Raya And the Last Dragon 2: Justice Harbinger Chapter 27: Not Only an Obligation, a Black Adam + Raya and the Last Dragon Crossover fanfic

The next day and the forests of Gan-Ju, between the tall fir trees, two opponents were now racing each other. Leading furiously a brown-red millipede and a brown armadillo, come both Tuk Tok and Krun Win were sped on by their friends, they did not try to compete with each other, neither of them ever surpassed the other, neither tried to be better as they traversed the dense they ran and walked across the meadows intersecting the forest and were now heading east over a large rock that formed a sort of intersection between the firs both Krun Win and Tuk Tuk were playing more with each other, quite unlike Raya and Lao Bin trying to outdo each other.

After some disappointment, Raya wanted to be alone, to see for herself if the Empress had left the valley, and to return home as soon as possible, leaving behind what turned out to be only an illusion for her, and the one who was the cause of everything rode beside her on a millipede, racing with a fierce black-haired warrior in a leather vest, Lao Bin in a brown slatted armour, rushed his friend and the strong wind set his usually lying black ponytail in motion, trying to understand why his friend was suddenly so stubborn, why she rejected his gift when he told the truth.

When Raya tried her hardest to overtake Lao, to be better, to be alone, Lao Bin urged his millipede to fulfill a given word, a given oath, she would do anything to stop the danger, the arrow, the blade, the trap, that was his great motivation but the biggest one seemed to run away from his eyes all the time, but not what was in front of his eyes.

Lao Bin, guiding Krun Win next to Raya, watched the thick fir bushes vigilantly, expecting the worst in this place, when a large rock cut through the forest creating an almost straight path, this place in itself would be an ideal place to prepare a trap, but his companion was constantly blinded by the job she experienced a few days ago.

- faster Tuk Tuk, it's my mission. Said Raya, taking off with even greater speed, but only for a moment, because firstly, the Tuk Tuk slowed down quickly and Krun Win, rushing past, adapted to the armadillo's momentum.

- well what's Tuk Tuk, you don't want to be better. She asked Raya but received no positive answer, Tuk Tuk, in denial of his friend's words, adapted to the movements and speed of the millipede so that neither of them was able to outperform the other.

- All right, if that's what you want. Raya said trying not to look at Lao Bin who was riding next to her.

- Raya, please, don't you have enough, tell me what's really bothering you. Lao Bon asked, guiding Krun Win close to the armadillo.

- if you don't understand, I won't explain it to you, except you are not bound by any oath today because I release you from it, you hear!. Raya shouted, landing her anger on the samurai in simple and harsh words.

- you don't understand, you can't do it, I promised your dad, besides. Lao Bin said as he suddenly fell silent and stopped Krun Win in place.

Hearing the last words of the samurai and Raya, she stopped the Tuk Tuk looking at Lao Bin descending to the ground and putting his ear to the ground.

- what else?. she asked Raya.

- it's not important. Lao Bin said listening to the sounds.

- it doesn't matter!, so go down!. Raya shouted, urging the Tuk Tuk to leave as soon as possible, but as if angry, the Tuk Tuk didn't move even an inch.

- well, what's up, and you against me?, asked Raya, getting down from the armadillo's back, staring into his eyes and face expressing only annoyance at her own behavior.

- Well, what's wrong with you, and what about me?. She asked Raya and Tuk Tok merely nodded.

- Tuk Tuk how can you, what times, what have I lived to see, what do you hear, Mr. Lao. she asked Raya, folding her arms in front of her, looking annoyed at the increasingly frightened look on the samurai's face.

Suddenly, Lao Bin rushed forward, knocking the surprised Raya to the ground, and after a while everyone was pushed off by a strong explosion, everything exploded, knocking down the surprised armadillo and the millipede for a few seconds.

- what was that. Raya asked, raising her head.

- these are probably the archers of the silver legionnaires. Said Lao Bin in a whisper, holding Raya to the ground, but she did not want to listen, much less be saved by the samurai.

