Roy looked at Alice and Sophia and got into his battle stance. Alice stared at Roy and held her polearm with a tighter grip. Sophia smiled and made the first move by forming a magic circle and firing waves of fireballs at him. Roy used his wings as a shield to block the fireballs. Alice dashed ahead toward him and bellowed then slashed at him. The blade of her polearm phased through his body then his afterimage disappeared.
"Wha-" Alice said in shock then groaned as she was struck by an invisible force. She was sent flying backwards then Roy appeared above her.
Sophia casted a protective barrier around Alice, blocking Roy's attack. Alice landed on her feet then dashed toward Roy once more. She jumped up and slashed down at him, missing because he avoided her attack then he kicked her away. Roy looked at Sophia and smirked. Sophia took a step back and she looked a bit intimidated.
"What's wrong? Can't keep up? You are Shida's retainers correct?" Roy asked then flew toward Sophia at high speeds then slashed at her.
Alice appeared in front of Sophia then her dark aura pushed Roy away. She used her aura to propel herself to Roy at high speeds then struck him with a tornado kick then spun sideways and kicked him to the ground. Roy rebounded off the ground and landed on his feet.
"Heh...You're the first person in some time to be able to land a hit on me. This is very interesting." Roy chuckled and wiped his mouth.
"This is a guy we can't take lightly...Sophia cover for me! I'm going all out." Alice said and smirked. Her eyes shined brightly. Her aura changed to a purple and black aura. Her eyes changed to a more darker purple color. Wings of darkness emerged from her back.
"Chaos Release. You really are going all out for this huh sis.." Sophia said and smiled. "She's just much better at fighting than I am...Even still I will provide her support!"
Roy looked at Alice and Sophia then chuckled. "Now this is starting to get interesting. Let's go!"
Alice flew toward Roy and bellowed then slashed at him rapidly with her polearm, but he dodged each slash then dodged a beam of light coming from Sophia. Alice snapped her fingers and multiple ice shards formed behind her then she fired them at Roy. Roy grunted and blocked them then flew off. Alice flew after him.
"Huh? W-Wait for me!" Sophia yelled then channelled her energy. Her hair turned a light pink and wings of light energy emerged from her back then her aura became angelic and she flew after the two of them.
Alice and Roy clashed with each other in the skies at high speeds then Roy parried her attack strummed his guitar, trapping her in his aura. Alice grunted as she couldn't break out of his hold. Roy was about to slash at her then a giant hand made of energy struck him, sending him crashing down. He stopped himself and looked at Sophia.
"Thanks, Sis.." Alice said as she was freed from his aura.
"Hehe!~ No problem, Alice!~" Sophia said happily.
Alice made her polearm disappear and formed two ice gauntlets on her hands. They shined a bright dark blue color and emitted a dark ice energy. She looked at Roy and got into her stance. "Sophia."
"Right!" She nodded.
Alice flew to Roy, going for a spinning kick. Roy evaded the kick then grabbed her leg then spun her around then threw her toward Sophia. Sophia looked surprised and caught Alice. Roy strummed his guitar then four orbs of light formed behind him. He sent a four at them and they struck the two then exploded upon contact. Both women yelled as they crashed to the ground.
"His power level...is rising...I can feel it." Alice said and grunted she stood up.
"How are we supposed to beat him if our Light and Dark Forms aren't enough..?" Sophia asked.
Roy landed on the ground and looked at the two. "Giving up?"
Alice looked at Roy then hatched an idea. She looked at Sophia. "Spirit Synthesis! A technique used by the high ranking Spirits in our homeland!"
"But..we have never done it before! What if it fails?" Sophia asked.
Roy watched the two and smiled then crossed his arms. "Trying out a new technique I see? Well good thing I have nothing but time on my hands. Go ahead. I'll allow you two to perform your technique until you get it right."
"What? Seriously?" Alice asked.
"Yeah. I'm curious about this...Spirit Synthesis." Roy said.
"Alright...Let's do this Sophia." Alice said.
"So how do we go this?" Sophia asked.
Alice walked to her and took her hand. "It's a process...Our auras must be in sync. Our very minds have to be in sync. Our very existences must be in sync. There is no Light without Darkness and no Darkness without Light."
Sophia looked at Alice and smiled. Alice spun Sophia around and then twirled her. Sophia fell into her arms and their bodies began shining brightly. They bodies turned into spirit energy and fused into one entity. Their hair was long and a magenta color. Their physique was more mature and developed. They had a dark and a light wing coming from their back. The clothes they wore was similar to their normal attire, a battle maiden dress.
