to raise one eyebrow up.


"Our Highness is calling me." I said calmly as I ordered them to move out of the way.


As I stepped in, the torch lights around the room, flickered different colors, red,blue,orange,,green and a lot of more colors.


"Your 12 seconds late."She suddenly exclaimed.


"I'm sorry your majesty." I kneeled politely as I kept my head down.


"Well, it doesn't matter now. I have a new quest for you." She said with an angelic voice.


I smirked and looked up. My thoughts ran wild and I became excited.


"What kind of quest your highness?" Despite my excitement, I tried to keep a straight face.


"Eliminate people that are suspicious and wanting to spy on us." She laughed evily in a silent tone.


"Yes your majesty." I stood up and walked out of the room.


Taste my bare strength puny humans.


Sera's POV


I went out of the bathroom and I noticed that it was the day for us to spy on the tribe.  I just woke up and I need to eat. I dried my hair and went straight to the kitchen. To my surprise, when I went in, I saw a person that was half naked, his bareback gleaming with wet beads.


I looked at his hair and I noticed it was Rei. He looked behind me and I can't help to look at his toned chest and his perfectly fit body.


⊙﹏⊙!!!!


I shaked my head and made a straight face. God I shouldn't take advantage.


"Good Morning." I smiled cheerfully as I went to the stove and placed the ingredients of the instant noodles.


"Morning." He said coldly. I noticed him smirking as he used his hand to brush off his blood red hair. I just looked at the pan and removed the cooked noodles. As I felt his presence was already gone, I sighed in relief and placed the noodles on the table. I got some and started to eat. After eating, I washed some of the plates and went straight to my room.


We are going to spy on the Northern part of Saleria. For the North, it is Asklar, where we are headed, South is Cyro where the ice village is located, West is Kulsom, where the deserts are and lastly is the East, where Saleria is.


I packed my bags and looked at the time. I still have 30 minutes left before we leave. I wonder why it is only me and Rei that was sent out. I'm not that strong though.


I went out of the room gently and closed the door without making a loud sound. I walked towards the control room and to my surprise, Cindy and Raine was already there, when I went in, both of them threw something at me that made me grab both of it. One was an arrow and the other one was a rod. I looked at them with a confused expression and then they suddenly ran towards me.


"We're so sorry! Are you hurt?" Cindy said. Raine apologized to me too.


"It's okay. What a very pleasant greeting." I joked.


"Well, we have been doing something to upgrade our defences and we haven't taken a long break. We thought that you were an enemy." Cindy continued.


"Well, are you done with it?" I asked politely while looking at the holographic screen.


"Almost." Raine answered as she walked back to the moniter hurriedly.


I looked at the time since I was staying here for a long time already and I noticed I only had 4 minutes left so I decided to go back to my room. As I entered, I quickly grabbed my bag and my weapon. I sighed but accepted the fact that we need to do this in order to give them information. I don't really know much about the Huntresa tribe but they seem to be dangerous people.


I went out of my room with my bag and weapon when I noticed a huge smoke erupting outside. I quickly ran to the direction where the smoke was and when I arrived there I noticed a lot of mysterious people wearing black capes.The Huntresa Tribe. I grabbed my scythe but then Cindy and Raine went infront of me.


"Sera, they are outside and there is a big chance that you can't get out alive. You need us." Cindy said as she grabbed her bow and arrow.


"You go on, Mel will help you and Rei escape." Raine said.


I was not gonna agree but then I trust them.


"Mhm." I nodded and quickly ran forward. Rei and Mei suddenly appeared beside me and they were running too. The gates opened and we were greeted with magic blasts. I dodged them and jumped up in the air. When I landed, I kicked one guy that caused him to fall. I increased my speed and strength that enabled me to knock some of them down. A holographic cannon suddenly appeared but it was not an ordinary cannon. It was a double cannon. Wait...


"Quickly!" Mel shouted. Vin appeared and his eyes glowed green and blue. I don't know why his eyes don't change color but I think his eyes are special. I went on top of the cannon so did Rei.


"You guys ready?" Mel asked. We nodded. 5 Huntresa members rushed towards us but 1 member punched another member in the face. I looked behind Mel and smirked. He possessed those people.


