❝My light [break]is brighter [break]than the sun!❞
[attr="class","echotemp] It was a warm and sunny day in the Clover Kingdom and Echo and Zeus had found themselves a good distance from home. The two were out exploring in search of a dungeon that Echo had heard many rumors about as of recent. He had heard that many people from far and wide for whatever reason had been coming here to reach this dungeon. This normally wasn’t much for concern as dungeon normally drew crowds of people to try and get the treasure within. However this time was different as the amount of people who had come was far larger than normal. [break][break] The two were currently at the bottom of a mountain ridge, the Dragon Ridge to be specific. Zeus would look up towards the top of the ridge as he would speak to Echo saying “We have to climb all the way up there? Why exactly?” Echo would smirk before he would look to Zeus and say “I heard that a new dungeon is around here somewhere… judging from the amount of mana im sensing from nearby, there has to be something going on.” Echo would then continue to walk up the mountain and Zeus would slowly follow behind him. Zeus would simply let out a sigh as he quietly said to himself “I should have just stayed at the castle…” [break][break] The two Jaegars would be walking up the mountain ridge, and for Echo the immense feeling of mana would grow more and more with each step. By the time they neared the top it was highly likely than even someone who was low in sensory skill could feel such a change in the area’s mana. The closer they got the more the two would be able to hear fighting. The sounds of battle were nothing new to the Jaegars as they had been in many throughout their lives. Echo would look to Zeus saying “It sounds like a lot going on up ahead, you sure you can still keep up with everything?” [break][break] Echo was not trying to belittle his cousin in any way, he was instead truly concerned for his safety and well being. In the past few months Echo could feel the ever growing difference in power between him and Zeus. It was one point in time where the two were very evenly matched in power and skill, but now it seemed as if they were only rivals in skill and technique as Echo’s power had grown far beyond anything Zeus could muster. The question would make the older Jaegar smile as he would say to Echo “Now now, I am the one who is supposed to look after you, not the other way around. Dont you worry about me I can keep up just fine!” Echo would smile as he would continue to move ahead. He needed to say nothing more, he had total trust in his cousin and his abilities after that one simple statement. [break][break] Finally making it to the top of the ridge the two would find the source of all the noise they had heard on the way up. They would find a large amount of people from seemingly all across the map, and they were all there for what appeared to be fighting. The people who cluttered the top of the ridge were all divided with everyone off into their own fights or watching another fight. Echo and Zeus would both simply look around at all the many fights going on in awe, before Echo would let off a devil like grin saying “Oh if this is the dungeon I can tell this one is right up my alley!”
Aya made her way through the Wildlands, or the Dragons Ridge to be more precise. One might wonder what such a meek girl was doing wandering the plains by herself, and the truth was, she had no clue either. She had no want to but was simply demanded. Aya had received a note with a seal that resembled that of a dark raven, a letter from Eclipse Raven, a simple feather was embedded within the letter itself. How it got next to her she had no idea, only that when she awoke in the inn she had booked for the night that it was next to her. It told her to go to the Dragon's Ridge, where she was to a traveling merchant that had been injured in a fight, a fighting ring that happened to be a dungeon of some sort.
The news was odd to Aya and strange, but more so than anything, the news was an eyesore. It was annoying, and she couldn't help but think how much she hated being in these damned organizations at the moment, however, it provided her with a consistent influx of jobs, street cred, and protection which she couldn't openly part with, at least not for quite some time as things stood. She was still too weak, too poor to accomplish what she wanted, what she needed.
Though she knew to traverse the wildlands safely especially as a girl of her stature and size that she would have to journey far and she would have to air on the side of caution. As such Aya decided that she needed to make some money first, a bit of yul in the right hands could acquire one safe passage almost anywhere. Thus she decided to sell her healing skills to whatever bidder she could. Luckily for her, her healing in recent days had progressed further, the voices in her head still screamed with a fierceness that kept her up at night, an annoyance that plagued her to no end. These delusional voices ebbed and flower within her psyche and swirled constantly. Though in recent days they had begun to quell, the volume of the voices seemed to lower by a significant amount by a 5th if she was to put a numerical scale of measurement on it. Though it didn't stop the occasional headaches it did provide a bit more relief and considering she had been plagued by such voices for months now even the volume of them increasing by such a paltry amount was enough to give her some momentary relief.
She went out using her healing at the whims of her voice, telling her to heal this sick person and that person, regardless of what they were willing to pay. Though she would only choose to heal those who paid her an equivalent sum as if to say "fuck you" to the voices in her head which the voices would reply with more chatter as if to call her "ignorant" and "disobedient". Aya, however, had more than enough experience with the voices in her head to withstand their berating. Though whether or not the voices were truly diety, or simply just her the result of her death and coming back to life leaving scars on her psyche had yet to be truly discovered, and truthfully she wasn't sure she wanted to know truth. Though she did opt for the most unlikely option with it being deities because if it was her mind she wasn't sure how she'd put up with it. The mere thought that her mind hated her so much that it would concoct such notions was something that made her shutter, thus she buried such notions deep down for them to never see the light of day, choosing to get lost in her belief. Even if it meant that the same belief was what she deemed what had cursed her to be so persecuted within this damned world.
Aya covered her horns with her long flowing black cloak per usual, and found herself on the back of a carriage now as headed deep into the wildlands, they were a group of rough-looking traders, and she had no doubt that a couple of them were most likely fences for the black market or something similar but even so she didn't mind. They didn't bother her and she didn't bother them, she was stronger than them after all, she could tell that from her meager sensory skills alone, sensory skills that had increased within the last month, figuring perhaps she had gotten more sensitive to the mana around her. Or maybe it could've been the high-pressure situations she had been in like breaking into the clover kingdom royal archives, or perhaps it was fighting the magic knights that had done or a mix of everything that happened. Either way, it had increased the way she could feel the mana, and she was slowly finding out that it was coming in handy here and there.
Aya had joined this traveling caravan of "merchants" though in truth fences when she stumbled across one in a less than a savory area of the wildlands. They had been injured and said they had been "attacked by bandits" though she was sure that those bandits were most likely either completion or magic knights, regardless they needed healing and Aya was happy to help for a fee, and this fee was transportation a certain distance and a simple magic broom to get the rest of the way. Sure she could've taken the broom alright, by why waste mana when it wasn't necessary?
Eventually, as they came to Dragon's Ridge that was as far as they were going, and thus Aya found herself getting out of the caravan having done her fair share of healing for the day, she said her goodbyes. Grabbed her broom and flew, sparring a single glance back before lowering herself down into the trees. Though this was simply to avoid the prying eyes of those "merchants" a young girl like her would sell well in the slave market, so after going in circles a few times to give them the slip and making sure they were no longer tailing her, she flew deeper into the forest before making her way into the sky. That was until she came upon a large mountain. To her understanding this mountain was where a new dungeon had formed, "Martial Peak" was what most people referred to it as, and though she didn't truly understand how the dungeon operated she did know there were many people in it who were involved in the talents of martial arts. Something is rarely seen nowadays in the Clover Kingdom as magic was often the priority rather than physical combat or aspects, though that didn't apply to her after her father Jorah had made sure to impart the knowledge and skills of martial arts to her to make sure she could defend herself.
As Aya flew toward the top of the mountain the mana seemed to intensify, it grew heavier and heavier and she began to wonder if she was out of her league coming to such a place. The looming fear of danger plagued her mind and she wasn't sure if she could handle the assignment given to her, but her job was to heal a couple of people, and she was sure after that she could go. At least that's what she told herself, why these people? Aya had no idea, she didn't question the jobs given to her from the upper echelon of Eclipse Raven, she just did them as long as they were within her power and benefited her in the end. As the mana intensified so did the sound of battle, and as she got to the top of the mountain she found a couple of ledges and opted to climb the rest of the way of what she could with her lacking strength, upon reaching the top, Aya noticed a group of people clustered around in large masses. Shouts could be heard and the clashing of bodies smacking against one another.
She stashed away her broom and moved through the crowd though no one seemed to take much notice of her besides nothing that she was a newcomer, Aya didn't know who she was supposed to heal safely for the fact that they had some type of symbol painted on their body that resembled that of a raven. She searched for them for a few minutes and eventually stumbled across two people, she cast a quick healing spell, they gave their thanks, handed her coin, and were on their way back down the mountain. With a job well done Aya was ready to make her leave, that was until she spotted a familiar red-headed man, a man she remembered from the first few meeting she had when entering Eclipse Raven, he was one of the many men present, all the while she stood in the corner with her black cloak on just as she did now. Though this time she decided to move slowly through the crowd, making her way toward the back of the man and whomever his compatriot was. Perhaps it was time for an introduction to a fellow Eclipse Raven member...

