Re:a battle with the gods
Chapter 79
(Episode 381)
3RD PERSON POV:
Ash:so you guys are the one's who had...
[State:Kai Emiya]
He says while standing before Haoyu who dawns the <Morningstar Dragon Robe>
Ash:our armorsuits...
He says while narrowing his eyes as the boy with gears for eyes speaks to him
Haoyu:master, let's just stop this. It doesn't seem right...to break the rules like this
He says as the hybrid cracks his neck and begins to stretch
Ash:continue. Now you're at the right level
He says while pulling his leg back
*ssk*
And throws his keg at the boy
Haoyu:right
Ashes foot connects to the side of his face as a boot connects to Ashes side of his face
Ash:?!
The hybrid is dazed by the kick while Haoyu is completely unfazed as Ash recovers and sends a multitude of attacks at him, cero's, fire balls, you name it only for the student to be unharmed or fazed by the attacks
*POW* *POW* *SLAM* *SLAM*
Haoyu:top right
Ash freezes and tries again
Haoyu:left, middle
The hybrid freezes again and looks at the boy in surprise
Haoyu:you are definitely faster than me. But..I have "prescience", tha ability to see five seconds into the future
Ashes foot connects to his face only for him to brush it off
Haoyu:if I don't use attacks that I can predict for "defence" and instead, focus only on "attacking"...
Haoyu then slams his elbow into Ashes chest
Haoyu:this is what happens
Haoyu then pulls his leg back
Haoyu:plus
[Renewal Recoilless]
*STOMP*
Haoyu:I can easily decide whether to deal another blow based on the damage to my opponent
Ash slumps against the wall his hair covering his eyes
Haoyu:I'm not sure if I told you before but "this" is a truly unbeatable item so just the fact that I used it alone is breaking the rules
Verdandi then appears behind him as he looks at the slumped Hybrid
Haoyu:when combined with my borrowed power it's even more "unfair". Plus, aside from when you're in "Kai Morningstar" state, you're even weaker and clumsier than you where in the competition. Master,can't we just stop this here?
A small rock then bounces off his head as he blinks his eyes
Ash:...I guess not even your prescience is perfect...
He says before spitting out some blood causing it to melt a small hole in the ground
*tssss*
Haoyu:'...when did he throw that rock? I was so focused on him that I didn't even see it'
Ash huffs and pants in exhaustion still slumped against the wall
FLASHBACK: a slightly older Charlie is seen sitting on a hill humming to herself

Charlie lights a small flame in her hand as a small portal opens up infront of her to show humans, and places her hand in the portal as a small barn fire is made as she smiles to herself
Charlie:there now you guys won't get cold anymore you can even cook whatever you caught over it now...
She says while pulling her hand out the portal and watch the humans from the portal with a small smile
Raphael:Charlie
Charlie looks over her shoulder to see her older sister and her mother Murata
Charlie:hey Sis, hey mom!
She says with a wave and a smile as her mother smiles back at her
Murata:hi, honey. I see your looking over the humans again
Charlie:I can't help it, they're just so interesting...
She says while looking back at the portal
Raphael:you fiddled with them again and gave them fire didn't you?
Charlie sweats nervously
Charlie:...yeah...
She says in an almost ashamed tone as her mother sits down next to her along side Raphael
Murata:well...I don't believe that's something to be ashamed about at all my little flame
Charlie:but Urlang and most of the others say otherwise...that I should be ashamed for helping and protecting them. Failed experiments and toys in Lu Tsu's words
She says as Murata brings her daughter's head into her chest while resting her chin on the top of her head while rubbing her youngest's head while Raphael watches the humans in interest
Murata:well then don't listen to them, you made this decision so you should stand by it. It's the same thing I've told your brothers, that they need to be strong and stand by their decision and make their own path. So if you do believe that you have made the right choice you stand by it and ignore the naysayers. Do you understand?
She says while looking down at her as Charlie nods her head
Murata:good. And maybe some day you'll find someone special among them
She says as her daughters groan and sigh
Charlie:*groan* Raph~ make mom stop~!
Murata:what? It's only natural, besides Azrael acted the same way. Now look at her
She says while motioning to the portal as the two red heads look into it to see Azrael on a date
Raphael:huh. Never knew she swung that way
She says as Murata then looks at Charlie
Murata:let me see
Charlie removes her gloves to reveal her heavily burnt arms along side large cuts and bruises
Murata:how long have you been hiding these from me and your father?
Charlie everts her eyes away from her mother's yellow ones
Murata:*firm*Charlie...
Charlie:*quietly* acouple of weeks
She says quietly as Murata sighs while Raphael looks at her
Raphael:who did it? I know for a fact your flames can't do that much damage to you
She says in an angered tone
Charlie:okay, I'll tell you but please don't get mad
She says while looking away from them
Murata:we won't
Charlie:I went down to the human world
Raphael:*agitated* Charlie...
