Chapter 10
Declare of the War
Part 3
-----------------------
Back to the city
Kill them! (a voice echoing inside Matsui’s brain)
“HYAAAAAAAAA!” King Matsui launched another attack toward them.
PLAAANNNNGGGG“The great physician Oshima and the royal alchemist Minegishi come to rescue” both of them stand before Matsui and make a pose (like power rangers).
“M….Mom?!” Kuu gasp at what he saw just now.
“How have you been, Kuu?” Minegishi make another pose and flicked her finger, winking at her son.
“Watch out, Mom!!”
King Matsui attacks her from behind, she slides to the right and slides behind him, locking his arms with hers. King Matsui tackled her down in judo style, he grab her legs and spinning, throwing her away. While in there, Oshima kneels beside Atsuko and heal his wounds, “Goddess of the light, show me your leniency from above, let me heal the wounds of this misfortune”
Mario’s wound healed by Oshima in just few seconds, she gets up and joined the fight with the others – Minegishi, Haruna, Kuu and Minami attack King Matsui while Oshima healing Atsuko’s wounds. Blood still flowing nonstop from Atsuko’s body, his heartbeat is getting weaker and weaker.
// This is bad, His wounds won’t heal just by using power. He needs the herbal potion to stopping his blood comes out more //“Light, water, fire, lightning, and wind… perfect, all the crilyst are gathering here” The black dressed woman stand on top of the tower and watches them fighting. She began to recite death spell to call the undead under the ground. One by one undead burst out from the ground, the dead bodies of citizen and guards also become undead.
“VENGEANCE WIND!!” King Matsui launched the ultimate skill toward them.
“MAD PHOENIX!”
“THOUSAND BOLT!”
“HAZARD BLADE!”
Oshima dragged Minegishi and Mario back from the area, “Step back, you don’t have powers” Oshima joined Minami, Haruna, and Kuu to fight Matsui’s power.
“JUDGEMENT LIGHT!”
The whole area become dazzled… full of dazzling light everywhere. After minutes the light becomes dimmer and dimmer and gone. The whole area is damaged, half of the undead vanished. They can’t win against the fatigue, losing so much strength to fight Matsui. Oshima, Minami, Haruna, and Kuu fall down and sit on the ground. King Matsui still stands there with his sword hold on tight in his hand. He smiled and slowly approaches them.
“Thank you…” King Matsui showed his regards to Oshima and Minegishi. Because of the interaction between crilyst, Matsui regained his sense. “I have gained my consciousness” He reaches his hand to Kuu, “Not bad for you too… can handle my attack without power from crilyst” he is waiting for Kuu to hold his hand.
Kuu confused and look at his mom. Minegishi just nodded and smiled at him. King Matsui hold Kuu’s hand and put something shiny on it. It is crilyst… the wind crilyst, and Atsuko’s water crilyst.
“Please protect it for me”
SSRRRUUUTTTA black fabric snatched the crilyst from Kuu’s hand, “Hahahha… give me yours too!” the fabric snatched Haruna’s necklace. Knowing that all of the holders of crilyst become weak from the fight, the black dressed woman ordered the left undead to attack.
“Hahahahaha… I got your crilyst!!!” the woman’s voice echoing in whole city.
STAB“Hahahaha…. Hihiihi… ne, okotte iru?” A rapier stabbed through the woman’s stomach, Princess Rena is grinning behind the woman. She licked the blood stained on her face, “blekk… your blood is so bitter”
Rena holds the woman tightly in her arms and recites the spell to awake her beast power. “Power of the beast, obey me… listen to my command… I, Matsui Rena sacrifice this person blood in your honorable sword. Awake from your sleep, time to have your meal… with this very soul… VENGEFUL WOLVES!”
The black dressed woman’s blood floating in the air and formed three wolves head behind Rena. Rena grinning insanely and whispered beside the woman’s ear, “Let’s finish this…”
The wolves screaming are echoing loud in the whole city. Minami and the others pressed their ears hard, even the undead were hurt from the sound. The wolves covered Rena and the woman like a womb… red laser light is coming from inside.
BAAAAMMMMMA loud explosion coming from that womb… buildings around them is damaged into dust.
“Hahaha… hahhahaha…”
The woman smirked ominously and turned to face Rena and kicked her. “Is this the power of crilyst?”
Rena’s beast rune can’t win against the crilyst and disappeared within dust. She pulled her sword from her body and stabbed it back to Rena’s stomach, “DIE!” She releases her powers toward Rena, makes her flying backward and crushed into the building.
“Rena!!!” King Matsui screamed.
The undead began to attack them. Hundreds of undead crowded the street. Just as when the woman want to flee away, two strong figures came out and kick her to the ground.
Seeing the figure of those two men, Oshima shouted at them, “You are so late! Maeda! Your son is dying!!!”
King Maeda appeared with King Takahashi. Maeda shocked at Atsuko’s condition, left arm lost, his white clothes all red… and laying there unmoving.
“How dare you hurt my son!!!” King Maeda thrust toward her.
“Actually is me who cut his left arm…” King Matsui whispered silently at himself, felt guilt about Atsuko.
“How dare you hurt my future son-in-law!!!” King Takahashi joined the fight with Maeda.
King Matsui doesn’t want to be left out and joined the fight too, “How dare you controlled my mind!!!”
“Let’s try this power…” the black dressed woman used the power of three crilyst together. Those three crilyst are shinning and its aura surrounds her body. “HYAAAA!!”
“PHOENIX DANCE!”
“DRAGON MIST!”
“HARPOON STORM!”
Those three Kings’ strength is not match for the power of three crilyst. They are flying backward and crushed into the building behind them. The woman turned to face the others and grinning madly, “So… this is the power of crilyst… I want more… I WANT MORE…”
“No good, let’s retreat!” Minegishi called, “Atsuko’s life is more important. Let’s retreat!!”
“Mom! The undead block the way toward persona!” Kuu called his mother. Minegishi push a button on her watch, then the persona is in auto pilot mode. It’s floating about 7 feet from the ground.
Oshima approach Yuko and gave her his light crilyst, “Yuko, please keep this crilyst safe. You can use it to save Atsuko, I’m counting on you. Kuu! Use your ability to send Atsuko and Minami into persona first”
Oshima and Minegishi take care of the hundreds undead while the three Kings fight against black dressed woman.
Kuu gathered his Nen to fly Atsuko’s body to the main deck of plane, next is Minami, then Yuko, and the last is Haruna. He looks around to see who will be the next. He spotted Mario and concentrate to send her to persona but he is too exhausted now that Mario falls back to the ground. She hit the ground very hard and got surrounded by undead. Kuu runs into her and banishes those undead.
“Are you okay?” asked Kuu.
“How can you be okay if you fall down from the middle of the air?” Mariko pissed.
“That’s because you’re so heavy, you should try some diet” Kuu joked. Mario gets up to hit Kuu, she give him right punch. Kuu grabbed her right hand and pulled her closer, turns her around in circle, and holds her up in bridal style.
“Lend me your legs for a while” He spins in circle and get rid those undead by Mario’s long legs then he flies up to the air toward persona but Kuu has reached his limits. When they almost there to persona, Kuu falls downward. He throws Mario to the main deck and falling down.
“Brat!” Mario is calling Kuu from the persona.
With a smiling face, Kuu screams, “Please pray for my safety!” and disappear within night clouds.
“You better live” Mario wiped her tears.
