After the battle Dante wakes up at the base of his division. What happened he said. then he tries to stand up from his bed but he is unable to due to all the injuries he sustained.
Lucy: Everyone Dante is awake.
They all rush to Dante's room.
how are you feeling, asked Erza. Dante replied that he's fine just that his body has not fully healed yet. As they kept on talking, Dante remembers what happened and quickly asked Sasuke about the villagers and Yasuke.
Sasuke: they survived. it seems Yasuke only killed those who resisted but spared the life of some people.
Dante: then how did I end up here? Because I know that my attack couldn't have fully injured him.
Sasuke: Yes you are right u didn't even damage him in the slightest. let me explain what happened after the battle.
3 Days ago
After Dante launched the attack with all his Rin, he collapsed due to the heavy toll it took on his body.
Am surprised that someone who hasn't received enough training was able to hit me, said Yasuke as he stands near Dante's body.
Sasuke: So are you going to kill him?.
Yasuke: No I will let the both of you live for now. Afterall why kill you kids who might have the potential to give me what I've been searching for. I want you to grow stronger so that when the time comes, I wouldn't feel bad killing you. oh! I almost forgot here are the rest of the villagers.
He flicks his finger and all the remaining villagers appears. Yasuke opens a portal and leaves the place. after Yasuke was gone, the village chief approached Sasuke and thanked him for what they did.
Sasuke: there is no need to thank us we only did what is expected of a knight of Avilor.
As they kept on talking, Dante let out a loud scream out of pain. Sasuke rashes to his body. Dante, Dante as he kept on calling his name in a frustrated tone.
Village chief: It seems his body is getting destroyed from the inside.
Sasuke: Getting destroyed. how?
The chief: Have you ever heard of Rin backlash.
Sasuke: Yes I have. isn't it when your Rin energy overflows and moves backwards instead of flowing forward. Wait don't tell me..
Sasuke notices that Dante Rin energy is moving back to his heart instead of flowing through his body in a straight line.
There are two types of Rin backlash. the one which is caused by an immense overflow of Rin energy which one doesn't have full mastery of or getting hit with an extremely powerful attack that breaks your Rin protective aura and reverses its flow. The backlash can cause severe pains as it tears all your Rin channels and once it reaches your heart it causes your body to explode. Most skilled Rin users are able to control the backlash and reset their entire Rin flow through proper breathing circulation but if not done properly it can cause instant death. now Dante is suffering from all these two types of Backlash which is destroying both his body and Rin channels at an immense speed.
Sasuke: Is there no way you can help him please.
Chief: there is one but the chances of him surviving are very slim. carry him and follow me now.
Sasuke carries Dante and follows the old man into an underground tunnel. they enter a room which is filled with mysterious glowing stones, ores, weapons and a large green pool.
Sasuke: is that a jade pool?
Chief: yes it is and if I won't bluff I think is the largest jade pool in the entire Kingdom. it is fueled with the Rin energy of many mythical beasts. Normally no one apart from the head of the Beastrin family and I are allowed here but what that kid did today touched my heart. I can't just let him die and call myself an elder that would be unacceptable. now then drop him gently inside the pool.
Sasuke drops Dante gently inside the pool. the chief begins to chant some strange ancient words. suddenly the jade pool begins to boil as it cleanses Dante's body and reconstruct his body. suddenly Dante's begins to absorb the energy of the jade pool and after some hours he had completely absorbed the energy of the jade pool, cleansed his body of all impurities and healed his Rin circuits.
Chief: this is impossible. his body and core is like a void ready to devour everything. is like he's an endless pit of unfathomable power. in my entire life I've never seen anyone who has been able to absorb the power of the jade pool at such speed apart from the Beastrin Family head but absorbing all of its power is just incredible. with this after he wakes up his body, power, mind and spirit would be upgraded to new heights. now he's just a walking vessel of raw power.
