~With Kyoya~
"Ice-Make:Knuckle!!!!!!"

Freezing the ground under Erigor, Kyoya creates a tower of large fists that strike at the wind mage. As Erigor was sent flying back, Kyoya took this chance to attack once more.

"Ice-Make:Arrows!!!!!"

After first crafting a bow from ice, Kyoya forms multiple arrows from both of his hands and fires them at high speed towards Erigor. Seeing this, the man quickly tries to defend himself.

"This brat mocked my alias and even claims to know someone better fit for it......i'll make sure that he fears the name Erigor!!!! Wind Creation Magic:Storm Mail!!!!!!"

Erigor spins his scythe and manipulates the wind so that it's spinning around him until he is covered by an armor of wind. Soon Kyoya saw his arrows being blown away by Erigor's armor.

"You have no chance against me, ice brat. You, your comrades, everyone here will not be spared. Your fate was sealed since you met the Reape-"

"Shut the hell up, you scum. I don't need to say anything to you. I'll let my fists and my magic do all of that for me. Besides....my comrades aren't as weak as you think."

~With Wendy~

Charon stared at Wendy in shock. Her magic power seems a lot more ferocious now compared to a moment ago. Soon a smile appeared on his face as he was excited to fight against her.

"To think a Child of Sin would have so much potential. But you won't win against me. CLAP!!!!!!!!!!!"

Charon clapped his hands together as he released an explosion of flame magic. As the smoke clears, he noticed that Wendy wasn't anywhere to be seen. Soon he was sent flying into a frozen building as Wendy punched him in the face.

"Not only her magic, but her physical strength has risen too!!!!"

"Sky Dragon's Wave Wind!!!!!!"

Wendy swings her hand and subsequently generates a large and very powerful tornado. As Charon was trapped inside, he felt himself being subdued by the pressure from her wind. He could tell this girl was a formidable opponent. After seeing her strength, it was only natural that he wanted to fight his hardest!

"WALK!!!!!!!!"

As Charon walked forward, a series of explosions occured with each step as he freed himself from Wendy's tornado. Soon he leaped forward as he used an explosion to propel himself forward. Seeing this, Wendy also charged towards Charon.

When they got close to each other, Wendy and Charon punched each other in the face as they were sent flying backwards. Wendy then lunged at Charon with amazing speed as she unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks onto Charon's body.

"Her attacks have a lot more power, but in terms of experience, I still have the upper hand!!!!"

Charon grabbed Wendy by her wrist and slams her into the ground. Afterwards, he gathered massive amounts of flames in his hands.

"STAMP!!!!!!"

As Charon released the flames from his hands, Wendy charges forward as she tries her best to endure the pain. When she lunged forth, several thoughts went through her head.

"When he saved me, he fought with everything he had. Even when the kids were kidnapped, he gave it his all even though his allies told me how scared he was. Yet when he's around others and smiles....it feels forced. It's like that smile and strength was not meant to convince others but also himself."

As Wendy made it to Charon, she sweeps the man by his leg and punched the man into the ground. Afterwards, she kicked the man forward.

"He's always trying to be strong. Its like a moment of weakness is terrifying to him. That's why i want to see him one time before my time is up. I want to tell him it's okay to be weak. Its okay to be vulnerable at times. He has his squad, his friends, and myself to support him. Just like he helped me....I want to help him!!!!"

As Wendy saw Charon get back up, she realized that she was getting low on magic power. She needed to end this fight right here and now. As a large amount of wind gathers around her, she had one thought on her mind. She wanted to save the person who helped her. As Wendy was gathering as much wind as possible, her grimoire was glowing brightly as a page inside it was starting to have a spell inscribed to it. Seeing this, Charon smiled.

"I see, so this is your resolve. Come!!!!!! My defense or your resolve...LET'S SEE WHICH ONE IS LEFT STANDING!!!!!!!"

Wendy moves into a wide stance, spreading her arms wide and causing a fast wind barrier to form, which surrounds her and Charon and prevents either of them from escaping.

"Dragon Slayer Secret Art!!! Shattering Light:Sky Drill!!!!!!!"

Wendy moves her arms in a counter-clockwise direction, causing the wind wall to contract inwards around Charon, sending him flying backwards as he was crashing through several frozen buildings.

As this happened, Wendy's hair changed back to its normal blue color as she fell to the ground. However, she had no time to rest. When she was getting back up, she began to cough up a large amount of blood.

