Two Becomes One Part 5

Su Yi dashed to me and her sword dragged along the ground. She spun in a circle and slashed, releasing a powerful blade beam. I blocked the blade beam and was getting pushed back. She slashed again and released another blade beam. The second blade beam fused with the first, making an X.

"Lunatic Cross!" Su Yi said then the blade beams exploded and blew me back.

I landed on my feet and dashed towards Su Yi again. She slashed and I parried and sweep kicked her off her feet and slashed quickly 5 times then blew her away with a ball of darkness. Su Yi yelped and stumbled on her feet.

"Whoa whoa!" She caught her balance and looked shocked when I appeared in front of her and my golden eyes glowed then I kicked her aside and slashed three times.

Three blade beams rushed in her direction. Her perfect blocked two of them and they were deflected back towards me. Her sword began to glowed and violet lightning crackled around her arm.

"Here we go!" Su Yi stomped quickly with both feet and tossed her sword in the sky. "Master Skill: Slash of Equity!"

"Master Skill already?!" I said in shock.

Su Yi jumped up and caught the handle of the sword and slashed down and released a blade beam that split into three blade beams. I barely dodged them and looked at Su Yi.

"If she used her Master Skill this early.." I started to speak.

"Bingo! I have multiple Master Skills! One Far Range, One Mid Range, One Close Range! I fully mastered Seven Moons and my reward was three Master Skills!" Su Yi smiled. "That was my Far Ranged Master Skill!"

"Mastered Seven Moons.." I said.

"Weapons like ours have something called Weapon Proficiency. The more we use our weapon and the more we master their skills, the better the rewards of the weapon. Your Lunar Arms use the same type of gimmick. The only difference is your created weapons can evolve while the Ancient Relics are already fully evolved. The only thing we need to do is draw out it's full power. You had a bad resonance with your sword, and because Bushido is no longer possessing the blade, you can't unlock the weapon's True Skill." Su Yi said.

"And I didn't plan to...I am glad he is gone because now I can fight using my own skills!" I said and dashed to Su Yi.

We clashed and our blades locked and sparks flew. Su Yi saw my eyes glowing and my aura sparkle brightly. She began to slide back and I kicked her away.

"Trinity Break!" I slashed and hit Su Yi.

Su Yi grunted in pain and slid back as some of her magic energy was drained. She held her chest and panted. She dashed to me and faked an attack and I fell for it. She tossed her blade in the sky and her magic gauntlets appeared on her hand and she struck me quickly six times in my stomach then uppercut me into the sky and jumped up. She caught her sword and slashed six times then kicked me to the ground. I recovered and she landed and stabbed the ground as lightning surged on the ground and sending me upwards again. She jumped up and grabbed my face and crashed down to the ground with me. She jumped back towards her sword and grabbed it. I grunted and stood up.

"Damn you're strong.." I coughed.

"I am not to be underestimated!" Su Yi said. "I lived for many centuries mastering my techniques! I will not be beaten in battle so easily!"

"Yeah whatever. Try this on for size." I said.

I dashed to her and palmed her chest and tossed my blade in the sky and kicked her then twirled and punched her in the air and appeared behind her and kicked her back down then landed and my sword stuck to the ground then a black circle appeared under Su Yi.

"Oblivion Burst!" I snapped my fingers and a dark beam crashed to the ground and sent Su Yi flying in the sky and crashing back down.

"Nngh! I...see..." Su Yi coughed and stood up. "No wonder you are named the strongest person in the land...but I can tell you lost something that enabled hidden power. Your Bushido Mode. You've gained new power in place of your old power...and I think you know that new power. Heavenless Bushi Mode."

"Heavenless Bushi...hmph. I don't have the time to experiment!" I said and dashed to my sword and picked it up and my seal shined a faint gold color. "Once I defeat you, I will save my land and continue my reign as a Dark Queen of all of Arcania! I will rebuild this cursed land!"

I clashed with Su Yi. She glared and pushed me back.

"You think you can do that if you're dead? You have to defeat me to pursue that destiny! I am the gatekeeper to your future!" Su Yi bellowed. "Master Skill: Divinity Force!"

Su Yi stabbed her sword into the ground and a huge repulsive force of energy grew and I summoned a barrier to block it, but the barrier began to crack. The symbol glowed brighter and particles of energy emerged from the seal then gold markings appeared around my neck and on the left side of my body. The barrier shattered and an explosion happened. Su Yi stood up and looked shocked. I opened my eyes and saw I was still alive. I saw my aura calmly surging around my body. It was still dark aura, but with a hint of gold.

"What is this..?" I asked.

"Heavenless Bushi Mode. You must've subconsciously activated it during my Divinity Force.." Su Yi said.

My Heavenless Bushi Mode gave me an ability called Queen's Retribution. It boosted my attack by 150% and gave me Ignore Parameters and Energy Drain.

"I only have 14 hours left.." I said. "I need to hurry this up!"

I bellowed and dashed towards Su Yi and we clashed ones and the force of my attack sent her backwards. This felt like Bushido Mode..but more under control and less of a monster. I dashed after her and the blade of my sword released a deep black aura. Su Yi bellowed and her sword shined a light blue.

"Lunar Reboot!" Su Yi bellowed and her aura surged. She gained a 150% boost in speed.

