Life 5. Red Dragon Emperor of the Morning Star –Pride–
I, Rito Yuma, am charging together with my friends Silverage Lucifuge Phenex, Akai Asagiri and Tatsuya Shirogane, as we're all using our [Balance Breaker]. We're charging towards The Sin of Pride, the Red Dragon Emperor Price Lucifer, who can be considered the greatest opponent in our lives.
Akai is the first one to get close to Price, slashing at him using his [Grigori Sword] covered in light! However, Price blocked his attack with his right hand!
"The light you're using is burning me… this defect of I has persecuted me my whole life… but just because I'm not an exact copy of Ossan doesn't mean that I'm unable to restore the world order!"
Price yelled those words before hitting Akai with a demonic energy ball on his left hand! Despite that, Akai not only tanked the attack, but used the opening to slash at him once more!
Akai slashed a third time, but this time, Price created another energy ball, clashing with Akai's attack! Akai pushes harder his sword against the ball, but Price-
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
-Increases the power of his attack, dealing direct damage to Akai! Akai was sent flying by that attack, and taking the chance his opponent lost balance, Price launched countless demonic energy balls towards him!
[Reflect]
But in that instant, Tatsuya appeared before Akai, reflecting Price attack back at him! For said reason, Price had no choice but to evade his own attack! Now this is my chance to attack! I active [Number V], [Number IV] and [Number XIX], and then, I launch my attack!
"Holy Lightning – Dragon!"
I created an Eastern Dragon made of Holy Lightning that flew towards Price! Price, instead of evading, tanked the attack!
"Why did he tank it? He was totally able to evade. Something must be wrong."
Tatsuya said that upon noticing Price's actions. In the end, he's right, it's extremely weird Price decided to tank that attack instead evading it. He must be planning something.
"Whatever it is, I'll take this chance!"
Silverage said that before charging at Price! I'll follow him just to be sure he won't do anything stupid. Entering into the smoke created by my attack, Silverage and I looked around for Price. Once we spotted him, he stood still on place, not moving at all from his last position. When he looked at us, I heard it.
"It's a trap!"
Silverage said that before creating multiple clones before us, which were set on fire! The hellfire that attacked the clones, I have seen it before!
"Looks like you evaded my Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames. Too bad, I wanted to test it on my enemies, now that I finally mastered that technique!"
Price mastered Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames?! If those flames are able to touch us, it'll be our doom. Then, Tatsuya also charged at Price!
"Just like my poison on you, those flames won't have any effect on me. Come at me, my fated rival, our battle is most important than anything else!"
Tatsuya said that before launching dozens light spears towards Price! In response, Price launched around the same amount of demonic energy balls!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
[Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide]
When Price tried to boost the power of his attacks, Tatsuya just divided it! Given their powers, they're indeed perfect opponents. Anyway, the attacks ended up cancelling each other, leaving the Two Heavenly Dragons just staring.
"So we aren't important?! I'll show you your wrong!"
Silverage said that before charging at Price at full speed! Taking Price distracted, he slashed with his Dragon Slayer sword multiple times! By taking this opening, I launched Senjutsu rocks to deal more damage to Price! At the same time, Tatsuya launched multiple light spears! Given Silverage took distance when he saw our attacks, they landed perfectly on Price!
When the smoke from our attacks disappeared, Price's armour appeared greatly damaged! From the lack of a helmet to many other important points, the armour has been mostly destroyed!
"I'll kill all of you!"
Price yelled that with an extremely angered face while an intense red aura covers his body! Now that I remember, it is true Price had an obsession over his armour!
"This armour means everything to me! It's the evidence of Lucifer's failure! The evidence of my nature as an Irregular! I have worn this since I founded the Seven Sins, since I took the identity of The Sin of Pride! You'll never understand how important it is to me! Now, I have no choice but to fight seriously so you can meet the true fear, the power of the Red Dragon Emperor!"
And with those words, Price's armour was restored! So he's going to fight seriously while keeping his [Balance Breaker]? It looks like we got no choice but to give our all too!
