Chapter 24 - The Saints That Went Marching.

The Magicaean army starts to cheer and sit down on the ground and rest.

"Bonnie! Bonnie!" Henry yelled until Bonnie looked at him. "I can't concentrate," Bonnie said crudely. "What are you doing?" Henry asked. Bonnie roll her eyes and continue to do the spell. Henry looked at her with rage as calm as waves. "Once I get out of here, I'll kill you," Henry said.

"Never mind," Eris said seriously. "Huh, what do you mean?" Jubi asked while the others cheered. "Jubi, I hear something. Chanting, I hear someone chanting in multiple languages." Eris said looking into the ocean. The land starts to rumble, it's an earthquake.

Henry feels the rumble of the quake looks at Bonnie and sees that her eyes and nose are bleeding. "Bonnie! What the hell are you doing?!" Henry asked infuriatingly. He tries to get off the ship as fast as possible but the spell that Bonnie put on the ship was still in use and Henry couldn't get off. A black magic circle with sigils all around it appears under where Bonnie is floating. The circle gets bigger and it pushes the ship away.

"You feel that right? It's magic." Eris said. "Wait, you don't think… they all dropped down one by one. They just dropped like flies. Could it be Kirolorria?" Jubi asks. Eris's eyes widen. "This war, it wasn't to conquer Magicae, it was to raise Kirolorria into our plane. She couldn't just kill ten million pixies without her full power. She gave her power to the ones you and the others were fighting. And I was stupid enough to let you all kill them so that she could kill the pixies. She wanted us to kill the pixies, each death gave her magic." Eris said. "No, you're just panicking," Jubi said nervously.

"W- we're all going to die," Mai said, eyes getting teary. "So you feel it too? The earthquakes are caused by magic and large amounts of it. It's more magic than even me. Kirolorria is extremely powerful. I want you all to leave. Now! Get Mable and everyone else. Tell them to go far north and also every other city you pass. And don't stop." Eris said. His wings appear and a white spiral appears in the center of his forehead. The white mark stretched into his arms and stopped on his hands making spirals on them. They stretched down to his legs. He takes his shoes off and a spiral is on his feet as well. His wings get bigger, his white hair gets longer. "You released the All-In-One-Nature seal…" Deros said amazed. "Let's just call it what it truly is, the Incanuit seal," Eris said.

Bonnie stops chanting. She turns to the boat and lets her hand out. She puts her hand back in the spell position and looks into the sky. Henry jumps off the boat, successfully. He starts to swim to the shore. "Rise Kirolorria!" Bonnie said. With those words, the circle gets bigger and it goes under the water. The quakes stop and Bonnie flies away from where the circle was.

There, a humongous hand appears out of the water. Then another one. The two hands go back onto the ocean floor and it pulls up a giant body, Kirolorria's body.

"Everyone! Fly out of here. Go far north and if you go past a city tell them to leave too and don't stop!" Eris yells. The fairies' wings appear and they start to leave. Due to Kirolorria's body getting pulled up a wave of water comes to the shore. Eris quickly flies from the hilltop. And magically blocks the water with his hands. He sees a boat to his right and sees Henry. Eris flies over to him. Once Eris gets to Henry he slaps Henry to wake him up.

Kirolorria is so tall that the water only goes to his ankles. "Kirolorria! I have bought you back on this earthly plane just like you asked. Now may I be free?" Bonnie asks. Kirolorria looks down at her and a grin appears on his face. He bends down to pick her up with his nails since his hands are four times her size. He pulls her closer to his face and Bonnie gets scared and starts to whimper.

"You made me proud, Bonnie," Kirolorria said in a distorted voice. He pulls his head back opens his mouth and drops Bonnie in. He gulps as a result of him eating her. He starts to slowly walk through the water and to the shore.

