Well, this is a mess. I watched the whole thing unfold from a safe distance, I didn’t think it was a good time to interfere but now…. everyone is underground.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZUyRngLE5
This has gotten out of hand, I think it’s more important to get my powers back instead of gaining trust from either side.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmxjmcCzTq
I look towards the many pillars in the distance and wonder which one could be hiding the Essence of Zeus. Just to be safe, maybe I should go to the one Caecius is heading. Don’t want him to get his hands on such power.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpJ4BBSAqE
???: “Watch out!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1v7AaXaDzl
Moryuu: “What the-”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhoWkaGBuP
I instinctively moved out of the way of the falling object which seems to be who I’ve been waiting for.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ5iNSF1QC
Moryuu: “About time you showed up.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAQr2u3WOW
The seemingly young boy dusted himself off and rose to meet me face to face. Considering our situation, I’m still surprised he would wear a normal yellow t-shirt and blue jeans like we’re on some vacation. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhDKulOWQz
???: “Sorry, it was hard forcing my way in here but the portal that girl’s bird made helped a lot. Sad what happened to her.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyDF0OZXse
Moryuu: “….Yeah.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCqSb4Ycx6
???: “Well, don’t worry I’m sure her next self will be just as interesting.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXAPjqfqLy
Moryuu: “Maybe, anyway now that you’re here Talon, what’s the plan?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4vaRE0BtO
Talon: “Well, it seems that those guys forgot about the dolls I gave them, oh, here’s a refill on those poison vials.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mYGv9HOcm
Moryuu: “Thanks.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv7U3y3X6i
Talon: “Anyway, I think you had the right idea regarding your powers. Things are getting dicey, try not to kill any more people.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhaNPREz39
Moryuu: “Alright, I’ll try. What about you?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIOAcAPajl
Talon: “I’ll try to find the sleeping bodies of the fallen by teleportation. Their souls should still be in there ready for the next round.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCaBCrJalp
Moryuu: “Right, after that maybe you can help the rest of those alive.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1LmiUDhTH
Talon: “Of course, I can’t wait to actually meet normal people. Well, except maybe Jayden since his organization is similar to mine and I don’t want to be dragged back into that environment.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXAF5vXdee
Moryuu: “Let’s hurry, we don’t have much time.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9MOG6FvE5
Talon: “Never time for a joke to lighten the mood I guess.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3GIQlaJDh
Talon raises his hands and a yellow portal appears beside me.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRyiQVKoE0
Talon: “It’s way easier to open portals inside this place than outside. This should take you to where Caecius is, be careful. Get your powers and leave, I can’t have either of you dying.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0AYxEy6XP
I guess my powers are in the pillar Caecius was heading towards... terrific. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AjzIMaYY8
Moryuu: “You too, don’t mess with the Umbra Lord Gideon.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqhfPQhJhJ
Talon: “You find him interesting?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5gpud6pTi
Moryuu: “I want a rematch with him after I get my powers back….and you’re no match for him. He’d rip you apart.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaWFA0bDlp
Talon grabs his chest in a dramatic manner resembling the melodrama I attempted in my alter ego. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECg2uY0VCC
Talon: “You wound me good man, don’t worry If it’s one thing I’m good at it’s teleporting away.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1T4ULdP2I
I nod and enter the portal to find myself in a near pitch-black structure. There are glimmers of blue light to the right and left of me. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡET6DuknL63
I steel myself for the journey and take the right path, listening closely to see if Caecius is near.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Bm1eSPeGN
A wind mage is too much trouble for me now, especially since he can suffocate me which is pretty high level. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKasBSKDBA
I creep through the dark corridor to come across the blue light from earlier that’s coming from a weirdly floating lantern. Suddenly the Flame begins to dance around and playfully flies deeper into the structure. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdynQ1urBCw
Moryuu: “I guess you want me to follow you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aeq7IDANB
I follow close behind the strange lantern until we find ourselves to what I imagine is the center of the pillar. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdFUlpg0ee
Blue light shines from the top that reveals another sharper pillar in the center of the room with 2 lanterns adorned on 2 of the corners. I guess this little guy is one of them but where’s the last one. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZghBtDxeh
*Footsteps*935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabCg89sA8A
I dash to the nearest hiding place within the cracks of the jagged walls. As expected, Caecius comes walking in with the last lantern. I guess they don’t care who comes in.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVddn1MjqBr
Caecius: “I feel powerful energy here, perhaps it’s really here. Surely it must be fate if I’ve found it so quick.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbziXNuHCi3
He inspects the sharp pillar in the center, searching for a way to unlock the contents of it I gather. I can’t let him get Zeus’s Essence.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUlJiz5LMb
I’ll find a way to get the jump on him, maybe there’s a way to scale the walls. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cHRtGRQHJ
Caecius: “Mmmm?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlrwDA9qr1
I guess that makes too much noise, now what?935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpsW8wlGcA
Caecius: “I know someone is there, come out or I’m coming to you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8o7urlgqO
Unless I have Zeus’s Essence it will be too risky to fight him. I come out of my hiding spot with my hands up.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg3YmSrxOY
Caecius: “So it’s you, the mysterious man. What do you want, come to fight?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrkHAkd3cE
