  After a full thirty seconds of slashing against Lusìvar’s sword, Valverno plunged Lusìvar back into his throne to have a seat and the demigod to rise into the air. Both enemies looked at each other with a hateful glare.

  “So, you have regained your full power and all the memories, and as well as seeing memories of other peoples.”

  “Damn right I did. And I have the memories of when the world was created and the truth of what happened to you, when I choice to destroy the Titans myself, not under the orders of Origenes but a truth told from the Devil King.”

  Valverno dashed down to the throne and sparked a blue lightning from his mouth, shooting it at Lusìvar sitting on his throne. Lusìvar stood up and blocked the attack with his red sword.

  Of this flashing attack, Valverno crashed into Lusìvar and hurled him through his throne, smashing through it and flew a long range before plunging Lusìvar to the ground. The demigod resumed his attack with his Crystal Sword clouding with a weak, misty, blue flame gloating like a fading cloud.

  Lusìvar struck back with his red sword sparking with a giant flame. He saw the small demigod’s strength and speed has grown to the same level as Lusìvar’s power level. After he swung his blade from opposite diagonal-downward angles, Lusìvar raised his right hand and a yellow, electric sphere was charged.

  Valverno flew backward into the air and away from Lusìvar slashing his power surge into the ground, causing a large quake of electric surges underground and opening up gaps from the earth’s crevice. The demigod was missed by Lusìvar’s attack that would have electrocuted the hybrid to death.

  Then Lusìvar raised his body where he lunged his hand and soared into the sky. His body shot off while leaving behind a shockwave of a hot wind that blown against Valverno’s face.

  Valverno shot after the Demon Prince into the dark clouds. The clouds thundered with bloodred lightning and tormented the sky with human screams of agony and grieve. Faces of the dead imaged through the vastness of the clouds Valverno flew into. He heard screams shrieking and calling out his name, but he swept away any voice calling out his name.

  Voices of the damned Lusìvar is trying to get me with, thought Valverno.

  The demigod flew through the clouds until he came to a wide opening big like an underground cavern and saw Lusìvar soaring through the center. Even without wings, Lusìvar had the power to soar, even without the use of a chariot of the black Pegasi.

  “Your power has grown, I see. Even after I took the magic from the first two artifacts, the third one gave you its power and somehow restored of the power of the other two. And I thought magic is supposed to be a mortal weapon.”

  “Those artifacts were made by my mother’s angelic body, before she made a mortal body,” stated Valverno. “Her power runs through those artifacts and bestowed onto me. And just her power flowing through me, but as well as the power of Light and Shadow from both Pools I’ve drank and bathed in.”

  Valverno’s dragon wings grew brighter and light stretched behind him, but the light didn’t stretch behind Lusìvar. A clear, blue crystal sky and the sun flickered behind Valverno, while behind Lusìvar was a vast black ray of clouds covered the blue sky with only darkness.

  “So, all powers combined, I have power from my Angel Warrior mother, one from a god, and two-in-one from the Moral Realm: Light and Shadow. You, on the other hand, have only the power of Shadow, a power I also share and can cast out. But you also have the Demon power I used to have bestowed upon by my creator-father: the Devil King. The Devil King that takes the form of a Dragon and decided to love my mother and both had me somewhere outside the Mortal Realm, which is why I am a human dragon hybrid.

  “After all, my father was the one who created the Pool of Shadows. He planned of it being used for all mortals too stupid enough to want false power. He told me of how small-brained the Titans were and said they should be extinguished. I disagreed with his view of the Titans, but I did end up despising them over time. I saw the Titans didn’t know how to count, and they didn’t know how take a single step with two legs and crawl on their bellies.

  “So, I ended up choosing for kill them all in a fun way. I lied to them they could become gods if they only bathed in the Pool of Shadows. Without question, they did. Every single Titan went in and came back out as an evil dementing Titan. They had corrupt power and vile personalities but still retained small brains that made them less intelligent like newborn infant. In the end, they never had the intelligence of which had more power but fought each other just seconds after they came out of the Pool of Shadows.

