Chapter 4 - Chapter Four: The Finals, Desmonds Power

It was almost like a play by play, every moment towards Melania powering up- towards the battle between Void, and the destruction of Wyro. The following day had all led to these characters being in the same place at the same time. But for what reason, why had they crossed paths at a time like this? What was Melania planning, and who was watching over all of it?

The Same Mountaintop | Hours Later...

Shaded Figure: Weaklings, all of these creatures. In do time my dearest, Desmond Kitebearer.

The Sewers

Samo Hatu: Dammit, alright. I got one shot at this, hope it works. PSYCHO ABILITY - ACTIVATE - WOLF KNIGHT - INFRARED COLLISION

The very mild lighting of the sewers had went pitch black, and only shades or green and red lured every so often. The smell didn't contribute to the atmosphere, and the growls of the beast led near. But yet, it was blinded- relying on smell, taste, or touch. Samo Hatu could see clear as day, activating an ability he'd picked up fighting a Minotaur at the age of 20.

Samo Hatu: C'mere, little bit closer. A little bit closer-

A pit scratched out below, scrapes from a Wolf, no- The Wolf. Leading to a hefty fall, almost surely would kill anything falling down. The aroma and scents covered by the stench of the water, and ability masking the Hunters aura. Within a few steps, *BOOM* .

Wyro had fallen into the pit, a beastly creature defeated by physics and gravity. Samo Hatu led out a huge sigh, as his energy plummeted.

Samo Hatu: *Tch* Why do I feel so weak...?

Melania: Oh, I'm sorry Wolf. The beast, he wasn't meant to kill you- You're a Hunter after all. He was just, a combination of my last few meals is all. No, I wanna saver you- YOU WILL BE MY FEAST. ONCE I AM FULLY EMPOWERED, I WILL DEVOURE YOU WHOLE WOLF.

Samo Hatu: *Guh* Dammit, not like this. I gotta get up, you crazy bitch- I'm just a bit injured, nothing serious YOU HEAR ME?

Samo Hatu fell into the water, carried towards Melania, lying unconscious

Melania: No mortal can without my aura, not for that long at least. You are strong Wolf, I'll enjoy devouring you.

The Shaded Woods

Caitlyn: Desmond, I'm sorry- I have to let my energy recover, I used up all my strength on that last Demon. So please, hold him off for a bit.

Desmond: Never fought a Demon before, hell I ain't fought much, but I gotta stop you. Awakened or not you hear me? I know Caitlyn ain't done- whatever you're doing. Whatever is in the air, it's weakening her isn't it. It's your master isn't it?

Void: Unfortunately for you, you'll never be able to stop her. I'll have killed you long before then.

Desmond: Why the hell ain't I affected by this shit? I ain't nothin' special. But you know what- I'll take it as a win, I'M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS.

Void: Finally, I get to see something fun.

Desmond: PSYCHO ABILITY: ACTIVATE - Psycho Chill (also known as Psycho Freeze) - RICHOCHET HAIL STORM - ICE SCYTHE WIND ATTACK

The leaves flew into the air as a large Ice scythe slashed towards the Devil. His body grown large and fat from an Awakening, almost like a Devilish Evolution. The damage was repaired in a moment as the devil blasted a ray of dark energy towards the boy. The u fished attack was followed by a richochet affect form the trees. Hail covered the area as the battle continued. The large size of the devil didn't stop his speed, with just a par second the devil had grabbed a hold of Desmond. Crushing his arms slowly, blood leaked on both sides as he screamed.

Desmond: GUHHHHH, GAHHHH- D... DAMMIT. I, CAN'T LOSE LIKE... THIS.

Desmonds Memories [ "Think about what the geezer would say, you gotta think more Desmond. Romeo and Carrie are worried sick, Argyle needs help at the steed- come home, we need you".

Desmond: Yea, sorry guys- I'll never try to run away again].

Desmond: (in his head) That was 10 years ago, I can't give up on people like them, they helped me. Even in their final moments, I gotta... I GOTTA GET STRONGER FOR PEOPLE LIKE THEM.

Void: What is this I feel? It feels, weird-

A large sword made of Ice gashed entirely through Void's shell, his protective layer decimated without hesitation. The Sword pierced entirely through his body, as he screamed in agony. Desmond flung back, with tears in his eyes. His hands burned from the ice; he let out a scream.

Desmond: I'LL NEVER LOSE TO SOEMTHING LIKE YOU, I GOTTA GET STRONGER FOR THEM.

Void tried to move as the ice grew thicker, almost covering his entire body.

Caitlyn: The Devil is... Empowered- how did he? That's not possible...

Desmond: ICE FLAMES - JAW OF EMOTIONS - DEVIL SLAYING ART

Within that moment Desmond had unlocked a new ability, Devil Slaying Magic.

Void: *Gu-* GAHHHHHHHHH... I'LL... I'LL... KILL YOUUUUU-

The large blob of darkness exploded, as the sun went up. The aura began to clear, Desmond fell to his knees.

Caitlyn: He, was able to defeat an empowered Devil...? He's never even seen a Demon before... Who is this kid?

The Sewers

Melania: Devil Slaying Magic, who would have thought. A random boy would have that kind of ability lie dormant. But why here...why now? Who cares- I've reached my potential, nothing can stop me now. Devil Slayer or not... I will take what is mine.

Capital of Condorla | MainLog City

The King of the Land: Something is off... There's been a shift in power, but from where? I'll have to attend to this first hand.
