Chapter 45 - Chapter 9 (part 4)

But even to say the things about Ray, it's not like they're able to change the past. Maybe everything that has happened should have gone that way.

Hikari has lost a lot of allies before. So he already knows how it feels and has prepared for it. He may have a lot of memories with those people. Like Mizure. His old comrades that he has been destined to fight with.

Their reunion ended up with a death between either of them. But Hikari was okay with it. He has already accepted everything that has happened.

Hikari then just forgot about it; he then looked at Aigawa and told her that they're going to return to their world for now as he worried that something might happen.

Aigawa got it and before they go, Aigawa then told them that he doesn't know what kind of crisis that are awaiting them. But she will do her best to prepare and get through it together with them.

Hikari then gives a nod as it reminds him of when he gathered all the people from different worlds to save all the world together from Yami and the dark world.

For him, that was the most beautiful fight that he ever fought. As he gathered everyone and with their unity, they were able to enter their world.

(This is a fight from Hitaku Quest: the Land of Promises)

Hikari then just opened the world and he entered it together with Aikari. He waved at Aigawa and said a farewell before he leaves.

It's still unknown about the enemies that are currently attacking them. But Hikari will do his best and stop it.

When they arrived in Atrium City, Hikari went and met with Arithia. But as he arrived, Arithia then told him that Mika and his comrades were departing to a certain locale as they heard that something weird was happening there. She didn't know what was happening there, but she just let Mika go. She then asked Hikari if he wanted to go there too. Because it seems like it was something dangerous. So he can help Mika if he wants to.

Since Arithia said it like that, Hikari then began to get curious, but he just shook his head and told Arithia that everything would be alright. So he then told Arithia to return to their room and calm down as Himari was commanding the soldiers there to watch the surroundings. As there's still a chance that they will get attacked or something.

When Hikari leaves, Aikari then returns to Hirumi. But he then saw Hirumi sleeping. So he then headed to the bed and looked at Hirumi while wondering.

"The way she is often sleeping reminds me of the day when I used to sleep all the time and enter the Quantum Memory every day. But never mind."

As Aikari was sitting suddenly he saw another vision. He could see a three group of people where it looked like Mika and his comrades were walking to something that looked like a dark hole beneath it. Aikari got a feeling that Mika didn't know about that trap, and he then quickly stood up and went to Hikari to tell him about that.

But when he walked out, it seemed like Hikari was busy with something. But he just tried to knock Hikari's door and tell him that they need to go somewhere since he just saw something. 

Since it sounds like it was an emergency, Hikari then opened the door and asked Aikari if there was something that mattered. But Aikari then told Hikari that he had a feeling that maybe something would happen to Mika and his comrades. Something that they can't avoid from it. Hikari didn't think that he should be worried if it's Mika. But hearing that from Aikari just makes him certain of it. He then asked Aikari if he knew where Mika and his comrades headed. Aikari didn't know where that place was, but he then just told Hikari the details of that place based on what he saw.

(Mika Situation)

Mika was walking to an unknown location along with Kazuki and Koyama. All three of them could feel an unknown preference. But they all just keep walking cautiously. Ruka then asked Mika if he felt something weird there.

When Mika heard that from Ruka, he then stopped moving and told Kazuki and Koyama to stand still. He didn't hear anything, but he believes in Ruka sense as Ruka are different creations from them.

As they all stopped, suddenly they realized that the ground where they were standing was moving down. All of them then quickly ran towards the exit together. But since they all are running at the same time, somehow the ground that they're stepping on begins to crumble. Koyama then used his spirit strength and threw Kazuki to the exit. He then wanted to throw Mika too, but Mika then swung his heavy sword towards him and pushed him out of that attack. It then just leave Mika there. So Mika then put his sword back and continued to run at all will.

But when he was about to reach the exit, suddenly an unknown fire closed the exit and Mika then fell down to where he didn't even know.

"No way!"

Mika tried to stand up and he then found it was underground with a high temperature. But it was all too dark. The ground that he is standing now is just a piece of the ground from up there.

He saw that Ruka was with him and he then asked Ruka "Can you become my armor? I got a strange feeling." Ruka then agreed with it and she then lended her power to Mika. When Mika transformed, he then saw a big beast in front of him that looked like it was devouring everything there.

The monster stopped devouring as he saw Mika was looking at him and ask Mika "Oh, everyone usually run away on my eat time. How interesting it is to see you here." Mika then looked away in an awkward face as he clearly don't want to tell that monster that he actually trying to run but doesn't have much time for that. So he then keep the heroic act and ask that monster.

"It's deep down here. What are you doing here and why are you here?"

