Name: Sanctified Endurance (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: B-rank
Class: Defensive
Range: Self

Description: Vendetta's prayers and endurance has been sanctified by Kami himself allowing her to use the enlightenment He granted her to mesh her Defense Tiers with her Endurance Tiers in order to increase their power rather than relying on the tiers that people seemed to just copy. Sanctified Endurance relies on granting the defensive properties of Defense Tiers to Vendetta's Endurance Tiers granting her immunity to chakra based techniques without defense piercing that impact her body while it is active. She however is capable of taking it one step further to drastically increase her defensive capabilities by using her Strength Tiers to flex her muscles right at the point of impact causing her defense to transcend just her skin using all three tiers Strength, Defense & Endurance at once to completely nullify chakra based techniques even with piercing at the cost of expending fatigue equal to the rank of the chakra technique. When this isn't active however all of her Sanctified Endurance only affects her skin.

------------------------------------------

Vendetta was training first however she had been searching for the training area provided by the Shogunate only finding it after being pointed in the right direction it was a large spacious area and she had noticed others training there as well however it was a large enough area that unless someone was using very powerful techniques no one would really interfere with another's training. The chunin she had asked directions from however had told her of other training areas restricted to higher ranked shinobi due to the need for privacy and of course a special Blades only training ground which only a member of the Blades of the Shogunate could enter to train by themselves or with other Blades. She had decided to just go to one of the more hidden areas as she was working on a specific fighting style that she was sure would change things. Still she needed someone to help her out so she had wandered the main arena before seeing a fellow T. Jonin looking slightly down. She had asked him what was wrong and he mentioned that he needed to practice techniques but no one would spar with him and thus he was unable to improve due to not knowing how fast he should use his technique or the methods to use it on a moving opponent that could think on their own.

Vendetta had volunteered herself and together they went to the training grounds before she knelt down and prayed for a bit so that they could get started. It was three techniques all of different ranks one of them being a Taijutsu the other ninjutsu and the last nintaijutsu with defense piercing. He had asked her over and over whether it was okay and she had agreed stating that she was practicing her defenses to see whether they would work against certain techniques. Once that was cleared up they began to spar with Vendetta keeping him away with arrows until he eventually found an opening to strike her with the ninjutsu. She was ready for it and after it hit her she emerged unscathed causing him to wonder if it was effective with Vendetta saying that if not for her defenses that it would of worked and that they should continue. This would be repeated for the Taijutsu as well as the Nintaijutsu with Vendetta having tested her defenses enough to know that it was effective enough for battle. All she needed to improve on now was her response time to make the secondary use flexing her body upon being hit even more reflexive than it was now.

Name: Piercing Justice (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: C-rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Vendetta doesn't understand why others do not do this, as it is quite simple however she understand that most people tend to simply go with the flow rather than break strides. As a result Vendetta has created this fighting style using her own impressive defenses along with speed tiers in order to pierce through physical objects due to her own body being extremely durable. She typically uses this technique when dealing with opponents who do not have physical defense to pierce deep into their body to dispatch them as a result she uses it in her legs making use of what would typically be used for movement to devastating victims who think because she is an archer she can fight up close.

--------------------------------------

Vendetta was training once again in the Arena, since her last encounter with the Chunin who had helped her out she hadn't seen him again as he probably had taken a mission after managing to perfect his fighting set up. She hoped he didn't perish as she had begun speaking to him and was slowly winning him over towards believing in Kami. If he perished before he could be saved it would be quite unfortunate especially since he was so close already, she however did need to begin to train her holy arts but she realized that in her life she had neglected some important things in her life. These were her own natural movement speed, while she could fire off arrows fast enough to intercept moving targets Vendetta herself lacked speed to keep up with her peers. This wasn't a problem for her before but she wanted to make sure that she was able to not only protect herself but those who were apprenticed under her. She had never had apprentices before and she would not fail Judal or Jean it simply wouldn't happen to her again as she had failed her squad. As a result she would not over specialized in the case of her physical conditioning no, she would become skilled in every physical feat necessary to make her archery as deadly as possible. To this extent she had managed to combine her defense and speed into a unique movement style which took aspects from both of them. She was already incredibly durable now to utilize it along with her running causes her feet to pierce through the ground as if she was putting strength behind her movement when she actually wasn't.

