Chapter 9: The last moments and The New Beginning
°
Balimor have been fighting since arisha and blank run away from the village to escape, Balimor already knew that he's just going to die in here and so he at least let the biggest problem on this chaos
the Demon Who's Riding on top of a huge Beast, a huge black beast that is big as a whole house with sharp fangs and fierce eyes that can intimidate a normal human it has a ridiculous strength so it's not something that should be underestimated...but for balimor this is not a big deal to defeat, but the huge treat is the demon who's riding it....he can cast dark magics that will gonna weaken anyone's strength, and this demon is not just a normal part of the demon's army, because he's Kiva....one of the Strongest shaman in demons army...and with this huge beast strength partnered up with Kiva's Curse, And Debuffing Magics, he can defeat a higher ranking knight easily...
The surrounding's become silent, it is either the people already escaped or....died
and then the demons started showing up one after another
[now...then...let's...end...this....]
balimor gritted his teeth
(this is....really hopeless huh...well, i guess this is already the end for me....)
balimor is wounded, and his wound are getting worse because of Kiva's curse magic...
kiva is preparing for an another attack and started to chant again, and then balimor ready a defense stance, it's as if like he's just toying with balimor because they can easily kill him right now but the other demons arent attacking...
[Well....then...farewell....balimor....]
[tch]
a purple smoke like attack has engaged to balimor and he tried to cover his whole body with aura to counter it but it's not effective at all....
and then the huge beast started his attack from above and balimor dodged it somehow....he's so weak right now and doesn't have anymore energy to fight, but balimor thought to his self that if he died here right now, he might as well make a one hit to his enemy before dying
The huge beast is continuously attacking balimor and balimor is dodging them
[You....are...so....persistent...]
balimor made a smug look at kiva, it's as if he's provoking him to attack more...but then kiva raise his right arm and the huge beast stopped attacking...
This time kiva is the one who will attack, he chant an another attack and a skulled smoke attack balimor at such speed, balimor didnt even make it to dodge them, and that leave him kneeled down on the ground
[Farewell....]
suddenly a ray of light attacked shiva when it's just about the time he's going to end balimor, and then he saw...
[arisha...]
the swarming demons attacked arisha one after another but arisha is killing them all so easily and her wounds are all healed up...
[what...]
after some time the number of the demons decrease, with just arisha killing mostly half of them....
[i...expect...the...two...of...you...to..ve...so...strong...but...what...is...happening....in...here...arisha....no...should...i...say....the....sage's....disciple...?]
[just shut up!]
arisha come to balimor's and healed him, the wounds healed so fast, that it's as if balimor doesn't have any wounds at all on the first place...
[arisha? wh-what about blank!?]
[he's safe...]
balimor already realize that arisha make blank escape by himself and arisha came to his aid to help him...
balimor stand up and grin
[alright, let's do this...but this guy's attack is so powerful, how should we deal with his cursed magic...]
[leave his attacks to me]
balimor is confused and thinking, is she going to be the one who's going to take all of the attack? what does she mean by leave it to her?
because on the first place Kiva's curse magic is so powerful and it's so hard to counter it, but balimor trust arisha, he's sure that she have a plan....
Balimor rushed to the enemy, and tried to attack but as he expected the huge beast blocked his...even rho he's already using aura he still cant wound it and so to say kiva's curse magic...but balimor realize...the curse magic that has been weighing him down...is gone?
as he look at arisha, she gave him a smile as if she's trying to say "do it"
[That's why go for it balimor!, leave his attacks to me!]
[oraaaaaaaa]
balimor covered his whole body with his aura and change his stance, and then the aura around his changed as well balimor grin and attack, he just suddenly appeared at the back of kiva but the huge beast blocked it somehow...kiva was so shocked
[what...is...the..meaning...of...this!]
kiva chant an another of his curse magic and balimor didnt dodge them, and he got caught up with it and balimor was debuffed again...
[Urghh]
[I will not gonna let you!]
arisha raise her staff and healed balimor again...and the debuff is gone, and it even make balimor more stronger and faster to his attacks
[WHAT...!?]
