Arc - Rise of the Dawn Arc
Chapter - Deadly Battle of the Dragons
"Valour! You have gone too far!"
Greyson thought internally, 'A [Second Stage Arringun] of two tomoes ... how can this be. The only person who was able to achieve this was the second chief of the Azure Village.'
Valour or the 'Dark Lord' put his right hand on his face and looked at Greyson from the gap.
"I said you that I respected you greatly some time ago. Do you know the reason ... Twenty years ago, the great war of Valesthia ... You alone killed the thousand of soul masters wearing high and advanced battle armour and mechas. You killed them in order to stop their advancement towards the south. What's more, no one was able to deliver a scratch on you. You are a worthy opponent for me. I also hate you because my sister chose you over me. If it's not for you. She would be alive right now ... "
Greyson interrupted him, " ... as a demon. You turned into a demon for power. When this isn't enough for you. You started to burn the world ... I didn't want to kill all those people in the first place. If I allowed them to pass through my village towards the Dark Continent. Then, it will create an endless cycle of war and hatred between the Continents ... I tried everything for Claire, but such a death was her choice, and I just respected her wishes."
Valour became angry and said in a loud and harsh tone, "ENOUGH!! NOW DIE!!!"
The two tomoes on his left eye started to spin with incredible speed. The white light on the kunies of Greyson disappeared after that. At the same time, many black mould tentacles moved at Greyson with great speed. These tentacles were different from that of Vincent's. They are thick and tough, like the branch of the tree. Moreover, there are black spikes and adhesive scales. Thus, making them more dangerous than before. Greyson understood that there was no room for talk anymore. Just as the spikes were about to hit him. He disappeared from his position and appeared above Valour. Valour was dumbfounded at this development. This isn't the [Shadow Flicker Technique] nor it was his martial soul as Valour has disabled it through the ability of his left eye. The kuni of Greyson weren't normal kuni. Even if he is not able to enhance it, these kuni are still deadly. Greyson wanted to split the head of Valour in one shot. Valour was also a skilled shinobi. He bends his body and head, but still half of his neck is burst by the kuni. Greyson disappeared and appeared away from him. He didn't know what kind of tricks were present under his opponent sleeves. The 'Dark Lord' can not be killed that easily. Just as he thought, the tomoes on his right eye started to spin. The wound on his neck healed with a startling speed. The fight is going to be tough and deadly. A silver sword appeared in Greyson hand with a flash of cold light, and he held the handle sword using his teeth.
The 'Dark Lord' was angry. He couldn't able to give a scratch to his opponent. He is too fast and clever. Although the whole village looked destroyed, he doubted that he was able to deliver any major damage to the people of Azure Village. But his necromancer army had greatly suffered the damage. His main army was still stuck in the Azure Mist Forest, and there is still time for their arrival. What's worst, he was stuck with Greyson in the [Second Formation Wall]. A light yellow dome shaped barrier was covering the whole inner area of the village. Valour now noticed a black mark on the ground just beside Greyson. He gritted his teeth in annoyance. He is becoming uncontrollable and angry. Greyson had to one shot his opponent, and there was no room for a mistake.
Both of them again disappeared from their position, and a clash of combat begin between them. The houses of the Azure Village were made up of wood and stone. They are first completely turned into ruins and now into dust. Each strike of these two was creating an unimaginable burden on the surroundings and the barrier. Greyson was able to deliver many strikes while escaping from the deadly claws, but he was getting healed every time. The battle was at a stalemate for now.
Greyson first appeared near him and then above in an instant in order to fool him. Just as the fight was prolonged, Valour was able to learn the attack and defence pattern of Greyson. He was looking for this opportunity. If it isn't because of his [Second Stage Arringun] abilities. He would most certainly be dead right now. The martial soul of Greyson is known as [Perplexing Blue Ghost] martial soul. He was able to turn into Blue Mist, which made him intangible. In the form of Blue Mist, he was able to strike the soul of the enemy. Thus, killing the enemy without any cut on his body. An enemy who is intangible for you and can kill you as soon as he touches you is truly fearsome. Any kind of defence is a waste against him. Valour step aside at the right moment, and his left hand started to glow with red light. Greyson was pulled towards the ground with a great force, and black spikes rose from the ground in order to end his life. He teleported to one of his marks away from Valour. But the spikes give him many scratches and damage. His reflexes were fast, or else it was the end of his life. He looked at Valour with shock, which was evident on Greyson's face. Valour not only had [Shadow Mould Physique] but also the [Red Shinra] martial soul. His martial soul is related to gravity, and it gives very troublesome abilities to the user. If that wasn't enough, Greyson saw that seven shadows rose up from Valour and started hovering around him. There were nine shadow rings that appeared under his feat.
"You still think that you can defeat me."
Meanwhile, Vincent ran towards the inner area while creating a path among a small horde of skeletons. He was only using his sword skills and preserving his soul power.
