Job: Guard the Secret Deal! {Solo/Daichi}

"That's more like a type of mission appropriate for my rank," Daichi haughtily cheered himself up after hearing the brief detail about his new mission. He was given a modest, tumbled piece of paper with a complete description for the upcoming job, reading over it Daichi was making simple notes in his mind,: "Guard...Alaxia..1..2..Kill..Pretty straightforward." He crumbled the note in his vigorous fist and quickly hid it on the inside of his clothing. "Alright let's go and meet the "little stick of dynamite," he openly giggled and headed towards Talonia. The usualy, vicious wind was quiet today so it made the travelling a bit easier for Daichi.

Daichi arrived at Talonia within a few hours as he wasn't rushing, having some spare time he distincted to not hurry and rather be a bit late than early. Although after seeing the shorty's enraged personality description Daichi changed his mind and started walking quicker through the hectic streets of Talonia. He was sneaking around the meeting point, impatiently checking the time and blending in with the crows in order to avoid looking suspicious and drawing too much attention to himself. Eventually he noticed a person in a nlack cape which was reaching its ankles with a hood over its head and a red strip going around the edge of the cape, sitting on a bench, staring at the floor. "Because that's not suspicious is it?" Daichi chuckled silently and sat on the opposite side of the bench.

"Alixia?" Daichi grumbled quietly towards the unidentified person and received the response quicker than he finished his question. "Follow me.." she replied, stood up ardently and directed towards one of the side streets. Once they were lurking through the darkness that hid them from people's eyes, she took her hood off and Daichi froze for a second at the sight of her. "Where are the guards, sho-?" Daichi pronounced and realised that the word "shorty" will enrage her and stopped himself at the right moment. "They're a bit..no actually very suspicious, they are very impatient and keep nagging me to show them the explosives, keep an eye on them," Alixia ordered Daichi in a firm, yet soft voice with a manly eye contact.

He nodded at her command and followed her onto the main street, as they stepped in the sun her hood quickly covered her head and she headed towards one fo the fast food shops. Two muscular, noble men were sitting on the chairs, covered in what it seemed like leather armours and each wielding different element swords, but Daichi couldn't work out what element they could control. Both guards examined Diachi from head to toes and smirked at his appearance. Without expressing a single emotion or declaring a single word they stood up and hinted that they are ready to move out. One of the guards took a position behind Alixia, with his hand placed on the handle of his sword and the other guard stayed next to Daichi with his hand hanging candidly by his side.

Alixia lead the way, silently whilst the guard next to her was curiously trying to see what's hiding under the hood, yet he couldn't see a clear picture as he was trying avoid drawing attention to himself, but that didn't really work out. "There's definitely something fishy here...or is it just because they just had fish?" Daichi brickered in his mind and was carefully paying attention to both of the guards, regularly looking at the guard next to him. He could see that the guard who was next to Alixia was definitely more strained and agitated, possible feeling uncomfortable and endangered, but the guard next to him was a complete opposite to him, being more or even too relaxed, underestimating Daichi's abilities and speed offenced him on the inside a bit. "We're here," Alixia said out loud and pointed at the boxes stacked behind an abandoned builing, "Explosives are in those boxes."

Suddenly, Daichi observed how the guard next to Alixia gripped the handle of his sword and began to draw it out as fast as possible. Alixia didn't have enough time to react but Daichi did - he was behind the guard so he didn't see him as he stretched out his leg and kicked the guard in the back, forcing him to fall forwards. Second guard's carefree and imperious behaviour allowed daichi to grab Alixia's hand and jump away from the enemies. "Are you okay-?" Daichi quickly asked, not drawing his eyes off the enemies. "Yeah.. I will support you.." The startled guard, drew his sword out and light up with fire making Daichi realise that he is a fire wielding Rune Knight ant the other guard stood up, and smirked: "You're fast!" He took out his sword, but nothing happened and Daichi got confused as no element appeared around his sword. "He can't be a regular guard - not for such a mission," Daichi thought to himself as he released his sword from the sheath and got into a battle stance.

The swift wind was running around in circles around the area filled up with extreme tension as their eyes were killing each other with their sight, waiting for someone to make the first move. "It's two of them and it's only one of them, it will be hard to defeat them - besides I need to wait for some time for my slash of darkness to recharge before I can use it again," Daichi realised that he will need to hit at least one of them for sure when using his slash of darkness in order to defeat at least on of them. He knew that if he will try to hit both of them with one slash then they will most likely both evade it and counter-attack Daichi which will be really bad for him. "Oh wait...or could I?" Daichi first expressed a grin on his face and then smirked ath the guards. He made the first move and ran straight at the guards, strongly gripping his sword. The guards laughed at his dullness and ran at straight at him as well - but the one of the guys disappeared as Daichi lost track of him.

The guard that was right in front of Daichi lifted up his sword covered in fire energy as it was inducing flame around it and striked it right at Daichi. In response Daichi bent back and started sliding along the ground, placing his palm on the sword and gathering energy in order to create a Minor Shield of Darkness which resisted and stopped the guard's attack, releasing a cloud full of magical energy dust and particles. "Ha!" the other guard shouted as he appeared behind Daichi ready to strike with his sword, but then he realised that Daichi wasn't in the cloudy area. "Got you!" Daichi frowned at their gullible reaction to his rush and gathered his dark power in his sword, releasing a large sphere of dark energy with a name of Slash of Darkness heading exactly at the guards. The cloudy fog stopped the guards from reacting in time and they both got hit by the Daichi's single attack.

Enormous release of energy from Daichi's attack colliding with their elemental swords caused a gigantic cloud of dust to cover most of the ground as Diachi jumped back and hid Alixia behind his back. Daichi slided his blade back into his sheath and sighed quite loud, resting on Alixia's shoulder. "Don't think you defeated me yet!" enraged voice appeared frin the dusty cloud as the guard wielding a regular sword walked out of it and a brutal, earth shield crumbled down in front of him. "So it was an earth blade was it? At least one of them is down.." Daichi thought to himself, grabbing and gathering his blade out again. "You protected yourself with a shield and left your friend get hit by my attack? How cruel..ha-ha" Daichi laughed out loud with an expression of a psycho appearing on his face. "You need to endow something in order to survive in this world," he replied and took his foot of the ground as he rushed at Daichi.

Daichi vigorously stared at the guard rushing right at him, placed his sword back in the sheath and smirked at the guard's arrogance. "What you doing?!" Alixia shouted at Daichi as she pulled his sleeve but he just carried on staring into his enemies enraged eyes. That really exasperated the guard as he screamed and started running as fast as he could. Once he was close enough to Daichi, Daichi created a dark magical circle in front of him and took a step through it - immediately appearing in front of the guard and his first heading at the guards face. The guard's enragement slowed down his reaction and thinking time so he didn't react to the strike - flying away from Daichi's fist into the air and hittin the ground around 5m away from him. "Now he's done!" Daichi pronounced and grinned at Alixia. "Thanks.." Alixia said out to Daichi and ordered Daichi to follow her to the next barn. Daichi got confused but then Alixia revealed that the explosives were hidden in the next barn and she lied to the guards in order for them to affirm their true identities. "I'll deal with the trade, you can go now," she commanded in a firm, yet soft again voice and Daichi headed towards the Guild Hall after his reward.
