Truly the fight had begun between the two Meta's with a swing from both parties. However the Lord's focus had grown to prove his mastery of close quarters combat. But what he had not anticipated was his blade catching momentarily within the others, dragging his blade away before finally cutting through and only to have his knee kicked in once more. How much damage would his leg endure at this rate?
Although the powers had been drawn from them both, the strike was still enough to drop Tetsue to one knee while the other extending outwards, stretching out a cramp that had formed under his bruised flesh. But not all was lost for the skilled warrior, for while he had but a second to rest and adjust, he rolled to the side, extending his sword out to scath the side of the monsters extended knee as it pulled back.
Though due to Tetsue rolling, he was unable to cut through the entire limb, meaning only a fragment of his blade was able to seep through the hard flesh of the beast, only delving a couple inches into the massive limb. Quickly he climbed back up to his feet, though bending his left leg slightly in place, relieving the pressure upon the ever wounding muscle within, trying to preserve his movements as to not further damage it.
It is here that he stood, drawing his sword to rest upon his back with the handle protruding over his right shoulder. His legs bent low with his right extended forwards and his shoulders hunched over, staring darkly at the beast in preperation.
"You will need more than cheap tricks to kill me...fowl beast." he spat, his left eye fully closed now due to some swelling as a trickle of blood from his scalp overlapped it.
Name: Tetsue Yanagita Rank: Lord of the Xenom Desert. Tier: High / Capable of God-Tier
Race: Mokushi*
Height: 7'5" Weight: 120kg
Hair Color: Red Hair Style: Shoulder length, messy.
Eye color: Teal
Physique: Lean, toned.
Personality: Years of solitude within the realm of the Xenom Desert had pushed the Lord of the Sands to the brink of insanity. It had been decades since the halls of the Xenom Temple had carried voices and had left him with only himself and his thoughts. As a common soldier he bore the flag of Xenom with pride and honor, distributing their justice across the lands. However, after war upon war had smacked against the morale of Xenom Tetsue remained the last loyal Soldier, inheriting the throne from his Master. It was here that the blood hungry warrior turned over a new leaf, letting his hatred and arrogance die down as he settled as the new leader.
He took in a plethora of students, to which many would fail. He put in every amount of effort he could into keeping his Land alive and instead stepped down as its leader and took up arms once more to become it's Primal Guardian. For as long as Tetsue remained at the helm of Xenom it would live and he dedicated his life to this goal. He would allow someone else to lead, though to be their adviser and General as well.
Now, the socially deprived Lord has awoken his blood thirst once more. Again shall his cleaver feast upon the flesh of his victims and he will delve into the darkness of war. This, is the apathetic Lord Tetsue.
Attire: Tetsue adorns rather simplistic clothing - a cut off Metashi* vest that ends with his pectoral muscles and a black hakama upon his lower body. His feet bare, his belly exposed and his arms naked for the winds and terrain to caress. He never really needed anything else.
However, upon the back of his stone vest lay the mark of the Xenom Desert; An ivory hued hour glass, tilted to the left with crimson grains spotted within, representing the sands of time that the Desert has and will survive.
Weapon(s):
God-Eater (8): The God-Eater is a colossal weapon forged in the depths of the Mokushian planet's core. In length, this monstrosity is ten feet in length and a foot across while holding only a single edge, like a giant cleaver. It’s weight is nothing to laugh at either, coming in at multiple hundreds of pounds.
However, these features are nothing more than child’s play compared to its true purpose; this giant weapon is nothing more than a sheath and a seal. An edged sheath. Composed entirely of Black Metashi it was forged to be the container for Tetsue Yanagita’s slewn God’s, preventing their escape or to allow their uncontrollable power to run rampant. It is here in the void of its inner workings where an entire universe exists, solely built for the capture and consumption of Deities.
Anguish (9):
Perish (10):
Desire (7):
God-Killer (8): The God-Killer is what keeps the God’s within the God-Eater within, locking into place at the base of the sheath where only the handle can be viewed - making the two appear as one giant blade to be wielded by Lord Tetsue.
