Chapter 128: Grudge and Rebirth

*Various power shocks are shown at high speed and with force that make the whole place rumble*

*With a big blow, they both step back showing themselves with a confident and intimidating look*

Shun: *sighs* I'm sorry to break it to you, but the game got this far, Yogen

Yogen: *Smile* Don't make me laugh. Now you make the excuse that you weren't really fighting?

Yogen: I'm sorry to break it, but even though you're the strongest man, you can't even reach my feet, you haven't been able to scratch me

Yogen: *With a serious look* I'm sorry, but you've lost

*Shun begins to laugh ironically*

Yogen: What's so funny?

Shun: That bastard...

*Yogen feels a great overwhelming power approaching the place*

Yogen: *Surprised* What the hell is this?

Yogen: *Think* That power is unlike anything I've ever known before... it's terrifying... if we continue longer... Lose...

*All members of Black Lights are shown receiving a direct signal to the brain*

*Moments before*

Eden: Damn!

*A gigantic amount of energy is expelled from Eden's body*

Puppet: Awesome, really awesome, this guy... It will be an interesting puppet

Zipacna: Takahashi!

*Zipacna darts at high speed to rescue Takahashi, but one of the threads manipulated by Puppet points directly at him. However, he manages to deflect the attack with his sword, but is forced to retreat*

Zipacna: *Think* That bastard... He won't let me get an inch close. Although it doesn't have a barrier... I can't find any way to attack

*Zipacna notices the tattoo on Puppet's neck, which Yohei notices*

Zipacna: Those guys...

Yohei: Yes... that bastard, belongs to Black Lights

Yohei: *Think* Even though he's nothing like those guys we faced that night... This guy is at the height of that wretch who presented himself as their leader, he is a damn monster...

Zipacna: Yohei, please I need your help... If we don't rescue Takahashi soon, he won't survive

Yohei: Yes, I know

*Yohei and Zipacna begin to overflow with energy*

Yohei: You have to give it your all

Zipacna: Yes!

Eden: You, you were there, weren't you?

Eden: Yes... Now I remember you, you were there that damn day

*Eden remembers the day where Iss was killed by Puppet during the battle on Nork*

Puppet: It's true... Now I remember you, you're the son of that damn bitch

*In the blink of an eye, Eden attacks Puppet with immense force, but he easily stops his attack with a barrier of threads*

Eden: Take His Name Out of Your Mouth, You Wretched One

Puppet: I remember she was very obsessed with you, she kept telling us over and over again that we should "get you back" she never stopped insisting on that, that bitch was desperate

Puppet: Unfortunately our prophet had another day, do you want to know?

*Eden throws another punch with great force that forces Puppet to retreat as his threads were broken by Eden's attack*

Eden: *With a scary look* I told you to get his name out of your filthy mouth

Puppet: *think* Magnificent... really magnificent, his strength does not stop increasing, when he gets angry his power continues to rise

*Puppet draws a disturbing smile on his face, which causes Eden to recoil due to the discomfort and terror he felt*

Puppet: Now I get it... I understand why the powerful are so interested in you, you... You are the key

*Yohei throws a powerful bolt directly at Puppet, forcing him to defend himself, a situation that Zipacna took advantage of to take Takahashi*

Zipacna: Good job Yohei!

Yohei: Yes!

Zipacna: *He thinks as he analyzes Takahashi's body* He's still breathing, but I need to take him urgently to a doctor, luckily that guy didn't get it right... The heart is intact

Puppet: *sighs* It's a shame, they took my only hostage, but... That doesn't matter

*In an instant, Yohei and Zipacna's bodies are pierced by several of Puppet's threads, causing him to suffer serious injuries and cause him to lose consciousness*

Eden: Guys!

Puppet: Well, enough of key games, it's time for you to come with us

*Puppet's body begins to expel a huge energy that is very disturbing*

Eden: *Think* Damn... Right now I'm in a big bind, if I help them now, the three of them will die...

Eden: *Think* But... I can't let it kind of escape... Maybe he knows

*The image of his grandfather Gen comes to Eden's head*

Alexbold: Move quickly!

*Eden comes out of his trance when he hears Alexbold's voice*

Eden: Alexbold!

Alexbold: Damn, how can you run so much Puppet?

Puppet: Damn, another hindrance has arrived

Eden: Alexbold, that guy...

Alexbold: What the hell are you doing here? Go fast and take those three

Eden: But, you alone will not be able to handle it

Alexbold: Hey! Didn't you say I was the hero?

*Eden is surprised to hear Alexbold's words*

Alexbold: *With a determined look* Then let me act like one

Eden: I'm sorry...

*Eden grabs the bodies of the fallen and prepares to flee*

*Puppet appears in front of Eden*

Puppet: Where do you think you're going?