Savannah, sat down opening the good book before starting from the beginning she wanted to read and digest the scriptures of Kami as that she could be closer to him and thus understand the new abilities that she had been granted upon becoming a Diablo. The book of Genesis and it read
"Verse 1 In the beginning the Principle Deities created all things. Verse 2 And each were unique all was without form, and Datara's void emanated from It's form; and due to that darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Cthuhlu wandered through the void, as Gaia flexed her essence, Susanoo lashed out at everything without reason while Shinigami waited endlessly. Verse 3 And Kami said, Let there be light: and there was light. Verse 4 And Gaia, Susanoo, Shinigami, Cthuhlu and Datara saw the light, that it was good: and Kami divided the light from the darkness which Datara spread forth. Verse 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Verse 6 And Susanoo on Kami's instruction said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. Verse 7 And Susanoo with Kami guiding his hands made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. Verse 8 And Kami called the firmament Sky. And the evening and the morning were the second day. Verse 9 And Susanoo said with Kami's supervision said, Let the waters under the natural world be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. Verse 10 And Kami called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and the Oni Angels saw that it was good. Verse 11 And Gaia said while Kami guided her voice, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. Verse 12 And Gaia with Kami's supervision brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after her whims, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after her kind: and the Oni Angels saw that it was good. Verse 13 And the evening and the morning were the third day. Verse 14 And Kami said, Let there be lights in the firmament of space to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years. Verse 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light within the universe: and it was so. Verse 16 And God moved two great lights to surround the planet which Gaia tended; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he shifted the stars also to have their own systems galaxies, quasars and everything else non-ordered in the universe. Verse 17 And Kami set them in the firmament of space to give light upon the earth and other planets, rather than incinerate those which moved into their path resulting in the endless creation and destruction. Verse 18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and the Oni Angels saw that it was good. Verse 19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day shaping time and space in order to set a chronology instead of the random chaos which Cthuhlu spread upon creating the dimensions. Verse 20 And Kami said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creatures that hath life, and creatures that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of the skies. Verse 21 And God gifted souls to the great sea creatures, and every living creature that moveth within, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every avian creature and winged fowl: and the Oni Angels saw that it was good. Verse 22 And Kami blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. Verse 23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. Verse 24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. Verse 25 And Kami gifted souls the beast of the earth to, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and the Oni Angels saw that it was good. Verse 26 And Kami said to his Oni Angels, Let us make Humans in our  image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish and aquatic creatures of the sea, and over the fowl and avian creatures of the air, and over the terrestrial creatures, and over all the earth, and over every Dobutsu, Chakra Beast and sentient thing that creepeth upon the earth. Verse 27 So Kami gifted man a soul in his own image, in the image of Kami shaped he him; male and female enlightened he them. Verse 28 And Kami blessed them, and Kami said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish and aquatic creatures of the sea, and over the fowl and avian creatures of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Verse 29 And Kami said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. Verse 30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. Verse 31 And Kami saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Savannah would stop reading reflecting on what she had learned basking in it and feeling her mortal form understand Kami and his purpose, using it to reach inwards and harness her ability to replicate based on her awe of his feats. She could only do so for a time, as it would eventually fade away after a delay, but first untested all was but an illusion. Next would come Solid, then Liquid, then Gaseous, then herself. She did not try to copy others as such was a perversion of life and a sin by the words of Kami. The first was Imperfect flawed and easy to see so, the next was Almost Perfect the flaws being diminished yet still present and finally after numerous tries she created a Perfect clone with the bare minimum of flaws but it was not truly the original as it was naught but a clone. Satisfied in her progress she would go to bed, sleep rest and awaken the next day refreshed to begin training again. She would do like before reading the next chapter of the good book seeking guidance from Kami in her feat, it read "Verse 1 Thus the Universe and the Dimensions were finished, and all the host of them. Verse 2 And on the seventh day Kami ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. Verse 3 And Kami blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which Kami created and made while the other Original Ones looked to him in awe. Verse 4 These are the generations of the universe and of the dimensions when they were created, in the day that the 6 Original Ones made all that Was, Is and Yet to Come. Verse 5 And every plant of the field before it was in the various garden worlds, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Susanoo had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not one to till the ground. Verse 6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. Verse 7 And the Shinigami formed Humans of the dust of the ground, and Cthuhlu breathed into his nostrils the breath of life that is sentience; and while Kami gave him a gift thus man became a living soul. Verse 8 And Gaia tended a garden world which She called Eden; and there She the Dobutsu whom She had formed with Kami's supervision. Verse 9 And out of the ground Gaia, at Kami's insistence, to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life Yggdrasil also in the midst of the garden, and one of which was the tree of knowledge of good and evil planted by Datara known as the Shinju. Verse 10 And a great ocean went out of Gaia bathing Eden to water the garden world; and from thence it was parted, and became into four parts. Verse 11 The name of the first is the Abyssal: that is it which compasseth the east of the whole land of Beginnings, where there lurks the chakra beasts;Verse 12 And the chakra beasts, are creations of Datara vital to maintaining the natural balance of It's corruptive life filling the world each being born, bathed and imbued with It's Sin. Verse 13 And the name of the second is Polar: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Frost. Verse 14 And the name of the third is Imperial: that is it which goeth toward the west of the Beginnings. And the fourth yet largest is Lost as it was bequeathed to Cthuhlu to become his playground filled with storms, tsunami's and creatures driven mad by His twisted games. Verse 15 And the LORD, Kami, took the man, and put him into the garden world of Eden created by Gaia to dress it and to keep it. Verse 16 And Shinigami on Kami's instruction commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: Verse 17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Verse 18 And the Gaia came to Kami and said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. Verse 19 And out of the ground Gaia formed every God Beast out of envy for Kami's gift to Humans and set them lurking within the world, and every fowl and avian creature of the air; and Kami brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. Verse 20 And Adam gave names to all land animals and terrestrial creatures, and to the fowl and avian creatures of the air, and to every type of Chakra Beasts and Dobutsu lurking within the world; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. Verse 21 And the LORD, Kami, caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his soul fragments, and restored the soul instead thereof; Verse 22 And the soul fragment, which the LORD, Kami, had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. Verse 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of the soul of Man. Verse 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Verse 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed."

