Forbidden Chapter 70

Forbidden Chapter Seventy

Unexpected Resolution

 Ozriel succeeded in forcing a battle between himself and James to not only obtain the usage of Lisa for his ritual to escape Pruflas's Dimension, but also to kill James and all the heroes trapped in his Rings Of Judgment. Okubi along with his mother, Ophelia, and Eligos were forced to stand on the sidelines and watch as James and Ozriel prepared to fight. James knew well the high stakes of his battle against Ozriel; should he lose to the sadistic angel not only would he die, but so would Angelina, Apollyn, Brutality, Futanari, and Tobirama. Not to mention Ozriel being able to switch places with Lisa in Pruflas's Dimension. James surrounded his body in a fiery aura then charged Ozriel head-on


James: HEAT SEEKER!


 A blazing James holds out his right hand, prepares a devastating fiery punch. Ozriel unfazed by the incoming attack. Holds out his left palm, preparing an attack of his own


Ozriel: DIVINE PUSH!


 Ozriel creates a big burst of wind from his palms, blows James away before being struck. James spiraling in the air before heading towards the ground, manages to land on his feet despite taking such a powerful blow. Okubi along with his mother and Eligos are relieved to see James holding his own against Ozriel so far


James: Nice trick bitch! Sadly it's going to take more than that to take me down

Ozriel: I'm just toying with you demon! Once I become bored of you. I will deliver your final judgment. Now let's see how well you handle my next attack


 Ozriel summons a golden bow into his left hand, aims his weapon at James. Magically a bunch of holy arrows appears in between Ozriel's bow. Ozriel then performs his HOLY ARROW RAID attack. Firing off multiple holy energy arrows towards James. Watching as the many arrow moving towards him. James takes a quick look at Okubi and the others before making his move. First James infuses his right hand with a fiery aura, hits the ground beneath him. Afterwards James covers his body in flames once again. However unlike James's Heat Seeker where he covered his body in yellowish orange flames. The color of the flames surrounding James were lava red. James running towards Ozriel as the arrow come after him. Manages to dodge each and everyone of Ozriel's holy arrows. James is nearly in attacking range of Ozriel. Disappointed that none of his arrow managed to hit James. Ozriel wasn't worried about being hit by James. Right as James was about to crash into him, Ozriel uses his Angelic Shift to teleport out of harm's way. Causing James to crash wildly on the ground. While Okubi and Eligos watch in concern. Ophelia notices Lisa who was placed under a trance by Ozriel. Starting to show signs of consciousness. Ozriel teleports himself where James had landed, body suddenly becomes engulf in fire. Surprising not only himself but Okubi, Ophelia, and Eligos as well. James while still on the ground turns his over to the burning Ozriel, with a sadistic smirk on his face. Okubi confused by how Ozriel just started burning. Asks James what had happened


Okubi: James? Not that I'm complaining but how did Ozriel suddenly become engulf in flames?

James: Well before I started charging at Ozriel. I used a technique I call Hot Spot. I place a small portion of my fiery energy into the ground beneath me. And if my opponent lands on the spot I place my fiery energy in. They will immediately become set on fire. I didn't even think that cocky angel would land on the spot. Talk about getting lucky

Eligos: I never imagine you being so resourceful Mr. Del Soto. I guess I underestimated the Right Hand Man of Mayland's current ruler. Now please go finish that arrogant angel off


 Now off of the ground, James covers both his hands in flames. Walking over to the still burning Ozriel, James prepares to finish him off. Okubi along with Ophelia and Eligos watching James walking towards Ozriel. Senses that something isn't quite right with Ozriel despite currently being burnt alive. James only seconds away from him, Ozriel makes his move. Using his holy powers, Ozriel instantly puts out the flames burning him. Along with healing his entire body from the burns. James along with Ophelia and Eligos surprised by Ozriel's healing. Okubi knowing that Ozriel had something planned. Thought to himself if only he could had fought the angel instead. The fight would had long ended. Now filled with an unimaginable anger. Ozriel is ready to make James suffer


Ozriel: HOW DARE YOU DEMON! If I knew you were capable of such trickery. I would had killed you sooner. Now prepare yourself for divine judgment! KARMA SHOT!


 Ozriel lifts up his right hand, holds his middle and index finger like a gun. Shoots a beam of light through James's shoulder blade. Causing James to collapse to the ground, holding his shoulder in agonizing pains as blood starts running down. Okubi, Ophelia, and Eligos watches as James is at Ozriel's mercy. A surge of anger hits Okubi, knowing he cannot do anything to prevent Ozriel from harming James. Suddenly feels a terrifying surge of pain in his head. Forcing him to drop to the ground. Seeing his Master laying on the ground, writhing in pain. Eligos starts to panic


Eligos: MASTER OKUBI! What is going on? What's causing you such pain?

Ophelia: It's his curse from the Dark Dream Trial! Seeing James in danger must had trigger something in him. This is all your fault Eliogs! Now step aside so I can try to help my son

James: Okubi?

Ozriel: You're worried about the wrong demon James. Now it's time I finish you off before you can regenerate from your injury

James: Even if you managed to kill me motherfucker. Along with the others trapped in your rings. Just know that Okubi won't fucking allow you to take Lisa

Ozriel: I know that half demon won't keep his word. Which is why once I'm finishing killing you and your friends trapped in my rings. I plan on teleporting Lisa and myself away from here. Allowing me to perform my ritual before Okubi and his mother can stop me. Now any final words before you die?

