"[Theory Magic], [Spirit King]!"
Keith fully activated a theoretical state of his [Spirit King] form, a powerful surge of magic gushed into and out of his body as he began to feel what it's like to fight at maximum power. That wasn't all when it comes to using the magic itself though. His form changed and he began to don a spirit mantle behind him with a crown. "So I can only materialize this form when I use it in [Theory] huh...? Very well." The two heroes that are now facing him brought out their cards and activated their abilities to their full extent. "[Hero's Card]! [Soul Binding]!" "[Hero's Card]! [Irreversible Gift]!" Multiple portals opened around the two of them, magic beasts came out to make a swift attack, forcing them to make a quick dodge before the monsters escaped back into another portal. Layla, never intended to give them time to breathe, with such a preemptive attack, both their offensive movements and defensive actions are pretty much impenetrable to anybody who faces them for the first time. "[Obey]!" The Hero of Control finally decided to start his move by sending a command to Layla's dragon. Keith simply overwrote the command due to his authority. Magic spears of various elements appeared in midair, but just as he tried to hail it down to Keith's position, the magic attacks disappeared one by one without moving. "Is that everything you can do? Then how about I start the party now? [Spirit Clock], [Reverse]." Keith reversed the flow of time for the two heroes immediately. He doesn't even care about using the [Spirit Command] as it was only a part of what he had learned. "[Reversed Time], [Magic Undone]." The two Heroes were quick enough to bring their weapons after they realized that their Hero Cards were undone, but being quick is never enough against Keith when he has the ability to use the spirits of time to his own personal ways of combat. "[Chronopause]." He stopped time and immediately struck both of them with the chain ball of his [Death Trap]. When time continued, he could only look at the two heroes battered up and bruised to the point that they need healing.
Keith simply left them there and waited for Draxus to arrive after that. They had stopped using their magic and returned to their usual state. The two heroes took that as a chance and immediately made an attack but the attacks with their claymore and dual swords stopped at thin air. They were shocked at the impossible situation but Keith simply smiled it off. A rift opened in the world and Draxus entered through it while the heroes jumped back due to a portal. "Quite a nice greeting by your friends here Keith." "It's rude to call stealing bastards as friends Drax. Isn't that a Preeliance policy by itself?" Draxus immediately realized what Keith talked about. "Alright then, so these two are the problem children heroes?" Keith simply nodded as two more people came out of the rift. "Princess Liliana and Princess Juliana?!" The Hero of Aquila who is known as the [Hero of Prodigies] was shocked to see the two royal princesses in casual clothing with Draxus. "Guess we're on the right track, Lily, Julie." Lily and Julie brought out their swords as they prepared themselves for combat. The Hero of Control immediately used his ability to manipulate the two girls but since Draxus already knew about his ability and how to know that it's being used...
"[Shut down]." Draxus's eyes glowed brightly to the point that the glowing is obvious in the day. "Honestly, I was thinking of using the new [Spellcards] or [Dimensional Magic] with both of you as experiments, but I decided that I want both of you to fuck off for a while. "[Theory Magic], [Dimensional Lockdown]." Boundaries started to form around the two heroes while Draxus kicked back with the entire group. He then compressed the dimension to make it look like they shrunk greatly.
To the two heroes, they could see that everything is seemingly becoming bigger than them. But they were simply lowered in scale from Draxus's Dimensional Lockdown. He turned the dimension into an orb of about twenty centimeters in diameter and kept it to scale on the two heroes. "What will happen to them?" Keith was somewhat curious after seeing Draxus flawlessly use [Theory Magic] without even batting an eyelid to the possible instability. "They'll be stuck here for fifty hours without food and water, but I doubt they'll die." Draxus didn't really care and just left the two of them in the ground. He then opened a rift portal back to Preeliance and told Keith to go ahead for the time being. "Go ahead back to the castle Keith, I have a talk between ruler ranks to deal with." Keith thanked Draxus for the ride home and quickly returned to Preeliance.
It was night time back in the Hall of Sentinels when Keith went to grab a can of cola. In Preeliance, and the Hall of Sentinels, Keith and Layla actually had different rooms, but both of them are free to sleep with each other due to the principles in Preeliance. "Oh? So you're here as well? Layla appeared behind Keith as he closed the cooler that stored all the cola in it. Keith simply smiled as he took another cola for Layla to drink.
"That was... Pretty hectic." Keith and Layla had moved to the lounge which was designed so that the [Order of the Crystallized Sentinels] could feel at home. It was made with a style that follows a lounge back in hotels or luxurious homes. "I never thought that I'd get to see you seriously fighting with your maximum potential. But I guess you were pissed off when the [Hero of Control] was about to take me out." "We can't really underestimate any hero. I have challenged Ulysses and Pantheon to a few duels and I have actually lost sometimes. It was a learning experience." Keith remembered something before going over the reason why he got completely pissed off by the country. "I don't want any guy reaching their hands on you after all. That bastard even managed to heal up somehow. I don't think these heroes are just problem children on their own." Keith decided to forget about some things and send a message to Draxus as he realized something. "[People of Earth] might be involved with the healing of those heroes, but eh, not my problem for a while." Keith glanced over to Layla who was mainly wearing a simple night dress. There aren't any Sentinels in the lounge or the hall due to the vacation, but some have already returned to do their jobs without issues. "I gotta say, I did lose something during the vacation, but maybe I can just say that I gave it to you." Keith understood what Layla was talking about, and looked away while blushing a bit slightly.
"How about we go rest for the time being in my room?" Keith suggested something light so that the two of them could get some good sleep.
