Chapter 9 - Death

As his Domain encased her she felt her soul tremble in horror as she fell to her knees. The Domain ruthlessly sliced her flesh apart under her broken armor.

She bled horribly from the cuts as blood leaked from her eyes, ears, nose and mouth.

Sakrius stood in front of her kneeling figure and looked down at her as he wiped some of the blood from her face with his finger and licked it.

"Your blood tastes a lot better than those others, well it's expected since you're a lot more powerful."

She was silent to his provocations as she pulled out a small talisman from space and mumbled "Rebirth." Then her body shone golden as Sakrius cancelled his Domain. "Looks like you still have some strength left."

All her wounds healed and her body was covered with a beautiful golden halo as two extra golden wings materialized on her back, she summoned her lifted her spear that had fallen when she knelt and pointed it at Sakrius with determination as both of them needed no words to know what was next.

They launched themselves forward as they met in the middle and sent a flurry of raging attacks on each other, striking millions of times each second. The violent shockwaves ripped the city apart in seconds.

Sakrius was sent flying by a kick to the chest by Valkyria as he quickly regained balance in the air. Valkyria was already upon him ready to pierce him with her spear, he spun his body and delivered a kick of his own to bat her spear away, but she switched stance and grabbed his leg before hurling him straight into the ground.

She dove down and landed right on his chest breaking fracturing some of his ribs, her eight wings glowed golden as they flapped violently against him slicing his body with startling speed and burning him even more, but instead of screaming in pain Sakrius shouted with vigor "YES COME ON, SHOW ME WHAT YOUR MADE OF!!"

He grabbed two of her wings and pulled hard bringing her body against his as he headbutted her hard sending her into a daze before punching her into the sky. She flapped her wings strongly and thrust her spear thousands of times as a rain of light fell upon him. But Sakrius sent a wave of red mist that collided with the light in a desperate battle for supremacy.

Valkyria dove down and activated falling star again as her speed increased and her body shined. Sakrius planted both feet into the ground and readied himself to face her attack. "Arrogant." She mumbled to herself as she appeared in front of Sakrius and swung her spear forward.

Sakrius grabbed the spear and pushed back against her, Valkyria increased the speed of her wings as they caused wind blades that sliced entire lands apart but still Sakrius stood strong not moving from his position as the land around him had already been destroyed by the force they were unleashing against each other.

"This is where you meet your end." Sakrius said as he pulled her downwards, redirecting her fall before kneeling her hard in the stomach making her cough out blood, her wings pierced his chest, stomach and arms but he didn't seem to care as he threw her on the ground face down.

He grabbed her two golden wings put his foot on her spine and ripped them off destroying the artefact. He pulled her body upward with her back facing his chest and bit into her top left wing, biting it off ruthlessly. Her body exploded in white as she tried to escape from his grasp but he held her middle right wing stopping her, so she turned her spear around and sliced that wing off.

She turned around as her spear shone brilliantly with white and her body flashed at extreme speed as light sliced Sakrius from all sides as she appeared behind him Sakrius turned his body slightly ready for another violent retaliation but her body flashed once again as she appeared in front of his turning figure and thrust her spear.

The damaged spear pierced into Sakrius' chest as blood poured out of his mouth and blood flowed down the spear as Sakrius slumped slightly as his hands held the spear weakly, and impaled himself even more on her spear as more blood poured and he looked right into her eyes and punched her hard in the face, breaking her nose.

He bit into her neck ripping out a large amount of flesh and kicked her away as her spear fell next to her on the ground.

She landed on the ground bloodied, exhausted and in pain. Meanwhile Sakrius was also bloodied but the crazy smile he had on his face made him look better than worse.

"Being honest, you're the strongest person I've ever fought, you should acknowledge yourself for that at least. But." He paused.ca

"What are you gonna do now." Sakrius questioned amused by her current state.

'He is much more powerful than we thought I can't let him leave here alive so I'll have to use those' She thought somberly as she placed her hand on her neck to stem the bleeding and picked her spear up using the other hand.

She pulled out a cross-shaped artefact and pointed it at him before saying "Legendary artefact Divine Crucifix." A golden cross appeared behind Sakrius and shot several lights at him that quickly bound him to the cross as Valkyria pulled out another artefact held it in her hand and said "Souls of the fallen strengthen my blade." From the horizon thousands of glowing white and gold souls fused into her blade fueling it with great power.

She crushed the artefact in her hand and shouted "Mythical artefact Demonic Extermination." Her blade turned so bright that it became a mini sun lighting up almost half of the entire realm as she trusted the blade straight into Sakrius' chest and the light poured into him burning his body swag and disintegrating his soul leaving no trace of him behind.

The light of her spear dimmed before disappearing as she nearly fell on the ground keeping stable with her spear as she drew in breath after breath, she felt a hidden danger and turned her head to see what it was and saw the three demons that had attacked Sakrius looking at her with murderous intent.

"You demons are really scum." She spat at them but then smiled and said "But it looks like Sakrius still has one more gift in store for us."

They were confused but suddenly a large creature formed of red mist with a gaping wide maw and bloodied sharp claws appeared in front of them, it swung its claw and crushed all four of them in a single swipe as red and golden blood stained the ground before the creature vanished.

And just like that six great figures died...

Or should I say five.😶
