The General had long grey and white hair which were fluttering in the wind, his eyes were emerald in color, and he had a sturdy build, his armor was made up of a black colored metal which gave him a very dominating look. He also had a large white cape on his back.
He held his hands behind his back and spoke in a voice full of pride: "Ahhh! The great Theodore Mayer, savior of the people, protector of Lassnia. Your reputation precedes you, I have heard about your achievements during the past three years. To be true, after all that fuss about you, I was expecting a bit more, actually a lot more, you are quite underwhelming if I must say. Anyway, I think this is to be expected from a traitor; even the heavens have given up on you, your army is gone, friends are being hunted, and you are utterly pathetic and weak. Now as a man of great stature, allow me to help you get rid of this miserable life of yours and set you free.", just as he finished speaking an immeasurable amount of powerful aura surged out from his body.
Derrick and William felt as if they were placed inside a tornado; they felt as if their skin would be torn apart from their skeletons; it was tough for both of them to maintain their composure, " Not even giving us a moment to prepare huh? This is very unlike you Lord Hiram.", said, Derrick, while gritting in pain.
"Do not tell me now that the great hero of Lassnia is afraid of a bit of disparity in strength." said Hiram with a calm smile on his face.
"Afraid?" Derrick chuckled, "Yes, I admit that you are stronger than me, a lot stronger in fact. But that does not mean that I'm completely helpless.", A powerful aura surged out of Derrick's body; the aura was filled with the might of a ruler. The aura unleashed by Derrick startled Hiram, the unleashed might be less in quantity, but the strength of the aura was enough for Derrick and William the regain their composure.
"How? You have the strength of a mere marquess, how can you fight against my aura, the aura of a mid-tier king?" asked Hiram, this was something that he did not think was possible. He came to the town square thinking that he will crush Derrick and William within an inch of their lives, but right now both of them were standing in front of him, completely unaffected by his aura.
"You should know about this, after all, you are a part of my fan club." scoffed Derrick.
"I see. So, the rumors were true; you do belong to one of the emperor clans. A FORGOTTEN. BASTARD. CHILD. OF. ONE. OF. THE. EMPERORS." said, Hiram, while enunciating each word.
"But if you think, that is something that's going to save you today, you are gravely mistaken, my friend. Today is the day you die." said Hiram in a very dominating manner. He raised his left hand in the air, thousands of particles of light started gathering together, in mere moments the particles of light converged into a hundred-meter long greatsword. Hiram flicked his hand forward; the greatsword started moving towards Derrick at a great speed.
"Seal of soul open. Power of. Consummate activate.", Said Derrick. Just as he finished saying this, white steam started coming out of his body, in mere moments he was inside a dome of white steam.
"Hahahaha. It seems that you have completely lost your wits, you think that a pathetic barrier like this will protect you? DIE!!!!", Shouted Hiram. The speed of the greatsword increased greatly; it streaked across the sky leaving a trail of white light behind.
Just as it was about to reach Derrick. Blue light shimmered on Williams body, the light grew brighter and brighter, and in mere moments he was inside a Pillar of blue light. The same thing happened with Derrick; he was now inside a pillar of Black Flames.
A few moments later, two humanoid figures walked out of the pillars, one of them had blue skin, a very muscular build, a mouth full of razor-sharp white teeth, and a pair of wings, it was also carrying a large chain scythe on its back. It was clear that this was Williams humanoid form of whatever monster he turned into before. The other one of these two humanoid figures had a slightly dark red colored skin, it had a moderately muscular build, and veins popped out all over its body giving it a very intimidating look. It also had two sharp and large horns protruding out of its head.
"I told you, I am not completely helpless here." said the humanoid figure with a serious look. From this statement, it was clear that this humanoid figure was none other than Derrick himself. He unsheathed two Black katanas, these katanas had a red tint, appearing as if blood is dripping from it.
Derrick then flickered and appeared right in front of the approaching greatsword with his katanas held together. The greatsword and the katanas clashed, resulting in an outburst of energy, due to this outburst all the windowpanes in the nearby area shattered.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH", screamed Derrick as he was fighting against the force exerted by the great sword. Suddenly, black flames erupted beneath Derricks feat propelling him forward, Derrick broke from the standstill and started pushing the sword backward. This agitated Hiram, he pushed the sword forward with greater force. This Derrick was unable to withstand the force exerted by the great sword, so he parried the sword to his left changing its course.
