Herald. "..Wait a minute!!You can"t be.."
Azazel. "Yes I am Azazel.
I am not interested in any further conversation beside telling you one thing so listen well!"
Herald does not understand one bit the reason why Azazel would contact him. But he sure wants to know what he has to say.
Herald. "...What is it?"
Azazel. "I heard that my little kid is being very hostile to you and as an appology.
I"ll show you how to defeat him."
Herald confusingly asks. "...What do you mean??"
In these moments, The two masters and Mammon are back again engaging in the battle. Heracles" flames are everywhere, and Alkeyder is pulling other type of seals and magic that doesn"t seem to have the strong effect the ring of Solomon had moments ago.
Mammon doesn"t give them any breaks this time and attacks with new techniques.
He summons thousand of blades from the sky down to the ground.
Heracles and Alkeyder deflects one after another...but there are so many! Some blades injure their hands and arms, Alkeyder"s handsome face also got scratched!!
Mammon doesn"t stop just here.
At the same time he summons just as much from the underground!!!
This sudden attack injures both Heracles and Alkeyder as they did not intic.i.p.ate it. their feet and legs are all scratched and cut before they can react and protect themselves.
The battle was taking a fast pace that the two masters didn"t think of Herald and how he"s doing.
Ironically enough! Herald is doing much better..
The blades do not even get near him at this point, not because of the seal and the fire-bubble Heracles and Alkeyder put arround him.
Herald seemed to find out about something...
Herald. "...I still can"t believe that Azazel himself is giving me help. But i"ll take it regardless.
I"ll find out why you did so later on..."
Azazel. "Don"t a.s.sume things, at this point you don"t know 1/777 of what i know.
Do not tell anyone about me. That is for your own good and i mean it."
Herald. "Don"t worry."
Azazel"s presence fades away quickly.
Herald. "Alright now. Stupid me for not realising it earlier though...
In theory it sounds easy, but i know it won"t be."
Meanwhile, Mammon is bringing thunder down on the battlefield, literally.
Alkeyder and Heracles are doing their best to dodge them but it is very hard to outpace light.
And so..
Alkeyder gets. .h.i.t!!!
Heracles shouts out loudly as he"s trying to dodge the thunder. "ALKEYDER!!"
Suddenly,
The thunder hitting Alkeyder disappears!!
Mammon looks shocked at first. but sends again another one directly towards him, Alkeyder cannot dodge it again being hit directly moments ago, he"s heavily exhausted.
As soon as it was about to hit him..
It again disintegrates!!
Mammon is suspicious of this.
"..What kind of trick you pulled again Alkeyder!
Don"t you run out of them?"
Alkeyder retreats and lands on the ground.
Heavily breathing he says. "..I actually did run out of them...
But, another one has just...got into his bag of tricks."
Mammon stays silent, he stops the thunder as well and Heracles finally can catch a breath!
Herald walks towards the middle of the battlefield, very cooly and calmly.
Heracles notices and screams at him. "HEY KID! What are you doing??
Retreat immediatly!!"
Alkeyder. "..It"s alright Heracles, this battle is over"
Heracles looks at Alkeyder"s smily face...
And slowly, regains his composed facial expression, crosses his hands and jumps next to Alkeyder.
He"s no more engaged in the battle. "You"re sure?"
Alkeyder. "Yes i am."
Mammon looks at Herald as he"s approaching him step by step.
"Hmmm..A sudden turn of events isn"t it?
Can it be that...you have figured it out?"
Herald smiles. "Well, kind of.."
Mammon. "Let"s have a little test then!"
Mammon throws viciously his Polearm right towards Herald, with enough speed to remove bricks from their places!!
Herald reacts like any human would do, he got scared and immediatly reacted by closing his eyes and covering his face with his hands.
However, he also immediatly thought of something else.
The polearm disappears just like the thunder did moments ago...
Alkeyder smiles as he looks towards Heracles.
Mammon. "Must have felt nice, right?"
Herald. "Yes it did!
Must have felt bad for you though."
Mammon. "...I didn"t know you"ll figure it out this quickly, in any normal case.
You wouldn"t!
I suspect something, i felt a weird..familiar feeling when...
Anyways!
It is what it is. Not that i didn"t get anything from this battle."
Herald. "Good for you and...
Goodbye!!"
Mammon stands there calmly, with his wings stretched as far as possible. Looking at Alkeyder and Heracles with a smile on his face. As his image slowly fades away into oblivion.
Herald looks back at them as well.
Alkeyder. "Well done, young man!"
Herald smiles, then again falls unconscious...As Alkeyder and Heracles hurry up to his aid.
