Chapter 14 - Vengeance and Peace

Payne rushed at the man with multiple twin jabs, all hit perfectly but the nobleman just kept laughing while he was being hit, Payne in rage didn't care what the man's feelings was, he could only hear one thing in his mind, the words his mother said when he was still little.

"my dear Toumura, you'll be stronger than I am someday, I love you, my dear boy."

Tears rolled down his eyes, but with no sign of sadness only rage and despair, he looked to the nobleman and rushed with another punch, he got the nobleman on the ground defenceless, he jumped on him and rushed jabs at his face continuously, the nobleman let him have his own share of satisfaction and then pushed him back with a powerful wave of air.

"Enough, I let you beat me and this is all you could do, with all this power you gained you can't still inflict pain, you're a wimp, I am the supreme to the fourth pillars seat, my name is Aizawa Hakido, you see my ability is climate control, I'm letting you in on this so you'll prepare because I won't go easy on you like you did me."

The man raised his hands and then called two powerful affinities, merged them into one and formed a blade, Payne hadn't still come back to his senses so he rushed at the man, the nobleman slash waves straight at Payne as he ran toward him and thunder waves came at Payne, the slashes were slow so he evaded them but one hit him, Payne felt the shock, he knew the weight of the power If only he could calm down, he tried to calm down, while he was trying to get up the man spoke again.

"Your mother deserved to be the supreme of the fourth pillar but she meddled with humans and so I killed her and took her position, and now I'll send you to her, your mother was always so calm, but she was so strong, she could have been the fifth strongest nobleman but then again, she had a weakness like every other person, you were her weakness, any strong person must never have a weakness, because the birth of their weakness will lead to their downfall just like your mother."

Payne stood and looked at the man, "what you said just now is rubbish, there always a weakness behind every strength, no strength comes without a weakness and if you say I was my mother's weakness, then I'll turn it around and tell you she was and is still my strength I can't be consumed by rage, if I'm going to kill you I'll need a clear head."

Payne stood up and cleaned his tears, he called for his Mjolnir and rushed at the nobleman.

"wow, I can see you inherited your mother's Mjolnir, I could never beat her with it lets see If I can beat you."

Both guys rushed at each other, striking their weapons at themselves, the clash was intense destroying everything around them, the nobleman smiled at the power Payne was giving out, he quickly changed his attack strategy, and attacked head on, he was fast that Payne couldn't tell where he was going to strike, Payne then used his mirage skill and deploy as much clones of him self as he could, the nobleman was shocked, he attacked the first one he saw hoping it was the real deal but it was the mirage, he charged all his clones and gave out a shout,

"judgement strike — Devils punishment."

All the clone came at the nobleman with a punch, the punch from the clones pinched a little, the real Payne came out and strikes with his own,the nobleman fell at the strike and said to him.

"You have fought me well, I'll repay you now."

The nobleman got up and ran straight for Payne , he then started hoping from one location to the other breaking the visual Payne has of him, them he started striking Payne, with his sword he cut Payne, the nobleman didn't even break a sweat, he kept on cutting and cutting, with every single cut Payne became weaker and weaker, he wonder why until the nobleman spoke.

"Ragnarok, is a blend of thunder, lightning and storm, the three main calamities of the heavens, my sword seals all mana, so once I've cut you, your strength, magic, speed, they all reduce, so I'm sorry but this is where it ends boy."

The Nobleman came at Payne in speed, with his sword pointed straight at Payne making it clear he was going with a stab, Payne tried to move but he was engulfed in fear, as the nobleman drew closer Payne became weaker, suddenly Payne remembered his own words, he remembered he said he'd need a clear head to fight the nobleman man, the Nobleman's strike got closer and at the last minute Payne's mood and presence change, the nobleman felt it but attacked anyway, he ran straight for Payne and just as he was about to stab him it was as though a barrier was put up.

Payne looked up to the nobleman and smiled saying, "you would have won me with ease from the very beginning till this moment, but not today anymore, you call my mother's name with such disrespect, I shall not go for less, I am going with your head."

Payne himself didn't know what he had tapping into, he ran for the Nobleman faster than he could ever run, as the nobleman man looked into his eyes they were clouded with darkness, with just his red pupil to light then up, the nobleman man said to Payne,

"your eyes, this is ancient power, Berserker, this is only possible if you were an ancient creature, a Ghoul, you have really tapped into something, you are really strong, I guess it was meant to be."

Payne didn't pay attention he just kept on running, the nobleman then surrenders himself and says to Payne, "your mother was my very good friend and my superior, after all she did with your dad, she knew the noblemen would come for her and so she pleaded with me to kill her, you see she didn't want any one else but you to inherit her Ragnarok and she knew I'd be the only to deliver it to you, so she made me kill her and so her Ragnarok became mine, and now I give the Ragnarok at my death, I'll be going to meet your mother now, be strong and I can see you already are."

Payne still didn't listen he kept one coming for the Nobleman's head with his Mjolnir, he strikes of his head and the nobleman fell, the Ragnarok left his hands and swooped to Payne hands Payne became calm and only one word came out.

"mother, I won."
