Chapter 33 - Chapter 7 (part 2)

The trail attack was too fast in that form. But since Aikari had been in that kind of combat, he was able to keep on in the battle.

As Aikari is dodging, he begins to realize that the way Trail is attacking is like a boxing style. So it will be pretty hard if Aikari blocks the punch. If Aikari does, then maybe he will continue to get hit and won't be able to escape. Resulting in a total loss.

Aikari then continues to dodge and watch his step. He could just strike using his sword. But the way Trail is attacking makes it hard for him.

As Trail is about to land a heavy punch on Aikari, Aikari quickly kicks Trail in his stomach, and Aikari then smiles and says.

"That's pretty good. But I'm not going to lose here. Not with a person like you."

Aikari then put Nefier on his back, and suddenly Nefier's side began to wrap around his arm again. Trail didn't want that to happen, and he then went to interrupt Aikari with a punch.

"BOOM!"

A smoke appeared by that hit, and as Trail thought that he had already ended Aikari, he then saw Aikari's hand holding his punch.

"That hurt, you know? But do you think it's the end?"

Trail was so shocked that Aikari was able to block it. He couldn't believe it. Aikari's hands are red from that, but Nefier wrapped it with its side, and it became like a glove.

Trail chuckled and said,

"What an interesting human. It's a shock that you were able to keep up with me. I do not expect such a thing."

Aikari just smiles back and says that this is not a place where he will die. That he will fight for it. As Nefier successfully wraps around Aikari's hands. Aikari then goes to Trail and fights hand-to-hand combat with him.

Aikari was really experienced in hand-to-hand combat before. Despite learning gunning and swordsmanship, he also learned how to fight with his hands. Examining and learning all of the other martial arts. Aikari has gone that far because of his desire to kill people before. Even though he changed his direction to save people, those things are still useful for him. So that he can use it to protect himself and even the people around him. Reaching such power is why they all called him a monster.

Since Aikari knows that Trail is attacking in a boxing pattern, he knows that fighting with Trail directly will be useless. So he needs to find a chance where he can slip and strike Trail from somewhere else.

Aikari continues to parry and dodge as he has a chance. Stabilizing it that way, so he won't get stuck. He knows just now that Trails are defenseless with an attack from below. But since he has done it, he was pretty sure that Trail would be expecting it again and prepared for it. So he needs to find another opening.

"POW"

"TAB"

Both Aikari and Trail kept on the battle, and as they both exchanged blows, Trail just saw how skilled Aikari was. Trail was expecting that Aikari won't be able to keep on battling with his human body. But however, he was able to keep on it thanks to Nefier support that thickened his arm.

Trail then taps on his device and says.

"This is the end!"

"Punch of Destruction!"

Trail pulled his arm, and his arm turned red as he charged, and Trail landed a strike towards Aikari. But he didn't know that Aikari was waiting for it all this time. Knowing that Trail won't be able to move much as he did that, Aikari then quickly took that opportunity to slide to the right, and as he saw Trail begin to lose his focus, Aikari quickly kicked the back of Trail's knee, causing him to lose his balance, and he locked Trail down.

"Strength and power don't determine everything in a fight. All it needs is a will to fight and stand. Make sure you remember that."

Aikari was then about to draw his sword to end Trail, but that was when his eyes got flashed, and Trail was able to run from there. Aikari quickly stood up to look at where Trail is. But he didn't see Trail anywhere.

All he heard was just a voice.

"100% power reached. Now it's time."

"Over the limit."

Aikari saw that Trail appeared in front of him with a wide wing. Aikari then just looked at it and chuckled. He knows that Trail must be serious this time.

Trail then pointed his glaive at Aikari and said,

"Say your prayer. Because this time you will be defeated."

But Aikari just smiled and said,

"I have always wished that I was the final boss of the certain tale. But let's see if the person who went through that tale was able to reach a happy or bad ending."

Aikari draws his sword, and he gets into his ready stance, but this time, he gets into a samurai ready stance and takes a deep breath. Nefier wrapped itself around the sword, causing it to be a little longer.

"HARRGH!"

"ARGH!!"

Trail then began by charging towards Aikari and Aikari cancelled the attack by an upward slash on Trail's weapon. He then quickly pulled his sword back and was about to stab Trail, but Trail then dodged it and pulled his glaive back. He is going to return the strike directly on Aikari's head, but Aikari is able to dodge down, and he rotates his sword and gives a slash to Trail.

Unable to evade it, Trail got hit by it. But it is not critical damage. So Trail then rotates the glaive, and he then flies and charges and attacks Aikari.

"Spiral flash!"

Aikari quickly uses Nefier to form a shield and defend himself. But as the strike hit her shield, Aikari saw that it easily got destroyed by it.

He was so impressed by a power from Trail. But he didn't back down. He saw Trail quickly dash towards him as his shield broke, and Aikari then just faced it.