"So this is Fusion. I wonder what kind of power you two can come up with now." Roy said.
"I am neither Alice nor Sophia. I am a being born from pure Light and Darkness. I am...Solice." Solice said then opened her eyes. They glowed a beautiful light blue hue.
"Solice huh..? Well...let's see how strong you are now." Roy said.
Solice looked at Roy then smirked. Her aura surged powerfully around herself. She got into a battle stance then flew toward him at high speeds, catching Roy off guard. She punched his face, sending him flying then teleported. Roy landed on the ground and rolled backwards then recovered onto his feet. Solice appeared in front of him then kneed his stomach. He groaned and coughed a bit. He was sent flying to the air.
Solice chuckled and powered up even more. Her aura struck Roy and dealt damage to him. She flew up to him then vanished. Roy began getting struck from all directions by Solice then she appeared above him then went for a kick. Roy's aura sparkled then his aura blew Solice away. He had entered his Archangel Form and lightning crackled around his body.
Solice looked at Roy. "So you want to power up as well? Well let's turn this battle up even more! This is what I call Henshin Mode!" She bellowed and her aura surged powerfully around the aura.
"Fusion is so amazing..! Their power level...is rapidly growing..!" Roy said and felt his heart racing. "I haven't felt this excited to battle in a long time.."
"Let's go!" Solice roared and vanished at high speeds.
Roy bellowed and vanished at high speeds. The two clashed and caused a slight shockwave in the air.
Rue felt it and looked up from her guitar. "The hell was that..?"
Solice and Roy clashed multiple times as they flew across the skies. Solice parried his next attack then punched his stomach and smirked. She blew him away with a light energy blast then appeared behind him and formed a sword of ice then slashed him with rapid succession then kicked him to the ground. She raised her hands in the air then dark energy surrounded her hands.
"Take this!! Malefic Storm!" She bellowed then aimed at Roy, firing waves of dark purple beams at him.
Roy dodged the beams and flew off, continuing to dodge the flurry of dark energy beams. He was eventually caught in the fusillade and groaned. He grunted then bellowed and roared as his energy surged powerfully. He escaped the beam barrage then flew toward Solice, striking her face. She looked surprised then was sent flying across the skies. She stopped herself and blocked Roy's next attack.
"Crap...I only have five minutes left in this form. I have to end this quickly!" Solice bellowed and palmed Roy's stomach.
He groaned then was struck and crashed to the ground. He flew back up and she flew to him then punched each other's faces. They pushed each other back and began clashing rapidly then Solice kicked him away then fired a massive energy beam at Roy. He blocked the beam and grunted. He broke out of the attack then summoned his Excalifret and strummed it. Roy smirked as he had trapped Solice in his aura. Solice was caught off guard then Roy flew toward her kicked her upwards.
"Now you'll understand my true power! Heavenly Gates: Light Crash!" He bellowed and a bright holy light shined above Solice then a pillar of light struck them.
Solice yelled in pain then grunted as she tried to resist the power. She closed her eyes tightly and felt herself growing weaker. "Master...I can't fail you..!"
"They are resisting one of my strongest attacks..?! Just who are these two?!" Roy said in shock.
"We are...Shida's... Retainers!!" Solice bellowed and broke out of the pillar and her aura sparkled. Lightning crackled around her body as she had entered her Super Henshin Mode. Her hair had turned blue and sparkles began to flow around her. "D-Dammit..."
Solice's body shined then defused. Alice and Sophia panted heavily as they were spend from their energy. Roy looked at them and smiled at them.
"Such a performance...Getting fusion correctly first try. Keeping up with my Archangel Form. You two are definitely prodigies. I can tell you both trained very hard." Roy said. "I wonder if she's been doing some training as well.."
"She?" Alice asked.
"Oh just a yound lady I met a few days ago. Her name was Rue I believe. She's strong for what she is, she just has to hone her abilities more." Roy said.
All three felt my power level and grunted, holding their heads. Sophia looked ahead in shock. Alice was also as surprised as Sophia was.
"I knew he was holding back power...but not this much..!" Roy said and looked back. "Is that your Master?"
"Master Shida, yes. This is his energy. We haven't felt it in so long we forgot he was capable of such. Sophia we have to go there!" Alice said.
"Y-Yeah!" Sophia nodded.
Roy watched the two fly off then decided to fly after them. "The high double digit millions...He's close to reaching Aeon's strength. His potential is massive if he's already this strong. He isn't even in his prime yet..."
