Chapter 124 - The Goal Defines The Means!?

....

"WAKE UP.....WAKE UP!!!!!! HERALD PLEASE WAKE UP!!!

Wake up baby don't die on me I am begging you!!!!!"

Crying and sobbing, said Muruem, while Herald's laying in the ambulance.

Herald, hearing her voice opened his eyes, his desire to protect her was still intact.

"Mu...Muruem! Are you...Alright?" He says tiredly.

Muruem hugging and crying on Herald, with a smile on her face.

"Oh god Thank you!!

NOOO I AM NOT FINE!!! Look at you!!!"

Herald does not answer back, he only stares at the roof blindly...He's really confused at the moment...

'What happened...All i remember was...

Suddenly, Ether cuts him off!

"So you don't remember a thing, I thought so..."

Herald. "Ether! What happened??

How did we get here..."

Ether. "Well, we were miraculeously saved...You fainted the moment before he punched you, ironically enough that made him stop. Or else i am not sure your face would've ever been fixed again...After that, I got out of your body to protect you.

He went on a weird monologue which i found to be pretty interesting...I'll tell you about it later on."

Herald. "How were you able to hold him and escape with me?

For the little time we fought him, he was incredibly stronger!"

Ether. "...I didn't, I only managed to pull you away. Thanks to him!"

Herald knew who he's referring to.

"Him....You mean?"

Ether. "Yes...Mr Guiado came and stopped him. He told me to take you away immediatly.

They may very well be still fighting at this moment..."

Herald. "I see...."

'...So he obliged my hopeless call, he knew it was too dangereous for me out there...

I really hope you'll be fine Guiado!'

Ether. "I'll have to leave you now, I have healed your bones and internal organs."

Herald. "Thank you so much Ether..."

Under the falling burning building, the fight was indeed still taking place...

Guiado in his usual black mysterious clothes, standing in front of the moon Goddess!

The gravitational powers for some reason, did not work on him!!

Endymeon is holding his forehead as if he lost a dear one!

"Again...My piece has been broken! What a terrible day this is!!

You have succeeded at angering me!!"

Suddenly, The place got a bit darker and darker...and darker!!

Every shade of light was getting sucked in towards him, and then obliterated!! all the fire nearby disappeared. It suddenly turned into the darkest place in the whole universe!!!

"You will now experience what true demise is, for you have stolen my shine and filled me with anger!!"

Guiado keeps his calm composed face, and doesn't move an inch beside holding his arms near his chest. It is his fighting stance!

"I know...Even the bravest men fear the dark, the unknown, the unevitable!!!

Now let darkness consume you, and guide you to the right path..."

Darkness never stopped getting darker, til the point of blinding sight!! And then started consuming Guiado from everywhere until he no more appeared...

Endymeon lat out a terrifying laugh.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHH!!! Incredible! The last act was a savior for this miserable badly done piece of art! All thanks to me nevertheless Hmmmmm...

Now that it's done, I hate nothing more than how dark this world can be....Without your light, Selene!"

He smiles again, posing as if he was a 15th century noble man!

Endymeon tries to regain his light...

But it still is getting darker!!

"Selene...My queen!!

Shine on me with your light..."

To the opposite, It started consuming him this time arround!!!

His face showed...grimaces of despair!!!???

Guiado rises from the dark, surrounded by multiple purple lightning seals, Identical to those of Alkeyder beside the color difference.

"Just as you said! Even the bravest men fear the dark...Not that you are any brave.

You have always kept yourself protected from what you fear, and what you fear was your own powers! It is time for you to get a taste of them."

Endymeon. "Wha....How are you using the same powers as mine???

This is impossible!!

I am the only handler of the moon Goddess!!!

AAAAAAAHHHH!!!". He yells scaredly!

WHAT IS THIS....I AM GETTING CONSUMED BY DARKNESS!!!!!

I CAN....I CAN'T SEE!!!!!!!!!

HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!"

Endymeon is completely freaking out at this point, losing all the grace and class he had before.

Until...

"You fool!! He's not using the same powers as you...These are your powers used against you!

Stop using them and it won't affect you!!"

As she told him, he did...And she was right!

Guiado was simply reversing his technique back to him, he waited until it has full on effect before doing so.

When the technique was undone...The place returned back to how it was before!

Endymeon. "...Where did he go? I don't feel him anymore!"

It seems that Guiado left the place...

Endymeon takes some steps to check if his opponent is hiding...

Without any warning. He stepped on a trap!!

It was a trap left by Guiado

Endymeon knew he fucked up the moment he looked down...Instantly, a huge explosion destroyed everything there was left in the place!

The whole cinema, is now in crumbles...

*1 minute before the explosion*

The fireworkers were trying their best to enter every room and put down the fire, they gone deeply and were one door away from entering the hall in which Endymeon and Guiado were fighting in.

They themselves were fighting for their lives. Almost everyone was being saved thanks to Herald and Ether's plan, but Muruem kept yelling to them that there were still people there.

Reffering to both Herald and Endymeon!!

"GET IN THERE!!!

GET QUICKLY!!!

PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE FIRE!!!"

The chief was giving commands to his workers. The sound of fire and walls falling down filled the ears of every one of them.

'This is bad....Of all times this is happening!!

I should be there....next to you....Feeling your warmth.'

He looked at his necklace, which had the picture of both him and his wife, with a new born babygirl.

It was a classic case scenario.

What made it even more classic, was the fact that....All those who were near the room died in the explosion, without even having a single last thought...

After the explosion, neither Guiado nor Endymeon were seen in there...

One would ask, did he not know about them being there? Or did he chose to blow it up regardless?

In any case...The central occult was succesfully destroyed!