- let go, don't be so familiar, besides, I can handle myself. Said disgusted Raya come when she grabbed Lao's hand suddenly stopped until there was another strong explosion.

Further arrows with a navy blue tip of the stones shining with the navy blue power hit in front of and behind the backs of the lying people, everything suddenly fell silent when the first silver legionnaire emerged from the thicket of bushes, the first swordsman with a katana and a large shield and with him another silver hoplite with a long spear and with a great shining shield, the two warriors faced each other and chose their opponents, walking calmly towards the two rising flesh-and-blood opponents.

- they are legionnaires, so after all, we were all fools to believe that the Empress had left the valley. Raya said as she stood up and drew her yellow hilt sword, ready to fight just like Tuk Tuk and Krun Win.

- Raya, listen to me, we don't stand a chance against him, we have to run. Said Lao Bin trying to talk some sense but the fierce warrior would not listen to him instead Raya screamed loudly and rushed at the swordsman with a long katana.

Raya jumped high and hit first the shield and then the long katana, but both blows did not bring the slightest result, everything was easily deflected as well as herself hit by the swordsman and his quick turn ended with a strong shield hit, hit Raya like a pole fell far to the ground, and the nearby Tuk Tuk and Krun Win suddenly charged the two opponents.

Tuk Tuk charging with all his might tried to ram the steel opponent, but his attempt also turned out to be reflected just like himself, even though using all his strength in the charge he hit the unprotected legionnaire when he uncovered his shield, the Armadillo practically bounced off the legionary's steel chest and the fearsome legionnaire swung his shield again, first hitting it to the right to finish his blow with a strong swinging blow to the right, Tuk Tuk hit once and the second was literally thrown off the ground before flipping over and crashing to the ground and rocky surfaces.

Seeing this, Krun Win jumped at the second legionary holding a long spear, but his result was the same, the legionary easily hit the first with his shield, reflecting the entire momentum of the huge seven-meter millipede, then the hoplite beat his shield into the rock, grabbed the millipede's head and threw it at the armadillo with great force, smashing a huge millipede against the armadillo, it looked as if these two creatures were made only of paper, the hoplite seeing with his navy blue eyes the success and the overthrown two creatures without emotion pulled out his shield and focused all his attention on the rising warrior and running into the line of punch Lao Bin.

- Lao, I can handle them myself, get out of my way. Raya said as she staggered to her feet.

- don't you understand, they can't be defeated by any enemy, we have no chance against them, you must and flee back to Buelion, I will stop them. Lao Bin said, throwing himself at the hoplite at the warrior's dismay and conflicting thoughts.

Raya, stumbling over her leg, wanted to do something, help, but she couldn't do anything when the hoplite and the swordsman swung the katana and the spear, both the spear and the katana easily and deadly precision deflected the samurai's two blows, pushing him back, the power of both legionnaires' blows was so great that they easily sent Lao Bin to the ground, thus causing a slight crack in the rock, Raya, seeing two legionnaires marching on her friend, did not know what to do, whether to run to Buelion or save someone she had failed and it was not about betrayal the empress.

- Lao, don't break up!. Raya shouted, standing in the way of two legionnaires, ready for the last fight.

Everything was suddenly interrupted when more legionnaires came out of the woods forming a great circle, Raya looked around her at the rising tuk Tuk, Krun Win who are growing stared at the legionaries and their impassable cordon, all the legionaries, both Hoplites, swordsmen and standing in the rear positions the archers drew their shields, weapons, bows ready to end their existence but instead they stood and stood and waited for something as Lao Bin stood up and knew what was really going on, or rather who had ordered them to stop fighting.

- I know what's going on here, they're looking for me. Lao Bun said he was afraid to pick up his katana.

- you, but why, who. Raya asked as she stared at the huddle of shields, swords, and spears.

- You are a traitor, today I will judge you, Ronin. A voice boomed everywhere, the familiar voice of the samurai commander Ran Hon.

