Chapter 36: Retaliation part 1
[Newcastle upon Tyne]
11:30 A.M.
Aggregor narration: "The Deprimestate... many have made their own techniques from it, but what truly makes them unique is the awakening they unlock. Gabriel had long awoken his, He called the Total hypnosis, its a control over the five senses of anything... including you demon... It can be long lasting... or not and I made it long lasting for you, how I achieved my own awakening despite being in a body that already has a deprimestat awakening is a mystery... a mystery I couldn't care less about."
The entire city is in ruins in different areas there are lifeless bodies with missing body parts and crushed by the rubble of fallen buildings, back at the now destroyed castle Aggregor is seen standing amongst its destructions.
Aggregor: I am close... My goal... i can feel it. (Aggregor picks up a shard of the nexus that was held in hand by severed hand belonging to Seku before walking forth and stands over the corpse of Zack Riley who is missing a left burnt arm, has a hole in his chest and a cut open gut section with the intestines poking out and all burnt to a crisp, Zack's eyes are open lifelessly aswell as his mouth. Aggregor has dried blood down his left eye and his shirt and red jacket torn up with a few burnt marks.) You did well Zack... better than most you put up a good and lasting fight. Tch... (Aggregor looks down to see blood on his stomach which hasn't healed up yet.) Hmmm this damn human body... (he grunts furiously at the pain of his injured stomach before he senses two individuals) hm. How interesting... (He puts the shard in left side of his pants pocket) I possess the body of a man that wiped out 60% of a country's population while injured in one fully day. I've SLAUGHTERED all of your friends and more, I killed the Red-Death. I have conquered and watched worlds far bigger than this one get eradicated by their own kinds and believes. I know the secrets of life that will make your minds break down into madness. I am the Celestial of Light, the only TRUE warrior. Fighting me is futile to you all... so why? Tell me, human. WHY do you continue to resist the inevitable?! (Aggregor asks as he turns around with irritation in his tone as he watches a building falling to the left and a individual in the clouded smoke walking up to him.)
The smoke clears and from the distance of 20 meters, Ethan seewn dashing at high speeds, he reaches Aggregor and throws a right jab thats immediately grabbed by Aggregor's palm as he smirks uses his free hand to grab the back of Ethan's head and slams his head into the ground.
Aggregor: Really? Is that all you could do? Pathetic.
Aggregor grabs Ethan by the neck once more and slams him into the ground twice cracking up the surface more then.
Aggregor: Your father must be sooo ashamed of having you as his biggest failure. (Steps on top of Ethan's chest and slowly applies pressure down.) So weak. The only thing that makes you special is that you are were conceived and share the same blood as the ancestors of the Spirit world.
Ethan: Tch... (He attempts to get Aggregor's foot off his chest with his hands and fails.)
*ZAP*
Aggregor: !!
An electric surge of negative energy had struck through Aggregor's chest.
Ethan: (He watches Aggregor lose balance as he stumbles getting his foot off his chest.) Tch... Nows my chance. (He attempts to get up but gets kicked in the stomach by Aggregor, sending him rolling away on the ground.)
Aggregor: What a sneaky shot... (He praises his attacker before staring directly at them to see it is Kyle located in an abandoned building.)
Kyle: Shit... (cracks neck) Come on body... (he starts to slowly walk before running towards a broken window as he stores bio energy abspeved into his body from the air.) Don't let me down! (He leaps off the building towards Aggregor with a smile on his face as the bio energy stored in his body triggers the state he calls 'The Glitch' that converts his body into a living biomass body that still takes his appearance as he shapeshifts his left arm into a large serrated blade that has an appearance of a blood-like form in stark contrast of a more godlike substances that manifested like a rapidly growing tumor that warped his arm from inside out as opposed to a fluid emerging and wrapping itself around the rest of the arm.)
Kyle pulls his blade shaped arm back extendinh it long and wide enough for him to swing down ontop of Aggregor to crush him down but is quickly avoided with one side leap. Aggregor smirks in excitement before making the hand sign of the deprimestate with his left hand.
