Chapter 18: Return of the Crusaders
The afternoon after the quite eventful last night, Akira was once again, walking alone in the streets, amongs the endless crowd of people both human and beast, deeply absorbed in thought, hands in his pockets.
He still coudn't believe what had come to pass, the previous night. Kaim and Sirene had been reunited. Jun had finally found out that he was just like her, and he had even revealed his past to her. For one moment Akira was afraid that Jun would have rejected him after lying to her all this time. Yet, they embraced after Akira told her the truth. And after slapping him with such force he flew straight into a tree, she still thanked him for saving her life. He was now confident for the future: maybe, just maybe…. Even Sirene would become a friend to him?
"Who would have thought. Still can't believe it happened." mused Akira in his mind. Had Kaim arrived even a minute later, history could have repeated itself. Instead the pachyderm demon had prevented the tragedy and the bloody outcome from happening again. He had opened Sirene's eyes after Akira stood up for him, when Sirene, still blinded by her pride, refused to acknowledge Kaim's feelings. And it ended with Sirene breaking down in tears upon finding out what she had done. For the first time in many years, hope had returned to Akira. The hope that the tragedy that befelled him along with the people of his world would not repeat itself. Hope that the rest of the demons, like Kaim and Sirene could finally be shown just how wrong they were all along. Fate had truly given them a second chance. And Akira this time, will do everything to safeguard this world, its people and his new friends, even if it would eventually require him to sacrifice himself again.
He was so absorbed in thought, that he didn't notice someone walking towards him from the opposite direction. The collision was inevitable.
Only this time, Akira heard a distinctively feminine "Oww!" upon colliding not with another person as built as him, but with someone whose body felt… delicate, soft. Unsurprisingly, he was still on his feet, while the person he had collided into, had fallen butt-first to the ground.
Annoyed at being suddenly pulled out of his thoughts like that, Akira began "Hey! Do you even know w-"
Only to cut himself mid-speech and for his lips to part away slightly as soon as he got a better look at the person he had collided with. It was a beautiful young woman that had long, wavy, deep violet hair, a beautiful face framed by thin lips and light brown eyes and a voluptous, beautifully shaped body. She wore a red coat, with a black dress underneath, which covered her beautiful, milky white legs only mid thigh, as well as black, medium heeled shoes.
"Talk about rotten luck. Why do i always stumble upon attractive women?" thought Akira, his eyes slightly wide at her beauty. He had to admit it, she was very pretty. Not as pretty as Jun, of course but even still: her beauty certainly rivalled his girlfriend's own.
The woman, who laid on the ground, after having propped herself with her hands on a sitting position and rubbing the back of her head, took a look at Akira and could only gasp in astonishment and awe at how handsome he was. She took in everything from his powerful chest, muscular arms and legs and his attractive face and the way his clothes hung tight against his mucles which only served to highlight his phisique, slowly and with wonder. She had never seen such a handsome and attractive man before in her life.
They remained like this for some seconds before Akira broke out of his trance, extended his left hand and with a soft smile, spoke "Sorry about that. I was so absorbed in thought, i didn't even know where i was going. You alright?" with a soothing tone and face, causing the young woman to gasp even more. He had such a lovely, soothing voice in spite of his athletic build.
But then the young woman sensed something in the man in front of her. An inhuman scent similar to her own but at the same, different. Either way, she put her thoughts aside and with a beaming smile, replied "Hey, are you a beast too?" with an enchanting, beautiful but at the same time cheerful voice, while taking Akira's hand with her own delicate one and getting on her feet, taking Akira by surprise slightly at how tall she was. In fact she was just as tall as Jun. Why where all girls and women so tall nowadays?
Akira, a little surprised at the fact that this woman immediately recognized that he was not human, slowly pulled his hand away and replied with a casual but also slightly awkward tone "Y-yeah. How did you figure it out?"
Noticing the slight uneasiness on Akira's face, the young woman giggled cutely, closed her eyes before replying "Well, i do have a very keen sense of smell. Plus, you look way too attractive to pass off for a normal guy." in a playful tone, charming Akira even more.
With a smile he replied simply "I'll take that as a compliment then." with a happy tone, as the woman reopened her eyes, earning a smile from her, before he introduced myself "Name's Akira. Nice to meet you." For some reason, he had a feeling that the woman in front of him wasn't exactly what she appeared to be and so he decided to avoid telling her his surname.
