Grey waved back at the stranger and rushed on his way. He had important business to attend to.

Coming from [x]
As Lilith went to touch Gunko, she grabbed her hand and pushed it away as unbeknownst to Alucard, she was not out cold. But was in bad shape...
"That won't be necessary..." the almost incapacitated Gunko replied, using the same intended technique on herself, as a master of her yang energy.
(Yoton: Taiyōnomegumi) - Yang Release: Touch of the Sun
Type: Supplementary
Rank: S-Rank
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 60 per use
Damage points: N/A
Description: Through the infusion of Yang natured chakra into others, users can heal others to their original best physical form. It can be used to regrow missing body parts, heal wounds, purge poisons, etc. The target needs to be alive and the bigger the injury, the longer it takes to heal. The limits of the heal, however, are almost none as it can heal 120 damage per turn and can even heal the chakra system or other injuries that are otherwise not possible to be healed. The technique requires time and physical contact and as such isn't very suited to use in a battle when compared to regular Iryo Ninjutsu.
Note: Yang Release Specialists and Yin-Yang users are able to use on themselves.

"Still alive?.." Gunko questioned as she got up in a manner that was not so well... "You couldn't kill me..." Gunko replied matter-of-factually. "But you did confirm what I wanted to know." she used a little of a more serious tone than before when they first met.
She extracted a chakra rod out of her hand and threw it at Lilith's feet, expecting her to take it. "That has my chakra in it. If I am needed, expert your chakra into it and I will feel it... Wherever you are." she explained as she lifted her left sleeve, exposing numerous chakra rod-esque piercings in a straight line all the way up her arm to her shoulder.
She then looked at Alucard and nodded her head. There were no more games to be played here. "I'll be seeing you... Lord Dracula." as she whipped her cloak behind her as she turned to journey off to her next assignment... Her plans were coming to fruition.
Mission End.

With Gunko back on feet, she tossed a black rod at Liliths feet in a rather strange and unsettling matter stating she would feel her. Lilith looked at it for a second and then replied with a careful voice,
Uhm.. i need an adult
With Gunko now being super-healed it could be that she just got a high from the excess Yang energies. She (Gunko) seemed to have taken her defeat hard but it also seemed like it was perhaps a catalyst for her starting to amp up her skills. Alucard was still in the background looking at the two of them with sharp eyes.
There’s no one here by that name, title or otherwise. A word of advice before you gear up.
He inhaled sharply before going on.
Your duty as of now is to get stronger, far in north of here lies Dainashi. If you so seek it, your destiny awaits.
With that said, it was time he was moving on as well and seek out his original purpose of visiting these ruins.
Lilith wasnt convinced that her fathers remarks had kindled a flame within Gunko, so she did what she could to approach her in the opposite way. She placed her hand on Gunko’s shoulder.
Well fought sister, i hope to see you soon again. Oh if you’re heading up the mountains, be sure to pack some good snacks and keep your head up. Maybe you’ll meet the Vampire Squids and the..
She realized half-sentence she was rambling, but at the same time she applied a sentimental smile and hopes that their first encounter hadnt rooted bad seeds. Expecting Gunko to carry on, Lilith returned to Alucards side and waved, awkwardly but genuinely.

She took Alucard's words of wisdom to heart, even if Lilith thought otherwise. Though he denied the name of Dracula, his tone of response in their earlier skirmish suggested otherwise. And that was okay. For now... This would also be why she took his words to heart, and what was understood didn't need to be explained. Shall her lord lay dormant until called upon in the time of need.
Lilith's words were also welcome. As Gunko started to storm off, Lilith placed her hand on Gunko's shoulder and spoke words of encouragement to Gunko. Going on a rant about snacks and vampire squids. Gross. Gunko smiled brightly, visible behind her mask. She grasped Lilith's hand with her own before the two parted ways and nodded towards her. No bad seeds planted. If anything, the opposite. Gunko, although knighted by Yasha herself, was not at the level necessary to accomplish her life's mission. Alucard had helped her see this. And thus, her journey to godhood would continue...
In jest, as they parted, Gunko replied to Lilith "I'll make sure to look out for the squids." she smiled before finally turning her back on them and journeying on to her next adventure...

