The flower spun wildly and gathered up more snow. A large appearance of castle walls formed from the dense snow cloud, caging the huge thing in its icy fort.i.tude. All serpents trapped within were easily frozen, leaving Tiamat vulnerable. Her howls kept the ice away from its body but there was no telling how long it could last.
"d.a.m.n, I"d better focus all on Tiamat," said Raiyen, closing some of the portals, including Z"s.
Z shot out an arm, in the direction of the red Kunai. The red Kunai glowed as the Achilllea flowers popped out from the Kunai and shot towards Tiamat"s form.
"Barrage!" called out Z as the flowers rained down on Tiamat"s body, causing explosions all around.
Along with stardust gathered in the flowers, Tiamat screamed in pain as it tried to swat away the flowers. The more they scattered, the more explosions it caused.
"Alleviate!" shouted Z, with slight hesitation.
As the green Kunai lit up, the Eglantine roses on it rushed around Tiamat"s wounds and healed them up.
"Hah! What was your best buddy thinking?!" laughed Benjamin as he witnessed the scene outside.
"Healing an enemy? He might as well invite her for tea!"
Baldwin held his staff tightly and aimed it at the laughing Corrupted being.
"As I said, you should pay attention to the enemy in front of you. One step at the time, I"ll say," said Baldwin, smiling.
"After all, you have no clue about the person standing right in front of you."
"We are the same, in terms of Elemental Energy."
"Not true. I hold more than the Dark Element," smiled Baldwin, cracking his knuckles.
With his Ancient Relic in the first half of activation, its whip was then divided into smaller pieces. These pieces rushed to the back of Baldwin, hovering slightly in the air. As the ropes straightened out, Baldwin gestured his spell to decimate Benjamin.
"Oblivion of Spears!" yelled Baldwin, sending a tsunami"s worth of spears to Benjamin.
Being the Valkyrie he was, he simply extended his ebony wings. Similar to Mavislin"s just with different colors. But the wings that he held were small compared to his sister"s. For the record, it was dropping quite a few black feathers all around.
"Abyss Of the Horizon: Chaos Reign!" shouted Benjamin as the feathers turned into mini bombs all around.
"Black Wave Hibiscus!" summoned Mavislin, with what she had in reserve.
The giant flower appeared as Mavislin shot out her arm, the same one used for the Fire Storm Lance. As the petals started to crack, her arm started to waver as old wounds reopened.
"I thought you didn"t have wings?!" asked Baldwin.
"All Valkyries have them. I"m still one, you know," shrugged Benjamin as he threw more spells at Baldwin.
"Sorry if it wasn"t as grand as my twin"s wings. After all, she"s got the Empress Wings. I only possess the rank of mere Peasant," said Benjamin, flapping his wings.
"Hmph," said the Angry Man, as he stabbed the staff onto the ground once more.
"Mav!"
Mavislin extended her wings and flew out of the building. Yet, she only had enough for a few seconds before plummeting onto the ground below. But a familiar blue light-tinted boy rushed over and scooped the Valkyrie just before she could touch the ground.
"Yo, need a prince?" asked Raiyen, with a giant smirk.
"I"ll have a little one please," replied Mavislin, with her cheeky grin showing.
a.s.s the two rested their gaze on Tiamat, Mavislin"s eyes widened. Each time the monster"s wounds had healed, another wound would come to replace it.
"Now that"s s.a.d.i.s.tic. Never thought he would pull off such a thing. Even if I"m older than the Time Frame now, this is still quite extreme. Operation Nemesis was far better off in this scenario. It was devastating but it was better than this," replied Raiyen, looking away in disgust.
"I"ll call that heartless," said Mavislin, shaking her head.
As the duo got to higher ground, the rest of the Five Kings regrouped with them. With Vernice visibly horrified.
"You Mages are another thing entirely! It ain"t human!" complained Vernice, hiding behind Gab.
Raiyen carefully placed the Valkyrie back onto her feet and shot a questioning glance at the d.u.c.h.ess.
"I hope I"m not part of those "Mages"," said Raiyen.
"Of course you are! Which human can ever pull that off?!"
"But I"m human..." pouted the poor Time Boy.
Mavislin hugged the little prince and patted the d.u.c.h.ess"s head. After trying to calm her down, they looked at the entire battlefield. With the three giant Kunais shining, it was ready to be activated.
But Z"s Ancient Relic was not the only Relic that has been mobilized. As both the Angry Man and Benjamin gradually got serious, Baldwin was just about to pop.
