"I'm the one who created thes stones, I am Razai!"
The blue kid had finally revealed his name, it was none other than the person who'd created the stones, the long perished mage that existed in the ancient era still appeared to be alive and how was he still in this era? one possible conclusion shaizu could reach was he'd used the stones of immortality which allowed him to live till this day, but he knew this wasn't the case, this wasn't what his dream told him. It was all very different from what Shane was seeing in his dreams but shaizu still somehow knew the person standing in front of him was not who he claimed to be.
"You are not Razai, I'm sorry you may fool yourself but I'm not blind." Shaizu responded to the kid who was supposed to be Razai.
"So I'm not huh?"
"Nah, that kid I saw before he vanished into the crowd was the real one."
"He had more of a gentle aura around him, while you don't, your greed stinks even from this far and I don't like it."
HAHAHA! you're an amazing person kaloo lord's child."
"However that doesn't matter anymore, I the mighty mage is the new owner of this body."
"And I shall take what this body owns."
"Bastard! I knew there was something wrong with you I could tell even in your previous body." Korz yelled.
Korz had been present in this cave way before shaizu, it was possible he had seen Everything there was about this another person this was why he warned shaizu and this was exact reason he was attacked so he couldn't tell anything to shaizu.
Korz looks back at shaizu with pointing his finger at him and yells as wide mouth drenches shaizu's face with his spit.
Bastard! And you, if you knew this person was someone else then why did you stop me from immobilizing him?
"We could have taken him down while we had this chance!"
"Why do you ask? Well, I don't know myself but this didn't just seemed right."
"I don't know how to explain it but there was a voice in my mind that told me this person doesn't deserve to die."
"So I followed it!" Shaizu spoke with a warm smile as he stared at Razai's body.
"MWAHAHA, All these decades of years and you mere lifeforms are still at lvl one."
"I shall educate you that success lies in 'not caring about anyone!'" Razai's body was laughing hard, but this wasn't Razai's voice, it was someone evil.
"Watch out, he's coming!"
If shaizu wasn't just a few inches away, his mind would've exploded. Razai was using his swift speed combined with his transformed hand to attack as a weapon. His hand had taken a form of hammer that would crush any opponent he'd face. One attack after another was delivered by Razai, each blow either increased it's speed or shaizu's pace decreased, but there wasn't a moment to sit down and breathe. If shaizu wanted to survive he must also dirty his hands by attacking back or else come up with an strategy to face against his monster.
Shaizu wasn't alone who was dodging these attacks korz had also been sweating and had no energy to evade these attacks anymore.
"Huff huff, I can't believe I'm being slapped to my face, I thought a cosmalan prince was the strongest!" Tired shaizu ask.
"Of course pup, you're the star lord, the future of these words.. hurry up and summon your flames already!" Korz angrily yelled at shaizu.
"We're not in a situation where I'm needed to be told to punch, if I could I would!"
"But there's a problem, I don't know how to summon my flames!"
And that was right, for a normal cosmalan they learn to use their abilities even when they're very young, all it takes is just a little bit of love and acceptance for them to believe in their powers. Even a baby could know love, so it was easy for a cosmalan to be depend since birth, But was that something shaizu had? When he was the younger prince as aizu he wasn't loved, he was put in anti blaze prison where he couldn't use any of his powers or life energy known as "blaze" On top of that his family (mother) didn't come to him very often either, let alone have a word of care. Well it must've been because she was too scared to face her child in this pain, thinking aizu would hate her but It was still necessary for him to have known some of her love. It wasn't just hypothetical beliefs of being loved he needed, the true powers of a cosmalan were born from a real life experience of love.
To make matters his life in anti blaze cage made his abilities even more surpressed so shaizu doesn't know the process of summoning his powers in the natural way.
The more shaizu tried to imagine any love from his cosmalan's side, the more he realized how much he had been rejected and hated, his loneliness and fears kept taking in his head instead. While shaizu was thinking about this his heart could no longer be heard to let out a beating, his eyes had went from orange, fangs were growing sharp and larger and his that had turned snow white had some veins popping out of him.
W-wha, what's that energy. Korz shift his gaze from Razai to shaizu as his face got covered in sweat, there was a moment of fear drawn on his face. But it all vanished as the atmosphere turned back to normal. Shaizu was on the ground holding his head. From that brief moment of disturbing energy korz knew there was something wrong with shaizu
Razai grinned as he saw shaizu's current incapability, it was proving a biggest advantage to that entity in original razai's body it was time he'd remove the second hurdle as well, razai ends up defeating the last pillar who'd been carrying shaizu, it was korz! Korz had been protecting shaizu so he could use his abilities to unleash his potential but it all failed. No matter how strong korz was, he was still not enough even for a slightest chance.
With shaizu on ground struggling with something unknown, korz had also admitted his defeat by falling on his knees. Razai eyes see nothing but a couple of losers fallen ground, he confirms his victory and wishes to leave.
"And thus my friends Lost their touching battle, you don't have anything to fear as you'll be hell together."
"Five! Just five minutes till I'll absorb all these blue fools you so wish to protect."
"Don't worry it's just as much it'll take them to reach you in hell as well, I'd love to visit you there."
"But immortals don't die, BWAHAHA!"
Razai leaves through creating a hole in the ceiling, he purposely makes it so the boulders would crumble and fall on shaizu and korz, are shaizu and korz defeated? Will they really just let Razai absorb those people and reactivate his self as the stone of immortality?
"Two minutes, just two minutes till I'll defeat that bastard!" Shaizu yelled as he had finally snapped out!