The monster stood up and Mika could see an emblem that looks like a dark hole on it's body. It's glowing and circling as he are moving. Is that his heart or something?

That monster then looked at Mika and said, "This is my place. It's a deep down world for me. Or what did the people call it a Chaos End." Hearing its name, Mika was so sure that there had been a lot of things that happened there. So he then looked at the monster and wondered if that monster ever killed anyone there. Since he didn't attack Mika when he met him, it just made Mika curious.

Mika then stepped ahead and he asked the monster, "are you a protector of this place or something? But if you're, then why did you devour almost all of this ground? It's not a trap for a human, right?" When the monster heard that from Mika, he just couldn't help but laugh. He told Mika that what he said is not wrong, but maybe he shouldn't have that kind of perspective towards the monster. Because it is natural for a monster to attack whatever they see. Because that was how they lived.

But the real reason why he did so is to find a challenger or someone that can defeat him there. So he can put an end and open a new chapter of this world. Mika nods as he hears that. But he wonders what the monster means by opening a new chapter of this world. Will it give an impact to the world or will it just be as usual if it happens?

Mika then asked the monster if he had any intention of doing that. Because Mika could say as to what he saw, it seems like the monster has that kind of purpose too. So the monster then told Mika that he was also there to test out the ability of the people there. There will only be one person that could defeat him in the duel, and he didn't know who. Because he never found one. So he continued to search for an opponent until he met one.

When Mika heard that, he then drew his sword and asked the monster if he was willing to take on the trial because he had fought with a lot of people before. So maybe he can take him down.

The monster is amazed by Mika's confidence, and he then takes out his hand from the lava.

GRUMBLING

"THUD! THUD!"

"THUD"

Mika was so shocked as he saw that the monster's arms were big and his hand was also wrapped with a flames. Its skin is heated up. Mika could feel that he would just melt down if he didn't dodge the attack. He feels afraid. But he just shook those feelings off and got ready for the battle.

"SWOOSH!"

Mika dashed right into the monster and was about to land the attack on it. But the monster gives the direction towards Mika a hard punch that caused Mika to get pushed away by the wind that came from that.

Mika stabs his sword in the ground and as he regains his position, he then continues to dash and this time he watches the monster's movement and behaves on its attack by dodging and sliding on the other side.

Mika might be able to avoid the attack, but the place got affected by that monster attack and it began to cause a lot of big rubbles to fall from above that caused Mika to also watch that.

The monster grabs a big rubble and he then throws it towards Mika. As Mika saw that, he then quickly got ready and was about to give that rubble and slash. Mika jumped towards the rubble, and he combined both his swords and created a much bigger sword, and he sliced through the rubble.

When the rubble began to slice in half, Mika stepped on the a parting rubble and then pushed his weight by it and boosted his dash even more towards the monster.

The monster then moved his hand and hit Mika.

"BOOM"

The place filled with smoke from that attack, but as the smoke got away, the monster could see that Mika was still holding onto his sword and still pushing it towards the monster. 

"SHING!" 

Mika stepped on his sword and pulled it out to jump higher and target the monster head. The monster didn't expect that kind of movement from Mika. But he already prepared for that kind of attack. So he then opened his mouth and charged a flame towards Mika.

"WHOOSH!"

When the flames hit Mika, the monster saw a flying small sword piercing through its fire and protecting Mika. The monster was so shocked by that and as he ended up shooting a flame, he moved his right arm and was going to hit Mika as he knew that Mika wouldn't be able to dash towards him anymore.

But suddenly he saw the small flying sword that was protecting Mika back then attached to Mika's sword and it then boosted the sword and Mika towards his head.

"SPLAT!"

Mika's sword stabbed on the monster's face, and he then quickly pulled it out and then gave that monster an X slash on its face and backed away.

The monster didn't make any sound from that as it felt nothing, and he then praised Mika.

"You must be the human who held the divine weapon. A weapon that could damage Chaos Creation. But, you're no threat as the Immortalis."

When Mika heard about Immortalis, it just reminded him of his father and mother (Hikari and Arithia) where Arithia is the Final Immortal and Hikari is the True Immortal. But what connection does it have with the Chaos Creation? Is it a soldier that has been assigned to the Immortalis to take them down?

But if it's not wrong, Immortalis has been assigned to destroy the dark world which it has been fully defeated 8 years ago. Where Hikari and his comrades, along with Arithia's comrades and all world Union, to take them down. Will it be another war that has a connection with that?

As when Mika is thinking about that, the monster then gives a strong slam on the ground that caused the ground to crumble more. Mika was so lucky that the part that he was standing on was still good, but he then saw something like a dark hole under that ground which kind of made him scared. But he then just focused on the monster.
