"Blackie, Black Thunder Horn!" Arthurious said, as Blackie began to jump around while carrying Arthurious, his enormous black horns began to charge with electricity as they unleashed a powerful black lightning cannon from within!
CLAAAAASH!
The powerful attack hit Hectarious directly! His enormous body might be strong and big, but it was very slow and couldn't evade Blackie's super-fast attacks, literally being rained upon with powerful magic until his entire body started to be burned to a crisp once more!
"AAAGGHH…! Y-You damn… vermin! You rat! You ant!!!" Cried Hectarious. He only knew how to curse and groan, as he continued to unleash powerful tentacle attacks, while darkness quickly began to gather within his crying and monstrous eyes, suddenly firing darkness rays against Blackie!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
However, Blackie easily blocked the powerful rays with a simple barrier of darkness. As he was a powerful Dark Goat, he was already proficient with both controlling and defending against this elent of magic! The attacks from Hectarious were proving to be futile no matter how hard he was trying.
"D-Damn it…! How co you and your damn ram are so strong… How co… I… Keep losing!" Cried Hectarious, rushing towards Arthurious and jumping over him! His enormous jaws opened, showing Arthurious an enormous gaping mouth filled with sharp teeth and many tentacle-like tongues! "DIEEEE!"
"Tsk… Hectarious… forgive ." Sighed Arthurious, as Blackie suddenly gathered mana within his mouth and unleashed a storming beam of black lightning, spiraling constantly and burning the interior of Hectarious mouth into ashes.
"GRAAAAAAAHHHH… IT HURTS!" Cried Hectarious, as the powerful Blackie rcilessly continued to burn through his body, slowly yet steadily turning him into ashes.
"I am sorry, Hectarious…" Sighed Arthurious, seeing that there was no other way around it, he slain his own brother before he continued suffering.
BOOOOOMMM…!
Lightning exploded everywhere, as Arthurious thanked the gods that the people had already fully evacuated by now and there were no casualties within Hectarious range.
His entire body, burnt to a crisp, slowly turned into ashes, dissipating with the faint wind. Arthurious looked into the winds, feeling guilty and rather bad. He didn't even knew what happened, and had no idea who did this to his brother…
"Brother…"
Despite having been abused for so long, Arthurious had a kind heart, and felt regret and sadness for the sudden death of his brother, but he couldn't do anything, sothing or soone suddenly took over him… and turned him into a monster that wanted to kill him.
He had to defeat him to survive, it was the normal thing to do at the end.
"ee…" Blackie attempted to comfort Arthurious, as the young boy suddenly felt a faint presence, a phantasmal presence reaching closer to him, it whispered sothing to him…
"I'm sorry… Arthurious…"
"Eh? B-Brother? Is that you?"
Arthurious tried to look everywhere he could, but he was unable to find his brother. But sohow, his presence was here, although it was slowly fading away.
"Sothing… sothing dark is approaching… run…"
"B-Brother…?"
"Sothing took over … I was unable to do anything…"
"Ah…!"
"I… I am sorry..."
Unexpectedly, what Arthurious heard were the grieving regrets of his brother's soul as he died. His soul faded away after those words, as if Hectarious, on his last monts of clarity, regretted what he had done.
Has more people that had wronged others felt this way after dying?
And… was that his brother's soul? How could Arthurious even feel it?
"Hmmm… So you were able to see a soul. Interesting, your talents are amusing, young grandson."
Suddenly, Arthurious thoughts were interrupted by the coarse voice of an old man, which he had heard a few tis, this voice was nobody else than his grandfather…
But why was it so ominous?
"Eh? G-Grandfather?!"
Arthurious looked in front of himself as he saw a strange sight, a phantasm made out of darkness in the shape of his grandfather slowly walked towards him… Blackie began to grow restless.
"You've done well… My dear grandson. Now leave everything to your grandfather." Said the Emperor, as he walked towards Arthurious.
"Y-You're not grandfather… What sort of ghost are you?!" Roared Arthurious, as Blackie unleashed black lightning against the phantom of the Emperor!
CLAAAASH!
However, the phantom seed… completely unscathed.
"You don't have to worry…" He said while smirking, as he pointed his hand at Blackie.
"Sleep."
TRUUUMMM…!
A sudden darkness shrouded the entirety of Blackie's mind! The monster attempted to fight as much as he could, but he was unable to, instantly falling unconscious without being able to fight back.
"B-Blackie! W-What did you do to my Blackie?!" Cried Arthurious, as the Emperor's hand approached the boy. He suddenly felt incapable of moving, as if he had been frozen in place from the re gaze of the Emperor's phantom.
"Oh my, you're really a spirited child…" Said the Emperor, his hands growing closer…
Only for a humanoid figure to erge! It was Frank's clone, which had been residing within Arthurious shadows. Although it was not even half as strong as him, but rely a small percentage, this powerful clone quickly clashed against the phantasmal body of the Emperor, without the Emperor being able to evade or simply ignore the damage!
CLAAASH!
"W-What the?!" The Emperor looked in shock at the figure of Frank erge, completely made out of darkness.
"So you're a ghost of the Emperor or sothing?" He wondered.
"Y-You're the Guardian?! What are you doing here…?! (Wait! No, this is not him! It's… so sort of copy made out of magic! He's capable of making a body double?!)" The Emperor as ked, as he quickly began to think at the sa ti, realizing the true identity of the being before him.
Frank's clone didn't waste a single second, touching Blackie and helping him wake up again!
"Blackie, take Arthurious away from here!" Said Frank.
"F-Frank?! But what about Miriam?!" Asked the boy.
"She's safe! Don't worry about her, go to safety!" Said Frank, reprimanding the child.
