Cloud frowned when he saw how the black-haired boy stood still, though his expression changed when he saw how the dark aura surrounding his body was starting to beco increasingly erratic.
[It feels like seeing being able to feel the air against my skin again] - said Kouki with a distorted voice - [Thank you very much for fulfilling my wish, irregular].
"I guess you're Umbra" - said Cloud with a frown as he rattled his neck - "This is perfect, I got both for the price of one, I guess by taking possession of Amanogawa's body, it ans you're now trapped in it? Right?"
[That's one way of looking at it] - Umbra replied in her typical distorted voice.
Cloud didn't say anything else, he simply ran against the possessed hero, only to back away when he felt a change on the ground, so bones had co out of the place where he was before, a similar situation to what had happened during his first encounter with Eri Nakamura - "You can steal the powers of your victims."
[The power is concentrated in the soul] - Umbra replied as she waved her hands and summoned a group of zombies from the ground - [I keep a fragnt of their souls and use them as seeds inside so that their abilities can germinate naturally].
Cloud was silent as he watched the black-haired boy begin to laugh madly as he was surrounded by different elents.
[It's my turn to return your words, I hope that's not all you can do, irregular, because if it is, I'll be very disappointed..." - Umbra said as she began to launch all the elental attacks she knew.
Yue prepared to intervene, when she saw Cloud give her a glare - "I understand..."
[Aren't you going to make them help you? I see your pride is greater than I thought, though this is good for ] - Umbra said with disdain, though her expression changed when she saw her attack being absorbed by the irregular - [Impossible] - [Impossible].
Cloud didn't respond, he simply started walking in the direction of the possessed hero. His weapons had returned to his inventory because he had decided to do things differently, seeing that the greatest danger coming from this enemy was elental attacks, and that he could counter them with the greatest of ease, Cloud decided that he would use his own hands to enjoy the next few minutes of torture.
Umbra felt a shiver run down his spine as he continued to launch magical attacks, which were devoured one after another. For the first ti, he felt he was facing a superior creature, a relentless predator that had him in its sights.
Unconsciously, the possessed hero began to retreat as the blond's steps beca faster and faster. No matter how far he retreated, the distance was getting smaller and smaller.
Slowly, black scales began to erge on Cloud's arms as his face darkened. Yes, he couldn't use his full transformation, but entering [Dragon Force] was extrely easy.
Umbra continued to retreat while attacking to make as much ti as possible to plan a way to escape. It was obvious that his attacks were useless, that's why he needed to continue to grow so he could take revenge.
"Oh, don't even think about it" - Cloud said as he delivered a firm blow that ended up sending his opponent flying.
"Ack!" - Umbra let out a groan of pain as he embedded himself in a wall - [Ugh...].
Cloud again appeared in front of the corrupted hero and grabbed him by the head before whipping him to the ground.
Unable to do anything about it, Umbra felt his body seem to be constantly exploding from the blows he was taking.
Arms, legs, his chest, every single part of his body hurt like hell and was bleeding, and what was worse, this was not hindering his movent. It was as if his enemy wished to continue humiliating him, which he could use as a good opportunity to change the pace of the battle.
Umbra struggled to her feet before stretching out her blood-covered arms - [You're going to pay for this...].
Cloud said nothing in response, he again walked against the possessed hero, only to frown when he felt sothing liquid on his feet. Slowly, he looked down and noticed a small puddle of black water - "What is this?
It was Umbra's turn not to answer, the body slowly began to turn liquid as the sound of sothing breaking could be heard.
Cloud frowned as he saw this before preparing to walk back to where his opponent was, only to notice how his legs were trapped - ". . ."
[I promise I'll get revenge, irregular...] - Umbra said as the sound of sothing breaking steadily continued to be heard.
Cloud was silent as he watched the dark mass seem to have gone still, at which point he felt his mobility return.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual about his body, Cloud walked over to where the dark mass was, which slowly disappeared, revealing the body of Kouki Amanogawa, which seed to be twisted at angles that shouldn't be possible, and what was more frightening, the boy seed to be fully conscious by the multiple grimaces of pain he was showing.
Cloud stared at him silently as he listened to him ask for help - "Why should I?"
"W-We're... colleagues..." - Kouki replied while vomiting blood - "I did... what I did... because I was being influenced by Umbra..."
Cloud fell silent before letting out a laugh - "I see, makes sense."
Kouki smiled slightly as he saw that he had managed to convince the blond, though his expression changed when he felt sothing piercing his chest - "Why..."
"That doesn't change anything" - Cloud replied as he used the dark sword to pierce through his heart, though when he did so he noticed how the presence of the sharp weapon had disappeared, turning this weapon into nothing more than an ordinary sword - "At least now you can rest"
Kouki vomited blood before slowly closing his eyes, he never thought he would die so soon.
Cloud was silent as he began to sniff the place, or rather the sword, he wanted to find the trail Umbra might have left behind.
"You killed him so quickly?" - Yue asked as she walked over to Cloud and looked at Kouki's body, only to frown - "No, he's still alive, in fact, he looks like he's suffering from the exsanguination."
"I don't care, I have more important things to do now" - Cloud replied as he sniffed again, only to smile slightly and run in the direction of the north, though not before asking the girls to get everything ready for the last battle.
The girls looked at each other before looking at Kouki, who was writhing on the ground.
"I think we'd better finish him off," said Shea with a frown, "I know he deserves it, but I think we should be better than him."
Tio thought silently before nodding - "Ok, let's do it.... Do you agree, Yue-san?"
"Yeah, I don't want to risk him surviving if we leave him alone" - Yue replied as he made a hand motion and created a blood stake that pierced the boy's head, only to frown when he noticed that there wasn't too much blood left inside, he could even feel the absence of mana - "Umbra escaped with everything he could, though leaving his physical form behind will make him much weaker than being inside this human's body."
Tio looked at Kouki Amanogawa as she shook her head - "Let's keep his body in the inventory to prevent problems."
"Sounds like a plan" - nodded Yue as she made Kouki's body disappear, only to start thinking about what was to co now that they had eliminated all the problems before they could start the last battle - "Co on, we have to go back to [Orcus]"
"Ok" - nodded the girls as they walked towards the entrance of the labyrinth.
* * * * *
[Shit, I didn't think I had to use my last ability...] - muttered Umbra, who was using the form of a snake in order to escape from the blonde boy - [I got overconfident, I thought Kouki Amanogawa's talent was only a little behind the blonde's, but I guess the irregular title should have given a hint...]]
Umbra continued muttering, when she felt a familiar presence running in her direction, which made her body freeze.
[Impossible, my presence should be undetectable!]" exclaid Umbra in terror, though her face changed again as she felt her body being sucked into sothing.
When Cloud reached his destination, he saw how Umbra's scent and aura had disappeared in this place, but he didn't seem to be anywhere to be found. Still, he decided to use his earth magic in order to move the ground and make sure his prey wasn't hiding there, ending up with the sa result - "Did he create a false trail?"
