Chapter 45: Dark Grail War

We got ready to enact our plan once Sophia, Dean, Merlin and Shiro found the people that were placing bombs and eliminated them without hesitation. They were people acting as members of Camelot, but were only spied sent there to place and explode the bombs that would serve as their master plan. I was stationed with everyone else in the action to the assault we would take on the army of Johnny that would be coming to the specific locations. King Arthur and I met eyes before he ordered to charge, since we had seen their confused assault towards the location. It was safe to say that they were not prepared whatsoever to deal with our countermeasures, or Dean and Sophia who had gotten way stronger as a result of their training. They were at every place on the battlefield obliterating soldiers, monsters, and whatever else they had to fight against in this war, but they regrouped farther away. A black mist covered me while I was fighting multiple demons and enemy knights, King Arthur and I were the only ones there until we saw Johnny. He did not look good, but I could feel an immense pressure being released by him with him seemingly not even trying to put pressure on us. King Arthur and I met eyes before looking at Johnny at him again, by which he was no longer in the same spot, but walking closer to us. He was using the same skill as before, but this time he was using it at a higher magnitude along with something else, the skill was Devil's Fright. It was a skill that even devils were afraid of, but neither one of us backed down from this fight so the only way to go is forward.

     "Vicente!" He threw me Excalibur, "This is your fight, so make me proud and win!" He gave a hearty smile.

     "No problem. Use skill: Aura. Use skill: Weapon Eyes. Use skill: Power Storage Release. Use skill: Holy Radiance. Use skill: Dragon Infusion. Use skill: Demonic Infusion. Use skill: Demonic Shroud. Use skill: Lucky Dice x2

     Strength, Speed, Defense, Magic Resistance

     4x

     Rebound= 2x power given." Caos had finally allowed me to use Holy Radiance with the sword after a lot of convincing, but Excalibur seemed even stronger than before. We crossed swords and I could tell that he was definitely pushing Devil's Fright to its absolute limit. 

     "Use skill: Conqueror Style- Conquista del Infierno x2." He barely managed to block my onslaught of attacks, but something changed in the air which was when the tide of the battle changed once more. Two clones just as strong as him came which really made it hard to focus on the original, but they drained him even more, so I had a theory to test out.

     "Hey Jonathan! Remember that time I killed our sister!" His clones along with him all started to shake for a bit before one of them disappeared, I guess adding another memory to his most horrible memories made the clone disappear. That was all that I knew so his power would now grow with the added effect of his clone receiving the boost, but being unstable. I had to end this quickly.

     'It's ready!' Perfect, "Use skill: Dragon of Chaos- Nightmare Mode." I charged with everything I had while my eyes copied some of his skills. He had actually gotten multiple buff skills that were similar to Devil's Fright which he was starting to activate once he saw my transformation. I held Dragonic Chaos and Excalibur even tighter before using everything I had left in one shot.

     "Use skill: Conqueror Style- Conquista Fi-" Not enough mana...shit! I had to figure out how to win without my strongest move. I remembered something that Dante told me, he said I had wasted so much power to fight with so I started to channel my power like a flowing stream. I concentrated so much that my mind became empty with the only thing I could hear was in my mind, which was a water drop hitting a stream. I felt different and stronger even, so I used the skill I could use, "Use skill: Conqueror Style- Basic Horizontal Slash x2." It felt exactly like the Conquista Final if not even stronger without having to waste power. I had broken through not only the clone and knocked out Jonathan, but slashed through the black mist, which hardened to become a black box, we were in. The battle outside was already reaching its close with the enemy retreating with maybe about ¼th of its forces still being alive, but that didn't decrease their power. It probably increased it if anything, but for now we had won a huge victory. I was limping after the massive usage of power, so I was helped back to Camelot by Lancelot while Jonathan was restricted by Merlin. 

     "Here you go." My limp arms handed back Excalibur while the Knight of the Round Table looked amazed that I could even use it.

     "I thought only King Arthur could use it!" Lancelot said before being told our exploits of the last time we had been here. I was allowed to rest while Chloe scolded me about being reckless and not running away when I saw that I was possibly outmatched. I apologize profusely before getting the idea to finally do the thing that I had been thinking of for such a long time now. I felt that I was finally ready to do it.

     "I'm sorry, but I got something to make it up to you with." I stood up still bandaged. I pulled out two rings from my inventory before getting on one knee with a smile and every bit of confidence I would muster, "Chloe Sol, will you do me the pleasure of making me the happiest man on the planet and marrying me until death do us part?" She was in tears and smiling while nodding her head up and down.

[A/N: This second chapter is for many things like a super late 20k views special and as an apology. It was my complete fault for the next chapter of "Guess We're A Party" not coming out since I was not having the best day on Saturday. I decided not to help write so this is an apology for that and a special for reaching 20k. Thank you for reading and I'm completely open to criticism! :) ]