- Ran Hon, so you could have expected it, you will never let go right!. Lao Bin shouted as he stepped in front of Raya, watching one of the ranks make room for a great samurai in shining silver armor with a new mask on his face and a large two-handed katana in his hand entering the heart of the circle.

- I never let go and never forgive betrayal, your oath is sacred, no samurai betrays his emperor, Ronin. Ran Hon said angrily grabbing the hilt of the katana with both hands.

- Ran Hon, listen to me, you don't have to serve madmen, you don't have to do that, do you really have to keep your oath above your life, does it have to be more important to you than anything, the Empress has almost led to destruction and you follow her blindly. Lao Bin said, stretching out both hands as he sheathed his katana.

- keep quiet, man without honor, if you say so, you have no honour, I thought, I had faith that you are crazy, but you did and still do it on purpose, there is nothing in my eyes that could stop my blade, today get ready on judgment, I will take your life, and I will watch you die in a long, honorless death!. Ran Hon shouted ready to fight.

- Ran Hon, I ask you for one thing, if you want me dead, I will give it to you, but promise me one thing. Said Lao Bon ready for anything.

- enough, I don't have to listen to you and I won't promise you anything, I know what you want and know one thing, when you die you will watch your friends die, it will be next. Ran Hon said pointing his katana at Raya.

- Leah, I'll help you. Said Raya trying to help Lao Bin but he pushed her aside and pulled out his katana ready for battle.

- Raya, it's not your fight, it's mine and mine alone, if he wants my head he has to reach for it, but you still have a chance to save yourself. Lao bin said.

- as if we are surrounded.

- I know, but if I win, Ran Hon, tell me if I win or your legionnaires let us go. Lao Bin asked.

- if that happens, so be it, my Head will take their lives in exchange, but not yours, you will die today anyway, because my legionnaires will not give you a chance, now archers, aim at them, keep an eye on them, but if I die, just kill Lao Bin. Ran Hon said, agreeing to only one condition, and the legionnaires struck their shields ready to obey their commander's order.

- Lao, you can't, you hear what you promised my father. Raya said.

- enough, I know what I'm doing, if you get out of this this way and you'll be safe, I'll find out where. Lao Bin said without looking back.

- I do not agree to this, today you are also blind, why only by the oath you gave to my father you want to risk your life. she asked Raya, grabbing her sword even though many archers aimed their bows at her, but before she made a move, Lao Bin's blade knocked the weapon out of her hand.

Raya looked in shock at the blank stare of the samurai and at the blade shining in front of her knocking the weapon from her hand to see the archers lowering their bows, after all Raya retreated to Tuk Tuk and Krun Win knowing that when the samurai promises something he will fulfill everything to the last word .

- understand this, since he promised your father, he swore an oath, it's written in the blood that will spill today, and you scumbag, you were obliged to serve the Empress, then you should serve her, instead you betrayed the sacred new oath, how can you, if I myself today he did not say a word, he ordered me to kill your friends. Ran Hon said angrily.

- fortunately for me today your old one has been bound by oath and I know very well that you won't follow in my footsteps, you see Ran Hon I can also use your weaknesses against you!. Said Lao Bin raising his voice on the last words and showing a confident smile.

For a moment Ran Hon muttered something under his breath but it all ended with a loud laugh shaking everyone, Ran Hon lowered his blade but only for a moment extending his left hand to the ronin.

- you think that you are taking advantage of something or someone, cha cha cha cha, you are predictable, if you believe it, you are stupid.

- what do you mean, Ran Hon, what does it mean.

- and this ronin that the Empress will not leave the valley until she wins, though plan A has been ruined, now we are free, and nothing will bind our hands, soon my mistress will reach for indescribable power, and our friend has already set the naive fools in motion, now just wait, ha, how I regret to kill you now, because I know that the vision of seeing my mistress win would cause you more suffering, but my blade will suffice today, that's all I can promise. Ran Hon said, raising the blade high again.

- wait, what!, what do you mean, tell us. Raya screamed in horror.

- I must not explain myself to you today, never, and now die, traitor, die, ronin, man without honor!. Ran Hon shouted, throwing himself with great impetus on Lao Bin.