"Likewise, Akira. My name is Hitomi. Hitomi Konno." replied the beautiful woman in front of him, now known as Hitomi, while extending one of her soft hands towards Akira.
He shook hands with her again before saying "Ah, and a lovely name as well." causing Hitomi to blush slightly due to how gentle he sounded. She coudn't help but notice how similar he sounded to a person she once knew and admired. That gentle, but at the same time shy voice and peaceful face, reminded Hitomi so much of her….
She was pulled out of her thoughts by Akira asking "You know, you're quite the tall girl aren't you? Since when are all of you girls so tall?" in a casual and jolly tone, causing Hitomi to gasp slightly.
She then smiled playfully at him before replying happily "Well, it all boils down to keeping yourself healthy really. You can't have too many fruits, vegetables and milk in your diet, or so i say!" before letting out a cute laugh that was shared with Akira.
Hitomi then continued "And plus, having a healthy, attractive body is the key to success in being a model." taking Akira completely by surprise. It took all of his might for his face not to fill with surprise and bewilderment. Nonetheless, he replied hesitantly "Y…. you are a model?"
Hitomi nodded before replying cheefully "Yes, Akira. I may be only 19 years old, but i've managed to find a job in one of Tokyo's most renowned agencies!" causing Akira's face to fill with stupor and astonishment.
He then replied "Are you for real? You're only 19?! And you already look this beautiful?!" his voice humorously full of disbelief and his eyes wide open. How could someone so young also be so beautiful?
Hitomi laughed happily, her cheeks turning slightly red at Akira's reply before replying "Awwww….. please, you give me way too much credit. And you know, you're quite the looker yourself, don't you think?" causing Akira to gasp slightly, his cheeks slightly turning red.
Smiling nervously and sheepishly rubbing the back of his head with his left hand, Akira replied "I-i guess you could say that." in an equally sheepish tone, earning a cute giggle from Hitomi. She still coudn't help but notice how similar Akira sounded and acted compared to someone who once worked alongside her…..
After staring at him for a few seconds, the violet haired woman spoke "You know Akira, you do kinda remind me of a person i once knew." taking him by surprise, a puzzled look forming on his face.
"I do?" he asked simply, while Hitomi replied "Yeah. One of the models i used to work with was a lot like you. Kind, soft-spoken and always with a soft smile on her face, just like you. Not gonna lie, but i did always admire her due to her beauty and success. Heck i even went as far as to apply for the same jobs as her just to spend time with her!"
As soon as Hitomi happily recalled those memories, every doubt vanished from Akira's mind and it took all of his might to keep his face from contorting into a scowl. Nonetheless, he kept his smile and replied "Well, i suppose i made quite the nice impression on you then." earning a nod from Hitomi. He then took a look at his watch and found out that it was 12.00 P.M. Perfect. It was the perfect excuse to leave.
"Oh, it's late. Sorry, but i have an appointment with my girlfriend. I have to go." he simply spoke, after coming up with an excuse to leave.
Hitomi merely replied "I see." before gasping and continuing "Oh, i forgot! My boyfriend is also waiting for me!" having remembered the date she had arranged with him.
Seizing the opportunity, Akira spoke "Well, off you go then. You don't want to keep him waiting."
With a smile, Hitomi replied "Well, what can i say? I do tend to get carried away sometimes." they then began to go on their separate ways before Hitomi turned towards Akira and spoke "See you around, Akira! I do hope we meet again!" while waving happily at him.
Akira then waved back and replied "Likewise. Take care, Hitomi. Bye!" with a cheerful tone, bidding farewell for now. He then watched as Hitomi resumed her walk, before eventually dissappearing in the crowd. Akira then quietly resumed his walk, but this time his face was filled with worry and apprehension.
"There's no doubt about it. She knows Jun." he mused in dismay in his mind. It didn't take long for Akira to figure that out. Yet that wasn't the reason why Akira had been so unsettled. Hitomi's behaviour was. She seemed such a nice and cheerful young woman but after hearing that Akira reminded her of that certain person, that she admired, all of his initial liking of Hitomi vanished immediately. Even though he had just met her, he had a strong feeling that she and Jun didn't part ways in the best of terms. And the fact that she was a beast only served to further support his theory.
