"For that, I got a plan", Duncan smirked, his smile confident. Then, he proceeds to tell his plan to Davida and Diane. After hearing Duncan's plan, Diane nodded, but Davida was sceptical about it. Seeing the hesitation on his young miss's face, Duncan smile, "It's okay young miss, I know what I'm doing", he assured. Davida still has some reservations, but she decided to trust Duncan.
"Right, are you all ready?" Duncan asked, preparing to open the jail cell. Davida nodded while Diane just smiles at Duncan. Duncan nodded back at the two of them, then proceeds to open the jail cell. Once he did so, the protective barrier surrounding the jail cell disappeared. The Dullahan sensed that Duncan and the others had already left the jail cell; immediately after, the Dullahan ordered its subordinate to swarm the trio.
Duncan charges at the horde of undead with his dark yellow aura coated on him. A ghoul jumped at Duncan with its hand stretched out, trying to claw at Duncan. Duncan looked at it disdainfully as he easily swatted the ghoul aside. Then, Duncan jumped towards the prison's entrance. He roared with his aura, attracting the undead to Duncan. Duncan raised his greatsword at the Dullahan, taunting the Dullahan with a snicker on his face.
The Dullahan roar with fury. Enraged, the Dullahan grabbed its sword and shield, charging at Duncan with its shield held upfront. The Dullahan bashed Duncan with its shield then slashed with its sword. Duncan staggered backwards but still managed to lock his sword at the Dullahan. While locking their sword, Duncan looks at the headless Dullahan, trying to parry its sword to the side.
The Dullahan tried to use its shield to bash at Duncan while it firmly held his sword to lock Duncan's greatsword in place. Duncan met the Dullahan's shield with his fist, letting go of his greatsword. The impact from Duncan's fist sends the Dullahan backwards. Duncan quickly picked up his greatsword as a couple of undead rushed towards him. Sweeping his greatsword, Duncan made quick works of the undead before focusing his attention towards the Dullahan.
The Dullahan propped itself up with its shield before charging again at Duncan with frenzy. Just before the Dullahan's shield hit Duncan, the Dullahan stopped suddenly. Caught off guard, Duncan already preparing himself to block the Dullahan charged. Seeing Duncan reactions, the Dullahan smirked inside before swinging down at Duncan. Thankfully, Duncan quick reflexes saved him as he managed to step sideways to avoid the Dullahan's downward strike, although the movement got Duncan to stumbles down. When he does, the undead around immediately tried to swarm Duncan.
Watching this unfold, the Dullahan step aside, letting its underling do what they wanted. Duncan's eyes flashed with burning spirit, then he roared as dark yellow energy gathers on his body before blasting the nearby undead to smithereens. As soon as the dark yellow energy dimmed a little, the Dullahan doesn't waste time. It directly rushed at Duncan with its right arm stretched out, trying to stab Duncan.
Duncan used his dark yellow aura to stop the Dullahan's stab before blasting it away with a dark yellow energy blast. Duncan did not let up; he chased the Dullahan and kept hitting the Dullahan with his empty fist. Unfortunately for Duncan, the Dullahan's body was made of solid, magic-enhanced, metal armour, which caused Duncan's fists to bleed red. Duncan stopped punching after he grabbed the Dullahan and threw it to the second floor. While the Dullahan flew, Duncan immediately picked up his greatsword and followed it upstairs.
The Dullahan was able to collect itself, standing up with vigilance. Suddenly, the Dullahan sensed something coming for it from up above. The Dullahan look up, seeing Duncan comes straight at it, positioning his greatsword for a stab. Too late to step away, the Dullahan planted its feet, holding its shield up. However, Duncan's target wasn't the Dullahan, as he landed right beside the Dullahan, catching the Dullahan off guard.
Duncan took a deep breath, then, using his dark yellow aura, he coated the greatsword with it and tried to slash the Dullahan. The Dullahan got flung away again by Duncan's strike. However, thanks to its magic-enhanced metal body, The Dullahan only sustained a minor number of injuries before it stood back up again. Feeling that its body was chipped, the Dullahan roared in a fury, pointing its sword towards Duncan.
