Against the World II: Transgression
Chapter 19: Xavier vs. Shiva, part 2
When the six Magical Beasts came out of the six magic circles that Shiva manifested, Xavier immediately knew that the word “Hell” pinned by the emperor on his nickname had no literal meaning. The six creatures were merely Magical Beasts, but their existence was said to be extinct. Maybe that's what Shiva means by his “Hell” ‒ someone has to take pains like in hell to get them.
The six animals had name carvings on their foreheads. “Agni” inscribed on the head of a four-tailed rhino-skinned lion. “Hano” is the name of a two-winged gorilla. Eight-legged and sharp-toothed goat like a crocodile named “Croco”. Name “Ravana” belongs to the four-legged and fire-winged ostrich. Three-headed cobra with spiked back named “Covra”. And, lastly, the four-eared and twelve-winged cat has the “Sakra” name engraving on its head.
They were all powerful, far stronger than any Magical Beast that had ever been encountered in the Great Amarest Forest in Islan. Every one of them Xavier estimates can beat an adult kraken. And, seeing how “Sakra” sits quietly on the back of “Croco”, Xavier can assume that the twelve-winged red cat is the strongest.
“Stop him!” tell Shiva the woman, and instantly the six Magical Beasts were in action.
Xavier quickly created waves of black flames that pointed in all directions. Simultaneously sparks of lightning flashed and engulfed whatever was present, while two super high density black fire swords had formed in both hands. Not stopping there, Xavier again multiplied gravity ten times, making it a thousand times stronger than before.
The waves of black flames mixing with lightning were suddenly drawn in one direction, a person who had appeared dozens of meters to the right of Xavier had absorbed everything.
He's a short green-haired guy a bit curly. Her body is fat. He wears the same attributes as the female Shiva. The only part of his different attributes was just the pendant symbol attached to his necklace. Both of his palms absorbed all of Xavier's fire and lightning. Only the effects of gravity survive. However, somehow, invisible gravity affected him altogether.
Shiva the female version.maybe he can neutralize the gravity that applies to the terte— individuals.
Xavier had no time to finish his thoughts when suddenly the six Magical Beasts had already surrounded him from six directions.
They were fast, but Xavier instantly halted their mobility with [Reverse Law] before their attack touched him. Simultaneously, Xavier swung both fire swords—using one of his sword techniques.
“Hidden Sword Art: Collection of Stardust.” And, instantly the six Magical Beast bodies were filled with incisions that were on the black flames—then they quickly vanished in the black flames.
“A great swordsman. That's an interesting technique. Now let's see if you can beat us.”
The voice came from the left side, someone else had darted through the space distortion. Xavier quickly turned his head there, his two hands spontaneously blocked the two black adamantite spears belonging to the long hijau-haired man tied with a horse tail model—he was unmistakably Shiva as well, and he's six-armed.
Xavier realized his black fire sword did not obliterate the black spear, instead his black flames were absorbed slowly. It makes Xavier try to retreat, but Shiva six-handed not let. If previously only his two hands had attacked, now all of his hands were holding adamantite black spears.
Xavier hates to admit it, but he is cornered. His cheeks had already been scratched by the spear eyes twice.
“Summoning Magic: Seven Hearts Wolf.” The female Shiva returned to summon the Magical Beast.
At the same time, the fat Shiva darted attacking Xavier from the opposite side to Shiva his six— hand clad in greenish-white lightning.
Fat Shiva caught both of Xavier's fire swords and tried to absorb them. Xavier spontaneously unleashed both of his fire swords to be absorbed and then forcefully salted in mid-air while smashing his right heel on Shiva's fat head. Shiva fat both knees bent, Xavier then make the gravity on his legs increased to provide additional power.
However, the long-fanged black wolf had first hit Xavier's back with its tail before Shiva's fat head was crushed.
Before Xavier's body could hit the wall, Xavier performed Space Reversal on Shiva the woman who was just silently observing. Along with Shiva the lady who fell to the floor, Xavier's mouth opened spitting out a black fire Dragon Breath on the black wolf as the center point.
The black wolf spouted its violet flames, but quickly the flames disappeared and the wolf consumed the black flames. However, before the black flames could propagate and also dissipate Shiva's six hands, the fat Shiva had already absorbed all the black flames present.
“What a sickening opponent,” hiss Xavier as he darted towards the fat Shiva with a black fire spear in both hands.
The fat Shiva created two lightning spears. And, just like Xavier, he darted in attack with both spears sharpened.
Xavier deliberately did not fend off the two spears with his two fire spears. As both ends of the lightning spear were an inch from piercing both of his chest, Xavier performed Space Reversal with the female Shiva. And, along with the female Shiva being pierced by two lightning spears, Xavier's chest was hit by a violent blow which immediately threw his body against the wall.
…Rupanya one Shiva the other again—this time the body is stocky and headed plontos—has come.
Xavier grieved and landed himself. His punch was strong, but not as strong as the one Sataniciela had dealt the other day. However, still receiving the blow continuously would not be good for his body. It sucks, and now it's worrying.
“How many body dolls can you control at once?” xavier asked with eyes that pointed at the other three Shiva.
Six-armed Shiva is still on his knees. Shiva woman fell down. Fat Shiva looked at Xavier flat. And finally, the Plontos-headed Shiva pointed his right palm towards the commander. “You will know it soon,” he said flatly, and instantly Xavier's body was drawn towards him.
Xavier grieves and quickly turns to Space-Reversal with the fat Shiva. Without looking towards Shiva the head of the plontos, Xavier struck Shiva's back of the woman who was again sprawled and obliterated her with a black flame. And as the blazing black flames engulfed Shiva's female body, Xavier's left hand pointed towards Shiva's six— hand while making the body shrouded in smoldering black flames.
“You have a troublesome technique, Xavier von Hernandez.” Said Shiva head plontos with a dangerous blink of an eye Fat—Shiva was already standing right on his right. “While I know you will use that technique, avoiding it is impossible. And that 'Kneel' command of yours has made me a little emotional.”
“I don't want to hear that complaint from you. Fighting me with a doll is a coward. And you consider yourself emperor?”
“You shouldn't have a problem, so far you've put up an awesome fight. Sakhra doll body fell over with only one body of my doll (although it was the most superior doll body), you should be proud to have finished off my two main doll body.”
“...And you took issue with my technique,” Xavier comments with a twisting eyeball while standing upright and sighing. “But whatever," he added. "The result is the same. You will lose your doll body one by one, before then your real body will follow.”