Plus he knew far too well that looks were always deceiving. For some reason he coudn't help but feel that Hitomi's behaviour was nothing but a facade. He could see it from her eyes, an otherwordly,, primal desire and lust, hidden within them. But then again, she did immediately find out that Akira was not human and she had no troube letting him know that she was like him. Plus even Sirene herself in the end, for all her pride, bloodlust and ferocity still ended up breaking down in tears after Kaim confessed his feelings for her, proving that every single person in the end is more than what it seems.
"Maybe i'm just overthinking things but who knows? Maybe she's not a bad person after all." mused Akira again in his mind. If he learned one thing ever since he was reborn in this world, it was that everyone deserves a second chance. True, he didn't know what happened between Jun and Hitomi but the latter seemed such a nice, upbeat and cheerful woman. Maybe if he were to meet her again, he will get to know her better and see her for what she truly is.
Either way he put his thoughts aside and dissappeared among the crowd, heading for one of Tokyo's parks.
Several hours later, in another part of the city
(OST: "Sensui's Territory" Yu Yu Hakusho soundtrack = watch?v=ANVb4zget6Q )
Tsukuba Island.
Former lair of the Rogue Devil-Beasts known as the Crusaders used as their base of operation in their war against humanity, now inhabited only by peaceful Beasts, who had found their place in this world after the defeat of Asuka. After the crisis ended, not a single human soul dared to ever venture in the island again again.
Yet, as the sun began to set, one lone man, wearing a blue jacket with a hood covering his head, black pants and red sneakers could be seen walking towards a gigantic, 100 meter tall skyscraper with a red roof, that stood ominously at the center of the island, dwarfing every single building that surrounded it.
Soon the man made his way through the entrance of the building and through the elevator after a few minutes reached the highest floor. As soon as he reached the roof the building the man had arrived at the place chosen for his meeting with an individual who would have helped him fulfill his goals as his consort told him.
Upon arriving at the roof of the building the man was rewarded with the presence of six individuals. Glancing at his right, he spotted his consort, a tall, ethereal beauty that had long, wild orange colored hair, crimson-pupilled eyes, a voluptous, enchanting body that wore a purple jacket with a red dress underneath that barely covered her legs and surprisingly no shoes whatsoever, leaving her feet bare. She was sitting on a roof vent, her legs one on top of the other and when she spotted him, a lustful smile formed on her face and her eyes filled with passion upon spotting her lord.
"You sure took your time, my lord. Have not ever heard that it is rude to keep others waiting?" she spoke in an eloquent, enchanting voice filled with utter lust and at the same time tease at her master being late at this meeting. The man, merely removed his hood in response, revealing his face. The face of a man in his late twenties that had fair skin, short pale silver hair, pale blue eyes with contracted pupils and irises and red bolts descending on his cheeks from his eyes. As would be expected from such facial features, the man was not human and neither was his consort.
The man then glanced towards the orange haired femme fatale, a cold and deadpan expression on his face before replying "I merely took my time to ponder on whether or not this was worth my time." in an equally emotionless, cold tone. His gaze then moved from his consort to the other five individuals in front of him.
The first individual his eyes glanced upon was a tall, quiet man that had brown scholarly hair, brown eyes and wore a pitch black trenchcoat that hid his figure as well as brown pants and black shoes. Despite having a mostly stoic expression, the silver eyed man could clear see a suppressed bloodlust in his eyes.
The one next to him was a shorter man that had lighter brown colored man, black eyes and wore a pair of glasses, a grey jacket with a light blue shirt underneath, dark grey pants and blue sneakers. Said man had his hands crossed and was staring at the silver haired man with interest in his eyes. Way too much interest for the silver haired man's comfort.
His eyes then landed on an utterly beautiful woman that had long, black, wavy hair, a pristine, beautiful face, framed by brown eyes and soft lips that wore what appeared to be a white coat with a dark pink dress underneath as well as black boots. She was staring coldly at him, a cold, calculating expression on her face. The silver haired man could feel the suppressed bloodlust and evil desires just by looking at her eyes.
Next to her stood a tall, well-built, burly man that had light grey short hair that reached at his chin that wore a blue maintenance uniform and trousers as well as brown shoes. Said man was also staring the silver haired man down, with a smug, arrogant smile on his face, sizing him up.