Now the sword was heading towards William. William threw his chain scythe towards the sword, the chain of the chain scythe wound itself around the greatsword, William then pulled the greatsword towards him while spinning, this significantly increased the momentum of the great sword.
William then released the greatsword while aiming it at Hiram. The sword approached Hiram with speed even greater than before, Hiram tried to stop the sword by pushing it back using magic, but due to the significantly increased momentum of the sword he was unable to do so.
*BOOOOOOMMMMM* the sword collided with Hiram. The collision was so powerful that all of the remaining buildings in the nearby area collapsed and the Debris gave rise to a dust cloud which resulted in decreased visibility of the surrounding area. A few moments later the dust cloud started to settle, resulting in increased visibility.
In front of Derrick and William appeared a figure, nearly cut in half, the wound stretched from the left side of its face to the right side of the lower abdomen, it was only being held together by a small amount of intact flesh and muscles. It was Hiram.
*COUGH* *COUGH* "It seems that I have underestimated you." *COUGH* *COUGH* said Hiram while coughing on his blood. "No worries, this is just the beginning." *Cough*.
Light particles in large amounts started to gather around Hiram, in a few seconds his whole body was covered by light particles shining brightly. A few moments later the particles flashed and disappeared, and appeared a completely healed Hiram.
"I have to admit, although you are very young, you have the strength for this old man to get serious. From this moment onwards I will stop playing around. I have lived for two hundred and seven years, and this is the first time I will be getting serious against a youngster. Pardon me.", saying this Hiram reached out with his hand and a Longsword made of light appeared in his hand. Hiram then grabbed the sword and placed his other hand behind his back; he then streaked across the sky appearing right in front of Derrick.
This sudden change of events startled Derrick, before he was able to regain his wits, Hiram slashed down with his sword, Derrick barely managed to block the attack, but the blunt force of the attack was so great that he was thrown out of the sky crashing on the ground, the impact was so great that the nearby ground shattered.
*GGHAA* black colored blood gushed out of Derricks' mouth as he was gasping for air. William rushed towards Derrick. After reaching Derrick, he bent on his knees and took out an orange colored pill.
"Here take this." said William while supporting Derricks head up.
"Eyes on the battle boy!!!!" out of nowhere a kick landed on Williams' face and he flew away dropping the pill near Derrick. William first crashed on the ground and then kept rolling for quite a distance and stopped after crashing into a wall which resulted in the wall shattering.
William tried to get up; blood was coming out of his right year. As he got up, it seemed quite difficult for him to maintain his balance as everything was appearing quite blurry to him. He stood up by grabbing a broken pillar, but just as he got up, a punch landed on his face and sent him flying away.
This time he landed on a large tree, the tree broke on impact and blood gushed out of Williams' mouth. A figure appeared where William was lying unconscious.
"Hmm! A kick and punch at the speed of light and all you do is bleed and get unconscious, you are a tough one aren't you. Too bad that things have to end in such a tragic way. You have earned my respect boy." said Hiram as he closed his eyes.
He then started descending his Longsword rapidly towards William.
*CLANK* the sound of metal colliding alarmed Hiram. He opened his eyes and what stood in front of him shook him.
In front of him was Derrick with his eyes closed, he was carrying William on his shoulder. But something was different about him, his long white hair was now elevated in air and on his head was crown made up of black flames, his hands and arms were now blue in color, and his katanas were also a bit longer than before Derrick opened up his eyes, his eyes were emitting a light blue light. It seemed as if his eyes could look and pierce through anything in the world.
"You shouldn't have done that." Said, Hiram, as he slashed his Sword towards Derrick.
*Puchi* the sound of a blade piercing through flesh resounded. But Hiram had his eye wide open, the attack that had injured Derrick before to an inch of his life, now he just stopped it with his bare hand. Although a blade pierced Derrick's hand, he acted as if nothing had happened.
Derrick grabbed the blade and said in a very dominating and echoing voice, "You should not have done that."
Derrick than flicked his hand and sent Hiram flying. Hiram then crashed on a large boulder and blood splattered out of his mouth.
Hiram barely managed to open his eyes, as he opened his eyes he saw Derrick pulling out the longsword from his hand. As he was holding the longsword, the sword was engulfed by blue flames and was incinerated.
"This seems interesting," whispered Hiram as light particles gathered around him and he started healing himself.
