His soul stirred as if telling him to hurry up.
Staring at the cubes, Raiku had an inkling on what to do. It felt instinctive maybe natural, he asked Nell for a knife as he grabbed it.
Slowly on his right hand he cut his palm as he let the blood flow out of him, it dropped on to the lines of the cubes. Slowly filling it up, shockingly when the blood arrived beneath the black cube it didn't fall. It was as if it was stuck there.
Nell gasped, not at the blood not falling off but at Raiku getting pale.
"Stop! You might die from blood loss, lemme bandage it." Nell hurriedly brought some bandages, but she was stopped by Raiku.
"I know-w what im dooing" Raiku said determined,
"It's my job to take care of you" Nell responded not backing down,
"Yeah, yeah later" Raiku said as he finished filling the cube, he turned to the other cube filling it.
"Raiku!!" Nell rushed to his side seeing him starting to sway and was about to close his wound.
"Please" Raiku told her pleadingly,
Seeing this she was quite conflicted; it was at this moment the cube was also filled with blood.
WIINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
They glowed brightly as Aura's exploded from them. Instantly everyone in the palace was alerted.
SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH
Draga, his guards, Kaegar, Samus, Loid, and some other maidservants and butler appeared in the room.
Every one of them with a solemn expression looked at what was going on.
At this moment the cubes glowed even more brightly as a white beam of light pierced the roof to the skies announcing its existence to the world!
Everyone no matter how far could see a beam of light filled with unparalleled divinity!
The beams split in to two parts, as the white disappeared replaced by a black, and red light split in the middle.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
A shockwave exploded out but surprisingly it didn't hurt anyone as it dispersed to the surroundings.
It was at this moment Raiku glowed on each of his arms as he was lifted to the skies.
"WHOA!" Raiku said with sparkling eyes, while Nell watched shocked.
"RAIKU!!!" Draga instantly flew to the skies as he reached for Raiku,
BAM!
He was blocked by a forcefield.
He attacked immediately with a huge golden saber!
SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH
Furiously hacking away with overbearing attacks, he tried to destroy the forcefield. Yet no matter how he attacked he couldn't make it shake even a bit.
WIIIIIIIIIIIING
BAM!
He was pushed instantly 20 kilometers from the beam of light.
BLEH
He spat a mouthful of blood, as he death stared at the beam of light with blood shot eyes, getting up slowly, he spat out more blood. He gritted his teeth as he took a step then another.
Bam
He fell down, breathing heavily as he panted.
"Am I really so weak? It didn't even attack ME. My own f*cking son is being held by it and I can't even do anything about it." He tightened his fists till it was white as his eyes held a trace of insanity as he got up.
He forcefully moved his body... Flying back albeit slow... He was seriously injured!
The rest also tried to stop it but were helpless in front of this divine power. Each of them got flung yet surprisingly no one died.
WIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
The cubes glowed as a flash of light appeared and covered everything in black and red for a second, soon after they disappeared in to streaks of light on each of Raiku's hand.
On his right hand a red tattoo appeared on Raiku's hand, it was a symbol of a red sword. Soon after the same took place on Raiku's left hand as a black sword tattoo appeared.
They then faded as Raiku was lightly dropped from the sky and was caught by a young woman that looked to be in her 20s.
"Raiku are you okay???" She asked,
No response.
"Raiku??? Raiku!!!" She kept calling his name,
No response.
She frowned; she clearly felt her son was awake till a moment ago. She then moved him to the royal chambers, him on the bed and waited right there for him to wake up while scanning his body.
**********************************
[A day later]
"Huh why hasn't he awoken??" the young woman sitting next to the bed asked out loud,
"Mary Just be patient" Draga said but still looked at the Physician.
The physician called from few hours ago replied,
"I don't know.... I've never encountered such a situation! He clearly has an abundant amount of vitality; he should've woken up some hours ago."
"What do you mean you don't know?! You are one of the greatest physicians in the kingdom." She said threatening.
Seeing the physician confused, and his wife about to explode Draga saw him out.
Looking at his son, he felt his heart bitter.
The first time he let his son go out something huge happened. And he as the father couldn't even stop it...
"It's my fault... If only I was strong enough" He tightened his fists while thinking that. A handheld his hand as he and his wife stared at each other.
After a long while they sighed and could only hope nothing bad happened, but there was a high hope for that cause with such a power Raiku could've died with just a slap. But he didn't.
Then again, they weren't even sure if he was ever going to wake up...