Finally and most unusually, in between the four individuals stood a young boy who looked no older than 8 to 10 years that had short brown hair and eyes that wore a blue jacket, a white shirt, grey pants and blue sneakers. Yet that boy had an unusually sinister and calculating expression on his face that would hardly be present on such young people. For some reason, the silver haired man, felt slightly intimidated by the boy. Even though it appeared to be a child, he could clearly see that his eyes were filled with utter malice and sadism.
The boy then spoke "We meet at last. My colleagues have told me so much about you." in a soft but at the same time sinister and collected tone before extendind his right arm towards the black haired woman "Miss Izumi in particular has taken quite an interest towards you." earning a glare from the orange eyed woman that now stood at the silver haired man's side.
The black haired beauty, now known as Izumi, simply ran a hand in her hair before replying coldly "Mmph. I was merely wondering if he was worth our time." while narrowing her eyes at the silver haired man and orange haired lady in front of them.
Said silver haired man replied "The feeling is mutual, beast." putting emphasis on the last word just to spite her, causing a scowl to form on Izumi's face. A smug smile formed on the orange haired woman at her lord's comeback.
A smile formed on the brown haired boy at the man's arrogance "You are just as entertaining as my colleagues told me, Mister Set. Or should i call y-" began the boy again…..
"My true name is of no concern to you right now." abrubtly stated the silver haired man, now known simply as Set, cutting the boy off mid question. This caused a scowl to form on the tall, grey haired, well built man at Set's disrespectful attitude so he took a few steps towards the silver haired man before stopping right in front of him.
"Ya know, i really don't like your attitude, punk. That ain't no way to talk to someone who's willing to work alongside you." he spoke spitefully, while putting his left hand on his shoulder, sizing him up. Who did this punk think he was in disrespecting the leader of the Crusaders, strongest of all Devil-Beasts?
Set however was not impressed by this intimidating display. He merely rolled his eyes before focusing his gaze on the brute, smug smile on his face and taunting "Tough words for someone who obeys to a mere child."
Those insolent words sent the brute on the edge. Clenching his teeth in fury, he immediately grabbed Set by his jacket and began "You dirty little, SON OF A-" while bringing his arm back, intending to punch Set in the face…..
"Let him go, Mister Kotura." commanded the boy, cutting off the grey haired brute, now known as Kotura, causing him to immediately stop in his tracks and gasp in shock.
"Boss?" he asked incredolous after turning towards him, while lowering his arm. Set in the meantime glanced towards the orange haired woman at his side, noticing that one of her hands had turned into dark purple thorned vines. He then shook his head, implicitly ordering her to not interfere. The woman, with a nod, turned the vines back into her hand.
"He is way beyond your league. And besides, have you already forgotten that he came all this way to meet us?" spoke calmy and soothingly the boy, actually impressing Set slightly. The boy was far more intelligent and keen than he expected. And his senses were keen enough to sense the difference between Kotura's power and his own.
Yielding, Kotura simply lowered his head and replied "As you wish." he then turned back towards Set, who was grinning mischievously at him. He scowled again and continued "Don't get too cocky, punk. I still dislike you. A lot." before returning at his master's side.
Then the shorter man with the glasses spoke in an intrigued and casual tone "Heh. I like this guy. He just doesn't let anyone boss him around." he then turned towards the quiet, tall man before asking him "Don't you think so, Kitano?"
The taller man at his left, now known as Kitano simply replied "Higa, you forget. Such trivialities are insignificant to us. Our only concern is to serve our master." in a cold, emotionless tone, while glaring at the shorter man, now known as Higa.
Higa merely rolled his eyes before replying "Whatever you say, man. Whatever you say." in a slightly annoyed tone. His taller, quieter colleague could really be so boring sometimes.
The boy, now clearly identified as the leader of the group then spoke calmly "Please forgive my colleagues. Sometimes they can really be so unprofessional." while glancing at them.
Set however, his patience running thin, merely took a few steps forward, away from his consort before speaking bluntly "I have no time for useless chatter. We both know why i came here."
A dark smile formed on the boy's face before he replied "But of course Mister Set. To discuss about our enemies. From what my colleagues have told me, the one who defeated you eons ago is now alive and well and has turned against your own kind." earning a nod from Set.
