[Reaper's POV]
-BOOM!!!!
-BOOOM!!!!
-BOOM!!!
-BOOOM!!!!
Multiple shots of light were thrown at with a lot of effort, but I dodged them all perfectly as I smiled and laughed at her furious and mad face.
"Darling, what's the issue? Can't you forgive for a change? It wasn't that big a deal, was it?" I spoke with a bright smile as I jumped and ran across the floating islands one by one, carrying my black chained dual swords, Deaths of Duality in my hands and cutting half of her attacks and dodging the others.
"You an killing half of the Kings 100s of tis, bringing doom to the 7 Islands, almost cutting the Chains of Darkness and making feel pathetic in front of the masses? If you are asking if that crossed the line or not, then yeah, that f*ckery crossed the line a thousand tis over," she spoke as she threw more and more attacks at .
"But it's not like they all died for real, and you can easily fix most of the things with due ti," I said, throwing another smile at her as I dashed towards her.
"[Breath of the Dark Light]" she spoke as her wings turned a few shades darker and she flew towards .
"True Reaper: Second Moon," I muttered as I charged towards her, using all the energy I captured within the Deaths of Duality and then
-Clash!!!!
-BOOOOM!!!!
A couple of floating Islands broke down before crashing down into oblivion and I smiled cheerfully as I observed her ashen face who was glaring at .
"You can add these two islands to my account. Don't bla yourself for this, sweetheart." I winked at her and threw a flying kiss before stepping back and found her fury getting amplified before she cursed and then began slashing with her spear at a rapid pace.
I amplified my senses, ignored all defence and attack and focused on dodging her attacks as I kept moving back.
Then when I found her energy getting a bit lower than before, I channelled half of my mana into my reflexes, along with channelling the rest half into my swords.
Swiftly dodging her attacks, I began parrying most of them now and slowly stopped moving back before completely stopping and then, finding the correct timing, I attacked her with all my power as fast as I could.
Our weapons connected a thousand tis over and the surrounding has already been dishevelled. Everything had broken down into smithereens, but we were still fighting.
I was smiling as I looked at the ever so beautiful face of hers, who was quite calr now compared to a few days ago when we started fighting.
"Why… Why were you even here.. You were so weak… yet you survived. You got stronger, made the dead energy your own without any problem… sothing that should have killed you a long ti ago; you are using it as your most powerful weapon… just what are you?" She asked with an exhausted face, but her attacks were still coming.
"I don't know, honestly. I am different from others… Maybe I am a secret child of God or sothing? Though, with all the bullsh*t I have been through my life because of this difference, I will surely kill my pops the first ti I see him," I spoke as I returned her attacks.
"What about you, though? Who are you? A Guardian? A Goddess? An Overseer?" I asked, and she sighed before attacking more and more.
"I… it's a bit difficult to tell honestly," she spoke, and I attacked her again before speaking,"oh! Co on, you know that I can keep secrets too, don't you?"
Pissed off at my words, she shouted,"piss off!" and then continued attacking for another few minutes and then spoke,
"I am a Goddess, as the people here call . Though, honestly I don't know what exactly I am doing here. Among the people in the darkness in Netherrealm, I was born as a being of Light. Though, it didn't stop from using Dark Energy to get stronger. In fact, the more Dark Energy I absorbed, the more Light Energy I could use. Odd isn't it? Well, long story short, I ended up becoming so strong that I reached the top and then soon ascended to this form where I am watching over the whole Netherrealm by myself."
"Hmmm… what does it have to do with you not being able to harm anyone within this realm?" I was a bit confused.
This was quite a strange fact, that Theia can't touch or interfere with the beings present in Netherrealm, neither can she kill or save them. The least she can do is guide people to sowhere higher.
"I don't really know, but after a certain amount of ti, when I broke through a certain limit of power, I realised that I can't touch anyone new here. The old ones who were born before I ascended to that power, I can still touch, but others who were born later were a different story. However, I realised that too late, when almost none of the people whom I can touch were left," she spoke with a sad expression and attacked a bit slower.
I got a few chances to counterattack, but I didn't and just slowed my attacks before both of us completely stopped attacking. I had known her for about a year or two now, and most of the ti we were at each other's throat, but today… I think it was the last ti we will be seeing each other.
I wanted to make this day morable and so I did by introducing her to the rest of the world as her saviour against … People's morale was really boosted when they realised that I will be stopped now… made sad they looked at like I am a monster.
'Though after all the things I have done, I guess they should be looking at like that,' I thought with an awkward expression before turning around to find the Gate of the Netherrealm connected to Planet Vermillion.
"I am still surprised that you found this," I spoke, and she shook her head before making a wry expression as she muttered,"took an arm and a leg."
Then she turned at and spoke,"Reaper… if you co back, I will f*cking kill you."
"Love you too sweetheart, see you later," I smiled before leaving through that gate.
"I would rather die," were her last words that I heard before I left from Netherrealm.
