Chapter 44: A Cut Above The Rest
Asta: Step back I've got this
Blue: A new move?
Asta: Yeah! How did ya know?
Blue: You grow everytime a battle passes. So I expected you to have something new.
Asta: And you're right! Watch this!
Asta steps in front of us and channels his Anti Magic from his sword and into his body, transforming into his Black Asta form.
Blue: You're getting better at using this, but I know you have another thing to show, don't you?
Asta: Yeah! Black Tornado!
Asta uses a new move of his called Black Tornado where he is surrounded by his anti magic and becomes a....well a black tornado. He blitzed around the petal infested area and destroys them, annoying Kirsch.
Kirsch: What is that unsightly thing?
Now that it was clear, myself and Mimosa get ready to fight alongside Asta. Sol confronts him while Mimosa faces against her brother, who had his team's crystal in tow. That left me with the crystal, and Magna across from me.
He smirks at me, ready to face someone that could end his life in an instant. I remember Vanessa telling me that Magna had been working hard for a many days, just so he could get the chance to prove his worth to me.
Magna: Hey Blue, remember that initiation test I gave you when you first joined?
Blue: You were trying so hard to intimidate me. But even though I was a child, you could never scare me, I had experienced much worse before that
Magna: Man, I don't know what type of fucked up shit you saw in your life, but I can see that it molded you into the guy you are.
Blue: I guess you can say that, it has scarred me for life
Magna: Any chance you'll tell me your story?
Blue: Not now, and not in recent time
Magna: Ah well, maybe one day. I will be going full force here, Blue! You better not hold back on me!
Velvet: I'm sorry....but what did he say?
Blue: Are you sure about this, Magna? Because you're well aware of what I can do
Magna: Yes, you're much stronger than me but I want you to respect me, I am your senior after all!
Vanessa: Magna, that delinquent! He is so prideful of himself, I don't think Blue will actually go all out, but he is still insane!
Blue: Okay, I'll use full power
Magna: Alright!
Vanessa: Nevermind! They're both insane!
Gauche: He's going to get himself killed
Grey: What? B-Blue won't kill him right?
Finral: I'm sure he won't, Blue has gotten softer lately, he is just bluffing!
Noelle: And if he isn't?
Vanessa: Then Magna might be lucky to walk out alive
Blue: Are you ready?
Magna: Yeah! Show me what you got!
I slowly make my way towards Magna, he started to create his signature fireballs, and dashed them towards me. But I simply used my shadows as protection against the flames, and Magna started to panic at this.
Velvet: You're....not going to hit him hard, right?
Blue: We'll see
Magna started to increase the power and quantity of his fireballs. He even showed a new trick where he would make them vanish and reappear to put me off. But it didn't work as I was locked in.
He was trying so hard to hit me, and while it was recommended that he should stop and surrender.....his pride didn't let him. He didn't care about the gap between us, and that was respectable.
Soon Magna ran out of mana as I was right in front of him, he was out of breath from draining himself in his barrage, but still looked up to me with a fire in his eyes.
Magna: A-Ah damn, guess I couldn't force you to actually try. Man I'm such an idiot for even thinking that I could make you go all out
Blue: Don't think like that, that's how you get worse
Magna: Yeah you're right, but I can't help but think that I should've done better
Blue: Stand proud, Magna. You are strong.
Magna: Haha....hit me with one of your good spells already
Blue: If that's what you want
My grimoire opens up and my fist is covered in a sliver blue aura, Magna wanted something decent so I decided that Twilight Fist was acceptable.
I punch Magna once, and as expected, he was struck four more times with long outlines coming out from his back. My attack rendered Magna unconscious, but at least he was smiling knowing that I still rated him.
I set him down to the ground safely and turned my sights to the next target.....Sol.
Asta was doing alright against Sol but couldn't get near her as she was keeping him back while on top of a earth golem. He was getting close to her in the end, but I stopped him from pushing further.
Blue: Asta, protect the crystal. I still need to let loose
Asta: Okay! Have fun!
Asta retreats so that he can watch both Magna and our crystal, Sol was surprised but didn't let fear overtake her.
Velvet: Are you going to hurt her?
Blue: No, but I will go for Kirsch later on. He needs to receive something, with bad intentions
Velvet: I can't wait! Let me grab my snacks!
Blue: You don't have snacks
Velvet: Oh right....aww.
Sol: Oh? Have you come to lose already? Don't think I'm going to back down against you! Despite what the stories I've heard about you!
Blue: It will be you who will fall Sol
Sol: We will see about that! I'm winning this match and the tournament!
Her golem advances towards me and I simply use Dusk Manufacture to create shadows chains. They emerged from the ground and restrained the golem in its place, Sol almost fell off from the momentum but found her balance.
Sol: H-Hey what gives?!
Blue: I'm going to end this early. I would say I'm sorry but....we both know that's not how I do things.
Sol:.....G-Good point. But I'm not done!
With my shadows chains stopping the Golem in its tracks, Sol went to use another Earth Magic Spell to attack me but I was quicker.
Blue: Shadow Magic: Curse of Erebus
With my right hand I blasted a hole in the Golem, not only did this destroy the Golem but it caused Sol to plummet towards the ground.
Velvet: That was easy
However before she hits the ground, I had caught her with my shadows. Sol opens her eyes to see that she was safely placed on her feet due to my actions.
Sol: [Blushes] You.....didn't let me drop?
Blue: There is no point of either action, so I just chose to do what I felt like.
Sol: T-T....T-Thank you
Blue: No need to
I turn away from Sol after defeating her, and now it was......his turn. Kirsch Vermillion was dealing with his sister, but stopped when he noticed that Magna was unconscious and Sol was basically on the sidelines.