Vendetta thought about these words as she closed the book to being her physical training stripping down to her bare flesh and working to increase her body in each feat that was a tier. Strength, Speed, Defense, Endurance each working in tandem she hardened her body with Strength to bolster her defenses pushing it all the way to match those Blows which were Crushing. Speed bound in the Diamond hardness that was her Skin to Pierce the earth as she strode force to met out Justice. Her great-bow pulled taut with the Strength only an Archer could produce sacrificing her ability to met it out for barbaric tasks not suited towards advancing her archery or through meaningless swings instead of refined Technique. She bore the weight of the missionary upon her shoulders testing her Endurance and earning the path to seek the Way of the Demigod. It was with that that she noticed Kabutowari as it slept it's chains able to stretch and shrink yet it's handles both equal in shape and curvature. She would fit it holding it together with her hand before pulling on the chain cycling her chakra via the weapon to bind the two ends to fashion a bow out of her weapon. After doing such and testing herself honing her archery to wrought out arrows backed by her strength yet flitted out at high speed she decided to bathe cleansing her body before putting on her night clothes and going to bed once more. She would wake the next day and open the good book once more refreshed from her activities the day before and ready once again to digest the words of Kami. She would open the good book before proceeding to read the next chapter which read "Verse 1 Now the Chakra Beasts were more enticing than any animal, creature of Dobutsu within the garden which the Gaia had made. And they said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? Verse 2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: Verse 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Shinigami hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. Verse 4 And the Chakra Beasts said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: Verse 5 For Shinigami doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as Deities, knowing good and evil. Verse 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat both becoming tainted the pathways that were Nen & Chakra being seeded within them with the potential to bear fruit. Verse 7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. Verse 8 And they heard the voice of the LORD, Kami, walking in the garden in the cool of the day alongside Shinigami: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the two Original Ones amongst the trees of the garden. Verse 9 And the LORD, Kami, called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? Verse 10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself. Verse 11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? Verse 12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat. Verse 13 And the Shinigami with Kami as a witness said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The Chakra Beasts beguiled me, and I did eat. Verse 14 And the Shinigami said unto the Chakra Beasts, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all creations of the Deities, and above every Dobutsu lurking within the world; upon Limbo shall thy sometimes dwell lacking physical form yet retaining one's shape, and chakra shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: Verse 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed the Chakra Beasts and her seed the Humans; the latter shall rise up and wipe them out utterly, but the former shalt prevail for a time bringing Humanity to the brink. Verse 16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. Verse 17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Verse 18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; Verse 19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, all the animals and creatures shalt no longer beckon onto thee but shall constantly vie against thy for the right to life, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. Verse 20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living. Verse 21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did Susanoo make coats of skins, and clothed them out of pity yet teaching them how to hunt so as to spill blood and the life of others in order to earn their place in the world. Verse 22 And the Cthuhlu said, Behold, the Humans have become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest they put forth their hands, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: Verse 23 Therefore Gaia despite Kami's disapproval banished them from the Beginnings of Eden, to till the ground in what would be their Imperial destination. Verse 24 As a result Shinigami drove out the man from the Beginnings; and Kami uplifted the sacred trees into heaven, Yggdrasil of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep them from being tainted by Datara's machinations."

