"Used the Skills we stole…" said Apocalypse a little exasperated that his chosen wielder was so slow in the uptake.Rahz was stupefied for a couple of seconds as he saw 3 mini embodiments and a Dark Corruption liquid coming his way but the reminder from his weapon snap him out of the funk.
Was Rahz slow on the uptake?.... Probably not but the fact that he had never used them before play a very important role as he actually forgot that they were there.
HOLY SHIELD
An Impenetrable shield encase Rahz in holy power that nullified all attacks coming to him for 5 seconds and it was plenty of time to slash the minions and before the embodiment of hate could react, another of the skills came out and burn its body.
SUN CLEAVE
It was the second skill that Apocalypse stole from the Sword of Justice and it was glorious, scorching heat came out in a cone from the Axe Blade that melted not only the Embodiment of Hate but it also melted half of the Axe that was created by Jazz in Shinjuku.
Rahz stood in place observing the scene in front of him and saw that the Embodiment was melting and regenerating in real time while drawing Hatred from himself in order to get stronger.
"Let it Go Kid… Moriarty is already dead and even her mother found some type of closure with the dead of Mycroft, Why continue the cycle"
Rahz knew he should stop the nonsense but his hatred had been transferred to Omega that had the same disposition towards other believers as Ross. They were fanatics that had a miss conception of their G.o.d mandates or were they really the true followers of Odos.
The struggle of the Embodiment was commendable but if the Flames of the sun couldn"t destroy it then it was time to use Apocalypse.
SCREECH!!!
Apocalypse screech in happiness, it was the first time being in his weapon form and his weight alone made Rahz activate all his Chaos Burst Runes in order to swing it with both hands.
BOOM!!
The walls of the cave shook from the Energy generated, but not before the Embodiment disintegrated in the middle of the Pulverizing Wave generated by the swing.
The Illusion banished and the Celestial Beast wanted to stop the test and scream at the top of his lungs "b.a.s.t.a.r.d … YOU CHEATED".
The problem was that there were no rules stipulating that the realm weapon could not be used and now that it was out it kind of made any fighting test useless.
"Congratulations in pa.s.sing the first test", "even if it was thanks to your weapon" said Xiao mumbling.
"The final scenario will test your ability to restrain yourself when face with situations in which you hold the lives of weaker people in your hands under the influence of extreme anger. The test is not asking you to be a saint but indiscriminate killing even in the name of good is nothing more than violence, show me that you will not be a murderer!!"
"I am ready!"
Xiao Bai"s eyes glowed with energy and a small shake ball encased in a mystical mist appeared in Rahz"s hand.
"Go ahead and give it a shake, whether you pa.s.s or fail this test, I can guarantee that you will learn something from it…"
Rahz turned the shake ball upside down really quick and then looked at the scene inside of it.
At the beginning it was really blurry but little by little the image started to become clearer and clearer and when he was able to see what was happening, he saw a tiny version of himself inside.
WOOOSH!
Rahz was sucked inside the shake ball like he was made out of liquid and when he opened his eyes he was standing with some weird clothes and was defending an old chinese temple that was being attacked by another faction.
"General!! General!!"
A guy in a Myrthil Wire Ring Armor called out to him in desperation but he was still a little fuzzy about the whole incident and couldn"t help but look around in confusion.
"General are you OK?"
Rahz turned to look at the person and behind all that armor was the face of Jazz.
"Jazz what is happening" Said Rahz to the little dwarf calling out to him.
"General, My name is Kǒng Qiū and I was a.s.signed to you by the emperor to rely your instructions to our soldiers. We are getting overrun and even lady Fu Hao has been injured, if you don"t do something quick we are all going to die"
It had been a while since Rahz had seeing a war like the one happening in front of his eyes at the moment. It was clear that Fu Hao who was being healed in the building behind him was the exact replica of Elune and Ridd.i.c.k was outside fighting against wave after wave of a.s.sailants.
Sigh…
The situation was serious, two thirds of his forces were either dead or unable to fight and the defenses were already breached by people that wore the emblem of the G.o.d of Justice on their armors.
"KILLED THEM ALL!!! PUNISH THIS SINNERS IN THE NAME OF THE ONE TRUE EMPEROR LORD ODOS"
There was a very familiar face given orders to the enemy side and Rahz knew that face too well, "Man, I see that f.u.c.ker even in my dreams" thought Rahz.
It was the golden boy of the church encased in a very expensive armor but his weapon was a huge Halbert that he held with one hand while riding on top of a Lion.
OMEGA!!!!
"Kǒng Qiū bring me my mount and my weapon"
A giant White Tiger arrived to his side and a double headed Warglaive was brought over by the Jazz looking fellow. The situation was dire and no matter how much he tried to come up with a solution, time and time again he arrived to the conclusion that the only way out was to kill Omega to break the morale of the enemy forces.
Rahz mounted up and rush towards the enemy general very swiftly thanks to the White Tiger"s agility and as he move through the crowd he was chopping heads and leaving corpses.
Omega didn"t shy away from the challenge and very soon a road was open by his subordinates and he moved in a straight line looking for a head on collision against Rahz.
RAWR
Both mounts roar and accelerated even more while the soldiers couldn"t help but turned to look at their leaders that jump from their mounts and exchange blows in mid air and the two felines swipe at each other before rolling on the ground.
Cling.. Cling…
The sounds of the weapons reverberated in the air and both combatants seemed to be fairly even in strength, this in turned became something even more tragic for Rahz"s side because he needed to end the fight as quickly as possible.
The stalemate went on for 10 straight minutes before the event that change the fight took place, the sky turned dark and a Taoist Talisman paper flew up into the air with incandescent light and headed straight for Rahz forehead.
Slap!
The Taoist Talisman hit its mark and the light went inside Rahz"s body causing all of his attributes to skyrocket but as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Fu Hao coughing copious amounts of blood and then dropping to the ground.
NOOOOO!
She had sacrifice her life in exchange for the activation of the invincible talisman that would triple the power of the person closest to the caster.
Rahz felt even more overwhelming power as his anger creeped up from deep within his soul producing a change to half of his body. Rahz size increased and the side that held the warglaive started to expand and change into a being similar to the Embodiment of Hate but this time the skin of the creature had a bright red color.
It was no surprise that with the new power and the transformation, Omega couldn"t stop even one blow let alone the 26 cuts that he received. As their leader felt to the floor in pieces many of the soldiers were scared out of their wits and when Rahz turned his attention to them and started a slaughter, many of them threw down their weapons and knelt while asking for mercy.
The slaughter continued until each and everyone of the ones that did not surrender was dead and as the blood of his enemies drown his feet, Rahz held his weapon tight and looked around unsure on how to proceed.
