… Terrible.
As my eyes looked, hundreds of human puppets scattered around the Knight. Destroyed and torn apart, stuck in a fiery spear of fire. My hands trembled, and my guts disappeared. H-How can I defeat a monster this strong? Doubt chained me.
Impossible.
“Ah, those dolls, so it seems.” said Khanza, leaning behind the rubble of the coliseum, avoiding the knight's sight.
“You have a plan, Khanza?” my many.
Khanza harrumphed amusedly, “Against Adrammalech in such conditions? No kidding. The monster has nine lives with regeneration that is not bald, if we do not defeat it in one attack, Adram will smebuh and even stronger,” he said.
“S-S-Serious?”
Suddenly in the sky appeared hundreds of stars that shot closer to Adrammalech. They are angels with white wings, who carry the mace of heaven that struck Malice with its power. Time and time again, like an unforgiving meteor shower. But after the dust disappeared, Malice rose up with a robot head stuck in her long sword. He also roared loudly, counteracting all the blue lasers that rained down on him.
… G-Crazy.
“But now ktia is being benefited. The angels are The Immortal, the Homunculus of Lady Luciel's creation, each doll has the power of a Pathfinder.If we can concentrate their power in one strike, we can finish Adram off,” says Khanza.
“H-H-Huh? How can we work together with—“ a big explosion is heard along with a fire spear shot towards us. Soon Khanza and I avoided him, but realized Adrammalech's evil eyes had found us.
Three pairs of diamond horns were sticking out on his head, large with streaks of flaming fire. His body was filled with fire crystals that were stringing themselves into armor full of menacing horns. Like an angry tiger, his eyes lurked on us. His fangs were sticking out.it impatiently pounced on us with dozens of fire swords behind his back. Staring at Malice was like facing the Death.
“Mystelteine, with it, you can hijack the minds of all those Homunculus into yours. Believe him, he will show you the way,” said Khanza who held his chest and released a powerful magic energy, which was,
“Ignition... Berserker!”
The black diamond pounced on Khanza's body, stringing itself into a armor full of horns and a dragon mask that covered his face. From his back appeared a gigantic magic circle that was emitting purple lightning and summoning six gigantic ice hands. A ray of purplishness crossed the entire Khanza magic circuit with an aura of darkness faintly slipping out from it.
Khanza held his head, he looked so tormented, “I... can only give you 10 minutes.. I believe you, Chrysant.” he said who then roared hard and darted towards Adrammalech.
Trust me, believe in a sword? What is that witch crazy? Where might a... eh? A faint ray of light shimmered from the black blade of Mystelteine. A great force pulled him from my hand and shot up into the sky.
W-Wait, don't suddenly go that dong! Oh, my God, it's so troublesome. Darting into the sky with my wings, I chased after the sword. But the fire spears I avoided slowed me down. Not wanting to run out of my magic energy by flying, I too rested on the fire spear and jumped from each other, chasing after the sword that approached the angels in the sky.
“Multiple Malice detected's. Initiating Extermination Protocol,” heard the echo sound of the Angels.
They also formed a giant magic circle that launched blue lasers that burned down the city of Pei Jin. But it was not worth the devastation caused by the Khanza and Adrammalech fights. As their swords and spears clashed, the mountain split apart and the super-adical snowstorm dissipated. Lava from the bowels of the earth was scattered in the sky, the ground was churning like a wave of sea water. Seeing it was like I was having a bad dream.
Suddenly Mystelteine stopped right in the middle of the magic circle of the Malikats. I jumped up and took the hilt, but darkness soon crept on my body like the claws of a fierce tiger. And at the same time, the shadow of a white-haired woman hugged me from behind and guided my hand.
“Error, Error. Unidentified being detected. Measuring where energy level! Cannot calculate, cannot calculate.” sound resounded from the circle.
There was an amused laugh beside my ear, “... You want to live and help those two boys, right? Then will you give your soul to me?” whispered the darkness in my ear.
Her sweet voice betrayed the cold sweat that poured down my goosebumps. In the midst of the chaos, my mind was calm and empty. But not wanting to be defeated by that feeling, I replied,
“I am your owner. You are the one who must follow my wishes. Mystel! Give me the win!” my yelling.
The darkness disappeared leaving a tremendous force in my body. The threads of light were visible in my eyes, they wrapped around the tip of Mystelteine and led me to dart towards the magic circle of the angels. There, like emngalir water, I easily stabbed an angel and spread an aura of darkness on him.
The angel grabbed her black hair,“E-E-error, s-s-system corrupted. I-Initiating—“ said before being silent for a moment while her hair turned white and her skin turned pale, “. Noctis Labyrinthus. Connecting to main server…
Welcome home, Black Company. The beginning infection program. All Hail Noctis,” he continued looking at me with his eyes now like a demon.
The aura of darkness spread throughout the network of magic lingakran, infecting all the angels of the homunculus ferociously. In just a matter of seconds, the Homunculus system bowed to me. Everyone is muttering the same thing, though,
“All Hail Noctis.”
“... A-What really happened? This sword is terrible,” I murmured in fear at the incredible potential of Mystelteine.
On the surface, Khanza threw Adrammalech to the ground and locked him in a glittering ice palace. He looked at me, a nod giving me the code to end our plan. I took my breath and raised my sword. Mysteltein ferociously absorbed all of the energy from the angels, no matter which one by one it ended up falling lifeless. That powerful energy pierced through the superadical storm and brought together two different heavens.
I closed my eyes imagining The Reaper's last battle dream. I clearly remember the horses that Brother prepared when facing the deadly attack of The Reaper. Following him perfectly, I opened my eyes and shouted,
“Raven Style Finale: World Crusher!”
Just shake my sword and release a powerful energy that shatters everything it touches into dust. White explosions devour everything, forests, buildings, mountains and skies, no one can escape from them. So great was the vibration that even dimensions cracked and shattered like glass, opening gaping wounds that sucked everything around it.
“Hacking The Root Completed. With great power comes great cost. Now time to pay, Chrysant.”
Pain hit my head along with the buzzing and noise that invaded my ears mercilessly. I could not bear to close my eyes but it was not darkness that welcomed me beyond the line that led my consciousness to a point.
NAH!
My eyes opened and I found myself in an underground laboratory, standing between the Homunculus encircling an altar. In the middle of the altar, a red-haired girl woke up, removing the device on her head. With her green eyes that reminded me of the leafy leaves of the trees, she looked at me coldly.
… No, it's impossible. The mastermind behind the homunculus…. Lady Luciel is!
Unable to move and speechless, I could only watch as the gun was pointed at my forehead.
“Haah, what a pity. Though you are my most perfect doll, Chrysant, “ Seraphina said before—
DOR!!
… !
Waking up I found myself in a cave. The bonfire drove out the cold from the body and a delicious aroma emerged from the cookery pan. Suddenly from inside the cave I heard the sound of relaxed footprints, before a man greeted me,
“Report, this cave is dead-end again, my boss! It's been two weeks that we've been down to Underworld, hundreds of caves we've explored, but none of them end up to the underground headquarters of White Order,” said Saber who took the ration from his spatial ring, “I'm curious, is it possible that the information we get is just a lie?”
“T-No way,” murmured I can't believe it.
“U-Uh? Captain?”
I held my painful head, but then my amtah opened wide at the sight. Mystelin.
At that moment, I knew I wasn't waking up from a nightmare. It's all real. I've come back in the past for a big fee. A Truth.
