Luck being alone on the boat with only the knocked-out people or those that didn't possess enough mana to be considered as an entity to enter the SMZ
'I have to stop the ship...' Luck thought as he was about to go to the control center
But something stopped him, well someone
"Stop right there kid! You will not step even one foot away from where you are standing!" A somewhat old man with a beard told him as he held a metallic pipe
Slowly more people picked up a weapon and walked toward Luck
"I'm a divine just so you know! I wouldn't be so confident with those little pipes if I was you!" Luck said with a smile
It was a bluff
Luck didn't have any mana and no bullets, so he had an unarmed gun and a regular sword
"Don't go around saying stuff like that kid when we know damn well you are here because you have no mana! We are here for the same reason" The bearded guy said with a smile as he started getting closer and closer
DASH
Luck rushed at the guys to the right of the bearded guy and attacked them with the sword and since all the others had to defend themselves was either pipes or wood Luck could easily disarm them and attack them
He mostly aimed the legs with his sword, because he still refused to kill those people
CLANK
The iron pipe of the breaded man and Luck's sword clashed, making this deafening sound
"Don't go around beating my guys idiot! I will kill you!" The man said with a smile
Luck then ducked down and kicked his legs throwing him off his balance and then he pushed him with his leg while also creating some distance between him and the other armed guys
The fight was clearly something Luck had to go above and beyond to win, no regular person could overpower so many people by himself
"Why don't you have any guns?" Luck asked in order to buy some time
"They are mana gadgets kid, do you think they can't get into a SMZ? But the most important stuff you probably want is inside the special mana-nullifying safes in the storage room, we have no keys to them sadly, if he had then you would be gone by now!"
"Then I can win!" Luck said with a smile
It was as if he was trying to fool not only them, but himself too
…
"So how long are you planning to keep this SMZ up Lucifer? Don't you think it's over yet?" Caroline asked as she stared at Lucifer making sure he didn't get away or try to help anyone
"Nah I think my guys got it! Plus It's fun being here! We can talk and share information, it's like two governments that are at war discussing their situation, for some boring, and for others it is entertaining like hell!" Lucifer described as he stared at the clear sky
Suddenly the injured Abet emerged from inside the forest surrounding the area where Lucifer and the others were
"Did you lose? Man, that's embarrassing after telling them I'm sure you got it! How about Daniel? Did he lose too?" Lucifer asked with a defeated look on his face
"Probably yes, I don't sense any mana coming from him and if he did win he would have probably gotten here before me" Abet said as he took deep breaths
"Floga and Destiny did it..." Caroline mumbled as she smiled
"It looks like it's over no? You lost, Abet lost, and Daniel lost too, how about we return to the cargo and solve our problems peacefully?" Gnomon suggested
Without saying anything Lucifer started laughing obnoxiously loud
"I lost huh? I see you think Caroline won this fight, don't you? No worries, I don't plan on killing anyone today, I just wanted the ship to be delivered safely, and with you six out of the way I can easily do it, Luck can't stop the ship by any means so that's basically two birds with one stone, I can provide my people mana enhanced items while also abducting Luck, so you might win the fight but you will lose the war!"
At that moment Caroline froze for a second before her anger exploded into an intimidating mana aura
"Break this SMZ, you bastard!" Caroline said as she glared into Lucifer's eyes
"I can't, even if I wanted to! I just set a timer before casting it and I just relax until it's over so lay back and relax for a bit and like proper mana warriors let's bet on who we think will win!"
…
On this breathtaking day in a massive ship with multimillion-dollar cargo, only two individuals were standing, their bodies drenched in sweat and blood, defiantly facing each other and trying to catch their breath
"You took the whole team out you crazy kid..." The breaded man said
"What? You doubted that I could do that? Please!" Luck said as blood ran down his eyes making his vision a bit more blurry and red
With his hands still shaking and his legs barely supporting his body weight Luck used the last of his strength to dash toward the man and with all of his might and D E T E R M I N A T I O N
SLASH
The pipe was cut in half and the man was cut down, Luck was officially the victor of the big fight, he achieved this win without the need to kill
'I have to stop this boat, the others are risking their lives so what I'm doing here is nothing but child's play...' Luck thought as he crawled slowly to the control room of the ship
While crawling Luck could only think about how his friends were doing inside the SMZ he didn't get to enter, but he needed to believe and he knew that, he believed that they were alright
'Floga wouldn't let Destiny or himself die in a place like that and as for the others... Caroline is with them when that's the case I needn't worry about them, ironically I'm the one that's more in danger right now and I don't worry about myself, I think after this fight it's all over and I won, how naïve right Hope?'
"Hope?" Teras wondered out loud
'Why did I call for her? I told her not to worry about me but here I am calling out her name in vain after every little inconvenience...' Luck thought as he managed to stand up and take the stairs to the control room
After many minutes Luck reached the control room
"How the hell do I even use this?" Luck wondered out loud
'It's a bit late for that now' Luck thought as he created a single explosive bullet with the little mana he had recovered
He then armed the gun and fired at the control panel
The ship started to slow down very gradually so Luck pulled some other levers that activated the anchor
The loud and menacing sound the chains made while the anchor dropped was deafening and the impact the anchor had with the earth also made the ship shake
"EMERGENCY STOP ACTIVATED, SENDING OUT THE DESTROYER. MODE: ABADDON"
That was the message delivered from the speakers inside the control room
As soon as this was heard a loud sound of metals hitting each other was heard from the bottom of the ship slowly coming up, the sound then reached the control room
Luck stared with his eyes wide open
It was a robotic figure that resembled a demon, it had mana...