This time Vendetta would shed tears cursing the actions of Datara and Its second creations the Chakra Beasts, in truth what had been proclaimed by the Shinigami had come to pass they were now thankfully extinct while their "offspring" the Nova while tainted by sin were also intermingled with Humans and thus were no longer subject to the enmity between the two races. Still they were subject to the scorn that they should be, as their ancestors had enticed Humanity with Sin and knowing no better Humanity had been tainted by it. Still ignorance is no excuse for Sin and thus they were punished much like the Chakra Beasts wanted in the first place. To that end she felt they deserved their fate and all Nova should be thankful to humans that they were allowed to partake of human flesh so as to continue to live only due to Humanities mercy. She would practice her medical knowledge honing it and learning how to transmit her the two through archery, imbuing her arrow heads with Chakra Scalpels and shaping the medical chakra of her Mystical Healing Palm through arrows. She would review all that is what she learned before heading to sleep, only to wake the next morning and resume her reading of the scriptures. She would open the good book proceeding to the next chapter which read "[I]Verse 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. Verse 2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of animals, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. Verse 3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Original Ones. Verse 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the all including Susanoo had respect unto Abel and to his offering: Verse 5 But unto Cain and to his offering all but he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. Verse 6 And the Kami, said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? Verse 7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. Verse 8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. Verse 9 And the LORD, Kami, said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper? Verse 10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground. Verse 11 And now art thou cursed from Gaia, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand; Verse 12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth. Verse 13 And Cain said unto the LORD, Kami, My punishment is greater than I can bear. Verse 14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me. Verse 15 And Datara, with Gaia as a Witness said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And Datara set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him it was the original mark and thus came to be known as the Origin Curse Mark. Verse 16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Frost, to the north of Eden filled with all manner of dangerous beasts and cursed with eternal frigid temperatures so that his kin, kin's kin and all those begotten from his seed might suffer endlessly in the cold until their exit from the world. Verse 17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch. Verse 18 And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech. Verse 19 And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah. Verse 20 And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as capable of the taming creatures. Verse 21 And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ due to learning from the Aqua Tribe of Dobutsu. Verse 22 And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah. Verse 23 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt. Verse 24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold and thus from whence forth his seed communed with animals bearing different marks of which were known as Animal Curse Marks. Verse 25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew. Verse 26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.

