While they were on Diane"s back, Alice turned to Marco and asked curiously.Alice: So… What"s that?
Marco: Let"s make this easier… You have ever heard of a crimson big armor with a sword like this?
Alice: ...Are you talking about the Doom Overlord? Yes, there were stories about him that during the Great Monster War he took down every angel that was on Sentora, he appeared randomly, just like that, and then he started the slaughter.
However due to the power of darkness that he used, there were rumors that either the Dark G.o.d or Illias sealed him somewhere, well, Tamamo should know more about it, even though he killed many angels, he didn"t do anything else so he wasn"t that much recognized to the war itself.
Marco: Alright, it costed me a few of ribs and Magnus, but now I am the new Doom Overlord, and it seems that the Kurama Gate and, probably, the Chakra Gate will summon the armor.
Alice: ...Where did you find him?
Marco: In the bas.e.m.e.nt. Theoretically there should be a zombie dragon girl, but…
Alice: Ohhh… Neat. At least we were lucky you became the Doom Overlord so you could destroy the device.
Marco: Yeah, now less talks and more job, Diane, go to the Sealed Sinner"s Prison!
Diane: Kweeh!
Alice: Finally time for the last job. Once we get the data, we"ll head right back to my castle. Is there anything you have left to do before then…?
Marco: Don"t worry, I did everything I needed, we even got to buy some food at San Ilia…
[Later]
Marco and Alice were walking around the Sealed Sinner"s Prison, reaching the place in a few hours.
Marco: Just like before… "There should be Black Alice…"
In his mind, Sylph talked.
Sylph: Hey, hey, can you break the seal? So we can meet Heinrich again?
Gnome: …
Marco: "I don"t know if I can… I remember that he used four of you, right?"
Lily: Yeah, except me…
Marco: "Heh, now you don"t need to worry about it, you are here with the other spirits and me, right?"
Lily: Yeah… Thanks Marco. Still, about him, I am more clueless than you...
Salamander: He did, but the contract we had with him was weaker than ours with you. Just after he defeated Alipheese the Eighth, the contract was ended. He was going to finish his life as the Hero who saved the world… At least, that"s what we thought.
Undine: But instead, he started a new battle against the Heavens.
Salamander: And in the end, this was the result. That fool… Why didn"t he rely on us again!?
Undine: You know why, Salamander. He didn"t want to involve us in his fight against the Heavens.
Salamander: I know that! That"s why I"m p.i.s.sed! He went alone into that desperate fight!
Sylph: Heinrich fought alone… And then for five hundred years…
Gnome: …
Marco: "And now guess where you are? Heh… With his descendant, using a cursed sword made to kill holy things, and against the Heavens, a big coinci-" -Oh s.h.i.t!
Alice: What?
Marco: I forgot to use the Magic Dispersion enchantment! "System, make a copy of Magic Dispersion enchantment and put it on the Doomblade."
*Ding*
*Making a copy…*
*Paste it on the item…*
*Done.*
Marco and Alice sighed in relief, at least he won"t accidentally kill monsters in future. Then Alice curiously looked at the grave of Heinrich and touched it.
Alice: Hmm… There is indeed a powerful barrier here. I can feel it in my skin…
Marco tried to touch it, but he couldn"t feel anything, maybe his magical senses aren"t enough, if he really has one…
Alice: Well, let"s finish the job.
Then she pulled out the CDs that Tamamo prepared. Holding the CDs in her left hand, she put her right hand on the monument.
Alice: Alright, here I go… I"m starting the data transfer procedure!
The moment Alice summoned some power to start the procedure, white lightning flashed in the area. A white, holy aura descended and flowed from the monument to the CDs.
Alice: Guh… This is quite difficult even if I have my original body… It will take a while. I can"t move like this, and if it"s interrupted we"ll have to start from the beginning… You know what that means, Marco.
Marco: Yeah…
Marco put his hand on the hilt of the Doomblade to prepare to slash down immediately any attacker, he looked around after some intervals, but there was no one…
Marco: Where the f.u.c.k is the enemy…
?: Language, youngster.
