031- Summon, Death Harbinger
"I have to admit, that was a good use of your skills." Seiya stood up, dusting off the rubble that was covering his skin.
Arcana saw Seiya stand up, reaching his hand out towards her and motioning for her to come.
'This guy!'
Arcana was preparing another spell when she heard Seiya speak again.
"Actually, let me help you."
[Supreme Heal]
[Greater Reinvigorate]
Seiya spoke in his mind.
Arcana watched as Seiya aimed his hands towards her mother, clapping his hands together. She turned towards her mom, to see a blue-ish green aura surrounding her.
"Wh-What? Arcana?" Aria slowly opened her eyes, blasting up when she didn't see her daughter.
"What did you do to her?!" Arcana yelled at Seiya, dashing toward her mothers side.
"Well its clear that you can't take me on alone so I gave her the chance to help you." Aria had did a quick analysis when she woke up and was shocked to see her daughter, dusty and sweaty, fighting Seiya.
"What does he mean? He's no where near strong enough to take you on, what's even happening?!" Aria stood up heavily berating Seiya with sure confidence in her daughters skills.
"I'm afraid the only real chance you have at fufilling the deal would be with her help, so I wouldn't miss it." Aria was shocked at how, apparently, her daughter made a deal with the man who slaughtered their village, but quickly ignored it knowing her daughter would never do something that didn't benefit them.
"Mom. Im not sure if I have enough time to explain or not, so just know that all you have to do is go all out, don't hold back whatsoever against this monster." Aria saw as her daughter grabbed her arm, with a serious look on her face.
'Monster? At most this guy could only be a peak C Rank.'
"Okay." She gave her daughter a look of confirmation. After confirming that her daughter was serious, she re-used a skill she had used earlier.

================
Aria's jaw dropped upon seeing Seiya's stats.
"What. The-"
"So are going to finish or not?" Seiya cut off Aria, giving a sinister smile to the duo.
"You know that there is almost no chance that we win this, right?" Aria whispered to her daughter, still confused as to how Seiya had advanced so much when it hadn't even been a year since they last met.
"I've long known that he was much stronger than us, but he said we could live as long as we fought him."
Hearing this Aria's expression changed, immense confusion appearing on her face.
"If you guys keep ignoring me, I might end up changing my mind."
"Ugh, get ready!" Arcana dashed out leaving a crater behind before approaching Seiya.
[Cut]
[Sink]
[Ground Spikes]
[Earthen Wall]
Arcana cast four skills consecutively. Cut, which split Seiya in half, and then sink, which caused the ground under him to... Sink, leaving a huge hole for Seiya to fall in. With the same combination as before she used [Ground Spikes] and an [Earthen Wall] to impale Seiya into the ground.
Arcana waited for Seiya to erupt from the ground, and like she predicted, he burst through the stone with his hands, climbing out of the pit.
"I'd prefer if you didn't use the same attacks over and over again."
"Also I think you both should come at the same time, you have most definitely fought together before so I don't think it will be a problem." The two woman looked at each other, nodding and dashing towards him.
[Pressure]
[Spatial Slash]
[Cut]
[Wind Blade]
[Corrosion]
[Wind Bullet]
...
It had been 15 minutes since Seiya arrived, and both girls were currently laying on the ground, breathing heavily. To their right, there was a humongous pile of rubble, lava and multiple other elements could be seen in the pile of destruction.
Abruptly, a hand shot through the pile, sending multiple rocks flying.
"Okay, I got to admit that that one hurt." Seiya climbed out of the rubble and dusted himself off.
'I gained quite a bit out of this, might as well use the last few minutes.
[Supreme Heal]
[Greater Reinvigorate]
Seiya spoke in his mind, aiming his hands toward the duo. Immediately after, a blue and green aura surrounded the two, immediately replenishing all their mana and injuries.
"Well, lets keep it going. Although it will be over pretty soon." Seiya said while smiling at the two.
"Arcana, I'm gonna show you a skill that I acquired recently, I honestly wouldn't have used it due to the consequences, but I can't stand knowing that this murderer is still alive."
"Wha-" Before Arcana could say anything, Aria stood up and disappeared, reappearing right in front of Seiya.
"What are we gonna try thi-" Seiya was getting ready to mock Aria when she cut him off.
[Summon, Death Harbinger]
A shadowy figure that towered over Seiya, appeared right behind him. It had a huge cloak covering all of its features, and a large scythe in its right hand.
"What do I need to do, and what will be payed." A raspy voice spoke, startling Seiya making him spin around.
"Who is this guy." Seiya questioned looking towards Aria, to which Aria looked back, ignoring his question.
"I will give you my soul, in exchange for this monstrosity to be sent to the deepest part of Gehenna." Arcana who had stood a distance away, widened her eyes hearing what her mother just said.
"NO-" Arcana dashed towards her mother, reaching out for her in the process.
"That is a deal." The summon spoke, grasping Seiya's throat.
'What the h*ll?!?' It shoved its hand down Seiya's throat, pulling out a dark red orb.
Right after it collected the orb, Seiya's body dropped, laying limply on the floor.
"Wait!" Arcana screamed, just for it to ignore her.
"You next." The Death Harbinger stepped towards Aria, doing the same thing as it had just done to Seiya, except this time instead of shoving the orb into its pocket, it threw it in its mouth.
"Ha, that one was pretty good. It's been a while since I've had a full soul for my own." As this was said, Aria's body was dropped on the floor as the figure disappeared.
