Chapter 56 - Slave

As the chaos of war engulfed the battlefield, Pyta and Shimisu found themselves in the thick of the fray, their allies locked in a desperate struggle against overwhelming odds.

At the rear of the battlefield, Pyta stood resolute, commanding his troops with precision amidst the chaos. With a large group of soldiers at his back, he barked orders, directing their movements with strategic acumen.

Meanwhile, Shimisu weaved through the battlefield with unmatched agility, dodging enemy strikes with graceful ease as he sought to turn the tide of battle in his favor.

"Sir Pyta! We're being outnumbered!" a soldier cried out, his voice tinged with urgency.

"Bring me the FOUR elements of destruction!" Pyta commanded, his voice cutting through the din of battle.

With swift obedience, four knights clad in suits of armor emerged, each bearing a differently colored cape – red, blue, yellow, and brown.

"Sir yes sir!!!" the knights responded in unison, their determination evident as they prepared to heed Pyta's call.

"Get out there and even out the playing field," Pyta ordered, his eyes blazing with determination.

With a resounding cry, the knights charged into battle, each wielding their own unique abilities to wreak havoc upon the enemy ranks.

The Yellow Knight summoned a golden javelin infused with electricity, striking down enemy soldiers with lightning-fast precision.

The Brown Knight wielded a massive metallic hammer, unleashing seismic shockwaves that sent enemy combatants flying through the air.

The Blue Knight conjured a bow of water, firing arrow after arrow to pierce through enemy defenses with deadly accuracy.

And the Red Knight ignited his flaming gauntlets, charging headlong into battle with ferocious intensity, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake.

As the knights unleashed their fury upon the battlefield, Pyta himself stepped into the fray, summoning his own weapon with a mighty cry.

"SUBETE NO BUKI!!!" Pyta roared, his voice echoing across the battlefield as he unleashed his ultimate technique.

With a swift motion, Pyta created a duplicate of his sword, wielding both with unparalleled skill as he carved through waves of enemy soldiers with ruthless efficiency.

"Look!" Pyta declared, his eyes ablaze with triumph as he surveyed the carnage around him, his enemies lying vanquished at his feet.

With the tide of battle now turned in their favor, Pyta and his allies pressed forward, their determination unwavering as they fought to secure victory against all odds.

As the battle raged on, Pyta's prowess on the battlefield was undeniable, his skill cutting through enemy ranks like a scythe through wheat.

"Thats our Pyta! taking out thousands of men in a minute!" one soldier exclaimed, his voice tinged with admiration for their fearless leader.

"More are coming!" another soldier shouted, his eyes scanning the horizon for signs of the enemy's advance.

Pyta wasted no time in assessing the situation, his mind already formulating a plan to turn the tide of battle in their favor.

"The only way to permanently take care of the enemy soldiers is to take care of the leader," Pyta declared, his voice commanding authority as he addressed his troops. "Soldiers, stay here and fend off the opposition. I'll go after the leader."

With resolute determination, Pyta's soldiers rallied to his command, their loyalty unwavering as they prepared to hold the line against the oncoming tide of enemies.

Meanwhile, amidst the chaos of battle, Kogito sat upon a wooden chair, his demeanor tinged with frustration and disdain for the lifeless soldiers that surrounded him.

"The more lifeless soldiers around me, the more I lose my sanity..." Kogito muttered to himself, his frustration palpable in the air.

Suddenly, a single soldier materialized before him, its form a stark contrast to the motionless figures that surrounded them.

"Tell me that I can join you guys on the battlefield," the soldier began, only to be met with swift and merciless retribution from Kogito.

"Bitch! Don't tell me what to do!!!" Kogito snarled, his rage boiling over as he dispatched the soldier with ruthless efficiency.

But before Kogito could fully revel in his moment of triumph, a familiar figure emerged from the shadows, his presence a harbinger of impending danger.

"Did... I... come at the wrong time?" Shimisu's voice cut through the tension like a knife, his gaze piercing as he locked eyes with Kogito.

"How did you get through my army? Nonetheless my personal defenses!?" Kogito demanded, his tone tinged with disbelief at Shimisu's sudden appearance.

"Your units are really dumb," Shimisu replied casually, his confidence unwavering as he explained his strategy. "As long as I have one of your units on my body, they don't see me as a threat."

"And now they do because of me knowing that now!" Kogito retorted, his frustration mounting as he realized the flaw in his own tactics. "The more flaws to my soldiers that are brought up, the better my soldiers become."

As the two adversaries faced off, Shimisu sought to understand the intricacies of Kogito's abilities, his curiosity piqued by the enigmatic nature of his opponent's powers.

"Wow... I processed none of that," Shimisu admitted, his tone laced with bemusement at Kogito's complex explanations. "Anyway, me and my ally formed a plan that can easily defeat you."

"How so?" Kogito inquired, his curiosity piqued by Shimisu's confident assertion.

"You'll see, just keep making your units NOT attack me," Shimisu replied cryptically, a mischievous glint in his eyes as he awaited Kogito's response.

But Kogito remained cautious, wary of falling prey to Shimisu's explosive abilities.

