Chapter 8 - the first great arcane war.

I could not live with the death of of wife so I descended down a dark path. During the 20 years , I gained some strength obtaining my 4th tattoo and that's when I done the unthinkable.

"DEAR HUMANITY. I DECLARE WAR ON ALL OF YOU"

"YOU EITHER FIGHT WITH ARCANE OR DIE TRYING TO LEARN IT"

"You will have 7 days to learn the power of arcane"

*the first day*

"You guys we have to teach the people arcane." Said Siro

"Why should we? Don't you think dad was right about humans. How they only do terrible things to us? Why should we help them if they didn't help dad. Why should we help them if they killed grandpa. Why should we help them if they will betray us". Said durav

"he is going to kill them all" said truso.

"If we don't fight for humanity, there won't be humanity to fight for".

"DURAV HE LEFT US".

"He didn't care about us"

"All he cared about was getting stronger". Said Siro

"This is the reason mom died". Said durav

"She welcomed humanity but they didn't welcome her".

"She was too weak to survive".

"Shut up.." muttered Siro

"What did you say"?

"I SAID SHUT UP"!

"Listen said truso. If you let out your energy they will hunt us and kill us"

"If you want to fight, fight in my arcane gate"

"Arcane gate. Unbreakable cube"

*in the cube*

"You want to fight Siro, let's fight".

"Arcane technique. Dark summoning"

"You think that going to stop me" said Siro

"Not just that" said durav

"Arcane technique spectral eco".

"Arcane technique abyssal grasp"

"What is this I can't move. Never mind that how is he using all of these moves at the same time. Was it a oath with arcane itself? That can't be it. The only person who could make an oath was… Dad? Did dad teach him this? Never mind that I got to move".

"Arcane technique umbral veil".

"Where did he go? Is he invisible".

"Arcane technique shadow step".

*teleports behind Siro*

"ARCANE TECHNIQUE STELLER PROJECTION"

"Ah. I am being sucked in by the black hole. That's ok I will just get out"

"Arcane technique umbral retreat"

"YOU SCARED? YOU HAD TO RUN INTO A SHADOW"

"Maximum output. shadow merge"

"That makes more sense all them shadows he spawned all them attacks. Just to merge with them"?

" ok I can move but I need to do something".

"Arcane technique. Nebula blade".

"Arcane technique. Eclipse blade".

"Let's see who blade is stronger alright"?

The attacks carried on and got more ferocious. The speed of the blade was increasing and increasing. More and more energy started to get built up. But there was a problem. Siro was right. Nobody could use that amount of techniques without a price… and the price was that durav could not hold it anymore. Despite making the oath their was a draw back. He couldn't hold all his spells anymore.

However on Siro end she was struggling to keep up. She was trying her hardest just to survive.

And the final problem was… the gate wasn't going to hold. Truso was using all of his energy just to hold the barrier so it came down to what was going to give up.

Durav energy?

Siro speed?

Or truso gate ?

"I can't hold this gate no more it is going to break" said truso.

" I need to relocate it to somewhere remote.

"ARCANE TECHNIQUE. AETHERIC GATE SHIFT"

*in the ocean*

The barrier gave up and they were both hovering over the ocean.

"Your stronger than I thought Siro".

"But you are not beating me".

*durav coughs blood*

"HAHA I KNEW YOU COULD HOLD ON".

"I am going to end you here durav".

"Arcane gate. Universal strength".

"I win".

Because she sustained so much damage,

*gate breaks*

The gate broke

"YOU COULDNT HOLD ON EITHER"

"My little brother is watching, so I need to look good"

He grabbed her face and smashed it all the way to the sea floor. She teleported away from him and used her maximum move called Siro's comet.

He needed to evade the attack so he incased himself in a dark veil.

He then simultaneously used spectral eco to make a clone of himself so she attacked the wrong him.

"Not even dad would survive that if it hit".

"Exactly if it hit" said durav

Siro started to create portals which would teleport her to him, but he would then escape by the shadow she would then end up getting a clean cut on him leaving his arm on the floor. However something odd happened

Something not even hakairo could do at the time

He reversed the arcane energy to heal his arm

He then used his shadow to grab her by the leg and hit her with his nebula blast.

This left Siro in agonising pain.

He was waiting for the right time to use the technique

"How could you heal"?

"I thought that was impossible". Said Siro weakly

She was pushed to the brink of death until she awakened her 3rd tattoo.

This granted her unthinkable strength

[Here are the rankings ]

1 tattoo is way weaker than 2 tattoos which is way weaker than 3 which is way weaker than 4 which is way weaker than 5 tattoos

Her awakening shifted the power balance completely.

So either durav was to adapt to her

Or she was going to win.

His time was running out. His energy was running out.

He only had a couple of seconds before he was to run out.

So she was going to win this fight.

It was obvious to everyone else she was going to win

Besides she was way stronger than durav at this point

He then did the unthinkable. He used his own arcane energy to replenish his burnt out arcane energy. Of course this didn't come without a price but it meant he could cast his arcane gate

"Arcane gate". Nightmare infliction"

This gave Siro her worst fears Imaginable which would constantly be repeated

*in the nightmare*

"Where am I? What is this place?
