Einer and Wilson went on ahead blitzing eachother, making their own trails of Lightning and Ice. They passed through people packing and closing their factories and creating ice creams for people along the way, as Signet struggled to catch up to them. Soon enough, Wilson and Einer stopped after sensing some pressure walking towards them. Signet also caught up with the two, panting with hands on his knees, he wheezed uncomfortably.
"Captain! You go ahead and stop Stincer! He is not amoungst them!"
Einer said with expressions of frown on his face.
Signet shocked by Einer's impeccable forthought, laughed and then calmed himself down.
"Well... If i said that you'd need my help. It'd be a disgrace to you now wouldn't it? Right then, Leave that bastard Stincer to me!"
He said as he started to go on ahead.
Just then Mikey and Carlos stopped him with a giant fireball made by their combined attributes. Signet landed safely and grunted as 5 Executives of the Chained Dogs, all evolved the first time, came across him.
The attributes have the tendency to get stronger by being evolved. The stronger a person is, highly evolved they will be. All of the five evolutions that an attribute can achieve depends on how experienced or how hard the person has trained. Usually it takes all the lifetime to reach 3rd or 4rth Evolution. Even these Chained dog Executives are all First Evolution.
"Now now... Dont get so hasty Captain. You have to bypass us to get to Stincer yknow?"
Mikey mocked Signet.
Signet got up and grunted as the Executives surrounded him, ready to attack.
"Ooyyyeee!! You guys aren't ignoring us are you? We also wanted a fight yknow!"
Wilson said, as Einer and Wilson felt ignored by the Executives.
"Heyy!! Nortik isn't here yet? What the hell is that guy doing??"
Calos whispered, frightened they all were, as they knew that nobody amoungst them stood a chance against Wilson or Einer.
"Captain Signet? Why are you standing like that? Didn't you hear from Einer to go and stop Stincer? Go on quickly!"
Wilson said as he stepped forward and unsheathed his sword.
Signet nodded and went off towards Stincer as now the Executives were focused on Wilson.
All the Executives, frowning and ready to engage were left in shock, as those were the final expressions left on their faces as their throats were split apart and and blood flowed out of them. Wilson, the blitzing master, so fast he beats Einer in it, casually blitzed past all the executives and cut all of thier heads off while they were all left to wonder in thier final thoughts.
Wilson sheathced his sword back in, behind him a fountain of blood within which the dead bodies of the executives drenched, beside him Einer with his eyes closed.
The two went on ahead, to thier next hunting ground, The Diocese.

Meanwhile, Riley sat on the floor of the roof, remembering his old days, ejambed with darkness and loneliness. Then suddenly, the door to the roof clanked open and Wandera came out.
"There you were.... I thought i heard your voice from above."
She said walkimg towards Riley.
Riley didn't move as he was so lost in his thoughts. So Wandera came up to him and crouched down beside him the she lifted her amrs up towards Riley, her shawl that she wore on the her shoulders fell of as she did, revealing her scantily dressing. She hugged Riley, and pat on her head and ears, playing with them, which made Riley consious again. The warmth and the fragrance, the sense of shyness, the tears that hid his quivering jaw. It made a contrast to what he had experienced so far. It was also painful for him to experience, for it made him relive his torturing life all over again. It made him remember the night the man clad in Black and Golden unleashed his wrath upon the Golden City, Feldia.
Riley lived in Feldia city, the city of Patriarchaty, of Rio country in diamond continent. He used to live inside of the Patriarchaty with his mother and the other kids, his mother had adopted. From his birth he had not seen his father. Yet it didn't bother him as the children he used to live with were orphans aswell.
Riley would play with them all day long, while his mother, Erika, would carry out the duties of a Nun, they would normally eat Potato Stew or Bean Soup. On special occasions her mother would save up and treat them to fancy meat meals. Their life was stable, most of all it was happy. Erika would them a bed time story which made them fall asleep.
"Riley...! Margaret...!! Everyone, come inside Dinner is ready!"
Erika called the children, who were playing outside as it was their habit to do so.
Hearing the call, everyone rushed inside through the rear gate. After washing themselves up, they all rushed to dining table and everyone sat down.
Sophia, the eldest child, brought out plates from the kitchen with Erika.
"Margaret... You are old enough now! You should help duties aswell!"
She said as she put the plates on the table.
"But.. Ma said i could still play outside!"
Margaret replied with an endearing look in her eyes.