Jin Zhongli

The Wildlands would always be a point of interesting for Jin Zhongli, many of his hopes and dreams for the future were here. It was the perfect place for what he had in mind, mostly for his family. But for other people like them as well, other rogues and people on the other side of the law. This land had the potential to be the land for many, that was Jin's vision and he will see it through. Or die.
Venturing out here for him was becoming more and more common, when he had the free time or when things just sort of popped up and they hit his radar he would make a mental point to come out and see what was going on. Considering this large landscape in his eyes was going to be his future home, what happened within it interested him greatly. Apparently there was a new dungeon that showed it's face in the Wildlands, Jin had now gone through a couple of dungeons himself felt comfortable venturing out and seeing what was going on. He knew there had been orders for people of all kind of sorts to investigate it, meaning he could potentially run into magic knights, civilians and even other rogues. He decided to not take a job for this, simply wanting to explore it for his own curiosity.
Aeila wasn't around at the moment so for now it was just him, and considering the amount of trouble his sentient lantern had been bringing him lately. The rogue decided to leave that home as well, not wanting to deal with it's mouth today. Instead he brought his more useful and direct tools. Dungeons had never failed to be dangerous, usually anything walking around in a dungeon wants you dead or gone. But they never failed to be entertaining he could say that.
Flying towards the dungeons location, on top of his raven golem. White bandages were wrapped around his eyes, instead of his normal black blindfold or pair of really dark shades. Why he covers his eyes, still no one knows. Nor has he really told anyone, the only thing about is it does not hinder him in combat at all. He is able to see just as fine as he normally would, he also did have his sensory to fall back on as well.
After a little of flying up the mountain ridge, the sound of many many fights could be heard. But it wasn't just the sound, it was as if the mana in the air itself was vibrating and the energy that could be felt was intense. The feel of battle was in the air for sure, a small smirk was on Jin's face. Now the white haired rogue wouldn't label himself a warrior in the traditional sense. Most times when he could avoid a big fight he would, in favor of placing himself in a better position to win using other tactics. But that didn't change the fact that Jin excelled in combat, growing up in the House of the Zhongli rigorous physical training was natural and just another regular day for them. Be it weapons training, hand to hand and of course magic combat. He was considered a natural prodigy in all fields. It's how his mother trained them, to be elite and nothing else other than that. But not in body and magic, in mind as well.
Now reaching the top the place was filled with many different fights happening all at once, none seemed to pay him any mind though. A familiar mana signature did hit his sensory though. Looking in that direction, he spotted the guardian of the light himself. Echo Jaeger. His eyes were covered with his white blindfolds what an interesting place to see him here. He was with another person with dark hair, probably a member of his family or an ally. There was another figure much smaller in stature, wearing a black cloak making their way towards them. But Jin decided not wait for that at all.
Jin had his golem land and he hoped off waving at Echo with a smile on his face. "If it isn't the Light Guardian himself!" Jin said out loud as if they were really good friends. Knowing the two didn't really get along well. This was Jin's way of messing around with anyone really. "What a surprise! Is this your get together?" Jin continued with a grin on his face. "This seems like your kinda thing Light boy."
F1R2
Moving forward with his hands in his pockets, Jin was already proceeding to move through the dungeon itself. He didn't walk far though just right where the fights were. The open space was full of many brawls and fights, Jin casually swaying and avoiding getting in-between any. He was walking towards the path that seemed to be the only way forward. Not much worry was on his face, from what he could tell none of the fighters thus far were life threatening. They did possess so pretty good hand to hand combat skill though. Eventually Jin was approached by two of the fighters wearing white gi's with focused and determined looks on their face. They both got into the same combat stance looking at Jin. "Aaahhhh it never fails." he said with a smirk getting into a combat stance on his own both his hands open though.
Without waste the first one came at him, with a dash and full practiced straight punch. His speed was being increased with the wind behind him. But Jin was still the faster and simply did a half step to the side, and in a flash landed a open palm strike to his neck and then head in quick succession taking him down in a matter of moments. The second tried to rush him, but Jin's golem quickly swatted him away with it's wing knocking him away over thirty meters. The golem didn't act on it's own of course, Jin had the golem in the air ready to strike at any time. The rogue did a quick glance over to Echo's location to see what he was up to, then also turning to see what the smaller figure in the black hood was going to do next.

Zeno is a large bird like golem, closely resembling a crow and raven Jin's favorite birds. Zeno stands at 7 feet tall from it's head to it's tail feather. The size of each of it's wings is about 7 feet as well, giving it a 4.2 meter wingspan. Because of it's wide wingspan flying for this golem is extremely easy, and following the transportation rules Zeno can carry two people at a time. While used for transportation it’s speed is 20 m/s. Zeno has some intricate designs on it's feathers and body that stem from Jin's void energy taking a light blue hue. This hue can darken though if need be. Zeno is a golem made entirely of Jin's void energy, making it a fierce attacking golem. Each part of it's body can be used as a method of attack from it's deadly sharp beak, to it's razor sharp wings and it's powerful claws. Also because of it's void like properties whatever items or mundane structures not backed by magic Zeno attacks gets destroyed completely and potentially erased from existence. If Karasu is wielded by a void user then it suffers the strengths and weaknesses of the void element. Following the ammo rules he can summon an additional one with every 50 stat points into control. The maximum number of Zeno’s Jin can summon is four only with the proper control.

❝My light [break]is brighter [break]than the sun!❞
[attr="class","echotemp] Just as Echo and Zeus were about to move forward into what they presumed to be the dungeon, a mana signature very familiar to Echo would pop into his sensory. He would look towards the direction of the mana and look to see none other than the rogue known as J. As he saw the man flying in on his golem all he could do is shake his head. The rogue would greet him by calling him the guardian of light to which Echo would say “You what the hell are you doing here? I hope you don’t plan on getting in my way!” [break][break] In reality it was exactly the opposite as the white haired rogue quickly walked off into the dungeon. Echo would simply look at Zeus and shrug his shoulders before saying “I don’t know… lets just follow him I guess.” Echo and Zeus would then follow behind J as they made their way. The group had to make their way through several ongoing fights making sure not to get caught in between anyone, unless they wanted to be attacked themselves. [break][break] However it would soon be clear that they would be subject to attack regardless of if they got in the middle of a fight or not. As Echo and Zeus still followed behind J they would see 2 men in white gis approach the man and begin to attack him. This would prompt Echo to look around and see 4 men dressed the same way as the ones who attacked J. They would approach and take a battle stance before saying “We are here to challenge you two! Now take your battle stance!” Echo would simply laugh before he would point toward himself and Zeus saying “You guys are here to challenge us? Hate to break it to you pal but I do not think you wanna do that.” [break][break] Echo would simply release his grimoire from its side holster before its page would begin to flip until the right page was found. Echo would form his hand into a fist before extending his index and middle finger before raising his thumb. His hand’s new shape resembled a gun and as soon as it was formed magic would begin to build on his finger tips. Echo would laugh once more before before saying “Light Gun: Scatter Shot!” The magic on his fingertips would fire forwards towards the men, and the magic pellets would cover a very large are, so large in fact that in would interrupt many other fights and kill their combatants. [break][break] Echo would say “See this is why I didn’t want any problems… now I probably just killed like 30 people who had nothing to do with the shit… Oh well I guess shit just happens.” He would then walk forward and stand slightly behind where J stood. He was waiting for the white haired rogue to finish up his fight, but it seemed he actually gave these men the honor of a somewhat fair fight. That was up until the white haired rogue had his golem attack from above. Echo would walk up and lay a hand on J’s shoulder before saying “I think I deserve an answer to my question sir! Did that witch Vel send you here? If so you can tell her I don’t need a baby sitter.”

