Chapter 8 - Space Skip
Sylphy and Eve walked away, leaving Kaizoku behind to find help and a safe place.
Kaizoku hid behind a large rock inside the cave, scanning his surroundings.
He gripped his revolver tightly, ready for anything. "Ebonlight... Why is there always trouble..."
Not long after, Kaizoku heard the sound of a chainsaw coming from outside the cave. "Come out or you'll regret it!"
Kaizoku tightened his grip on his revolver, peeking out from behind the rock. He saw a nun dressed in all white, holding a chainsaw in her hand.
"Come on, Kai... You can do this... Huff, huff..." Kaizoku stepped out from behind the rock and immediately fired a bullet toward the nun.
The nun didn't react quickly enough to dodge the bullet.
The bullet flew toward her, hitting her cheek.
But instead of piercing her, Kaizoku suddenly teleported in front of the nun. "H-Hi..."
The nun silently raised her chainsaw, aiming to strike Kaizoku.
He blocked the chainsaw with his revolver. "Not very friendly!" Kaizoku said while struggling to hold off her chainsaw.
He kicked the nun in the stomach and leaped back, confused as to why he had teleported instead of attacking her.
"What's wrong, kid? Having trouble? Do you know who I am?" the nun asked, still smiling widely. Kaizoku answered cautiously.
"No... I don't know you."
The nun stepped closer to him. "In that case, my name is Reverend Taki... from EBONLIGHT!" Taki suddenly lunged forward, attacking with her chainsaw.
Kaizoku barely dodged her attack. Still confused about what was happening with his revolver, he decided to put it away, tucking it back into his belt.
Kaizoku countered by punching Taki hard in the face, sending her flying out of the cave. Adjusting his hair, he stepped outside and approached her.
"How dare you strike my sacred skin..." Taki slowly rose from the ground.
"You'll die for this, kid..." She revved her chainsaw, causing it to spin faster and glow orange.
Taki dragged her chainsaw across the ground, sending a vertical flame projectile toward Kaizoku.
He managed to dodge it, but the situation was getting tougher.
Taki launched another flame projectile at him.
Kaizoku hesitated for a second, thinking about whether to use his revolver after what had happened earlier.
"Alright, Destion, I trust you." He quickly pulled out his revolver and fired at a tree he had spotted.
As he expected, Kaizoku teleported to the tree. "Aha! It's true, thank you, Destion."
Taki quickly realized Kaizoku had moved to the tree.
She dragged her chainsaw across the ground five times, creating five flame projectiles aimed at him.
Kaizoku swiftly fired at another tree. Just like before, he teleported to the tree he had shot. "Woooh! I'm calling this spell Space Skip!"
"Goodbye, nun." Kaizoku fired his revolver again, this time at a distant spot on the snowy mountain.
In a matter of seconds, he vanished and reappeared on the snowy peak.
Taki continued to smile widely as she watched Kaizoku teleport up the mountain. "Don't underestimate me, boy..."
She revved her chainsaw twice quickly. The chainsaw's color shifted from orange to dark blue.
Taki slashed the ground hard. "Holiest Waves." She released the spell, creating massive waves, then leapt onto them as they surged toward the snowy mountain.