James: Suck my dick!

Ozriel: I absolutely loathe you demons. Killing you and your friends is going to be an absolute pleasure


 Ozriel summons a long sword covered in golden colored flames, prepares to decapitate the injured James. However before Ozriel could even swing his sword towards James's neck. Lisa who had broke out of her trance, flies over to Ozriel and punches him in the face. Sending him crashing down to the ground. Lisa then turns around and see James bleeding from his shoulder blades. Bends down to help her injured comrades


Lisa: James what the fuck happened to your shoulder? Did that asshole I just punched did this to you?

James: No Lisa it was the tooth fairy

Lisa: Don't get fucking smart with me jackass! No move you fucking hand from your shoulder so I can heal you

James: I swear it's absolutely comical that a fouled mouthed bitch like you is an angel. Now hurry up and heal me before that bastard gets up


 Lisa uses her holy powers to heal James's shoulder blade, Ozriel rises up from off the ground. Carrying his sword in hand and filled with rage. Ozriel stares at both James and Lisa with bad intentions


Ozriel: I took too long to kill that damn demon. It allowed you the opportunity to break free from my trance but no matter. Once I eliminate each and everyone here in this forest. I will recapture you and escape from this dimension

Lisa: Who the fuck are you and what's your problem?

Ozriel: I'm like you an angel but unlike you. I don't deserve to suffer in this dimension. Which is why I'm to make you switch places with me

Lisa: Choke on a dick assface

Ozriel: I can't believe Lord Asira allows such a trashy angel like you to exist in his Kingdom. It's just further proof what a pitiful God Asira has become

James: Oh by the way I been meaning to ask this question. Why did the God Asira name the planet he created after himself? I mean isn't it kinda confusing? Why not call it Earth or something else besides his name?

Lisa: James please shut the hell up

Ozriel: Why don't you both shut up! Now James get ready to die and don't worry about me killing you Lisa. I need you alive in order to perform my ritual. Course that doesn't mean you can't afford a few injuries to that body of yours


 Ozriel raises his sword in the air as he ready to strike James and Lisa. However before Ozriel could harm either of them. Ozriel feels a agonizing sensation piercing through his back to his stomach. Standing behind him was an enraged Okubi having stabbed his sword Neurotic Pegasus into the angel. Ozriel shocked by Okubi managed to sneak up on him starts to speak


Ozriel: H--How? How did you manage to hide your demonic presence from me?

Okubi: Curse power allows me to do a lot. Plus it was easy since you were distracted by James and Lisa. Which works for me since it not only prevents you from harming them. In your current state you can't activate you Rings Of Judgment to kill my other friends

Ozriel: Dammit! I knew the numbers game would eventually beat me. I was a fool to think I truly had a chance

Okubi: A fool indeed. Now get ready to die Ozriel


 Hearing Okubi say Ozriel's name immediately made Lisa remember, a mission that her Lord had given her many years ago. Lisa rose up from the ground and ordered Okubi not to kill Ozriel. Confused by Lisa's demand Okubi keeps his sword inside of Ozriel. Okubi turns his attention over to Lisa and starts questioning her


Okubi: Lisa what the hell do you mean "don't kill him"? Do you have any idea what this cur has put of through? I have no intention of sparing this degenerate's life

Lisa: Okubi please just listen to me. I know Ozriel has caused us a lot of trouble. However Asira had tasked me many years ago. Telling me the day I meet an angel name Ozriel. To make sure he is finally liberated from his prison

Okubi: So Asira foreseen your encounter with Ozriel?

Lisa: He's a God after all and Asira is known for his foresight. Please Okubi I know you're pissed but Asira had ordered me to make sure Ozriel returns alive. What happens to him after I liberate him is not my problem. However in order for me to perform my task. I cannot allow you to kill Ozriel. Which means you need to pull your sword from out of him

Okubi: ... FINE! However I'm going to keep real close to him. In case he attempts to do anything foolish. I also want him to release our friends in his Rings Of Judgment

Lisa: Trust me once I do what I need to do to Ozriel. Those rings around Angie, Lynn, Dela, Futanari, and your sensei won't pose any threat. Now please remove your sword out of Ozriel's body


 Okubi does as Lisa requested and removes his sword from out of Ozriel. After Ozriel heals himself once again. The angel stands before Lisa and prepares himself for whatever Lisa has planned for him


Lisa: It took me a minute but upon hearing your name. I remembered everything Asira had told me about you. Self confidence can be a very dangerous thing. Like losing a fight to a powerful demon and being forced to live in his dimension. Fortunately for you all that ends now

Ozriel: Are you going to kill me?

Lisa: The fuck? If I asked Okubi not to kill you. What makes you fucking think I plan on doing the same? However what I'm about to do to you will be a form of death. Now shut up and let me do my thing


 Lisa places her right hand on Ozriel's pec and starts to glow. James and Okubi watch as Lisa begins draining the holy energy out from Ozriel's body, placing the energy inside of her. While Ozriel feels no type of pain, he feels himself becoming less angelic by the second. Scared by what's happening to him, Ozriel attempts to move away from Lisa, but finds himself unable to move. Five minutes later Lisa removes her hand off of Ozriel's pec. James and Okubi unsure of what they have just witness. Asks Lisa what she had done to Ozriel


James: Lisa? What exactly did you do to Ozriel?

