Soma transformation continues, he grows wings twin horns and black scales. His body takes the appearance of a corrupted dragonoid.
inside reijis consciousness reiji is floating. "Where am i? what happened? oh I see I died again. if I died again why do I still feel this pain. pulse pulse. No!!! I will not die again!!! pulse pulse. I must fight back against this world. pulse pulse Pulse. No I will fight back."
The whole battlefield feels like it's shaking and a unworthy pressure illuminates the battlefield. Soma transformation is done.
Soma looks across the battlefield for those that might threaten him and he spots the king on the castle walls.
The king feels the evil pressure in the air and slightly shakes from disgust, but then a new pressure is released.
This pressure bears down on the soul the pure strength of the being exerting it must be the strongest. reijis body begins to rise. the monsters quiver in fear as the pressure they feel turns to abject fear. Fear so strong, even brainless beasts know to move now would be to die.
Reijis body cracks slightly and scales start to form he begins to grow like Soma but his features are gentle and majestic. slick black wings that look firm yet soft. his horns grow from his head slicked back towards his hair his eyes turn a deep red with slit like pupils. they look so strong yet kind. his hands grow out like claws. his legs extend making him taller scales tear his clothes slightly.
Soma sees this and inwardly cureses." "NOOOOO!!! I AM THE STRONGEST ME!!"
reijis transformation isn't over a claw like appendage appears on his wing tips. his teeth grow slightly sharper. as reijis body finishes his transformation his body is lowered to the ground in a standing position. his eyes now closed.
Soma rushes reiji" This shall not stand I shall be rid of you take your woman. and be treated like a God by that man."
Reiji stands as Soma's body seems to be moving in slow motion.
"Is this me?" reiji inspects his hands and body.
"I dont deserve power like this.""who am I to have this power?" "I can protect them with this power." he says while reflecting .
The king falls to his knees tears streaming down his face. "I was right.. he is a lost child..and not just any lost child. the child of elsha. this immense presence that once protected the world has returned. If only briefly conflict should die down soon."
The red dragon azimuth roars in the land if eternal fire. " so it begins, let us see which is stronger your child or mine."
Soma is close to reiji his claws inches from reijis eyes. then reijis eyes open and Soma is sent flying through many leftover boulders from the battlefield.
Soma sneers " No I have the power of 2 dragons. I am the only dragon child to be allowed this power. how can you be my equal?"
reiji is on top of the rock in a thinking man's position. " Equal? you think highly of yourself huh?"
Soma shoots dark flames out destroying the Boulder and causing a burned gash in the land. Reiji just floats there looking at his hand grasping it into a fist.
"You know I was once arrogant. it was you who taught me a important lesson today. My arrogance almost took their lives, my life, everything I currently care for.
" So soma let me teach you a lesson if only this once."
reiji reaches up and a white line forms. he slashes his hand into a square formation, and a light rips off Soma wings legs, and arms. Soma face is filled with abject terror.
Soma body regulates quickly and he tries to fly away. " I must escape this horror I must gather them all."
reiji appears behind him grabbing his shoulder and one wing. Soma looks back with fear plastered on his face.
"So you can regenerate huh?" I will offer you a piece of advice. A part cannot regenerate if the cells are destroyed."
reiji rips off so as right wing. Reiji proceeds to swip up the stub causing it to burn with white smoke. reiji then tosses Soma to the ground, and lands by him. reiji walks over to Soma and flips him over in the crater made by his body.
All the monsters remaining on the battlefield start to flee in sheer panic killing many of their number to get away. Soma lies there looking up at reiji. Soma spits at him.
Soma laughs as he grabs something from his jacket. reiji just watches him feeling no need to intervene in his scheme. Rosalie and Rosanna come too looking dazed. the man standing beside them looks sort of familiar to them. they look at the man's forehead where a black claw is symbolically placed between the man's eyes. the man smiles at them then at the battlefield. "Young master " the man says looking at reiji, before ge bows and dissapears.
Soma takes a pill from his pocket. "HAHA since I'm going to die I might as well take this place with me."
Reijis eyes widen he doesn't know what's in the pill, but he feels if he let's him swallow it. it will mean disaster. Reiji quickly goes to grab it , but Soma ingest it quickly.
A huge burst of energy pushes reiji back causing an explosion of wind forcing everyone back a little.