[Number IX] [Number I] [Number XV] [Number VII] [Number VIII] [Number XVI]
In the moment I active those cards, Price launched multiple demonic energy balls at me!
"Let's see why Beliaruin has such an interest in you!"
I create many balls made of Fairy magic to counterattack! Given the explosiveness of my balls, they were able to destroy Price's attacks; however, Price charged at me taking that opening!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
Price concentrated a huge amount of energy on his punch, and I'm unable to dodge it!
"I'll help you!"
Silverage suddenly appeared before me and created a magical barrier! Yes, with this, Price's attacks shouldn't be able to-
[Penetrate]
The barrier was destroyed like it was made out of thin paper, and Price's punch landed on Silverage! Despite I wasn't hit by it, the shockwave I felt from the impact shows how terrifying Price's power is…!
Tatsuya took the chance from the exchange and launched many light spears towards Price! Before he could evade, I used to shadows to entangle him to Silverage and I, ensuring he won't be able to escape!
"You won't escape as long as we're here!"
Silverage said that before Tatsuya's light spears hit us! Feeling the power of those spears, it is clear Tatsuya's power is also unbelievable. There's no doubt they're the Two Heavenly Dragons…
In the moment I freed us, Silverage took no time to slash at Price once again! Not only him, but Akai also charged at Price, so both he and Silverage slashed from multiple directions at the same time!
"Then I'll just do this."
Given that Price was stuck between Silverage and Akai, Tatsuya created a gigantic spear of light and throws it right at them! Akai and Silverage took distance to avoid being hit by that attack, but then Price was able to see it.
"If that's your attack, let's see what you can do against this!"
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
Price a created gigantic demonic energy ball that clashed against Tatsuya's spear! The extremely powerful attacks that clashed are closer to Price, but that doesn't mean anything right now!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
With those boosts, Price's attack pushed the spear back to Tatsuya! If those attacks were to hit Tatsuya, it'll be miracle if he not only tanks them, but if he survives! But that wasn't what happened.
[Reflect]
Tatsuya uses his ability to reflect attacks, and the attacks go back all the way towards Price, landing on him without any mercy! Once those attacks landed, an immense explosion covered the sky. Once the explosion faded away, what appeared was Price, whose armour was totally destroyed from the attacks just now.
"Tatsuya Shirogane… you're the opponent I hoped you to be… the fated rival Ddraig has promised me my whole life… it's clear that it's no other than you!"
With that exclamation, [Scale Mail] was restored once more, with its aura shining brighter and more intense than ever! It's clear what is going here!
"For that reason, I'll fight using the full power of my [Balance Breaker]! Not even once in my life has anyone forced me to do this, so prepare yourself, the opponent you're about to face is something never seen before!"
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
So this it! [Scale Mail]'s full power! If I want to fight against this opponent, there's no choice but to use my full power too! Just when I thought that, Price launched countless demonic energy balls towards us! Their size is clearly bigger than last time, so it's clear he's using the full power of his [Balance Breaker]!
I use my blade-shaped shadows to counter attack, while Tatsuya uses his light spears and Silverage uses his huge sword. However, unlike us, Akai dodges the balls and charges right at Price!
"I won't let you!"
Price launched even more demonic energy balls towards Akai, but he also managed to dodge those! Akai got close to Price and slashed with a thick layer of light around his sword; however, Price launched a demonic energy ray with his left hand, which forced Akai to use his sword as a shield instead!
After Akai managed to block the attack, Price used his right hand to launch a second ray at Akai, which hit him at zero distance! Akai was brought down by that attack, clashing against the ground!
Right on the next instant, Silverage charged towards Price while launching demonic energy waves! Price was able to evade the attacks, and used his right hand to block Silverage's sword! And then by using his left hand, Price launched a demonic energy ray at zero distance to Silverage, sending him flying!
Price charged at me, so I created a magical barrier to block his incoming attack! Sure, by using [Penetrate] he was able to bypass my barrier, but I activated [Number XX] to restrain his movements, so he was unable to hit me!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
By boosting his limbs, Price destroyed the tentacles that restrained his movement! Then Price used his Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames once again, but Tatsuya came close to me to tank them in my place!
