Leon, Zwein and Ritsu vs Black Rat pt.2

I then told Zwein and Ritsu my plan. They agreed to my plan, we finally started moving, intending to defeat Mister Black Rat.

Our target was the eyehole on the skull's head. Of course, the Black Rat knew that weakness. Therefore, he would definitely take good care of it. Zwein as well as Ritsu's role was to distract, so I could launch an attack through the gap.

I gathered strength in both my legs and started running at maximum speed. The giant skull that was protecting Master Black Rat wielded two weapons, namely a skull sword and a shield. Ritsu, who was already beside the Giant Skeleton immediately gathered green aura around his right hand to form a large drill. He then swung his arm vigorously.

Mister Black Rat was forced to use a shield to protect himself from the green aura drill's attack. The drill rotated rapidly, but the shield was so hard that the green aura drill didn't leave any marks. Zwein took advantage of the moment, when the Black Rat was attacked, she was turning herself into a half snake and then wrapped the Giant Skeleton's hand that holding the sword.

Master Black Rat shouted furiously, he gathered more power from the gate behind him. I couldn't let this opportunity go to waste, I immediately jumped onto the giant skull shield. I then barged into the Giant Skull through the hole in its eye. Then I took a deep breath.

"Hell fire!"

An enormous burst of fire filled the space within the Giant Skeleton. It made the temperature inside the giant skeleton was soaring so high that even I, who gave off the fire, felt the impact. I firmly believe that Master Black Rat was on fire now.

"Aaah!" Master Black Rat's scream echoed and pierced my senses of hearing. In a state of fire, he immediately removed the Giant Skeleton that was protecting him. The skull confines the heat, so that the heat that Black Rat suffer did not decrease.

After the Giant Skeleton disappeared, the three of us immediately surrounded Lord Black Rat. Now, he was rolling around with all parts of his body charred. Moments later, he stopped moving.

"Is he dead?" asked Ritsu curiously.

"Be careful," said Zwein.

At that moment, the gate again sent a black light towards Mr. Black Rat's body. Black light enveloped his body. I had a bad feeling."N-no way!"

"How could this happen?"

"Damn it!"

The three of us looked in disbelief at Mister Black Rat, who was returning to health at an unreasonable pace. His scorched skin returned to its original state, all the scars on his body also disappeared. Zwein moved quickly, she tried to stab Black Rat in the chest with her left hand.

Mister Rat held Zwein's left hand, he slowly raised his pale face. He smirked as he looked at the three of us. Before Zwein could react, Mister Black Rat slammed his foot against Zwein's stomach. Not stopping there, he also grabbed Zwein's body and threw her in the air. Master Black Rat's hand gathered a black aura. The black aura formed a short sword. He then stabbed the sword into Zwein's chest.

"Cough!" Zwein vomited blood. Master Black Rat dropped Zwein, then looked at me and Ritsu. Ritsu looks like he can't hold himself anymore, he immediately attacked Master Black Rat. I also intend to attack him. However, Master Black Rat unexpectedly moved very quickly. He grabbed Ritsu's neck and slammed him to the ground. Without hesitation, Mister Black Rat crushed Ritsu's head.

I lunged at him while aiming my feet, which were now covered in flames. Master Black Rat dodged my attack. I immediately crouched down to see Ritsu's condition.

"Ritsu! Are you still alive?" my heart froze when I realized that even with his regeneration, Ritsu still couldn't survive.

"Cough! Leon, run. You can't beat him. S-save yourself. The fate of the half beasts is in your hands."

I approached Zwein and looked at the wounds on her body. "Don't move Zwein! I will definitely save you."

"Stupid, I can't hold on any longer, go now." In a low voice, Zwein scolded me.

Damn it! Even though the two of them were not good people, but it still hurts to see Zwein and also Ritsu die. Compared of the two of them, Master Black Rat was the most sinful. He's the one who turned everyone into this. People like him must be killed. But I realized it was very difficult for me to beat him. I have to run away.

Almost all half beast here were dead. Their corpses were brought into the gate and turned into monsters under the control of Mr. Black Rat. However, there should still be half beasts left on the battlefield between Tenbu and Chereby against Elzard.

"Do you want to run away? It's too late. If you just kept submitting to me, then this incident could have been avoided," Master Black Rat calmly walked up to me.

"You planted something in all of us before the pillars rebels, you planned it all, Master Black Rat!"

"It's just a hidden deterrence, I didn't plan on using it if you guys didn't force me. However, now it was too pate, after everything that happened, I will finish everything I started.

Even though it was painful to kill all the half beasts I had awakened and cultivated, but I could still do it for a second time. For the second time, when the half-beast awakening, I will make sure that they will obey my orders."

I gritted my teeth, staring intently at the figure in front of me. I will not allow more people to suffer as a result of his actions. Likewise, I decided to fight the Black Rat. Even if I die, I should at least take him to the hell!

I expended all my remaining energy, not only that, I also burned my vitality. Now all parts of my body were burning like fire. I let out a loud roar and lunged at him. The Black Rat covered his body with skull armor. The difference between it and the Giant Skeleton was that the skull armor fits perfectly on the body, while the Giant Skeleton was bigger and had space in it.

The Black Rat's legs hit my chest, I was pushed back, but without waiting long, I was able to resist the push of his legs and shot back towards the Black Rats. My legs were held by his hands, I twisted my body trying to kick his head. For a second time, Black Rat caught my leg and threw me up to the sky.

I balance my body, and spit out a gigantic flame from the sky that engulfed his figure. Immediately, I could see Black Rat was growing black wings on his skull armor. He hit me at such high speed that I couldn't dodge. He pushed me towards the surface. I tried to get rid of his hand, but failed. I felt the hard ground hit my back.