"Unfamiliar mana detected! Yell out the code for verification" The robot said
"What..." Luck mumbled
"False! Extermination of the intruder will start in 3...2...1"
As soon as the counting ended Luck was launched outside the control room from the window, the robot hit him very fast
'My arms...' Luck thought as he tried moving them
But that wasn't Luck's biggest concern, the problem was how he would land unharmed
'This is life or death... Put every single drop of mana you have in your legs Luck and land perfectly, or else'
"I'm dead" Luck said as he managed to land on the ship by sustaining little to no injury
Luck smiled while trying to not fade from abusing the little mana he had
The smile was quickly wiped off his face as soon as the robot jumped from the control room, landing some meters away from Luck
"I guess that's how will the vessel of the light mana spirit will die huh? I fucking hate this, HEY AURUMIA WHERE ARE YOU, YOU BIIIIIIIIIIITCH!!!" Luck screamed from the top of his lungs
The robot tried to attack Luck but a wave of golden mana pushed it back
Overflowing with golden mana Luck raised the hand in which he was holding the pistol and fired at the robot, the robot dodged the bullet that went out of its way to destroy all of the control room
The robot tried to attack Luck from his left but Luck easily predicted the attack and tried to slash the robot, he failed, the only thing he cut was a big part of this and the ocean, creating a path in the bottom of the water that quickly covered up with water once again
"I don't need this trash" Luck said as he broke both of his weapons
The robot couldn't understand what was happening, it wasn't programmed to fight people like Luck
"Go to hell trash" Luck said as he ripped off the robot's head
BOOM
The robot exploded a bit delayed, it didn't even register Luck dashing at it and killing it
Upon hearing the explosion some people that Luck fought before woke up, they were dizzy but they could still fight
"What the hell is happening? How did this kid get this strong?" A guy said as he slowly took steps away from Luck
But the untamed golden warrior didn't hold back even if his opponent was a defeated man
With a single emotionless punch, Luck crushed the skull of the man, killing him on the spot
All the others that witnessed it quickly tried to jump off the ship but some unfortunate souls didn't escape the golden demon
One guy was electrocuted by Luck, and another was squashed to death by the gravity power Luck had, as for the others that tried to escape?
Luck used his gravity power to lift the ship from the sea, and because of the sudden lift up most of the people swimming away we pulled under the ship by the sea, Luck then let go of the ship resulting in crashing them
"Why are you doing this you monster? You won alright you don't have to kill us! We have families waiting for us at home, what will you say to all of their family members who will miss them" The bearded man said as he grabbed Luck from his clothes
Surprised the man saw Luck tearing up
"Let go of him" Luck said as he punched the man
The man managed to survive a single punch but was heavily injured on the ground, facing the sky
'Is this the last thing I see before dying? I guess a cloudy blue sky isn't so bad of a sight...' The bearded man thought as he was slowly closing his eyes
But before he fully closed his eyes he saw Luck and his golden mana, he then saw nothing
…
"Looks like time is up! And by the sight of what happened here, I think you won for now, I will take Abet and Daniel and will dip, enjoy the ship, it's all yours!" Lucifer said with a smile as he grabbed Abet
He then disappeared and with his disappearance, Eden's garden also vanished
Most of the UMP members were again on board
Everyone who fought saw each other and smiled, it was nice knowing everyone was alive
Risha's injury was quite the rotten apple in this reunion but other than that they sustained no casualties
"LUCK! Where is he?" Caroline yelled after not seeing him together with everyone
It was quite obvious where Luck was, he was the only person standing on this red-coated ship
"L-Luck?" Destiny said as she slowly approached Luck
Luck slowly turned around, his golden mana was going berserk
Luck dashed at them with no good intentions, thankfully Caroline was there to face Luck
"What are you doing Luck? Did you lose your shit again?" Caroline asked with a smile of desperation as she stared at Luck's eyes
Luck simply ripped off Caroline's arms, dashed behind her, and kicked her across the ship making her crash at the remaining of the control tower
Luck's next target was his first, Destiny
Luck dashed at Destiny but instead of killing her he simply grabbed her shoulders
"No I don't want to kill her, please stop this, if I kill another one of my friends I won't be able to take it anymore" Luck said as his tears soaked all of his face
And suddenly he passed out...
"What the hell just happened?" Floga wondered
The others were speechless
Destiny on the other hand started healing Luck
"He is hurt can't you see?"
Her hands were shaking while healing Luck
Floga held Destiny's hands and hugged her
"Calm down, he lost control he would never hurt you or Caroline" Floga said
Destiny then started to cry out of fear and sadness
"We left him behind we are responsible for all those killings, not Luck"
Destiny could hardly phrase this sentence because of her crying
"Nobody is responsible here kids! You are all under my care so I will take responsibility, Floga take Destiny and go home, Caroline is probably fine since she is a demon, and we will clean up with all this mess we made so relax and go home" Kamira said as she patted both Floga and Destiny on their head