Ran Hon kicked out three powerful swings, striking each time from a different angle, swinging not only with his arm but also with his whole body, moving forward every step of the way, his quick and above all powerful blows almost knocked Lao Bin his katana out of his hand, and another series of three blows chipped one-handed katana making a small cut on the tip of the blade, Lao Bin expects a lot because he knew the samurai master perfectly what his opponent was doing he could not predict, the blows of the masked samurai in heavy armor were fast and too strong for anyone to cope with such a strong storm of blows at the beginning .

Lao Bin almost knocked backwards he stumbled back regaining his balance, Lao Bin rested on his opponent taking deep breaths, his opponent walking steadily at him didn't seem to be even tired or sweaty, instead Ran Hon proceeded to another series of punches this time with a quick cuts with full finishing turns, each time his blows thundered in the ears of a terrified warrior, Raya see flashes of a two-handed katana trembled as she hit her target with precision and strength and the spinning opponent, finishing another series of blows, twisted the blade around himself, pushing Lao once again out of balance.

Ran Hon, grabbing the katana with one right hand, entered a quick circle avoiding the first attack by Lao Bin, deflecting his blows with ease at the fourth blow, standing with his back to the opponent and pulling the blade behind his back and when the dream made a quick turn, his blade again cut the air right before the terrified look of Lao Bin who at the last moment dodged the blade and fell with a bang on a hard rock cutting this part of the forest in half.

Ran Hon wasn't going to play this time, instead, instead of showing his superiority, he grabbed the blade and hit it stabbing and hitting the rock, Lao Bin seeing the flash of the blade rushing towards his stomach, he rolled to the right, sticking to his feet and getting ready to counterattack, Lao Bin grabbing the katana hilt with both hands and hit it several times with all his strength, but again Ran Hon, making a turn, blocked each of his attacks holding a two-handed katana with one right hand and withholding all the momentum on one hand and Lao Bin pressing on him with his whole body, Ran Hon moved legs and pushed with his whole body, throwing his opponent three meters away, Lao Bin, almost losing his balance again, moved back five meters and when he managed to stop and grab the katana with both hands, his eyes saw a running samurai with his face always covered.

Ran Hon like a furious beast ran to the right then to the left each time his blade rushed forward and when he stopped he made a quick and sweeping turn, come on the blade was close this time Lao Bin managed to retreat to the right distance but each time he failed managed to land even a simple blow, Ran Hon spun his whole body again and began to charge with the blade outstretched in front of him, the great two-handed dreamblade struck this time from a suddenly stopped rotation, hitting Lao Bin's blade and almost knocking him from the surprised Samurai's hand as the blade snapped holding only his left hand for three seconds, Lao Bin was unable to do anything, neither to pull the katana up nor to block another quick thrust followed by a succession of quick thrusts.

Ran Hon taking quick steps forward swung his katana back and forth, striking right and left each time, the blade rushing to its main target which was Lao Bin taking faster and more panicked steps backwards, Lao bin practically was through all the time on the defensive he could only evade and try to block another frantic series of quick thrusts as the blade swirled around him Lao Bin was forced to backtrack making a larger and larger circle because behind his back he had huge silver shields bristling with swords and spears and ready to kill him the silver legionnaires, come on, death was written for him anyway, he wanted to do everything so that his friends could survive, leave safe and sound, until Raya, looking at the fight, turned her head from time to time, not wanting to see the evil samurai's blade almost reach the main goal.

When the blade pushing like ten spades suddenly stopped Lao Bin could only see the powerful blow of the window towards him Ran Hon made a powerful swing taking a step forward again and hitting the blade blocking the blow Lao, another bang and bark shook everyone and watching Tuk Tuk as well as Krun Win, but most of all Lao Bin losing the weapon from his hand and hitting the ground once again, this time the rock he landed on cracked creating a spreading crack and Lao's blade was between him and the standing Raya.