Then, the horde of undead charges at Duncan that is still on the second floor. Duncan chuckled at the Dullahan's foolish method as he easily killed every single undead that came at him by grabbing them one by one and throwing them to the Dullahan below. This act enrages the Dullahan even further; it dodges a skeleton that flew towards it and then jumped high to the second floor.
As soon as the Dullahan landed, Duncan immediately ran towards it with his greatsword hung high. Duncan swung down, but the Dullahan managed to block it. The impact from the blow caused the ground to sink, making a small crater. The Dullahan grunted; it used its free hand to stab towards Duncan. Duncan easily saw through the Dullahan's move as he released the grip from his left hand and caught the Dullahan's sword.
Duncan tried to disarming the Dullahan by twisting its wrist, but since the Dullahan is a being made of armour, its hand did not budge and firmly gripped its sword. Seeing his strategy did not work, Duncan did not panic. Duncan's eyes gleam; he grabbed the blade of the Dullahan's sword, then he let go of his greatsword completely and using his aura, Duncan pushed the Dullahan back.
The Dullahan struggled to hold on to its sword as it involuntarily let go of it. The Dullahan helplessly looked up as it sees Duncan with a smug smile on his face. Duncan held the Dullahan sword with his left hand and picked his greatsword with his right arm. Now that Duncan was back at his prime, holding a greatsword with one hand was easy for Duncan.
Then, Duncan rushed towards the Dullahan, now weaponless. Duncan delivered a barrage of attacks while the Dullahan could only block with its shield. Every time the Dullahan tried to escape, Duncan prevents it by either striking with the Dullahan's sword or blocking it with his greatsword. The Dullahan kept getting pushed back by Duncan; eventually, the Dullahan can't take it anymore. The Dullahan roared while being pushed back then a horde of undead rise up from the ground.
The horde of undead swarms at Duncan, cathing his attention away from the Dullahan. The Dullahan collected its breath and focusing its attention on Duncan. The Dullahan glared at Duncan hatefully as it saw its sword being used to kill its own subordinate. The Dullahan jumped down to the first floor, walking near the prison cell before ripping the door up. The Dullahan used its strength to shape the metal door into a makeshift spear.
The Dullahan then continues creating makeshifts spear from the prison cell's door. When the Dullahan felt that its spear was enough, it picked one of the spears up before throwing it at Duncan with strength. Duncan easily parries the spear but a second spear immediately follow. Duncan wanted to parry that spear again, but he felt something was scratching his back. Using his dark yellow aura, Duncan flung back the undead that was attacking him and jumped down to the first floor towards the Dullahan.
The Dullahan kept throwing its makeshifts spears towards Duncan but keeping one for himself. Duncan manages to parries most of them, barring some that don't target his vital points. When Duncan parry the last spear, he saw the Dullahan jumped at him with its spear ready to thrust. Duncan leans his body outwards, dodging the Dullahan's thrust. Duncan slashed with his greatsword towards the Dullahan, but the Dullahan firmed the hit because of its magic-enhanced body.
The Dullahan does not give up, as it gave a kick at Duncan. Duncan managed to block the kick with his left arm. Although Duncan does not take real damage, it caused enough for Duncan to let go of the Dullahan's sword. Seeing this, the Dullahan quickly throws the makeshift spear towards Duncan before quickly charging with its shield upfront. While Duncan was distracted by the spear, the Dullahan rolled to the ground, picking its own sword back up before stepping away.
The Dullahan stared at Duncan while Duncan looked warily at the Dullahan. The states of the fight seem to return to the beginning, but Duncan heightens his aura to the limit. The Dullahan was warry about this as it tried to interrupts Duncan. Duncan quickly steps back, seeing that the Dullahan caught his bait. "Now, young miss!" Duncan shouted, then a massive amount of fire elements merged together above the Dullahan. Davida and Diane, who was missing from the confrontations earlier, can now be seen on the second floor. They stood next to each other, crossing their staff as they cast a spell together.
"Meteor Fall!" Davida and Diane shouted together. The Dullahan looked above it and felt fear etching on its skin. The Dullahan wanted to escape, but it was all too late as a massive ball of scorching flame hit the Dullahan with a boom.
