Chapter 10 - Incarus Prevails Anew

"NO! How could I lose! I was so close!" Kouta said banging his fist on the earth as he slowly becan to dissolve.

"Kouta, I'm sorry...I tried..." Derek said, his head lowered.

"You tried...YOU TRIED? YOU FAILED!" Kouta roared, "NOW MY VENGEANCE WILL BE PROLONGED FOR ANOTHER THOUSAND YEARS!"

Derek made a fist, then began to speak with a furious tone, "I hope you fail again...I was a fool to help you. Be gone, good riddence and be welcomed back to your world as the failiure you are." Derek rose his head and yelled: "HEAD BACK TO YOUR WORLD IN SHAME!"

Kouta had completely disolved and the book had been completely turned into ash. Kanchomé turned to Runaiko.

"Thanks...or I guess I should thank Synaku, if it weren't for him I wouldn't have been able to lower Kouta's energy enough for Folgore Kiyo and Megumi to finish him off," He said, with a large smile on his face.

"No problem, I was glad I could help you in conquering such a baffoon!" Runaiko said, laughing.

The rest of thatday was sacrificed to reparing the stage that was demolished by Kanchomé and Kouta, as well as preparing for Folgore's concert. The gang watched Folgore perform later that night, and heard some fan favourites such as "Hey, Hey Let's Dance All Day" and "Iron Man Folgore".

After the concert Runaiko and Derek went back to Runaiko's house. He got to know Derek a little better. He wasn't the evil kid behind Kouta's book (I guess every book keeper gets a little overwhelmed by the battle) and was actualy a really nice, intelectual person. He even thought Runaiko a thing or two.

After a week or so Derek was sent back to America, and became good friends with everyone else. Runaiko and Derek eventually became pen pals and to this day still write back and forth to each other.

Kiyo and Zatch are still fighting the battle to be crowned Mamodo King, as well as Tia and Megumi, and (amazingly enough) Folgore and Kanchomé. But the three of them now have a weapon that can conquer the others and hold tremendous power: The Sword of Mamodo King.

Incarus may still be a target for vengeance, but for now, he is a power that will lead one book keeper to victory.