Price launched countless demonic energy balls towards us, and even when Tatsuya used [Reflect], he was unable to reflect all of them, so some of those impacted us! Price charged at us once more, but Tatsuya blocked his punch with his own punch!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
[Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide]
The shockwaves generated by their clash made me lose balance! Even when I try to fight on their level, it's clear I'm no match for the Two Heavenly Dragons…!
To assure our advantage, I moved to a side of Price and used Holy Lightning once more! However, Price didn't move at all, using his free hand to launch a demonic energy ray towards me! I created a magical barrier to avoid being hit!
"Thanks for creating an opening, Rito!"
Tatsuya said that before creating a light spear with his free hand and stabbing Price with it! Even when I couldn't damage Price, Tatsuya took that opening to attack Price, so my plan went more or less as planned!
Price took some distance from Tatsuya and launched demonic energy balls towards him, but Tatsuya just reflected them! Why would he do such an incomprehensible move? It was revelled right after that.
"You felt for it!"
Price created new demonic energy waves to destroy his old balls, and then took the spear out of his torso, throwing it at me! It was such an unexpected action I was unable to react! I fall to the ground with the spear stabbed on my abdomen.
"The energy balls were just a distraction, my actual goal was Rito Yuma over there. Now that that nuisance is done for, can we focus on our fated battle?! The fated battle between the Two Heavenly Dragons needs to start another round!"
"… In that case, come at me."
With his deep and manly voice, Tatsuya answered to Price's intimidation. So the fated battle between the Two Heavenly Dragons of this generation will start now…?!
Price charged at Tatsuya once more, clashing his punch against Tatsuya's again! Once more, the shockwaves generated by their blows make the place tremble…!
By using his free hand, Price attacked Tatsuya using a demonic energy ray at zero distance! Tatsuya was sent back by that attack, which was followed by a direct hit on the face!
"I believed you were smarter!"
And once again, Price used his free hand to attack Tatsuya with an energy ray! As Tatsuya was sent flying by that attack, Price followed after him with an immense demonic energy ball between his hands!
"I'll finish this now!"
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
The energy ball brought down Tatsuya against the ground, with the impact breaking the rocky surface! Tatsuya's armour was dispelled after that attack, so Price landed close to him and started laughing like a maniac.
"I did it! I have defeated the White Dragon Emperor! The duty given to me by the [Welsh Dragon] has been completed!"
Price looked at Tatsuya with a demonic energy ball on his hand. Don't tell me he'll…!
"I can kill you and then look for the next user to destroy [Divine Dividing] like I had planned if I want to!"
However, after saying that, Price looked to a different direction. I, who had taken the spear out of my torso some time ago, looked to where Price was looking at. What I saw was a monster battling against a person flying and attacking with fire and demonic power. No, looking closer, I recognized this person. Despite having 6 Devil wings she usually didn't have, there was no doubt it was Ram.
"On the other hand, I want all of you to suffer as much as you made Satan suffer. And my niece over there, she's an important person to most members of Ossan's army, and even to Ossan himself. For that, I'll kill her first!"
"I won't allow that!"
As soon Price claimed his intention to kill Ram, Silverage appeared out of nowhere. Despite being clearly injured because of the direct attack he received, I could see an intense black aura covering his body, while the power coming out of him is beyond anything I have sensed from him before…
"Ram… is my dear wife! I won't allow you to kill her! There's no person more important to me in this world than herself! If you're going to kill her, then I'll kill you first! This is for Ram!"
An immense and thick black aura covered Silverage as his power increased to unbelievable heights! What is he doing?!
"This body, this soul, even if it falls into an endless ravine! My beast and I, we will exhaust this body and this soul to rise up the endless royal road! Raze, triumph, play, and shine! This is the body of a Demonic Beast! Lodged on top of my fist, is the glorious imperial authority! Dance! Bloom!"
With that chant, Silverage's darker than night black aura whipped up an intense cyclone, that gust all the earth around him, revealing the white colour below the grey rocks! And then, with a last stanza, Silverage's aura busted open!
"[Breakdown the Beast], [Climb Over]!"
