#Back to the Present
All this while, after Kaelus pierced the Takeda he’d chosen as the “real one” and watched it dissolve into nothing but a clone, he’d been sinking into frustration, convinced that he was about to lose to Aeron and watch the spotlight shift away from him.
But what stood in front of him now... wasn’t anything close to the scenarios he’d played out in his head.
“Ti to take you on,” the bulkier Takeda said, as he lifted the greatsword from his shoulder and hurled it towards him, that was how the blade spun through the air toward Kaelus like a helicopter rotor.
“Why won’t you just die?” Kaelus snapped—tired, furious, and already halfway into despair, as he dashed forward again, arms flung behind him.
Qi surged out of him and poured into his Aether Blade, the mont the spinning greatsword reached him, he stomped into the ground and swung upward, trying to deflect it away.
Clang!
A brutal jolt ran through the clash and blasted into his arm, sending numbness up to his shoulder, but Kaelus gritted his teeth and pushed through anyway, forcing the greatsword off line after a grinding struggle.
But while he was locked in that strength contest—The katana-wielding Takeda calmly slid his blade into its scabbard, as the bulkier one stepped before him, as the wind Takeda hands began moving through a quick series of signs.
He then shifted into a stance and thrust both palms out together, with the right hand on top, and left hand angled downward, imdiately the air shuddered.
As wind particles converged at the point his hands t, before surging forward like an invisible shove that launched the other Takeda ahead.
Mid-flight, that Takeda raised his hands and chunks of rock snapped into place around his forearms, piling up until they ford a gauntlet.
