[Vacation Arc - #6]
...----------------...
The fight had lasted twenty minutes, but neither side was willing to give up. Although the Elemental Squad was always cornered from being out of balance with their opponent, they were determined not to give up.
"Friends, I'm going there" Dae-Vin said through a communication device after he managed to pull out the arrow that had previously been stuck in his armor.
"Don't!" reply his three colleagues compactly.
"Why? Am I just watching? Can I let you have trouble?"
"Anyways, you don't come here! You are not well." said Zaaryan as he briefly looked at Dae-Vin who was in the distance.
"I've been able to stand up and the energy of my armor is also still a lot" Dae-Vin insisted. However, his words were not repaid by one of his friends because something happened.
"HEY! FOCUS ON THE FIGHT! NO EXCLAMATION IF YOU ARE TALKING TO YOURSELF!" shouted the seven illusions of Darkillusion simultaneously. If so, the sound is very loud and makes the ears become sore.
Not long after, the once bright sky is now dark because it is covered in thick gray clouds. Not only that, rumbling sounds rang out from the sky.
"What's that..?" said Araya lirih, he was surprised to see the sight. It was the darkest cloud he had ever seen in his entire life.
"It's dark. My hunch is not good." replied Hanny equally flabbergasted.
JEEZ!
The sound of lightning striking it sounded so fierce and deafening. The lightning struck right on the island, even the ground until it shook and an explosion appeared. The unexpected explosion managed to make the three of them bounce back.
"Well!"
"Ugh.."
"Friends, are you all right? What's going on?" dae-vin panicked. He immediately stood up and teleported to where his comrades were.
"Dae-Vin, why are you here? It's dangerous here." said Zaaryan while holding his left shoulder which was painful due to the hurl earlier.
"I can't let this happen to you" he said, helping his colleagues to get back on their feet.
"Haha! The kids don't know themselves! You guys are still too young to be able to control the power of the element. So, you better just give that risky power to an adult like me." that sentence sounded a few seconds after the lightning strike.
They only realized that the scene had succeeded in creating a giant portal that connects the human world with other worlds.
The one who spoke earlier was someone in a pitch-black armor. His body was tall, probably about ten meters. It was very unnatural for a human, even for Darkness Swordmen.
"Could he.. Darkzero?" said Zaaryan suddenly after his gaze caught the giant figure earlier.
"Darkzero's? Who is darkzero?" turning his gaze over, Araya asked Zaaryan.
"Darkzero was the leader of the Darkness Swordman. He was also the strongest level one Darkness Swordman." Dae-Vin replied while directing his gaze in the same direction.
"He's the one who beat your father" Hanny said without a second thought.
"Dan-shh!" Dae-Vin and Zaaryan immediately code because Hanny has slipped. It was not yet time for the Araya to know about it, so they still had to keep the secret.
"My dad? My father is also an element controller?" araya asked after a glance he heard what Hanny said. From the look on his face, he really only found out about it.
"It's not so, Araya. What Hanny said was-" Zaaryan's words were cut off after Araya suddenly looked forward with a hateful look. Well, even though his face was covered in armor. But, his friends could feel a negative aura coming out from within Araya.
"Calm Araya, next time we'll explain." Dae-Vin tries to calm her down. He holds both Araya's shoulders to keep watch and prevent Araya from escaping to attack Darkzero without consent.
"Mr Darkzero, salute." bowing his body, Darkillusion saluted Darkzero who had just come there. The four of them stood up just like before.
Darkillusion immediately raised his head to stare at the leader. "Sorry sir, fighting them is really draining. I need to ride one more to be able to defeat them easily."
"Ooh, so. Substantial. No. gabe. Handy. They are just kids with short thoughts. You should be able to beat him in five minutes." folding his arms in front of his chest, Darkzero said in a dislike tone.
Darkillusion immediately lowered her body back, "m-sorry Master. L am.. I will beat them right now" he said in a trembling voice. Darkillusion is still below Darkzero. Darkness Swordman whose level is below should have more respect for the higher level Darkness Swordman.
"As far as you are. I don't want to waste my time on going here." Darkzero said as he turned around. After that, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After the leader left from there, Darkillusion looked at the four Elemental members with a haughty look. Both hands clenched to channel emotions that will soon explode.
"Look, I'm really going to beat you guys" he said softly as his body let out a negative aura.
The four elemental members immediately put up the horses. Prepare for an unexpected attack.
"I think his strength increased drastically after being provoked by Darkzero." whispered Hanny as she stared at Darkillusion who gave off a lot of dark aura.
"We need to be more careful." replied Zaaryan, slowly but surely his armor changed to the third stage.
"Eh, apparently you guys have also got the third stage huh?" araya asked after noticing the change of armor on Zaaryan and Hanny.
"Yes, we just got it." Hanny replied. After that, the four of them refocused their eyes forward.
Up ahead, Darkillusion stood there without doing any shuffling to attack.
Wush! Wush! Wush!
The sound of the waves sounded strong, the area was indeed not far from the ocean. The sky was still dark, the wind was blowing fiercely along with the light of lightning that was visible behind the clouds.
DUAARRR!
Darkillusion suddenly blew itself up. The explosion managed to make the sand there scattered and limit visibility. They can't see exactly what's going on.
"Friends, don't split up." said Zaaryan as the sand splashed into the air.
But there was no reply, after the sand no longer blocked the visibility, he only realized that on the island there was only one. His friends disappeared somewhere.
"Friends, where are you? Guys!" he shouted while looking at the quiet surroundings as if there had never been anything.
"Taro, can you track where they are?" asked Zaaryan on his armor system.
"Well." reply briefly, then immediately do what Zaaryan asks.
"After I tracked down, there was no sign of them here" Taro said after a few seconds tracking down their comrades.
"What's? Is that true? You mean they disappeared?"
"Yes more or less like that. There is absolutely no signal on this island."
"Are they safe now? They're still alive, aren't they?" ask Zaaryan again. His feelings are mixed at this moment. But the dominant one is a bad feeling.
"I don't know for sure. Even the signal is unknown. So I don't know if they're alive or not."