Aya listened intently to the red-haired man's conversation she was only a short distance off at this point but with the dense crowd of people, she was sure she probably wouldn't be spotted, but even still that was never her intention. So far she had healed a few people for a little bit of yul here and there but the day was getting boring and droll, in the missive she had received she was told there would be plenty more people to heal, which meant plenty more opportunities to make money. However, as things stood the combatants were going relatively easy on each other. Though this could be because from what she was able to gather through the crowds was that these were simply the preliminaries, it was understandable why none of them wanted to do serious harm, whether it be for keeping many of their skills hidden, general good sportsmanship, or keeping from injuring themselves or others for people to look at them with disdain thus making them a target later on. Either way, as things stood, Aya continued moving forward behind the red-headed man and his companion slowly, making sure to keep a distance behind them.
Then another man appeared, he had white hair and was dressed in black, though Aya was sure this new arrival didn't know her, she knew him, or rather of him. He was yet another person she had noticed from the initiation given to them by the leader of Eclipse Raven. The man had ridden in on a rather impressive looking golem, a raven, though she couldn't tell what magic the man used, it looked similar to that of dark magic, or perhaps it was the shadow? Even so, regardless of what it was, Aya's meager sensory skills could tell that just like the redheaded man he was also one of the strongest people in here. She was sure that the white-haired man's golem was something that could kill her if he so commanded it to.
She found it odd that the red-haired man thought the white-haired one would get in his way, was the white-haired man simply here of his own accord, or was he given a reason to be like she was herself? Aya couldn't tell, she didn't know, if anything she thought that perhaps he could've also been told to come here, and given a task to do, whether it was to take down this dungeon or keep an eye on the red-haired man. She knew that she was here simply to heal, and as it stood she was fine with that as long as she got paid for it.
She listened as the white-haired man spoke to the red-haired man, referring to him as the "Light Guardian" and "Light Boy," though Aya was relatively aware that the two were familiar with one another at this point she kept her distance not wanting to disturb their conversation, though it seemed as they all moved forward with Aya trailing behind they wouldn't eventually come upon their opponents. The one with white hair went to one corner to fight two guys, his skills were good, nor did he even use any magic truly. His golem simply swatted away an opponent knocking him away from a good distance and causing him to be knocked out. Aya thought such a thing was rather impressive. Especially as the golem went back into the air, ready to do its owner's bidding. Aya wondered if she would one day be able to make golems, or if she even had the aptitude to do such. Though as things stood she highly doubted it.
Aya had some training in martial arts, but she lacked any true strength to utilize it as effectively as she'd like, however, the same couldn't be said for her speed, it was ever-increasing, and from what she could see of these current fighters, her speed outclassed there's. Aya walked forward, staying only a couple of meters behind the red-haired man, it seemed that her opponents were now also thrown into the mix but instead would be left to face them on her own, the red-haired man.
Then before Aya could enter the ring, the red-haired man took his place in it alongside the other man that was with him, Aya made sure to stand behind the red-haired man, a good distance away as to not get hit in any crossfire that could be tossed out, and as the fight ensued she was grateful she did, in a blink, it was over, a brilliant flash of light and a still silence followed, all but the sound of the red-haired man speaking, taunting, and as Aya glanced around she saw many injured who had been knocked out. A couple of things had been established for Aya then, the guy used light magic, he was strong, and his magic was fast. Both his magic speed and strength far outclassed her own, and the last thing she realized was that the man was an utter fool.
Though the man said he had killed people she was the resident healer in the area and she begged to differ, even her own two opponents or who she figured would be had been knocked out by the blast of the man's attack. Aya walked forward toward the red-haired man, her face flushed with red and anger, the guy had made a scene like an idiot, he had made them a target and put all the spotlight on them. She waltzed forward, moving at a quick pace. She stopped when she got near the man tugging on his shirt, she held a coin clasped in her hand. Of which she moved her fingers to reveal to him, leaving most of her arm and cloak hidden by those around her as to only allow the red-haired man, and the white-haired man to see if they were close enough. She didn't want to advertise their organization, especially after this... Mess.
She was sure with fighters like them there would probably have some area where fights were intense and killing was allowed, but she doubted that here in the preliminaries was the place it should be done. She sighed, putting her coin away, and walked forward and began to chant, her pink mana swelled around her. With her opponents taken out, and two of the four that had attacked the red hair man and his companion dead, with the other two clinging on to life, barely Aya began to chant.
"Spirit of miracles, bestow thy holy touch unto those before thee. O' heavens blessed with light, servants who despise the dark, shine down into the soul, the pure light of thy wings spread far. Please cleanse the soul that rests before thee! Blessing!" As she spoke she clasped her hands together and begins to pray, channeling her mana and focusing it between her clasped fingers before she stretched her hands apart along with the mana forming it into two thin octagonal panels of reflective glass. She then thrust the glass panel outward from her, placing itself above the two injured fighters. Pink light reflected off of it, it began to heal their wounds and injuries, though it wouldn't be enough to heal them with just this one instance of mana, this was all she was willing to do for free to keep them from dying, to give them a bit of good favor for all the damage that the red-haired man had caused.
After she was done, Aya cleared her throat, her cloak still draped over her body, she glanced up at the taller men with anger in her pink eyes. She sighed, before speaking "I suppose this is as good a time to make an introduction as any my name is Aya Von Shurke," she stated in a soft tone, for only them to hear before continuing. The ragged breathing of the two survivors could be heard, behind her, the battle would be in their hands now, she was sure there was some form of remedial medical attention somewhere nearby, they would never be the same but at least they hadn't been obliterated. Aya felt this was simply because they were probably behind the other two combatants and as such, they received significantly less damage. The shine reflected light of her pink glass panels could be seen blazing behind her.
"I see why I was sent here now, your pretty reckless aren't you? That said, I will have to ask that you keep murder to a minimum in areas where it's not allowed. That is if you don't want it getting back to her..." Aya didn't say her name, she didn't even speak in a loud tone, no she only stated what was factual, this knowledge, this foolhardy showcase was exactly what she hated, and it was something that she had in common with the leader of the Eclipse Raven, and she knew Veldora would not be happy with such displays. This man was reckless, and she wondered if the white-haired man was too. She moved back behind the two men, before speaking again. "Well if we're going to continue I wouldn't mind if you'd lead the way, I shall give my aid in exchange for your assistance getting through this dungeon, but if you can't control yourself then I'll be on my way." She stated in a matter-o-factly tone, she was willing to continue, to lend aid, but only if the red-haired boy could keep his killing intent under control, but if he couldn't she had no intention of staying around and getting caught up in his mess, and to sweeten the deal she even offered to heal them. Whether they needed it or not was of no concern to her, it was all she had to offer if they didn't want to accept it so be it.

As Jin watched how Echo engaged in his fight, his hands were in his pockets with a seemingly calm expression on his face. The white bandages he wore usually covered up his facial expression at least on his eyes. His mouth though, made no changes no grin or smirk nor any signs of anger he was simply observing his actions. Echo decided his best course of action facing two of the men challenging them, was to unleash an area of effect spell that would not only hit them but aim to kill everyone else in the arena. It was not a smart move. But Echo was common to not making smart moves from past experiences with him. There was one time they were able to steal the information on the Magic Knights in order to get into the Eclipse Ravens, so he was capable of using his head.
Once Echo's spell ended he walked over to Jin and attempted to place his hand on his shoulder, Jin looked at it for a second and then at Echo. The light mage was asking whether he was sent over by a person named Vel, probably short for another name. Jin smirked and placed his index finger over his lips. "I don't who you’re talking about." was his reply. Whether Echo wanted to believe him or not was up to him, but thats all Jin would say on the matter of the person he just mentioned. Whether Jin knew whom Vel was, was left to him alone.
"But a babysitter? I would like to think you are grown enough to take care of yourself. You’re alive for one, so thats saying something. So no I'm not here to babysit you. Maybe she is, though." Jin said with a gesture towards the pink haired girls, with horns named Aya Von Shurke. She was currently agitated with Echo's decision of trying to kill everyone in the room. Jin was disappointed in him for sure, he thought the light boy would have grown passed this needless sense of violence and bloodshed. It was a shame though, Jin had come across many other rogues would the same taste for violence and blood. They never lasted long, and even if they did they had no allies to speak of. So their lonely demise was inevitable. Seemed like Echo was heading down the same path, Jin expected more of him.
"Luckily enough she was here, to heal the many men you just tried to kill. We can now avoid the countless problems that would have made. You have our thanks Aya Von Shurke." Jin said the last bit of the sentence to her and nodded in her direction. With that out the way, Jin was tempted to leave this place for now and come back at a later time, when Echo was gone. In order to avoid falling victim to his senseless recklessness. The white haired mage took a deep breath and let it out, he was going to make an attempt to stay and continue with the light mage and the Von Shurke.
"Seems like the universe had in plan for us three to take this venture together. I would like to continue. But before that can happen, I guess...guidelines have to be set. Echo. The senseless killing has to be...contained. These are not otherworldly creatures, these are human lives. Murdering everyone here would not be ideal for all of us involved. I'm sure Aya would agree. If we're all in agreement, we should continue." Jin said with his arms behind his back looking at the light mage, to gauge his reaction. Then looking behind the light mage at the few martial artist that were left, they looked stronger than the ones before. And allot more fierce as well. "Looks like some are still very eager." he said with a small smile.
The white haired snapped his fingers, and summoned another golem identical to his raven. Now having two raven golems at his command in the next moment because of his mental commands his golems swooped down and quickly slammed their wings into two of the martial artist, knocking them away. They then swooped around and using their superior speed, to avoid the earthen rock spells being thrown at them struck down another pair of martial artist making it four. Jin didn't have to do much at all, his control over his golems was pin point. He saw no need to overexert himself right now. He was pretty sure Echo was itching to get some action in, he could only hope he decided to reign it in.

Zeno is a large bird like golem, closely resembling a crow and raven Jin's favorite birds. Zeno stands at 7 feet tall from it's head to it's tail feather. The size of each of it's wings is about 7 feet as well, giving it a 4.2 meter wingspan. Because of it's wide wingspan flying for this golem is extremely easy, and following the transportation rules Zeno can carry two people at a time. While used for transportation it’s speed is 20 m/s. Zeno has some intricate designs on it's feathers and body that stem from Jin's void energy taking a light blue hue. This hue can darken though if need be. Zeno is a golem made entirely of Jin's void energy, making it a fierce attacking golem. Each part of it's body can be used as a method of attack from it's deadly sharp beak, to it's razor sharp wings and it's powerful claws. Also because of it's void like properties whatever items or mundane structures not backed by magic Zeno attacks gets destroyed completely and potentially erased from existence. If Karasu is wielded by a void user then it suffers the strengths and weaknesses of the void element. Following the ammo rules he can summon an additional one with every 50 stat points into control. The maximum number of Zeno’s Jin can summon is four only with the proper control.