"What happened?" Henry asked. "Kirolorria is here. And as you can tell from this energy, his power is far greater than anything. You have to go." Eris said. "What? No, I'm not leaving you. That's suicide, Eris. I'm staying." Henry said. "It's suicide if you stay. You're a human, your body doesn't heal like mine, and worse of all you have to hear yourself to do a spell! You're not staying." Eris said. Henry smiles. "I'm not taking no for an answer," Henry said. Eris hugs Henry. While hugging him he he holds his hand out and a white circle appears behind them. It's a portal. "I'm sorry, but I can't let you die," Eris whispers in Henry's ear. He pushes Henry into the portal and it disappears as soon as Henry goes in. Tears fall out of Eris's eyes, and he turns around at looks at Kirolorria walking to the shore. Eris starts to hover over the ground as he wipes the tears from his face. He quickly flies to Kirolorria.

Kirolorria stops walking and he sees Eris. "Hmm, your power is quite strong… You are?" Kirolorria asks squinting his eyes since Eris is tiny compared to him. "Eris. Twelfth king of Magicae. And you're right, my power is strong but, yours is far beyond strong. So let's make a deal." Eris said. "A deal… That's possible." Kirolorria smirks as he lifts his hand closer to Eris. "Since you're dead you can remember me as shinanai hito," Kirolorria said. "Wha-". Kirolorria flicks Eris with his finger. Eris goes flying into the buildings and homes of Mediocris.

Out of the portal, Henry falls onto the ground. "What the hell?" Deros said. "No! Take me back." Henry said. "Eris sent you… I can't take you back. If Eris sent you here, he wanted you to live. I can't take you back, I'll be putting myself and my clan in danger." Deros said. Henry gives a disappointed expression "Fine. But there's gotta be a way to help him." Henry said. "Well, we can summon him," Deros says but more so to himself than to Henry.

Two giant rocks rise from the ocean and appear on Kirolorria's right and left sides. Three holes form in both of the rocks and it starts blasting magical beams at the capital, destroying the city. The beams stop and Kirolorria's eyes widen.

"Oh my god. The tree of life. So, it wasn't dead all this time." Kirolorria said. Eris was on a tree branch. "This castle's architecture was built for the tree to be in the center of it. And by your reaction, you should know what it's capable of." Eris said. Giant White spears appear in the sky above Eris. He points his hand to Kirolorria and the spears go flying to him. He tumbled onto the shore and dust clouds formed all around his body. "Your power is too strong. It's time for you to die by the gods' refrain." Eris said flying. 

"Did you think I'm that easy to kill?" Kirolorria said. Eris turns around and sees Kirolorria in a smaller form. "This is my true body. You have been the first person to see it since the gods thousands of years ago." Kirolorria said. At the speed of lighting, he goes over to punch Eris. While Eris is in the sky Kirolorria gives him a barrage of punches and he stops once they get on the ground. "You know you can just give up, let me have this world and I'll let you remember this life when a new one on earth gives birth," Kirolorria said. Eris smiles. The ground starts to shake, and Eris poofs into white butterflies. Multiple giant white fists start to come from the ground and Kirolorria gets hit by one and lays face down on the giant fist speeding into the sky.

"Kirolorria! I thought I would've never had to do this spell, but you are a peculiar man." Eris said floating in the sky not even bruised by the hits Kirolorria gave him. All of the fist flips and point down to the ground and speeds down onto it while Kirolorria is speeding down to the ground as well. "Even if I have to destroy my city, my home, I will kill you," Eris said. Eris's eyes get wider, and he drops down faced onto the ground. Kirolorria gets up from the wreckage of some buildings. "You are feeling the power of gravity. It's slamming you down onto Terra." Kirolorria said. Kirolorria flies down to Eris who can barely get up. A sword appears in Kirolorria's hand. He holds it up above Eris vertically, but he gets blown away before he runs the blade through Eris' chest.

"You okay?" Henry asked rushing towards Eris. "What are you doing here?" Eris asks struggling to sit up. Henry chuckle. "If you die fighting out here, I want to spend my last moments with you. We're going out with a bang, and a big one. So stand up and let's continue to fight until our last breath." Henry helps Eris stand up and they see Kirolorria walking back to where they are.