When the Huntresa members were near, They were repelled away. I was going to ask who did it but then I was already sent flying. I looked at Rei and he pointed towards the forest. He suddenly dissapeared and he was now standing on a strong branch. I teleported beside him and I sighed in relief. We jumped down and looked around for any signs of life.


"This way." Rei's eyes turned blood red and I noticed that it got brighter unlike before. I followed him and I noticed his breathing turned heavy. I remembered what happened in the kitchen. It made me space out but then when I was abouy to stop thinking, I bumped into something.


I bumped on his back and I looked at him. I noticed him going on to his fighting stance. I stared at the person in front of us.


"Well, the queen has predicted this already. Now that you people are here, I might play with you for a while." A guy with violet eyes looked at us with a menacing smile. Seconds later, me and Rei jumped away. I was in a tree branch while he was still on the ground. A lightning bolt almost cooked us alive.


Rei threw his axes away that made me wonder why. He suddenly smirked and stared at the person.


"I'm fired up." A black beam suddenly started to launch towards the random person. Smoke was covering the area so I couldn't see him. A shadow emerged from the smoke and I saw him unscratched.


"That packed a punch." The guy's eyes suddenly flared and a white magic circle appeared under Rei.
It exploded and I heard Rei groan.


"Heh. That wasn't strong enough." Rei used the back of his fist to wipe up the blood in his face.


"Then how about this?"


White beams suddenly hit his limbs that made him collapse on the ground.


"Tch. Oi! Let me out!" Rei squirmed. I suddenly wonder. He is like a funny character when he fights.


I need to use the new magic I learned. I jumped out of the branch and concentrated. A magic circle appeared under me and I felt power surge inside of me.


"Thy stars, help me defeat and cleanse the evil within. Aquarius, lend me your strength!" Aquarius' zodiac sign appeared on my palms and I held it out. A water beam blasted off and submerged the enemy. I looked at Rei and helped him up.


"Thanks." Rei said. He screa.ed his battle cry and rushed towards the water. He went straight for the enemy and then it happened. They were punching, kicking, and casting magic. I jumped as high as I can and went straight for the enemy. I kicked him that made him clash his back on the ground. The ground cracked as I put more pressure. He clicked his fingers and I was sent flying.


"Sera!" I heard Rei shout but I was now flying up. I grabbed my scythe and concentrated my power. Water started to cling towards my scythe and I felt a huge amount of power. I heard Rei shout.


"REGALYO IMPACT!" a white and black beam hit the enemy and it seems that he is struggling. We need to finish this.


"WATERIA WAVE!" I spun in the air and my falling speed increased. I hit the enemy and a huge wave of water erupted from the ground to the sky.


"HA!" As I screamed, the beam grew bigger and I felt my energy getting sapped quickly. I moved to the side and I landed safely. The water beam was gone and smoke filled the area.


"Well." My eyes widened as I felt my heart go tight. It had no effect on him? A wave of static light hit us causing me to scream.


"AGHH!" I hit my back on the ground and I felt pain throughout my body.


"I'll let you slip for now. The queen is calling me. The Black Bee." He said as I felt my consciousness getting lost.


I stood up but then another wave of static hit me. I groaned in pain as I fully lost my remaining energy.


Mel's POV


We finished off the battle and went back in the house to protect it. I looked at the time and remembered Rei and Sera. They should have arrived by now. I stood up from the chair and went to the control room to check on Cindy and Raine. The door opened and a vast amount of smoke gushed out of the room. I sighed and waited for the smoke to disperse. The nitrogen drinks spilled again. Maybe Cindy was drinking them. I entered and saw a lot of cups. I knew it. I used my holigraphic power to make hands that picked up and cleaned the mess. I walked towards the big monitor to look at what they were doing.


"Cindy, The nitrogen drinks spilled again." Cindy looked at me and smiled jokingly.


"Sorry." She looked back at the monitor when suddenly a figure appeared.


It's the headmaster!


"You guys have to go to Sera and Rei. They are in danger. They might lose the battle."


"Battle? I thought they were spying on them?"I asked.


"They were caught up in a battle. They are currently unconscious right now. Also... I have another bad news. One of our members was caught by Frimorie Hunters." He said.


"Who was caught?!" I asked worriedly.


"It was Dreyar Immun."


Him?