Okubi: Something seems very off about him. Almost as if you strip the angel from out of him

Lisa: That's exactly what I did boys. In order to free Ozriel from Pruflas's Dimension required one of two things. Either for him to switch places with another angel or for him to become a human. Since I sure as fuck wasn't going to switch places with him. I needed to remove the holy powers from out of him. Turning him back into a human. Which was requested by Lord Asira

Okubi: So you're telling me that Asira wanted you to save Ozriel by turning him into a human?

Lisa: Yes since Ozriel has longed lost Asira's favor. He would have no place in Heaven. At the same time Lord Asira felt bad about the centuries Ozriel was forced to live inside of Pruflas's Dimension. Thankfully he can finally leave this place. Since Pruflas's curse only affected him when he was an angel. Now as a human the curse has been neutralized

Ozriel: So I can finally leave this place but I'm no longer an angel. I must live my life as a mortal

James: Well being a mortal is better than being dead motherfucker! We should still kill you for trying to kill us earlier but fortunately for you. We're not going to kill you in your current state

Okubi: Agreed! Killing you would be pointless since you're no longer an angel. Now allow me to open one of my portals for you back to Neo Aigosthena. Now that you been rid of your curse. There is no reason for you to remain in this dimension

Ozriel: How will I make a life from myself as a mortal? I have no money, no home, or any powers? I'm completely useless in my current state

Lisa: Sounds a whole lot like "Not my problem". All I had to do was turn you from an angel into a human. Now that my job is done. Whatever happens to you next is none of my concern

Okubi: There is a place in Jordy Blue called Falleria. Search for a man name Ivan Meeks and tell him Okubi sent you. That old man owes me a favor. Also here is five hundred dollars for yourself. I can't believe I'm being so charitable to a man. Who tried to kill my friends not too long ago. Being around a bunch of do gooders has really soften me. Now once I open my portal for you. Get inside and start a new life. If I ever catch you doing something evil. I will bring upon you the most agonizing death you can ever imagine. Do I make myself clear?


 Ozriel nods his head at Okubi showing that he understood. Okubi then opens a portal for Ozriel and watches as he enter. Once Ozriel is inside of the portal. Okubi closes the portal behind him. Seconds after Ozriel had left Pruflas's Dimension. Eligos and Ophelia along with Angelina, Apollyn, Brutality, Futanari, and Tobirama all come running towards Okubi, James, and Lisa. After everyone finishes conversing about the battle with the former angel Ozriel. Okubi and his friends decides to rest up a bit, before making their way back to Pruflas's Fortress. Now that their weren't anymore distraction to stand in their way. Okubi and his friends can finally resume their purpose for coming to Pruflas's Dimension. Which is to kill Pruflas and his servants


Okubi: Now that we all rested up. It's time we start heading back to Pruflas's Fortress. Hopefully we won't encounter any problems on the way there

Futanari: I can't wait to see Yamakagashi. I'm going to kick his ass and then once you guys are finish with Pruflas and his demons. I'm going to bring that man back to Japan so that he answer for his crimes

James: I just can't wait to avenge my wife and my sister in law by killing that bastard Ulric. Along with the way The Order treated my daughter prior to selling her to Othello. I can't wait to make that son-of-a-bitch pay!

Angelina: The faster we defeat Pruflas and his servants. The quicker we can get back to Xiaoyu and Nara. Then we can go and help Hellin, Anna, and Team Rose if they haven't already defeated Iron Zabel

Brutality: I just hope our friends live long enough for us to be able to help them

Tobirama: I'm fairly confident the others will be fine until we return

Okubi: Okay now that everything is settle. Let's get a---

Ophelia: Okubi just wait a minute!


 Okubi cut off mid sentence by his mother. He along with his teammates turns to his mother. In order to find out what Ophelia needs to tell them


Ophelia: Okubi before you go and confront Pruflas. There is something very important I need to tell you. As you already know I been keeping secrets from you. Not because I don't love you but because I was ashamed of my actions. However I feel if I don't tell you and your friends this now. It will impact your battle against Pruflas. So can you all just give me a few minutes to explain. I promise I won't take too long

Eligos: Take all the time you need Lady Ophelia

Okubi: Eligos quite! Mother please proceed



 Ophelia holds her head down for a few seconds. Giving herself enough time to compose herself. Raising her head towards Okubi and his friends. Ophelia begins telling them the truth about Pruflas and her relationship with him


TO BE CONTINUED!

In order to address the massacre that had taken place the night before at Neo Aigosthena's yearly event, the Elestial Market. The King had also meet with Neo Aigosthena's Mayor and senators. Hearing their anguish about the tragic event and that demons were responsible for the massacre. Knowing that many do not like King Onyxe due to him being a demon himself. Learning that the massacre was caused by demons didn't help matters. Fortunately unknown to Neo Aigosthena's Mayor and Senators. Had it not been for Okubi and his friends attending the Elestial Festival. The situation would had been much worst. Course the reason the massacre had happened in the first place, was because Okubi and his friends were present at the Elestial Market. All of them targeted by a demon assassination group called The Order and by Pruflas's servants. While Okubi and his friends succeed in taking down The Order assassins and fighting off Pruflas's servants. Many innocent sages and bystanders were killed because of it.