  “And there and then, I destroyed them all. I created a large whirlpool that sank their land and flooded the survivors underwater in a large cage. The end of the First Generation of Living Life. Then, in doing so, my mother scouted me out and morphed me into a mortal infant and killed the Devil King and made herself a mortal body, thus prohibited us from using our celestial power.”

  “And I watched it all,” said Lusìvar getting back to his feet. “Your power, which destroyed a land a thousand times bigger than Pangaea, had ‘awakened’ a great shadow within me. I saw how tremendous your power was and wanted some for myself. The Titans bathed, but I bathed and drank from the Pool and Shadows. I turned into what I am. Then I was visited by the Devil King to make me the new Demon Prince, but I would have to kill you first to get the title and your demonic power.

  “So, first I decided to wait until primitives took their first steps and walk about the land of Pangaea. I quickly captured them all and placed them in heavy chains and made them walk about. But, before I could set out to find you, I ended up seeing the Dagon God, and he had me banished to the Pool of Shadows, where my body was unable to move but my Spirit did.

  “When I did manage to escape, I saw Pangaea had evolved to over ten billion lives and you and your family living a paradise. This had angered me, as I never want a Paradise of Light to inhabit the Mortal Realm, and I destroyed it all in my ghost form. I destroyed Pangaea, the same way you destroyed my home. But I experimented with my ghostly power and saw it was weaker than my mortal power.

  “When I destroyed Pangaea, I saw your mother trying to save so many lives. Before she could, I scouted her out and killed her horribly and laughed as she save only her children but couldn’t save herself. She had the power to ultimately kill me, but she chose wrong. And I should have known her husband ended up saving more lives than she did.”

  “And good thing she did save me,” said Valverno. “She gave her life to save me. She knew I had more power than she did, and I had the chance to fight you. She knew she could have, but she already killed one life; she couldn’t are to stand to take another. So, what you have done to her, to Marina, to all morals of this Realm is what you’ll get: your eternal oblivion!”

  Valverno flew again and swung powerful, energy-surging strikes toward Lusìvar. The surging strikes were of an X-shape, and Lusìvar casted out his own X-shape strikes from his red sword toward Valverno’s strikes.

  Each of their magical strikes collided like a hand smashing a wall and exploded with many flashing lights glittered on impact.

  Valverno dodged each powering exploding light and trailed to the Demon Prince. He held out the Crystal Sword with his right hand and gleamed out a fireball from his left hand, holding close to his neck. He opened his mouth, inhaling a ton of gushing wind. He stopped his inhaling when a ball of a black light circled at the tip of his teeth. He raised his left hand and shot the fireball, and he spat the little black ball from his mouth to strike Lusìvar.

  Lusìvar swung his sword twice from two different angles and struck both colored balls like poking little bubbles. Then, two seconds after, his sword struck Valverno’s sword, which suddenly created a strong, mighty vibrated wind and sent Lusìvar flying backward to the dark clouds behind him.

  Valverno’s two balls were made of his Light and Shadow power that caused to be absorb
ed into Lusìvar’s demonic sword. And the Crystal Sword, which carried Valverno’s divine power, struck Lusìvar’s demonic sword, and thus created a strong powerful vibration that caused the demonic to be greatly weakened.

  Valverno made no hesitation to speed up his attacks and kept swinging his sword at Lusìvar’s demonic sword. Lusìvar regained his body-self from flying back backward but found himself being pushed backward by Valverno’s quickness of sword strikes.

  Lusìvar kept up, but Valverno was throwing faster strikes than Lusìvar could keep up. When they first met, it was Lusìvar who had the upper hand when it came to power, but the upper hand has fallen to his opponent.

  Then Lusìvar found a quick, but thin opening and switched his sword to a low angle against Valverno’s Crystal Sword and swiped it from a diagonal angle and released a great shock jolt of crimson lightning from his hand at Valverno’s body.

  Valverno growled in pain as he felt a shocking power being released from the Demon Prince Lusìvar’s hand, and his sword was flung from his hands. The demigod felt the power surging through his skin down to his inner bone, but he quickly retaliated when he exhaled dragon fire from his mouth, in the shape of burning-lightning.