❝My light [break]is brighter [break]than the sun!❞
[attr="class","echotemp] What a mess Echo had made, in just one move he had killed what seemed like a good chunk of the fighters in this preliminary room. Or at least that was what he thought, however they all clung to life by the smallest of threads, at this point they were almost as good as dead but not truly dead yet. Nor would any of them die other than the 2 opponents who got hit from point blank by his blinding light spell, as a young cloaked woman would reveal herself to Echo and Jin. She would show off the coin of the Eclipse Raven, clearly to show that she was a friendly to the two rogues who already knew each other. Zeus would simply observe with the same blank expression as always. [break][break] After showing her Eclipse Raven coin the woman would seemingly begin to heal all the injured fighters at least enough so that they wouldn’t die. Echo would say to himself *Ah a healer… I wonder if that’s her primary specialization… Healers are always good to have around… noted* After she finished healing the men Echo had almost killed she would begin to introduce herself as Aya Von Shrucke. The name instantly rung a bell to Echo as he had met an old man with the same sir name not long ago. He could recall that the old man had him kill a woman that witnessed a kill job that he conducted, and again at the Eclipse Raven meeting but knew nothing more. [break][break] After her introduction the small pink haired girl had no problem trying to berate Echo for his reckless behavior, before asking him not to do anymore killing unless the area allowed for it. Echo would hold the same ‘gun’ shaped hand towards the girl acting as if he would shoot her next. He would put a smile on his face saying “You got some nerve talking to me like that kid! You saw what I just did to all those people yet you don’t seem the least bit restrained in how you speak to me….” The red headed hunter would lower his weapon before he would begin to speak again saying “You know what, I like you kid. Its been a bit since somebody had the heart to talk to me any way they wanted to.” Echo would then glare over at Jin for a bit, giving him a rather nasty looking face as the last person to talk to Echo in such a way was most likely him. [break][break] Echo would then turn his attention back to Aya before he would put his hand on her head, patting her a few times. “Make sure me and snow head stay alive and I won’t kill anyone else… To be honest do I really even need magic? Probably not.” The hunter would then pull out his white wakizashi before he would give it a single spin and a flick, in an attempt to show off just a bit. As always Jin was a stick in the mud, saying how it was a good thing that Aya was there to heal people, so the group wouldn’t have problems later down the line. Echo would simply look at Jin again with a look of anger saying “What the hell do we care about a bunch of dead idiots for? They knew they weren’t strong enough to be here. You play stupid games you get stupid prizes.” [break][break] Echo clearly cared very little for the lives of the people he thought were beneath him, and this showed clearly. Echo had already had enough of people trying to tell him what to do for one day so he chose not even to acknowledge Jin’s statement on the matter directly. Instead he would simply repeat what he said earlier by saying “I said if she keeps us alive and in one piece I won’t kill anyone, get the fuck off my back!” Just after the red head would say this it would seem that more fighters had arrived as Jin would voice how some are still eager. Echo and Zeus would turn around to see the enemy before them. Jin had his golems take on 2 fighters who looked to be hand to hand specialist types, meanwhile 2 more would step forth but these 2 were swordsman of some sort. [break][break] The two swordsman would approach Echo as he already had out his blade, the red head could only guess that they wanted a fair sword duel. Echo would smile as he would place his sword in his palms before bowing as a sign of respect, and the swordsmen would do the same. “This reminds me of all that samurai training we used to do Zeus.” Echo would then charge forward with the swordsmen doing the same. Echo would draw his black katana as he ran forward towards his opponents, so that he could have one weapon to fend off each one of them. The 3 swordsman would meet and all 4 weapons would clash into each other, a deadlock would commence for a few seconds. As the deadlock between the 4 swords continued Echo would say “You guys aren’t bad bu~” the red head was cut off in his speech as he saw the swords of the swordsman begin to be covered in flames. Echo would immediately disengage from the deadlock as to avoid his blades being damaged by the magic of his opponents. The Jaegar would smirk as he hopped a few steps backwards, he was not expecting magic to be involved in a less than fair duel, but he would simply say “Fine, I can play dirty too!” The Jaegar would then begin to channel magic into his black katana, said magic would then be gathered all upon the tip of his blade. [break][break] Just as Echo began this action he would remember the conversation he had with Jin and Aya just moments before this fight started, and a vision of him saying he would try his best not to kill came to mind. He knew the spell of his black katana was a big boy and he also knew that a spell like that would most likely draws innocents into the crossfire. The Jaegar head would simply sigh before he would recall the mana from the sword, opting to not use that spell but instead use something else. Instead Echo would sheathe his swords before snapping his fingers and saying “Laser Arrows!” Within seconds 2 arrows made of light would be formed in the air in front of Echo. Echo would point his finger towards the 2 magic swordsmen, who had just started to move in on Echo again. The arrows would fly fast towards their target and strike them right in their shoulder. [break][break] The power of the arrows themselves were enough to subdue the swordsmen, but not enough to kill them especially with the location of the strikes. Its was but a flesh wound most people would say, however Echo was not satisfied with his win. Just after Echo finished up with the swordsmen 2 of the hand to hand combat types similar to the ones fighting Jin, had come after the Jaegar. One of these grapplers tried to sneak up behind Echo while the other came from the front, a classic tactic for sure. However such a thing would not work on someone who could sense any living thing within over a 100 meters, and so Echo would stand there as the two men tried their pincer attack. Before the men could close the distance between themselves and Echo, the red head would yell out to his 3 allies “Back away 5 steps!” After Echo said this Zeus would immediately follow the order and move out the way of what was to come. Just as the 2 men had both gotten within 5 meters Echo would clap his hands together and saying the words “Brilliant Radiance”. This would activate a very small scale spell that engulfed Echo in a white aura that was very very hot, just like light itself is hot. [break][break] If everyone present had followed his instructions and took 5 steps back, the space he had created between himself and his allies when he initially started fighting should have been enough to get them clear of his spell. However his two attackers would soon meet a very pain burn all over their body. The pain from such a large scale 3rd degree burn would knock them out cold, at which point Echo would end the spell as to not over cook them. He would kick one of the fighters as they laid flat on the ground, checking to see if the man was alive. As he kicked the man he felt him gasp for air, a clear sign that he was alive. The Jaegar would grin before turning to Aya and saying “See 4 down and none dead… You happy yet?"