Knowing that they are currently in the process of taking down Pruflas and his gang and Iron Zabel. 

 Having also sent Yura along with Oriana with her summoning Ricky and Hisako to Neo Aigosthena. In order to aid Hellin and her team against Iron Zabel. Onyxe couldn't help but wonder would they be enough to take down the nefarious cult leader? Onyxe unable to allow himself to fall asleep due to having so much on his mind. Decided that he would also travel back to Neo Aigosthena. In order to find and help Hellin and her team against Iron Zabel. However all the people Onyxe had trusted to watch over his Kingdom during his absence weren't present. Yet that would not stop him from going to help Hellin and the others.

Onyxe had taken a quick shower and put on his special espionage suit. Before writing a quick letter to his father and used his telepathic powers to send a mental message to his father.

Forbidden Side Story: Onetha Blindheart

Forbidden Side Story: Onetha Blindheart

A Fortunate Tragedy


 Onetha Blindheart, a veteran Treasure Hunter from Raspberry City. Onetha who usually travels the globe. In search of rare treasure and artifacts for her various clients. Onetha had decided to take a break from work. In order to do some personal adventuring. After reading several old books in her home. Onetha decided she was going to travel to the Moshulu Island. In order to explore a cave called The Nebula Shrine. After having packed her bags and spoken to her parents in Jordy Blue. Onetha left home and began her five day journey.


After nearly five days of traveling Onetha had arrived to Aceland. The state that was known for it's many ferrymen. Once Onetha found an available ferryman and paid him. Onetha order the ferryman to take her to Moshulu Island. The Ferryman while concerned about Onetha's desired destination. Knew from the look in her eye. The woman was prepared for whatever awaited her on the island. Began paddling Onetha to Moshulu Island. While feeling nervous and excited on the inside. Onetha managed to keep her cool demeanor. Drawing closer to her destination, Onetha looked forward to whatever awaited her on the island. Once the boat reached the shore of Moshulu Island. Onetha thanked the ferryman before exiting his boat. The ferryman bid Onetha farewell before heading back to Aceland. A few minutes after watching the ferryman ride off in the sea. Onetha began her adventure on the island.


Walking aimlessly on the island. Onetha spotted a small mountain behind many trees. Interested by what she may find around the mountains. Onetha decided to venture into the forest. Traveling inside of the forest, Onetha encounter several minor threats. Ranging from Ninja Spider Monkeys, Rock Fairies, Crunching Flowers, Three Turquoise Harpies, and a Hell Pig. Using the magical art of her Soul Force. Onetha mercilessly defeated each of her foes. Shortly after Onetha had defeated and killed the Hell Pig. Onetha felt a powerful presence coming from the mountain. Seeing that she wasn't too far from the mountain. Onetha stepped over the dead Hell Pig and hurried towards the mountain. Now standing in front of the mountain. Onetha spots a path leading to the top of the mountain. The powerful presence Onetha felt from before grows even stronger


Continuing walking up the path, Onetha couldn't help but feel both excited and afraid. Not knowing the powerful presence she felt could be something good or bad. Despite potentially putting herself in a bad situation. Onetha's curious nature wouldn't deter her from finding out. Having only walked up half of the mountain. Onetha spots a cave in the middle of the mountain. It's also seems to be the source of the powerful presence she's been feeling. Onetha immediately summons two Solar Orbs at her side. In case something within the cave attempts to harm her. Now with her Solar Orbs at play. Onetha heads in the direction of the cave. Once Onetha stepped inside of the cave. Not only did the inside remind her of outer space. Inside of the cave were several corpses. While the sight of the corpses did startle her. Onetha sensed no danger within the cave. Along with noticing the corpses were centuries old. Onetha felt sure she had nothing to fear but kept her orbs active.


Certain that she wasn't in any danger. Onetha could now focus on finding the source of the powerful presence she felt. Exploring deeper into the cave. Onetha spotted a multi color glow on the left side of the cave. Immediately moving towards the light. Onetha had finally found the source of the powerful presence. Located inside of room full of unique color rocks and corpses. In the middle of the room. There was a glowing sphere placed on top of a cylinder shaped rock. Instantly Onetha felt compelled to touch the glowing sphere. While Onetha worried what touching the sphere might do to her. Since she didn't wish to share the fate of those before her. However Onetha knew there was no turning back. Placing both her hands around the sphere. Onetha was hit with a soul shattering vision of various events from the past and future. Still holding onto the sphere, Onetha feels her body starting to burn up. Fortunately before her skin starts to melt away. Onetha's Soul Force magic creates a protective force around her body. Preventing her from suffering the fate of those before her


Once the barrage of visions had ended. The sphere ceases to glow and becomes a dull gray color. Onetha releases the sphere and faints from exhaustion. Hours later Onetha finds herself naked in her bed. Unsure how she miraculously appeared back home. Onetha then saw a very tall man in a black cloak standing by her bedroom door. While having never seen this man before. Onetha knew for certain that he was a demon. Onetha also noticed in the demon's right hand. The very sphere that had knocked her out hours ago. Considering the demon had plenty of opportunities to harm her. Onetha knew the demon meant her no harmed but worried nonetheless. Sensing that Onetha was cautious of his presence. The demon began to speak


Grim Reaper: Who I am or how I found you is not important. All you need to know is that you are a survivor. What you experience inside of that cave. Has caused the death of many before you woman. If it weren't for your unique magic. The same thing would had happened to you. The things that you witnessed through this sphere in my hand. Isn't something the mortal mind is suppose to see. Which is why one dies after seeing the visions. However none before you possessed the ability to counter the spheres's curse. You are the very first to witness events from the past so intimately. Along with having foreseen many possible futures

Onetha: Possible future? So those terrible things I seen may not come to be?

