Chapter 72 Back to normal?

Flid looked at the dome and thought to himself. "This feeling... my daughters!

An image of a young man with golden eyes filled Flid's mind as he screamed, shaking the very air around him. "GOLDEN HANDS!!! You dare kill my daughters?!!!"

With rage filling his heart, Flid immediately decided to get revenge. As he was about to turn around and leave, a hand emerged from the rubble infront of him.

The hand grabbed him in the hair and pulled his angry face back facing towards the rubble. Flid then said with a truly terrifying expression. "Make it quick. I have something better to do."

Set, using his left hand on Flid's hair, pulled his bloodied body out of the rubble. His face and torso beaten to a pulp, making him look like a ripe apple.

A warm breath left Set's mouth as he opened it to speak. Blood then flowed down his mouth like a waterfall, making a mess on the ground he stood on.

He then tightened his left hand, grabbing a handful of Flid's hair. He glared at him with his crimson red eyes, which still has their flame. He then spoke. "I... I'm your opponent."

A vein popped in Flid's forehead as he heard Set's words. Within a blink of an eye, Flid sent a devastating punch directly into Set's gut, raising his body a few feet in the air.

Set barely managed to land on his feet as he let out another warm breath out of his mouth. He tightened his left hand, which never left Flid's hair, before saying and raising his right arm. "I'm your opponent."

As Set's right hand, which are no longer in flames, was about to reach Flid's enraged face. Flid pushed it aside and released another powerful blow into Set's body, doing the same thing like the one before.

As Set stumbled to maintain his steady footing and his grasp on Flid's hair, Flid then stated. "Let me go. I no longer have interest in you."

"This is your last warning, Set!" Flid continued.

Upon hearing Flid's warning, Set, who was breathing heavily, said in a very low voice. "I'm your opponent."

After hearing Set's reply, Flid then lashed out as he shouted. "SO BE IT!!!"

Flid then sent a multitude of Lucile-infused blows into Set's body, but unlike before, Set managed to endure and stayed on the ground.

Flid gnashed his teeth in frustration, he continued on drilling Set's body with powerful, bone-shattering blows. But Set remained standing before him while grabbing his hair, which angered Flid even more.

A punch on the gut, an uppercut to the chin, a kick to the side, and lastly a punch directly on the center of the chest, sounding like a bunch of bones just got shredded.

Even though Set's bones could clearly be heard getting fractured, Flid didn't stop. The two of them knew that there is only way to stop this fight.

Flid then sent an exceptionally powerful blow into Set's body, flinging him backwards along with Flid, who's hair is still in Set's grasp.

Set managed to land his feet onto the ground, eventually stopping his flight. But his actions did not stop Flid, who continued on beating him up right after they landed.

Set tried to counter with a right hook with his right arm filled with little pockets of flames, but Flid met his fist head on with his, completely stopping his attack.

He overpowered Set's fist, shoving it away as he continued on dealing massive blows into Set's torso and mid-section.

Then finally, Set's knees gave way, falling towards the ground with only his left hand, which is still griping into Flid's hair, preventing him from falling to the ground completely.

"Che!" Flid released a snicker as he saw Set's body give way, he stopped his assault, and grabbed Set by his left wrist.

Flid tried to pry his hand away from his hair, but was met with intense resistance. This greatly baffled, confused, and enraged Flid even more.

He then screamed, shaking the rubble around them by merely his voice. "YOU JUST DON'T GIVE UP DO YOU?!!!"

Flid then released a powerful directly into Set face, thanks to the fact his body is slumped over. The knee sent him up in the air, where Flid sent a rapid barrage of strikes directly into Set's airborne body.

As blood and sweat dripped from Set's body, his left hand finally let go of Flid's hair. But instead of taking it as his win, Flid sent a devastating uppercut directly into Set's chin, sending him flying high in the air as his blood poured down like rain.

Flid let out a deep breath, bent his knees, and jumped high above Set's airborne body. His feet coated itself with Lucile as it landed perfectly onto Set's face.

"Raaaaah!!" Flid let out his warcry as he sent Set and himself hurling towards the ground.

Upon coming smashing onto the ground with an insane amount of speed and power, not only was Set burried a few inches into the ground, the surrounding pavements and buildings crumbled due to Flid's devastating attack.

Flid, who doesn't even have a scratch on his body, took a few steps back away from Set's unmoving corpse. He saw that Set has his eyes closed and his breathing is slowing down.

Flid then said. "Disappointing." Before he turned his back from Set, and faced the golden dome behind them.

But as Flid was about to take his first step and leave, the inside of Set's mind was starting to dim, then a single sentence flowed through his mind. "Stand up!"

Then, Set's fleeting mind was engulfed in crimson flames. Soon after, Flid felt a burning sensation come from behind him.

He gritted his teeth, but before he could turn around. The flame calmed as a voice said to him. "Tu- *cough* Haah haaah...Turn around."

Flid calmly closed his eyes as he said. "You win this time." He then turned around, and faced Set, who's right fist is only a few inches away from Flid's face.