Aya's ears perked up as she moved closer to the boy's conversation seemed to go on, they spoke of some woman named Vel, though who that was Aya couldn't put her finger on, though considering she knew both of them were from the same organization as her she assumed it was someone within the Eclipse Raven itself, and from the stature, they seemed to hold this woman in high regard. As such during the overheard conversation she made sure to dial her senses into, she began to ruminate on the context of the conversation itself, she began to associate the name with someone powerful enough to keep the red head man in his place. If that was the case only one person came to mind for Aya, the leader of the Eclipse Raven; the woman she had seen during the time she had gotten into the organization, but the white-haired man seemed flighty, his personality was one who didn't seem to take things to seriously from what Aya could see and if that was the case she had to assume with the way he addressed the red head man that the name "Vel" was perhaps a nickname, but even so it was a starting point for more information...
At her cue being referred to as a "babysitter" Aya moved forward and proceeded to give Echo a piece of her mind, believing that this coincidence of fate was more so something planned out by their leader as opposed to something that was just mere happenstance. Though it very well could've been Aya thought that things aligned a little too much for that to be the case with three of the members of their organization and her own task being one to heal people. As to whom it was she was supposed to heal, Aya didn't know she was simply just told to do so, maybe the big boss figured that Echo would be one with an itch for destruction and thus she was only there to minimize the impact of such as to not bring too much heat down on them in the aftermath. Either way, she knew from this point on she had to stick next to these people...
Though what happened next wasn't something she expected, a threat from the red-haired man, he held his fingers out in an odd manner almost as if like pointing a crossbow at her, and though she instantly recalled this was the same hand motion the man had used to cast his spell his gun that did so much destruction earlier, Aya stood still. Her face was devoid of expression, a poker face as one would call it, and though she didn't look she didn't care in her mind, her thoughts quickly began to circulate, and the primary thing that spoke at the forefront of her mind from her subconscious were simple words, "I don't care," these words echoed in her mind to the point where her shoulders visibly relaxed, in fact, her whole body did as she stood in place. Her whole life she had been persecuted just because of her appearance, because of her family's wealth, there was only one man to ever truly show her kindness outside of her own family. Her eyes gave a blank state, she had been trained not to show fear and emotions in times like this, and when drawing back on her trauma, when thinking about the first time she had died, a spell like the one he had cast before, would be quick, it wouldn't be painful as the last time, and that in itself was enough relief for her not to care if this was the end of her days. After all, it wouldn't be the first time she died...
Then Echo put his hand down, lowering the proverbial weapon as he did so, and Aya found himself gazing up at the man with a blank expression, her voice was even, not even the slightest bit of fear could be heard laced within it, instead, all it would reverberate was a solemn tone, "Now that we've got that out of the way, I say we should continue progressing through this dungeon, I'll stay in the backlines and support from rear when needed, as well as try to prevent any casualties in areas where they aren't allowed if for whatever reason either of you were to go too far. I'm no good on the frontlines as of now, but I move quicker on my feet the longer the flow of battle persists."
Aya watched as Echo turned to stare at Jin with a nasty look on his face, clearly with a dislike for the man to some extent. Aya opted to pay little mind to it, and as Jin spoke about those around still being eager to fight them all she turned to glance in their direction, before walking behind the two men. They were her meat-shields and muscle right now after all, if anything she was just here for cleanup and support. Jin thanked her to which she gave a nod in agreement, it was clear this man had a good head on his shoulders at least when it came to keeping things below the radar. Aya listened as Echo and Jin went back and forth, Jin musing words similar to her own was something she enjoyed. Though it was clear Echo wasn't a fan.
With an unexpected pat on her head from Echo, Aya found herself blushing slightly, how long had it been since someone had patted her head so gently beside her father(s), and her mother. It was an unusual feeling but she quickly moved her head away before getting lost in the nostalgia. She nodded, in earnest to the redheaded man, "I'll do my best, but don't get into the habit of thinking this is free. This is a transaction, you fight for me, and I keep you healthy. Deal?" She stated cocking a glance toward the man's eyes before turning them to the approaching warriors. She watched as Jin and Echo sprung into action, Jin using his dark yet vibrant glowing raven golems to attack with precision and Echo using his physical abilities and spells.
Echo seemed not to like being berated by Jin, though she did like the fact that from his words he was willing to uphold the killing clause in rooms where it wasn't allowed. She watched as the fighting continued, then when Echo was using a spell to punish those would be physical fighters intent on doing him harm, she backed away 10 steps instead of the 5 just to be safe, and she was glad she did, she covered her eyes slightly with the back of her hand, sweat began to prickle at her skin as the heat and light radiating off Echo increased, then when it was done it left. Third-degree burns on the martial artist, knowing this could be fatal, Aya moved forward, clasping her hands together and praying as she had done before, channeling her mana into releasing a spell to heal the two burned martial artists, reducing their burns to that of second degree as opposed to third. They wouldn't be healed all the way but it was enough to keep them from dying or having serious medical complications.
Echo's words amused her, in her mind he was similar to a child looking for gratification for not being a little shit, it almost made her want to chuckle but she maintained a blank expression as the man spoke, and simply mused out the words "happy? No, Satisfied? Yes," to the redhaired man, before giving a sly smile to the man. Things were going at a pace she enjoyed, and she figured they'd be done with this place before dinner at the latest.
Then she moved back to let the remaining enemies be taken care of, it was clear from her view that none of the enemies seemed to be targeting her directly now. Perhaps it was because she was a healer, and in the world of a martial artist, most doctors and healers were looked at as sacred, perhaps it was because they knew how strong the two men with Aya were from their earlier displays and knew that Aya was healing and perhaps would keep them from dying or being seriously injured that kept them from attacking her, in their eyes, there was a good chance she was their only hope at survival and that's just the way Aya liked it...
Elemental Type: Glass Rank & Spell Type: Intermediate | Healing Range & Speed: 40m | 20 m/s Mana Cost: 20 | 10 Stats Effected: +4 Power Applicable Perks: Master Healer Description: Aya clasps her hands together and begins to pray, channeling her mana focusing into between her clasped fingers before she stretches her hands apart, along with the mana into a thin octagonal panel of reflective glass. This glass panel is then thrust outward from her, placing itself above a designated target being either herself or someone else, before reflecting light imbued with her healing mana onto the said target in an effort to heal them. This spell can be directed by her through thin mana tethers, connected to her index finger. This spell heals its target and can heal intermediate wounds and damage. If applied for three (3) posts, it can grow back small digits on a person aka fingers. This spell will actively try to remove any hex, curse, debuff, venom, or poison that might be affecting her or the one she is touching. This spell remains active until Aya either runs out of mana or deactivates the spell herself.

It was obvious at the point dealing with Echo Jaeger was the equivalent to dealing with a spoiled child. If he couldn't have what he wanted, or did as he wanted he would act in a embarrassing manner. Attitudes like this were corrected in the House of the Zhongli before it even had a chance to show it's face. Right after Echo cursed at Jin, he would respond "And I said contain yourself. If she decides to heal you or not. You will contain yourself, or I will deal with you." Jin said to the stubborn brat. If Jin had to kill him right here and now, he would do so. Without a moments hesitation. If it had to be done, he was sure there was allot of people that would thank him for it.
With the four enemies he took down, there was eight left. Jin was hoping Echo and whomever his partner was would be able to finish off their fair share. Aya played the roll of support and healer, so she wasn't going to be taking out any enemies. Which was fine for now, she served a valuable purpose regardless. Looking back from his distance watching Echo fight, as bratty and annoying as he was Jin would admit his knack for combat was..decent. Still wild, still reckless and lacked a sense of honed sharpness from his use of area attacks in the wrong position. An over use of mana perhaps, but maybe he had the mana reserves to sustain it all. He also asked everyone to take five steps back, clearly giving his enemies the insight he was going to use a spell that would reach them in those five steps. It was idiotic and clearly done to try and showboat. Jin was already at least twenty and more steps away. The void mage simply shook his head in the utter embarrassment that was Echo Jaeger.
Once the Guardian of the Light finished and started to brag about his ability to take down four enemies and not kill them. Jin had a puzzled look on his face, his partner did nothing to aid in the fight. And furthermore there was still four enemies to take down, certainly this Zeus character could have fought one or two of them. Jin simply pointed his fingers in the direction of the last four enemies, and his golems swooped in from the air using the superior speed and power. Each raven golem struck two of the enemies, and knocking them out. Bringing the total number of enemies down to zero. Once down Jin placed his hands back in his pockets looking at Zeus and then Echo.
"Your...lackey. He doesn't pull his own weight, why? More enemies attacked us because he is present, and he's clearly able to fight. Do something next time, don't just stand there." Jin said to Zeus before walking towards the next floor. In his mind this was probably going to be the most annoying venture through a dungeon he's ever had.
F2R1
The next floor looked more refined and definitely larger, now it looked more like a massive arena built for combat. But what was the real difference was the large amounts people now watching them. There was an audience of spectators cheering and shouting from the sides as the group made its way to the floor. "I guess the floor below was just the testing ground, and now this is the real deal. Very fun." Jin said smirking, as his raven golems flew in by his side. He looked towards Aya and then commanded one his golems to go towards her. "Feel free to hop on the golem, if you need to." Jin said to her. If she truly couldn't defend herself the golem would not only defend her, but also keep out of harms way. "I would recommend, staying behind us."
After a few moments the group, or rather groups of enemies they would be facing started to pour in on the opposite side. It was a mix of mage like fighters and the brunt fighters as well. None of them look very intimidating, what they did have though was numbers. Jin did a quick count and the number he ended up with was sixteen. Sixteen enemies versus the four of them and one was mainly a healer, that was good odds. It wasn't often Jin had to face such odds like this before, he was probably going to have to put in a little effort this time. One of the the fighters stepped up to speak. "In here we fight to the death, or someone is knocked off the ring which leads to their demise. Come at us with everything, and we will do you the honors of the same!"
Jin turned his head towards Echo. "Did you hear that light guardian, now you can really let loose." Jin said teasing the light mage and his mass murdering tendencies. To be honest it was a relief considering the numbers they had. But now he most likely did have to use his magic, in order to give him the upper hand in this battle. "I'll bring their numbers down quickly." Jin said to Echo and Zeus.
"Now begin!" The fighter shouted at the top of his lungs, igniting the crowd with shouts and cheers.
Before any of them could start running or attacking, Jin's raven golem swooped down and swatted two fighters and two grunts off the ring with both of it's wings taking out four enemies before the fighting had a chance to even begin. The golem flew back into the air before it got struck by a spell.
'Saleos'
Jin held out his index finger from his left hand pointing it at the group, in the next instant created 20 meters in front of Jin a release of red void energy was let loose in the shape of the rotating planet. The spell was devastating and was gone as quickly as it came. Because the spell also was made with sensory in tact, it would avoid hitting Echo and Zeus if they happened to the be in the way. But it did manage to hit at least six of the enemies. Three fighters and three grunts, leaving the total number down to six enemies for Echo and Zeus to face. Jin placed his hands back in his pockets, and at the last minute dodged a spell being thrown at him from one of the grunts. "You guys can handle the rest yeah?" he said to the Jaeger duo.

The size of each of it's wings is about 7 feet as well, giving it a 4.2 meter wingspan.

Also because of it's void like properties whatever items or mundane structures not backed by magic Zeno attacks gets destroyed completely and potentially erased from existence. If Karasu is wielded by a void user then it suffers the strengths and weaknesses of the void element. Following the ammo rules he can summon an additional one with every 50 stat points into control. The maximum number of Zeno’s Jin can summon is four only with the proper control.