Her sister looks at her
Charlie:I know! I know! That was a horrible idea!
Raphael:yeah! You could have!-
Murata raises her hand at the both of them her eyes closed
Murata:Raphael. Let Charlie explain herself
Raphael huffs and folds her arms as the portal closes
Raphael:fine
Murata then looks down at her youngest daughter and signals her to continue
Charlie:I was on my way back when I was attacked by a couple monkeys...
The older red heads raise a brow at her
Raphael/Murata:a couple?
Charlie:okay, but one in particular did this to me. He was a stone monkey from what I can remember
She says as the older females sigh as a low shine emanates from Murata's hands as Charlie's burns, cuts and bruises heal
Murata:well, I'll have to discuss this with your father and the others
Charlie then grabs her hands
Charlie:please don't! Look I'm okay with dad but not Uriel or Micheal or the any of the others please! They probably only attacked me because I got to close to their home or young!
She says as Murata pats her head
Murata:calm down Charlie, we don't want a repeat of last time. I'll make sure to only speak of this with your father and we'll take it from there.
She says referring to the small flames and steam coming off of Charlie who pulls her hands away from her mother
Charlie:hehe...Sorry
She says while scratching her head nervously before turning to her sister after hearing her clear her throat
Raphael:so until then, you should get yourself some "armor" from big H
Charlie:armor?
TIMESKIP: Charlie is seen with her gloves back on and inside a building and infront of a long time friend of hers
Hephaestus:first off, it's good to see you again after to long kiddo
[Blacksmith
Hephaestus]
She says as said female is seen jumping in excitement
Hephaestus:and that you need the strongest armor possible?
Charlie:*rapid nodding*
Hephaestus sighs while pinching the bridge of her nose
Hephaestus:I can't believe all the work I'm getting lately. What's with these orders?
She then began to pace around the room
Hephaestus:I thought that bald guy seemed nice but then he goes and asks me to make him a weapon that can cut through anything just because some demon boy had a sword exactly like that...then that hairy flirt asks me to make him a sturdy club for his son...then some kind of girl...then a bloody stone monkey and a blue hair demon boy come in asking me to make the same kind of armor and a sword that can cut through space....
She then looks at the red haired Angel
Hephaestus:and now, your also not satisfied with the "Barbadium" armor?
Charlie nods still shaking and bouncing in excitement
Hephaestus:you guys can be a real bunch of nuisances...
Charlie then looks down her excitement gone
Charlie:I know...
Hephaestus then turns to her smoker pipe in her mouth
Hephaestus:then your gonna have to bring me something stronger aswell. The ultimate ingredient
Charlie:the ultimate ingredient?
Hephaestus:something "alive", like you or me. Something divine. I already got it from that demon boy, now I just need one from you and the monkey
Charlie then places her hand on her chin and hms to herself
Charlie:maybe I can help you?
Hephaestus then thinks for a sec
Hephaestus:your turning fifteen tomorrow, right?
Charlie gives her a small nod while removing her hand from her chin
Hephaestus:all right then, tomorrow I expect you to be here at 8 in the morning at the sharpest, got it?
Charlie salutes and gives a rapid nod at her
Hephaestus:good. Now run along, don't want to get in trouble with Raph, Amenadeil or Lucifer
She says only for the red head to hug
Charlie:I missed you and I won't let you down bestie!
She spreads her wings and flies off before Hephaestus can say anything as the God chuckles to herself
TIMESKIP: Hephaestus' shop is seen destroyed and in ruin and on fire as Charlie takes her glove off and holds her hand out to the flames
Charlie:*ssssssssp*
And closes her hand into a fist extinguishing the flames as she puts her arm down and her gloves back on and turns over to see the monkey King and a blue haired boy with an injured Hephaestus and walks over to them
Hephaestus:man, Charlie you really gave that bald guy a run for his money, huh?
Charlie says nothing only having her hair covering her eyes while clutching the finished Yamato in her hands
Hephaestus:you three passed the test
She says before looking at the two fifteen year olds, specifically the red head
Hephaestus:here's my late birthday present for you, Charlie. Hope you like it
She says as the <Morningstar Dragon Robe> wrapps around her only this time the warm grey tailcoat becomes white with a red fire and golden edge with a golden belt, a Cape with a red and gold fire imprint, the purple become red and gold
Charlie:thank you...
She says before handing the Yamato over to the blue haired demon boy
Charlie:here, it took us a while...
She says still trying to hold in her tears as Hephaestus casts her a sad look before patting her on the head before Jaicheondaeseong walks over to her furnace. As the <Abyssal Dragon Robe> wrapps around the demon boy's body as he looks over it before looking over to where Charlie was to see her gone
A FEW WEEKS AGO: Charlie is seen with Hephaestus after finishing the two Dragon robes
Hephaestus:just so you know, since your blood was in the mix, part of your consciousness will be part of the armor, hence forth "you" will determine whether the owner is worthy and decide their fate. And as soon as that person becomes unworthy of it..."you'll" leave them immediately...
