Chapter 13: Battle of Darkness and Void

(Saito)

Clash!

Slash!

Bang!

This is getting me nowhere. I've been fighting this one girl for over an hour now. Her name is Angela S. She has pitch black hair and crimson red eye. Her outfit was a black pair of pants, a white shirt, and a black jacket. But don't let her looks get you; she's at Agnès' level of swordsmanship. Also I know she has to be a [Khaos Bridage] member because she has the [Sacred Gear] [Sword Birth]. So does that mean she's part of the [Hero Faction]? Well, not that it matters which team is she's on. I'll better her anyways. But still, she really is at Agnès' level. The only reason I haven't been killed yet is because Gasper keeps freezing her, but she quickly breaks out of it.

"You're pretty good, but I can tell that most of your power seems come from those runes on your hand. You were born a normal human."

After she said that she jumped back. When she was at a good distance from me she made her sword disappear, and then gave me a dangerous smile.

"You're nothing but a powerless nobody without those runes. How about I show you just how special I really am."

"Don't tell me you have another [Sacred Gear]!"

Her smile seemed to get deadlier.

"[Sacred Gears] aren't the only thing that people are born with that makes them special."

Right after she said that a dark and creepy aura started to surround her.

"Devourer him."

With that, the darkness started to move towards me. No problem, I'll just have Derf…

"[Myozthirirn], what out! That darkness Can devourer anything! Including stuff that can absorb magic!"

""WHAT!""

Both me and Derf yelled at the same time. Just then, the darkness stopped, but only for a second.

"Amusing, your friend thought that anything didn't include time."

It can devourer even time! I need to get out of the way. Right when the darkness was about to touch me, I used all the power in the [Gandalfr] runes and jumped out of the way. The darkness attacked right where I was standing. When it cleared up, there was a deep hole right where I was standing. That could have been me. I really need to thank that lightning dragon later. Angela looked from the hole to me.

"Tell me, what do you think about my [Power of Darkness]. As you already know, it's a darkness that devourers everything in its path. Not even the strongest of defenses' can protect you from it. By the way, I can control my power so well that they took my greatest ancestor's nickname, the [Prince of Darkness] and changed it to the [Princess of Darkness] for me. Now then, let's continue."

With that said, she started to summon her darkness again. This isn't good at all. I need to think of something, but the only thing I can think of that might be a match for that darkness is [Void]. After all, it's a complete unknown. But neither Louise nor Tiffa are here right now. But what can I do. Well, I can just keep dodging while I think about it, or so I thought.

"Just to make sure you can't dodge it again, I'll make it a larger strike force."

With that said the darkness she sent at me covered the entire tunnel. Looks like I'm dead. Just then, the darkness started to slow down.

"Sempai, please get out of here! I'll hold it back as long as I can!"

I looked and saw that Gasper was standing next to me. Now you choose to be brave! Damn it! I won't leave you behind. If it comes to this then I'll just die here with Gasper fighting…

[What an interesting boy you are. Much different from the previous familiars.]

Did I just hear someone talking in my head?

[Don't worry. I'm here to help you. And you should be honored. It's not every day I help someone. Well, not since I gave that one guy some of my power. I think his name was Brimir some and another.]

Brimir! As in Founder Brimir! The original [Void Mage]!

[Come to think of it, he did call my powers [Void Magic]. He even gave me a cute nickname, [Void Spirit]. Anyways, we can talk about that later. Right now we need to hurry. I'll take care of the darkness and you take down that hybrid.]

Well, it's better than nothing. I tightened my grip on Derf and charged forward.

"Let's do thing, Derf!"

"Its suicide, but I'm with you, partner!"

As we charged forward, a bright light appeared from all three of my runes, surrounding me in a barrier. As the darkness touched the light, it disappeared. I jumped and landed on top of the Angela. I held Derf at her face. She looked at me with a shocked expression.

"Don't move."

Gasper came walking beside me.

"Sempai, how did you…"

"I'll tell you about it later. Right now we need to think of what to do with her."

I pointed at Angela, who was smiling for some reason.

"So that was the power of [Void]. It is powerful. But I had enough with this. I'll be taking my leave now."

"Imposible. I have you pinned down. How do you think you're going to esca…"

Then it hit me. She still has that.

[Balance Breaker]!

Once she shouted that I jumped back just in time, while pulling Gasper with me. A bunch of swords stared to gather together, and combined into a dragon. Because of the [Myozthirirn] runes I can tell what it is. [Forbidden Demonic Dragon], a Sub-Species Balance Breaker that creates a dragon made up of [Demon Swords].

"Now then, I'll be taking my leave."

With that said, the dragon covered her with its wings and disappeared. I can tell that she's going to be trouble later on. Well, I better get that dragon freed.

XXXXXXXXXXXXX

After hours of annoying hacking at the chains with Derf (which he complained about), I finally got those chains off the lighting dragon. Gasper was hiding behind me. Well, that's Gasper for you. Anyways, back to what was going on. The dragon looked at me, and dropped him head.

"Thank you for saving me, [Myozthirirn]. Now I see why the spirits trust the [Void Familiars] so much."

"Come on, don't say that. Your making me blush."

Well, I better stop thinking about that. We need to get out of here. As I was thinking about this, the earth started to lift up.

"[Myozthirirn], I see you managed to free the lightning dragon, and got rid of that annoying hybrid, who was preventing me from getting rid of this dragon. Now then, I'll be able to get him out, you too. But before that, I believe I owe you the knowledge as to the location of [Fire Spirit]. He's in the [Valley of Hestia], Romalia. Now then, this might take awhile since that darkness did do some damage here."

With that, we were surrounded in a bright light. Well, guess that means mission accomplished. Wonder who Issei and the other are doing?

XXXXXXXXXXXXX

(Issei)

This isn't good. Both Kiba and Xenovia are having trouble against this Siegfried guy. It was going fine uptime he reviled his [Sacred Gear] [Twice Critical]. Now he's using three [Demon Swords] against them, and Xenovia isn't that good with [Durandal] while Kiba's [Holy-Demonic Swords] just keep on breaking. I even gave Xenovia [Ascalon] to help her, but that's not much help. He's too good. I wanted to go and help, but Buchou stopped me saying that this is their fight. I wish Sempai was here. He'd ignore both Buchou and Louise-sama and take that guy one, but Gawain would get in the way. He really seems to enjoy fighting Sempai. Well, let's just hope that they can last a bit longer. You can do it, Kiba! Xenovia!

So that's where I'll end the thirteenth chapter. Anyways, I kind of gave a hint as to what the S stands for in Angela S. Also, the battle with her is over and now I'll be moving on to the fight between the team of Yuuto and Xenovia against Siegfried. Well, see you next time. Crimson Dragon Emperor.