Vendetta would close the good book before reciting her oaths up to the eighth so that she could reaffirm her devotion to Kami after seeing that she born of Cain due to being native to the Polar Continent, the Land of Frost according to the good book. She would close it and pray the entire day, reaffirming her vows and cleansing her body of the sin which she had obtained during her trials in the Pits. Once she had done so she would bathe, and proceed to head to bed concluding her training so that she might wake up the next day and be refreshed.

To be Continued in Another Post because it's too Long:

Continuation of Bulk Training.
-----------------------------------------------

When Vendetta woke up she would resume her reading of the good book, the next chapter of the scriptures which read "Verse 1 This is the lineage of the generations of Adam. In the day that Shinigami created man, while Kami gifted him a Soul in the likeness of Kami made he for him; Verse 2 Male and female gifted with a soul he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam meaning the First of Humanity, in the day when they were created. Verse 3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:Verse 4 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: Verse 5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died to be judged by the Shinigami in the afterlife. Verse 6 And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos: Verse 7 And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters:Verse 8 And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years: and he died. Verse 9 And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan: Verse 10 And Enos lived after he begat Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 11 And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years: and he died. Verse 12 And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel: Verse 13 And Cainan lived after he begat Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 14 And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years: and he died. Verse 15 And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five years, and begat Jared: Verse 16 And Mahalaleel lived after he begat Jared eight hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 17 And all the days of Mahalaleel were eight hundred ninety and five years: and he died. Verse 18 And Jared lived an hundred sixty and two years, and he begat Enoch: Verse 19 And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 20 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died. Verse 21 And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah: Verse 22 And Enoch hunted with Susanoo after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: Verse 24 And Enoch hunted with Susanoo: and he was not departed; for Susanoo took him so that they might hunt for all eternity. Verse 25 And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech: Verse 26 And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 27 And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died. Verse 28 And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son: Verse 29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD, Kami, hath cursed. Verse 30 And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters: Verse 31 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died. Verse 32 And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth." Vendetta would close the book understanding why there was a need to list out the origins of man, as well as how long they lived, initially Humanity was very long lived not without age like the Chakra Beasts or prone to immediate reincarnation like the Dobutsu they simply lived long and then died for good. Listing each out one could trace back the ancient descendants of the clans which spread through the world, some were more obvious than others but most were only known to the clans in question which they applied to. Vendetta herself knew that the Ibwa were descended straight from Lamech from a son by the name of Jashin who embraced his ancestor Cain's sin of murder and turned it into a cult converting others to his doctrine and eventually growing in power till he was brave enough to steal power from one of the Shinigami's Avatars become a minor deity. This what something all Embodiments of Evil were capable of and what she feared that Carmen might eventually do as after doing so her evil would propagate through the world while she would be untouchable to both mortals due to her Divinity while those of the Divines due to the pact made after the War of the Gods.