When Ran Hon raised his blade high again, Raya trembled because on the one hand she had a view of her friend's approaching end and on the other hand a chance to help him but it also meant breaking the rule and the end of everything and the steel archers seeing her first move immediately took her in their sights so just like Lao Bin.

- don't do that, please!. Lao Bin shouted.

Raya did not want to stand and watch as Ran Hon hits his katana for the second time, driving the tip of the blade into the rocks for the second time and the crevice that was forming, Lao Bon turning around and running almost on all fours grabbed his blade and got up ready for the next round.

Ran Hon again without wasting any time and without showing the slightest hint of fatigue again began to strike, this time only from one direction from top to bottom, each time striking with such force that the defending Lao bin neither had time to counterattack nor had the strength to continue fighting , overwhelmed under the power of the furious samurai's blows, Lao Bin knelt on his right knee constantly overwhelmed by the brutal attack of Ran Hon, and again only the clash of weapons and the whistling of weapons could be heard, and even the sparks produced as the blades collided with each other could be seen.

Ran Hon was hitting more and more furiously and his impetus was still growing stronger and Lao Bin, almost unable to fight, fell to the other knee, so the kneeling warrior defended himself against the constant barrage of blows until suddenly Ran Hon stopped and kicked Lao Bin straight in the head knocking him down Earth.

- no! Lao!. Raya screamed for help but was grabbed by Krun Win and stopped by Tuk Tuk.

Ran Hon, having his opponent under him, began to mercilessly attack the mountains again with powerful blows, each time Lao Bin was forced to make quick turns now to the right, once to the right, and the great blade stuck deep into the rock, creating larger and deeper cracks.

- you won't find an honorable death here, traitor. Ran Hon said, striking for the last time and hitting the hilt of the sword held by the hated ronin with both hands.
Lao Bin looked at the mask covering his opponent's face and with a great grimace, taking his leg back, he hit the legs of the great samurai with all his strength, the steel greaves stopped most of the blows, the hit to the legs made Ran Hon backtrack trying to quickly regain his balance.

When Ran Hon took a few steps back, Lao Bin quickly got up from the ground, but seeing his opponent ready to fight, he knew that he would not win this duel, that everything he was fighting for was already lost, suddenly the wind looked at Lao Bin gently stroking his head and black ponytail and with the wind a whisper appeared in the eyes of the surprised samurai.

- throw him off balance. The words swirled with the wind for the first time.

- use his strength against him. The wind swirled a second time.

- surprise him when he is overconfident. The wind swirled for the last time and Lao Bin, lowering the blade, looked at his opponent, remembering all the current fight, the fight that Ran Hon fought with the newcomer and how he fought when he was trained by him.

Lao Bin, seeing another charge and an attack conducted with his hands and his whole body, quickly grabbed the katana with his right hand only and waited for the first series of blows, and as expected Ran Hon struck three times making quick and powerful swings, taking a step forward each time, this time Lao Bin, following the advice of the unknown, stepped back each time and when the last blow to the right fell, Lao Bin quickly pulled the blade, hitting the running katana for which Ran Hon was not ready, suddenly Ran Hon hit with his sword spun uncontrollably and drew back by one step to see Lao Bin turn left quickly and hit the target.

Ran Hon backed away with all his strength but it was still too late, Lao Bin's blade hit the lamellar shoulder pad, cutting it into pieces, Ran Hon looking at the damage on his left shoulder, growled like a rabid dog and struck again several times, taking faster and faster steps each time ahead.

Lao Bin again waited for the best moment to strike, stepping back rhythmically until the fourth blow and the blade passing his head Lao Bin struck again with all his strength first hitting the opponent's blade, which caused the surprised Ran Hon to fall to his left knee and try to save himself again with a sharp jerk back, Lao Bin's blade struck again despite his opponent's best efforts, this time shattering the right shoulder pad.

For the first time, it was Ran Hon who fell to the ground, contributing to another crack, and Raya, watching the fight, jumped up cheering with all her might.

- that's right, you can do it, just believe in it, believe in yourself!. Raya screamed.

