Chapter 88: Chapter 88: New Era. (Part 1)

The brief pause in the fight comes to an end with euphoric screams of Students, Cadets and Recruits alike; The sweet promise of a reward from the Imperishable Entities is too alluring to let the opportunity to be wasted.

The frenzy of the Students expressions is evident to any onlooker, reaching the fanaticism and desperation seen in the suicidal terrorist attacks of the Lanigiros.

Not only the former are in a disadvantageous position, having lost most of their leaders and foot soldiers, along with the deserters that betray them, further weakening their forces.

As something at their backs is not observable for the oblivious Students; A new party has entered in the Third Floor, and they are not the usual Anthropoids anyone could expect, even with the diversity of Eldyron City.

Hairless Creatures with blue chitinous skin, long ears, and menacing silver irises; They are wearing a type of vest over a simple gambeson of blue cotton.

This newcomers are equiped with strange gauntlets, displaying on top a hooked sharp tip that gives the impression of being ejectable.

They are slightly hunched over, moving silently forward in a crouching position, what makes them look shorter than the 2.10 meters of height they possess in their robust frames.

Two of them carry a stone maze in their opposite hand, while the leading figure has a bend wand made of thick silver bone, differently to his minions, who materialize a similar wand to the one used by the Students.

{This doesn’t seem like additional forces...}

Khallyon materialize his Binocular Mask to scan the incoming enemies, but the [Åyûrïc Shields] the Creatures have prevent the possibility.

{How?!, I manage to scan the Perennence Trader!, This Creatures shouldn’t be capable of blocking my... , Oh... , I... , I see... , The Perennence Trader allowed me to scan him, so I learn his name, and how futile it is to resist making a deal with him, or any of his kind...}

The Rogue Cadet dematerialize his useless Equipment, as he casts Åyûrïc Nodes; The Creatures increase their speed, rising the sound of their steps as they aim forward the bend wooden wands.

The hasty march engulfs in dread some of the Students, as an injured Instructor regains mobility and informs loudly "We are under attack!, Forget the Students, eliminate the Residents from the Invasive Territory!".

Everyone is freezed for a second, that should be impossible, the Interference Zone is actively defending Eldyron City to prevent this situation.

Khallyon himself observe during the night how the Moon was charging with Åyûrïc Energy the walls of the City to keep this "Everlasting Effect".

Nevertheless, this outcome was already foreseeable, after all, the Perennence Traders had already given the hint that this would happen at some point.

And if it weren’t obvious enough for everyone in Tiaone, The Imperishable Entities themselves accelerated the process.

There would be no fun for them if it were otherwise, as the Students would be "Take Down" by the Cadets and Recruits; This is obvious because an Instructor, although wounded, is now able to fight alongside them.

The Students struggle between fighting until falling; Stepping aside and trying to withdraw from the conflict to reorganize; Or praying to get help from the people they were attacking just a mere second ago.

"To the Kitchen!"; Orders the Young Lady with white hair who is Khallyon’s objective in his Ephemeral Commission.

The Students obey without a second thought, running and jumping over the bar to take cover from the crossfire of the Creature’s [Needleers] and the cubic Standard Ammunitions of the Cadets and Recruits.

"What are you doing Stupid Snob?!"; Complain Mätzeniä as the Students are nowhere to be seen "Why did you let them scape?!".

"Simple!"; Scream the Rogue Cadet with a mocking voice that reverberates across the Third Floor "To engrain in their minds how pathetic and hypocritical they are!, running away when they hurt their comrades when they did the same thing!".

{Crushing the Mind, Body, Shape and Will of someone is not achievable in a single meeting... , Even with overwhelming power... , *Sigh*,Hopefully this will be enough to get me a good start in this Ephemeral Commission... , Although I don’t know how long a Period is, which is the time I have to fulfill this task... , *Sigh*, I will look into it as soon as I can...}

Khallyon is ready to unleash another pair of Explosive Dodecahedrons, noting that the Creatures are more interested in acquiring the bodies of Cadets, Recruits and Students that hadn’t been reclaimed by the Memory Halls.

{They know we are defenseless in this state!}

The Rogue Cadet tilts his head towards the wounded Instructor, the latter nods approvingly, knowing what Khallyon is about to do.

Resuming with his initial intention, the Rogue Cadet launches one Explosive Dodecahedron, followed by a second one right after; Some of the Corpses are Take Down by Khallyon, which forces the Creature’s attention and rage.

The [Åyûrïc Shields] are not a viable option against explosions, and the Creatures comprehend this up to certain degree; Switching their own attacks of [Needleers] for a different proyectile to deal with the Cadets defenses.

"[BMournce]"; Say the Creatures at unison, shooting slightly upwards a volley of spherical yellow rounds that make a parabolic travel, impacting and bouncing off Khallyon’s [Åyûrïc Field] and [Åyûrïc Hurdles], returning back the attacks to the original senders.

Surprised by this apparent inconsistency with the Leader’s Command, the Creatures gather what they can and turn around, having a few deceased in their way out as the spherical rounds explode against them.

Which is powerful but not as much as the constant harassment of the current inhabitants of Tiaone, who keep firing their cubic Standard Ammunitions, not wanting to let those things to have any Anthropoids to "Play" with, but ultimately, they fail, as several Cadets and Students are kidnapped, even when Khallyon manages to launch a couple of Explosive Dodecahedrons.

{This is the first time I have seen a group of Creatures that prioritize their profits over eliminating their enemies... , Is evident how little I understand from the interactions of the Invasive Territories with Leathemnur, *Sigh*, Should I had used the "Comet"?, Even if that meant Taking Down almost everyone here?...}