He'd been watching from a distance with his chakra suppressed. The two seemed to have clashed on quite the scale, yet they remained on good terms following. It would seem they both had quite the talent able to heal such injuries too. Akira (C2) could clearly sense the lady with the peculiar fellow had an almost identical chakra signature. A creation it would seem. So they had mastered yin and yang to that extent. And those eyes, they seemed to have pushed them beyond the Byakugan yet something was off.
As he looked on from his position with the shadows, something truly caught his eyes. The feint glow of the rinnegan within the eyes of the girl. Could it be? His suspicions confirmed when she threw one of the chakra rods that were used through the outer path for... nefarious means.
Listening to their conversation, Akira could tell the girl was not one to want to lead, yet one that preferred to serve. They seemed to seek a master. What could their goals truly be?
Keeping his chakra suppressed, he followed her in the shadows until they were out of sight of the one she called "Dracula". When they were, he stepped out of the shadows emerging from behind some ruins. His mask covered his face, yet his left eye reflected the peculiar purple of the Rinnegan.
"It would seem as though you haven't fully mastered the power within those eyes... Maybe I can be of some.... assistance?" He spoke calmly waiting to see how they would react to his presence.

Gunko jolted her head in the man's direction and stared him down to a T. "Hmph. What more could you possibly teach me? I am Yasha's Knight. Who are you?" Gunko asked. It is not everyday a strange masked man randomly appeared out of nowhere and offered help to a fellow shinobi. These lands were bloody... Even Gunko and her assumed King clashed in a test of strength. Anything having to do with help she would assume a price tag or blood came with it. "I've seen other dimensions... Molded planets. Do you also plan to test my mettle?" she asked sharply. It simply seemed like everyone wanted to gauge her strength. Lord Alucard already folded her up. What's one more go-round? She was nigh immortal. She was tired of being tested and tossed around. She had yet to be respected as a Knight of God in this... New world. This entire mission was a test of her patience and she about ran out of it by now...
"Well? Explain yourself." she demanded and patiently awaited an answer. She was obviously in an angered state. Hopefully the man would understand this. As abrasive as she usually could be, it was not often that she wore her emotions on the outside, often stoic. Not today.

They sure were a fiery one outside of battle, yet even now she didn't react to seeing his rinnegan. This meant that it wasn't the first they had seen outside of his at least. They spoke of being a knight of someone called Yasha? Somewhere called Yasha? Curious. The most curious part was the fact they had seen other dimensions. They hadn't mentioned being to one though. Could their ocular powers be similar to his own?
"My apologies if you have the impression I'm here to do battle with you. That is not my intention." He spoke politely enough. "Alas you've just had quite the scuffle and through what I saw and can sense, you're chakra values are lower than you'd hoped. Would that be a fair assumption?" He questioned with a calm tone to his voice.
"So, a confrontation would not only be unfair in that regards, you'd just used the pinnacle of the yang state which also leaves its own strain. All in all, it wouldn't be in your favor. Alas, that is not my intention either way. We share an ocular prowess that very few hold and I believe you're not using it to its full potention oh Knight of Yasha."

As soon as the man apologized and explained, Gunko calmed down. She had her fights ahead of her but anymore outside of her ultimate goal would be pointless and a waste. He explained how her use of Yang State left her in a less than manageable position. "Yeah... Not everyday do I fight entities as great as that... Last time it was a vile Otsotsuki... It went about the same..." she replied pessimistically as she brushed off her left shoulder of dust and debris.
She was thrilled to see someone who had acknowledged her as a Knight of Yasha, this further peaked her interest. "You know of Yasha, the Slumbering Goddess?" she asked. Also following up... "We may share abilities but much like Lord Dracula insisted, we are no kin. Most people here only steal their way to power. I was born with this..." she said, almost sadly. She was the only known "human"
naturally born with a Rinnegan. Something extraordinary. The difference between this man and Alucard was that Alucard was a supposed prophet among her people, however accurate that was... At this time, the man in front of her, was just that. A man. "I was born with all of this." she started to manipulate the bones in her hands to spike out and protrude through her skin and she surveyed them, putting on quite the sad show for the Masked Man. "And they tried to banish me for it." She closed her hand on the spikey bones, piercing herself but crushing them to dust as the wounds healed instantaneously and the bleeding stopped instantaneously as well.
She looked up to where the moon would be if it was night time. Peculiar course of action. She knew exactly where it would be when it rose. "What is your name?.." she asked very curiously. She saw the glow of the eyes the man wielded however, she would save her questions for later. Alas, his eyes could be stolen just like Alucard's... And after all, curiosity killed the cat..

