"Do know why I'm telling you this?"Storm hardened his gaze."It's because, deadman tells no tales. Apex!"Storm widened his eyes as Garrick became enveloped in his shadow. "Tck, Shadow Apex." "That's not all," Garrick smirked. "Relic Awakening!""Apex and Relic Awakening?" "Behold, the power that you could never achieve!" Garrick folded his arms. "With this, I don't just control my shadow, but every shadow! I don't have to lift a hand to punish you, boy.""The pressure he's releasing..." Storm clicked his tongue. "It's unlike anything I've ever seen."Storm's body became heavy. His mind was giving commands but his body was not following. He hardened his gaze at thr man in front of him. "Why can't I move?" He said to himself. "Is this what true fear feels like?" Storm's body froze completely upon witnessing his father's powers. He knew first-hand how powerful the phantom lord was. But now, he had crossed the boundaries of power that he'd given him credit for."You have this mu
Kaze looked on with horror at the man in front of him.Nothing changed on Fiend's body but hr could tell from a singlr glance. "He's gotten stronger. Way stronger!" "Behold," Fiend spreads his arms apart."My true power!"All seismic sense and insight users gasped."This energy spike, it's insane!""Tck, now what?" Kaz clicked his tongue. "It's coming from Fiend."Zed who had regained consciousness managed to pick himself up. He was at thr highest row where the fight has not reached."What on earth is going on!" He widened his eyes."Zoddy!"Kira skips through the chairs and reaches her partner. "You're finally awake.""How long have I been out?" Last thing he remembered was clashing with Storm for the finals. He smiled recalling the thrill of the fight but quickly transformed that smile into a frown. "Hehe. You won fair and square, Storm Walker.""That aside." Zed looked over at the colloseum. He spotted countless people dressed in black fighting against the participants of the tour
The battle of the colloseum rages on. With the enemies ranks cut by over half, the participants have received a glimmer of hope. "We're still outnumbered." Coby stated. "And tired too!" Scott adds as he slashes away the enemies. "Who gave you the permission to get tired!?" Vex snapped making the two to puff their chests. "No one sir!" They said in unison."Good. Now, let's kick some butts, Blaze on!" On another part of colloseum, Storm was staring down his father. "I will put an end to your madness, not just for my sake. But for Reed and Keith!" He declared. Garrick laughed. "Who do you want to help? The brothers you abandoned? The one who would slit his throat at my word. Or the one who's locked up in the dungeon?" Storm gasped. "What did you do to Keith!?" "Lower voice, child." Garrick said calmly yet the dominating vibes he was giving off made Storm flinch momentarily. "Do not forget that I birthed and raised you!" "Our mother birthed us. And she raised us. You turned us
"Thunder God X3!" Kaze released a tremendous power while facing Marrick. He turned to Tanya who had been spectating their fight. "Go help out the others. I'll be fine." She was reluctant to leave at first but saw the look of determination on his face. She silently nods her head and flies off to another section of the colloseum. The muscular Don grinned. "Where did you learn that technique boy?"Kaze summoned Mjolnir again. He had returned the relic when he began his fist fight with the Don. "I can't beat him without going all out." He had been fighting Marrick on equal footing for a while now but hasn't made any progress or step closer to defeating him. The Thunder User hated to admit, but this man in front of him gave off a dominating pressure unlike any he had ever seen. "I asked you a question, boy." Marrick folded his arms."And I am not entitled to give you an answer. I learned this technique from a benefactor." "I see..." Marrick closes his eyes. Kaze noticed the man's
Valor took off his robe revealing a large muscular body. It was admirable considering his age.He stares off against Marrick who grins in excitement. With Daniel and Kaze standing behind him."Kiddos," Valor faced the duo and smiled. "Why don't you lend a hand to your leader. Garla and I will handle this one." He pointed at Marrick with his thumb."Hahaha!" Marrick laughs maniacally. "Finally! A fight worth fighting." "Old man," Daniel glares at Marrick. "Don't die.""Give my regards to your captain. I won't be here without your efforts." "Thank him yourself," Daniel said nonchalantly. "Come on big guy."Kaze had been staring down at Marrick the entire time. He clenched his fists. "I'm weak. Too weak. After coming so far, I couldn't match up to him." Daniel seemd to have figured out what was going on in his mind.He places his hand on his shoulder. "I'm not one to give motivation but... Valor lost to him once, remember. You did good lasting so long. If you're worried about Storm.
Fiend was having a difficult time fighting the saints. Even with his enhanced strengths, three saints were too much for the mad clown."Tck, at this rate. I'll be turned to dust." He said to himself as he moves around the field dodging a series of aerial attacks from Harold and Jacob's sniping. "I commend you for pullin' through so far," Said Jacob. "But, you bit off more than you can chew clown. And I reckon, we're going to end you."Vex was the only one fighting the clown head on. In his Fused state, he proved to be an equal match for Fiend. If it had been anyone else, the saints would have won already. But Fiend had used his wits so far to avoid fatal blows from the three of them who were attacking relentlessly.Harold covered the skies launching aerial attcaks. Vex fought him hand to hand while Jacob provided backup with his sniping.Fiend would create clones to avoid fatal attacks that he couldn't dodge. That was how he had kept up with them. "This won't be happening if it was
(FLASHBACK) Storm was speaking with Daniel, this was a day before the Valiant games. "I'm Daniel. And I am after the Mage breakers." Storm didn't know how to react at first. But eventually... "Tell me everything you know... There are so many mysteries with my life. I want to know my origin." "On one condition - You accept me in Tempest." Storm contemplated for a bit before agreeing. "Very well." "First off. You have a twin and an elder brother. Your Father is the True Mage breaker sent to take your system." Storm was baffled. This was the second time he met someone that was aware of the existence of his system. "Chill, Demon spawn. I've been keeping an eye on you all year in the academy. And I respect you." "That's why you want to join us?" "Yep, however I'll be going on a mission to free one of the Specters." "Specters?" "Think of them as protectors of the world and very powerful mages. Your father was a former Specter before he went rouge. Anyways... Keith and Reed, tho
It was a stare of between the former captain of the Valhalla Team and the captain of the Red Soul Team. "I'll be damned if I let some coward take my Cobby away from us!""Coward!?" Tommaso hardened his gaze.Vex smirked seeing that his words had an effect on him. "We all say it." He shrugged."You disbanding Valhalla to save yourself from Storm. If that's not cowardly, I don't know what is?" Vex's words sliced through the tense air, each syllable dripping with contempt. His stance was aggressive, his eyes locked onto Tommaso with a challenging glare.Tommaso clenched his fist, the veins on his knuckles bulging with suppressed anger. He wanted to strike Vex right in the face, to wipe that smug expression off with a single punch. But he held back, his eyes flickering to Scott and Cobby, who were both readying themselves for a fight. They weren't taking any chances. Even with Gou by his side, Tommaso knew he would struggle to take on all three, especially when they were on high alert an