Description: Saleos a new and more powerful void rift technique, that Jin can finally use outside of practice. Instead of focusing on a precise split like 'Raim' Saleos is much similar to Oriax in that it instead is used for complete destruction. Being able to unleash the potent destructive energy inside the rift for a 40 meter area of effect attack. When releasing this energy it looks similar to a rotating planet. This rift takes the shape of a miniature planet with a deep red color, that has the circumference of 9 inches. Jin can create this spell anywhere within a 80 meter distance, creating a literal void rift in the space. Jin simply holds one finger out from his left hand while saying the name of the spell in order to activate it. Saleos can appear in an instant like manner due to the nature of void magic, the rift does take the time to form at a position based on the distance of the caster and the speed of a spell of the same rank. If he wishes Jin is able to create a invisible marker within the same range of the spell, allowing him to use the spell at a later time. When used the marker will vanish and need to be recast. The marker takes the shape of a red star, no bigger than a human sized hand. Using his sensory he is able to create a rift and have it home in on a target, Jin is also able to control the path of these rifts with his control. With the use of ammo rules additional rifts can be created, in accordance to his control and he can prevent allies from being harmed by the attack. With more rifts he can create the smaller the rift are so for 1 it would be 40m, 2 would be 20m each, 3 would be 13.3m each etc

❝My light [break]is brighter [break]than the sun!❞
[attr="class","echotemp] Echo and Jin would continue their little back and forth but things would seemingly take a turn, after Jin would call Zeus and lackey and claim that he didn’t pull his own weight. Echo wouldn’t say anything right after the fact but as the group made their way to the next floor Echo was sure to give him a piece of his mind. He would take notice of how Aya blushed when he pat her on the head, but he would reply to her deal proposition by saying “Yeah kid you got it… I wouldn’t wanna see such magical talent she in a place like this hahaha” [break][break] As they would get to the next floor the difference was like night and day. The place was a lot more roomy, and now they even had people spectating over them. Echo would chuckle a bit before saying “Now this is my type of party! I hope we get to kill somebody on this floor!” In truth Echo had to kill as it was the only way he could block out Eclipse and his constant struggle for control. At least this way he could have some control over who died, versus Eclipse who would kill whoever he would choose at that moment. [break][break] After Jin would make a comment about this floor being the real deal or whatever, Echo would scoff before saying “You really are just a comedic relief element aren’t you?” He questioned, making it sound as if Jin was nothing more than a clown. After a small pause Echo would begin to speak once more “Where do you get off calling my cousin a lackey? We could snap your ass in half if you don’t learn some manners!” Zeus would then get in front of Echo saying “My lord no its fine! I should do more…” he would drop his head slightly in shame. As a samurai Zeus did live by a code of protecting their master, but with Echo he did not much like Zeus getting in on his fights as he has said many times that it ‘takes the fun out of it’. [break][break] After Echo would hear Zeus’ words he would scoff yet again. He would look Zeus in his eyes before saying “I will never let some commoner trash disrespect my blood! You should know that Zeus…” It was at that point on the other side of this rather large arena did their opponents all begin to file out into the battle area. Echo would begin to take count of all the enemies as they would begin to speak. He paid there words no mind until he heard the golden word ‘death’. He would hear the man say that they fight to the dead on this floor to which Echo would smile, but remain silent. A few moments later Jin would say to Echo how he could let loose, while calling him that dumb nickname yet again. [break][break] Echo would watch as Jin dealt with the opponents he wanted to deal with, and left him the scraps. Echo would simply shake his head as he watched the remaining fighters charge him and Zeus. Taking his fist and making the same hand formation from earlier, he would aim it towards the opponents running forth. “Light Gun Scatter Shot” as light pellets would fire off filling the area in front of him and Jin. Just like earlier these fighters were also blown away in one go. Echo would then turn and look to Zeus at his rear and say “That is why I tell you to let me fight… I no longer am under your training.” [break][break] Echo would then turn to face Jin before saying “What the hell kind of magic was that? I feel like I know what it is but that means…” he would then begin to laugh ever so slightly after a brief pause before saying “Wow so I really have been right about you all this time… Thats good to know!” The read head would then leave Jin with a simple smile as he would begin to walk forward, with Zeus right behind him in tow.

Aya fixed her hair after Echo removed his hand from atop her pink hair, she wasn't used to physical touching, in fact, she downright hated it most of the time, but the way that Echo had done so was clearly not out of malice, thus she had conflicted feeling about it. She shook her hair, making sure every strain fell back into place, as she held the hem of her hood to keep it from falling off as she did so. She didn't need anyone seeing her horns and going on the offensive intent of taking her out because they thought she was some form of daemon or devil. She had already experienced enough prejudice about her horns throughout her life for her to no longer want others to see them.
Aya looked up at Jin with new reverence in her eyes, the man seemed to have a good head on his shoulders, one that thought of others at least in some form of capacity, he seemed to look at people different the way that Echo decided to, whereas Echo seemed to see most people as easily disposable, Jin seemed to have a conscience about him. Aya enjoyed that, not because she saw things the same, no, in fact, Aya saw people similar to the way Echo did, not as far as to say they were disposable but more like pawns in her grand scheme of becoming a queen. Though she didn't wish to be a queen to rule, no, quite the opposite, she simply wanted to create a place where she could be herself without fear or worry, a place where she could be alone when she wanted to, a place where she could be happy. Though in order to do such she needed two things, allies, and currency.
These two seemed like they'd be a good provider of both. Thus Aya made the mental note to exchange information with them at the end of this whole dungeon debacle. She had an amusing smile plastered upon her face, as she moved forward, she glanced up at Jin, giving him a nod of thanks as they continued onward, having a man near her who was willing to protect her, and from what her meager sensory skills could tell her that he was just as strong as Echo.
Aya glanced over toward the lackey Jin held in question, Aya had to admit the man wasn't doing anything, granted when it came to contributing to the fight, Aya found that she didn't do much herself as both the men were so strong her support truly wasn't needed yet, save for saving those from death at the relentless attacks dealt out by Echo, it was clear the light mage either couldn't handle his own power or never bothered to truly regulate it much because of his trigger happy nature. Aya found herself curious about just what the magic of the sword-wielding lackeys was. Though his appearance seemed similar to those of Hino country, like her own. As for Jin, she couldn't quite place what his magic was, but she did know that she was intent on asking once she got a couple more glimpses of it. It didn't like anything she had seen thus far, but then again, Aya's found her worldly experience had always been rather limited.
Aya glanced up, between Echo and Jin as, Jin had seemed to snap, though before she could but in, Zeus decided to do so instead, claiming that Jin's words were fine and that he should contribute more. Aya figured that unless the man was like her, he should, in fact, do so, mainly because she was just curious to see how the man fought, because as she could tell, Zeus wasn't nearly as strong as Jin and Echo, but was close to reaching at least the base of there threshold, and was still in the same category as her from what she would call her level of ability. Though she knew that getting to the level of ability where Echo and Jin were, was where she needed to head back to, as that was where she was before back when she was blessed by mana, back before the world had turned on her and she had been killed... Only to be denied peace, to see that the life after felt like nothing more but empty darkness, a true hell.
Though as the two boys continued to squabble, Aya would simply let them hash things out, Jin's cool head vs Echo's hot-blooded temper seemed to balance each other out in the end once everything was said and done, thus she saw no need to truly intervene. Though as everyone seemed to have weapons, Aya with the martial arts she did know, found that she didn't have the strength to back up her speed and martial prowess, thus in hand-to-hand combat, she could do very little damage. However, Aya began to remember that this was a dungeon, after all, one never knew what they could find when they reached the end, thus in a Martial Dungeon like this, she was sure that she could find some form of weapon that would suit her at the end of it all.
With them being on a new floor of the dungeon Aya found that this area was unlike the other, the other seemed more like preliminaries whereas this was clearly the main start of some form of tournament, she couldn't believe that there were so many people interested in martial arts that they would bring themselves to a dungeon just to watch people fight with such, not to mention magic. Granted Aya had learned a long time ago from her father that fighting needed to be multifaceted, perhaps the attacks by all the daemons and all the wars that Clover had gone through had progressed the world into a new age of development, where the magic in and of itself was simply no longer sufficient on its own. As evident by the weapons, everyone in her group seemed to hold, save her.
"Yes, it seems so," Aya said to Jin as he mentioned that the earlier floor was nothing more than a testing ground. Though she chuckled a bit to Echo saying that Jin was the comedic relief, she found it refreshing. How long had it been since she last laughed? Then as she turned to Jin once more, the silver-haired mage directed one of his golems to her, suggesting that she hop on to it. Aya gave a curt nod and mused the words "thank you, I'll take you up on that offer. I can support from afar, I'll be keeping a lookout if anyone needs assistance, though it seems you two should be fine for now, if anything I would have to support only one for now," Aya said as she glanced over at Zeus there was no malice in her eyes or tone, it was simply the fact of the matter, if the man decided to fight he at the very least wouldn't have to worry about getting too damaged, or staying that way anyway.
Aya nodded to Jin's recommendation, as she sat on the golem, she stroked the side of it carefully, feeling the tingle of its mana between her fingers. Though the beast made of mana was solid, Aya couldn't help but feel a sense of danger from it. If anything, Aya enjoyed the shape of these golems, thinking that ravens were interesting creatures. Though she found herself curious about what Jin's magic element was.
Hearing that this area allowed killing, Aya turned to Echo giving him an approving nod, at least the red-haired man could let loose if he wanted to, as long as he only killed the targets that they were all facing and not innocent bystanders like the ones she had to save earlier.
As the fighting began Aya watched as Jin sprung into action, taking out a number of enemies simply with his golem, a quick swooping motion and a flap of its wings took out most of the enemies before it was struck by a spell. Then Jin used another technique, one that made Aya's jaw drop in surprise, the technique seemed to happen almost in an instant, with a simple point of his index finger a red rotating planet appeared engulfing the enemies and leaving literally nothing behind. Aya felt whatever words she could've muttered get caught in her throat. She looked at Jin in shock as the crowd around them went completely silent, once again muttering before erupting in loud cheers.
"Wow..." Where the only words, that Aya could mutter as she glanced at the silver-haired rogue, Aya knew that people had to be strong to be in Eclipse Raven, but she was beginning to look at the organization with no reverence as so far everyone she had met were powerhouses in their own right, from Mania, Echo and now Jin. Aya had to resist the urge of chuckling madly, thinking about the potential uses of those within her elk. Things were over swiftly as Echo used the light spell that he used earlier to quickly sweep up the rest of the enemies.
F2, R2: 422
As they moved forward, Aya glanced around as they left the earshot of all the loud cheering, it was clear that the light mage and whatever hell kind of mage Jin was had left a lasting impression. Aya glanced around as they seemed to pass by some small buildings, a shrine, and a variety of flowers and trees. The area looked serene and scenic, and she could see herself settling down roots in a place like this if it wasn't for the fact that it was a dungeon.
Eventually, the group would get to a new area, making their way to a path that brought them to another building and a fighting space. Though unlike before as they looked around they would find people in black gi's that seemed to act like referees that were facilitating the fights. As the group of 4 entered one side, via an announcement from the referee who simply referred to them all as "new challengers," to the sound of more cheering and jeering from the crowd in bleachers that were on either side of the area they were in.
Then next the referee announced the arrival of 12 challenges, which Aya thought was no odd number, perhaps it was because they simply arrived in the dungeon and started fighting right off the back, or maybe it was because of the sheer strength of their group but Aya though the number of challengers always being three times as much as their own or more was rather unfair, though considering the strength of Jin and Echo, she felt sorry for the challengers more than she felt concerned. Aya simply sat back on the golem, curious as to how Jin and Echo would take care of these enemies. Though as the momentum of battle seemed to rage in her ear, she felt her blood boiling, a want to stretch her legs even if it was just to run around or dodge, but for now she simply let the urge build, and focused her mana on supporting Zeus, clasping her hands together, regulating her mana flow and beginning to pray in the case that healing was needed.
Aya wasn't the best in hand to hand combat, but her healing more than made up for it, thanks to her control and regulation of her mana, Aya always seemed to be at full reserves, not once during the dungeon had she been less than a full tank for anything more than less than a minute. That was where her true strength lay.