However, upon unsealing the blades it holds a pure Crimson Metashi state of existence as a double sided long sword with only five feet of length upon it with a robustly spiked guard to click into place at the base of the God-Eater. It is this blade that holds the power to slay Gods themselves with its sharpness, capable of cutting on a molecular level to which even the scales of a Demon would be splintered.
Abilities:
Yuuseigan: The Yuuseigan is a bloodline eye technique passed down through the ages and genetics of the Yanagita family, a tool to be used in utilization with their natural Kinetic Energy Manipulation. It forms by darkening the schlera of the eye to black while the iris turn red and a gentle haze, like a mist, formulates over the eyes.
It is at this critical moment where the air around the user becomes distorted in the shape of a bubble around the user. Anything, upon entering this nigh invisible bubble, begins to suffer a loss of momentum as the kinetic energy is absorbed through the molecules in the distorted path and brought into the user.
Within this bubble there is no such thing as one person having an advantage over another for the energy that formulates within the user is drawn out and given to whatever has infiltrated. Both parties then begin to share an equal level of kinetic energy and momentum, leaving only skill to be the definition of the outcome.
With focus and concentration the bubble may expand, covering entire metropolitan cities with this distorted energy, leaving nothing but true equality to spread through the warriors.
Kinetic Energy Manipulation: A skill that has been taught to the Lords and Ladies of the Mokushian Empire to which any form of movement that occurs within the body becomes amplified, or completely depleted, at the whim of the wielder. To even move a finger and release the energy built up within the joints could have the Lord flick a car across a city with ease.
It is with this gift that he is able to enhance his speed and strength of physical attacks by building up and releasing these large quantities of kinetic energy within his joints. Lord Tetsue has been seen to break the sound barrier multiple times or cripple leviathans with simple pulses of released energy.
Battoujutsu; Falling Moon and Rising Sun: This particular brand of Battoujutsu was developed by and for Tetsue and his God-Eater. The massive sword, in truth, is nothing more than a bladed sheath carrying not only Tetsue's God's within, but an entire universe. Keeping this void from spilling into the realm of men is a smaller long sword labeled the God-Killer which clicks into the base of the sheath, much like a seal. This is essential to this Battoujutsu.
The technique itself is an over the shoulder Battoujutsu that requires an immense amount of speed and skill to unleash. The user bends his knees with his dominant leg forward and his shoulders hunching over. With the God-Eater resting upon the back and the handle hanging over the shoulder the user utilizes as much speed as he can to unlock the sheath, pulling it up to be completely horizontal upon the shoulder while the long sword is pulled out into a downward crescent slash. The user then, once the whole motion has gone through, completely reverses the slash right back into the sheath in the exact same motion, except this time from the users side.
This effect of withdraw creates a vacuum within the mouth of the sheath to pull in much like a vortex rather than expelling the inner God's. This technique's main function is to wound or kill the intended target, draw them in with the vortex and if they are strong enough to not get sucked in, be slashed apart a second time which would normally result in death. This is entirely a counter-attack Battoujutsu.
Natural Attributes:
Strength: As not only a Mokushian, but a purebred, Tetsue Yanagita holds a natural gift of extreme strength to be able to wield his Stone weaponry that can weigh hundreds of pounds with ease. If it were not for his natural birth right. Heat resistant: Life on Mokushi is that of a difficult one, with three suns looming constantly over the world there is never nightfall. Instead the planet is heated to unbelievable temperatures where nature has been forced to evolve to embrace the heat. Mokushian’s are no different. Their naturally tanned flesh is a result of evolving with the heat, allowing them to be surrounded by pure magma without even breaking a sweat.
Metashi*: Metashi is a special type of stone found only upon the Mokushian home world. It’s natural state is crimson red, however the Black Smiths of Mokushi have found a way to condense this stone into weapons and armors. Using the heat of the Planets core, miners have dug down to build a massive forge to which the pressure and heat would aide them in weakening the incredibly durable red metashi to forge their tools, to compress the material to which they only darken the more they are condensed.
Armor and the core of weapons are composed of Black Metashi, while the edges of blades hold their natural red state to hold their sharp nature. And considering their stone nature they are beyond heavy. Some armors weighing up to a tonne upon a soldier’s back.
