Vol 3 Chapter 27: Gap
Y/n: "Belial!!!"
Diehauser: "Gilgamesh L/n"
I open my gates and notice a smirk on his face.
Diehauser: "You think I don't know how that works?"
My gates are suddenly forced shut as I sigh loudly.
Y/n: "How the hell is that the second time this has happened?"
I'm suddenly caught by a punch to the jaw. I'm flung back a few as that woke me up a bit. I see him throw another punch as I evade it before countering with one of my own.
Diehauser: "I can read you like a book"
Before I'm able to connect, I felt a massive amount of force hit me in the stomach. Diehauser had landed a second shot and dawn near left me breathless. Noticing on time another fist flying in my direction, I dodge once more but catch a graze near my cheek.
Diehauser: "I never imagined you as the one to be on the defensive this much? Not much of a skilled fighter like your father I see.."
I stop for a minute as Diehauser connects another blow to my face. I fall backwards as I find myself on the ground. I spit some blood on the ground while looking at the dirt underneath me.
Y/n: "When did I become such a wimp where I would allow a bastard like you to throw dirt in my father's name?"
I rise up as my mother's eye began to glow.
??: "Ah, ah, ah~ Can't have you doing that~"
I suddenly felt something odd drop around me as I find myself in a strange and dark forest. I kneeled down as I felt the gazes of many evil beings on me. I silently kneeled as I waited for my Clairvoyance to "reach" the point I wanted. The many terrifying eyes circled around me but I paid them no attention.
~~~~~
Yukari: "And just like that, WE WIN~!!"
She jumped into Diehauser's arms who seemed bothered by her actions.
Yukari: "What? You wanted to beat him, right?"
Diehauser: "Was it really that easy?"
Yukari released him and pouted while crossing her arms.
Yukari: "Of course it was. I manipulated the boundary between the battlefield and the yokai world to send him there. Once he's "killed", he'll just reappear back at the losers camp.. maybe slightly traumatized, but I still see this as a win"
Diehauser looked behind her to see the competition completely overpowered.
Diehauser: "You're playing with your food again.."
Yukari: "Relax my darling. I have everything completely under my control. I'll make sure to hand you this win no matter what-"
"I see you.."
She paused her words and immediately looked backwards. She had a frightened expression on her face as Diehauser sighed while facepalming.
Diehauser: "I told you many times now. Stop playing with your enemies and finish them quickly"
A thin slash appeared in the air as Yukari looked at it while sweating profusely from nervousness.
Yukari: "Y-You got to be kidding me, right? He's in a different plane of reality right now, HOW IS HE-?!"
Before she could finish, a massive hole had been blown into her stomach as reality shatters. A hole was now visible in mid air while Y/n walked out from the other side while holding a demonic 6 tailed beast's head in one hand.
Y/n: "If you were going to beat me, make sure my Musashi or Ea isn't in my hands"
Covered in blood, the Prince of Heroes walked out of the other boundary before slashing it to close it. He dropped the beast's head on the ground before crushing it with a powerful stomp.
Diehauser: "That eye is pretty impressive"
The eye of my mother was resonating intensely while I held Musashi over my shoulder.
Y/n: "You mentioned my father's name before me and not in good faith. That's a highly punishable offence. Come get your ass whopped, boy"
Diehauser: "*chuckles* Will I now?"
He walked over to me as Yukari slowly fixed her stomach.
Yukari: "H-Hey, I'm pretty exhausted here. Least you can do as a gentleman-"
A handkerchief landed on her lap as she picked it up and looked over to her king with a confused stare.
Diehauser: "You can clean the blood out of your dress with that. You're welcome"
Yukari: "THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!!!"
Diehauser walked up in front of me as we stared at one another.
Diehauser: "Well, I'm here Prince of Heroes. You have the King of the Belial Clan standing before you"
Y/n: "Good. Made it easier than going to chase you instead"
We both threw a punch at the same time and connected without even bothering to block or dodge.
Diehauser: "So this is the strength of a God King?"
Y/n: "Relax, you aren't even getting a fingernail worth of power out of me just yet"
Diehauser: "I can say the same thing~"
We both channel our inner strength and start going blow for blow. The battle was a thrill to be involved in for the two of us.
Yukari: "Are you two smiling?!"
??: "Who said you could have all the fun?!.."
We were interrupted by Kartikeya who came down with his blade drawn out, nearly taking out our hands.
