《Collision of Myths》Counterstrike
Advertisement
Felix knew the consequences of granting other people powers, but he knew that he would need their help. That said, he’d have to be very careful with what powers he would grant them, So he was going to use knowledge that he had at his disposal he would grant them powers and and weapons that would benefit them both in the long run and further increase his relationship with them.
“Alright here's the powers I will be giving you. Starting with you Launa, I will grant you a great sword. With it, you will be granted the ten powers that lie within the sword of course it will take some time for you to get used to it. Also, you will be given a manual that will allow you to use what little magic you have to train your body. Next is Luna, for you, I will grant you these ten power rings, each granting you a different type of magic. Considering your high level of magic you should be able to adjust to them rather nicely. Next is Lucy,and you will also be given a sword, though this one will match your size. However, this sword has a unique power in that it will grant you a very unique armor. With your intellect, I'm sure you will easily figure out the mechanics of the armor. Finally, for you Laura, I see a lot of potential in you. You are timid, but you also have a great strength you haven't unlocked yet. So for you, I grant you the Gate of Babylon. Within is a whole collection of weapons and armors. I will also give you weapon mastery, for every weapon you pick up you will immediately know how to use it.” - Felix
A bright circle appeared under each of them, their weapons taking form. Only Laura didn't have a weapon appear, but unlike the rest of her siblings, her weapons existed in a separate space completely. When the circles faded, there wasn't much change in their appearance, though they brimming with a new level of confidence, especially Laura.
“I can feel an abundance of knowledge flowing into me. I can tell this technique is clearly profound and this sword even more so. You are a complete mystery to me Felix and I hope to unravel you in the future. Until then I will thank you trusting us with your secret.” - Launa
“Indeed. I really love these rings. They look and feel amazing. You may as well marry me. I'm officially ruined for all other suitors.” - Luna
“Luna, don't joke about something like that, you barely even know him. Besides, it is far too early for you 2 to be thinking about that.” - Lucy
“C'mon you guys this is not the time to be fighting, our mother's in danger. Besides, he and I are about the same age so if he was to be with anyone...” - Laura
“Well well well, look who's truly fallen for our little benefactor. As always Laura you're wearing your emotions on your sleeve. And if he marries anyone, it would be me, I'm the oldest.” - Launa

“Can you girls not talk like I'm not even here. Whatever relationship you all intend to make with me will have to wait till after we avert the current crisis. Now run over everything we know.” - Felix
Felix and the girls decided to compare notes on the information that they acquired. Currently, Alecian had turned more than half the guards to his side. During the feast, he would blend in with the nobles and kill the queen while she was preoccupied. This way, he would be able to keep suspicion off him and with the princesses dead, nothing would stop him from obtaining the throne while still maintaining his image of a just soldier. He would have preferred to just marry the queen, but she clearly showed no interest in his advances.
“Aaah typical bad guy cliche, but this wouldn't be the fantasy without it” - Felix
“Wait what is that supposed to mean?” - Launa
"Oh nothing just an inside joke, don't worry about it. Anyway will we need to worry about now is how to stop the assassination from getting your mom. We're going to have to move fast otherwise we may not be able to make it there in time. First things first, we need to get you used to your new weapons and techniques, which means we while we go back to the castle, we're going to fight every single beast that comes on way and each one of you is going to fight it on your own, that that way you can make yourself familiar with using your powers, that way you won't cause the situation to get any worse than it already is. I hope you all are ready.” - Felix
“We already went to the trouble of getting all these things from you the least we can do is follow your lead. We'll do whatever you need us to do.” - Felix
“you'll hear no complaints from me” - Luna
“Not for me either” - Lucy
“Me neither” - Laura
“Alright then, we're moving forward.” - Felix
Felix and the girls headed back to the castle at top speed. Of course, Felix used his powers to attract some of the demon beasts that were within the area. good thing the girls were quick learners. They were a little rough around the edges, but they learned enough to fend for themselves. As they exited the forest, they made a break for the castle. When they made their way to the castle, they soon realized that they were surrounded by the personal guards of Alekay. Not even giving them a chance to fight back, Felix and the girls made quick work of them.