They hold no electrons so they are entirely resistant to electricity and lack any form of conducting materials, allowing wielders of this material to be immune to electrical attacks so long as it strikes the armor or weapons.
In it's Black state it is nearly indestructible, able to withstand the pressure and heat of a planets core - the only logical conclusion is another Metashi material in the same state could be capable of damaging it. However, the crimson state is much more frail, but still nothing to be mocked. Capable of slicing titanium in twine it still holds lethality.
Mokushian*: Mokushian’s are the evolutionary definition of superiority. Born through the harshest of environments they have overcome and survived turmoil that have erased entire civilizations and through this pride they have outlawed breeding with anything outside of their race. Hybrids are naturally condemned to death.
They naturally have tanned flesh, are raised to just under 7 feet of height and are born with the reddest of hairs. This species has been bred specifically to be warriors so only those, as infants, that bare the natural strength to survive on this planet are granted permission to exist. With this in mind, the heat and pressure and blood lust that run through the species could easily overcome and infant.
History: The only History you need to know is the legacy he will leave upon this world. How he arose from a common soldier within the ranks of the Xenom Empire and through his loyalty and devotion was promoted to Leader of the Empire. How he had taken on dozens of students to take his place and only have all of them fail through death or desertion to which he has been forced to remain at the head of the family.
All you need to know is soon, like the civilizations, races and species before you will kneel at his feet, begging to spare your existence. And in that moment, he will look into your eyes and watch as you realize that no amount of begging, no amount of pleading or tears will stop his blade from entering your skull and coating his walls with your blood.
All of you will fall. All of you will die. There is no stopping the God-Killer Lord Tetsue.
The Lord listened intently, taking in every word the Baron had to say. It was clear to the Lord that the beast understood the situation, that he understood that powers and strength were no longer relevent. At least, so long as Tetsue willed it so. And yet, the beast still wished to fight. It was admirable, at minimum and if it weren't for the fact that Tetsue had every intention of killing and claiming him as a collection with the rest of his beings within his sword, he might go as far as to opt out of the fight out of sheer respect.
But he wanted him. More than ever now.
The second goliath disappeared in a cloud of smoke, letting his blade drop and sink several feet into the ground due to its massive weight. The Lord eyed his blade before casually walking over to it, wrapping his fingers around the handle like a lovers caress. But he did not pull it up. Instead, he rose his other hand to unclip the Metashi vest around his upper chest and removed the armor, tossing it away to expose his naked upper body, revealing all the patches of ripped flesh from their fight where trickles of blood then released from the wounds. It was as if the vest was keeping his wounds in tact. But he wasn't going to need it anymore.
His hand then tightened around the handle, but instead of just pulling it up, he unlocked the seal and drew forth the crimson double edged long sword from within the God-Eater. For a moment the vortex of the God-Eaters mouth erupted hungrily, but was quickly soothed by a glare from the God-Killer. Turning his back to the giant sheath he sauntered away a few feet before letting his arms go limp by his side while his neck craned back, his ebony and crimson gaze peering up at the distorted sky, his energy still running rampant through the city.
"I am going to remove our power entirely. Neither shall have an advantage over the other. Until, that is...one of us is dead. And only then." he whispered to himself, though loud enough for the Baron to pick up.
His gaze then shifted over, staring down the beast whom had called forth a massive blade. Though Tetsue held no fear for the weapon. He knew what his own was capable of. There was a reason he shared the name with the sword.
"Do you understand now? Do you see why I am called the God-Killer? What is a God when I have taken its power away, or absorbed it's strength to my own? I am the slayer of God's because I can walk amongst them at will." he muttered, distaste filling his mouth at the thought of even being on par with a God.
"You are no different." he whispered, his gaze falling onto the beast before the Lord took off towards it. His sword, drawn behind him as he gathered speed until he was within range and slashed out diagonally from his right side to his upper left, aiming to sear through the creatures flesh.
Lol. That's fine. I was in the middle of my post and my room mate restarted the router so I lost my post. I have to start rewriting it again...sadly. I was almost done ;-;
