Chapter 43 - Chapter 43 - The persevering trio

The battle seemed to be at its climax and because the young people did not have in mind to be defeated, Tetsu put his two hands together and then a great aura began to sprout from him, expelling a lot of magic from his body– Let me heal your wounds, Light – he said in a serious tone. It was then that Light saw something that left him paralyzed with shock. The pieces of metal scales embedded in his body were transforming and gradually turned into blood, as if it were some kind of miracle. The new blood entered through the holes in Light's skin caused by the wounds causing him to recover a good amount that he lost during the fight, returning a lot of strength to his body.

-Light: W-What was this? The steel has completely dissolved and entered me, it turned into blood, and I have recovered a good amount of it...

-Tetsu: Steel is composed of iron. This property can be found in the blood we possess and because of this, I spent many years trying to perfect this technique, by means of this compound I have managed to transform the metal to turn it into totally new blood!

-Light: Are you able to do these things with your powers?

-Tetsu: If I really must risk everything in this fight, I'm going to implement my most dangerous techniques to come out victorious!

-Shiko: I can't believe it... Tetsu is able to take his power to this extreme... If he was in better condition, I can't imagine how strong he would be.

-Light: Don't think I'm going to be left behind... I'm going to risk everything too!

-La'Parca: Shut your mouths and accept your death as it should be brats!

Fed up with his enemies, the specter used his technique "Lost souls" to eliminate his opponents once and for all, but at the same time while Light let all the adrenaline run through his body, he let out all his power, unleashing his beast powers without becoming a dragon. The amount of magic was so overwhelming that it made the island tremble all the time that it kept expelling his power, it was then that he turned to see his enemy and was very angry, he joined the fingers of his two hands and when he opened them he created blue beam, Keeping these on between each finger – Let those damn souls come to me– he pronounced. Listening to it, La'Parca mocked him – It is too late to try to resist – he said with great confidence, being reproached by Tetsu – If I were in your position, I would get rid of that ego right now – he said in a mocking tone. Seeing the field again, the wraith felt fear, watching as all the souls out of his portal avoided hitting Light at all costs, heading to crash into any other surface - W-What? Y-Your power has been so overwhelming that the souls have been frightened... "It's ridiculous..." he said, unable to believe what had happened.

The two brothers stood alongside, ready to use everything of themselves in the next move, so Shiko looked at them from behind and thought:

"They are... Incredible, I haven't known them for long, but they fight by my side giving everything of themselves, their trust... their effort, their faith, really make me able to feel that I have a long way to go to be like them, what I feel... it really is admiration".

The young man was very tired. However, this made him able to keep his will from breaking to continue. That's when Light turned to Shiko.

-Light: Hey, rampant dragon. I'm sure the two of us here aren't the ones with loose strings. You've shown me that you're completely crazy and do absurd things to achieve victory This is the best time for you to show us that great ingenuity you have! This fight is between the three of us, we are going to give it our all!

-Shiko: Y-yes... You're right, we must give it our all. We're not going to let that monster get away with it! Let us succeed in avenging all those souls who have suffered because of this wretch!

-Tetsu: That's the spirit... shadow dragon Shiko.

-La'Parca: Surrender to your death!!

-Shiko: Use your techniques, I follow you!!

Leaving everything of themselves in the fight, both the young men and the monster decided to use totally lethal techniques against their enemies. La'Parca made an intense flame rise from a huge magic circle - Inferno!! – he exclaimed as he went towards them. It was then that the two young men raised their hands in the direction of their opponent, forming a huge ball of energy charged with electricity and metal - Dragon twins! – exclaimed the young men, firing it in the direction of the monster. Shiko, who was in the back, once again performed his "Shadow dragon's claw" making the attack follow Light and Tetsu's technique.

It was inevitable, the combination of techniques collided with each other, causing each technique to head in the direction it had despite the huge collision of the attacks due to the great power of these, hurting every fighter who was on the field. Too much power caused another number of tremors throughout the island.

-Yun: This rumble... was it another collision?

-Mayla: Every time that the earth shakes, they make me worry more and I start to get tired of transferring energy... I hope you are well and finish this soon...

-Asuka: Miss Mayla, how does your power work? It seems to me that you should oversee going to help them with Alba. Because I'm the least tired person, I can replace you by being the one transferring energy to them.

-Mayla: Would you do that? Sounds perfect to me. The ability is already activated, just hold this thread and that's it, with that said Alba come with me!

-Yun: Good, I'll stay with Rikka to support Asuka with my magic and continue to help.

-Alba: Let's not waste any more time then!

Once the pair of young women retreated to be of help in the battle, Yun and Rikka remained silent, touching Asuka's shoulders to transfer magic so that she would continue to help those who were fighting.

