Takeo smiled and stood ready in a battle position, Kagutsuchi came towards them with black flames in his hands.
"Fulmine Cadens De Trorum. A Flash of Lightning to Cut through the Night, spring forth from my hands and Throttle my Enemy. White Lightning!"
"Practe Bigi Nar. A Flash of Lightning to Cut through the Night, spring forth from my hands and Throttle my Enemy. White Lightning"
"Ardoribus Sempiternis Oblivionis Devastantem. A River of Black Flames burning within the underworld, come forth from the pits of and destroy all things. Black Blaze!"
Takeo, Yue and Shiro fired off a conjoined blast of white lighting, while Kagutsuchi fired off a wave of black flames. In the middle of their rescue attempt. Several demons appeared around Negi, Setsuna and Asuna as they were prepared to rescue Konoka.
"Just a minute here! How many demons are here?" Asuna asked.
"They're using Konoka-Nee-San's Power!" Chamo shouted.
"They've spawned over a thousand demons." Negi answered, with nervous expression.
"You can play with these demons for a while." The Charmer declared, with an arrogant smile.
As the demons were charging at them, Negi held his hand out.
"Ras Tel Me Scir Magister. O Surging Storm of spring, surround us with your wind. Flowering Whirling Prison of Wind."
A large tempest barrier surrounded them, and keeping the demons out.
"This barrier will hold for 2-3 minutes." Negi stated. "All right! Let's hurry up and decide on a plan!" Chamo added.
"Adeat!"
Setsuna summoned her demon slaying blade.
"I will stay here and deal with the demons. You two use that time to go after Ojou-Sama." Setsuna commanded, as she prepared for her attack.
"Eeh/Setsuna-San!" Negi and Asuna called out.
"Please. Leave it to me, plus exterminating monster is a part of our business." Setsuna stated, with a slight smile on her face. "Plus, with the Demon Slaying Blade I got from Ta-Kun. It'll make things easy."
Asuna looked at her with a saddened expression.
"T-Then, I'm staying here too!" Asuna declared. "I can't leave Setsuna-San here by herself!"
At that moment both she and Negi started getting into an argument.
"Wait! This could be a good idea. Ane-San can unsummon these demons with her pactio, with both their weapons. They're our best bet against these demons." Chamo explained. As Chamo was explaining the plan in deeper detail, the wind barrier became to face.
Outside the demons were getting impatient.
"It's about time…"
"I've been waiting for this."
As the wind barrier was fading, Negi appeared from it holding his hand out.
"Iovis Tempestas Fulguriens!"
Negi fired off a large blast of lightning and wind, which distracted the demons long enough for him to fly towards Konoka.
"Crap! He got away!"
"He got 20 of us, Huh?
"Well, it looks like western mages aren't a joke after all."
One of the demons looked back and saw Asuna and Setsuna walking towards them.
"We'll be ok as long as we fight calmly. They're not as fearsome as they look."
"With my sword and Asuna-San's Fan…we'll be okay."
The demons looks at them with a curious expression.
"What brave little girls you are…"
Both Setsuna and Asuna charged at the demons with their weapons. At the altar the charm women was preparing to forcibly unleash Konoka's magic power and release a demons, which was sealed away by Nagi and Eishun eighteen years ago.
"God who dwells in the heavenly plains! God who is the source of everything, god who gives life! Gather, 80,000,000 gods of the heavenly city. Gather unto me!"
In the middle of the battle with the demons, both Asuna and Setsuna were pushing back the demons with their separate skills and techniques.
"W…We make a pretty good team."
"Yea."
"Hey, how about you teach me some Kendo when we get back to the Academy, Setsuna-San."
"Eh…Alright."
The demons were still stunned, because they were able to push back nearly half of their forces. In the middle of the battle with Kagutsuchi, Takeo was able to hold him with his martial arts and magic enhancements. But Takeo was filled with less injuries than Kagutsuchi.
"It seems you're able to at least put on a good show." Kagutsuchi stated, with a smirk on his face.
"Now, that I listened to you talking. You really sound like a spoiled brat." Takeo stated.
Takeo punched Kagutsuchi in the stomach, but that attack only made him laugh.
Fulmine Cadens De Trorum. O 100 Spirits of Lightning. Come together and Strike Mine Enemy. Magic Arrows, Series of Lightning."
Takeo fired off a large blast of lightning, which paralyzed Kagutsuchi's body.
"If you think, that…" Kagutsuchi stated, but was stopped after hearing a spell being cast.
"Practe Bigi Nar. Come Forth from the Void, O Thunder, and cut down my enemy! Axe of the Lightning God."
He turned around and saw Yue firing off a large blast of lightning, which sent him flying through a tree.
"Tsk, you little brats!" Kagutsuchi shouted, he stood up and started feeling the effects of the lightning attack. "Damn it, this body hasn't been adjusted right. If Nii-San didn't kill me that time!"
Takeo quickly grabbed Yue and jumped on top of Shiro.
"Quick Shiro, before the spell wears off!" Takeo commanded.
Shiro nodded and he flew away in a flash of lightning, Kagutsuchi glared at him as they left.
"YOU LITTLE BRATS!" Kagutsuchi shouted, his eyes started glowing with a red light.
Shiro's body started to lose his light. "Shiro! What's going on?" Yue asked.
Shiro transformed back into his pup form and they started plummeting towards the ground.
Takeo grabbed both Yue and Shiro and used his body to soften their landing.
"Takeo-San!" Yue called out, with a worried expression.
Takeo's face tensed up from the pain and he looked down and saw Shiro breathing heavily.
"Shiro, you used up too much electrical energy in that attack against him." Takeo said, as he held him in his arms.
"I need a little more time to regenerate." Shiro said, in a weakened tone.
"Yue-Chan, you were perfect." Takeo stated, as he sat up. "Uh…it was only because of everything you did for me." Yue responded, with a slight blush.
"I knew you'd make a great mage." Takeo stated. As they were smiling a cold sensation ran down their spines.
"I'm going to burn all three of you alive and send you to hell!" Kagutsuchi charged at him, firing off a large wave of black flames. Takeo quickly guarded both Yue and Shiro, with his own body.
"Aqua Virgines Conveniant Optamus Me. Water Current Barrier!"
A large barrier of water surrounded them blocking the black flames. Takeo looked and saw Nariko, Haruto, Haruki and Yukiko in front of them.
"Nii-San, I'm so happy you're alive!" Nariko stated, as she hugged him. "We went to that hotel and you weren't there." Haruki added, with a smirk on his face.
"But, we ran into Kaede-San, Mana-San and Fu-San. They told us everything they knew." Haruto stated, with a monotone.
"This man threatened Haruto-Sama…he will die." Yukiko stated coldly. She held her hand out and manifested a pure white katana, with a snowflake-shaped tsuba.
Once the water barrier vanished, Kagutsuchi smiled at the lives that were about to end.
"I'll take great pleasure of ending the children of the Narukami Clan." Kagutsuchi stated, with a sadistic grin.
"Aqua Virgines Conveniant Optamus Me…"
"Congregabo Spiritus Woton Gelare Omnia…"
"Congregabo Purgatorio Flammis Hostes Occideris…"
"Yukimura Sword Technique…"
As Nariko, Haruki, Haruto and Yukiko were preparing their attack, Takeo's silver dog tag was thrown towards Kagutsuchi.
"That's what you came for right? Just take it can get out of here." Takeo demanded as he glared at him.
"But, Nii-San. You can't use magic without with. Plus dad gave you that." Haruto stated, with a confused expression.