Once the darkness created by that explosion faded away, what stood on Silverage's place was a majestic being, without black haze covering his body, which made him look even more intimidating.
His armour turned into something that looked organic, having forelegs, hind-legs, and possessing a tail; its metallic jaw-like segment now showed actual fangs, even a tongue and saliva could be seen within it. Its eye-like segments were now actual eyes with red sclera, but the pupils were the colour of Silverage's eyes.
"This is the Beast of Supremacy, the True Demonic Beast of the Glowing Night Sky, [Lucifuge True Black Night Celestial Beast], this is my full power!"
This is Silverage's full power?! I always knew he was strong, but doesn't this compare to the power of a [Great Satan]…?!
"I don't care if you're using your full power or fighting for my niece, I'll kill you right now!"
Price charged at Silverage with an extraordinary speed, but Silverage blocked it with sword without any effort! Still, he spat blood from his mouth after blocking that attack.
"Since [Breakdown the Beast] is an incarnation of me pushed to my limits which provides an outburst of power by using my life force as the source, I'm only able to use this power for a few minutes per year. Nonetheless, if someone deserved to face this power, it was you."
By rotating his body to the right, Silverage launched an extremely thick demonic energy ray from his jaw, which sent Price flying! The power I can feel from that attack is beyond ridiculous!
Silverage closed the distance between him and Price in an instant, and then attacked using his sword, which sent Price clashing against the ground! The shockwaves generated by that attack were a testament of Silverage's full power!
From the ground, Price launched countless demonic energy balls towards Silverage! Even then, Silverage cut them with his sword without any effort! Silverage launched an immense demonic energy wave, which hit Price without mercy!
Price charged at Silverage once again, punching right into his abdomen! Yet, Silverage takes the next instant to attack using another ray from his jaw!
Price, whose helmet was destroyed, was able to remain in the air and looked at Silverage with his eyes filled with fear. Calling Silverage the "Strongest Youth" has never been an exaggeration, but he may as well be one of the strongest Devils alive.
In the next moment, Price charged at Silverage once more, and exchanged punches with him! Even when Silverage had the handicap of only being able to use one hand, Price had a hard time keeping up with him!
"It looks like he'll win this by himself, huh. Well, it isn't like can't. And what do you think of that? About the power of my King, I mean."
The one who said that was Akai, who now stood by my side. Given he's part of Silverage's peerage, he must know his power better than anyone else.
"He… is such an unbelievable guy. The power to face against legendary beings, which is something I can only dream of, is possessed by this man. That power… is something I'll never be able to obtain. "
"I won't deny this guy is stronger than anyone I have seen in my whole life."
And now Tatsuya also appeared close to us. Looking carefully, our [Balance Breakers] have been dispelled, so it makes sense to leave the whole battle to Silverage for a while.
"I'll never use a technique that consumes my life span to win battle unless God or another important member of Heaven asked me to. Even then, this man is doing so in the name of that woman Ram. It's clear his love towards her is more important to him than his own life."
As Tatsuya explained the heart-warning nature of Silverage's decision, I look at his battle situation once more. They were exchanging blows just like a moment ago, and Silverage continued to keep the advantage!
Then, Price took some distance from Silverage, but he took that opening to attack Price by using his sword! Price ascended to the sky, but Silverage attacked using demonic energy balls, which landed on Price without any problem!
Silverage charged at Price, retaining his legs by using his tail, and then throwing Price into the ground! Then, countless demonic energy balls appeared from the hole created by Price!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
The size of the balls increased drastically, and all of them were directed to Silverage! Even then, Silverage slashed at such a speed that it was impossible to see his movements, destroying the energy balls with his sword once more!
Price flew away from his hole, but Silverage pursed him! Price launched a demonic energy ray with all his strengths, but Silverage also launched one from his jaw!
[Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost]
Even after boosting the attack, the clash between it and Silverage's was pretty much equalized! However, slowly moving towards Price's direction, the clash showed Silverage's sudden superiority!
"This is for Ram!"