Dusting himself off, Jin found amusement in Echo's response apparently he didn't like the idea of his lackey being called out for doing nothing. And it triggered a pretty aggressive reaction, which was typical and not surprising. One because Echo's personality would leave it rather easy to tick him off given his overwhelming sense of pride, and secondly Jin had a talent for getting under the skin of others when he wanted. It was easy for him to find 'weak points' in someone’s psyche, and thus manipulate it to his liking. Jin dusted himself off while looking at the two Jaegers "You two can snap me in half? Haha. Yeah sure. You two probably struggle to snap pencils." Jin replied to him. The white haired rogue was pretty confident he could kill both of them without much effort on his part.
But Echo's next comments Jin found even more intriguing, he stated he would never let some commoner trash disrespect his blood. For one Jin wasn't a commoner, but Echo would never know that so Jin just let that one be. He would rather be looked at as a commoner if he was being honest, his last name would be known by next to no one outside of the family itself. But the more important part was, why did it matter? If he was a noble would he then be allowed to disrespect his blood? I'm pretty sure he wouldn't, so it didn't make much sense to Jin. "Soooo...If I was a noble I could disrespect your lackey? If a Ravencrest came over and said you and you’re lackey smell like shit, that would be ok because of their noble blood? Mmmmk noted. I see how your mind works guardian of light. I don't agree with it, but I see it. To each their own." Jin said clearly mocking him and his cousin further. The white haired rogues could clearly careless for how Echo felt or thought about anything.
Apparently Jin's use of magic had created quite the spectacle as the large crowd watching them was taken aback by his his instant like spell. Jin wasn't a fan of drawing attention to his magic, but for now he had no choice. He couldn't go forever without using his magic, he did have something in his favor though. It was hard to tell what his element actually was. He's had access to the void element and it's abyss like spaces for as long as he can remember. But it always resembled spells of cosmic like origin, when he was younger he thought it was the same. But his mother informed him that it wasn't that his element had an odd feature of looking similar to cosmic like magic another rare element but not as rare as void. He was told this was a benefit as it would be hard to distinguish between the two.
A big smile was on Jin's face when Echo asked what kind of magic he had. "Don't worry about it." he said in a jolly tone of voice. Walking towards the next area, it was a rather long path that involved fauna and other small buildings in between some mountain like terrain. There was also a shrine which at first seemed out of place, but the more he thought about it the more it made sense. This was a place of fighters, martial artists and people who thrived and respected the pure aspects of combat. Jin could respect that.
As they kept going they would eventually reach the next area, and to no surprise it was another fighting like space. This time there was referees on one side of the area, and they announced the new challengers when Jin, Aya, Echo and Zeus arrived. Shortly after that though whom the group would be fighting greeted themselves on the other side of them, again their numbers were allot. They were definitely aiming to use numbers in order to beat them. From the power Echo and Jin displayed this far, it made sense. They were also taking into consideration that Aya and Zeus was there. Jin turned towards the healing mage for a few, she was still on one of his raven golems. "I might actually make use of your healing talents this time. But we'll see." Jin said with a smirk, this time he planned to get a little more hands on. He could use another wide area spell, but that would be no fun. Also Jin did like to engage in pure physical hand to hand combat most times. Right after he said that too Aya, Jin rushed in with a blinding like speed.
One of the fights was aiming to hit Jin with a large sword made of water, But the rogues speed was much to fast to be hit by such an attack. His left fist connected with the fighters face first, and he followed it up with a strong knee to his gut knocking him out. His next target tried to attack him from behind, but Jin's free raven golem was right there to protect him swatting the fighter away with one of it's wings. Using a mana tether Jin commanded the golem to fly forward, using it's wings to strike two fighters down and knocking them back pretty far. Jin himself ran forward and using his golem as a launching pad, he jumped into the air pulled out his long dagger カラス Karasu and tossed it with precise accuracy and it hit one of the fighters right in the shoulder before he could finish activating a spell, and as the rogue came down he landed a dive kick right on his face knocking him out in a rather brutal way. Jin stood up his raven right behind him, as he rotated both shoulders getting a nice work out in with a smirk on his face. He turned his head to Aya and from the look on her face, she looked like she wanted to join the fight. "You sure your not a fighter Von Schurke?" he asked her as he gestured to a fighter she could possible face. But if not he was sure Echo and Zeus would take them out.

Each part of it's body can be used as a method of attack from it's deadly sharp beak, to it's razor sharp wings and it's powerful claws. Also because of it's void like properties whatever items or mundane structures not backed by magic Zeno attacks gets destroyed completely and potentially erased from existence. If Karasu is wielded by a void user then it suffers the strengths and weaknesses of the void element. Following the ammo rules he can summon an additional one with every 50 stat points into control. The maximum number of Zeno’s Jin can summon is four only with the proper control.