Then, the s.p.a.ce in front of Marco distorted, and Black Alice came out with a smile on her face.
Marco used the Chakra Gate, which created the same lower part of his armor, but left his chest without armor, fingerless gauntlet appeared on his arms, a plate for his elbows and a bracelet with a curved thorn on his forearms, and on his neck there was another armor plate. (DOOMFire Warrior, but with a normal shirt still on)
Marco: "I"m getting too many Adventure Quest World vibes… I start miss that game, shame it lagged like p.o.r.n videos at night…"
Black Alice: Hehe. You got something new?
Marco: Eeeyup… So, you want to dance or stay there to look at me? I don"t mind either of the two.
Black Alice: Then I"ll take the opportunity…
She raised her arm and thorned tentacles came out from a magic circle and reached for Marco.
Marco: "Salamander, let"s try the new trick…"
Salamander: Hohoho!
Salamander infused the Doomblade with her fire, which took a bit darker tone, before Marco unsheathed the Doomblade and used Death"s Strike, the green thorned tentacles were cut off, while Black Alice stepped back, avoiding a flame slash almost cutting her chest.
Black Alice: I think I underestimated you… Well, unfortunately if I try to see how strong you are, I might die…
Then she looked at her side and her red eyes narrowed.
Black Alice: ...It"s not nice to peep, you know? Is there something strange about me that fascinates you so?
Countless angels start to appear, one after another, completely surrounding Marco and both the Alices.
Then, an angel with two pair of wings came forth, she had long blue hair and a halo on her head, she was wearing a simple cloth with long sleeves and long skirt.
Chamaeru: … Did you think we trusted you, former Monster Lord? You"re here to involve the disgraced Sinner in some fashion, and interfere with plans… That"s what Master Eden believes.
Black Alice: ...You"re making me feel so sad. I devoted myself to Illias. If I"m so untrustworthy, then I guess I have to hand over his disposal to you.
Chamaeru: Good. Leave him to us.
Green haired angels with a small dress and a different weapon for each started to surround Marco from all sides, the green haired angels were the Veteran Angel Soldiers, and the blue haired one looked like an Archangel.
At his left there was another angel with 4 pair of golden wings, with another one on her head, and a feathered halo over her.
And at his right there was a red haired angel with a pair of white wings and branches on her head, from her waist and below, there was an entire tree, even her hands were in the tree.
They were probably either Princ.i.p.ality or Power, well, there was only a method to find out, how many points will they give?
Black Alice: Hehe… I want to play again, so good luck. Next time, we"ll keep going until you"re exhausted…
Then she vanished with a strange smile, leaving Marco and Alice alone.
Alice: Urhg, I still need more time! Can you do something, Marco?
Marco: Pffft, they are weak.
Chamaeru: Hey!
Marco: No, seriously, I fought against the 4 heavenly knights, and won at the end without using the spirits, I fought on my 100% against a Cherub, and won, almost all of you would just die from me using this form! I don"t even know if you are here for a capture or for feeding me with points!
Marco pointed the Doomblade at them and used the Impending Doom, making the veteran angel soldiers flinch, suddenly, a soft wave of light radiated from the monument.
Marco: "Here he comes…"
Chamaeru: Is this a soul…? It can"t be… Illias" seal is breaking?
The light that came off from the monument took a human shape, forming… Luka?
Marco: "Oh, right… Everyone before me looked like Luka… Even my dad."
The soul had normal leather spectral clothes, and a scarf, he was a at Marco"s height and his hair reached the neck, and he was completely surrounded from spiritual energy.
Heinrich: ...It looks like the seal weakened. Thanks to you two, I was able to take form.
Marco: Yo, Heinrich, or should I call you Great-great-great-whatever-grandfather?
Heinrich: Just Heinrich is fine, it"s nice to meet you… Sort of? Though I know you well… Well, like you guessed, I"m Heinrich, people call me a Legendary Hero or something or another.