Moryuu: “Not really, I’ve come looking for something.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEH5sY3nf9
Caecius: “Oh, and what would that be.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIznYQgTgn
Moryuu: “Something that belongs to me.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW1gVEpg96
Caecius: “Depending on what that thing is, I might have to kill you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXWvWdr5Wi
Moryuu: “I expected as much.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCUX7dWR7E
This is going smoother than I thought. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiZDUe36Dl
Moryuu: “!!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGnYx8MLDo
Is what I thought until he shot a blade of air near my face, leaving a cut. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjhzBrWa6F
Caecius: “There’s something else I need to know from you, who are you, and what’s your purpose?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lGk7oyF2J
Moryuu: “Is that all, do you want fries with that?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe82c7ffI1Y
Caecius: “*Glare*”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9aC1QqxTy
Moryuu: “I have no problem telling you the truth about this place, I wonder though if you’ll believe me.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4ziR2gZOK
Caecius: “No harm in trying.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQyKjdR4ye
Moryuu: “Fine, the first part of the info dump is the fact that this is not the afterlife.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKoA7QShqC
Caecius: “!!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeYRnxlphg
Caecius: “Explain.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSMGnqCUxS
Moryuu: “I don’t know if your world has something similar but what we’re standing on is actually a dead eldritch god.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWxeNTexG1
Caecius: “But….why and how are there dead people here?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAAAHW2KR7
Moryuu: “Well, an acquaintance says that the nature of this god is to drag souls from other afterlives into this realm that seems like one but with an added twist. Time loops, every time someone dies and comes back, a part of their soul feeds the god and with enough energy, it will revive and cause massive damage to our universes and much more.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORotXb0OKd
Caecius: “….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EfvN0mXSu
Moryuu: “Don’t believe me huh?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7NdiTbgjD
Caecius: “So you’re saying we’ve all died multiple times, came back in the warehouse without much power, and then did the whole thing again but slightly different.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygTz3s3Y0n
Moryuu: “Yep, well, everyone except the Umbras for some reason.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6HdV9YrC0
Caecius: “Impossible, this is too outrageous to believe!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ65szcv9t
Moryuu: “Have you ever wondered why shifts happen?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eTBmERITX
Caecius: “….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA26Trx5PH
Moryuu: “That’s the beast stirring, my job is to keep everyone from dying and maybe work together to do enough damage to it so it loses all the energy it’s been building up. After that, everyone can go back to where they belong.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdQZfzVctt
Caecius: “Let’s say I believe you, why are you here instead of babysitting everyone else?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAxwQwC2HA
Moryuu: “Because there’s an item of great power that can help me do my job.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9iXToua7I
Caecius: “….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh3jB5mwVb
Caecius: “Sorry, I can’t risk believing you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFRm4tdmwr
He swipes his hands and shots a wide blade of air towards me and I narrowly dodge out of the way.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy6vVYzso8
Moryuu: “I knew it, never trust a mage, especially one hellbent on bringing back the dead.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WMloSFG8R
Caecius: “It can be done!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6S8jBj5K8
Moryuu: “Maybe, but the dead should rest.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWUDdqUsEk
Caecius: “Silence!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXrbWJR7qI
Caecius continually blasts out wave after wave of air blades but I dodge them all. Still, it’s hard to maneuver in this-935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDLpIrPLdt
Moryuu: “!!!!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih7ofzs710
I'm….suffocating!935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm9hV2w6q5
Caecius: “Enough of this game, I’ll kill you and get what I've come for.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVGh7YzvhQ
I throw 3 daggers at him and he blocks it with air but it did break his spell. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx6XHtEcPH
Moryuu: “*Cough* *Cough*”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyfiYOBLHA
Moryuu: “I guess you need concentration for that huh?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkbK4etZbr
Caecius: “I don’t need it to kill you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGANZhoNXsk
He shoots more air blades but I jump high up onto the few bars that line the ceiling corners. I let loose more daggers at him from above but he blocks them again.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJy81I0Srp
Caecius: “It’s useless!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWfzDhmvzf
Moryuu: “Is it?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVnha8KAdw
I close my eyes, breathe, and take out my tonfas. I jump down and slam into the ground causing a small crater. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ283SRq3tUE
Caecius: “You’re going to fight me with melee weapons, fool.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNpXnqYkrx
Caecius shots a dozen or so air blades at me but I stay still….and listen.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoTdfvb4h7
The slight movements in the air, the whirling sound of blades, and the split second before impact.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrZF1HM5sZ
My instincts flair up to prepare for the assault.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPEBBgMAYk
…935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyakNP4sfp
..935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiOKLKZs8t

*Slash*935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuICOdQaFu5
*Slash*935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbc4m0UNNg
*Slash*935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxlH2F71ei
Caecius: “Wha, how!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHQFJyqRie
I knocked away all the blades of air, probably causing large gashes in the wall behind me. I was still cut all over but nothing vital has been damaged. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASZIj3P8zV
Moryuu: “What’s wrong, I guess you’re not the best wind user out there.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5ccVW1SUe