-Rikka: My eyesight... sometimes it gets cloudy... sometimes I see clearly...

-Yun: Is the situation that dangerous?

-Rikka: Yes... it is the first time it has happened... my visions... they are not being clear.

-Asuka: Visions?

-Yun: Oh... you see, Rikka has a special ability. She is capable of seeing visions. They appear suddenly, but once you have them, destiny cannot be changed. However, the person who has trained her to control this ability said that visions do not always ensure that the predestined happens.

-Asuka: Isn't that contradictory?

-Rikka: It is… but I would like to… that sometimes they could be changed…So, today... I can tell that maybe… the fate of my visions can be changed... because it's not clear... the truth is, I had predicted that someone else would die before this moment, but... it has not happened, destiny is constantly changing.

-Yun: This is because of the great power of the young promise, it's really happening, it gives me goosebumps.

Meanwhile, the entire battlefield was being covered by an enormous amount of dust, in which no one could see each other. Throughout the field, each young man was lying on the ground, covered in wounds and barely with the strength to stay alive - I see... If this is the level of this monster, I can't imagine the power I need to defeat... Eclipse – Shiko said to himself as he tried to get up – Little humans...have really been arrogant in trying to challenge me – the voice of La'Parca was heard somewhere in the place. Tetsu, who was lying between some stones, pronounced with a low voice that came out – No... don't think we've given up...as long as I remain awake, they will not perish – he said very wearily and then, He used all his strength to execute the previous las move, taking the metal sheets scattered on the field to turn them into blood and heal the wounds caused to his two companions. Because of this, his teammates healed their wounds quickly and their fatigue felt greatly reduced, making them able to stand up. However, these were in their base state due to the amount of magic consumed.

-Shiko: Tetsu... you used the last of your remaining magic... so rest while you recover with the magic borrowed from miss Mayla...

-Light: Don't overdo it, please stay there... we... We'll take care of it at all costs because this bastard has made me too angry up to this point.

-La'Parca: Darn you... Unlike I who is very hurt, they are managing to heal their wounds, I must exterminate them quickly.

-Shiko: Scared, you piece of shit? Tetsu has placed his hopes in us, I am not going to give in.

-Light: I'm sick of you, I'm going to tear you to pieces!

La'Parca mocked the pair of young men and when he was about to say a few words, in a few moments Light appeared in front of him, who quickly filled his fingers with lightning and landed a direct hit against the specter - Shut up and die at once! – said the enraged young man. Without warning, Shiko was also on the specter's backs - Huh, what? Insects, how have you managed...? – said the monster confused, to which, without having time to react, Shiko cut him off, causing him a lot of damage with his attack "Blade dash". Fed up with being hurt and knowing that his time was running out, the very enraged specter shouted towards his opponents- Daring bastards, this time I'll make you really suffer! Forward my wraiths, Dark Spirit Hands! –causing two huge arms of ghosts to appear from the ground, pounce on them - Damn it Shiko, watch out for them! – Light said, warning Shiko about the attack. Then he dodged the arms which were close to catching him and used a new move – I remember when I fought Deaby, I had the opportunity to be able to hurt the shadows I was using because of my powers...I think I'm able to do the same with these damned ones – and then he covered his sword totally in shadows turning it into a weapon created in completely from shadows - Dark sword generated! – he exclaimed.

-Light: Shiko... Be careful, he can use his hands as decoys to attack.

-Shiko: Light, I have a plan, I need you to entertain them.

Without knowing the moves that his enemy could do, Shiko uttered these words looking at Light fully trusting his partner. That's when the spectral arms were directed at Light –Well... they have come for me without having to get their attention – He said to himself, starting a battle between the arms and his electrical powers to keep them distracted and allow his partner to perform his move. Without succeeding in harming his opponent, the arms continued to attack Light, who was easily able to dodge their attacks – If I keep my lightning on, I can produce enough light and notice the shadow they generate when they move to predict their attacks, they are really useless against me – he said with a mocking and tired tone. It was then that he raised his sword, and it stretched out as if it were a whip, cutting one of the arms that attacked his companion – Mumumu, I was expecting for your move, shadow dragon – mentioned La'Parca. It was then that the arm that was split in two, generated a new hand from its cut point, causing this time to result in three arms attacking Light – It can't be, I really hate things that really happened in this way– commented the young man very suffocated by the attacks while Shiko exclaimed - Damn, I have really fallen into your trap! – because of his mistake.

"Now, no matter how much you dodge, it will be impossible for you not to take damage from something, Mumumumumu! – were the words of the spectre who, despite being very hurt, continued to be proud–

Now that they're distracted, I can pick my next goal! – he said with great confidence, directing one of his arms towards Tetsu, who was defeated...

To be continued...