Grim Reaper: Possible future that can be prevented. Depending on the events that take place before it. It is possible those horrible things you saw will never come to be. Course in order to stop those bad things from happening. One must first eliminate the cause of it. Otherwise a gloom future awaits the citizens of Asira. Along with the demons of The Underworld and possibly the Heavens. However the decision to prevent those things are up to you. Yet that doesn't mean you alone can prevent these events from happening

Onetha: So are you saying I shouldn't do anything?

Grim Reaper: That choice is up to you Ms. Blindheart. Just be aware that every action has a consequence. Anyways before I take my leave. I shall leave the Doom Sphere with you

Onetha: I want nothing to do with that monstrosity

Grim Reaper: Typical mortal. The Doom Sphere is no longer a threat to you or anyone else. Now that you had survived it's curse. The sphere is no longer dangerous. Nor is it of use to anyone. The demon who created the sphere. Simply wanted to see if there was an individual with enough power. Capable of surviving the dark truth within the sphere. Since that task has finally been done. The Doom Sphere has lost it's worth. Also just to make this clear. The only reason you're naked is because your dress had gotten dirty earlier. I didn't violate you in any way. Course I was surprise you weren't wearing any underwear when I found you

Onetha: I enjoy the feeling the air around my vagina. Anyways I do appreciate the clarification. Not that I thought you did anything to me. Besides Okubi, I never meet a demon this kind

Grim Reaper: I'm far from kind woman. I just have no reason to harm you. I'm just glad a mortal was foolish enough to touch the Doom Sphere. Along with being fortunate enough to survive. Now if there's isn't anymore prattle from you. I shall take my leave

Onetha: Then leave but before you go. What is your name?

Grim Reaper: It's better you don't know my name. Just know I'm an ally of Mayland's current ruler. Anyways do consider carefully what we had discussed here tonight. It is not your job to try to change your world's fate. However once you begin such a journey. Turning back will be nearly impossible. Farewell Ms. Blindheart. I'm certain our paths will cross again


 The Grim Reaper skillfully tosses the sphere onto Onetha's bed. Then opens a portal in her room and steps inside. Onetha watches as the Grim Reaper disappears from her bedroom. Sitting alone in her bed with the sphere in hand. While tears run down her eyes. Onetha thinks about the fate of Asira


THE END

Forbidden Chapter 69


Forbidden Chapter Sixty Nine


Bad Blood Part Two



After Hellin rescued Anna from Iron Zabel, Hellin realized between her earlier battle against Zabel and with him nearly killing Anna, that killing Zabel would not be an easy task. That fact alone brought Hellin great pleasure, as there was nothing to gain from slaying the weak. Now with Anna safely by her side again, Hellin and Anna resumed their battle against Zabel. 


Hellin: You're no fucking God. And we will never allow you to ever become one...even if I have to kill you a thousand fucking times over

Zabel: Boast all you like, demon. Both you and your friend will die soon enough. Then I can complete my ritual to Godhood. Now prepare to die, demon harlots!

Anna: Harlots? I'm going to enjoy killing this asshole

Hellin: Anna, before you do anything stupid, allow me to fight Zabel for a bit

Anna: But, Hellin, I--

Hellin: No fucking buts, Anna! Just do as I tell you. While I fight this son-of-a-bitch, keep an eye out for any openings. Also, summon another of your Tarot Monsters...in case Zabel attempts to kill you again. It's time I show this motherfucker what I can really do


After giving Anna her orders, Hellin charged toward Zabel. Covering both her hands with fire, Hellin prepared to unleash a deadly attack. Meanwhile, Anna did as Hellin ordered her to do and summoned her Tarot Monster, Estrild: The Amazon Empress, into the Throne Room. Anna then watched as Hellin challenged Zabel, waiting for an opportunity to help her friend against the powerful cult leader.

Hellin held out both hands in front of her and unleashed a ferocious stream of fire towards Zabel. Unfazed, Zabel created a blue and lavender aura around his body to shield himself from Hellin's oncoming attack. The flames struck Zabel's chest, but his aura shield prevented Hellin's attack from inflicting any damage upon him. Hellin, though annoyed by how effortlessly Zabel defended himself, her determination to kill Zabel did not waiver. Having successfully warded off Hellin's attack, Zabel prepared an attack of his own.


Zabel: Pathetic! Did you really think such a feeble attack could possibly harm me? Now, demon, let me give you a demonstration of a real attack! HAVOC FORCE!