"I have to make it....I have to make it to him. Please God, if you're there....just grant me this....please...even if it's only for one second.....just let me see Kyoya again!!!!!"

Soon Wendy started to walk forward, coughing up blood with each step. The magic stone in her body is beginning to weaken. Her body felt hot, she wanted to scream, but she bared with it. Right now, she has one goal on her mind.

"Kyoya.....I promise.....i'll save you!!!!!"

~With Kyoya~
"That wind magic is protecting Erigor's body. But....it's also given me a bigger target."

Kyoya smirked as he knew exactly how to defeat Erigor. The man in question frowned when he saw the look on Kyoya's face. He mocked him and acts as if he's already won, it's infuriating.

"You piece of filth!!!!!! I am the one true Reaper!!! I am the strongest!!!! A pathetic welp like you couldn't hope to best me!!!!! Wind Magic:Emera Baram!!!!!!!!!"

As Erigor was coated in wind magic, he placed his two index and middle fingers in an X-shape in front of himself and fires a concentrated blast of wind blades at Kyoya. As the air was filled with wind magic, Erigor laughed as he was sure that he had one. But as he opened his eyes, he was shocked as his gaze fell upon Kyoya.

"Ice Magic:Zero Point Breakthrough."

Erigor couldn't believe what he saw. His entire spell was frozen solid. As this happened, Kyoya used the spell as a platform as he jumped towards Erigor's body.

"You brat...i still have my storm mail!!! Your attack won't work on m-"

"You've got that wrong. It's because you're using your storm mail that using this spell just became easier."

As Kyoya drove his hands inside of Erigor's armor of wind, he felt his arms getting slashed by Erigor's wind magic. However, as this happened, Kyoya used his Zero Point Breakthrough to freeze Erigor along with his armor made of wind. As Erigor was seen crashing to the ground, Kyoya said one thing.

"Go to hell, you false reaper."

Soon Kyoya lands back on the ground. He knew that he had to regroup with everyone. Just as he was running back into the village, he felt a strange sensation in his chest. He knew this feeling all too well.

"Finally, after playing nice for so long we can finally reveal our true natures. It's been awhile, Kyo-chan."

As Kyoya turned around, he didn't want to believe that he was here. When he turned around, his eyes became wide with shock with what he saw.

"What are you doing here....answer me....Byakuran!!!!!!"

~Meanwhile~
Konro was seen roaming the streets of Sun Village. He had to hurry to Benimaru's side. As he ran, he saw something pass by him. It was enormous but what truly shocked him was that his mana was being drained from his body.

"What the hell....is that thing?"

"Looks like Byakuran is really taking this seriously. "

When Konro turned around, he saw a woman walk towards him from the shadows. Soon she pinned him to the ground as she held a syringe in her hand.

"Well then, looks like you'll be my next subject for this dark magic item I have. It'll make your magic power increase by a lot. Let's see if it works."

"Dammit!!!! Benimaru!!!!! You have to hurry!!!! Please.....HELP PROTECT SUN VILLAGE, BENI-"

Before he could finish his sentence. Konro felt a sharp pain in his back. Sally just injected his body with the syringe. When this happened, Konro felt like his body was on fire. His heart, his lungs, even his eyes felt like they were melting.

"It burns. It burns. It burns. It burns. It burns. IT BURNS!!!!!!!!"

Konro tried to call out to Benimaru. However, the only sound that escaped his mouth was an agonizing screech as his magic was corrupting his body due to Sally. While this happened, the stone he always carried dropped onto the ground. As this happened, a portal opened underneath Sally as she was being teleported somewhere else. Before she left she picked up the stone that Konro dropped. Before she left, she thought to herself.

"We've got one magic stone from here. I'll let Byakuran handle retrieving the other one that's made its way here."

Soon footsteps were heard. A single man was seen running with everything he had. Benimaru heard someone call out to him in this village. He knew that voice belonged to Konro, but for some reason, his instincts were telling him not to go any further. When he saw Ken follow him, he gave him one order.

"Go find the magic knights!!!! If they're injured, stay with them at my home and guard them with your life!!!!!"

Ken nods his head as he turned around and tried to follow the scent of the magic knights. Benimaru was glad that excuse worked because he wasn't sure if Ken can handle what they were about to witness.

As he turns around a corner, he saw a creature of flames standing before him. As he opened his grimoire to kill the creature, he heard one thing. Just from hearing its voice once, Benimaru felt nothing but despair.

"B.....B.........Beni............"

"This has to be some sick joke. It just has to be. Is that you....Konro?"
