Shinobi From Hell

The feeling of the blood sinking in his nose was exhilarating. The warmth that he received from the hundreds of corpses was making his mind blank!

'Since when had I felt so good before? Ah, the time I had single handedly annihilated all the members of the Castle of Lich. That time it felt as good as this!'

When a human dies. Little by little his body turns cold. Turns out that the heat in their bodies passed onto the surroundings. It was this warmth that Armand was so addicted to!

"If they would have been alive they could have betrayed me or abandoned me, but with this, they are finally all to mine." He whispered as he consoled himself for his actions. After all this was the only way he could hope to have what he so craved for in this damnable world! There was no other way...

He snuggled his cheek against the bleeding of his dead bodies, his own body already dyed in red with these ninja's blood. And now his cheeks too had the mark of red.

After a while, all these bodies would be out cold and there would be nothing left for Armand to enjoy. Till then he wanted to absorb every bit of whatever he could from it.

It was then…

*swish*

Klautz who was pretending to be dead amongst the pile of bodies pierced his sword through his very heart. He was leaning against the pile of corpses with his chest struck the closest as it could have been to the pile. After all? How else could he be on his high? 

Armand had never expected a sword to pierce out of the corpses. Klautz didn't fall under the notice of the now dying Armand.

He pulled himself out.

*swish*

His chest was bleeding like a fountain as he felt a splitting pain in his chest. He could breathe! He was but taking his few dying breaths.

HIs eyes were wide as he couldn't believe what was happening. He held onto his chest as he tried to stop his bleeding but to no avail!

He took a step back as he realized his life was close to its end.

*cough*

He coughed out blood as he covered his mouth with his hand. His hands shook as he looked at it dyed by his blood. Unlike the ninjas, his own blood wasn't warm at all, it was cold!

*Thud*

He fell to his knees as he knew he was having his dying hours.

"The Amethyst stone… bring me the Amethyst stone… ,," he ordered to his puppet as he reached out his hand. A string of magical energy left his hands as it made one of the puppets move. The puppet moved towards his tent to get what he wanted. 

But alas Klautz had come out of the pile of corpses. He was taking deep breaths as his chest heaved up and down. It was a gamble. If he was another minute inside that pile, he would have died of suffocation.

*Slash*

"Ack"

With a swing of his sword, he decapitated Armand.

*thud*

The puppet that was walking towards the tent fell as the string of magical energy was severed.

The plan had succeeded. It was smoothly carried out. Finally Armand was dead.

The whole ninja village had participated in it as a whole! In the past, no matter which Rank A ninja they had sent after Armand all of them had washed their hands off their lives. So this time they had sent a bunch of Rank C ninjas to go on a suicidal mission. Rank C because they couldn't afford to lose any more of their rank As.

Klautz was the only rank A in the mission.

"Mission complete," Klautz whispered as he packed Armand's head in his bundle. It was proof that the mission had succeeded.

It was dubbed to be an impossible mission but it succeeded just because of Armand's peculiar nature or so had Klautz thought for he hadn't heard Armand's dying whispers. None of the previous Rank A's had come home to tell their tale. What could the ninja village deduce other than they had died?

Klautz smirked as he disappeared into the forest.

[Flashback ends]

"Klautz are you okay?" Selena whispered as she walked closer to Klautz. For some reason KLautz was lost in a daze and Selena's voice brought him back to reality.

But Klautz wasn't polite enough to reply to Selena's voice. Instead he chose to frown at something else.

A moment ago the breeze was fresh and smelled of nature, but now it smelled of blood.

Klautz brows twitched in thought.

"Wait," Klautz beckoned them to stop, showing them the palm of his hands. His ears twitched as several unusual noises entered his ears. Klautz somehow knew what this sound was.

"Everyone stay here, shout my name if under attack. I will go ahead and scout the surroundings," He said as he ran towards a tree and took a few leaps till he reached one of the lower branches.

In the distance, he could see three people having a conversation with one another. Around them there were four corpses lying dead. They had died in a horrible way with their guts spilling out.

"Wait, are those wolf ears?" Klautz whispered but soon realized that it was a headband one of the girls was wearing. She also had a weird stuffed wolf wrapped around her arms.

Klautz was quite far from them so he could barely hear what they were speaking. So he resorted to old means as he decided to read their lips instead. 

Reading the lips of multiple people at the same time was surely a mentally exhausting task but he had trained a lot on this so it was as easy as tying shoe laces for him.

"Why are you doing this, Eli? You must stop. This is not you!"