Ran Hon got up slowly, unable to understand how anyone could defeat him today, his shoulder pads were already shattered but it wasn't over, Ran Hon started to charge like a running bull, waving his blade in front of him, this time Lao Bin didn't back down an inch step instead waited, stood waiting for the first blow to fall and when it did Lao Bin leaned back watching calmly as the piercing blade pierced above his head, Lao Bin taking advantage of this one moment deliberately fell on his back and struck with his sword hitting the steel boots and greaves breaking their surfaces and penetrating a short distance.

Even though the katana penetrated a short distance, Ran Hon first screamed and then fell to the ground on his right knee, and when he gathered all his thoughts and saw his opponent getting up, he screamed again and lunged with another flurry of punches trying to stab his opponent, and this time Lao Bin instead of standing waiting you grow up he started charging at the running Ran Hon.

When both opponents were three meters in front of each other, Lao Bin made a quick jump jumping over the speeding blade, hitting with all his strength hitting the steel mask.

There was a mighty bang followed by thunder, shocked Han Hon fell to the ground and his half mask fell apart in front of him revealing his greatest disgrace, his squint eye and freckled face, angry and shocked Ran Hon grabbed his face with his left hand trying to hide his shame until it all subsided as he looked at his adversary ready to keep fighting him.

- how could you, you wretched rat, you stinker, you will pay me for this!. screamed Rah Hon, trembling with his right good eye, making a strange expression and curvature of his face.

Ran Hon struck again with all his strength again began to overwhelm Lao Bin with mad blows from one direction and Lao Bin quickly fell to his right knee stopping the opponent's blade, Ran Hon began to push Lao Bin with all his strength making another strange grimace on his face and Lao Bin was dented into the ground, he began to bend only to suddenly swing the blade and himself to the side.

Shocked, Ran Hon saw his zoster pushed by brute force hit only the rock set in the trap and Lao Bin kneeling next to him hit him with all his strength with his sword hitting him straight in the chest, the katana gleamed, the thunder shook everyone and Ran Hon with broken armor fell over the once again to the ground on broken rocks, failing again.

- she knew you'd make it, come on, Lao, oh no, Lao, listen to me, they'll kill you!. Raya shouted as the archers from behind the ranks stepped forward and, according to the leader's words, targeted Lao Bin as their main and only target.

- I have to do this, for you, for you, and it's not about your father, it's about you. Said Lao Bin reconciled with his life but not Raya when she heard the last words of the samurai ready to die at the hands of the steel archers.

- Lao, please be careful. Raya screamed.

At the same time, Ran Hon, picking up a handful of sand and gravel from the ground, threw it into his opponent's eyes, Lao Bin screamed, grabbing his eyes, and Ran Hon jumped out, throwing his blade down the hole.

- this is for treason, traitor!. Ran Hon shouted, dragging the blade down, having nothing to do with what he had done and the scream of terrified Raya who thought she was seeing a brave samurai for the last time in her life.

The blade struck but was unable to do anything but stop on the mighty steel just as Ran Hon himself charged with all his might but his strength didn't even make the slightest move, because this time his opponent was someone of indescribable strength.

Hearing the impact, Lao Bin stepped back, but when he managed to clear his eyes, he saw the newcomer in front of him, as it turned out, Lucas stopped the Ran Hon blade on his trident and, hitting the ground with the golden trident, also stuck the jagged blade of the two-handed katana into the rocks.

- you!, how dare you, it was an honorable duel!. Ran Hon shouted with all his might.

- and you betrayed your honor by throwing sand in your eyes, acted like a typical ronin, and what do you know about honor. Lucas Nowak said calmly, staring intensely into the crooked eye of the furious Samurai.

- how dare you compare me to them, you will pay me for it!. shouted Ran Hon and struck three times with his left hand first on the head, then twice on the chest and the blue shirt with the geometric symbol, each time his fist bounced off Lucas and his glove cracked like the middle finger bone.