And I....was staring right at him.
Kirsch: I see that my beauty will need to carry my team once again.
Blue: By the end of this, you won't have any beauty left....not that you had any in the first place
Kirsch: [Laughs] And this is coming from the one wearing a mask?
Velvet: That's because he doesn't want to steal all the girls quickly by showing his face!
Blue: What?
Velvet: You heard me
Blue: [Sighs] Alright, that's it. I'm going to break you down now
Kirsch: I'd like to see you try, your malicious magic won't be able to deal with the beauty that my magic presents
Kirsch had a confident look on his face and immediately covered the space around me. I wasn't intimidated at all, even if Kirsch made clones of himself using his magic.
Blue: Should I play around? Or end this quickly?
Velvet: End him now!
Blue: Say no more. Shadow Magic: Dusk Manufacture
I created a couple of Shadow spikes and unleashed them, each spike took out a clone and disrupted the flow of the Cherry Blossoms. I could see that Kirsch's face had twitched in annoyance, and the pages of his grimoire began to flip.
Velvet: He's going to attack
Blue: Shadow Magic: Phantom
Kirsch had prepared a barrage of cherry blossoms to attack me with, but to most people's surprise, they phased through me.
Kirsch: What? My Cherry Blossoms are ineffective?
Charlotte: This is new, I don't think I've ever seen him do this before
Asta: Blue isn't even trying right now, he's really going to steal the spotlight but if it gets us the win, I don't mind. I've done my part already!
Zora: Damn, is there anything that this kid can't do?
Gauche: Seems like there isn't
Julius: I always wondered how he discovered such a great defensive spell like that. It can be used for great counter attacks
Blue: Is that all? Cherry blossoms?
Kirsch: It's better looking than your hideous shadows
Blue: I disagree, allow me to explain using Exhibit A
I use Umbra Manipulation to wrap shadows onto Kirsch's ankles, wrists and neck. I pull him down to the ground and used Dusk Manufacture to create small shadow spikes on the ground.
Kirsch lands on it hard, and I yank him in the air, I pull him back down towards me and create a shadow hammer that I wack Kirsch with. He lands hard on the ground but would experience more pain when I slam a shadow wreaking ball on him.
I land on the ground and besides Kirsch who was beaten badly from my attacks, I also dragged his crystal over....but I didn't plan to destroy it yet.
Kirsch gets up, and I wasn't done yet. I use Twilight Fist but multiple times as Kirsch's face gets annihilated by a total of 50 punches.
He falls to the ground, defeated, and with all sorts of injuries on his face. He had cuts, bruises, blood and even purple patches in his face....I think one of his eyes was swollen as well.
Blue: Case closed.
Mimosa: That was........satisfying
Kirsch: Y-You....may have ruined my face, but you're still known for hiding behind a mask!
Blue: You want to see my face? Fine.
I take off my mask and hold it while looking down at Kirsch, he had a face of disgust and backed up a bit.
Kirsch: I can see why you don't show your face, you are hideous and a danger to beauty all around!
Blue: You say that about me, but have you considered what others think about your appearance, and who you are as a person?
Kirsch: I don't need to think, I already know that people are jealous of my looks. I'm a noble!
Blue: Jealous? Noble? Your life literally is as valuable as a summer ant. I'm just going to stomp you, you're going to keep coming back. I'm going to seal up all my cracks, you're going to keep coming back, why? Because you're a disease to this world, you worthless waste of space
Kirsch: W-What?
Blue: You're going to stay under my shadow until you die. You serve no purpose in life, your purpose in life is to be second fiddle to everyone. Your purpose in life is to be in that narcistic idiot with no relevancy. Your life is nothing, you serve ZERO purpose. You should kill yourself, NOW!
Kirsch:
Everyone:
Blue: And give somebody else a piece of that oxygen and ozone layer that's covered up so we can breathe inside this blue trapped bubble. Beause what are you here for? To be a creep? Kill yourself! I mean that with a hundred percent with a thousand percent.
(Had to alter some.....words)
Velvet: Oh I think in in love~
Kirsch didn't know what to say and just curled up on the floor with emotional damage. He had been beaten physically, mentally and spiritually, and right now he was close to crying himself to sleep.
I look over at the crystal and constrict it with shadows before applying pressure and crushing it into pieces, securing the win for Team B.
Noelle: H-He did it....
Zora: I'm not surprised he got the job done
Leo: Wow! He took out each member by himself!
Luck: Individually as well! I hope I can fight him sometime in the tournament!
Vanessa: That's our Blue!
Nebra: W-What was with those words?
Vanessa: I-I don't know, that was a new side to him that none of us have seen before.
Luck: I like it!
Asta: T-That was too extreme!
Mimosa: Should I feel bad for my Brother? No, I don't think so
Charlotte: A....barbaric and soul puncturing speech, but I'm sure it was a one off.....
Sol: U-Umm, did you really have to do that to him?
Blue: Yes, he deserved to hear every word
Sol: ._.
Blue: And no, I won't apologise
Velvet: That's my bestie!
Sol: G-Good to know
Blue: Now explain to me what's wrong, you seem troubled
Sol: M-Me? I didn't do well, I was meant to impress Charlotte! Now she'll think I'm not worthy to be her right hand woman!
Blue: Why wouldn't she? I think you did what you can
Sol: You think so?
Blue: Of course. Why would I lie? I say how it is
(Blue is good boi)
Sol: Thanks.....
Blue: Alright, I'm going to meet up with my team now, goodbye, Sol
Sol: Bye....Blue....good luck for the rest of the tournament
Blue: I won't need luck, this is all just a warm up to me