As Set's shaking body dripped from blood and sweat, Flid formed a resolute face as he lowered his arms.

Set gritted his teeth as his right arm was fully engulfed in flames. "Raaaah!!!" He drove his flaming fist directly into Flid's face as he screamed his heart out.

As Flid's body was driven into the ground, a massive pillar of flames rose from Set's fist into the massive sky up above.

After a few moments, flame dispersed. Showing Flid face, half buried into the ground, with Set, who remained in his punching position as his body emitted a large amount of steam.

Then somewhere else, within the golden dome, Chrys and the Immortals felt the light of Set's flames reach their eyes.

Chrys stared at the dispersing flames for a couple of moments before he returned his gaze on the Immortal in his graps. He looked at her with his normal sized pupils as he said with an apologetic look on his face. "One..."

He then threw the Immortal towards the rest, who caught her without issue.

He then casually waved his hands, immediately causing the golden dome surrounding them to disappear into tiny golden sparks that resembled stars in the night sky.

Upon realizing the dome was down, the Immortals with Lullu immediately went over and helped the injured Immortals. The Immortals fighting Chrys immediately made distance between them while still being cautious.

As if it was planned, a familiar looking aircraft floated right above town, gathering everyones attention. It turned it's back and opened the big door on it.

When Chrys saw this, he immediately touched the ground underneath him. And before the Immortals could react, Chrys, Celine, and Set was sent flying by a sudden earth pillar that appeared just under their feet.

Chrys landed perfectly inside the aircraft, he slid for a few moments before coming to a complete stop. And upon making sure he was steady, he looked around the inside and saw Amber, Rose, and Miya to the side, ready to help him.

He then immediately said to them. "Stay back!" Before he spread out his arms and braced himself.

A second later, Celine's body came to view, second after that, Set's. Celine landed directly into Chrys arms before she was squished, as Set slammed into them, causing all three of them to slam onto a wall.

After hearing the rather loud crash, Morgan, who was in the cockpit piloting the aircraft, immediately pressed a button, closing the back door before she flew the aircraft away.

Just as they were about to hastily leave town, she saw giant green pillar of flames just outside of town.

She gazed at it for a moment before controlling the aircraft to fly far away from town.

After a few minutes, the civilians started to leave their shelter and assess the damage done to the city.

The Immortals meanwhile, helped their own that was injured, but could only mourn the ones lost in the battle with most of their corpses unable to be buried, as they were nothing more than a bloodied mess.

Meanwhile, in one of the entrances in town. A bunch of Immortals along with Flid, who only has a slight bruise on his left cheek, looked extremely displeased as a young woman stood directly infront of them.

The woman's hair is vibrant green along with her fearless eyes. Her skin is a briliant bronze color. A cold beautiful smile is plastered on her face as she stared mockingly at the Immortals ahead of her.

"What are you doing here?! Coming for a fight?!" Many of the Immortals yelled in unison.

Flid raised his hand, immediately silencing the others with him as he continued to stare at the green-haired woman with an extremly angry expression.

The woman then opened her mouth as she said. "Judging by your faces, you all had a good time."

All the Immortals right now in the area right now are frowning, and they made it pretty sure why that is.

The green-haired woman laughed very insultingly, but none of the Immortals did anything, only glaring at her with hate-filled eyes.

The woman stopped laughing as she said. "Actually, about your question earlier, your right, I did come here for a fight."

The Immortals, without hesitation, got ready to fight and lunged at the woman, but Flid stopped them by raising his hand once more.

The Immortals reluctantly backed down, but they did not hide their Lucile, still ready to attack at any moment.

Flid took a step forward with his angry looking expression, he then asked with an extremely domineering aura. "Do you want to do it here, or want to set a date?"

The woman let out a little chuckle, before she released the same domeeniring aura as Flid as she said. "As much as I'd like to do it now, I'm gonna have to go with setting a date."

"Besides, 'they're' the ones setting this 'date' up."

Upon hearing the woman's response, Flid, who still looks extremely pissed asked. "Where and when do 'they' want it?"

The woman let out a smile as she said. "Titan, at the fall festival. Don't be late." She then turned around, intentionally letting her hair smack onto Flid's face, who didn't do anything.

After turning around, the woman just casually walked outside of town, leaving green flames wherever her bare feet walked.

After a few seconds passed, an Immortal asked. "Do we really have to do what 'they' say?"

To which Flid replied. "Yes, even if it means working with our nemesis."

Flid turned around to face the Immortals with him as he shouted in a loud, booming voice. "Gather your brothers and sisters that are able to fight! Leave the pregnant and the ones caring for them and their partners!"

"Gather them all back home before we perform our end of the deal!" Flid added.

With a swift nod, every Immortal around him immediately scattered, sharing the information to their siblings in town. While some of them left town, seeking the siblings scattered around the southern quadrant.

Flid then looked at his bloodied hands, which are clearly not his, and said in a low voice. "Don't worry, my children. It will end soon enough."