Caecius: “You!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0KsK21WFw
I keep my eyes closed and anticipated the assault of air blades.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzZYMTTa5I
I dash forward and reflect the dangerous ones away right before they touch my body while letting others past my defenses so I can keep going.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUv7a7wAzy
Despite the many injuries, I make it right in front of Caecius and hit him in the gut with my Tonfa bypassing his wind barrier. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mfwnChGZg
Caecius: “GAH!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGcSvin28g
He’s sent flying into the wall, still-935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyMf4xj4lM
Moryuu: “Tch.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbaVxjGTw8
I’m not that well off either, I’m breathing heavily and I don’t think that finished the job. Damn, I should have attached an Anti-Magic Dagger to my Tonfa. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqYj04TfFE
Caecius: “*Cough* *Cough*”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuf7pPPVfu
Caecius: “No more playing around, I’m going to…oh my god.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJthAYPzqV
Moryuu: “What?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRIPi7lQzA
I look towards what he’s staring at and behold, there’s the flask of Zeus’s Essence and….something else floating in the air. All where the pillar once stood, I guess it was sliced to bits during the fight.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr77ilmFEF
Caecius: “The Eye….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T6nHZotig
He dashes to the object and I jump too, he can’t have either of them. Whatever the eye is it can’t be good if he has it. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHBP7Uj5V8
He shoots a powerful blunt blast of air towards me which pushes me away but I throw 2 daggers at him and 1 from the blunt side at the flask as I fall. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡux002YsiMu
The flask falls to the ground safely but Caecius grabs the eye. I shake off the pain of the fall and push towards the flash while he’s distracted. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRI3GSD1wX
Caecius: “At last, I’m closer to my goal. Wait for me….Nieth.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLrGWEvdLg
Caecius: “It’s over Moryuu, now that I’m this close to my goal there’s no way I’m losing to you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4tLv1x06V
Moryuu: “Maybe before, but not now.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYXN7GWbGG
Caecius: “What’s that, a potion of some sort? That’s not going to help you here.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7GtsFFFg0
Moryuu: “Well, allow me to surprise you.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1w3ca7dcY
[ Music Plays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojL5Y5HvOlE ]935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG74NcLnIVt
I down the entire flask and instantly, I can feel the power of lightning coursing through me again.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFDvSdEeKl
I’m lifted into the air, my body is electrocuted from within and I begin to feel the almost unbearable pain battering my bleeding body.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZqAVg4GQD
I’ve survived this before, I-I’ll....survive ...again!935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaNBDZG9Sp
Soon enough, the pain subsides and the real power begins to form within. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO32uJgKicg
My wounds heal and azure lightning strikes all around scorching the area around me.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjFJWZpNYQ
I float back down, my eyes shoot open to reveal a deep light blue color change and I push back my hair. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy2AYYVBI2
Moryuu: “Bow, you’re in the presence of a God.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeak1Ntrfc
Caecius: “Wha-What are you!?”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHsvupEwLE
I blitzed past him in the form of lightning and grab the eye before he could register what happened.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5L4AXQVLMe
Moryuu: “The winner of this battle.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gU61imbl8
He hurried to fling more air blades towards me but I block them all with a lightning shield. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpUbpyHyiy
Moryuu: “Normally I’d kill a mage like you but I have a mission to complete, give up.” 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISSd08qHAs
Caecius: “I can’t….I need that eye….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH58ksZls3z
Moryuu: “She’s dead, let her rest.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvawhftSVN
Caecius: “Rest? How can she rest?! She was killed before my eyes by the scum of the earth! Even if I have to move heaven and earth, I will give her the life she deserved.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaBSK8qnvD
Moryuu: “I’ve lost loved ones too, but I would not disgrace their memory and name by dragging them back from the dead.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsw55MaMrm
Caecius: “Tch….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bUXRg2lOJ
Moryuu: “There are few things I hate more than Necromancy. That’s why I’m going to kill Shadow for not only betraying me but because he dabbles in such dark arts.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xULhuTLUT
Moryuu: “We’re done here, I don’t want to kill you and you’re no match for me. I’m leaving here with the eye, maybe you should think about what I said.”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQYicfGaoi
I turn my back on Caecius and head towards the exit of this place. Now that I have my powers back, I can move around the place a lot faster and help everyone stay alive better. Well, everyone except Gideon and Shadow. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRVpUez4aO
Caecius: “No….No….I can’t lose her again!!!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9JF3PzQhD
I turn around to see Caecius conjuring up a large mass of magical wind that would do nothing to me but would probably collapse the place. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdmRdL6oc9
Caecius: “Die!!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgui9iQWOw
He throws it at me, I know it won’t hurt me but….my killing instinct involuntary kicked in anyway.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOUTxGboA7
Moryuu: “You Fool!”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAqD4x7reA
I shoot a powerful blast of lightning that rips through his wind and then through him causing a massive hole in the wall that leads outside and collapses a couple of buildings too.935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67qSyVYgtG
In the end, Caecius collapses on the ground charred black and….probably dead. 935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqBTl78HEH
Moryuu: “….Damn it, why didn’t you give up….”935Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPJaxaVxDJ
