In Your Name

[Dark Magic: Death Thrust]

[Breath of the Kitsune: Soul Burning Slash]

Racing towards Lucifero, the two split apart and hit him from the left and right.

-Warp!

Bending space and avoiding the attacks, the battle ground trembled.

-Warp!

Appearing in front of Grim with a raised arm, the wound that had been inflicted upon his face throbbed.

'This boy, HE MUST DIE!'

*SWOOSH!!*

Boosting his speed and impact damage with [Gravity Magic] he struck down.

"DIEEEEEE!!"

*SWOOSH!!*

Swinging down, he aimed at the boy's head.

'TURN TO DUUST!!'

*Grins!!*

Faced with a head pulverizing attack, a crazed smile hung from Grim's lips.

-BAANG!!

Activating [Breath of the Kitsune: 2nd Tail - Burning Sakura] and [Breath of the Kitsune: 3rd Tail - Fox Trot] at the last minute, he teleported away and avoided the attack.

'I missed?! No. He vanished!'

"UP HERE RETARD!!"

"Huh?"

Distracted by Grim's provocation, while he was looking up, Yami who was focused on building up his magic power had his eyes snap open.

[Death Thrust]

Drawing back and condensing his spell to its utmost limit, he thrust his sword forward and fired off an extremely compressed blast of dark magic.

-BAANG!!

Feeling a heavy impact from the back of his left shoulder, Lucifero stumbled forward.

"Dammit." Yami cursed with a smile.

'I couldn't even break his skin.'

"YOU DARE TO ATTACK ME!-

[Breath of the Kitsune: 9th Tail - 9 Flames Annihilation]

Amused by his rage, Grim's grimoire shone brightly as Lucifero now had to deal with the concentrated beam of destruction about to rain down on him.

"DAMMIT!!"

Sensing something weird about this spell, he did the smart thing and teleported out of there.

*BOOOOM!!*

Striking the ground with a tremendous amount of force, the beam tunneled deep into earth and left a huge gapping hole behind.

Appearing in the distance, Lucifero's brows furrowed together when he saw the huge hole.

'That spell... Could it have damaged me?'

Landing next to Yami, Grim couldn't help but admit that this jumping thing was quite fun.

Seeing Yami's sword coated in Dark Magic, he was inspired to try something out.

Concentrating on his own sword, he cast [9 Flames Annihilation] again but this time he focused the energy around his sword.

"Eh?" Yami saw what he was doing.

"Heh, copycat."

"Fuck off." Grim grinned back and got into a battle stance.

"So, what do you think?" He asked.

"About?"

"Lucifero."

"He's a monster." Was the only answer Yami could give.

"Yeah! Great isn't it!"

"Ha, you little psycho." Also getting into a battle stance, Yami's attention was fully focused on the so called King of Devils.

"ENOUGH!!"

-RUUMBLE!

Raising both of his hands to the side, the earth began to shake and break apart as he slowly rose into the air.

"YOU'RE NOTHING! INSIGNIFICANT BUGS WHO SHOULD BE HONOURED TO DIE BY MY HANDS!"

"Pfft." Grim laughed. "Check this guy out, he thinks he's the honoured one."

"More like the angry one."

"The wrinkled one."

"The dumb one."

"The ugly one."

"SHUT UP!!" He screeched flinging broken pieces of earth forward.

[Annihilation Dome]

With Yami and himself protected from the inside, a dome of pure destruction spread out erasing any pieces of earth that touched it.

"Ooo. Better luck next time."

"AARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Screaming at the top of his lungs, rage overcame him as he grabbed handfuls of his own hair.

"Grim... I think you made him mad."

"Lets see if we can make him cry next."

-WARP!!

Warping inside the dome, the veins in his eyes threatened to burst.

"JUST DIE ALREADY!!"

*BOOOOM!!*

"ARGHH!!"

"Wahahahahahahahahaha!!"

Unleashing far more magic than before, he pushed the two back and aggressively chased after Grim.

"I'LL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF!!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"

"TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!"

Using [Fox Trot] to teleport out of there, Lucifero warped after him like a rabid bloodhound.

*FWOOSH!!*

Thrusting his hand out, he wanted to grab hold of Grim's neck and strangle him to death.

-Grins

"And this is why I called you a dumbass."

Seeing Grim's grinning face, he suddenly felt like he had done something wrong.

Up in the air and surrounded by a cascade of falling sakura petals, Lucifero's eyes suddenly went wide as Grim revealed a cruel smile and raised his arm up.

"Choke on this you pasty fuck."

-Snap

Caught off guard, the detonation of the petals was unlike anything he had ever experienced before. Flames that didn't only burn his body, but his soul too. Such a pain, it was indescribable.

"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

Releasing a scream filled with pain and resentment, his cries echoed throughout the entire battlefield.

Even using his ability to manipulate gravity and partially bend the explosion around him. He was only able to mitigate some of the damage.

***

-Adramelech's POV-

"Lucifero... You could cry like that...?"

Having only ever viewed the almight king of devils as the top dog, it was inconceivable to think that such a pathetic sounding whimper was coming out of his mouth.

With the explosion being as bright as it was, even he, a devil of the supreme rank had to avert his eyes.

To think there was more than one extraordinary human up here...

***

With the explosion dying down, Grim moved back down next to Yami.

"Think thats enough to do him in?"

"Nope."

*FWOOSH!!*

Removing the rest of the explosion with gravity, a heavy breathing Lucifero stood in the air with black smoke wafting off of his body.

Compared to how he was before, the damage this time was evident. With a broken horn and several burns, this was the most damage he had ever taken.

While not as bad as it could have been, to Lucifero who viewed his body as a treasure, this was the biggest insult someone could give him.

'This boy... He has the power to kill me!

Clenching fists tightly, the air around him suddenly calmed.

"Grim." He called out to the surprise of everyone.

"Your power." He spoke through grit teeth. "I acknowledge it."

Floating down from the sky and speaking with sincerity, he gently landed on the ground and stared ahead of himself.

"To push me this far... How ridiculous." He chuckled darkly staring Grim down.

"You can stand proud boy. Because from this moment forth, I will use all the power this body possesses to deliver to you, the most painful death an existence like you can experience. And I won't stop there. For this world that you're trying so hard to protect, I will make it my mission to utterly ravish it. Humans, elves and anything else out there, I will destroy it all. And as I do so, I will speak your name. For you are the cause of this."

With every word he spoke, the aura around him began to slowly change. With him now willing to use the full power of his half manifested form, his appearance took on a combat fitting form.

"I will end everything in the name of Grim."

"In my name?" Grim laughed. "Get off my dick would ya. That shit gay as fuck."

"Grim." Yami called out understanding that now was not the time for jokes. "I'm gonna be totally honest with you, my magic can barely even scratch this guy and I don't think he's gonna fall for another surprise attack."

"Yep." Grim agreed holding back the urge to attack Lucifero right now.

"Still think you can take him?"

"Anyday."

'Seriously? Where is this guy getting his confidence from?'

"Uh huh." Yami nodded keeping his inner thoughts to himself.

"Mind if we try one more thing before I tap out?"

"One more thing?"

Recognizing his train of thought, Grim suddenly stared at him for a moment.

-Grins

"Fuck it."

Pouring magic into their grimoires, they both simultaneously said-

[Black Moon x Red Sun]

[Union Magic: Blades Of The Eclipse - Twin Swords]