"Sorry, I'm intrigued," Kogito admitted, his gaze narrowing as he considered his opponent's next move. "Also, from what I've heard from you, you specialize in explosions, and having you use an explosive to take care of my front line soldiers plus me isn't a good choice for me to let you make."

"How do you know... about my explosions...?" Shimisu questioned, his suspicions aroused by Kogito's unexpected revelation. "I haven't even mentioned it once..."

"We have somebody on the inside!" Kogito declared triumphantly, his smirk betraying a sense of satisfaction at outmaneuvering his opponent.

"Hm. Explosion Magic: Fireworks!!!" Shimisu exclaimed, his voice echoing across the battlefield as he unleashed a dazzling display of pyrotechnics into the sky, signaling the beginning of their fateful encounter.

Meanwhile, with Pyta leading the charge, a fervent determination etched across his features, he bellowed, "That's his signal... CLEAR THE FIELD, LET THE ENEMY PUSH!!! GET BEHIND THE LINE!!!" 

With synchronized urgency, the soldiers, including Pyta himself, dashed for cover behind a hastily drawn dirt line, relinquishing control of the battlefield to the advancing enemy forces.

Back at Shimisu's position, amidst the tense standoff, he calmly commanded, "Detonate," his left hand rising with authority.

In an instant, the tranquil scene behind him erupted into chaos as the earth-shattering explosion decimated the ranks of the opposing soldiers.

Observing the aftermath, Kogito, his voice tinged with begrudging respect, remarked, "So, you placed invisible bombs all around the battlefield, and detonated them to destroy my soldiers."

Shimisu's response was stoic and unwavering, "That is exactly what I did."

Without warning, Kogito unleashed a barrage of eighteen shots from his gun, aimed directly at Shimisu. With reflexes honed by combat, Shimisu deftly dodged each bullet, retaliating with a swift punch that sent Kogito sprawling from his seat to the unforgiving ground below.

As Kogito rose, brushing off the dust of defeat, he confessed, "I'm a good strategist, not a good fighter. I'm the weakest Z too."

Shimisu's smirk was evident in his voice as he remarked, "Well, sucks for you! You can't even win this fight anymore."

Undeterred, Kogito revealed his trump card, "You're right, It took me a long time to create that army... But I still have one winning move-"

A deafening roar filled the air as a colossal electric dragon descended from the heavens, landing with thunderous force several miles away from the battleground.

Shimisu's incredulous gaze turned towards the unexpected spectacle, his thoughts interrupted by Kogito's declaration, "Welcome to the army, Shimisu."

Frozen in place, Shimisu's response was stifled, his allegiance questioned as Kogito gloated, "Quiet now? Oh yea, you're now a part of my side of the fight."

However, Pyta's sudden appearance behind Kogito shattered the illusion of control, prompting Kogito's startled exclamation, "WHAT! When did you get here?"

Pyta's response was calm and collected, "I've been here ever since he detonated those bombs."

Undeterred, Kogito seized the opportunity, commanding, "Well then... Shimisu, attack him!"

Shimisu surged forward, launching a flurry of kicks and punches at Pyta, each blow meticulously aimed yet effortlessly dodged by the seasoned warrior.

Pyta's retort cut through the tension, his words laced with disdain, "If your idea of mind control is a mindless zombie- Why am I complaining?"

Without hesitation, he delivered a swift blow to the back of Shimisu's head, prompting a startled response from his target, "I'm back!"

Kogito interjected with a plea, "Stop..."

But Shimisu, undeterred, declared confidently, "I have a countermeasure for this too!!!"

Pyta's skepticism was palpable as he remarked, "That was a little bit too easy."

Kogito's admission followed, a hint of frustration in his tone, "My abilities are still in development..."

Shimisu's triumph was short-lived as a barrage of eighteen bullets erupted from the ground behind him, each finding its mark with deadly accuracy.

Kogito's voice echoed with satisfaction, "My bullets don't stop until they hit."

The agony in Shimisu's cry reverberated through the battlefield as he fell to the ground, defeated.

But defiance remained in his words, "And Shimisu, I return you to my possession!!!"

Shimisu's revelation shattered Kogito's certainty, "Sorry... I can't do that!"

Confusion clouded Kogito's expression as Shimisu explained, "I placed a bomb in my mind that automatically destroys your mind control."

Desperation crept into Kogito's voice as he commanded, "What... OK, Pyta, FINISH SHIMISU OFF!!!"

Pyta, with a flicker of determination, summoned his weapon and approached Shimisu. But in a surprising turn, he pivoted, slashing Kogito across the chest, sending him to his knees in agony.

Kogito's bewilderment was evident as he questioned, "How did you-"

Pyta's revelation was swift and decisive, "I also had a bomb in my mind. I was excited to fight you, but you're just a loser."

Kogito's resolve hardened, realization dawning, "Why am I losing? I guess it's time to use my final resort! Awaken! Ridazuganzu Kakusei!!!"

With a flash of golden light, Kogito's gun transformed into a formidable golden whip, while Shimisu rose to face the impending battle once more.

Kogito's proclamation echoed across the battlefield, his voice infused with determination, "I summon, my awakened team!"

