DON'T SHOW YOUR BACK TO THE ENEMY

Tatsurou was looking at Maya with narrowed eyes before asking in a cold tone. "Tell me, Dear Sister-in-law, don't you hate the clan. They tried to kill my son, your niece after they learned that he was special and could break free from their control."

"They killed the women I loved because of her status, they forced you and Miya to erase Tatsuya's emotions, they used my daughter as his cage and limiter. My hate is well justified and yours should too. Yet why don't I see that hate inside you? Maybe you didn't really care about my son, maybe you too are just like them, maybe I should end you along with that despicable bunch."

The purple aura surrounding Tatsurou grew darker and darker, it covered his body as the barrier started showing signs of melting. His dark eyes gazing throw the transparent barrier. Maya looked deep inside his eyes, all she could see was hate. Burning hate that burned all the love inside him.

'Brother-in-law has lost himself in rage, I have to put him down. The clan will surely force Tatsuya to kill his father for the sake of the clan, I can't allow that to happen.'

"Sorry brother-in-law, but I can't allow you to continue...."

Maya pointed her C.A.D with burning determination, a deep pink aura burst out of her body. The space bend around her aura, signifying her mastery over her magic. Maya is hailed as the strongest magician not just for the sake of it.

She truly is that strong even when surrounded by multiple 1st rate magicians, she will still be able to emerge victorious. Psion particles gathered at the tip of her gun.

Seeing the huge amount of psion being channeled through her C.A.D, he let out a smile as he whispered.

"So you too wouldn't understand huh...~"

Tatsurou held his [Star breaker] and pointed it at Maya, he eyes void of any emotion, the C.A.D started glowing with a purple glow as if sensing it's master's resolve.

"Well then disappear...~"

"[Ragnarok]...." Using his passive ability ,Instant cast he launched a frequency dispersion spell to break the barrier holding him in.

Waves of overlapping frequency crashed against the barrier as the whole cave shook from the impact. Tatsurou's aura was like an unending ocean, Huge and eternal.

Maya bit her lips after seeing that the barrier wouldn't be able to hold him for any longer. She finished casting her spell and shouted.

"Sleep now brother-in-law.....!!!!"

"[Conscious Overload]....."

Maya decided to use a outer-systematic spell to put Tatsurou's conscious in comatose state. The cave delayed her casting speed yet she was able to finish her spell on time.

Her C.A.D burst forth with a deep pink light as a spell sequence appeared beneath Tatsurou's feet. Tatsurou tried to avoid the spell by exiting its effective zone.

He used his passive ability to slow down the activation time of her spell and jumped back. Suddenly he felt a force surrounding his body, it pulled him inside the activation zone. He recognized what this force was and yelled in anger.

"I should have killed you when I had the chance..."

The elders who he had previously pinned, escaped from their bindings and used [Gravity grasp], a systematic spell used to pull objects with lesser psion concentration than the caster.

Tatsurou tried to rile up his psion concentration but the elders joined forces with restrain him until Maya's spell could activate.

"Maya...!!!!!!!"

He pointed his [Star-breaker] towards Maya and pulled the trigger. [Death by Time] ,a lethal A-rank spell with no straight counters was launched towards Maya.

"Clan-Head dodge.....!!!!!"

Maya tried to move away but he had used his passive ability to slow down time around her. She couldn't use any spell or the spell she was using on him would be terminated. The elders were busy restraining his movements thus couldn't try to save Maya.

Maya gritted her teeth and pressed on, her magic sequence picked up its pace and started sealing Tatsurou.

"NO.....!!!!!!"

The deep pink aura started crystalizing around his body sealing him inside the crystal, finally sending him in comatose state. The sequence below Maya's feet activated.

"CLAN-HEAD.....!!!!"

Before the dark purple aura could kill her ,darkness decended upon her. Her body was covered by dark fog which blocked Tatsurou's spell from reaching Maya.

"Now now....I think we are on time....."

"Aunt..!!!...." Miyuki and Tatsuya rushed over. The dark fog surrounding Maya dissipated and revealed the Yotsuba clan head, no visible injuries could be seen on her body.

"Aunt Maya, are you okay...?" Asked Miyuki with concern all over her face.

Maya gave her a sad smile before pointed towards Tatsurou.

"I am but he isn't...."

Tatsuya looked towards his father, her aunt had sealed him inside a coffin. No emotion could be seen on his ever-stoic face as he averted his eyes from his father and walked over to the clan elders.

He used regrowth to treat their wounds and then waited for them to speak.

"Tatsuya, as the great elders of the Yotsuba clan. We have sentenced Tatsurou Yotsuba to death, Kill him.....!!!!"

Maya immediately shouted,

"No you can't kill him...."

"Sorry Clan-head but he tried to kill you and the other elders, even the ones inside the compound are dead. We have suffered heavy losses and he must pay for his doings." The cold tone of the elders made it clear that they have decided to kill Tatsurou no matter what.

"Hehehe..."

Ichizu snickered after hearing the elders words, they turned towards him in anger and said while gritting their teeth.

"May I ask what is so funny....?"

"What makes you think you can kill him...?"

"Is the Ruujiki clan going to interfere in Yotsuba clan's matters." Asked the elder in a dark-tone.

Tatsuya and others focused on Ichizu's response.

Those red eyes struck fear in their hearts, floral pattern inside his eyes was the proof of his existence.

"Of-course not....But what about him..." Said Ichizu with a smile ,his finger pointing at the crystalized Tatsurou.

"What do you mean―...."

The elder who started speak suddenly stopped and looked at his palm. His once healthy palm was thining at a visible pace. Wrinkles appeared on it while his hand turned skinny.

"What―...."

"Never point your back at a person as strong as Tatsurou-san.....Hehehe he..."
