Chapter 14 - 14. Fall Of The Moon

*Clang* the sound of metal clashing against metal reverberated throughout the entirety of this land full of dead bodies.

Two men were staring each other standing admits a destroyed city shaded in silver, although destroyed, the city could still said to be the very display of wonder.

"You may have rebuild your Silver City, but there is no army to back you up, I will destroy the very existence of this Moon along with it's God" said a man in golden armour that complimented his golden hair and eyes, with sharp fierce features, the man looked like the very definition of power and authority.

"Yeah, not going to happen Sol, your army is dead and you are next" said Luna dressed in white skin tight majestic silver armour, before dodging an incoming axe slash.

Using the momentum he gained from dodging, Luna twisted his body to land a roundhouse sword slash aiming at Sol's neck.

"[exades cernce solis]" chanted Sol and just as he did that a burst of flame emerged from his body, as soon as these flame hit Luna, a explosion was created sending Luna flying back a few metres.

As the dust settled Luna could be seen with no right hand, "Mercy O' Goddess Isis [Sanae]"

Soon as he finished his chant, a bright light enveloped his right hand and his hand grew back.

"Ho, you're chanting to heal and regenerate... why aren't you using your dark archangel to just grow back your arm?" asked Sol raising his eyebrows and his axe.

"I don't need no angel to end you" said Luna in a cold voice "Drink my blood and rise again" chanted Luna while looking at his silver sword that broke earlier by Sol's attack, the broken sword turned red and grew it's blade back.

"Is it the matter of pride... I didn't took you for a fool, the ones who die for their pride. I'm not like those so I'll bring on whatever I have to end you right here, and after that finally, I'll have your [Mana Drive]" said Sol with a smirk.

"Come forth [Surya]" Sol's body began enveloping in a bright golden light, the light grew bigger by the second and when the light finally dulled a 500 meter tall, translucent golden humanoid Ethereal giant with blazing wings was standing high, in the heart of it was Sol, standing up there facing Luna.

Luna without mustering a word, tightened his grip around his sword to face against a giant whose hight reached the heavens.

"Still won't manifest your archangel?" asked Sol with an arched eyebrow hoping for Luna to finally manifest his giant.

Although not waiting for long he chanted yet again "[Sumum Igniso]", as if mimicking Sol's movement, the Ethereal giant opened it's palm and faced it towards Luna.

A giant blaze of flames was emerged from it, completely eating Luna whole, but immediately a chant was be heard

"[Devoure]" a the flames suddenly stated disappearing into thin air, when the flames subsided, Luna could be seen standing with his palm open and at the end of his palm was a dark ball. As if a black hole, that dark ball devoured every last bit of flames in the air.

"Yeah I forgot you had this spell, but even you have limit, you have to pull your archangel or my next spell will be your last" said Sol in an annoyed tone.

Without waiting for Sol to say anything further or bothering to reply, Luna jumped forward to reach the Ethereal winged giant's heart, where Sol was standing like a king.

As soon as he reached Sol's height, Luna mustered a chant "[Caesa Erus Caligo]"

Luna's blade started to envelope something that could be said to be the opposite of light, the closest word would be... 'Darkness'.

Sol's eyes widened in shock but immediately, as if coming back to reality he chanted a single word "[Pàfsi]"

Sol in his Ethereal giant disappeared, and appeared behind Luna in a matter of split second.

As if almost predicting this beforehand, Luna twisted his body in the mid air and slashed his sword cutting nothing but air.

The dark energy that was enveloping his sword travelled in an arc and hit the giant in the chest, where Sol was.

The cut pierced through the chest of the giant and landed on Sol. Although it wasn't enough to make Sol bleed, a red bruise did occurred on his shoulder.

"You've grown weak Luna, the spell you used could cut through the very fabric of space, yet just after cutting through my [Surya], it had almost no power left behind it" said Sol with a frown before it hit him.

"You've blessed a mortal haven't you! But how!!? I almost destroyed your soul last time, how did you managed to get enough power to travel back to Midlands!!!" exclaimed Sol in disbelief

"Hahahaha bold of you to assume I travelled 'back' to Midlands" said Luna while laughing mockingly after landing back on the ground.

"I see, so instead of coming back to Moon and heal your soul through your [Mana Drive], you thought the best decision would be to bless someone and put your hopes in them" said Sol with a disappointed look.

"I'm disappointed Luna, to think that you will make such a foolish decesion, not only you've blessed someone but you've also passed your legacy to them, what if they can't stand up me like you can?... Nevermind if it's true then this battle is over, this is you end" with finished saying what he had to, Sol chanted a spell

"[Suryastra]" the giant raised his hand right high and flew up, it was a majestic sight to behold.

As the giant flew up, as he gained altitude a sun started forming in it's raised right hand. After reaching the atmosphere of moon, the sun radius was about 20km wide.

"It's over" after saying that Sol dropped his hand down, and mimicking his movements again the Ethereal giant dropped his hand down too, the sun that was formed was now descending onto the Moon's surface with astonishing speed.

"Indeed it is" said Luna with a bitter smile, "[Indrastra]" shouted Luna with last bit of his strength, a devine looking arrow made of black lightning was manifested in Luna's hand, Luna threw the arrow with all his might as a final attempt.

"It's no use, even you can't fight a spell casted with the help of [Surya] unless you pull out your own archangel and besides no mat--- What!!" Sol exclaimed while cutting off his own sentence as he couldn't believe his eyes.

The Arrow wasn't aimed at descending sun but on him.

Instead of trying to cancel Sol's spell with his last spell, Luna decided to injure Sol.

Sol couldn't even dodge as he realised that, the speed of lightning spell are fastest among all types of ranged spell, besides this spell was casted by a God, much like him.

Instead of trying to dodge Sol braced himself for the incoming impact by crossing Ethereal giant's arms.

*Booom* A loud and wide explosion occurred as the arrow hit Sol and sun hit the moon surface at the same time.

A bright light was emitted, which remained for about 10 minutes, as the seconds passed the light grew dull, when the light disappeared Sol could be seen.

With his right side body almost destroyed the man spoke "Maybe he was stronger than me after all..." while looking at the destroyed Moon.

The Moon was destroyed in pieces and the middle of it was a blue 15m big cube, the cube was spinning rapidly, soon though the speed subsided and now it was still, suspended in space.

"So close yet so far" said Sol while looking at the cube.

He then turned his head looked at the dead body of Luna floating in space, the body was dissipating into light particles slowly.

"All because of you" said Sol before seemingly turning into a beam of light.

The light beam traveled to Sun in a matter of few seconds.

After a week of blood bath and war cries reverberating throughout, the space was once again quite, as it should be.