  Valverno fire-lightning-shape shocked against Lusìvar’s lightning power conjuring from his hands.

  “You have grown more powerful than I thought you did, demigod,” said Lusìvar.

  “And I thought you were to be weaker, Demon. After all, it was the gods that created the Demons and Devils, the Angels that rebelled against the gods. Only to have a spy among them: Celestreá la Mùne! She overheard everything what my father persuaded a small group of Angels to do. She attacked first and ambushed the Fallen Angels, before they tried to rebel. And in doing so, she casted away those Fallen Angels to another Realm: the Realm of Evil.

  “And to prevent them from escaping, it was created by another Realm: the Mortal Realm. However, a handful of Fallen Angels managed to make it here and not the Realm of Evil. My father, the Devil King, was one of them, and we all know what goes on from there. I destroyed the Titans and the next Generations of the Second and Third come along, and here you and I are.”

  Valverno snapped his mouth closed and flew beneath the dark clouds for a short time before reappearing with the Crystal Sword in hand. “And I’m rather glad to be half Dragon than some half Demon or half Devil.”

  “Half Dragon, huh?” hissed Lusìvar. Lusìvar stroke his chin with his rock-like skin fingers. “Wasn’t there a legend or fairy tale for kids where it was believed I fought the Crystal Dragon as a Dragon myself?”

  Valverno blinked his eyes without saying a word.

  “How about we bring that little fairy tale to reality? I’ve always wanted to fight a god, but the power of a full-god overpowered me like stepping on a little ant. But you’ll have to do, since you are now the son of a Dragon God than a Dragon Devil.

  “I still find it strange you called the Devil King your father. No matter. After all, it was he and the Angel Warrior that created you in the first place. If it weren’t for them, you wouldn’t have existed and the Titans would still prowl the Mortal Realm. Now, let a battle of Dragons begin.”

  Lusìvar tossed his sword into the dark clouds behind him and stretched out his arms. Yellow and red lines shot from black clouds behind Lusìvar after he tossed his demonic sword, and his body grew to a massive size: two massive black wings, two legs, a long neck with a large head and two red eyes; Lusìvar turned himself into a black dragon.

  “Two can play at that game!” Valverno shouted. He held the Crystal Sword with both hands and held the blade close to his nose. He gave a loud draconic cry that felt the shattering of the Crystal Sword.

  Then his body glowed brightly and a big bubbly light shallowed up his body. After ten seconds, the light faded and a crystal ball was shown to Lusìvar’s eyes in his dragon form. A pair of wings, four legs, a tail, four legs, a long neck with a large snout and a head looking like the head of the Dragon King’s head had moved; Valverno turned himself into a crystalized dragon.

  Now, the magic battle was switch around; it was now a battle of mighty dragons!

  DEMON VS DEMIGOD:

  ROUND II

  Dragon Valverno and Dragon Lusìvar growled loudly as they saw each other in dragon forms. One sparked like the light of the sun, and one sheered in darkness like a starless, moonless night. Their massive bodies were five times bigger than a normal sized Dragon.

  Both Dragons charged at the same time and grabbed onto the other opponent’s body. They bit and stabbed and clawed in a battle with claws and teeth.

  Valverno’s white-blue crystal scales sparked with a blue lightning and navy flame from every time Lusìvar jabbed with a massive claw from his wing or a bite from the teeth. And Lusìvar suffered the same injuries from Valverno, but Valverno had four legs compared to Lusìvar’s two only legs.

  After a short brute fight, the dragonized Lusìvar used his back hind legs to push the dragon Valverno away. Then the spikes that run along his long back, neck-to-tail, that lit and brightened like a straight line of candles tied to a long string. An energy surge rose through the black dragon’s spikes and the mouth opened, a large red-lightening, plasma energy beam fired.

  Valverno was quickly to do the same with a blue-lightening, plasma energy beam firing form his mouth, from charging energy from the spikes that ran along his crystal back.

