"Are you sure that Thirdy can do it?" Kry asked to the other while trying to fend off the other humans who still has the moral to deliver their mission into success. Even though it is pretty useless now. Kry asked himself as he stabbed another human with his gunblade. Are they too stupid or are they desperate to live that they would attack anyone who believed killed their comrades?

"Kry is the only one who can see that human-demon thing. We would only be in his way." X logically answered Kry's question. Kry just nodded in affirmation and spread his golden wings around that spanned a few meters and made the other humans looked at him as if he was baiting them. "You have one majestic wing comparable to the queen." X praised the dragon boy who then released a fireball spell that scattered through the battlefield, sending explosions to different areas where the humans are. "And an overkill ability." X looked away as if he was jealous of the beauty of the wings that his friends have.


"What's your name?" Thirdy looked at the image he was seeing on the battlefield. The kid is still standing in the mist of the pile of corpses he had crushed. The kid was naked and the only thing that covers his body is the mist. But thirdy's eye cannot see smoke or even the mist, he only feels them.

Thirdy Approached the kid again and as soon as he was a few steps from him, he felt the air being crushed around him. But with just a snap of his finger, the heavy feeling faded away. That made the boy looked at him. "Who are you?" His voice sounded like a lost child. It has a sad feeling on it. But the way he asked is also menacing.

Thirdy let our a bead of sweat on his forehead.

As soon as the elf opened his mouth, the kid charged to him and Thirdy saw a lined figured that seemed to be a sword. Luckily, his reflexes that he gained from Luna's training made him much faster on the field with gravity. With the second strike coming along, Thirdy used his gun to parry the blade and snapped another finger to stop the incoming gravity fall on the area.

The boy stepped back a few inches from the elf and began striking again and then with the fourth attempt to stab thirdy again, he let out a quick roundhouse kick that caught Thirdy unaware and he was sent flying to the ground. The kid was ruthless as he began dashing again to Thirdy with the flow of gravity to aid his speed. In response, Thirdy shot a few magic bullets above him and as soon as the bullets reached a certain height, sharpened ice spears rained down on the kid's path. "Drizzle." The spell worked fast and when the ice hit the bloodied ground, it absorbed the liquid on the ground, including blood. When the ice was full, it produced needle-like projectiles that spread through it's perimeters.

The spell made the kid block the magic and protect himself. It also gave time to Thirdy to activate his eyes. And soon as he was standing firmly on the ground, his eyes glowed red with sparks of black around it.

"You, you have the blood of the Origin Experiment." Thirdy knew that he was talking about Alex who came through the same experiment name. "You and I are the same." The kid's voice became agitated but it showed also signs of sadness. Which confuses Thirdy more as to the origin of the kid he was fighting.

But after finishing the sentence, the kid dashed again towards Thirdy, breaking the ice spears on the ground with his gravity. But thirdy had finished preparing for the second spell and his guns froze and made itself into a bit larger handguns. And he fired ice and water shots to the boy. As usual, the bullets are parried by the boy's dagger and found himself near Thirdy's face and ready to strike.

But he was about to be stabbed, Thirdy somersaulted and landed a quick kick on the boy's chin sending the apparition flying on the ground. On the other hand, when Thirdy landed safely, pointed the gun towards the boy and send out a barrage of shots towards him. The boy saw through Thirdy's plan, and he let out a massive fall of gravity, but it didn't affect the bullet which resulted to a few shots on the arms and on his legs.

Thirdy relaxed a bit and put on another stance making his muscles a little tense to prepare for another speed attack of the boy. "Too bad, gravity doesn't work on my bullets anymore."

"You cheater." The boy's voice became demonic and a black aura emanated from him which caught the attention of X and Myrrh who was fighting the humans near thirdy.

"Be careful, he's out of control." X warned Thirdy who already know the feeling of a berserk demon from a personal experience from a friend.

"I know, I just have to be extra careful on saving this kid." Thirdy readied another set of spells around him. It was just like setting a trap with the help of his mental capacity. X nodded with that and continued fighting the other humans.

But as soon as X was about to kill another human, he felt a strange aura coming from the direction on where Kry was baiting the humans.

Kry was sent flying by a certain grey skinned figure with a punch. But luckily, Kry folded his golden wings that served as a cushion for him to land safely and when he regained his footing, Kry let out shots from his gunblade towards the grey demon in front of him. The grey demon tried to escape the shots but got a few hits on his body and black blood spurted out from it. Then Kry reached the grey demon and would be giving a quick slash, but the demon defended himself by holding the tip of the blade of Kry.

"Hello, young boy." The demon spoke as if he knows Kry personally. With the voice of the demon inserted itself in the ears of the dragon boy, he screamed in anger and vengence. And let out hysterical slashes towards the demon who evaded it all perfectly.

"You! I'll kill you right now!" Kry flew from the demon's range and then let out a burst of fire from his wings, searing the ground hot. When the smoke was gone, all that was left was the burning and melting ground but the demon was still on the place where Kry left him, unharmed.

"Don't you know that we demons have a natural affinity with fire?"

"I don't care! I will fucking kill you!" With his words, X assumed that Kry knew the demon he was fighting and he was rushing towards where Kry is. But he was blocked by another human who was wearing a black mail armor that covered most of its body. With a huge black sword that seems to met lots of bones and rocks, with it's lifetime, X stopped his feet and released black magic to at least get past of the Black Knight. But the knight didn't flicnhed.

"What's the rush?" The deep and muffled voice of the knight made X a little tensed and defensive. He knew that he wouldn't be able to pass the boulder he was in. But as he was readying for the attack of the black knight, he saw Kry with his glowing golden wings bringing out golden flames that flies to different directions. X was assuming that Kry was trying to land a hit on the demon he was fighting.

X was right, Kry was trying to land a solid blow to the demon who just keep dodging the shots of Kry. But as as soon as Kry got tired of releasing too much magic from his wing, he folded it and run towards the grey demon. "That's more I like it. Fight just like your kins and be murdered.

Kry defended himself when the grey demon's claw was about to rip him apart, and using the stregnth of the demon to land a soft blow on the demon's shoulder. Kry back dashed and when he gained proper footing, he let out a short blow of shout, and then he breathed in some air to his lung, relaxing his mind a little.

"Good, just stay calm boy, no dragonkin should fall from the dark past that he experienced. Or we will be just as good as a wild dragon roaming around and relying on instinct." Myrrh helped Kry with a mental conversation and it worked for Kry.

Now Kry can sense everything around him for being calm. Including the threatening figure in front of him. But the calm was broken when the grey demon looked as if he was breathing heavily and being crushed by the air. Then he too felt it. It was the same crushing force he felt when he was in the Dragon's Capital. "Thirdy." He was left by a grunt and looked back to the demon who is also having a hard time standing up.


"You do know that no matter what force you give me, you can't make me fall down to my knees right?" Thirdy questioned the bloodied figure that can be now seen by the naked eye. The boy's image reminded him of a human body structure but there was different potruding holes on his back that releases the mist. That must have kept the boy invisible. Thirdy thought that it was a really cunning ability.

"I have to comply or I am dead." The boy said but was cut short when Thirdy put a bullet on the Kid's head.

"Good night boy." And all that was left on that side of the battlefield was the sound of a gunshot.