She would reflect on what she learned before proceeding to learn how to harness her abilities of Angel Physiology. It was difficult and she was mainly unsuccessful leaving her dishearted when she went to sleep only to awaken the next day more determined than before. She would proceed to consult the scriptures for guidance as she knew that she needed a deeper understanding of Kami's word before she would embody his first creations the Oni Angels. As a result she would pray first to him before opening the good book and proceeding to read the next chapter which states "Verse 1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, Verse 2 That the creations of Datara, the Acolyte Demons saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose stowed the seeds in their flesh which would eventually give rise to what would known as Kekkei Genkai. Verse 3 And the LORD, Kami, said to the Shinigami, Avatars shall not always strive with humanity, for that he also is flesh: henceforth their days shall be no more than hundred and twenty years. Verse 4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. Verse 5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. Verse 6 And it repented the LORD that he had gifted souls to man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart and so he brought to to the Shinigami to discuss the fate of humanity as He was their creator. 7 And the Shinigami said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and the chakra beasts, and the Dobutsu creeping throughout the world; for it repenteth me that I can not harvest their souls. Verse 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of Kami just as Datara withdrew Its chakra beasts into limbo, and Gaia sheparded 6 tribes of Dobutsu to Eden now called the Beginnings, to save them from extinction. Verse 9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah admired Kami adhering to his principles. Verse 10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Verse 11Gaia also was corrupt before both Kami with Shinigami as a witness, and She was filled with violence due to the influence of Susanoo and Datara.Verse 12 And Kami looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for Datara had perverted creation, tainted flesh and corrupted its way throughout the garden world. Verse 13 And Kami said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, Shinigami will destroy them with the earth.Verse 14 Make thee an ark of elder wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. Verse 15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. Verse 16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it. Verse 17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die. Verse 18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee. Verse 19 And of every living thing of all flesh except the Land of Beginnings as Gaia has shrouded it to save it from annihilation, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.Verse 20 Of the fowl after their kind, and of land animals after their kind, of every creeping thing which lurked all over the world after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive. Verse 21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them. Verse 22 Thus did Noah; according to all that Kami commanded him, so did he." Unlike all times before she would immediately move to the next chapter as she hungered for the scripture and thus moved onward to the next chapter which read "Verse 1 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. Verse 2 Of every animal thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not God Beasts by two, the male and his female. Verse 3 Of fowls also of the sky by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth. Verse 4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth. Verse 5 And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him while Datara hid the chakra beasts from the Shinigami within Limbo. Verse 6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth. Verse 7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. Verse 8 Of animals, and of beasts that are not God Beasts, and of fowls and avian creatures, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, Verse 9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah. Verse 10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. Verse 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. Verse 12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. Verse 13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; Verse 14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the land animals after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every avian creature of every sort. Verse 15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life. Verse 16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in. Verse 17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth. Verse 18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. Verse 19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole sky, were covered. Verse 20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. Verse 21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of human, and of demi-god, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: Verse 22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. Verse 23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and beast, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the skies; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark as well as all of those safe within the Land of Beginnings due to Gaia. Verse 24And the sea prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days." With this knowledge Vendetta would try once again to harness her Oni Angel abilities this time she was successful and would enter a trance with knowledge flooding her mind regarding the Oni Angels composition while all the while singing praises to Kami constantly resulting Vendetta learning how to master her Holy Sage Mode and exiting it as her body shifted to incorporate it's new changes.