"Now now, Sophie, Margaret is still a little child you see! She should play as much as she likes right now!"
Erika added.
Margaret endearing looks changed to delight as she heard that as Erika pat on her head.
"But Ma! You work all the time! You also deserve some rest!"
Sophia argued with a tone of care.
"Its all fine! And tonight, We have.... Turkeyyyy!!!"
Erika said she brought out a Turkey and placed in the centre of the table. Everyone cheered as she put the Turkey on the table. Erika also sat down on the table and passed the pots to everyone and they prayed.
"Rikey pray or you won't get the Turkey yknow!"
Erika said.
"But Mom... I dont want to. Why do we have to pray everytime?"
Riley argued.
"Its to show our gratitude to God. If you don't pray before eating, God wouldn't know you are happy and wouldn't give you food. So pray!"
Erika explained as Riley quickly joined his hands and staeted to Pray.
"Oh... Divine Aether! Thank you so much for giving us the food! As we dig in, Please protext us by your spirits!"
They all prayed and then started to eat. Erika cut the Turkey into small peices and divided it amongst 5 childs and herself giving Riley the biggest peice. Riley looked up towards Erika in delight, upon being given a full leg piece, as Erika winked and smiled softly.
After eating, Erika and Sophia washed the plates and Margaret sat on the shelf near them while all the three boys took a hot bath in the bathroom above the Kitchen.
"Hey, Riley pour some water on Lucas!"
Henry, one of the kids said, as the three were bathing less and playing more in there.
"They are causing a ruckus! The roof is gonna break at this point!
Sophia said abit annoyed by the three. Then she dropped the pots dryed her hands by her apron and went upstairs to bring the three out of the bath.
Sophia knocked on the bathroom door and the three, wearing short towels came out.
Sophia smacked the heads of the three and gave them their night clothes after advising them dry up quickly. Then she came down unrolling her sleeves, she took off her apron and told the two girls to come up for the bath aswell.
The three boys, meanwhile, changed to their night pajamas and now started to do pillow fights with eachother, laughing as a strong gust wind reminded them of the cold. Riley went to close the window and saw the beautiful Full Moon.
"Henry, Lucas, come here, Its the full moon!"
Riley called the two in excitement. The two rushed over and they all saw the full moon together, glazing its beauty.
The cold wind and the beautiful light twinkled in the eyes of Riley as being with his family made him happy. His dark hair shined by the light of the Selene Moon.
"Ahhhh..... Its so warm in here, its fuzzy!! I want to stay here for the rest of my life!!"
Sophia said while she was drenched inside the hot tub with Erika and Margaret. As the warmth and the heat comferted her as she rested her head down on Erika's chest while both of their long hairs were captured by hair catchers. Margaret sat on a bath chair and washed herself with a pot. After soaking in for a while, nearing falling asleep on Erika's chest, Sophia got out of the bath tub and sat on another bath chair to wash Margaret's back. They washed eachother's backs and, dryed themselves with long towels and got out after changing into their night pajamas aswell.
When the girls came in the room to sleep, the room was a mess, as the three were back to playing after admiring the beauty of the full moon for a breif amount of time. Sophia shouted and put the three to sleep, after closing the window. Everyone lay down to sleep and Erika turned the lights off and turned on a small lamp. The children then started to ask Erika for a bed time story. Sophia complained, saying that Ma is tired but Erika stopped her and asked which one they wanted to hear.
"The Full Moon one!"
The four kids said at once.
"Alright then, lets listen to the Full Moon story!"
Meanwhile, outside the Patriarchaty, some sort of Ruckus had started as some guy clad in Black and Golden started a killing spree of citizens. That man killed every human in his sight and using cyclones and tornadoes he destroyed complete houses and buildings.
Feldia was an advanced city with tall buildings and most up to date technology. It was also said that Feldia was the city of gold due to its importance in the world. Yet that City of Gold was now being blown away by wind, created by one single man clad in Black and Golden. That man created bullets, that enclosed tornadoes in them. No fire was created yet the city was reduced to rubble. In the midst of all destruction and cacophonies and cries of mercy, That man walked in a hood with devilish grin on his face. He watched with delight as people were buried under the tall buildings, and fountains of blood were splattered all across the city.
Then after killing all the people of Feldia, that cruelity, laid his eyes on The Prestigious Patriarchaty — the church abandoned by its owners — now was left to crumble.
