Yubel hated receiving reports about what happened between Juudai and Johan. Especially since everything to do with Juudai now involved the Light of Ruin.
Without Johan, someone had to lead, and while Edo Phoenix did a decent job of it, all of the rebels knew that Yubel remained in charge.
Johan did all of this so much better. He understood Yubel; how could he not after their years together? But after that disastrous treachery which ended with his capture…
Yubel wanted to fly to Juudai's castle and free them. Johan from Juudai and Juudai from the Light of Ruin. Doing so would technically be easy for them. Whatever defenses Juudai had, they would be as nothing before Yubel. Nothing could harm them at all.
At least nothing in combat. In this world, where spells and traps could be as real as the slice of a blade, there were ways that they could be attacked. And there were ways that their power could be negated.
If that happened, then the Light of Ruin could strike, and Yubel couldn't let that happen. Above all else, they needed a way to free Juudai without allowing the Light to strike back.
I may have to leave Johan there. Yubel hated the thought. Johan remained their oldest human friend and ally. Letting him be hurt at Juudai's hands consumed them.
The Light would pay for this and for the pain Juudai suffered because of it as well. Yubel would see to it all.
One day.
The End
Notes: So that's why Yubel, who cannot be harmed by any attack and will turn it back on the attacker, can't just fly in and take back their Juudai. Traps and spells can still target them and the Light of Ruin knows this. It has to be done with care and Yubel isn't a strategist. But in time, matters will be sorted. That, however, is another story. Thanks for sticking with me the last ten days! 2019 is on the way and my plans for it include finishing already posted stories. Which is one of the reasons I devoted December to posting new pieces. That, and I liked the idea of a month of GX.
