Fierce Battle
"You...why" The emperor said with shock as he turned to see who had stabbed him.
"Yes it's me, and why, oh that's simple, I'm simply doing this for my family, when my grandfather came to this continent a long time ago, he was faced with discrimination and with his and my father's own effort, they built up a reputation that would allow us to keep tabs on the activities of the continent" Alexander said with a grin as he explained his reasons.
"So you were a spy all along, I knew we shouldn't have trusted him, but did you think that we are pushovers, it's 6 on 1" Shadow said with a grin.
"Actually it's 6 on 4" Alexander said with a chuckle as he stared at two glowing streaks of light that were approaching him.
"Ah, sorry we're late, we encountered some problems on the way but it's taken care of" As the streaks of lights arrived, their appearance could now be seen, they were three demons, in their hands were weapons which had blood dripping from them.
"Oh actually we just begin so you are right on time" Alexander said with a grin.
"Did you think that just because you joined them so we would be scared of you, you will seriously regret your actions" Griffin said as he waved his hand causing a large halberd to appear in his hands.
"Yeah and it's still 6 on 4" Frost said with anger as he condensed an ice spear.
"Oh don't worry, 2 of us are enough to finish you off" Alexander said as his aura exploded.
"Wait, how is this possible, you're at the SSS rank, so all this time you were hiding your rank" Shadow said with anger, since they were kids, he had taken Alexander to be his rival and now that he had seen his rival stronger than him, he was unwilling to accept this.
"Let's finish them off and take the target, I can sense his aura below" One of the demons who had a crescent shape on his forehead said.
"Hmm then I'll go get him then, Draken let's go, time for you to get some combat experience" The second demon with a circle on his forehead said as he and the third demon flew downwards.
"How dare you ignore us, you filthy demon" Griffin said with anger as he swung his halberd towards the demons while the figure of a Griffin condensed behind him.
"A weakling that doesn't know his place" The demon with a crescent mark said as he suddenly appeared before Griffin and held the halberd while he threw a punch which struck Griffin and threw him backwards.
"Uhh, he's strong" Griffin said with a cough as he vomited blood.
'He managed to seriously injure Griffin, the strongest of us with only one punch" The Emperor said with a frown as he swallowed a pill to heal himself, he knew that this opponent was going to be tough.
[Author's Note: When I say strongest, I mean in terms of physical strength]
"I'll take care of him, you take care of the rest" Alexander said with a grin as he headed towards the emperor.
"Oh I've been wanting to do this all these years, you don't know how excited I am now" Alexander said as his eyes turned green, wings sprouted from his back.
"How couldn't you betray us like that, after all we've been through" The Emperor said angrily as he waved his hand causing a sword to appear.
"Huh, did you really think that I considered you all my comrades, you were all just chess pieces to me, now you've lost all your value" Alexander smirked as he shot towards the Emperor.
SONIC CRY
His head turned into that of an eagle as he released a shrill cry which rushed towards the Emperor.
SHIELD OF PROVIDENCE
A translucent shield appeared as the sonic cry struck it and passed through it easily as it headed towards the emperor who released a sword move that struck it and caused it to tremble before it passed through it and struck him causing his ear drums to vibrate.
"Arrg, what was that move?" The Emperor asked with shock as he circulated his mana to dispell the attack.
"That move wasn't physically so how could you use a shield to block it, it was a wave of mana so you should have just used mana to block it but instead you used a shield, how gullible, if this is all you've got then you are going down" Alexander mocked as his hands turned into class which he waved at the Emperor.
"Do t get too full of yourself, we just started" The Emperor said calmly as his eyes glowed golden, he swung his sword to strike Alexander's claws and then twisted it an stabbed it towards his chest.
CLANG
A loud clanging sound could be heard like two metals striking each other, at the part where the emperor had stabbed, a silver shield could be seen.
"Hmm using despicable means, no wonder you dared to go against me" The emperor said with disdain.
"All is fair in love and war" Alexander muttered as he flapped his wings which shot him forward.
SONIC CRY
**********************************************
As the battle was raging between Alexander and the Emperor, another battle was going on at the side between the rest and the demon with the crescent shape in his forehead, they had exchanged several moves but they were still being suppressed, it had to be know that it was a 5 on 1 battle but this was the outcome.
"How is this guy..so strong" Frost panted as he got struck on the chest, he could feel his organs trembling, he had condensed a shield on his chest right before he had been struck but he had still been severely injured by that strike.
"Oh come on, are you guys tired?, we haven't even gotten serious yet" The demon said with a smirk as he glanced at the espers who were panting from tiredness.
"Yeah, you're right, we need a plan" Griffin said, his whole body was littered with injuries, his chest had large scratch mark on it.
"The only one who actually manages to Injure him is Griffin, the rest of us don't even come close, hmmm, Frost do you think you can hold him in place for a few seconds, just a few seconds?" Shadow asked as he grabbed his arm, his whole arm had been broken.
"Huh, I think if I gave it my all, I could hold him in place for a few seconds, why?" Frost replied with a frown.
"Okay, I think I have a plan" Shadow said with a smile.
"Then let's hear it" Blake said anxiously.
"Mei Ling, I need you to use your bloodline skills to distract him, Blake and Griffin will be in charge of the main power, and frost will hold him down, so listen up, Mei Ling will distract him and frost will hold him down, after which Blake and Griffin will deliver an all-out attack, after that I just need even a small cut to inject my poison into him and let the poison do the rest" Shadow explained his plan.
"Huh, are you sure that will take care of him?" Blake asked suspiciously.
"Of course not, the poison just needs to weekend him and then some of us can stall him while the others will go over to help the Emperor to take care of Shadow, after which we will come here to finish this one off" Shadow replied with a deep breath.
"Well I hope this works because if it doesn't, then were dead" Griffin said with a sigh.
"Well it's a risk, so let's get back, when I give the order, you guys will execute the plan" Shadow said with a nod as they glanced at the demon.
"Are you guys done making whatever lame plan you were cooking up, if you are then let's continue, I don't have all day to play with you" The demon said with a smirk.
SOUL SCORCH
Mei Ling's eyes suddenly glowed as a transparent arrow shot condensed before her and shit towards the demon who smiled and raised his hands to block it but it passed through it and went into his body which caused his expression to change abruptly to that of pain as he grabbed his chest.
"Urrrg, do it now" Mei Ling said with pain as she vomited out blood, blood also streamed down her eyes, she had just used a soul attack against someone much more powerful than her so the backlash wasn't easy.
ICE STATUE
Frost pointed his hands towards the demon as ice started to spread across his body locking him in place, it spread all around his body until his whole body with the exception of his head was covered in ice.
"That's all I can do now, the rest is up to you, it will only last for a few seconds so hurry up" Frost said with fatigue as he moved to the side.
"That's enough, it's time for payback" Griffin said as he spread his arms, the muscles around his body all tensed up as a majestic figure of a griffin appeared behind him, this one was even more well-defined than the last one.
MIGHT OF THE GRIFFIN
His eyes glowed with a green light as he rushed towards the demon and threw a punch, at the side, Blake also breathed in and when he breathed out, a hint of fire popped out as he raised his hand towards the sky where a large flame dragon was condensed, he put the last of his mana into it as he swung his hands towards the demon which caused the dragon to move towards him.
At this moment, even the demon at his level of strength gulped in as he saw the approaching attacks.
Meanwhile below them a bloodbath was about to commence which would change the lives of several people.