"How lovely. Two kings fighting side by side till death could make some good poems." Kirolorria said sarcastically. He speeds to Eris with a sword readying to strike but Eris holds his hand out at the sword and stops it. He pushes Kirolorria back and Henry and Eris run toward him. Two swords appear in both of Kirolorria's hands and without contact, he strikes the air and Eris goes flying into some houses. Caught off guard, Kirolorria gets punched by Henry. They start to fist fight but then Kirolorria grabs Henry by his hand and he crushes some of his bones. Henry pulls back. He looks at his hand and he looks up and Kirolorria slaps him and he goes slamming onto the ground.

A white aura surrounded the two houses beside Eris and he held his hand up and the houses lifted. The houses go towards Kirolorria colliding with each other. Kirolorria stops the houses. And they fall to the ground. Eris starts to fly to Kirolorria but stops mid-way. Kirlorria laughs evilly whilst holding Henry by his neck.

"You have a choice! Your husband, or Terra. I'm gonna give you a count to ten and if you don't have an answer, I'll flip a coin." Kirolorria said with his fingers in Henry's chest readying to rip his heart out. Eris closes his eyes.

"Pick one, child. Although if you hesitated I wouldn't blame you. Save the love of your life or your planet. Wow, that's a gamble." Allock said. "Why do you keep bringing me here, Dad?" Eris said. "Oh, you think I'm bringing you here. This is your mind Eris, stop acting dense! You are having a psychotic break at this moment right now so you force yourself into your head where you see me. I don't want you here, you want me here. I want peace but instead, you got me here to be your guidance. You're the king! This is what you signed up for. You have to decide for your future and your kingdom's future. Not me, so let me go, son. Let me go to peace with your mother." Allock said. Eris opens his eyes.

"So, what do you say? The world or your soulmate?" Kirolorria asked one last time. "I pick… Henry." Eris said letting tears out of his eyes. Kirolorria's fingers come out of Henry's chest, and he throws Henry to Eris. "Farewell. Time to go get the saints that went marching." Kirolorria starts to walk off.

"Eris why would you do that?! Billions of people are going to die because of your selfish actions." Henry exclaimed. "Shut up! The spell you and Deros did worked. He's almost here." Eris said. "How'd you-" Henry gets cut off by the rising fire surrounding them. It was black flames and it surrounded them with no way out. "I'm assuming this is hellfire. And he isn't here yet." Henry said.

"Hmm. How should I kill the fairies?" Kirolorria asks himself. He stops when a breeze passes through him. He starts to tremble. "How- how is he here? He's supposed to be dead!" Kirolorria yells. He slowly turns around and sees that the fire disappeared. He also sees someone else behind Eris and Henry.

"Just like the statue in the fairy sanctuary. You're Magus." Eris says. He bows his head to the man who came out of nowhere. "Incorrect. I'm not Magus." The man says. Kirolorria starts to fly over to them. "Magus!" Kirolorria yells while flying. A sword appears in Kirolorria's hand but the man that looks like Magus holds his hand out and Kirolorria stops in mid-air. The whole world freezes. "Time magic," Henry said amazed. Eris' and Henry's wounds heal instantly.

"Magus is my grandfather, I am his first and only grandson, Aarion In two thousand years. I'm of the Magus coven. Heard of it?" Aarion says. "Never," Eris said. 

"Hmm. This isn't earth. What galaxy is this? What planet is this? Lastly, why did you call me here?" Aarion asks looking around at the damage to the city. "This planet is called Magia Terra. And we humans call the galaxy the Milky Way. Uh, and we need you to help us to defeat the person you just stopped." Henry explained.