She flickered and appeared in front of me and slashed. I parried her attack and we clashed multiple times and our auras surged powerfully, breaking the ground. We both bellowed and clashed one last time and the clash released a massive repulsive force that blew us both in opposite directions. I landed on my feet and slid backwards. Su Yi flipped off one hand and landed on her feet then dashed to me. She yelled and her eyes emitted light aura. I dashed to Su Yi and my eyes emitted black and gold aura. We clashed quickly and then parried each other's attacks and slashed through each other and turned around, clashing again.

"You better not lose this, Stella." Sazuka was watching from the magic screen with her arms crossed.

"I will not fall to you!" I bellowed.

"I won't just hand over this sword!" Su Yi bellowed.

We dashed into each other and bounced off each other, taking the battle to the skies. Su Yi warped behind me and struck me multiple times and went for a final hit. I warped behind her and axe kicked her down. She grabbed my leg and threw me down then crashed onto the ground afterwards. We both panted and laid on the ground to rest for a second. We then got up and looked at each other.

"One strike..is all I need to end this..!" Su Yi said.

"Don't get ahead of yourself...I won't be going down at all!" I said.

Our aura levels were low, low enough to execute one last powerful strike. Su Yi got in her stance and I got in mine.

"I'm giving this final attack...everything I've got left.." Su Yi said.

"I shall do the same.." I said.

We looked at each other and dashed towards each other. Our swords shined brightly. We went for the final attack at the same time.

"Master Skill: Full Moon Rising!" Su Yi bellowed.

"Heavenless Bushi Technique!" I bellowed.

We slashed through each other at the same time. It was silent...the only thing we heard was the wind howling. Su Yi's aura vanished and she passed out. I fell on one knee and exhaled then my aura vanished and the markings retracted back to the symbol on my left cheek. I coughed and covered my mouth. I uncovered my mouth and blood was on my hand. I looked around and saw the room turn normal and I stood up and walked to Su Yi. She grunted and winced a bit then looked at me.

"Stella.." She smiled.

"I fully understand mother's wish now. Through this battle...I saw it. Her wish is to build a country where everyone can live in peace...you showed me...her true wish.." I said.

"I'm glad you understand...you don't have to change who you are...I actually like your toxicity..your personality...you may be a Dark Queen..but out of all the royals..you are the only one who actually has a heart in them.." Su Yi stood up and stumbled on me. I caught her and looked at her. "I've been stuck down here for ages...Can you grant my wish? I want to help build this land into a land of peace...My wish is that you set me and Sazuka free from this dungeon. We will join your Nightmare Assembly..."

"Su Yi.." I said and smiled. "I shall grant that wish.."

"Thank you...Now for your reward. Lunaris deems you worthy." Su Yi smiled.

I took the Seven Moons from Su Yi's hands then held it up. Blue aura surged around my body and a cursed mark on my back shined then shattered.

"The curse has been broken." Lunaris said then her Spirit left the sword and looked at me and Su Yi. "I shall continue blessing the Kingdom of Lunia...as the Goddess of Lunia. Stella, save Arcania from the hands of Zephyr and the Emperor..only you can do it. They are your two main targets...The Emperor plans on continuing his injustice through the Supreme Ten..Sadly there is no way of saving the last seven members of the Supreme Ten..you will have to kill them. Use the Holy Eclipse..that sword is how you will kill both Zephyr and the Emperor."

"I understand. I will do my best!" I nodded.

"I'm counting on you to save everyone.." Lunaris said then slowly faded away.

I fused together the Seven Suns and Seven Moons. The sword shined gold and black. The hilt of the sword had crystal in the middle that showed the full moon and the actual hilt has six edged resembling the sun. The blade was gold with a few streaks of black. Su Yi looked at the sword in awe and smiled. I nodded and smiled. A huge magic circle appeared on the floor and Su Yi and I looked at it. Sazuka walked up and looked at us. I smiled then we stepped on the magic circle.

Meanwhile at Fort Wrathum....

"Vanity Break!" Zain bellowed and stabbed the last Holy Order member invading the fort. His Phantom Weapon blew up and killed the member.

"Reinforcements coming!" Izumi called out.

"This is too much..! We can't take them all on!" Miyuna panted as she was tired.

"We have to continue fighting! There is no other choice!" Victoria said.

The Holy Order members charged and my army tiredly got ready. A beam of light crashed down and Su Yi, Sazuka, and I emerged from the beam and took down the members one by one. I bellowed and charged up energy and my eyes glowed. I slashed and a gold and black blade beam was released, killing the remaining reinforcements. I stood up straight and looked back.

"Kept you waiting huh?" I smiled.

"Stella!" Saya smiled happily.

"We are saved..!" Miyuna smiled.

"You made it in time.." Zain said.

"Meet the last two recruits of the Nightmare Assembly for now." I said. "The Reincarnation of Lunaris and an engineer, Su Yi."

"Hello!" Su Yi smiled.

"And my rival, the Sakura Samurai, Sazuka." I said.

"Pleased to make your acquaintance. I shall do all I can to fulfill the wishes of Queen Stella." Sazuka nodded.

"We have a full organization of powerhouses!" Saya said.

I looked at them then back and smiled. I was ready to take on Zephyr. I looked at everyone who was at the fort and they awaited my command. Zephyr isn't gonna know what hit him at all. The Nightmare Assembly will be the name all of Arcania will remember!