FLASHBACK OVER: Ash is still seen slumped against the wall his head hanging
Ash:'at the time I gave up on my own life...then, the Dragon Armorsuits abandoned me right away...'
Ash then begins to stand up
Ash:seriously...I know I've used it once...but it really is an unfair item. I was practically invisible to begin with, but then I got Incursio's armor and the dragon Robe and put them on, and you know the rest. Oh, did that sound a bit cocky?
Ash fully stands up his arms resting at his sides
Ash:while living as Kai Emiya for the last 4 years...I started to wonder something as I watched Rukia Kuchiki and Ichigo Kurasaki and the others. What am I now that I'm not Kaicheondaeseong? Am I worth anything now?
He then looks at his studen both his pupils becoming four star pointed and glowing purple
Haoyu:...
Ash:what does "power" mean in the first place? Why is it that they don't feel weak at all even though they can't even begin to be compared to Kaicheondaeseong in terms of physical power? Now I'm determined to prove everyone wrong
He then gets into a fighting stance
Ash:I want to prove that I'm more than strong enough as "Sung Ash-woo", even though I'm not Kaicheondaeseong anymore...I want to prove that I'm worthy
Haoyu then gets into a fighting stance
Haoyu:I'm not surprised, master!
Haoyu throws a punch at Ash who dodges while kicking Haoyu's leg as the wall behind Ash is caved in
*WHAM* *pow*
Haoyu throws another attack at Ash who dodges
*WHAM*
He throws another attack at the hybrid who dodges
*POW*
Haoyu:urgh!
He grunts in frustration and throws a front kick at Ash who dodges it and kicks his leg as the wall behind the hybrid is caved in further and destroyed
*WHACK* *pow*
Ash pivots and throws a back kick at the same wall that was destroyed and ends up caving it in even further and completely destroying it
*CHHH* *CHHH*
MEANWHILE:
*RUMBLE*
Melina and Jin glance at the hole in the ground to see a small corner of it collapse and smirk before turning their attention back to their fights
WITH ASH: Haoyu looks up to see rocks and debris falling down
Haoyu:'rocks?!'
*sssk*
Ash gets into a fighting stance with his right arms wrist touch Haoyu's left wrist both in the same fighting stance. As Haiyu looks down to face his master
Ash:separate hands
Haoyu:awesome!
The debris and rocks continue to fall around the two fighters as Haoyu throws a kick at Ash who jumps up into the air and wrapps his arms and legs around Haoyu's leg
[Ssamsu
Foot grip]
Ash then twists his body while holding onto Haoyu's leg
Ash:'I don't know about physical attacks but even the dragon armorsuits is helpless against submission'
Haoyu:'damn it, my leg...!
Haoyu then jumps into the air and twists in the same direction Ash twisted
*WHISH*
Ash:'Haoyu! He jumped in the direction that I twisted his leg!!'
The combatants fall to the groind with a thud as Ash continues to hold onto Haoyu's leg as the rocks and debris fall on top of them
*POW* *POW*
Ash bears the pain while clenching onto Haoyu's leg whole gritting his teeth as Haoyu is unaffected by the falling rocks and debris
Haoyu:'I misted my chance to twist-...!'
He looks up at the debris to see a small grey object falling down as he immediately recognizes it
Haoyu:'Neuntote?!'
Ash:I have you in a perfect hold. Not even your prescience will help you avoid this
Neuntote falls onto Haoyu's back and ends up going straight through his chest while breaking his rib cage and spine
*CRUNCH*
Haoyu:?!
*TICK* *TICK*
Haoyu:'just now was that five second into the future?!'
A cross then appears in his palm
*CLANG*
Haoyu looks at his palm before placing it on his chest
Ash:t-that skill?!
A low glow emanates from Haoyu's palm as Ash is sent flying off of him as the rest of his hoodie is destroyed leaving him in his jeans and the Jersey that was tied to his waist as Haoyu quickly gets up and moves out of the way as Neuntote connects to the ground
*SLAM* *SMASH*
Haoyu:wow~ that was so close just now!!
Ash falls to the ground
Ash:'He used the skill on himself...to avoid it? He took advantage of the dragon armorsuits defensive ability. He understands it even better than me...plus, I thought it was just luck when he copied the Renewal skill after seeing it just once, but just now...that was definitely...'
Ash sits up with obvious struggle as he coughs up some blood and looks at Haoyu
Ash:'Soljin Park's and Mubong Park's borrowed power and skill! This just proves to me on just what the hell He is...!'
Ash quickly gets up and kicks the boys leg again
Ash:'for now...'
*WHAM*
