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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6xSJhHGPI
This has gotten out of hand, I think it’s more important to get my powers back instead of gaining trust from either side.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCDhsIbxPY
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDu4TizmzU
???: “Watch out!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbftIJKUMTy
Moryuu: “What the-”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Iv0CkJeqL
I instinctively moved out of the way of the falling object which seems to be who I’ve been waiting for.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw7RFRByoX
Moryuu: “About time you showed up.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kkckvqu8D
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXYVpJ2SaX
???: “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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6usaVUIB0
Moryuu: “….Yeah.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbktqBFO46s
???: “Well, don’t worry I’m sure her next self will be just as interesting.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxtIZUK2CX
Moryuu: “Maybe, anyway now that you’re here Talon, what’s the plan?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z8r7ZETiV
Talon: “Well, it seems that those guys forgot about the dolls I gave them, oh, here’s a refill on those poison vials.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA1HP6hh40
Moryuu: “Thanks.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkS2DAdPgK7
Talon: “Anyway, I think you had the right idea regarding your powers. Things are getting dicey, try not to kill any more people.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoMsUptfto
Moryuu: “Alright, I’ll try. What about you?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqfvhyhcC5
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9io3PT1CHh
Moryuu: “Right, after that maybe you can help the rest of those alive.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWORrVFiiKW
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJi9elf7br
Moryuu: “Let’s hurry, we don’t have much time.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW1TLZjddm
Talon: “Never time for a joke to lighten the mood I guess.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDa4Qe59VR
Talon raises his hands and a yellow portal appears beside me.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK9NEuFZpu
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYMbXFSWbV
I guess my powers are in the pillar Caecius was heading towards... terrific. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9i1hdkFRf
Moryuu: “You too, don’t mess with the Umbra Lord Gideon.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmsHrodB3e
Talon: “You find him interesting?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAWGf8RPV2
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebUwfSFFUf
Talon grabs his chest in a dramatic manner resembling the melodrama I attempted in my alter ego. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgUCBPJvd3
Talon: “You wound me good man, don’t worry If it’s one thing I’m good at it’s teleporting away.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKXijusJsm
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3F1J9zivrM
I steel myself for the journey and take the right path, listening closely to see if Caecius is near.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWVtwAh3sm
A wind mage is too much trouble for me now, especially since he can suffocate me which is pretty high level. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi8bVGRRDd
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHFrdU8XIV
Moryuu: “I guess you want me to follow you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9CMekehY1
I follow close behind the strange lantern until we find ourselves to what I imagine is the center of the pillar. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4GcITacfA
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q5DF6otuP
*Footsteps*929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyQ27PwY3m
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqrSR41epg
Caecius: “I feel powerful energy here, perhaps it’s really here. Surely it must be fate if I’ve found it so quick.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXypKfx9omv
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaV0abdeyr
I’ll find a way to get the jump on him, maybe there’s a way to scale the walls. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cUfzJDCAJ
Caecius: “Mmmm?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBE8LelI5v
I guess that makes too much noise, now what?929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdR08MFUHw
Caecius: “I know someone is there, come out or I’m coming to you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO9GdT9HiK
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5snh2rSFj6
Caecius: “So it’s you, the mysterious man. What do you want, come to fight?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJGme0XauB
Moryuu: “Not really, I’ve come looking for something.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKodVEGhQ7a
Caecius: “Oh, and what would that be.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8Ap9DsvSC
Moryuu: “Something that belongs to me.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT58j5EyUcE
Caecius: “Depending on what that thing is, I might have to kill you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtikgkCE9td
Moryuu: “I expected as much.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjtUYZJt2M
This is going smoother than I thought. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS7XGoULR3
Moryuu: “!!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCfZ4HCQiC
Is what I thought until he shot a blade of air near my face, leaving a cut. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILGIM4Cb0N
Caecius: “There’s something else I need to know from you, who are you, and what’s your purpose?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMR9zkt0gi
Moryuu: “Is that all, do you want fries with that?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUASXOyADN
Caecius: “*Glare*”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwgr1M0qcY
Moryuu: “I have no problem telling you the truth about this place, I wonder though if you’ll believe me.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKAoZaupE8
Caecius: “No harm in trying.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD14QW68cH
Moryuu: “Fine, the first part of the info dump is the fact that this is not the afterlife.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezceuVYTk1
Caecius: “!!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60i7WoBoUm
Caecius: “Explain.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuZsLdiYGI
Moryuu: “I don’t know if your world has something similar but what we’re standing on is actually a dead eldritch god.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7r59ckLHN
Caecius: “But….why and how are there dead people here?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSdeMZAUpB
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI2TS9up9h
Caecius: “….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEXNMcRjMw
Moryuu: “Don’t believe me huh?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi3VOAWA2x
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjezrfB9vVY
Moryuu: “Yep, well, everyone except the Umbras for some reason.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oe7473MBe
Caecius: “Impossible, this is too outrageous to believe!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONy136uCNr
Moryuu: “Have you ever wondered why shifts happen?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL62PPCGutD
Caecius: “….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMyx7bBm9a
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGusqkTNKIG
Caecius: “Let’s say I believe you, why are you here instead of babysitting everyone else?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7apqeP1Fjj
Moryuu: “Because there’s an item of great power that can help me do my job.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWdv81e3mj
Caecius: “….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpljGmI7mIK