Zabel transformed his aura shield into a fearsome energy blast and launched the deadly assault toward Hellin. Hellin saw Zabel's onslaught charging at her. Hellin tried to think of a way to dodge Zabel's attack while also giving herself an opening to counterattack. Anna, still possessing ice powers from the potion she drank earlier, decided to use whatever power she had left to help Hellin. Anna knew Hellin would be pissed with her, yet she used her supernatural speed and swiftly positioned herself in front of Hellin. Anna quickly explained herself to Hellin, her friend and Master.


Anna: Hellin, I'm going to use the remainder of my ice powers to neutralize Zabel's attack. I'll be alright. Estrild is keeping a careful eye on me. This is the opening you need, Hellin. Make your move


Hellin nodded her agreement before leaving Anna's side. Anna took a quick, deep breath and gathered all the ice power within her body. Seconds before Zabel's Havoc Force struck her, Anna opened her mouth and unleashed a gigantic blizzard. The two attacks collided and exploded upon impact. Anna, closer to the explosion, was sent flying, but Estrild caught her just in time.

The impact created a chilly fog within Zabel's Throne Room, making it difficult for him to see. He used his ability to sense presence, and located Hellin within the fog. The moment Zabel pinpointed Hellin's location, Hellin struck him in the face with a Thunder Kick. (A move she stole from her sister, Mihoshi). The powerful kick electrocuted Zabel and sent him crashing into his throne. Anna, still being carried by Estrild, smiled when she saw Hellin use her sister's kick. Hellin stood strong and proud of the injuries she inflicted upon Zabel. Taking a few seconds to savor the moment, Hellin then walked over to Zabel and continued her assault.

Meanwhile in the hallway of Zabel's hideout, the battle between Team Rose, with Hisako and Oriana, against Levin and Lycra continued. Oriana turned her skin into chocolate diamond, which allowed her to engage in direct combat. Lava Rose used his candy magic to create two bubblegum minions. Hisako with her sword, Kagemori, firmly in hand, ordered her comrades to attack Levin and Lycra, as she charged at them with Lava Rose's minions and Oriana as backup. Zira shot out energy balls made of dark energy. Tre' used his signature technique Odd World Shaking! Lava Rose shot a blob of acid goo from his mouth. Ricky spat out multiple bullet-shaped fire blasts. As the barrage of attacks moved toward them, Levin and Lycra quickly summoned a barrier to protect themselves. Although the barrier kept the projectiles from harming the dark sages, it was becoming weak from so many attacks.

This allowed Hisako and Oriana the opening they needed. Hisako swung her blade as Oriana delivered a merciless punch to Levin and Lycra's barrier. The blade and punch broke open the barrier upon impact and left both dark sages vulnerable to follow-up attacks. Seeing that their defense was now destroyed, Lava Rose ordered his bubblegum minions to latch themselves onto Levin and Lycra.


Hisako: Great teamwork everyone. Now that Levin and Lycra are trapped, it's time Kagemori and I finish them off

Oriana: Are you going to kill them?

Zira: I most certainly hope so
Hisako: I know killing isn't your thing Oriana but if I don't finish off Levin and Lycra now and they get out of those gummy traps, I guarantee you they won't be merciful. Now everyone stand by as I prepare my finishing move

Levin: Damn gum all over my body. Do you imbeciles think this is going to stop us?

Lycra: My comrade and I have ways of getting rid of such traps
Levin: Lycra, let's show these fools that our powers have no limits. Once we melt this gum around our bodies, Lycra and I will take you maggots down for good

Hisako: You fuckers better stop talking then and get to melting, otherwise you'll soon find yourselves chopped in half


Closing her eyes, Hisako surrounded herself and Kagemori in white and green energy and prepared to release her finishing move against the trapped dark sages. Levin and Lycra busied themselves with heat magic to melt off the gum encapsulating their bodies. By the time they burned all the gum off, Hisako was ready to strike.


Hisako: DRAGON CROSS!


Surrounded in magical colorful leaves and moving faster than sound, Hisako slashed the abdomens of Levin and Lycra, killing both dark sages instantly. Levin and Lycra took one final look at each other before the top halves of their bodies dropped to the ground; their lower halves dropping only seconds later. Oriana, not a fan of bloodshed, closed her eyes with Ricky at her side to console her. Having eliminated the deadly duo of Levin and Lycra, Hisako thanked Kagemori before placing him back inside his sheath.


Lava Rose: Wow, that was really fucking impressive. I knew Samurais were cool, but not THIS cool! Hisako, you gotta join Team Rose

Hisako: I appreciate the compliment and while I appreciate the offer, I don't think I would make a good fit. Besides, I have much unfinished business of my own...'course that will have to wait until after The Children of Ruin are all dead. Well, now that those two are dead, let's relax a bit before aiding Hellin and Anna against Zabel

Oriana: That reminds me, do you think Yura took care of a certain distraction for Hellin and Anna?

Hisako: If you're talking about Celia, I'm very certain Yura is dealing with her. I just hope Yura is strong enough to defeat her


After hurling hateful words at each other, Yura transformed herself in front of Celia. It was not a demonic transformation, but Yura let loose her inner killer. Yura stared at Celia with dead eyes then charged at her with murderous intent. Celia covered her left hand with red energy then charged at Yura with equal deadly intention. The two women clashed and began striking each other's vital organs. Each defended herself against the other's attack. Unlike Yura; however, who showed no signs of struggling, Celia languished against a murderous Yura. Continuing her relentless assault against Celia, Yura struck Celia directly in her chest and sent her crashing to the ground. Yura now had Celia right where she wanted her. Yura covered her right hand with negative energy and created an energy dagger around her hand then, running toward Celia, she propelled herself in the air. Now high in the air and holding her right hand above her head, Yura readied herself to kill Celia.