"This sword is impressive. I can't wait to see how far I'll go with this." - Launa
"I will have to research this armor when this is over." - Lucy
"I've finally got the information from one of the guards. Their troops are separated into different areas around the castle. We'll have to separate from here. I'll get to the ball and inform my grandfather. You all get to the areas and take out those guards. Remember to maintain stealth at all times. We don't want to alert them that we're on to them." - Felix

"Are you sure this is a good idea.." - Laura
"You guys know this castle better than I do. Besides, considering how you all fight, I wouldn't find any better hands to leave this with." - Felix
"Thanks for the show of faith.Your trust really makes me feel all tingly inside." - Luna
Using Loki's spell, he shifted his clothes into something more appropriate for the ball tonight. As he entered the main hall, he found himself surrounded by the nobles. using his skills of stealth he quickly zig-zagged his way around the nobles and avoided making his presence known. He quickly managed to find his grandfather who was surprised to see that he made it to the feast on time.Felix quickly explained to his grandfather the circumstances that led him here. When his grandfather found out, to say he was mad would be an understatement, thankfully Felix informed him that everything was under control and that he had to keep calm or the plan would be exposed. With his grandfather informed, he continue to search for the queen and eventually found her by the edge of the window talking with a group of nobles. As she was finishing her conversation, she decided to go out to the balcony to get some fresh air. When she went out she was trying to figure out where her daughters were in and when they were going to get to the ball.
“Goodness, just what our my daughters doing, they should have returned by now?” - Elena
“ Well if you really want to know, you'll be joining them soon enough.” - alekay
“ Alekay, just what do you mean by that, and what are you doing here disturbing my peace?” - Elena
“If it's not obvious to you your highness then allow me to explain. This is a rebellion and I’m the leader.” - Alekay
“ So in other words, you mean to kill me and usurp the throne for yourself.”
“Well look who’s catching on quickly. It’s a shame really. If you had just went on with becoming my wife, I wouldn’t have had to go through such dirty methods.”
“It was because of that personality of your that I could not stomach the idea Alekay”
“Oh you mean unless I’m that deadbeat husband of yours no man will do.”
“You dare!”
That immediately got under Elena’s skin. She immediately took a concealed short sword and went straight for Alekay’s throat. However, he was quick to bend his head to the side. The queen immediately turned the stab into a swipe, but the rebel knight was quick on his feet. Elena proved that she was a great swordsman even without magic, unfortunately the fight quickly came to a close when Alekay knocked the sword out her hand.
“You will eventually meet your end for this Alekay.”
“Oh Elena Elena Elena, if only you were more submissive, then your death wouldn’t have to be this way.”
“Well I don’t know about you, but I find that headstrong nature to be very charming.” - Felix
“WHO”
“FELIX”
“Greetings your majesty, and may I say that dress really does you justice.” - Felix
“Felix, what are you doing here.” - Elena
“ Well, I was busy dealing with some assassins that were attacking these pour defenseless girls in the beast forest and they told me that their idiot leader would be coming to take out the queen. You needn’t worry, the girls are safe and I already informed my grandfather. He should be taking countermeasures real soon." - Felix
“You little brat, are you telling me you took out all those assassins on your own.” - Alekay
“I’m sorry, but extras should really be quiet when he’s not wanted.” - Felix
“Wha-what did you call me!” - Alekay
"Oh was I not clear enough. Then allow me to explain it simply to you. You are insignificant and not worth talking to so shut up." - Felix
"Whyyy youuu" - Alekay
SWIPE
POW
AARGH
One can guess that Alekay did not like getting shown up by a kid. So in his rage he went for a swipe, which Felix already saw coming and easily knocked the sword out of his hand. This was followed by a palm strike to the chin and an elbow to the gut. This left him completely winded. The queen was shocked and also impressed by the boy amazing and flawless technique.
"Lady Elena, I trust you weren’t hurt to badly.” - Felix
“Hardly even a scratch. I’m more concerned about your wellbeing.” - Elena
“As you can see, he couldn’t even touch me.”
“Indeed, I can see that my worries are for naught. By the way, are my girls really alright.”
“I can assure you that you will see them in due time."
“Oh no you won’t” - Alekay
“Oh still conscious are we.You’re made of more tougher stuff than I thought. Or I just didn’t put a little more strength into my attacks.” - Felix
“Joke will you can, My men have still surrounded this castle when they--” - Alekay
He didn’t get a chance to finish his sentence when several colored explosions from around the castle entered his eyes.
“Sorry, but I believe those explosions came were your troops are located. You see when I was searching for you, My grandfather met up with the girls and located all your men. With the skills the girls got in the forest the made quick work of them." - Felix
“This-this can’t be” - Alekay
“Face it rebel leader you lost. And now, I think it’s time to go see to your guest your majesty." - Felix
“Yes, I believe it is.” - Elena
The queen went to go check on her guests while Felix went to go take care of Alekay. Needless to say the next couple of weeks were going to be hectic.