Caecius: “Sorry, I can’t risk believing you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2JDdkxwD9
He swipes his hands and shots a wide blade of air towards me and I narrowly dodge out of the way.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr72zZZC1Ng
Moryuu: “I knew it, never trust a mage, especially one hellbent on bringing back the dead.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjoGBFGik9
Caecius: “It can be done!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTswcHGpQP
Moryuu: “Maybe, but the dead should rest.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVAMe04mD0
Caecius: “Silence!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq8AetuPQi
Caecius continually blasts out wave after wave of air blades but I dodge them all. Still, it’s hard to maneuver in this-929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDa766jWSU
Moryuu: “!!!!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8syl3DtW7
I'm….suffocating!929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNDTjOkNMc
Caecius: “Enough of this game, I’ll kill you and get what I've come for.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLxnAlknA7
I throw 3 daggers at him and he blocks it with air but it did break his spell. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5LdaolluQ
Moryuu: “*Cough* *Cough*”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKzUQcn8ak
Moryuu: “I guess you need concentration for that huh?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgMUgqBtaG
Caecius: “I don’t need it to kill you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1m1Up8pDe
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE1HAnbFQr
Caecius: “It’s useless!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4b3fL4IDX
Moryuu: “Is it?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEk87eCTXt
I close my eyes, breathe, and take out my tonfas. I jump down and slam into the ground causing a small crater. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLLx5VZ0GK
Caecius: “You’re going to fight me with melee weapons, fool.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzL5Vs0sDd
Caecius shots a dozen or so air blades at me but I stay still….and listen.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOHFdFi7hs
The slight movements in the air, the whirling sound of blades, and the split second before impact.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kQfVREjbs
My instincts flair up to prepare for the assault.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp212N9w3L1
…929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcWe5APZkL

*Slash*929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJB24SIXFs
*Slash*929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ypobj9hg9
Caecius: “Wha, how!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJo7hNdEbm
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZQzBPK2pi
Moryuu: “What’s wrong, I guess you’re not the best wind user out there.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4wHXSkIHJ
Caecius: “You!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAAT3ch6uu
I keep my eyes closed and anticipated the assault of air blades.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXrV7GTpqd
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWQYEbsSX4
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVM6Apsgku
Caecius: “GAH!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5NH0Fd6pi
He’s sent flying into the wall, still-929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjr4MHdqKH
Moryuu: “Tch.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALdC0OiD1X
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k9RnQAcev
Caecius: “*Cough* *Cough*”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfjBsTXwHp
Caecius: “No more playing around, I’m going to…oh my god.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC4Iis53Bt
Moryuu: “What?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXTyE257oL
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxWI1RmcOJ
Caecius: “The Eye….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbivcYIrfq
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3PKSln1D4
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZww8FvQKxY
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDa1VWjUqM
Caecius: “At last, I’m closer to my goal. Wait for me….Nieth.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBpmptnc6G
Caecius: “It’s over Moryuu, now that I’m this close to my goal there’s no way I’m losing to you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWX5QZgn2h
Moryuu: “Maybe before, but not now.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgptORKzgZ
Caecius: “What’s that, a potion of some sort? That’s not going to help you here.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa47XXPwiF
Moryuu: “Well, allow me to surprise you.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L5wbdIdOz
[ Music Plays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojL5Y5HvOlE ]929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡledphFLoJd
I down the entire flask and instantly, I can feel the power of lightning coursing through me again.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDB7yUh4Go
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95StkWS84M
I’ve survived this before, I-I’ll....survive ...again!929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFriW0us1em
Soon enough, the pain subsides and the real power begins to form within. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCyD7PRzwj
My wounds heal and azure lightning strikes all around scorching the area around me.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDWDqkSjlK
I float back down, my eyes shoot open to reveal a deep light blue color change and I push back my hair. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb501guDaDX
Moryuu: “Bow, you’re in the presence of a God.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJysjcUt8b
Caecius: “Wha-What are you!?”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo3je2v3W3
I blitzed past him in the form of lightning and grab the eye before he could register what happened.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe3Q1smVEn
Moryuu: “The winner of this battle.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWraz1RbKUc
He hurried to fling more air blades towards me but I block them all with a lightning shield. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeNp4ZL6f7
Moryuu: “Normally I’d kill a mage like you but I have a mission to complete, give up.” 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88WAUxxHKQ
Caecius: “I can’t….I need that eye….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdMZd9ZFE8
Moryuu: “She’s dead, let her rest.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Kao9xCQWB
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJIz85cJhf
Moryuu: “I’ve lost loved ones too, but I would not disgrace their memory and name by dragging them back from the dead.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDoGMDOFeT
Caecius: “Tch….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrk0Upka4V
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyMLA7GFQb
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.”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MXafHmnXk
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSoVEwb5xh
Caecius: “No….No….I can’t lose her again!!!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3orB7wdg1O
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. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWFC7l5lWP
Caecius: “Die!!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjgwIcZWsj
He throws it at me, I know it won’t hurt me but….my killing instinct involuntary kicked in anyway.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsBrQcLELf
Moryuu: “You Fool!”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQGJzI6gPX
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.929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiZiIcr7Ul
In the end, Caecius collapses on the ground charred black and….probably dead. 929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3lQQYfq5Z
Moryuu: “….Damn it, why didn’t you give up….”929Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUq3z16RPg7