Then, the clash was decided as Silverage's attack hit Price, creating a huge explosion! Once it faded away, what was left was an unarmoured Price falling to the ground! Then, Silverage vomited a big amount of blood and felt to the ground!
We got close to Silverage, seeing he's lacking any energy. Well, he mentioned he could only maintain his [Breakdown the Beast] for a few minutes per year, so it's clearly he reached his limit already.
"What happened… to Price…?"
"Silverage! Lucifuge! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Suddenly, Price stood up from the hole he felt into, yelling Silverage's name while an intense aura covered him! Even after Silverage used his full power, this battle isn't over?!
"You and all your friends, I won't show any mercy at all! Everyone on this place, even the Seven Sins who failed me, will die now! I don't need any of you anymore! All people here will perish now!"
Price, who looked at us with an emotionless look that contrasted his voice expression, walked towards like a ghoul!
[I should enter my ultimate state]
Price said those words without any emotion, and even worse, with Ddraig's voice! A blood red aura with a dangerous quality is emitted from him! I don't know what he's going to do, but I feel shills all over my body…!
[I, who is about to awaken, am the Heavenly Dragon that has stolen the principles of domination from God. I laugh at the "infinite", and I grieve at the "dream"… I shall become the Red Dragon of Domination…]
Price gets covered by sharper armour than before, which has large wings and claw-like things on his hand and feet, and many horn-like things on its helm. No matter how you look at it, it looks like the appearance of a Dragon itself. Wait, that chant! I remember it now! This is what Mal Beliaruin warned me about! The ultimate state of the [Boosted Gear]-
"[And I shall sink you to the depths of crimson purgatory!]"
[Juggernaut Drive]
The place shook while the blood red light covered the entire place, with Price being at the centre of this commotion! The power coming out of him… it'll be safe to say it can be compared Silverage's just a moment ago, if not even bigger!
[Gugyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!]
With that powerful growl, everything around Price was destroyed! Pebbles on the rocky floor levitated from the ground, the sky was covered on black clouds with lightnings, and an intense gust of wind was created; this is the ultimate state of the Red Dragon Emperor, [Juggernaut Drive]!
Suddenly, Price disappeared from my sight thanks to his fast movements, and reappeared right in front of us! Price concentrates a huge amount of demonic energy on his hands, and talks to us with Ddraig's voice.
[Die]
Suddenly, our surroundings were destroyed by Price's demonic energy attack! Being sent flying by his attack, we lied injured on the ground. I think my stamina ran out with that attack, and I doubt anyone else here was able to tank it. The worst scenario has happened: we're unable to defeat Price now.
[Calm down, monsters of I. I can handle this situation by myself]
After hearing that, I looked around us and saw we aren't alone anymore. We're surrounded by other members of [Team Morning Star] and company alongside the monsters. In fact, some of the members are missing: Tenshi-kun, Kaihaku, Xie, Nero, Mint, Ham, Subaru, Tsubasa and Jin. From between them, Ram steps closer to us.
"He defeated Silverage even with the help of Rito, Akai and Tatsuya-san… I always knew Price was strong, but this…"
Ram looks at our comrades having tears on her eyes.
"We must lend them our power! Only in this way, they'll be able to defeat Price! There's only one member of the Seven Sins left, so if we win this battle, we'll win the war!"
All our comrades took a step forward, putting on fighting stance to attack Price! Price, in exchange, looked at them with enraged eyes.
[Now all you, insignificant beings, are challenging me, the Red Dragon Emperor of the Morning Star, to a battle?! I'll finish this like if I were a kid playing with an anthill!]
Price launched countless demonic energy balls, to which Ram responded with an equally countless amount of energy balls! Price launched an energy wave towards Ram, but Haruka used Arondight to destroy it!
María charged at Price, slashing with [Blazer Shining Aura Darkness Blade] and Durandal, but Price blocked the slashes with Dragon arms that appeared from his jewels! Wait, since when and how does María have those weapons?
Price tried to counterattack María's slashes by creating a blade from his jewels, but Goldentime came in time and blocked the blade with a magical barrier!
Price took distance from María and Goldentime, and launched a huge demonic energy ray from a laser cannon that came out of his mouth! But then, Seiryu blocked the attack with an equally huge blast of purification power!