Lying on the ground, Celia looked up and saw Yura coming toward her. Normally, this would be a terrifying situation for Celia. Little does Yura know, Celia planned for Yura to attack her this way. While under Yura, Celia only knew the Magical Arts of Negation. Yet, over many years of being separated from her teacher and former ally, Celia picked up skills that Yura has never seen. Celia prepared to go in for the kill.

Yura was only seconds away from striking her when Celia raised her hands to her face and performed a technique called TRAUMA SHOCK! Celia released a grayish black shockwave from her hands, which struck Yura who hovered inches above her. The shockwave knocked Yura out the air. Yura crashed to the ground, holding her head with her body shaking erratically. Celia, wearing a sadistic smile, rose from the ground and walked toward Yura. A surge of bad thoughts and painful memories ran through Yura's mind. Unable to understand what Celia did to her, Yura began panicking.


Yura: CELIA! WH-WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME? That move isn't from the Magical Arts of Negation

Celia: Oh Yura, my dear pitiful girl. The move I hit you with isn't something I learned from you. After all, if I only relied on the moves you taught me I would be dead already.
The technique I performed on you is called Trauma Shock. When used on a target, it places the individual's mind in their own personal hell; forcing them to relive every bad memory or deed they ever committed. Since you have both a tragic past along with many years of murdering under your belt, I was certain this was the perfect attack to use against you.
Now that you are paralyzed by your many sins, it would be no problem for me to kill you here and now...but that wouldn't be much fun at all. Instead, I'm going to watch you become so disgusted with yourself that you'll fall into despair and commit suicide. I can't think of a better way to see you die, Yura. I waited so long for this day and it was SO worth it! I'm going to enjoy watching you go insane, bitch! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!


Yura, who was only seconds away from killing Celia, now found herself forced to relive her darkest memories and past sins. Before she could have any hope of defeating Celia, Yura must first survive against herself.

Back inside Zabel's Throne Room, Hellin continued her assault against the cult leader, striking him with vicious blows to the face and stomach. His face bruised and bloody, Zabel stared up at Hellin with a mixture of malice and shock in his eyes. Hellin then lifted Zabel by his neck and belittled the cult leader for challenging her.


Hellin: Did you truly believe you were going to win? While your tricks did throw me off at first, you motherfucker, all you truly managed to do was delay the inevitable

Zabel: If it wasn't for the aid of your annoying servant, I would've killed you already. I absolutely detest you damned demons. The way you abominations fight is beyond cowardly...using whatever means necessary to achieve your goals. I swear once I become a God, I will make it my business to eradicate your kind from existence...along with everything else I find displeasing 

Anna: You got some fucking nerve, you asshole! Aren't you the same bastard who wanted to sacrifice thousands of innocent lives just so you could become a God? The only abomination here is you, Zabel! Even without my assistance, Hellin would've found a way to defeat you

Zabel: I'm going to savor the moment when I get my hands on you... you pumpkin-haired BITCH!


Hellin, angered by Zabel's remarks to Anna, struck him again in the face, drawing more blood. Hellin's face and voice then changed from human into her demonic appearance.


Hellin: Watch your damn tone when speaking to my friend. And if you think you're going to lay a finger on her then you're more foolish than you look, you cocksucker! I've been holding back my strength, so I wouldn't kill your ass too quickly. Now I think you've lived long enough. It's just unfortunate that my mother couldn't witness your demise...considering she wanted you dead the most


Zabel: Isn't your mother's name Othello?

Hellin: What's it to you? 


Zabel: It matters not to me, but you should be very cautious of her. Othello knows more than she lets on

Hellin: If this is another one of your fucking mind games...I swear I will eat you alive! Feast on your feet up to your abdomen. Just so you can feel yourself dying the most agonizing death imaginable

Zabel: I'm not lying to you, demon. Fortunately for you and your pathetic friend, I'll have slain both of you before you can witness your mother's true nature

Hellin: Get ready to die, motherfu--


Before Hellin could finish, the doors to the Throne Room opened. Team Rose, along with Hisako, Oriana, and Ricky entered the roon. Anna, overjoyed to see her friends alive and well, requested Estrild to let her down. Anna then thanked Estrild before sending her back to the Tarot World. After giving each of her friends a hug and kiss, Anna began speaking to Hisako.


Anna: I'm so, so, so happy each of you is alright. Some cuts here and there but overall, you guys are alright. Wait...where's Yura?

