“Sam?!” Elyenora shouted at the man oozing with insanity.
“Hahahaha!” Samuel continued to laugh. “Oh, how I’ve longed for the day I have the strength to use nuclear destruction magic!”
“Samuel!” Elyenora called out again, moving up to him.
But he on kept laughing. And laughing, and laughing. As if nothing around him mattered other than the strength he came to possess.
So she slapped him. “Samuel!”
He got immensely taken aback by that. “W-What?”
“Do not go crazy on us!” Elyenora pointed at his nose with her index finger, showing him a rather mean look and a pout.
“I am not crazy!” Samuel defended himself, swinging his hand to the side while placing the other at his chest. “I’ve finally done it, Ely! I’ve achieved the thing I needed for so long! The thing I only found out was possible after meeting Namir! That same thing I should have known my eyes would be capable of with just a slight push forward! This is my very own specialty
“Tag team?” Elyenora questioned, her head tilting to the side, then shaking it. “I don’t like that idea.”Mon’Ter glanced at her. “Well there aren’t many other options, are there?”“Not now, but we could…” Elyenora began, only to be cut short.“There are no buts,” Mon’Ter rebuked. “Anyone other than me would die against him when he uses that time ability, Samuel has a few cards to play which would lead to him evading being targeted altogether. You three don’t.”“So you just mean to leave us in the barrier?!” Lanos thundered, moving up to Mon’Ter and looking up at him. “No, I’m fighting.”“How?” Mon’Ter asked him. “How will you fight when he can make it so you can’t move and then cut your head off?”“How will you fight when he cuts Your head off?” Lanos
Mon’Ter stood at the edge of the vast cosmos opened by the corruption. His two eyes hawking on the far off Finis as they both held their standoff.“He’s not coming,” Mon’Ter mumbled, narrowing his gaze.“Probably just wary of you,” Samuel said whilst floating on the side and standing in a barrier. “You do have one of your arms back and a completely different physique than before, after all, he’s probably wondering about you.”“True,” Mon’Ter tilted his head. “So what? How do I bring him back here?”“Seems like the only way is to go to him, but…” Samuel gazed at the vast abyss. “I’m not sure treading past here is something living beings are meant to do…”“Well there isn’t much choice in the matter,” Mon’Ter said. “Our whole reason for being here is to purify that guy, if he thinks he can
‘Impossible…’ Finis thought to himself. ‘How could he…?’The deathly knight flew across the cosmos, farther and farther away from the approaching Phoenix that had become of Mon’Ter. His thoughts wandered anew, as his glittering eye of gold flickered endlessly. ‘How could he simply cut through my blade? Flames, and all?’Mon’Ter bared his teeth, swinging his left arm of flame with the might of a thousand suns, its crimson fire burning at the adversary as it neared.‘I can’t… Dodge!’ Finis’ mind fluttered into a panic, and thus, he used his ability.In an instant, the attacking Mon’Ter had been cleaved in twain from the chest down, the raging black flames burning his torso away into ashes while Finis stood more than a kilometer away, his sword looking brand new.‘That should have…’ Finis breathed a sigh of relief, he turned around to
“Sam!” Elyenora came running up to the snarky mage. He was standing near the perfect cube which he had created to be an arena for the two combatants.“What happened to those two?” she asked worriedly, gazing at the structure still engulfed in chaotic energies from within. “Oh, hey Ely,” Samuel turned to her and the others approaching him. “You’re just in time to see the show.”As he spoke his words, the scenery inside the cube cleared, revealing that Mon’Ter had pinned Finis against the floor in one of the corners. His flaming left hand pushed against the deathly knight’s shattered sword, or at least what Mon’Ter had left of it. Now only the black fire sprouting from his hilt could protect him, but alas for how long?Finis’ armor had been covered in cracks all over, some deep, others outright fallen off and or incinerated. What his body revealed was simply a mass of black fire, p
In an instant, the black flames dissipated. Slowly they fluttered like butterflies, creating an aurora of colors that exploded from the darkness and revealed too many colors to speak of.Spiritus Finis, was being purified.“Is it over?” Sereia quizzed, looking up at the perfect cube with anticipation.“Mon’Ter did it…!” Elyenora smiled, loosening her grip on her hands.“Seems like it,” Namir grinned widely. “Looks like the missions will be a success! Yay!”“Let’s wait and see before we celebrate,” Lanos grumbled. “Though, damn it all… I didn’t get to go all out with Namir’s enhancement spell…”“I didn’t either,” Samuel glanced his way. “But I sure learned a lot,” he grinned widely. “I’m confident that soon enough I’ll be able to master this power all on my own… And then no
Elyenora, Mon'Ter, and Sereia all looked at Samuel with worry while Lanos did his work. Namir held the magical sphere connected to them all still and stood beside him, he himself also seemed to glance at the mage every now and then."What will we do if he has drawbacks…" Sereia mumbled near them."I don't…" Elyenora whispered back, furrowing her brows as she did. "I don't know…""Namir said people died due to it, but…" Mon'Ter joined in. "I hope Sam doesn't have the same thing happen to him…""We'll just have to wait and see then," Sereia said, stretching out her arms and straightening her back as she did. "And we’ll see what happens once we're back in elf town."“Hey, you guys,” Samuel called out to them. “I’ll go check out the rest of this place and see where the treasure room is, we might find some artifacts in here.”“Oh! Magic boom boom stuff!” Namir grin
Elyenora stepped through the gate and soon enough found herself in the midst of a swirling fog of blue, within the time it took her to make the next step, she wound up on the other side and met face to face with Agathon for the second time now, he’d been waiting for them.“Princess Elyenora! I see you’ve returned,” the elvish king spoke with his hands holding one another at his waist. “With good news, perhaps?”He stood a ways away from the teleportation point, simply standing there and awaiting their arrival since the moment they had made the connection in between the two spots. Agathon had an enormous smile plastered over his face, he obviously anticipated this return with great patience and excitement.“Yes,” Elyenora nodded as the rest of the party came through, along with the now newly purified Spiritus Finis. “We’ve accomplished our goal,” she smiled his way.“Ah! The son of Lor
Mon’Ter walked alongside Spiritus Finis and king Agathon as they made their way towards the room connecting the Nature’s Keep with Mora’s realm of white. Along the hallway, Agathon did not forget to tell his servants about his plan of a grand feast in the nightly evening, he told them to make sure there would be lots of amazing food whenever they decided to return here. Once the servants boasted of how amazing the food would be tonight, Mon’Ter felt like he may very well go back on his word about skipping dinner.‘You know, food does sound like a good thing to have tonight,’ the chimera thought with a finger on his chin, his drool slightly running. ‘Yeah, food would be good, I regret my earlier blunders and revoke them completely!’ he weirdly raised a hand as if making a victory pose, which shocked the servants and surprised the two people he’d been following. Mon’Ter didn’t mind, he simply thought more about t