With a flourish of his hand, four majestic golden knights materialized behind him, each wielding a different weapon—a sword, a staff, a bow, and a battle axe.

Confident in his newfound advantage, Kogito declared, "This is where I win..."

Pyta's response was swift and decisive, "I'll kill these guys, you kill that guy."

In an instant, the knight wielding the bow vanished from the fray, prompting Pyta's triumphant remark, "Nice, one less enemy to worry about!"

Meanwhile, Kogito chose a strategic retreat, announcing, "I'll call a truce for now! I need to rethink my strategies."

But Shimisu, refusing to let his adversary escape unscathed, bellowed in defiance, "OH NO YOU DON'T!!!" as he pursued Kogito with unwavering determination.

With Pyta's attention turned towards the remaining three golden soldiers, he wasted no time in engaging them. Crafting a second sword, he charged forward, meeting the sword knight in combat. With effortless skill, Pyta swiftly overpowered his opponent, severing its head in a single fluid motion. Transforming his weapons into a massive hammer, he delivered a devastating blow to the battle axe knight, obliterating it with a resounding thud. With a deft flourish, Pyta's dagger sliced through the last knight's neck, ending its existence in a swift and efficient manner.

His task completed, Pyta reflected, "That was too easy. I should help Shimisu now."

Meanwhile, Shimisu unleashed his own assault, conjuring a ball of blue magic and hurling it towards Kogito with a cry of "ICE BOMB!!!" The magic materialized into a formidable wall of ice, blocking Kogito's path. But undeterred, Kogito utilized his whip to shatter the ice barrier, swiftly maneuvering around it as he continued his escape.

Shimisu's battle cry reverberated across the battlefield, "RUUUH, FIRE BOMB!!!"

With precision, he launched a ball of red magic towards Kogito, intent on ending the confrontation. But Kogito's agility proved unmatched as he effortlessly evaded the fiery blast, allowing it to erupt into a flaming sphere behind him.

Frustration etched into Shimisu's features as he grunted in pain, "UUUUUUUUUGH," before regaining his composure and unleashing his next move, "Metal Magic: Iron Arena."

In an instant, towering iron walls enclosed Shimisu and Kogito, sealing them within an inescapable arena.

Realizing the direness of the situation, Kogito attempted to negotiate, stammering, "W-We can talk this out!"

But Pyta's voice, filled with resolve, shattered any hope of reconciliation, "NO WE CAN'T!!!" he exclaimed as he landed beside Shimisu.

Shimisu's incredulity was evident as he questioned, "Did you seriously jump over that?"

Pyta's response was solemn, his gaze unwavering, "Kogito, your soldiers have murdered hundreds. You now have a life to live in prison."

Kogito's retort was filled with bitterness, "And you now have a life to serve in hell..."

Above them, Kogito's bow knight levitated, its bow drawn and aimed with deadly precision.

Kogito explained the impending danger, "The more he charges it, the deadlier it becomes."

Pyta's defiance remained unyielding as he questioned, "And what is that supposed to do?"

Kogito's response was ominous as the knight multiplied into twenty others, each armed with equally deadly arrows.

In a desperate bid for survival, Kogito erected a small yellow magic barrier around himself, "Defensive Magic: Self Barrier."

The knights unleashed their arrows, each imbued with potent green magic, creating a devastating pillar of destruction that consumed everything in its path.

As the smoke cleared, the grim aftermath was revealed—Shimisu's body lay prone on the ground, burnt and bleeding, while Pyta stood, his left side badly scorched but his determination unbroken.

Kogito's admission came with a sense of resignation, "Barrier down."

Observing Pyta's resilience, he remarked with a mix of disbelief and admiration, "You're still standing."

Pyta's response was resolute, a faint smirk playing on his lips, "Please. I've felt worse. Awaken, Zen Buki Kakusei."

With a surge of energy, Pyta's weapon underwent a profound transformation, morphing into a kaleidoscope of shapes and forms, each representing a different weapon in existence.

Kogito's shock was palpable as Pyta unleashed a devastating swipe, cleaving through the bow knights and the iron wall with ease.

But Kogito's defiance remained undeterred, his voice strained with pain, "How could this... be-"

Before he could finish, Pyta's decisive blow severed Kogito cleanly in half, one half of his body fading into oblivion while the other gushed blood in a grisly display.

As Pyta's weapon reverted to its original form, he cursed inwardly, realizing his own limitations, Dammit I don't have enough energy or mana to continue... or even more

Kogito's agonized cries echoed through the battlefield, catching Pyta off guard, What!? He's still alive!?

Despite his injuries, Kogito's mind raced with desperation, Those enhancements are coming in the clutch right now... but I need to be healed before I die...

Suddenly, a portal of blue energy materialized beside Kogito, revealing a formidable figure clad in imposing armor—a muscular man with a helmet concealing his face save for glowing red eyes, a black cape billowing behind him.

With contempt dripping from his voice, the figure addressed Kogito, "Come here, you worthless piece of shit."

In one swift motion, he grabbed Kogito and dragged him through the portal, which closed behind them, leaving behind a battlefield littered with remnants of the fierce conflict.
