*Ssssk*
Flare's eyes widened when he realised what had happened. Blood dripped on the floor and the impact made her fall to the ground with a loud thud and wince in pain.
A fresh wound peeked out from the torn cloth around her shoulder.
"Run..kyou..!" She uttered as she created a random portal right below Kyou's feet without thinking of the consequences just so that he could escape safely. Kyou's eyes widened as he looked below his feet and fell into the portal.
After he was gone, Flare let out a maniacal laugh,
"Seriously? Is he that important? Oh wait, why do I even care...when I m just going to finish you off here."
Ae Rin glared at him and finally transformed into her true demonic form.
"Heh. The show starts...NOW!" She grinned as she stood back up and patted the dust off while the wound that almost ripped her shoulder apart, faded away in an instant.
They both lunged at each other with full force of their ability.
"Ackkk!!"
The strength of her ability sent him flying into the wall, where he landed with a loud thud.
"Heh. I have to say, your strength is amazing. But that won't stop me from killing you now!" Flare said as he got up, wiped the blood from his lower lip with the back of his hand and once again, charged at Ae Rin at full speed, holding his black scythe in one hand.
Ae Rin prepared herself to attack him but suddenly, her head was throbbing which made her stumble backwards in pain before dropping to the ground as the world around her was starting to become blurry.
She turned her head forward to focus...but it was too late.
"Ackk! Blurrgggghh!!!!" Blood spilled out of her mouth and she looked at below to see the black scythe pierced deep inside her chest and her blood stained shirt.
Flare gripped the scythe with his both hands and pulled it out of her chest with lots of force, which made her spill out more and more blood from her mouth and her head fell to the ground.
"The poison of my scythe from the wound before must have come into effect. This is what you get to underestimate me." He grinned ear to ear as he raised his scythe into the air to plunge it into her body once again.
"I will never.. let...you...get me..!" She spoke weakly as she created another portal below her with the amount of energy she was left with and dropped into the portal before he could lay a finger on her again.
"You escaped for now. But you can't run from me forever, Servia. I swear I will find you and kill you!" He said as he glared at the Ae Rin's blood on the ground.
"Useless, aren't you?" The voice of the King was back.
Flare flinched when he heard the voice and quickly turned around and kneeled on the ground.
"I-I m truly sorry! P-please have mercy on me! I will kill her next time for sure! Just give me one more chance!"
"Another chance, huh?" The voice scoffed.
"P-please have mercy on me! Just one more chance! I beg of you!" He pleaded miserably.
"If you don't bring me her head the next time you get to her, then I will make sure to slice off your head first." The voice replied coldly.
Flare didn't say anything but simply trembled in fear at the words of the King.
"What are you still doing here? Do you want to get your head sliced off from the beginning itself?" The voice said.
"N-no, my Lord!" He said as he instantly vanished from the room.
"Servia Aamon...you can't stop me from awakening him...and I will make sure of that."
