Chapter 134: Chapter 133: Brianstorm

Merida disappeared. Seriously. One moment she was right in front of me, the next she wasn't. She told me I could keep the Kamikaze marble, so I guess I now have a secret weapon! One that goes kablooey! I know since I listen to Christie. It's important to listen to your weapon dealers, kids. You don't want your weapon to blow up in your face because you were stupid to not listen to the person giving you the weapon. I learnt that lesson the hard way.

Right now, I'm trying to get to the Royal Palace. According to Merida, the whole MMMMMM party is there. I love our party's name. Apparently, Mimi got married, so we have to add an S somewhere into that name… or we could kick Mimi out. Probably not, since that's mean. Let me tell you, being kicked out of an adventurer party sucks and happens way too much in Mendass. Also, a lot of revenge plots happen in Mendass. So many revenge plots. I should have a revenge plot at some point.

"Finally…" A random hole in the ground appeared in front of me, and a man slowly rose out of it. The hole has this weird swirling effect around it, with a red and black colour scheme. It looks tasty… I mean, cool. "Time for my revenge."

He opened another hole, this time in the air, pulling a sword out of it. It looks like a sword, it probably tastes like a sword, it got summoned like a sword, I think it's a swo- I sidestep, avoiding an overhead slash. Geez, didn't even gi- I duck, dodging a swipe of the sword. Okay, no commentary, go- I jump up, avoiding a sweep kick. 

I jump up high enough to land on his shoulder with one foot, then kick his face with the other, jumping off with a front flip. I've always wanted to do that. He stumbles backwards a bit, then recollects himself, immediately glaring at me. That doesn't hit as hard as Mel's glare. Time for a surprise attack! I stomp my foot, turning the ground under him into mud, causing him to sink. He retaliates by attacking the mud with his sword… man, he sucks at fighting.

I slowly walked up to him while he was too distracted dicing and slicing the mud with his sword, when out of nowhere, a man fell from the sky, right on top of him, knocking him out. Well, that just happened. Since those holes are probably a Sacred Power, I might as well look into his eyes. I continued approaching him when I noticed another man fall from the sky, then another, then another. I look up to find a hurricane filled to the brim with men in the sky. That… doesn't look good.

I tap my foot, creating a bunch of shadow clones. Some float into the air to protect me from the raining men, while others run around, trying to figure out what's happening. I sent one to get the hole guy's Side Note while I stayed under my improvised shadow clone and walked towards the Royal Palace. I see the shadow clone reached him and is now peeking. Coolio.

Abyssal Magic You can use magic that originates from the Abyss. Side Note: It's like the Void but instead of the cool blue and white, it's the hot red and black.

I have no idea what the Abyss is, but it sure sounds… uhh… edgy. Yes. Edgy. Edgy like the… umm…

"There you fucking are." I turned around to find… Myka? Why was she here? "Because your stupid dumbass decided to get stalled by some random filler instead of the actual plot. Holy shit, you're the main character, and yet somehow you missed out on everything!"

"Huh?"

"Whatever. Doesn't fucking matter. Not like there was a plot anyways…" Myka looked up at the sky and whistled. "Crazy, isn't it? Par for the course. So, want an explanation?"

"No, not really."

"Fuck you. I'm giving you the long story short. Merida released Entropy, so as long as we're here in Trogen, we'll probably be subject to wacky shit."

"Oh, okay."

"Come on, give a funnier reaction. A funny random reaction."

"I… hope it rains food?"

"Already a book and movie. Try again."

"I… hope it rains water?"

"Natural phenomenon. Try again."

"I… hope it rains Brians?"

"That's exactly what's happening, so I guess your wish has come true."

"Oh, okay."

"Let's go to the Royal Palace."

"Aye aye, captain!"

Myka rolled her eyes, then snapped her fingers.

So the castle wasn't any better. For some reason, the whole place was now made out of glass. A really weird shade of green. It looks like green, but I'm unable to think that it is definitively green, so I can't help but think it's sort of green or a really weird green. Oh, but I did reunite with Mel… she's still unconscious.

"I didn't want to hear you two flirt, so I knocked her out."

"Why is Lina knocked out?"

"I didn't want to hear shitty meta jokes, so I knocked her out."

"Why is Mimi knocked out?"

"I felt like it."

"Oh, okay."

Mel, Lina and Mimi are knocked out, like I said, so… should I go over who else is here? There's a girl in a wedding dress who's currently fighting an elf with a flagpole, Rio and her shadow clone are tied up with, let me count… 27 layers of chains for some odd reason, and there's Mila glued to the wall, staring out into the chaos with ecstatic eyes and screaming things at her shadow clone, although I can't hear a thing. According to her shadow clone, it's because chaos is something that cannot bore her. So yeah, that's everyone… why is Mila here, and why can't I hear her?

"Bellum was planning a takeover, but I stopped it with a flick of the wrist. Completely and utterly destroyed. I couldn't get rid of Mila, though. I guess she's important or some shit. As for why you can't hear her… just give me a second." Myka snapped her fingers, creating a weird block with buttons, aimed it at Mila, and pressed a button multiple times. With each button press, Mila's voice became louder and louder until I was finally able to hear her.

"Look, Kine. If my analysis is correct, that shadow beyond the storm should be the silhouette of a giant rock lobster!"

A giant rock what?

Character profile: Apoll

Sacred power: Abyssal Magic

Favourite angel: Metatron

Description: The Otherworlder blessed by Apollyon, the Angel of the Abyss. Apoll is just another crony stuck doing odd jobs for the Reincarnator's Organization, but what makes his position worse is that unlike most of the other Otherworlders, Apoll was stationed in Druena, found on the southeast edge of Mendass, considered to be the worst country to live in on Mendass. He ended up in the castle of Rio Verdeux, where he was accidentally humiliated by Madeleine after a passing remark about combat. He swore revenge, and this strong desire led to him coming into contact with Apollyon, who gave their blessings.