Y/n: "I was just about to bring you to the party"
Diehauser: "Shiva's kid. *sighs* Always a nuisance whenever it comes to another person's business. Can you leave? We are in the middle of something"
Kartikeya: "Can it Fallen Clan head, I'm here to win and the two of you are the strongest in the competition"
Y/n: "Works for me"
Diehauser: ".. Whatever"
Unknown to the 3 competitors, the Gods, Angels, Devils, and Yokai had all risen from their seats. Before them, the 3 strongest warriors now stood proudly in battle. Kartikeya, a God of War and the proud son of Shiva. Y/n, King of Kuoh and son of King Gilgamesh and Tiamat. Diehauser, King of the Rating Games and heir of the Belial Clan. The Child of Genesis V The Rival to the 3 Great Satans V The God of War.
Serafall: "I'm actually getting goosebumps, you know?"
Sirzechs: "This is going to be fun"
Zeus: "I wonder which of the 3 takes the crown?"
Azazel: "Shall we take bets?"
Shiva: "GO KARTIKEYA!!"
We stood in place while looking at one another.
Y/n: "How about we put on a good show?"
Kartikeya: "You read my mind"
Diehauser: "Less words, more fighting"
Y/n & Kartikeya: "Way ahead of ya!!"
We sprint forward as I draw Musashi out and clash with Kartikeya while dodging a fist full of power from Diehauser. We'd throw several slashes, blows, parried many attacks and shattered reality quite a few too many times. Despite the damn near battle to the death like spar, we each grew to enjoy it with large smiles on our faces that nearly made us look psychotic.
Yukari: "Men.."
Eu: "Men"
Yukari looked over her shoulder to see Eucliwood holding her scythe to the fox eared woman's neck.
Yukari: "You can talk now?"
She noticed a strange magic circle on her neck.
Eucliwood: "I'll only be temporary"
Yukari: "Ignoring the fact that there are still many left to fight, should we all just agree that the winner of those idiots is the true winner? I don't really feel the need to fight anymore"
Eucliwood: "And why is that?"
Yukari: "Your boyfriend LITERALLY BLEW A HOLE IN ME!!!.. FROM ANOTHER PLANE OF REALITY!!!"
Issei: "Built different"
Yukari looked over to see the group where all beat up with Yorihime sheathing her blade.
Yorihime: "I wanna fight him too"
Yukari: "So I take it that we all agree then?"
Kagekiyo: "Well, I liked the spar"
Eucliwood: "We weren't gonna get anywhere with these guys constantly getting in the way. So, maybe just let them settle it themselves"
Eucliwood took out the key and unlocked the gate to Babylon as she reached inside.
Yukari: "We were all just getting serious.."
Kagekiyo: "Well, it's hard to battle, WHEN 3 PSYCHOS ARE CONSTANTLY GETTING IN THE WAY!!"
Vali: "I was trying to strike Yorihime from behind, was stopped by a stray slash from Y/n's nearly taking me out"
Issei: "I tried to fire a Dragon shot, got stolen and redirected as a bomb towards Y/n and Kartikeya by Diehauser"
Yorihime: "I was constantly dodging not just you alls attacks, but also my own King and his opponents.."
Kagekiyo: "Might as well let them resolve it themselves"
The 3 of us are sent back as goosebumps raise the hairs on my arms. This.. battle was making my heart race.. I'm enjoying this right now.
Diehauser: "I have something specifically for the 2 of you. A gift given to me by someone who knows you well Prince of Heroes"
"Someone who knows me?"
The sleeve on his right arm was torn as something resembling command spells appeared all over it. Clinching his fist, a massive influx of power was generating with strong winds. Over his chest, the King Piece revealed itself and entered his chest before creating a gauntlet around his arm. From thin air, an odd looking sword drenched in darkness swallowed the light around it.
Kartikeya: "Guess we going all out in this one"
Kartikeya suddenly went in a state of complete focus. He positioned himself with a hand on the handle of his sword while taking a single breath. A projected aura released from inside him and captured every inch between us.
Y/n: "*chuckles* Fascinating. I'll honor you both the privilege of a life time then!"
I cut a rip in space and reach into it as I, admittedly, got way too into the Azazel Cup now.
Y/n: "EA!! Your master calls for you!"
Knowing nobody would die regardless of what happens, I may have gone overboard in the moment. The powerful winds of the Great sword began to violently shake the arena as spectators in the match held onto anything to kept them grounded.
Kagekiyo: "They really are going all out then huh?"