Kyle: !?
Aggregor: Deprimestate; Elemental control; Eternal Blaze.
Aggregor summons down the pillar of fiery light to engulf Kyle but Kyle quickly leaps to the side dodging the pillar. But this was intended to happen for Aggregor as he dashes forth to deliver a straight punch to Kyle's chest causing the latter to crash 15 meters into the ground.
"DEPRIMESTATE: ELEMENTAL CONTROL; ETERNAL INFERNO..."
Kyle pants as he gets up from the ground surprised that he has managed to tank a punch from Aggregor himself. Before he could proceed to do anything else the flames of hell quickly appear after Aggregor's chant, engulfing Kyle's entire body on the spot.
Kyle: Hnngh!?!
Kyle falls to one knee as his clothes and flesh burn from the extreme flames and at a fast pace, he clenches his teeth un agony before screaming outwards.
Aggregor: Oh? How very interesting. (He places a palm over his strained and blood filled left eye as he discovers something interesting.)
@Side effect of the eternal inferno.
Kyle's body continues to burn away but his flesh heals while engulfed by the flame. This leaves Aggregor both intrigued and disappointed as he watches Kyle scream in agony.
Aggregor thoughts: "His body fighting against the flame with its healing property... its getting more and more faster as he burns..." (he smirks)
Aggregor: Any last words before I put you out of your misery?
In an instant a pillar of fiery white energy is summoned engulfing Aggregor's body into the ground. The flames of hell vanish from Kyle's body leaving him completely naked to heal his body fully. In a perfectly circled crater Aggregor still stands panting with smoke radiating from his body. He grunts before levitating out the small crater.
Aggregor (thoughts): A-A deprime user?! Here? No... the beam should have completely burn this body... Tsk!! (Aggregor clenches his teeth before turning around to see Ethan 15 meters standing and also looking back at Aggregor, he has his left palm extended.)
Aggregor: YOU... did that...?
Ethan: ...
Ethan doesn't answer Aggregor's and instead teleports behind Aggregor and delivers a right jab to his back causing little to no damage to Aggregor as he smirks before turning around swinging a left back hand that Ethan just barely manages to block with his entire left forearm covering the side of his face.
Ethan: (he conjures a black rod from his right hand that he swings towards the shoulder blade.)
Aggregor: (With utter quickness Aggregor moves to stand behind Ethan with his back facing the latter's back while having a shocked facial expression.)
Ethan: Tch?!
Aggregor: Oo... You could have had me there if you weren't so slow. (Chuckles before speaking in thought to himself) "The brat's control over his cursed power is completely different and weaker than Satoshi and Raziel's powers. It's just a complete mess, that's what gives him an advantage."
As Aggregor is thinking, Ethan leaps forward twice to stand 15m away before turning around to see that Aggregor hasn't moved which confuses him.
Ethan thoughts: He's not attacking. Is he... Lost in thought?
Aggregor thoughts: His power's high but the output of his powered attacks are slowly weakening after each use. A strange case this one is, compared to the rest. And if I were to guess... (Aggregor smiles as he looks at Ethan.) He's a defect with a freeformed power to replicate any curse ability.
Aggregor: I gotta say, Satoshi... Your family has and always will be a pain in my ass.
Ethan: tch?!
"GATES.... OPEN.... SECRET TREASURES; RED DAWN, SPEAR OF WAR."
Aggregor summons his spear once more that he wields with his right arm outstretched to the side.
Ethan: Tch? "Odiz never mentioned Gabriel ever having this... this gate technique. Judging from when he first used it its one of the awakenings of the deprime. But... Gabriel's awakening is hypnosis and he's a Celestial of Light... So where did it come from?" (He questions himself in thought before he conjures two sharp ended rods from his hands that he wields and dashes forth to attack.)
Narration: With a cursed power that does not comply with the rules of using cursed energy, Ethan's chances of turning the tides of battle are eminent.