Ran Hon screamed loudly looking at his hand and broken middle finger and Lucas using one second pulled the trident breaking the two-handed katana in half and making a turn hit the trident knocking the furious samurai off his feet, Ran Hon fell with a bang and hit the broken rocks and Lucas dematerializing the trident he addressed everyone except the legionnaires.

- on the ground, because it will be loud!. Lucas shouted.

Raya, Lao Bin, Tuk Tuk and Krun Win fell to the ground according to the words of the newcomer from another world, Lucas, having the way open, directed the first power over the lying Ran Hon, crossed his arms, released waves of heat light destroying the first of the four ranks of silver legionnaires, when the sharpest of swords was not even able to chip the silver shields and armor, the luminous wave practically blew away everything that stood in its way, the power flashed over the lying Ran Hon and with a terrifying bang hit the three rows, devastating everything, turning the silver bodies into broken small shards.

As the first group of silver legionnaires was virtually annihilated, Lucas soared into the sky above them all, and the silver archers began firing, sending the first and second volleys of their arrows, the first hitting the floating target, and as the black cloud faded, Lucas stared down with only a small bruise visible on his forehead, which was rather strange, because nothing could hurt him, the second volley was fired but this time everything was blown out of the way by one turn of the shining lasso, Lucas twisted the Lasso and with the shining sword attached to its end, devastating and dropping from the sky each arrow himself, quickly sheathing the lasso and replacing it with a quickly materialized Mini Gun.

Lucas pressed the trigger, the weapon fired with a terrifying bang, bullets like thunderbolts smashed into dust successive ranks of steel legionnaires and their steel from right to left flew in space, scattered like confetti, and a powerful cannonade shook everything, even the rock that cracked at an ever greater distance .

Lucas didn't waste any time and looked the other way and shot with his laser gaze leading the laser beam from right to left in the time equal to a second devastating the next ranks, the laser not only annihilated but melted everything it hit, shields, armor, weapons and another volley of bullets that could not even leave the drawn bows.

Lucas raised his right hand, the thunder from the clear sky was pulling it down, he hurled a powerful beam of thunderbolts that first broke the last three ranks of legionnaires, secondly scattered shrapnel twenty meters high and thirdly shook the ground, starting the process of cracking and collapsing hundreds of tons of rocks cutting through the forest at a distance two kilometers.

At first Raya was shocked by the strength and effectiveness of the newcomer's power, now seeing how the rock was also cracking under Lao Bin's feet and with her own legs she looked at the falling rocks into a deep abyss and the fleeing Ran Hon who was running straight behind Lao Bin.

- Lao, please, run away, quickly!. Raya screamed but it was too late the heavy rocks fell down and Lao Bin grabbed the leg by Rah Hon and the efficient left hand disappeared somewhere behind the collapsing rocks.

- run away!. Lao Bin shouted before disappearing behind the crumbling rocks.

- Lao!. Raya shouted trying to run towards the collapsed rocks but she was never able to, first by Krun Win and Tuk Tuk holding her back and then by the rushing images as Lucas grabbed each one separately and carried them like lightning to safety.

In less than three seconds, Lucas, speeding like thunder, carried Tuk Tuk, Krun Win and Raya to safety away from the collapsing rocks, and stood against everything trying to stop the terrified warrior.

- why, why did you do it, why did you let Lao!. Raya screamed, tugging at Lucas's blue shirt, tearing at him with his clenched hand, releasing the first tear from her eyes and the sight of them revealed a big smile on his face, which of course nobody liked.

- and why are you laughing monster, I thought Sisu believed in you. Angry Raya said, withdrawing her right hand and grabbing the sword, but her attempt was quickly stopped because, first of all, she knew and saw that even a sharp one could not hurt the newcomer, and secondly, she felt guilty herself.

- Sisu believes in me?. Lucas asked because he wasn't expecting that, his eyes widening.

- Yes, and probably wrong. Raya said through clenched teeth.

- and you're too fast, even though you're right in your verdict, look behind you first. Lucas whispered in Raya's ear.