*Puppet launches a large attack towards Eden, but this attack is blocked by Alexbold*

Puppet: Damn, can you stop getting in the way so much?

Alexbold: Hurry!

*Eden begins to run with the fallen in battle quickly alongside Yohei*

Alexbold: So, now it's just the two of us, Puppet

Puppet: I'm sorry to tell you, but...

*Thousands of puppets appear surrounding the place completely and perplexing Eden and Alexbold*

Puppet: This has never been a one-on-one

Puppet: Finish them off my precious puppets!

*All the puppets go straight to Eden and Yohei, but instantly everything stops when they feel an overwhelming presence*

Yogen: *Everyone* Retire!

Puppet: *Think* What?

*A very physical and powerful combat between Beast and Tiresias is shown, making the ground rumble with each blow*

*Beast lands a big punch that knocks Tiresias back*

*Beast perceives Yogen's message*

*Beast's body returns to its original form*

Beast: It's a shame, I was hoping to have more fun with you old man, however, for now it won't be possible

Beast: I hope to see you soon

*Tiresias is shown full of wounds, bruises and blood returning to his normal state*

Tiresias: *Think* What were you hiding?

*Willoc is shown in his battle against Quetzalcoatl, Aphrodite and Zef*

Willoc: It seems that my mission has come this far, I hope to see you again, your majesty

Zef: Next time, I'll stop you by myself

*A wave of water energy completely vanishes Willoc*

Quetzalcoatl: We must follow them!

Aphrodite: No

Quetzalcoatl: What did you say?

Aphrodite: Right now we are not in a position to fight

Quetzalcoatl: Stop talking stupid things, it's our chance to put an end to these wretches!

Zef: Teacher Aphrodite is right... most likely we were not the only ones who fought, I could perceive it...

Quetzalcoatl: Damn it...

*The battle between Juana, Yosa and the unknown 59* is shown

*Yosa is shown on edge, bleeding and exhausted*

Yosa: *Think* Shit... This cannot go on like this, I have only enough strength left... besides, it seems that the rest of the fights are over, I have to help Juana even if she dies in the attempt

Unknown 59: Die!

*A gigantic ball of fire energy goes straight towards Yosa*

*Yosa tries to dodge the attack, but her body reaches the limit, causing several of her bones to break, making it impossible for her to move*

Yosa: *think* shit

Eris: Space Technique: Night Mantle

*In the blink of an eye, a barrier of dark energy is created, which completely absorbs the stranger's attack*

Unknown 59: You... I could smell your smell before, but... you don't smell like them, you stink...

Yosa: *Think* A GODS student? I wasn't able to perceive her before. Was she hidden?

Unknown 59: *With a disturbing smile* Yes... You really suck

Unknown 59: I Have to Kill You

*Eris is frozen at the stranger's words*

Willoc: What do you think you're doing, Azzaun?!

Unknown 59 (Azzaun): Willoc

Willoc: We have to get out of here now

Azzaun: But...

Willoc: Now

Azzaun: Yes...

*Both vanish for an instant*

Yosa: Is it over? Seriously?

*Yosa returns to her normal state by becoming unconscious*

*A large army is shown deployed in the vicinity of the place*

Soldier 1: Is it really him? I still can't believe we're part of your fleet

Soldier 2: yes, and for you to say it... although he was grateful not to be trembling since the beginning of the mission

*All the soldiers are shown trembling before the overwhelming power of a stranger*

Soldier 1: Yes... not for nothing is he our king, his power is incomparable

Ares: Stop talking, and concentrate

Flooring 1 and 2: Yes sir!

Ares: Damn, what you need to see

Shiva: Come on, come on Ares, they are just new, have a little patience with them

Soldier 1 and 2: *They think* How kind Captain Shiva is

Shiva: *With a gloomy look* Maybe they will die soon

*The soldiers are surprised by Shiva's words*

Shiva: I'm just kidding

Shiva: I'm counting on you

Drake: *Think* I'm surprised that they have gathered so many special forces captains for this mission, plus not only that, it's also...

*An angel with a terrifying look is shown with golden hair and red eyes*

*The battlefield where Yogen and Shun are located is shown again*

*Yogen's overwhelmed face is shown, knowing that his whole plan fell apart in a single instant*

Yogen: Did you know this?

Shun: It may be... I only had faith

Shun smiles confidently and menacingly, seeing Yogen worried about the situation.

Yogen: Next time, you'll fall before me. Shun, the strongest man

Shun: I hope it's soon, Yogen

*Yogen fades in the blink of an eye*

Shun: With this... I think we can hunt it down now

*The Black Lights group is shown fleeing at high speed and Yogen with a very frustrated face*

Yogen: *Think* How is that possible? Did they already expect this attack? and not only that... it has neutralized the whole place so that we can't use space techniques and be able to flee, damn it... dammit... dammit

*A tracker is shown, while also showing a small device inside the Puppet*