Alucard and Lilith's path was their own now - atleast for the time being. It would seem that Gunko had found someone who had the same Kekkei Genkai as her but also.. Another
..Could it be?
He mumbled to himself as he dug deeper into the woods at the outskirts of the ruins. They would leave this landmark far Alucard had found an apetite for ritualistic murder..

It seemed as though the one before him was not above reason as their demeanor seemed to relax. This was a good start. It was interesting to hear they had been naturally born with the eyes. The Uchiha tablet showed the only way to attain power of this level was through suffering and the combined power with the Senju. Something wasn't right with this.
Although he had no clue of this 'Yasha', it would work to his favor to acknowledge that at least. "Alas, I know Yasha only in name and whispers, nothing more." He didn't want to be caught out pretending to know more than he did. "As for the lord you speak of, is that his full power I just saw?" He was curious. These lands were volatile and any that interfered with his plans would have to go. "My name is Akira and yours?"
He didn't want to give too much away. "Tell me what you know of your eyes. It seems the true power of the outer path allude you."

Looking at his chakra network, there was no sign of oncoming attack or an attempt to plot one. The man was... Truly tranquil at this time. So, Gunko listened intently and fully relaxed herself, especially hearing that he may have heard of Yasha. Again, this pleased Gunko a great deal. "Yes, yes. She is the Queen of Las Noches but it is far, far away... I am not certain but it is either far north or far south from here... I hardly know where I am right now." Gunko admitted. "She is the one I serve. I am her knighted emissary but alas, I have traveled a great deal off of the beating path as it is taking me... Longer than desirable to get to where I need to be and do what needs to be done..." She paused for a moment to let the man continue.
"Ah. Lord Alucard... I am not sure if that is the extent of his power. But I reckon it must have been close. I have not been tested like so in quite some time." she played to the fact that that was possibly close to his full potential, as he also had a far heightened state like Gunko, surpassing that of normal human constraint which was rare in normal humans. But she could not lie as she didn't know his full potential. She could only guess that it was close to it.
He had no problem telling her his name, but she was not as comfortable nor confident. She still could not fully trust what was essentially still a stranger.
"Manmayer..." she replied. "Manmayer Kaguya..." Eh. It was close enough.
"My eyes... I know little of them. Queen Yasha taught me little about them, but not much... Most of what I know I learned through... Experience." she said reluctantly as memories of the bloody battles her and her step-sister engaged in against each other replayed in her head. "Outer path?" she asked. "I know not of any such thing." Although she knew things about her eyes and knew how to use them in some ways, she did not formally know the names of its abilities and the likes. She indeed had no idea what this man was talking about. But it was clear that she was not properly introduced or trained with them. If the man had surveyed her earlier battle, he would have seen the Gedo Mazo clear as day. So a novice she was not, but far from a master, she was. "It seems like everyone knows more about me, than I do..." she said this in a less pessimistic way but a more curious way. Was she that different? Was she a legend? Was she infamous? Realistically, she was still new to this world. No reputation could possibly precede her... What was so special? She felt less of herself and more of a mystery. Like a puzzle once completed confidently getting taken apart unwillingly. Although this didn't sadden her, it made her crave knowledge. She couldn't carry out Yasha's will if she had not yet reached her full potential like she thought she had already done. Lord Alucard knew her dead bone pulse techniques and is said to have evolved them past their normal limitations, but he was no Kaguya. He also had a Tenseigan, but he was no Otsotsuki... This man in front of her wielded the same eyes as her. Had he also pushed past the normal limitations that Gunko faced? She knew her family and their offspring very well... So she couldn't help but to ask... "Your eyes... Are you of Otsotsuki or Senju descent? How did you obtain them? You could not have been born with them." Gunko stated this almost matter of factly. As no one but herself had been born with a natural Rinnegan in a millennium. So she doubted those eyes were his...
Her heart started to pump faster as her synthetic memories of hatred of the families with doujutsu was resurfacing. However, she had to make the conscious effort to put hatred aside, for the greater goal... But not without asking one more reckless question...
"Are you... An Uchiha?.." At this point, even though she would restrain herself from attacking regardless of the answer, her chakra system was going haywire, her temperature? Fluctuating between hot and cold... Her face? Stone-cold... Her temperament and grace was solely in the hands of this Masked Man... If he played his cards right, he would find an ally in Manmayer. A loyal one. But if he plays the wrong cards, he would have to strip Manmayer of the little life she held onto... The choice was his.