First would be her blood as it became pure white, as the Oni Angel's blood was destroying all blood that is not like it due to it's purity. Next came her eyes as she gained the eyesight of the divine allowing her to focus and detect sin at a much greater level than before as their souls would radiate their skin more allowing her to simply look at their eyes and detect them being able to see through concealment which might hide their sin from her sight. She would grow ethereal wings her blood spilling each time they burst out from her body before she would heal her wounds crying out in pain as she grew two on her back left and right, one on her left foot, one on her right foot, and one on her right temple knowing she had not yet grown strong enough to manifest the last one. Her wings would remain unseen by all but those who possessed the sight of the afterlife, acolytes and acolyte demons due to their taint. She would likewise gain a halo which shared the same properties in terms of being seen as her wings as both were of a transcendent nature bridging the distance between mortal and the divinity of the Oni Angels. Her body would change one more becoming more like the Oni Angels in terms of composition rather than bruise or hurt like a moral her skin chipped, flaked, broke off in chunks or shattered yet her blood was not spilled. This was simply due to her just like an Oni Angel unable to have their blood spilled by normal means excluding soul affecting, void chakra using, black blood incorporating, Natural Energy imbued with the exclusion of Nega energy, and finally Bronze/Silver/Gold Null Cloak using techniques. Vendetta would come out of the trance before plunging into a deep sleep due to the strain her body underwent only to awaken the next day and observe the changes to her body. She would sing to Kami praising him during her prayers for blessing her with such a gift and would finish to once again read the scriptures as her training had almost reached it's peak and she once again hungered for the scriptures that were contained within the good book. As such she would move to the next chapter which read "Verse 1 And Kami remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all Noah's family that was with him in the ark: and Susanoo at Kami's urging made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters receded into the mouth of Gaia; Verse 2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained; Verse 3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated. Verse 4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon what would be known as the Imperial mountains. Verse 5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen. Verse 6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made: Verse 7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth never to return to the ark. Verse 8 Also he sent forth a pheonix from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground; Verse 9 But the pheonix found no rest for the sole of her foot instead being forced to swim, and instead was attacked by the Raven as it felt something off with it, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: thus the Pheonix died revealing itself to actually be a vixen who had shapeshifted into a Pheonix so that she might leave the ark, and thus began the eternal enmity between the two stowing the seed for the conflict Raven's and Vixen's. Verse 10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark; Verse 11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth. Verse 12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more. Verse 13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry. Verse 14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the ground yet uncovered by the sea and the Eden forever deemed lost to Humanity. Verse 15 And Datara sent forth the chakra beasts from Limbo keeping them within Eden out of spite, while Kami spoke unto Noah, saying, Verse 16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee. Verse 17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, of avian creature, of terrestrial creature, and of land animal, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth. Verse 18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him: Verse 19 Every animal, every beast, every creeping thing, every fowl and every avian creature, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark. Verse 20 And Noah built an altar unto the LORD; and took of every animal beast, and of every fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. Verse 21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savory scent and brought the Shinigami to partake in the feast; and the Shinigami said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth due to Datara's taint; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. Verse 22 While Gaia remaineth content, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease." Vendetta would close the good book and begin her prayers anew entering a trance as she once again bore witness to the whispers of the Oni Angel's singing praises on to Kami and gifting her with the knowledge of their form.

Her body would be changed once more before this time she noticed that there were no outward changes but rather when she spoke her voice felt more powerful as if it were imbued with something. She thought back to the Oni Angels and knew that their voices were powerful as from their mouths spoke the word of Kami and considering Kami created things with mere words just His voice was innately powerful. The next thing that changed was her want, she no longer hungered or felt tired she truly became closer to what the Oni Angels were and she would sing her praises to Kami for blessing her with her Diablo Ability. She understood that like the Oni Angels she no longer was bothered by mortal wants, she no longer tired, hungered or thirsted as quickly, was not burdened by pain nor inflicted by poison, diseases or radiation likewise she could sustain sever injuries yet still cling to life. Ultimately however due to not truly being an Oni Angel she was still mortal and didn't have the resiliency that the Oni Angel's possessed merely some of it due to her Diablo Ability she would eventually need food, drink and/or rest just like she would eventually succumb to the effects of disease, poison and/or radiation it just took a while. She knew that as long as she was faithful to her vows and thus to Kami that she would retain her abilities at peak levels. With that she would pray once more before studying more missionary work learning Bishop Arts as well as the Monk and Exorcist Arts knowing that she was limited in terms of her current body from mastering the latter. She knew she would have to utilize her possession ability to fuse with a new host body losing the body she was born with but while becoming the dominant personality in the new body she likewise would incorporate their traits her soul melding with theirs and becoming one and thus not condemning a soul to either destruction, casting it out of it's true body or binding it in servitude in comparison to normal possession. But that was something she could do later, now that she was finished with her training it was time to truly step up and become a more prominent figure in the Shogunate Military. The first way of doing so was her to take the test to become a legate and thus it was back to the Pits to claim her rightfully earned title of Legate once she cleared all three sets. She knew it would be difficult but she was ready and had trained precisely for this moment knowing that she would be able to hold her own against those within the heavyweight class who likewise were seeking either fame, fortune or fellow advancement within the Shogunate ranks.
