...."Why can"t you hear my calling...
I am perpetually mourning!
Can"t seem to stop myself from falling..."
With such emotional gestures, expressed Phenex as he was in mid combat versus Kaled!
"What is this weird person...He doesn"t stop singing even when I am wounding him over and over."
His looks perfectly matched what he was doing, a poet of the romantic era!
Casual clothes, short brown hair and a face able to express all feeling to the extreme.
He kept on singing!!
"Look down...
I couldn"t drown, those long pretty eyes
Cause I have lost the right...
The right to cry!!!"
Kaled had enough of it, swinging his sword in the air, he created strong wind waves that lifted Phenex high towards the sky!!
Using his incredible speed, he meets the demon at the summet and slices his chest as deep as he could.
Blood gushed out of his wound. Phenex fell down, and it looked like there is no more singing after that.
His last words were...
"...It always comes without a warning!"
Suddenly, Kaled finds himself in a whole new different world!!!
"...Where am i??
Is this an illusion..."
Phenex answers him from way above, although he"s nowhere to be seen as the place is really dark and the smell is disgustingly unbearable!!
"No It is not, this is the deepest part of yourself Mr Kaled...You didn"t think it would be such a nasty dark place like this.
Look at ur right, do you see those jail bars!!!"
Kaled looks, then gets shocked at what lays behind them...
"Yes...Just as you see!
That is you right there, look how miserable and pathetic you"re looking...This is your reality!!!"
Kaled however does not lose his temper...
"Why are you hiding?
Are you afraid of me!?". He asks
Phenex. "Aren"t you afraid of yourself too?
I know your history... You"ve never known what is defeat that people started deitifying you!!
However...You chose the wrong oponent!
Because now, you"ll have to fight against yourself!!!"
*The jail bars opened*

But it turned out there was another version of Kaled behind them, that jumped out as soon as they were opened and clashed swords with the real one!!!
"What the...." Kaled was even more shocked this time, this one is a blood thirsty monster!!
"You"re starting to be afraid now aren"t you... Yes!! This is again the real you!!! The one that makes you undefeated, and then when you don"t need him you throw him far away as if he was uneeded!!
You hate no one else, but yourself!!!"
Phenex kept on his monologue, as Kaled barely could keep up with this psychopathic version of himself. He kept on pushing him with each swing of his sword, the power he has behind his attacks were overwhelming!!
"...I see!
It was only a matter of time for this confortation to happen...I was always aware of it, my powers were always ambigious to the elders...I couldn"t control any element, nor learn alchemy or healing techniques, yet i"d still end up defeating everyone i faced!
Maybe...No!
Surely...This monster i am facing are the real essence of my powers!"
Kaled a.n.a.lyzed the situation calmly and cooly, although he was being wounded with each swing!
Even his thick majestic sword started to crack!!!
One other swing from the berserker, and it shattered!!!!
Kaled no more has it in himself to keep on fighting...He just stood there as he looked at his reality...
"So you have decided to surrender!
I shall inform you that if you were killed here you are killed in every other world!
Your soul will disintegrate as if it has never been, not even afterlife will be there for you..."
His monsterself wasted no time, with a swing faster than the speed of sound... his head was shopped off from its body!!!
"...Such a sad thing indeed! If only has G.o.d accepted my repentance...I would"ve been now fighting by your side."
Phenex returns back to the human world, Kaled was lying dead on his face...
He approaches him, and kneels down near his head, then starts singing again....
"And I continue to kill and sin,
Not knowing when to end or how did it begin...
Yet I do not stop to beg and bleed!
Not to ever return to that bleak..."
Phenex gets back up on his feet, and looks towards the main battleground.
"...Sir Astaroth has come, I don"t think my help is ever needed again.
They"ll leave me alone now that i"ve killed one of the main generals."
Phenex gets rid of his human form, and finally reveals his real one...
Only now that one would understand, his name is a literal indication of his true nature...
A PHOENIX!
All covered in flames, extreme long firy wings, bird head with long feathers on top of it...
Just like the legends describe him to be!
He was planning to leave the sphere, until he felt a presence behind him.
"...You"re the legendary phoenix then!"
Phenex suprisingly looks back, to find Kaled standing up as new as ever!!!
"...How come you"re not dead!"
"...It doesn"t matter, but I do not wish to fight you anymore now that I know who you are."
Phenex. "Are you sympathising with me...
Ido not need such disrespect!!"
With one of his wings he throws several flame b.a.l.l.s towards the general, but the latter was able to deflect each one of them.
"...It is still not too late, staying on their side will only close every door of salvation you might possible have!!". Kaled calmly replies.
"YOU KNOW NOTHING!!!!!"
Phenex gets furious, his flames reflected the state he was in and surrounded them both in a cage made of flames!!
"One of us has to die, there is no other way arround...". The legendary creature firmly states.
Kaled. "I see... Then it shall be as you wish.
It will be an honor for my sword to be your slayer."
The undefeated, accepting his defeat when fighting his monsterself has simultaneously accepted the beast within him...Not just that, but also killing the self that refused it before!
Now, he"s the monster itself§! Reforged and tamed!!
Only now, he"ll be able to fight in his maximum potential without having to restrain himself.
The incredible power unleashed from both legendary opponents, clashed!!!!