Raya looked back along with Tuk Tuk and Krun Win to see what turned out to be a slightly confused samurai, Lao Bin was standing three meters behind them with eyes slightly confused as was his unsteady step.

- man, it was a ride. Lao Bin said.

- Lao!. She shouted Raya and together with the armadillo and the millipede hugged as much as she could the man whom not so long ago very disliked.

- I thought, I believed, Lao you, Lucas!. Raya screamed suddenly when she felt, saw him getting too close to Lao and his mouth.

There were many contradictions and uncertainties, but one thing was absolutely certain, if not for Lucas, she and everyone else would have died today, Raya, leading Krun Win, Tuk Tuk and Lao Bin, approached the newcomer in a blue shirt and black pants looking at the collapsed rocks and what a moment emerged from the rubble, the only hand of a samurai, Ran Hon's hand clenched for the last time and everything fell silent, this made Lucas quickly pass over four close friends and their words of gratitude, because for him it was not over yet.

- Lucas, I'm sorry, thank you, you've done too much for us today. Raya said.

- You saved our lives, you helped me fight, you gave me advice, didn't you?. Lao Bin asked to which Lucas merely nodded as he proceeded to chop down the tree grabbing his shining sword.

- for a samurai like me, it will always be an unpayable debt. Lao Bin added, bowing his head before the newcomer felling a large tree.

- okay, okay, now is not the time for gratitude, I heard the words of that collapsed man, Ran Hon threatened a lot and I'm sure his Empress will put words into action, I have to take you to Buelion and now get on because I have no way to carry you alone, too bad, because if you were Raya, I could have held you in my arms. Lucas said, winking at the blushing warrior and, like her, expecting the reaction that followed almost immediately.

How lucky we are to be four. Lao Bin grunted suddenly irritated, muttering something under his breath, thus making Raya think that what Lao did for her was more than just oaths.

- all right, all right, jump on the tree, I'll take you to the city. Lucas said as he shared a twenty-foot tree stump with its branches cut off for everyone to see.

- right now, how?. Lao Bin asked, but Raya quickly overtook him, jumping in the middle of the stump first.

- Lao come on, trust our friend, it can be fun. Raya said.

- I don't know, but how are you going to transport us there?. Lao Bin asked, sitting right behind the warrior ready to go.

- normally by air, now hold on tight and don't be afraid of what you will see and feel. Lucas said as the last one after Tuk Tuk, the great millipede Krun Win took his place.

Lucas, with four passengers on board, lifted a large log like a feather and, catching it on his right shoulder, flew up over the forest to the city of Buelion, and his four passengers, initially frightened, quickly succumbed to the breathtaking sight.

- it's beautiful, look Lao, the whole forest is under our feet, man, how I envy the wind dragons today, Verana has such a view every day. Said Raya, enchanted by the sight of the forest and the sky as she rode the great log to the city of Buelion.

- amazing, this is amazing, Mr. Lucas, tell us why. Lao Bin asked, looking down at the newcomer holding a log and flying over the forest.

- yes, I know, I was supposed to step aside but it doesn't mean that today I can't be a hero for someone again, and thank you for telling me about Sisu and her faith, maybe today you will believe too, because I'm not going to stand aside and to watch the tyrant's servants beat you and you Lao I'm proud that you used my advice in the fight against Ran Hon come on myself I'm a little angry with myself that I didn't help him and I did it on purpose but it must have been that he was a lost man, not him could have helped.

- I'm proud that you helped me in the fight, you saved my life several times in one day, remember don't blame yourself for that, I know who Ran Hon was, even after that he would still want to kill us all, Lucas probably never we'll make it to you. Lao Bin said before Lucas quickly interrupted him.

- come on, I'm doing it because I want to be a hero for someone, that's why I have my powers and the biggest stupidity would be if I didn't do anything, I'm not like that and now stick to it. Lucas said, rushing between the clouds until everyone saw the city of Buelion, or rather its ruins and hundreds of tents set up.

Can only the fire of real danger and death really open your eyes, does it always have to be like this, or only someone like Lucas can change it and be above.