"Same galaxy, that's good. And him, unfortunately, I don't have enough power to kill him, if that was what you two were asking. See, I am a doppelgänger and if you don't know what a doppelgänger is I am a person that nature created so that dark magic wouldn't roam the earth causing chaos. But ever since Magus came back to life- oh and he was dead for two thousand years. My full magic power that was still untapped split in half so that some could go into Magus. So I cannot kill the person I stopped with a time spell because if I use all my magic I could die, or I wouldn't have a way to go back to Earth." Aarion said. Eris and Henry look disappointed. "So, we summoned you for nothing? Can't defeat his Devil magic." Henry says.

"Hmm, devil magic. That's new. And of course, the opposite of devil magic will be God magic," Aarion smiled. "After I leave, the time spell I placed on him will vanish. So, say this incantation while holding hands, will you?" Aarion said. "Oh, we're married so it won't be a problem," Eris says and chuckles. "I wish my life could be as happy as yours. Anyway, magicae nostrae deo quondam fuse magicae infundentur. Multiplicabitur per tres semel corpora nostra unum. Now bye. Hopefully, we'll meet again, Eris and Henry." Aarion says before he disappears. "We never told him our names did we?" Henry asks. "Nope," Eris said in response.

The spell cast on Kirolorria stops and he crashes onto the ground. He quickly flies up and sees that 'Magus' is gone.

"It's time that I stopped playing with you guys. Here, this should kill you." Kirolorria said. He flies up high in the sky and he points his index finger up. A black-redish ball appears above his finger. Henry and Eris hold hands and start to say the words that Aarion told him to say. "A human spell? That's futile!" Kirolorria said. He throws the ball toward Eris and Henry. The ball stays above them and it grows covering the entire city. All animals around the ball quickly start to flee. Kirolorria starts to fly away. The ball disappears and the entire city is in ruins. Dust clouds make way all around the city.

"Kirolorria!" Someone bellows. "Ugh, what is it now?" Kirolorria said infuriated. He turns around and gets punched down to the ground. "Who are you?!" Kirolorria exclaimed. "We are two in one. Henry and Eris fused their bodies and magic and made it one. We made our magic god magic, the only thing that's capable of killing you. But since you're dead, you can remember as Deuslucis." Deuslucis said.

A sword appears in Deuslucis' hand and so does one in Kirolorria's. When the swords clash a wave comes for it. They continue to clash their swords. Both of the swords fall out of Kirolorria's and Deuslucis' hands. They start to fight fist-to-fist. Deuslucis have the upper hand in the fight. Deuslucis breaks Kirolorria's hand and kicks his knee in. "You cannot move. So, die." Deuslucis' sword appears in his hand. "Wait! I can, I can bring your mother back. Kana, I can bring her back." Kirolorria said. Deuslucis hesitated but he stabs the sword down onto Kirolorria's chest. And since the sword is made of god magic Kirolorria dies.

After he died, Henry and Eris separated. As soon as they separate Henry falls to the ground. "Eris, my body," Henry says. He groans in pain. "You're a human it hurts more for you. I- I could do one last spell." Eris said. A white bow and arrow appears and he shoots it far north up into the sky.

"Continue to move, King Eris said to not stop," Deros said as the people of Mediocris walked far away. The arrow appears in front of Deros. "It's over. It's over! The war is over!"

~Two weeks later~

"Henry still isn't awake. The spell was too much for him and the rest of the city isn't finished getting rebuilt." Eris says before sighing. "Dad, I know this isn't the right time, but I contacted the descendant of Magus and he plans on building a school in some time. I wondered if I could make a portal to Earth. So, I could see how earth is and how to blend in once I go to the school he's building. Uh, can I?" Victor asked. "Yeah, you can go whenever. And Jessica, once Mediocris is rebuilt I'm letting you go to this place called Astellan. Or it can be called the Land of Nymphs. There's a school there, a boarding school I want you to go to. And Mike, you can go wherever you want." Eris said. All of the siblings nod and walk off.

"Jessica, when you go to Astellan I want you to be careful. I heard of people there, dangerous people. Calling themselves knights of Astellan.
