Chapter 1 - Vagueness of a mere phantom

Here i stood completely motionless , my brain in absolute chaos , who was this man that stood in the reflection , was it even a man ,"no,its a humanoid beast " ,i mumbled .It had a tail ,black armour , no eyes with sharp fingers ,but then why did it copy my movement when i raised my hand."wait,its a reflection.... of me". I fell on my knees i felt like vomiting but i felt i had nothing in my belly.Did i even have one.

i groaned in shock on my knees holding my stomach.

"what are you doing you beast" i heard a voice behind me .BOOM i felt a heavy blow on the back of my head . Excruciating pain through my body.

''i will not allow such incompetencies , i shall dispose you for ..." 

why...why did you hit me i yelled in fury as i tried to deliver a blow to this tall version of myself.SILENCE. I just stood there looking at the beast as it smiled at me mockingly. "You dare hit your commanding officer, you are quit willed aren't you?" .Officer i asked myself,was i part of some army. Judging from that blow this thing could kill me ,was i going to die ,again.I didn't want to be a beast anymore so i let him have it.'Aren't you also a beast but a bit taller, why are you judging your own kind are dim witted,i demand to see your hire ups". the commanding officer bust out in laughter ,like a mad man he continued mocking me calling me a mere phantom."If you want to see my hire ups ,you should go to the Mystic Lord ,Feldway,our supreme leader'', he mockingly said,i mean what annoyed me is that he laughed as if it was some kind of joke.But what stood out was the name Feldway , i read this name in a light novel, and if this is going the direction that i thought then i was genuinely fucked.

"am i....." .A light traveled in my direction then boom instant pain.My head ,the pain, make it stop. The armor i had was like my body when my headgear shattered from light the pain was unbearable.A kick to my stomach had me rolling in pain then the silent wave of a sword ,and my tail was gone . I screamed my voice cracked ,shaking i begged for mercy. 'where was all that confidence,i will kill you , the mere fact a phantom like attacked me is a threat to my position ,how can you be this willed to live ,why do you care if you live or die,why...why...why, tell me why why wont answer the question ,i command you to answer me ....'' he yelled.I was in pain my pride would not let me answer his deranged questions . '' What are you doing commanding officer',a voice bellowed ,cold it was ,robotic it felt. "Forgive me lieutenant officer but this soldier attacked me ..... i have to kill it,sir." 

Lieutenant,i asked myself , as he was about to walk away , i shout "Please sir i do not wish do die" i said. "You would dare talk without being told , a unique one you are,your energy level is at the level of a commanding officer,but why should i save you, you are a mere soldier" the lieutenant said. I begged, ' please sir don't leave me here or i will die you say that i have unnatural energy for my rank perhaps i may be useful in strategic war fare " at that point that was all i could come up with."i will dispose this insect for daring to speak to you lieutenant sir."

'no,this one comes with me,can you stand' at that moment i felt ecstasy i was going to live but for how long .Truly the strong do prey on the weak
