——HAH———HAH———HAH———
I woke up panting as my brain tried to stop all the noises. My body , drenched in sweat. My breathing , haggard. The Nightmares…
[I'm Sorry.] Raiden Mei's voice echoed through my mind, sounding guilty.
"Don't be it's not something you can control" I said trying to uplift the mood.
[...] Raiden Ei stayed silent , not saying anything
[If you draw my-] Raiden Bosenmori Mei said , her voice held some form of emotion
"No. I won't erase it" I said with certainty , while it is stressful and painful I believe one day they'll stop coming. I just need to-
[We can hear your thoughts, you know.] Raiden Ei said , her voice soft
"..." FU- Alright deep breaths. I said to myself at the time , now then how did we get here? Is what you might ask? It's a long story. It started with a light—An explosion.
No—not an explosion. A whiteout. The entire world turned white for a full minute , and then… Nothing. At least, that's what we thought. The change was gradual. The first humans shifted.
Bodies rewriting themselves. Abilities surfacing , fiction becoming real. Remnants. That's what they call us those imbued with powers pulled from stories— games, anime, novels, shows—anything humanity had imagined.
Fantasy stopped being fantasy. I guess I was lucky. Lucky to survive… [And now you're stuck with us now] Raiden Bosenmori Mei said with a flat tone "Ugh. I wanna take a bath…"
[There's no bodies of water nearby] Raiden Mei said , her voice sounding rather apologetic
"Man.." I said in a rather self-deprecating tone , I really wanted to take a bath its been a while since I had one
—SCREECH—
A loud scream echoes
[An Enemy?] Raiden Mei's voice turned sharp ,
"Vestige." I said with certainty my voice turning emotionless.
[I see a human. Seems like they're losing.] Raiden Ei said , her voice also stern
And with that I walked.
—Vireth's POV—
"Ugh." Vireth grumbled as he was forced to roll side ways
"What should I do…" He thought to himself
He wasn't built for this. He wasn't an attacker. He needed coordination. Strategy. A team. But no one trusted him. They all thought he was helping the enemy.
As he look at the Vestige in front of him,
It was like a monster , specifically a Xenomorph from the movie Alien in 1979 , looking all skeletal and biomechanical colored in muted shades of black The Xenomorph Vestige shrieked once more
Its tail lashing forward like a spear. Vireth barely raised his rod— CRACK. A sound like glass cracking could be heard. The invisible barrier absorbed the strike completely… and then dissolved. He slid back across the pavement.
The Vestige lunged. Too fast. He rolled — claws carving through asphalt where he had been. His breathing getting heavier.
"I can't do anything alone." He muttered in a self-deprecating way.
His spear thrust glanced off its exoskeleton. Sparks. No penetration. The creature turned its head. Then— It stopped chasing him. Instead, it looked past him. Toward the settlement.
"No—" He knew. If it reached there… Casualties would appear and they?
"They'd blame me again…" His body wavered. He was tired—Suddenly the world turned mute. The vestige stopped, as I also held my breath. The world went silent. Not quiet. Muted.
"Huh?" was all I could mutter. As if sound itself had been judged unnecessary. The Vestige froze mid-step. The wind stopped. Dust hung in the air like suspended memory.
—Acheron's POV—
[That's-?] Raiden Ei's voice—sharp.
"A Xenomorph. Something like an alien from an old movie" I said with certainty , it was a rather famous movie from the 90's after all
[Hoh-?] Raiden Mei looked curious
[…] Raiden Bosenmori Mei did not speak , yet "I" felt it
"Well then…" I said to myself looking at the Vestige , my hands held brushed against the hilt.
[When you make a choice, make one that you won't regret] Acheron's voice echoed as I prepared to strike
My hesitation gone as I drew upon "Naught" , as it left the scabbard Color died. Not faded. Died. The sky became ash. The ground became black and white. The Vestige became an outline.
Conditions acquired. A low hum vibrated through existence itself.
—Hummmmmmmmm—
A silent hum could be heard. As my voice seemed to resonate as one as I said.
"It to Shall Fall"
—SHINGGGGG—