[I dont know how as well but, thanks to blank that i discover this]
[y-you....you...bastards!!!]
balimor attacked again and the huge beast is on the way again, it blocked balimors attack with it's huge arms and just a few hours ago it can block every attack of balimor, but by the time balimor landed his attack on the beast's arm it was badly hurt
the huge beast roared in pain because of balimors attack, and balimor come to arisha's side in instant
the huge beast's is roaring in pain, it's too loud, that it hurts to ears, even kiva was irritated by it
[aarrghh...how...how...did...you...manage...to...counter...my...attacks...tell...me....sage's...disciple....]
arisha didnt answer him
[alright....you...guys...force...me...to...do...this..]
kiva raise his staff and chant a more bigger attack...no it's not an attack, instead the dark purple smoke is covering the huge beast instead, the huge beast is puking a black liquid on it's mouth, it's disgusting, but instead of being hurt, it's as if like the huge beast is in the middle of his rage, anger, madness the huge beast roared and kiva come's down at the beast and is standing at the ground...he look so small just by looking at him
[now...then...i...will....suppose....to...use...this...to...the...heroes....but....arisha....is...a....more...bigger...threat...right...now...]
[w-what is that]
arisha is so disgusted at the beast and to kiva...
[this is a forced rage state,but dont worry...i dont think we'll going to lost at this....]
balimor look at arisha and smiled and he grins at kiva and ready to attack again
the battle continues again, kiva is weakened as well now because of what he just did, and same for arisha as well, because she's using too much healings and buffings to balimor...but both side isn't giving up
[Balimor! do it!]
[ALRIGHT!]
[you....BASTARDS!!]
arisha raised her staff again and balimor is attacking non stop at the beast again, and the beast is attacking as well a non stop change of blows from both side and destroyed everthing on the way...balimors is smiling while in the middle of the battle, as if like it's been awhile since he did this
and then arisha is done chanting now for a more bigger attack
[w-what?...]
kiva was so shocked at the bright light coming out of arisha and balimor, as if both of them are the light itself kiva dont know what's happening because of the light, and balimor jumped from mid air and landed to the ground under rhe huge beast openings
[DO IT ARISHA!]
[HEAL!]
balimor is buffed once again and readied his attack from bellow to the huge beast's opening
balimor punched it's stomach and aent it flying above, balimor jumped mid air and attack from above at the second attack, the huge beast was lying on the ground from balimor's attack and balimor landed at the ground and rhe beast is about to stand up but balimor didnt let it to do so and attack again
an endless punches is attacking the huge beast and balimor change his stance again for his final attack, he cover his aura again and focus it on his fist and a tiger like aura come out from his fist that time he attacked the huge beast, the huge beast roared so loud again and it's trying to face head off balimor's attack
[Die!!!]
(Tiger's fist!)
the name of that technique "tiger's fist" attacked the huge beast leaving it lying on the ground and the battle against the beast ended
and arisha's final attack
[Purify...]
the beast is already unconscious and with arisha's "purify" it's disappearing and leave noting but dusk...
Kiva is nowhere to be seen anymore....
[tch...he ran away...]
arisha fell on the ground but balimor catches her, and the bigger problem is...kiva manage to put a curse magic again on the two of them...
arisha cant use anymore of her heal...she's so exhausted and more than that...she's pregnant right now...but arisha's face's looks so pale and her breathing is starting to weakened...
[it's all...thanks to blank]
arisha on her weakened state tell balimor everything on how she did all of those...
it all happens when blank talk about the "Saint" this world doesn't know anything about Saints...but blank explained to arisha about what is a saint....arisha was so shocked about this knowledge that blank knows
[and when i ask him...how did he know about this...kind of things...he said...."i just knew it from the merchant that come here the other day"...he's lying...but...i dont what's secrete he's trying to hide...]
[dont think too much about it now...im sure blank doesn't want to lie about that...and im sure no matter what secrete he have, he's still our son...]
[but still...blank is really amazing right?]
[yeah im proud of him...no...im sure the four of us is so proud of him...]
[yeah....]
[i hope for blank to live, peacefully on his own...]
[balimor....i...still want to live...]
balimor heared what arisha said...but he dont know what to say...even him...
[me too...]
Balimor hugs arisha tightly who's lying on the ground and balimor who's kneeling, and started to cry...
[arisha....]
arisha touches balimor's cheeks and smiled at him....
[i still want to live....with the three of us...balimor.....]
arisha who's crying and look so pale like a dead person, her hands that's on balimors cheeks...and balimor keep hugging her who's weakening now as well and both of their body is getting covered with something like a poison on their veins....
[balimor....i...love...the...both...of...you....]
the last things balimor heared from arisha...till her last breath....and arisha slowly close her eyes....and balimor keep hugging her cold body....and smiled
just later then as well...balimor close his eyes...and never woke up anymore....
and that's the last moments of the two of them...
