Gate Guardian - Song Of The Frozen Soul

We"re now in Yami.

In this dimension, the counterpart of the hotel room is a wide rocky field. The soil is dry, the sky is red, and the full moon is crimson as usual.

"Rrooooaaaaaahhh!!!"

We can hear a monster"s loud growl from a distance.

"D-Dad!" Eliseo cried as he rushed away. He deployed his bladed boots and skated towards the sound of the noise. I was about to call our friend"s name, but he already left with extreme speed.

The boulders around here are bigger than trucks, so there"s a lot blocking our view. We had to climb up to those rocks to see where Eliseo went.

"There!" Rikkun shouted as he pointed towards the north, about a hundred meters away from us.

The Eidolon can easily be seen from this view. It"s the five-meter humanoid creature with the skull mask and horns like those of a ram. It has two bat wings on its back and has a tail that looks like an arrow. It"s a Level 3 Eidolon.

A few feet away from that monster, is the bald general in distress.

"Die!" He grabbed his pistol and shot the Eidolon"s head three times, but the skull mask just absorbed the bullets like stones in a quicksand. Normal weapons won"t work against Eidolons after all.

"What the-"

"Rrroaaaaaah!!!" The demon swept his hands to Eliseo"s father. In the nick of time, the general managed to block the attack with his arms, but the Eidolon is so powerful that it sends him flying.

"Guh!" The general cried as he rolled on the ground.

Even if he"s now filled with fresh scratches and bruises, he still thinks that he didn"t sustain that much damage. He still has the strength to stand up.

But the moment he looks upwards, the next thing he sees is the claws of a demon, ready to smash his head into a pulp.

"!!!"

A roar of the piercing wind echoes! In a speed faster than sound, a flying tornado drill went straight to the demon"s left cheek, which resulted in him to be ejected to the air. Loud rumbling noise echoed around the field as the Eidolon crashed to a faraway boulder.

"Dad, are you okay?" Eliseo lent a hand to his father.

"...Eliseo…" His father muttered. Then he looked away.

Eliseo frowned as he realized that his father refused to take up his hand. But he decided to move on as he looked upon the enemy in front of them.

"Are you guys alright?" I asked as I finally managed to enter the scene. Rikkun and Diadem also followed up.

Eliseo wordlessly turned his back to his father and made a serious gaze upon the enemy Eidolon who is still stuck in the rock. "Tiara… I"ll leave my father for your care. Please heal him."

"Right!" I pumped my fist and then proceeded to cast to the general"s bloodied left shoulder.

The general was certainly fazed when he saw his very own son attack the horrific monster. He finally responded to his son. "E...Eliseo… So you"re a Gate Guardian too, like your mother…"

Hearing that his dad is finally talking to him, Eliseo turned around and made a charming feminine smile. "Yep~"

The general failed to utter any more word. He just had a hint of a smile of joy on his face.

"Rrrroooaaaaaaah!!!" The Eidolon roared as he finally managed to raise himself from being stuck on a rock. Strong gusts of wind echoed in the area, and dusty smokes filled up the atmosphere.

But the beautiful blonde skater remained fearless. He has this smile on his face as he grabbed attention from the boys. "Hey, Ric-Ric, Dem-dem..."

"Wait, am I Dem-dem now?" Diadem pointed to himself, asking Rikkun.

"He makes weird names to handsome boys. Get used to it." Rikkun said with a forced smile.

Eliseo ignored their whispers as he made a humble request. "As you guys know, a fragile girl like me is weak in fighting against Eidolons. So… will you help me destroy that monster who wounded my father?"

"I told you before, didn"t I?" Diadem charged his fists with flames. "I"ll help you with anything… Just no crossdressing again, please."

"Of course! You"re a lot handsome when you"re not wearing a girly dress." Eliseo made a wink, which sent Diadem to chills.

Then, Eliseo turned to Rikkun, waiting for his answer. Rikkun scratched his scalp and turned away, switching himself back to tsundere mode.

"Well, you provided me with some amusing father-and-son/daughter drama, so I"ll help." Rikkun then smiled as he materialized revolvers from his hands.

"Let"s get the party started!" Eliseo held his chest, and it glowed with pinkish light! "!!!"

Pink particles of light covered Eliseo"s whole body, and in the blink of an eye, the glowing specks of dust exploded, revealing the s.e.xual appeal and glamour of the Roman G.o.ddess of Beauty. Eliseo is now a real woman, with bountiful b.r.e.a.s.t.s and childbearing hips. Her long Rapunzel-like strawberry blonde hair swirled upon her naked body to create a red evening gown.

Meanwhile, General Fontaine was awed. He muttered something like: "It can"t be... Eliseo… You are… You are..."

"She"s beautiful, right?" I cut the general with my innocent smile. "Eliseo is beautiful in the inside and also in the outside. Even if his mind and soul are completely contradictory with his body, he still aspires to be what he really is. His thoughts and willpower made it possible for him to become a G.o.ddess of Feminine Beauty. His acceptance of his own self made him acquire the power to become gorgeous in his own way."

"Eliseo…" The general muttered. It seems that he was finally convinced thanks to my half-a.s.sed impromptu speech that I only managed to pull off by speaking out my mind.

My is done. I have repaired all the bruises, scratches, and even hidden fractures on his body. He can finally watch his son"s fight.

"Rrrooaaaaaah!!!" The Eidolon roared once again as he shoved his hands to the ground and flipped countless giant rocks to the Gate Guardians.

Rikkun effortlessly evaded that debris by predicting the point of impact. Diadem used his flaming fist to burn the flying rocks to crisps. And Eliseo/Lord Venus whipped her hair to deflect all those incoming projectiles.

Then the three jumped back to a safe distance.

"We"ll finish it with one attack!" Rikkun proclaimed as he activates his . "Diadem, use three and surround the enemy! Venus, wait for my mark!"

"Aye aye, Ric-ric~" Lord Venus saluted.

"Roger that!" Diadem said. Then he inhaled much air as he clasped his hand.

Three flames emerged in front of them, and those flames formed a perfect copy of my twin brother. Then, they rushed forward, surrounding the Eidolon as Rikkun instructed.

"Do a three-way vacuum!" Rikkun shouted.

"!!!"

All three clones unleashed a miniature black orb that sucks everything in its wake. But due to the opposite pulling forces surrounding it, the Eidolon was trapped and can no longer move its body.

But…

"Rrrroaaaaaaaah!!!" The demon roared, and the sonic waves pulsed, completely neutralizing the and the Diadem has created.

"That"s just a distraction!" Rikkun shouted as he threw a giant gla.s.s glaive. "!!!"

The ice shurikens exploded on the Eidolon"s feet, rendering it frozen and unable to move once again!

"Now!!!" Rikkun and Diadem shouted.

"Thank you guys~" The G.o.ddess of beauty made a bright smile as she channeled prana all over her body.

Lord Venus opened her hands, and her palm materialized a flaming white miniature planet copying the very same glow of the celestial body; Venus. Then, she blew it like she"s giving a lovable flying kiss to the enemy Eidolon.

"!!!"
