Chapter 31 - The Showdown In Front Of The Monark Regius

Joki Yawns.

Kazu, and Reima both notice that Joki, more than anything, is extremely tired.

"It's out of the ordinary for you to be this tired, especially with how you've done only so little training compared to everyone else."

"Hey! I still worked hard, you know!"

As Joki responds to Kazu, Reima walks up behind Joki, and puts her hand on his back.

"Aura feel"

Reima's hand begins to glow blue, with this ability she can sense the aura of others and gauge the amount of power they have used.

"Joki, you are extremely drained of Reiki. What have you been doing all this time to be this low?"

"You two just whip out powers like nothing, don't you? Alright fine, I used my ability for the last month we had of training to make it so Double wouldn't feel any exhaustion at all while training."

Kazu is dumbfounded.

Joki looks over to him in confusion as Kazu begins to question him.

"How is that even possible, you can just do really about anything. It's just like when we met you. The things you were doing were completely out of the ordinary."

"Well, I guess it is about time I explain my ability to you guys. You are like my family at this point, it wouldn't be right to hide it from you."

Joki proceeds to put his finger in the air, it glows a bright orange and pink color.

The glow of colors disappears, and Reiki begins to flow within Joki.

"My Reiki ability is called Logoskinesis. I learned that this power has the ability to pretty much manipulate the laws of logic itself. I can make the impossible possible, although even a power like this is much too strong for someone like me. So i can only use it at basic levels."

'Logic manipulation, so I was right. When we fought Kashikoi, he was able to teleport, and do some crazy stuff. Joki himself didn't look aware of what he was doing, though. In combat skill, he's unmatched, but when it comes to Reiki usage, he's like a little child.'

Meanwhile.

Double is flying in the distance, with shock waves bursting him forward at his feet.

"Whew! This place looks just as awesome as when I first saw it. Everything looks amazing, sadly I have to cause some havoc."

"Sylphs! Give me some energy in my right arm."

Double's arm fills with wind circling around it, and he puts his hand out, aiming right in the middle of the Galeria.

"Zephyros' Thunderclap!"

He closes his hand, makes a fist, cocks it back, and launches a punch that sends out a shockwave so large it covers half of the Monark Regius.

The entire area of people get knocked back completely, everyone gets blown out of the way but not harmed.

"Everyone! Stay out of my way immediately, unless you want to get hurt. I want you to tell me where Seikatsu is."

"What have you done?"

Double turns around, and notices Messorem standing there looking completely disturbed.

"Seikatsu...and Vanus, they told us that you three were killed by Vanus's ability. Double, you shouldn't be doing this."

"Well look at me, and ask yourself, is that the truth? Once again, that bastard has lied to you, to all of you people!

Double turns around, and sees the office that Seikatsu had brought them too when they had first arrived.

Messorem is frozen, he decides to not try and stop Double. The rest of the people in the open begin to yell at Double as he stares.

"Hey! That's the Royal Chamber of Commerce. You are a filthy intruder who just wants to rob us and disturb the peace. You have no right to stare at the office where our master sleeps."

"I see, so you're telling me that's where he is huh?"

Double with one fist launches a small shockwave at the office.

The shockwave bust opened the top of the office completely, revealing no one inside.

"Double! I don't understand. Do you understand the risks you are taking by doing this? The other Migaka are probably already on their way as we speak. I'm trying to tell you, you have to leave."

"You are all such blinded idiots, each and every last one of you. Don't you understand! That bastard has been tricking you, and using you all to make some twisted home of his. As I rip and tear through this place, you all call home, ask yourself, Where is your master now!"

The entire area becomes quiet.

Suddenly, two Migaka, Ishona, and Ardor appear beside Messorem.

"How is this possible, this brat should be dead. Vanus told us he ended his life a long time ago. I knew I shouldn't have trusted you."

"The issue is you've all placed your trust in the wrong person, you're fooling yourselves by picking a fight with me."

Ishona begins to laugh alongside Ardor, Messorem pulls out his sword with hesitation, and points it at Double.

They begin to walk forward.

"Well, I'll be damned, you don't have that little tremble in your body from the last time we came face to face. In the time we've been gone, you went, and got stronger. But what will you do when you are all alone?"

"Alone? Trust me, I wouldn't face you guys if I didn't bring my family along with me."

"Family?"

All of a sudden, Joki, Reima, and Kazu all appear out of nowhere, standing side by side with Double.

The Migaka all take a step back, feeling the tremendous Reiki of all four of them.

"Double, you went and started a damn war with these guys without even informing us. What the hell is your problem?"

"Sorry Sensei!"

Double begins to laugh a little at Joki's words.

Ishona wastes no time, and proceeds to throw a punch at Double. Double dodges with ease and pushes Ishona's arm up, getting ready for a strike.

"Seismic Impact"

Double punches Ishona straight in his gut, and the impact begins to cause objects around them to shatter. Ishona gets flown almost entirely out of the Monark Regius, but lands on his two feet.

"I still gotta work on the timing of that attack, but it seems like it was effective enough to deal some damage."

"Double, sit this one out for a second. You've done enough for the time being. I let you have your fun, and now it's time for me to have mine okay."

"No fair!"

Reima, Joki, and Kazu smack Double on the back of his head and look back at the Migaka standing there starstruck.

Joki walks forward, and pulls out his sword fearlessly in front of all of them.

"Now listen, Double said one thing that couldn't be more correct. These guys are my family now, and they will always be my family. I want to save all of you. But if you lay a hand on my family, I will mercilessly kill every last one of you."
