In a special Dimension in the Golden Courtyard. There was, Kevin, Elysia, Mei, Mobius, Eden, Su, and Hua in front of Ein. All lined up like new recruits for boot camp.
"Okay guys, you know the drill. We haven't done this with this many members before. And where's the others?" He asked them.
"Kalpas said he wants it 1on1 mano a mano. Aponia doesn't like to fight you, and the others are safekeeping they said." Elysia sad while rolling her eyes.
"Hmm, Aponia and Griseo is understandable. But the others? Tell them I'll be training them, they must have forgot." He grinned widely.
Everybody tensed, like they are going to fight for their lives. Mei gave a deep frown. "This won't be a normal spar huh?" She asked Eden and Elysia.
Eden nodded. "His words when he was training us? *My hands are the epitome of gender equality.* As he decked Elysia on the face back then. Well, at least he held back." She then prepared herself.
Mei took out her sword, and watched his every move with such intensity. You'd feel the pressure she's emanating.
Ein stretched and took off his shirt. His muscles rippled, ripped like cut obsidian. As he traced lines on his torso, front and back.
Chains then appeared with massive stakes embedded on 14 parts of his body. He flexed, as the stakes were removed and the chains were removed one by one.
He sighed as hot air and steam came out of his mouth. And everyone had grave looks on their faces. Kevin immediately shouted.
"Fight like your lives depend on it! Su! Give support with Mobius! Hua, Mei, on me! Elysia, Eden you're our long range artillery."
Mei then saw Kevin's skin started to turn blue starting from his arms. Mobius used her honkai cascade form immediately as green lightning rained down. Su's tuft of green hair started to turn into colorful feathers. A massive dome of pink crystals appeared and tons of it were orbiting Elysia. The air around Eden started to vibrate violently. Hua's hair turned white and feathers floated all around her.
Mei wasn't sure if she'll leave here alive. As the flame chasers emanated honkai energy in waves. Seeing them all cooperating for the first time.
"Raiden Mei. This is a fight of a lifetime, savor it now and learn from it. For you will die immediately if this is outside the realm." Kevin said as his voice turned guttural and inhuman.
Ein stretched like he was doing radio calisthenics. "Oya? Why so serious everyone. Let's have a lot of fun shall we? And Mei-chan, if you guys lose..."
She gulped audibly. Her hands were shaking, Kevin's words popped up into her mind. "Me and Elysia would have the privilege to touch your horns anytime we like! Okay? Now, come at me." He said softly.
Everybody jumped high into the air, Mei was confused, but followed nonetheless. As Kevin roared and hundreds of miles of land froze instantly.
Elysia controlled her crystals and an omnidirectional attack of beams pelted Ein's position, as they ricocheted on the dome, making Mei's blood turn cold, these guys are insane! Those two attacks alone would probably kill me already.
Mobius pelted Ein with green lightning and her shadow formed spears that bombarded his position. Hua turned into a pheonix and soared high up into the air. Eden raised her hands and an immense shock wave fired, making a huge explosion of dust from the attack, and the ground shaked like it was hit by an earthquake.
Su started to communicate with everyone, making a mental link. "Mei-san, hit him with everything you got! Anything!" As she drew her blade and red lightning appeared all over.
She gave a slash as a titanic crescent slash tore the ground asunder. Raining lightning everywhere. Hua reached her desired height and went straight down like a missile.
"My blade is formless, but needs no form. It is formless but vast, infinity its span. Its essence, divine. And ends where it began. Emminence! Fenghuang down 1st order!"
A huge blade of fire appeared as it slashed everything apart. A deep red line appeared that was miles long, the ground was scorched and molten rock oozed like a volcano erupted.
Mei was speechless. She didn't know Fu Hua could make an attack like that. She felt powerless from their display.
Kevin then held the judgement of shamash, Elysia with Abyss flower, and Eden with Cosmic harmony.
"0th power. Might of An-Utu." The judgement of Shamash burned bright like a star as it blinded Mei. He's going to use the full power of the sword! She protected her eyes with honkai energy and watched with bated breath.
Eden then held the guns on her hand. "0th power. World Devourer." orbs of black appeared as stones, rubble. Anything, started to float and was devoured by the black orbs. Mei immediately anchored herself or die to the overwhelming gravity, she could see it even distort the light around it.
Elysia raised the lance high above. "I am the black that devours everything. I am the white that gave birth to everything.
Before the birth of the world, I existed after the annihilation. Black Abyss White Flower, Holy Lance Banish Bloom!"
It emitted a black and white light as it pierced the heavens and she flew high up in the sky.
Kevin then roared as he swung the great sword with all his might as a tsunami of flames washed over everything. The intense heat even burning Mei as she struggled to protect herself.
Eden aimed the guns and the black orbs descended. It expanded to gigantic proportions as the ground shaked. It caused an earthquake so strong, it was felt for thousands of miles.
Elysia threw the lance with overwhelming force as it hit the ground. Black and white clashed as the impact made a shockwave that blew everything away. Anything the light touched turned into nothing.
Mei looked at the display of power as she sweated. If these guys are this strong, how did they even lose?
Everyone then heard a clap. "Bravo, even if the divine keys aren't real. Your control of it reached a satisfactory level, though I'm quite disappointed in your attack Mei. I told you to read up on electromagnetism."
He appeared as the dust settled. Sitting on the molten ground like he was relaxing on a couch. Small scratches and what looks like a sunburn appeared on his skin.
Everybody frowned and regrouped. "Prepare! Defend with all you have!" He shouted at the group.
"Raiden Mei. I'll show you something that even they haven't seen." He inhaled and exhaled fire. She saw it melt the surroundings, indicating its heat from just a quick and small source.
His teeth sharpened and black scales appeared on his arms. His 2 thick horns adorned his head like a crown as his pupils shrunk. Like a predator finding its prey.
The very realm shaked as everybody stayed close and deployed a thick shield. "Hmmm, I haven't shown you guys this yet. Have a taste, now let's begin."
He disappeared and Mei with her lightning quick reaction started to survey her surroundings.
He reappeared right above them, his hands raised for a hammer fist. And struck their bubble with so much force, they looked like they teleported back to the ground. The ground exploded as their shield popped like a balloon.
The impact created an explosion that vaporized them immediately, it was like a huge meteor dropping down on the world.
Mei gasped, and gulped a huge amount of air. Panting as if she just woke up from a nightmare. "Wh-what happened?" She patted her body making sure she's still in one piece.
Eden patted her head. "Relax Mei. We just died, insta killed like an ant crushed between a hydraulic press. Overkill, I know."
Ein and Elysia then hummed. "You know the rules~ and so do I~" He started to caress her smooth horns, sharing with Elysia.
"Hmm~" She quickly covered her mouth. "Oho? Are your horns sensitive Mei-chan?"
A certain white haired tuna froze and stood up while eating. "I can feel something's wrong." She then ran and tried to look for what's different.