After earth split and shook from the clash of Price and Seiryu's attacks, Price launched an energy ball that hit Ellice! Oryu attacked using Senjutsu rocks at the same time Price launched a second attack towards Yami! The rocks hit Price, but the ball also hit Yami.
Edelross-sensei charged at Price, but her slashes were blocked by Price's blade! Seila launched some balls made with Power of Destruction that landed on Price, but he didn't care about that.
Rina launched bullets of light using her father's shakujo, so Price took his attention out of Edelross-sensei by paralyzing her (no idea how did he do that), and launched an energy ball towards Rina, which she blocked using her tokko!
[Gegogyuuga-gyhugohaaa! Guoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!]
Once again, Price let out a cry as if losing his mind! Apparently, his frustration for being unable to defeat all of us combined to the side effects of [Juggernaut Drive] must be corrupting his mind. Unexpectedly, Azazel-sama and Baraqiel appeared close to us.
"Baraqiel, use the last Phoenix's tears on them."
"Sure, Azazel."
They gave Phoenix's tears to us (Akai, Tatsuya, Silverage and I), so our injured were healed. When the three of us looked at Silverage, he spoke some important words to us.
"I pretty much don't have any energy left, and I'm sure you're just like I. Still, defeating Price is our duty, we were asked to do so by Lucifer-sama. Thus, I don't care if it'll cost my life; I won't stop fighting until he is defeated!"
"And you'll be able to defeat him; I'm going to assure that! Come on everybody! Let's transfer our energy to them!"
As Ram said that, I could feel a surge of power coming into my body. Everyone, my friends, my comrades, my superiors, thank you; I won't disappoint you!
[Vanishing Dragon Balance Breaker]
" "Balance Breaker!" "
We transformed into our [Balance Breaker] states once more, as we're ready to fight! It doesn't matter if this battle will cost our lives, we must win! We must defeat Price!
Akai charged at Price and slashed at him with [Grigori Sword] imbued in light! While Akai continued slashing at him, Price launched a demonic energy ray at zero distance, sending him flying!
Tatsuya launched multiple light spears at Price, but he blocked the spears just by flapping his wings! Price launched a demonic energy ray from his mouth, which headed right at Tatsuya!
[Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide]
Price's attack got halved until it became so weak it didn't matter anymore! But just in that moment, Price charged towards Tatsuya at full speed, so Tatsuya created a magical barrier!
[Penetrate]
But once more, the barrier got broken by Price's [Penetrate], which allowed him to hit Tatsuya without problems! I flew towards Price and put my fingers in position!
"Holy Lightning!"
The attack landed on Price without any mercy! Nonetheless, Price launched a demonic energy ray from his mouth, which I blocked using a magical barrier! But right on the next moment, Price appeared behind me and punched me!
As I was sent flying by Price's punch, Silverage charged towards him! Price created a blade from his jewels to attack, but Silverage blocked it using his own sword! By using his free hands, Price launched a demonic energy ball towards Silverage, which showed an amazing power!
[You won't give up on this stupid idea of defeating me, won't you?! Well, if you won't offer your lives to me, then I must kill you on the most painful way possible!]
Price charged towards Tatsuya, dealing another direct blow! And by using multiple arms created by his jewels, he could attack Tatsuya from all directions!
[You're my natural enemy, Tatsuya! So I'll kill you first before going to finish off Silverage! And then, I'll kill all of you for trying to oppose my great will!]
Price said that while he continued punching Tatsuya! I must help him! I launch many balls of Fairy magic towards him, but he didn't pay attention to my attacks! In that case, what about tying up your limbs with shadows!
Then Price looked at me with an enraged expression, and launched a demonic energy ray from his mouth! I created a magical barrier to block it, but he added [Penetrate] to his attack, so I was hit by it! While I was sent flying, Silverage charged at Price one more!
"I'll protect Ram until the very end of my life!"
Silverage concentrated an immense amount of demonic power into his blade, which finally landed on Price without mercy! The incredible strength of that attack sent Price clashing against the ground!