The blade left the sheath. There was no visible slash. No arc of lightning. No explosion. The Vestige simply—Stopped. A red fracture traced across reality behind it. Then across the monster.
Then through the street. Through the sky. Through meaning. For a single suspended instant—The world remembered what it meant to end. Then—Everything resumed.
Color returned—Sound returned—The wind exhaled. The Vestige?—Gone. Not destroyed. Not disintegrated. As if it never had a meaning "I wanna take a bath…" I said annoyed. As "Naught" was sheathed once more
—Vireth's POV—
The monster was there. Then it wasn't. No sound. No impact. No debris. His spear fell from his hand. —Clunk— "…What?"
All that's left was a scar on the sky—a slash that began to dissipate. It was a mark , a mark of a rather famous Vestige known by society.
"Raiden…" Aurelion muttered as he catched his breath. He laid flat in the grass , his body sweating and definitely smelling bad…
"I need a bath…" He muttered as he closed his eyes and fell into a deep slumber.
—
"Well this just got interesting~" With long black hair and wearing what seemed to be the robe of a priestess her blue eyes seemed to shimmer golden. A Certain Priestess at Max level perhaps?
—
"Finally…" Mira could be seen crouching near a ruined building , her body hidden by a long cloak , her purple eyes seemed to recalibrate itself as she stared in front of her.
"I've said this countless times and I'll say it again—This is a bad idea…" Sorya Rith grumbled , his orange hair was no longer lustrous , how could it even still be? They—No. Mira had been hunting this Vestige for a long time now…
Perhaps fate had dictated for this to happen , nobody truly knew what to expect at this moment. He didn't say much , yet even that silence was perhaps comforting for her , that there's someone here right now.
There it was , the vestige that slaughtered it all , the reason for her journey of revenge. The one who destroyed her family , with white skin , its entire body riddled with cracks with white or black everywhere.
"Han Ga-In." She said once more , her hands forming a claw creating what seemed to be a chain. Sorya looked at her , his eyes glowing brighter as the sun began to rise. It was currently 11.40am.
They discarded all their gears to prevent tracking , it was only the 2 of them at this moment , and with it Mira made her first move. Her body trembled. Was it because of fear? Or excitement?

The vestige Han Ga-In made a distorted noise , incomprehensible to the human mind , its skin pure white with cracks , some white some black in color. As the chain locks on to it , Mira flung herself over her voice loud as she said.
"BINDING" she said as the chains light up sealing Han Ga-In's movement , she was copying the power of the Herrscher of Binding from the game Honkai : Impact 3rd to seal all forms of energy.
"⍲☈⅁ℍ⌰⏎⍲⟄⌾⍓⎎⍲⍧⏎<⟟⍲🝍" as Han Ga-In's scream echoed the entire place , yet the power of binding is truly powerful even if it's merely an incomplete copy. It is still the power of a Herrscher. A God
"HMMPHHHH" Sorya grunted as he threw a gigantic ball of sun reaching 1 meter in diameter , to burn this vestige down.

A powerful scream could be heard , one that could make an ordinary human go crazy , yet Mira and Sorya weren't ordinary human beings , one was the lion sin of pride Escanor. The other a powerful automaton that had obvious resistance to such mental attacks.
But of course , like they say , such a powerful boss monster won't go down in a single attack. If it could be destroyed just like that , it wouldn't be classified as a cataclysm class vestige.
CRRCK—
The chain begins to rattle , threatening to snap , yet Mira stays focused , her eyes resolute , her eyes never leaving its figure. Sorya was standing there , his body bulging in size , he said in a small voice "Of course it won't be this easy…"
Black tendrils appeared everywhere threatening to stab Mira and Sorya , yet the tendrils slowed down as the heat Sorya emitted brightened. Melting the ground near them , Mira was of course prepared , she had copied Escanor's resistance to heat.
"I'll FUCKING KILL YOU" She screamed loudly , the hatred thick , ready to perhaps kill everything in her paths . She swiped her hands. More chains appeared as it binds the vestige even more.

its powers sealed , trying to break free. Yet Mira was unyielding , she spammed multiple powers that binds or seals one's power , she could see her energy draining rapidly. [60%] remaining.
But it was enough. Enough for her to absolutely fuck this damn Vestige that ruined her entire life. Her voice filled with resentment and anger that had been brewing for who knows how long.
"DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" She screamed even louder , perhaps since her body is that of an automaton it doesn't hurt her throat , however one must remember something simple.
Even if the body is that of an automaton , the one controlling it is a human and humans always make mistakes, especially one blinded by rage.
" 𐋅፱𐌌ል𐌍ጎ" The Vestige Han Ga-In roared once more , with it countless tendrils made of decaying flesh combined with darkness tries to strike her once more.
Yet Mira didn't panic as she dodged the attacks with precision and no wasted movement , borrowing the many powers of countless fictional characters. She gripped her hands as the chains surrounding the Vestige tightened.
Her other hand was trying to summon something , something powerful , something that could absolutely destroy this Vestige in front of her , yeah… That's right. Something powerful.
HUMMMMMMMMMMMMM
A low frequency , wobbling , mechanical like sound could be heard as a massive light blue sphere was formed in one of her hands , it was reminiscent of Genki Dama better known as Spirit Bomb , from the japanese tv series , Dragon ball.
One could not know which version she was trying to simulate. But it was surely powerful for—[WARNING FORCED SHUT DOWN IN 3 SECONDS COUNTING DOWN]
Her UI was warning her , the fact that it was the highest level of energy drain means it's going to be able to absolutely kill and erase this vestige from existence.
"MIR—" Sorya's voice suddenly screamed before it was cut off before he could finish his words and—
—!!!
Huh-? Why did I-? Why is Sorya screaming at me like that? Wait, why can't I hear his screams? I need to move—I can't move-? Why?
They say time slows down as one approaches death. In a sense that is perhaps also true for an automaton.