This child seemed so driven, yet so lost. It clearly showed in their hesitation to say their name yet their loyalty to others... that was without question. This was almost perfect. If he could inspire her to see him in the same way, he could gain quite the powerful tool in his long term goals. It would seem the more he gave, the greater the trust that Manwayer would instill. He'd have to play the long game.
"I see, they seem like quite the inspiring figure. Though, as for the one you just fought, his energy seems chaotic. Alas, time will tell." He paused for a moment hearing of her tale. It seemed as though she had more questions that answers for her own life. That must be quite the challenge.
"Your eyes possess the power of the 6 paths. Each governs a unique aspect and with it great power. From your fight just now, I can clearly tell you've begun to unlock part of it's potential... yet..."
He stepped forwards placing his hand on her shoulder, "You have so much room to grow..." In that moment a chakra rod pieced through her shoulder from Akira's sleeve. With it he body would go haywire as Akira's will was imposed on her. At the same time he'd release his chakra suppression technique allowing her to see his true power. "This... is true power. You govern life and death... your will becomes there's.... you're born to govern their very wills... they body's the tools of your own goals...." He spoke intently looking her in the eyes. His rinnegan locked with hers. His right eye spiralled glowing red revealing the three tomoe sharingan in answer to her question.
After several moments he stepped backwards, withdrawing the chakra rod from her shoulder and his will. As he stepped back, all her wounds would instantly heal as Akira made use of his GST:
Grace of Ishtar (Passive): Medics gain an increased 30% healing to all their abilities. Their healing techniques have a 20% chance to critically heal, causing them to heal for 100% increased healing.
Composite Healing (Passive): A Medic's healing techniques gain Composite Healing. This causes all healing to simultaneously heal Spiritual and Physical damage.
Embrace of Nannar (Active): At the cost of a move and a slot in the timeframe the user is able to heal all allies within mid-range of their position for 30 Health Points and cure them of all negative debuffs, as long as they can be cured. Usable once every four turns.