Description: Saleos a new and more powerful void rift technique, that Jin can finally use outside of practice. Instead of focusing on a precise split like 'Raim' Saleos is much similar to Oriax in that it instead is used for complete destruction. Being able to unleash the potent destructive energy inside the rift for a 40 meter area of effect attack. When releasing this energy it looks similar to a rotating planet. This rift takes the shape of a miniature planet with a deep red color, that has the circumference of 9 inches. Jin can create this spell anywhere within a 80 meter distance, creating a literal void rift in the space. Jin simply holds one finger out from his left hand while saying the name of the spell in order to activate it. Saleos can appear in an instant like manner due to the nature of void magic, the rift does take the time to form at a position based on the distance of the caster and the speed of a spell of the same rank. If he wishes Jin is able to create a invisible marker within the same range of the spell, allowing him to use the spell at a later time. When used the marker will vanish and need to be recast. The marker takes the shape of a red star, no bigger than a human sized hand. Using his sensory he is able to create a rift and have it home in on a target, Jin is also able to control the path of these rifts with his control. With the use of ammo rules additional rifts can be created, in accordance to his control and he can prevent allies from being harmed by the attack. With more rifts he can create the smaller the rift are so for 1 it would be 40m, 2 would be 20m each, 3 would be 13.3m each etc
Aya took in the surroundings with a bit of awe, she couldn't believe that these buildings were here among all the flora, looking as if they had existed for over decades now. Yet, this tournament and such had seemingly sprung up overnight to her knowledge. From the small bit of int gotten before the location apparently, the place was actually a dungeon, heavily packed to the brim with people. This is because of a lost art, the art of physical fighting that so rarely would partake in nowadays. Though she did hear that lately, more and more people had begun practicing such again, which wasn't a surprise to her. After all, with the looming threat of daemons and the previous wars, now was the time when most tried to gain strength in all manner of ways. It made sense to her, and considering all one would need is the knowledge of the location and broomstick it was an easy area to get to, much like how she arrived.
Granted as Aya moved throughout the mountains path filled with flowers, trees, and all other types of fauna that seemed to have a resemblance to those that she could faintly recall from her time as a child in Hino Country. Knowing this place was a dungeon made it unpredictable, she wondered if the people they'd fought so far, and if the people at the end of the dungeon itself, the last fight, made him curious as to whether or not they too were simply creatures created by the dungeon, mimicking that of a human appearance, but the more she put her mind to such curiosities the more she found herself getting a headache and ultimately decided that it wasn't worth thinking about too much. After all, as long as they could defeat them, and after did not doubt plays of both Echo and Jin, Aya had no doubt in her mind that they could. Aya watched the ongoing banter between Echo and Jin, and as she did she found herself curious about just who actually would win in a fight between the two of them. So far she had seen Jin use magic that could deal direct offensive damage much as Echo had displayed, but in addition to that Jin was also capable of using golems, and she wondered how Echo would fair with such, however, as Jin spoke in retaliation to Echo's threat, she titled her head in curiosity. Not at Jin but at Zeus, curious if the man was truly strong enough to even touch a single strand of his silvers hair let alone snap him in half. Granted she thought the fight between Echo and Jin would be a sight to see.
The talk of nobility and such was something Aya didn't pay too much mind to, nor did she play into Jin's playful withholding of his magic element. Mainly because she didn't truly care, if anything it was strong, and his skill with utilizing it was proficient, thus she didn't care much more for anything else besides those two things, and quite frankly, it was none of her damn business. If Jin was to tell her what it was freely then she'd listen intently, and if not then it would remain a mystery until it wasn't.
Watching the referees as they announced the fight and rules even going so far as allowing killing in this area, or victory by knockout she figured Echo would be excited as he would finally be able to cut loose.
Aya watched as multiple people entered the area to fight. Introducing them and the others in a grandiose manner, Aya wondered figured that the refs were most likely a creation of the dungeon. Aya sat atop the raven golem Jin had created, as she glanced down at the martial field around them. "I'll be ready", Aya said as she began to channel her mana, circulating it within herself, ready to chant and utilize it at a moment's notice. However, as Jin rushed into battle, quickly dispatched 5 of the enemies. Though Jin's skills were impressive to her, they weren't surprising. Though she did enjoy getting to see more of what the man was capable of.
As she watched, Aya found herself getting riled up, wanting to join the fight herself, wanting to test out the martial arts that her father had once taught her in the past, but she figured it was better left up to the men. That was until she saw both Echo and Zeus making their exit. They didn't utter a word, instead, they just left, much to Aya's shock. What about their agreement? What about the killing? Had they been called away by the leader of Eclipse Raven with some form of transmission? She yelled out to ask what was going on but before the words could even fully leave her mouth they were gone, Echo used his blinding speed and quick magic to leave the area with nothing more than a simple uttering of forfeiting his portion of the fight to the ref and subsequently causing the numbers of opponents to have dwindled. Many of the opponents of whom decided that after seeing Jin's display this was an easy out, without having to risk bodily harm.
All save for the unlucky one that was left. Aya smirked at Jin's question, there was only one enemy left, thus she figured, why the hell not. With a sigh, Aya lept from the raven golem as it, hovered, a few feet from the ground. As she did Aya thrust both her palms outward in a hand gesture made by extending the thumb and index fingers, leaving the other fingers closed to create a triangular shape. Pink mana gathered in the open space of her hand forming a pink triangle translucent. She leaned forward while kicking her feet backward as she spread her hands apart, the mana shattered like a broken mirror into hundreds of small glittering shards that draped around her body like a pink glittering cloak. Completing her rotation from her flip just as she came downward, Aya landed on the ground with both feet taking a small knee as she did, and placing her hand on the ground to keep herself leveled and from tipping over. Her legs and arm stung and were bruised as she did, though one wouldn't notice thanks to the cloaks covering. Though she noticed her magic wasn't as strong when she didn't chant a prayer and call out the spell, this was still satisfactory.
After all, Aya was still a petite girl, and jumping from that height without the strength or endurance to back it up was bound to rebound in some form of physical damage, luckily for her, the cloak was made to defend and heal, and as she lifted herself into a standing position her wounds had already healed, bruises and pain gone as if it had never happened to begin with. Aya spoke aloud to Jin, "I doubt I'll be able to take out more than 1-2 at a time, but I'll try my best to make up for the slack of Echo and Zeus being gone."
That said the fight resumed, and Aya rushed forward, much faster than the martial artist had anticipated from the young girl, using her momentum and weight, putting each foot in front of the other, Aya darted forward like a pink missile intent on hitting its target. The cloak obscured her movements beneath the cloak as she did, and she planned on using that to her advantage, the man tried to put up his guard, and activate his magic but he was too slow. In a quick instance, Aya lifted her leg from the ground, rotating her body bringing her left foot down atop his head, stunning him with pain as she did. A crack resounded out, and before she landed she used the momentum of her rotation to do another one, this time locking her legs around the man's neck squeezing hard enough to cause some light bruising, and throwing her body behind him, using her lack of balance and weight against him, causing him to flip over onto his back with a thud. Her flip had caused damage to his neck and back.
She rolled as she hit the ground and released her leg lock, before standing back up. After which she simply stomped on him four times, besides the body shots she landed two hits near his face that ultimately finished him off. Having stomped him once in the throat, and the other directly onto his right temple. She had no qualms or morals that plagued her in terms of hitting a downed opponent. She walked calmly back over to Jin. She tried hard to keep a satisfactory grin off her face, not one to truly want to show what she felt to others. Unfortunately, things didn't plan out that way and so with a large grin, she looked up at Jin "Well, I guess we can move on now." She said just as the ref had announced them as the winners and directed them to the next area.
F2, R3: 630
Making her way forward Aya released her spell letting the glittering pink cloak fade out of existence as if it had never been t, here to begin with. Aya was curious to see that the next area didn't seem like a fighting arena. No, this was a simple pagoda-style building, being that black and color. A traditional building if she had ever seen one, making her way inside alongside Jin, she looked around. Only to see various groups who seemed to be nursing their wounds. However, unlike the large numbers before, these were severely widdled. As she looked around she could see there only seemed to be about 2 dozen people, though many of them looked far worse for wear than she had thought.
It was clear that she and Jin had quickly caught the attention of many of them, mainly because out of all of them they looked absolutely fine. Not a single blemish or scratch seemed to adorn them unlike the others some of whom had numerous cuts and bruises, and a few sporting broken bones. Aya smiled gleefully at the sight, she turned to Jin, "I don't know what the whole deal about Echo and his ward leaving were about but I feel like we should be able to continue onward on our own," Aya said as she turned her attention back to the injured littered about her.
Workers walked around with gauze, giving basic first aid, tea, and snacks, Aya didn't feel like partaking in any of it, not to mention long ago she had been taught not to eat or drink anything she hadn't made herself or had seen a trusted person make. Doing such in a dungeon for sure was out of the question as she didn't know if something more could be at play. After all, though this had been the very first dungeon she had ever entered, she had heard many horror stories about how dungeons could be downright unpredictable.
Aya found herself, cracking her knuckles as she walked forward, she took a deep breath and put on the most warming smile she could underneath her cloak that hid her horns. Her pink eyes shining with mana, Aya shouted out, "I'm not sure if any of you remember me from earlier, but I'm a healer. That said, for a fee, I am willing to heal your injuries to the best of my abilities. However, the extent of the healing will vary based on your amount of payment." Aya said with a toothy grin, many people seemed interested that was until she stated what the prices would be, "100 yul for heavy bruises and cuts, 300 yul for broken bones. This is, of course, per limb." Most people who had been rushing over had stopped in their tracks, calling her a cheat, and saying it was extortion. To which she simply replied, "that's fine but you've all seen what this man can do, no?" She said pointing a thumb back at Jin, "If you want even a smidgen of a chance against him, then you'll need to be in tip-top shape after all." She said her toothy grin widening further.
"I'll tell you what, the first 2 people to come to me for healing get half off." Two people approached her, realizing that her words were right, they handed over their coin, and with it, Aya began counting the money, after which praying, her pink glassy mana spreading throughout as she healed the first two of their cuts and bruises back to full health. She hadn't any idea of what the true prize for this competition was but she figured it had to be something more than just bragging rights, and thus why wouldn't someone get the healing they needed for a better shot of not just fame, but fortune...