Yoshitsune was holding on by thrusting her swords into the ground. Eucliwood meanwhile, was holding onto Yoshitsune's waist.
Kagekiyo: "Can't you tell them to chill?!"
Eucliwood: "But, he's having fun for once"
Yoshitsune's eye twitched while looking back at the Queen of Kuoh, dumbfounded by her response.
Kagekiyo: "Am I really gonna be serving these guys from now on?.."
Eucliwood: "Welcome to the family"
As we prepared for what's to come, everyone on the outside was in a panic.
Azazel: "WAIT! WAIT! I KNOW WE SAID YOU WOULDN'T DIE IN THERE, BUT DON'T DESTROY EVERYTHING EITHER!!"
Sirzechs: "*sighs* I suppose we should of expected this?"
Shiva: "What do we do?!"
Zeus: "Eh, just let it happen"
Michael: "I pray they all end up well"
Serafall: "I'm just gooonna.. step outside for a bit.. incase things just fly everywhere"
Admittedly, I did have to hold back some of Ea's power as I was still well aware of what would happen to the outside area of the arena should I use it full power.
Kartikeya: "Heed my call, the God of War has arrived. Cut the void and leave nothing behind. Emptiness..
Y/n: "All you shall die and be silent.."
Diehauser: "Dyed in darkness, swallow the light.."
Many of the warriors around us had used this time to try and escape or simply forfeit. Those who remained, all saw three terrifying smiles all appear at once.
Kartikeya: "Dhumavati!"
Diehauser: "Dul Ar Neamhní
Y/n: "ENUMA ELISH!!"
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. We all fired our ultimate and it was the last thing I remembered. Blank. A dark void with a body-less conscious was all that was left. If I use my Clairvoyance, perhaps I might find a way out.
"Nonsense. A king has a duty to fulfill. I have to rise up.. I still have so much to-"
??: "******?.."
I feel some weight on me before I'm able to open my eyes again. I find myself sitting on my throne, exhausted beyond belief. I find it hard to look up but I do so anyways while proping myself up like a King should.
I see a young man, about the same age as me, looking at me with a sign of compassion. I knew not who he was but a sense of warmth sat in as I couldn't feel a ounce of hostility, conspiracy or anything related to it.
As I observed him, he had an aura of familiarity. Behind him, 3 other children, not much older than him, stood with smiles on their faces as well. The golden boy kneeled down before me as he faked his smile.
??: "It's okay.. You can leave it to us now.."
A wave of relief settled on me upon hearing his words. Along with it, a thread of doubt and uncertainty crept on in the back of my head. Until he spoke up again.
??: "You've done a job that nobody throughout history could of accomplished.. and we can't thank you enough for your time and sacrifice.. please.. You can rest now.."
A sign of pain was just barely hidden enough for one to not notice it, but not for me. They spoke from the heart while the 3 behind him looked down to avoid showing emotion.
This child.. I'm not sure who he was, but I could feel it in my heart. He was.. ****..
~~~~~~~~~~
Eucliwood: "Arise"
I suddenly wake up as Eucliwood rubs her head from the pain.
Issei: "Told you it would work"
I'm surrounded by everyone as I am slow to sit up. I was unsure what I saw
Y/n: "How long was I out for?
Vali: "Not much, maybe.. 20 minutes?"
Issei: "We all got sent to the aftercare after you 3 decided to explode the arena.. You 3 tied for 2nd place by the way"
I remembered that much and felt slightly embarrassed for allowing myself to fall victim to my own excitement.
Y/n: "Wait, 2nd? Who the hell landed 1st?"
They cleared the way as Amagi looked away while scratching the back of her head.
Vali: "She was the farthest person from the vicinity. Therefore, the last person to be impacted by the blast"
Issei: "On top of that, she used the sniper accidentally and shot a bullet towards the incoming blast, which stalled it for a couple seconds"
Y/n: "Hm, so I am a genius indeed. I created a weapon capable of stalling Ea, even for a few seconds"
Amagi: "Please take it back!"
Y/n: "Nah, you can keep it. I want the most important people in my life safely protected"
Eucliwood: "I want a gun like that too"
Y/n: "I'll make you something like that too"
I pat her head before sitting Eucliwood on my lap.
Amagi: "W-What exactly is this little core in the middle if I may ask?"
Y/n: "I took it out of my Ea after my father gave me the original"
A silence fell over the room as they all slowly turned to me.
"YOU DID WHAT?!"