The silver haired man in response, balled up his right hand into a fist in anger before replying "Yes. Amon and i fought together in countless battles, millions of years ago. He and i also clashed in battle multiple times, though i was never able to defeat him. When i heard that he had turned against his kind, siding with those puny and worthless humans, i could not believe it. He was one of the greatest heroes of our kind. And even though i dreamed to one day surpass him, i always admired him for his strength." his voice slowly filling with unbridled anger before he raised his right arm and slammed the back of his hand against the penthouse's wall, shattering it completely "Why?! How could he have done this?! How could he stoop SO LOW?!" continued Set, before letting out a muffled roar full of indignation at his former comrade's betrayal, startling slightly his consort, while the five individuals simply watched.
Amused at the anger of Set, the sinister boy replied "I see. Our enemies are not so different after all." pulling the silver haired man out of his thoughts
"What do you mean?" asked simply Set, surprised and at the same time intrigued. The boy in front of him replied "Surely you must have heard. Of the tales about the one called Jun Fudo. One like us, who turned against her own kind, siding with humanity, killing dozens of our brothers and sisters. We tried, to no avail to enlighten her, to remove the feeble human roots that held her back, to let her realise and embrace her true nature."
Set listened with interest as the boy's voice slowly filled with utter contempt and hatred. He did in fact hear about the tales of the so called "Devil Lady". How she saved both the humans and the Devil-Beasts from the one known as the God Child. Truthfully, he was curious to see just how much how a formidable warrior this woman was and how she compared to the powerful demons he fought with.
He put his thoughts aside before speaking "I take it then, that she was the one who slew you? Then why are you standing right in front of me now?" while folding his arms over his chest. Of course among the tales he heard there also was one of her battle againt a gigantic bird-like white and blue beast who was the result of five powerful beasts fusing together.
In return the boy let out a dark chuckle before replying "You really have done your homework have you not, Mister Set? Yes, she was the one who killed the five of us." causing a spiteful, vengeful to form on every single one of his henchmen.
He then continued "But here is the kicker: the one you may have known as the God Child did in fact send her straight to hell. While there, she encountered the souls of every single one of the beasts she murdered, including us. For some inexplicable reason, she was able to merge with them, taking their power, coming back from the dead and using that power to defeat the God Child. And what did she do afterwards? She forsook it, threw it away like it was nothing but a mere object, a means to an end. What was completely unforseen was our resurrection. Somehow our souls materialised in our original bodies once again. We have been in hiding ever since, slowly regaining our power. Until we heard of you."
Set listened in intrigue at the boy's recollection. Hell, much like on his original world also existed here. Yet somehow, that woman had managed to escape it's fires. Now he was truly looking forward to fighting her.
"Mmph. How ironic: your executioner is also the one who brought you back to life."spoke Set in a sarcastic, mocking tone, earning a chuckle from the boy who replied "Indeed. And that brings us here. Your consort told me that you and the rest of your kind are not from this world, right?" earning a nod from Set.
"Think about it: your entire kind was annihialated in that war, was it not? But you have been reborn in this new world. You now have the chance to settle your dispute with Amon once and for all." spoke the boy, causing Set's eyes to widen slightly due to how calculating and eloquent he sounded. It dawned on him at that moment: what this boy spoke of was the truth. He had died along with the rest of his kind. Yet they had been reborn in this world. He now had the opportunity to rekindle his feud with Amon and to finally prove that he was the strongest hero of Demonkind.
A dark, sinister smile formed on Set's face before he replied "Yes. I will put that traitor to rest and finally prove who the strongest hero of my kind is!" he then eyes the boy once again before asking "I take it then, that in return for helping you in claiming vengeance against the one who thwarted your campaign, you will finally help me settle my feud with Amon once and for all?"
An evil, sadistic smile formed on the boy's lips before he replied "Exactly. And plus, you know what they say: the enemy of my enemy is my friend." while walking towards the much taller silver haired man.
"Do we have an agreement then…" began Set before walking towards the boy, stopping half a meter before him "Mister Satoru?" he called out his name, while extending his hand towards him.
The boy, now known as Satoru, shook Set's hand with his own while replying "We do. And i look forward to working alongside you."
"So do i." replied simply Set before taking his hand from the handshake and turning around, preparing to leave.
But as he was about to do to, Satoru spoke "Oh, and one more thing." causing Set and his consort to stop "After our enemies will be dealt with, will you assist me in my crusade against humanity? With someone as powerful as you by my side, no one would dare to stand in our way." he asked.