  Both power beams struck dead center upon impact and sent out a strong surge of windy waves across the sky like a waving tornado colliding with a hurricane’s stormy rains. A desert heat wind shifted the clouds in the sky to a spiraling wind gushing between the two dragons and their powers firing at each other.

  The lightness of Valverno’s scales and the darkness of Lusìvar’s scales rotated different against the high winds blowing. Light and Shadow fighting through one element: a fire-power spitting from two different mouths. The clear blue sky that Valverno shined and the dark clouds that Lusìvar stirred circulated around the two dragons in a thundering storm creating giant drops of a wet rain.

  Then, the power of Light and Shadow flickering inside Valverno was added to his beam; half of his scales turned black with red-pulse lightning, and his white-blue beam was added red lightning. His power beam slowly crept against Lusìvar’s beam and headed toward the evil dragon’s mouth.

  And the power shot past Lusìvar and shot beyond his head; the black dragon fell from the air and floated downwind and disappeared into the darkness.

  Valverno leaped down and flew after toward Lusìvar’s dragon body and used his legs to push the black dragon at a much faster rate. Lusìvar used his back legs, his wings, his teeth, and his tail to stab, sting, and bite against Valverno vital parts felt the most vulnerable and detach the glowing dragon from himself.

  Valverno withstood the physical pain of stabs, bites, and stings as those felt nothing compared to losing Marina in his arms, Shimabellia’s destruction before his eyes, and a civilization sinking into the ground.

  Valverno felt those more hurtful than a bug bite, a bee sting, and a knife stab. He only growled in a great distinguish expression of anger at the one Demon Prince that destroyed everything, like testing experimentations on living species. And Valverno pushed away the black dragon and snapped his wings together, generating a windy pulse that sent Lusìvar’s dragon body down to the ground like a comet falling from the sky.

  Then Valverno landed on a mountaintop to overlook the battlefield nearby and roared across the plain. Many eyes of both sides, both good and evil, saw the glowing dragon standing up the mountain ridge. His eyes looked at the group of White Knights holding against the Shadow Men, and his ears sharpened to them.

  “It can’t be… the Crystal Dragon?” gasped Sora, looking at the dragon while holding down a Shadow Man.

  “That’s no Crystal Dragon; it’s Valverno!” said Flavius.

 
But, before Valverno could say anything, he felt his draconic body suddenly be shoved away from the battlefield by a terrifying force propelling him back. Lusìvar just came quickly as quickly he was shoved to the ground.

  Lusìvar used the neck of his body to hurl Valverno away in tremendous amount of strength. Valverno used his front legs to push Lusìvar’s head back while trying to stand on the mountaintop but ended up slipping over a ruff edge and slid upon the mountainside. Valverno used his wings to soar back into the air but was casted more downwind by Lusìvar’s quick propelling force.

  Lusìvar plunged Valverno to the ground with such massive force it forced Valverno to blow a sacred white flame from his mouth and gush it against Lusìvar’s eyes, barely blinding the black dragon’s eyes. It had such a strong push it made the black dragon get off of Valverno, who rolled back to his feet.

  During his short time of fire breathing, a whip of Lusìvar’s tail struck both of Valverno’s eyes, such caused Valverno to breathe his fire away and spread a mysterious red flame around their surroundings.

  Valverno’s eyes went blind for one quick second, which was just enough time for the draconic Lusìvar to take a quick swipe of a wing at Valverno’s head. Valverno felt the scratch scraping his right eye and quickly with another swipe of the black dragon’s tail. After he felt another whip, Valverno swirled his body and used his crystal-scaled tail to whip Lusìvar to crash into the wall of the mountain.

  Lusìvar was whipped quickly, and his body was slammed to the side of the mountain. Valverno pressed his front legs on his enemy’s head and flew Lusìvar’s dragon body upwards on the mountainside.

  Lusìvar’s struggled to break free as all his limps were subdued by his opponent that glowed its scales bright if the sun was eaten by the dragon he sees before him. However, he swirled his head from Valverno’s grip pounding Lusìvar’s head into the rock and swirled his teeth to bite one of Valverno’s forepaws.