He prepared his sword and thrust it towards Trail and Trail. Also thrust his glaive towards Aikari.

But due to Trail surprise, Aikari was able to hold his glaive from moving, and Aikari pulled it towards him and pushed his sword further. It went through Trail's chest, and Trail then stopped moving.

Trail turns into ashes, and Aikari then says to Trail.

"Angel? Then I'm going to take all of you down.*

Aikari then took a deep breath as Trail disappeared. But then he saw another figure with a card. Trail's ashes were absorbed into a card on his hand.

Aikari looked at that person and saw he was walking to him with his staff-shaped scythe. Hikari saw a deck case on his belt, which makes him wonder if he was from a certain shounen manga world. That person put the card that Trail's data was absorbed into in his deck case and looked at Aikari.

"This world is sure beautiful. But I wonder why the people like you exist."

Aikari then looked at that person and asked if he had a problem there. Unlike Professor and his friends, this guy just feels different. Aikari was just tired from the battle before, and it was dawn now. Is there anything that this guy wants from him?

That person then draws a card from his deck and puts it on the slot on his scythe.

"Sutovi."

Aikari then saw Sutovi appear out of nowhere in front of him. He then wondered if that person summoned him there. Sutovi then begins to charge towards Aikari.

When Aikari was about to block the attack, suddenly a portal appeared in front of him, and that person that came out from that portal blocked the attack and killed Sutovi.

"Hikari!"

Aikari was expecting that Hikari would come. Since the battle might have ended. But what is happening here? Why are there just a lot of people appearing now?

Hikari then looked at that person with a serious expression. "Who are you?" That person then just stayed calm and introduced himself.

"I'm the perfect data, Tarialz. Created by Professor. I'm here to avenge them."

Hikari and Aikari stood up and looked at him. Due to Hikari's ability, Aikari could feel all of his wounds begin to heal up. But he is still tired from that fight. So he then just tries to be aware of what will happen.

Hikari asked that guy what his motive was, and that guy then hit his scythe on the ground twice, and a lot of screens appeared in front of him. Aikari and Hikari were also able to see it.

"A plan to create a new world. By defeating a human object named Hikari and Aikari."

Tarialz then pointed his scythe at both Hikari and Aikari. Warned them and told them that it was the end of their life. Hikari then told Aikari to stay back, as he saw Aikari was tired. But Aikari disagreed with it and said that they're going to fight together.

Hikari didn't say anything, then smiled, and Tarialz then drew a card from his deck and inserted it in the slot of his scythe top.

A three-figure appeared before them, and it was all Sutovi but in a different form. So Hikari and Aikari then go and fight with all of them.

Tarialz looked at both Hikari and Aikari who were fighting, and asked himself.

"Since both of them are talented. Won't it be hard for me alone?"

He looked at Hikari.

"But won't that just be different if I take down this king first?"

Tarialz then draws another card from his deck and puts it in his scythe.

"Thunder Impact."

Tarialz then pointed his scythe at Hikari, and fast lightning came out from his weapon and struck Hikari.

"BOOM!"

Aikari was so shocked as he saw that; he then looked at Hikari and shouted out his name. But as he did, all three Professor clones suddenly went to him and attacked him.

Aikari was unable to block the attack with all three of them, so he tried to make a distance and wait for the opening where he could take them out one by one.

On the other hand, the smoke from that thunder disappeared, and Tarialz then saw Hikari still standing there. His body healed up as Hikari looked at Tarialz. Hikari's weapon then changed into a bow, and Hikari quickly gave Tarialz a shot. But Tarialz inserted a card, 'Shield,' to protect himself from that.

But his shield was just destroyed by the time Hikari's arrow hit his shield. Tarialz got blown away from that, and Hikari quickly dashed to him and attacked him as his weapon turned into a sword.

Tarialz is holding Hikari's sword with his scythe. Try to push Hikari back. But his strength is not enough. Hikari kept pushing his sword, and blood came out as his sword hit Tarialz's neck.

Tarialz then laughed, and he drew another card to insert it into his scythe, but Hikari stopped him by stabbing his arm with a sword that came out from his left arm.

Tarialz then had nowhere to go, and suddenly one of Professor clone come to Hikari and blew a shot at Hikari that caused Hikari to get blown a bit by it.

Tarialz then thanked Professor for that, and he then quickly took that chance to regain his stance and then insert another card in his scythe.

"Enhance Attack!"

Tarialz scythe then turns red, and Tarialz then dashes to Hikari and fights with him. Tarialz knows that Hikari was the only high-value target there. If he took Hikari out, then it will be an absolute victory for him.

But even for him to say that, he saw that Aikari was fighting with the professor's clone all too well. It then just makes him wonder which one he should fight first. But as he did, he then chuckled and said.

"It doesn't matter. I will kill both of you."
