Dark Magus Returns

A little far out from the main battle, there were three people standing around a hundred meters away from each other, Zon and Anna were stood side by side, and everyone knew at any moment they were about to fight, the finale decider of this large painful event.

“Anna, I wish for you to stay out of this fight and just be an observer.” Zon said.

“Captain!” Anna shouted back immediately. “What do you mean by that, I came here to help you, and I won’t get in the way, you can be sure of that.”

Anna lifted her arm, she had a special bracer around her left arm. It was the item that had been created by Raze for her. Something that he felt like she needed to reward her for everything that occurred.

She was ready to use the item, and she was ready to fight against Red with Zon by her side.

“This is an order.” Zon stated. “All of this mess started because I failed the whole team as captain of the group. Red was out of line, and it is my duty, my responsibility to punish him for it.”

Zon started to walk forward away from Anna who was visibly upset by the request that had been made, but she had decided to listen to her orders as she always had done and started to move back so she could observe the fight from a farther distance.

“So just the two of us going head to head, there was always talk amongst the squad which of us was better than the other, and I guess we’ll finally be able to learn the answer.” Red claimed as he started to walk in a circular figure and Zon did the same.

Both of them seemed to be waiting for the other to make the first move.

“You were a murderer back in Tronzo, and then you joined the fight with Alter as a Deleter, to become a murderer as well.” Zon shouted. “I guess your nature never changed.”

“Not my nature.” Red said. “That was all I was taught to do!”

Red faced out his palm, as it opened up and a red beam shot straight out of it, aiming for Zon.

In response he opened up his own hand and fired out the yellow energy. It eclipsed the red beam destroying it, and part of it continued out aiming for Red.

Red had already moved as the attack had hit the ground and caused a giant explosion destroying part of the floor in the process.

The two of them started to run towards each other in the center, moving their bodies at incredibly fast speeds, and both of them were constantly firing out energy blasts at one another.

However, Zon was able to move his attacks so they attacked straight ahead toward Red’s. As his blasts were more powerful consuming the other attacks.

Seeing this, Red needed to quickly move and avoid strikes trying to attack from different angles.

Before he knew it, Zon had shortened the distance between the two. With one hand behind him he blasted energy to thrust his speed so he could move even faster, and appeared right above where Red was.

With both of his hands he delivered a powerful strike, a punch hitting Red and slamming him into the ground.

Staying in the air, Zon stayed there constantly firing off a barrage of yellow energy shots.

A large red shield of energy was made in the ground creating a dome like structure, but as each of the yellow energy blasts hit the red dome shield it started to get smaller and smaller in size until one blast had hit it too many times shattering it completely.

Zon charged forward again heading straight for the ground, but that’s when he could see a large red energy sword being held and attempted to strike at him.

Moving to the side at the last moment, Zon had narrowly dodged the strike, and right then a blast hit him in the center of his body. It pushed him away and destroyed part of his suit, but the suit was coming back together and healing nicely.

The two of them stared at each other for a moment, as the quick exchange between them had somewhat come to an end. The first of many that were to come.

“Your attacks are stronger, you’re faster than me and you recover better than me. This is all because you’re using that powerful power stone in your body right?” Red said, still calm and as casual as he always was.

“You were quite lucky to get that power stone, you had powerful allies that allowed you to even keep such a thing. Hey Anna!” Red called out.

Anna looked disturbed because Red was calling her just like they used to when they were in the squad. After everything they had been through, everything they had done and what was going on right now, how could he just casually call out her name like nothing had happened.

“Out of the two of us, who do you think is going to win?” Red asked.

Anna gritted her teeth but shouted out an answer.

“The captain of course, he was always more skilled than you, and now he’s even stronger than you as well, you said it yourself.”

“Those words, I can tell that they’re personal, and not really speaking from the system inside you.” Red claimed. “But both of you should know something right?

“Even if you have more power than me, it doesn’t mean you’re going to win this fight, because at the end of the day, the system I have in my mind compared to the rest of you, is far more superior!”

The strange red core spread out to the entirety of Red’s body, and then lifting his hand in the air, he was ready to perform his signature move.
