Ch 5
The White Wizards Assistance
Haruto woke up and found himself tied up and completely drained of magic.
"Medusa must've taken all of my magic."
Medusa, Phoenix and the Wolf Phantom appeared in front of him.
"Now it's only a matter of time before you are driven to despair." Medusa said.
"What do you mean?" Haruto asked.
"You'll see soon enough." Phoenix told him.
Medusa turned to Wolf. "I'll leave the rest to you."
"Yes Medusa-sama."
After that Medusa and Phoenix vanish.
"Quite the obedient dog you are." Haruto said.
"Shut up mage!" Wolf then raised one of his hands to at least rough up Haruto a bit. Just then Garuda and Kraken appeared and fended of Wolf while Unicorn was cutting the rope.
"Thanks Unicorn but how did you find me?"
Unicorn then led Haruto outside where he found Koyomi and Rinko.
"Rinko-chan, Koyomi."
"Haruto are you alright?"
"Yeah don't worry. Koyomi are you okay?"
Rinko then explained what happened.
"How much time do we have left?" Haruto asked.
"10 minutes." Koyomi said weakly.
"Haruto hurry." Rinko said while giving him the Flame Dragon ring.
"Right." Haruto then proceeded to transform but nothing happen.
"Damn that's right Medusa took all of my magic."
"Haruto here." Koyomi said giving Haruto him her hand. "Take the rest of my magic."
"What?"
"Hurry I think it'll be enough to defeat the phantom."
"But if I do that Koyomi you'll…"
"If you can beat him within 5 minutes you'll have enough time to revive me."
The Wolf manage to throw back Garuda and Kraken, they fell near Haruto.
"Garu-chan, Kra-chan, Uni-chan help us give Haruto your remaining magic he should then have more than enough to win."
The three familiars nodded. Then the magic from Koyomi and the familiars flowed out of them and into Haruto. The familiars vanished and Koyomi fainted. Haruto knew the timer started. He immediately changed into Flame Dragon form.
"It's Showtime."
Even in Flame Dragon form Haruto still had trouble catching the wolf almost three minutes had past. Haruto needed the right moment to spring his trap. Then it came the wolf was getting ready to launch an attack, it was then Haruto brought out the Special ring and the dragon head came out of his body.
Wolf realized that Haruto was about to strike and he change his attack quickly he charged right at Haruto. It was then the dragon head bit the wolf.
"You bastard you plan that."
"Yes now it is time to end this."
He threw the wolf and then used the Bind ring before wolf could get up. Finally wolf wasn't able to move.
"Now the finale." Haruto then used the flame dragon slash strike and the wolf was destroyed. Haruto then ran to where Koyomi and Rinko where.
"Ah Haruto-kun hurry!" Rinko yelled.
Haruto then transformed out of his wizard form knelt and brought Koyomi's hand with the please ring to his belt but nothing happened.
"Are we too late?" Rinko asked.
"Haruto cursed at himself. "Damn it I used to much magic." It was then Haruto realized that this was what Medusa meant by sending him into despair.
He looked at Koyomi's lifeless body. "Koyomi."
Just then Haruto felt a presence near him. It was the White Wizard.
"You? What are you doing here?" Haruto wanted to know.
The White Wizard said nothing he took Koyomi's hand and placed it on his belt. Koyomi's body began glowing and the stopped.
"She'll be fine now." The White Wizard said then proceeded to leave.
"Wait!" Haruto called out to him. "Thank you but why?"
"I can't be having you fall into despair." Was all the White Wizard said before he vanished.
Koyomi began to open her eyes slowly.
"Ah Koyomi-chan." Rinko said.
Koyomi turned her eyes to look at Haruto. "You did it Haruto."
"Ah. It's over now." Haruto said.