Nevertheless, Price launched countless demonic energy balls while being on the ground, which landed on Silverage right ahead! The explosion created by those attacks was immense, and also was Silverage's fall to the ground!
As it was planned that way, right when Price surged from the hole on the ground, Tatsuya launched a dozen of gigantic light spears towards him! Price was able to evade some of them, but the rest were able to hit him!
Price came out of the cloud of smoke created by Tatsuya's attack and charged at him! Tatsuya also charged at Price to exchange blows with him! And once again, as if was planned, Silverage appeared from behind Price and launched many demonic energy waves! Tatsuya got away from the attack, so only Price was damaged by it!
[Nuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!]
As Price made a roar out of sheer anger, we regrouped. Looking at my left, Ram and the others were standing there, while the monster behind them didn't move at all. Price positioned himself on a straight line towards us, and started flying towards the sky. Once he stopped, he looked down at us.
[This I is being defeated by the likes of you?! Unacceptable! I have no choice but to do it! In order to release Satan, I must use my final and forbidden technique!]
After saying that, the chest and stomach part of the armour opened, and a launcher showed up. A red aura starts to gather to the launcher, which is concentrated into it. Price spreads his wings, which are glowing red, to the sides.
"Ram and the rest, leave this place at once. If you don't want to die, then it would be better to leave here immediately."
Tatsuya said those terrifying words to Ram, so she and the rest of [Team Morning Star] left us alone with Price and his monsters. So this is the terrain changing technique Mal Beliaruin talked me about…!
[Taste the true fear! [Longinus Smasher]!]
An enormous amount of red aura is shot from out of Price's stomach! As the attack that can end with our lives gets close to us, we take each other hands (I took Akai's, Akai took Silverage's and mine, Silverage took Akai's and Tatsuya's, and Tatsuya took Silverage's)… then-
[Reflect]
Tatsuya reflected Price's ultimate attack, sending it to our left! The monsters that were left behind were enveloped by the red aura that was shot, creating an explosion that destroyed everything around us! The reason we took our hands was this, to create a magical barrier to cover us from that extremely destructive attack!
Once the light faded away, the whole terrain around us was destroyed! No single monster remained; Price's attack killed all of them. The most important part is that I followed Beliaruin's advice: I took out [Number XXI] in front of Price!
"… Guys… restrain Price… I just need a few seconds… if this attacks lands… we will win this war…"
After I say those lifeless words to my friends, Silverage flew towards Price one last time! By using his sword, he slashed at Price even when it was blocked by Price's arms created from his jewels! Then, Tatsuya also flew close to them!
[Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide Divide]
Tatsuya did his best to halve Price's power! Price used his true arms to point an attack towards Tatsuya, but Akai appeared from behind to held back his arms with all his might!
[You again?! Will you ever learn there's no chance of winning?! Only the Red Dragon Emperor's power can win!]
I open my hands and put my arms forwards, then I stuck them together, putting them down while focusing all the energy that's left in my body! An intense red aura concentrates in my hands, so I look at Price with a fearless smile!
"… You're right, Price… only the Red Dragon Emperor's power can win… for that reason… I'll do this!"
Finally, pushed my arms forward at chest height, yelling while shooting my newest technique!
"[Longinus Smasher]!"
As I shot my ultimate technique, Akai and Silverage kept Price in place until the attack was so close it was impossible to dodge! Right before it got to the point I just mentioned, Akai, Silverage and Tatsuya evaded, leaving Price alone on the way of my attack! Right before it landed, Price let out a last cry.
[Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!]
When the attack landed on him, the aura envelopes his whole figure before tainting red the sky because of its sheer and unparalleled power! Once its light faded away, what came out of it was the figure of a critically damaged Price falling to the ground. Once he landed, it was clear he was defeated; it was the end of our long battle.
"… The Great Red Dragon Emperor… has been defeated by a young Devil… I'm sorry… I failed you… Satan…"
As Price let those final words before losing his consciousness, I felt to the ground as I lost my transformation. As I no longer had any energy on my body, I passed away with a smile on my face because of the defeat of the Seven Sins…