Set however, merely glanced back at the young Beast before replying "Soldiers take orders, not me. I have no interest in conquest or in taking the lives of pathetic beings that do not even try to fight back. But, luckily for you, we have a common goal: revenge against our archenemies."
Satoru, a little dissappointed that his new colleague had no interest in his crusade, sighed and replied "Very well then. I look forward to our next meeting. I shall let you known when the time to act is at hand." earning a nod from Set. Then the silver haired man and his orange haired consort took their leave, leaving the Crusaders alone.
After a few moments of silence, Izumi was the first to speak "Master Satoru." causing the boy to turn towards her "Are you sure about this? I do not trust that man. Not one bit." she asked, still untrusting of the silver haired man her master had just allied himself with.
"Worry not, Miss Izumi. Our alliance is merely temporary. And besides, if this Amon were to join forces with our traitor, and if he his just as powerful as that man said, it would present a grave threat to our sacred cause." replied Satoru, his voice as calm and calculating as ever, sinister smile always present on his face.
Higa then grinned deviously while turning and walking towards the balcony and speaking "Well now, things surely have gotten even more interesting. I'm truly curious to see what this Set is capable of."
Kitano then scoffed at Higa's remark before coming at his side, staring at the view of all the buildings in front of them, observing all that laid before them. He then spoke "As much as i distrust that man, it cannot be denied that he wields great power. A shame that he won't assist us in our crusade. From what i learned however, the rest of his kind had our same goal."
Izumi then came at Kitano's side and added "That is correct. They too desire the genocide of humankind and to reclaim their rightful world. It would definetely be wise to recruit some of them to our cause." while gazing towards the horizon.
With a smug smile, Kotura came at her side and spoke "Mmph. Look at those pathetic worms. Never satisfied, never full, they eat and destroy with grubby hands until nothing is left but piss." while staring in contempt at the civilization before him.
Finally Satoru came in between his henchmen and declared ominously "Humans had their way for far too long, Mister Kotura. But now, their judgement is truly at hand. Beasts will finally take what is righfully theirs, once and for all." His plans had been thwarted once. It will not happen again. Even if it means, allying with creatures different from his kind, this time nothing will stand in the way of Satoru and his sacred cause. He will rid this world of those inferior creatures, unwilling to accept the progress of evolution once and for all.
(Soundtrack ends)
Meanwhile after leaving the building Set and his consort were quietly walking in the now deserted streets, under the cover of the night.
After a while, the orange haired femme fatale spoke "Well then, my lord, what do you think? Did that boy spark your interest?" in a sultry tone.
Set merely scoffed before replying "On the contrary. He is nothing but a spoiled brat, playing with forces and games way beyond his grasp. But he also happens to be a very resourceful and intelligent brat. He will serve his purpose." not even bothering to glance at his companion.
The orange haired beauty however was not convinced, so she added "Is that so? Then surely, at least this so called "Devil Lady" must have sparked your interest as it did to me. A saviour of not one but two races. A traitor to her kind just like Amon. I, for one, am looking forward to meet her." her voice filling with a burning desire to be acquainted with such a warrior of legend, while putting one of her hands on her chest as a result to the lust and eagerness forming in her heart.
"She is of no concern to me for now. All i care about right now is setting my score with Amon." stated Set bluntly, earning a dissappointed look from his consort before a maniacal grin formed on his face "Though, i must confess: the tales i heard about this so called Jun Fudo are fascinating. Perhaps she could turn out to be a worthy opponent."
A sadistic, lustful smile formed on the orange haired woman's lips before she pressed her body on Set's left arm, while putting her right arm around his back and her left hand on Set's muscular chest, stroking it. She then spoke, in a seductive, lustful tone while her crimson eyes made contact with her lord's own "Mmmmmmm….. i love when your face fills itself with pleasure and excitement. It turns me on. For far too long that look has been absent from your face, my lord."
Set, pleased by his consort's warm touch and worshipping behaviour, smiled deviously before finally stating "Yes. I will finally have my revenge against the one who betrayed us! No one will deny me that! Not even Lord Zennon himself! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!"
before erupting in a cackling, malicious and sadistic laugh. The time for his retribution was at hand. He will finally defeat Amon and prove to his kind once and for all who its strongest hero is. He will avenge all those brave warriors who perished by that traitor's hands.
