12: The last confrontation against the beasts

Just like always, the gas came knocked me and Akatsuki down and Blah Blah Blah... Let's get to the point. When I recovered consciousness, I couldn't move yet, as expected. I was getting carried to somewhere, and I heard steps, probably from the people who had carried me here. It wasn't time yet. I tried as hard as I could to open my eyes. A loud noise was heard. They were tossing something onto the ground? The sound ringed four more times, and then, the loud sound of the steel door closing began echoing in the room. I opened my eyes. 5 wolves were lying on the ground, still asleep. I stood up slowly and confirmed this round equipment. Two short swords were attached to my belt. I unsheathed them and proceeded to run towards the wolf that was the closest to me, and while doing that, I prepared some... useful tricks that I had learnt all this years using dots and strings. The first one was to slow the flow of battle, but it is something I can only do for some moments...

The second one is a much usable trick, that in fact, I used against Akatsuki a lot of times. Do you know about the primal origins? They are the dots that in theory should always be inside your body and are supposed to be useless. Well guess what, found ways to use them.

The first one is "Short-Ranged Teleport".

Using the primal origin, you aborb the space you were inside a dot, transfer it into another dot placed wherever you want to go, and then emit the same space that was absorbed.¹ Moving things through strings is way faster than moving things at normal speed. For now, I have been able to transfer spaces at the speed of sound. When I appear in the other side, The dot I used to teleport to that location becomes the new Primal Origin, and the old Primal Origin becomes a free dot.

And so, I throwed some spatial dots into random places... just in case I have to flee. I got to the wolf and pierced its eye all the way until reaching the brain, making it an Insta-Kill. The other wolves were starting to wake up, so I went and severed a frontal paw of two wolves(You can consider it me being in the middle and cutting their paws slashint outwards), and after that, I teleported to the back of the room to get some distance.

The two wolves whose paws I had cut were trying to stand in the three paws that they had remaining, but they were having some trouble to stand correctly, let alone walk, move or run. The two that could move, began running towards me, however... When they passed the point where I previously was I teleported back to that point and chopped off one of the wolve's head, and while the other wolf was still trying to find me, I threw a spatial dot upwards and pierced towards the wolf. As I was moving to pierce it, the wolf spot me, but when he did, I transfered myself to the dot I had thrown upwards and pierced from above. Of course, I couldn't aim so accurately changing of places so fast, so I pierced its chest, though I think I didn't pierce the heart. I pulled out the sword, and then the wolf tried to bite me, but... 'Not So Fast!' I slowed the flow of time in the whole room absorbing with a time dot, and I transfered all the energy absorbed into the primal origin of time and was reused to speed myself up.

Everything felt slow.The wolf turning to me to try and bite me... However, I couldn't move as fast as I would have liked. Even if I accel the time within me, there is still friction with the air. Trying to move as 'fast' as I would normally percieve would put too much of a strain on my body, so I needed to move 'slowly'(according to my perception, my max speed in this mode would be slower than usual, but for any outsider, I would be moving faster than my usual speed.).

When the wolf was turning to bite me, I simply positioned my shortsword to meet its eye, and slowly but surely, pierced all the way to the brain

That feeling... The feeling of piercing something or someone to end a life. In the beginning, I hated it. Slowing down time made me feel it much clearer.

Sometimes I had to feel it all the way due to the battle not being over and due to the need of keeping an eye to the other threats.

At the start, it was a torture

Now it feels like a blessing.

When I had pierced so deep that my handle was literally right in front of the eye, I slowly took the way out of the skull, feeling that friction with the brain and the eyeball clearly. Two wolves remained in the ground, trying to stand up, but with just three limbs, it seemed that they wouldn't be able to fight in that form. I got close, and chopped off their heads. I also chopped off their remaining limbs after killing, just to feel that exhilarating feeling once again. After that, the gas began seeping into the room. I lied down, and got ready to be brought back to my room.

¹Do you remember Tobi? of Naruto? You can think of this teleport as something similar to his.

Author notes:It's not that he enjoys causing suffering, he enjoys the feeling of cutting, piercing, hitting... Big etcetera. Not sure if that's sadism or not. After this chapter I will upload Akatsuki's side on the lost files.