Hisako: Probably still busy battling Celia. I originally intended to have us split up after rescuing Team Rose from Levin and Lycra; however, Yura made it clear she wanted to deal with Celia alone. I promised her we'll give her the opportunity...until Iron Zabel is dealt with. If we didn't hear from her by then, we'll go after her. It appears Hellin and you have already dealt with Zabel

Oriana: Oh my goodness gracious, Hellin is holding Zabel by his neck... and her face is so demonic

Anna: Well, she's a demon after all. Hellin only changes her appearance like this when she's really angry. She'll change back to human once she's done with Zabel

Oriana: Speaking of Zabel, I'm surprise Hellin hasn't killed him already

Zira: I don't know Hellin too well, but she strikes me as the type to torture her prey. Make them suffer before ending their lives

Lava Rose: I swear, you assassin types can be very creepy at times. Anyway, once Hellin finishes off Zabel, all that's left to do is retrieve Yura and leave this place. Hopefully by then, Okubi and the others will be finished dealing with Pruflas...along with Xiaoyu and Nara returning her detective friend, Lorenzo

Tre': I just can't wait for everyone to be reunited. It just sucks we all have to split into groups to take down our enemies

Zabel: Ha... HA HA HA HA HA! Hearing you fools' hope-filled prattle both annoys and amuses me. Did any of you really think it would be THIS easy? Now that I have you maggots right where I want you, it's time I play my trump card


Hellin: What in the fuck are you talking about?


Zabel: Did you really think I would allow you to bloody me up this bad if it didn't favor me? Unlike like you disgusting, insignificant bitch, I'm well versed in Blood Magic and many of its hidden attributes. Now that I have bled enough, I can activate a level of my powers that only pales in comparison to that of a God. Now prepare yourselves for a divine punishment


Hellin: Not if I kill you--



Before Hellin could finish speaking, Zabel summoned enormous strength. He grabbed Hellin's arm and broke it. Hellin screamed in agony. Zabel then effortlessly tossed Hellin toward her friends. Lava Rose sprinted over and caught Hellin in his arms. Anna ran up behind him with teary eyes to check on Hellin and the arm that was just snapped. Zabel, whose face was covered in blood and bruises just seconds earlier, used his Blood Magic abilities to heal himself. He then began transforming before the heroes' eyes.



Hisako: Dammit! Just to think this motherfucker was seconds from death. The bastard played us all


Oriana: He just wanted us in the same place, so he could take us out in one shot

Tre': Well, we aren't going to give him the satisfaction... right?

Zira: That depends on how strong this form of his is

Anna: Hellin, are you okay?

Hellin: My arm is almost healed, Anna. I'm a fucking demon after all. I just wish I anticipated such a tactic from him

Lava Rose: No point in blaming yourself. Now we just gotta hurry up and kill the son-of-a-bitch


Zabel: Your time is over heroes. NOW PREPARE YOURSELVES FOR JUDGMENT!



Zabel transformed from a muscular but human-looking man into a berserker-like being with rocky colored skin and long white hair. Standing at nine feet with bulging muscles, he stared at his enemies with ruby red eyes. Witnessing such a menacing presence filled Anna, Tre', and Oriana with heavy fear. While Hellin, Lava Rose, Zira, and Hisako are worried, they still hope to defeat the transformed Zabel.

Zabel (False Godform): Now let me introduce you maggots to my False Godform! While I possess great power in this state, it's not enough for me to be satisfied. However, it is more than enough to kill each and every last one of you! Now speak your peace because you're all about to die!

Hisako: Oh go fuck yourself! You self-absorbed bastard! Just because your outer appearance now matches the ugliness of your soul, doesn't mean Kagemori and I can't cut you down


Hellin: It's going to take more than breaking my arm to stop me


Lava Rose: Okay everyone, let's hit this False God with everything we got

Zira: I swear on Asura's name, I will not die tonight!

Zabel: Fools! Do you think I would even allow you maggots a fighting chance? DIVINE ERUPTION!


Before the heroes could make their move, Zabel unleashed a devastating shockwave that struck the heroes with critical force. The room filled with agonizing screams. Hellin, Anna, Hisako, Oriana, Ricky, Lava Rose, Zira, and Tre' all dropped to the ground. Each of them laid lifelessly. Zabel smiled at the sight of the fallen heroes. The ritual time drew near. With the heroes out the way, Zabel could continue his ritual without interruption...or so he thought. Although she suffered quite the hit from Zabel's attack, unlike the others who remained unconscious, Hellin managed to muster enough strength to get to her feet. Zabel, sensing Hellin's activity, became enraged.



Zabel: YOU! Why won't you just stay FUCKING DOWN!


Hellin: If you think killing me is going to be that easy, you're sadly fucking mistaken. Even though you managed to pull a fast one on me earlier, I promised myself that I would kill you. I didn't come this fucking far just to die. I have to keep getting stronger...and the only way to achieve that is by killing you! Now, you may have badly injured me, but it's gonna take much more than that to kill me. Prepare to die, motherfucker!

Zabel: So you want to be Ms. Badass? Well, BITCH, I'm going to give you the fight you desire. It's going to be the most grueling, soul-shattering fight you will ever have. I'm going to beat you in ways you wouldn't imagine in your worst nightmare. I'm going to make you regret not only your own existence, but the existence of those who created you. I'm GOING TO MAKE YOU FUCKING SUFFER, YOU MISERABLE BITCH! I WILL NOT BE DENIED MY ASCENSION TO GODHOOD! Even if I have to kill you a thousand times, I WILL BECOME A GOD!

Hellin: Still on that God bullshit? Even if it kills me, I'm going to see to it that your dream of becoming a God is only that. Now, Zabel, let's play

Hellin transformed herself once again into her demonic form. She readied herself for an all-out showdown against Zabel's False Godform.