Mission Start: Learn more about your divine abilities and get ready to usurp a throne (A-Rank)
Akira mentioned how Alucard seemed chaotic. "Yes. He hides another entity. One he seals away. That, is the embodiment of chaos... Alucard means no harm. He is sometimes as lost as I..." Manmayer said.
She listened closely as the man mentioned something about six paths. She blocked out the outside world. Not by choice, but by default. She was lost in this man's teachings and knowledge. Something she yearned for since departing from Yasha's castle. He mentioned how she was not a novice yet was far from unlocking her eyes full potential... Something she had no idea of. She thought she had reached the pinnacle of her abilities and had not felt the drop of her own blood or sweat since her eyes had awoken other than her fight with Alucard. She had dominated wherever she had roamed... This was... Thrilling news. She craved more power.
As Akira stepped forward, naturally she stepped back out of reflex but inevitably let the man touch her shoulder in which the same rod she used would come from his sleeve and pierce her. This immobilized her and put her in a trance-like state, going through hundreds of memories and revelations from both her and Akira. With Akira's memories of some questionable things he had done to get to where he is sprinkled on top of it. Her eyelids flickered violently as her dull eyes vibrated, displaying the chaotic tempo Akira had put her mind into. It was... Exuberating. As her mind flipped through revelations like pages in a long book, she found more meaning, purpose, and even started to understand the rinnegan's true nature and power through Akira's will... Above all else, it was now confirmed through Akira's will solely, that he was not there to hurt her. Or even use her as a pawn. He was genuinely there to help. And although he did expect an ally at the end of this... He did not seek control. He sought... A warrior.
Even though she couldn't reply while in this trance, she heard every word Akira said as it matched up with what her mind was going through. She heard "This... is true power. You govern life and death... your will becomes there's.... you're born to govern their very wills... they body's the tools of your own goals...."
As he stepped back and withdrew his chakra rod, her skeleton naturally flexed and grew, breaking the chakra rod into pieces. However, this was simply a natural defensive reflex she had no real control over as once he stepped back, she had no intentions of attacking. She had gained... A friend. She saw his Rinnegan swirl into a Sharingan, however, had no ill will towards the man...But, she was programmed to eliminate every last one of them... Yasha's ritual had been erased from her mind. And she now understood that she was being used. However, her hate for the Otsutsuki remained. Her being exiled was not a synthetic memory. She was abandoned. And she will exact her revenge...
She was already getting ahead of herself.
"I understand now." she said to Akira. "Teach me the way of the six paths. I will accept your hand in glory... And I will be indebted to your service." she said as she bowed gracefully. And Manmayer bowed to no one. Not even Yasha... It was now clear... That her plan would be to usurp Yasha's throne in Las Noches, and rule her kingdom.
After all was said and done, Akira had rejuvenated Manmayer entirely by mysterious means in which she had never seen. But it didn't matter. It helped. That's all she cared about. She stared intently at Akira, awaiting his plan for their next move. She was eager to test her newfound knowledge of her ocular prowess. And she was willing to move how he moved and follow where he lead.

No sign of resistance? This was curious to be sure. Maybe their thirst for knowledge and power blinded them to everything else. It was always too good to be true. Alas, none of this mattered. Akira was seeking instruments of his will and when he was done here, he'd have one with a unique set of powers. He just needed to be sure he could keep them in line. Maybe there was a way.
"You have the power of life and death at your disposal. Those around you can be the instruments of your will. The dead serve as vessels to your goals. To truly thrive, to unlock the full power locked within those eyes... you will need to do things... unnatural things... are you truly willing to do that? In the name of power?" He left it open for her before going on.
"If you truly seek to spread your power... to serve or protect... to forfill your heart's desires... you must bring one who is no more here... the spark of their life gone... to be no more... a true vessel for the power contained within you..."

Manmayer listened as the man spoke, soaking up as much knowledge as she could.
"Mm." she said. "This can be arranged." she said in response to him saying she would need to do unnatural things to get to where she needs to be with this... Training. It wouldn't be the first time she would have had to do something like this. This life was cruel... You either adapt or meet your maker...
Manmayer put together what the Masked Man was saying and without hesitation... "A body. You would like me to bring you a dead body..." she said. "Consider it done." Manmayer said, instantly. After going through hundreds of revelations and memories as well as possibilities in her head on top of the man's will, possibilities with him and what his business was with Manmayer played through her head. Not one made her think he was out to get her. She used logic and reason to simply rule out the fact that he was there to finesse her. And even if he was, the time to do that would not be now. It would be pointless and futile.
"If that is all, I will be taking my leave." she said as she bowed, eager and ready to go about her mission.

It would seem they were truly willing to do anything to gain power in the world. That kind of soul was quite the easy one to manipulate. He'd chosen well. He simply nodded waiting for them to leave. If he could control them, he would have a powerful asset for his future goals.

With no further words spoken, what was understood didn't need to be explained...
Without further ado, Manmayer made her way off onto her next adventure.
