For
an instant, everything was still. No one moved at all.
Then...everything was still stonily silent and unmoving.
"Oy,
isn't anyone going to turn the lights back on?" asked Gaaz. As a
reply, there was a wet squishing sound, and a sliver of light
appeared overhead, rapidly opening until they could once again see
the lights dancing off Dynast's underground realm. Quickly, they each
cast Raywings and flew out. Dynast stood where they had last seen
him, perched atop a mound of organic flesh substance.
"I see
you've survived," he observed, standing up, which caused both
his knees to rot away, and grow back seconds later.
"What,
did you actually expect us to lose to those salespeople and preps?"
asked Verath, "They're even weaker than they were before you
abosrbed them."
"Yes,
but you overlooked something," Dynast smirked, and the whole
rotting away and growing back process repeated on his face, which was
very disturbing. "When you killed them all their pain and the
essence of their deaths came to me and made me stronger." He
laughed and chunks of his jaw went flying. They landed with
sickeningly juicy splats on the organic floor where they were
instantly abosrbed. "Shall we begin?" he asked,
cordially.
"Bring
it on," Xelkitti challenged, brandishing her bloody Death
Scissors. Around her, her comrades did simlarily. Dyanst laughed
again.
"It
shall be the last battle of your lives," he promised. There was
a creaking kind of groaning sound that seemed to come from all sides
of the Dynast-covered room. Then the ceiling shot upwards and there
was an almighty explosion as tons of ice and snow built up over the
centuries was forced skywards.
From
the surface it seemed as if someone had set a nuclear bomb off. The
ground exploded like a volcano with snow instead of lava and ice
instead of ash.
Instead
of being confined to a small room, they now had an area the size of
five or six open football stadiums.
Dynast
withdrew the flesh stuff that covered the floor back into himself
until he once again looked like a dying and rebirthing dark lord. The
Mazoku fanned out to surround the insane Dark Lord.
"Fight
human," Xelfan12 reminded them, "and don't hurt
Shabrinigdo."
"We
forgot the soap and extra swords," Gaaz reminded
them.
"Ah...fuckberries,"
swore Verath. Any further dialogue was cut as the battle began.
Dynast began by shooting hundreds of thousands of tiny icicles at
them. They were repelled by quickly cast Air Valms. The Mazoku then
split up into two groups, one to distract Dynast and the other to
attack him.
"Fireball!"
yelled Xelfan12, while Gaaz shouted out, "Mono Volt!"
Dynast blocked both with ease.
"Pitiful,"
he growled. But while his attention was turned, the remaining three
Mazoku had each cast Burst Flares.
