"You're dead!" Aiden shouted at the top of his lungs, aiming to end the captain's career once and for all.
"I didn't think it would've come up to this…" The Captain muttered under his breath in a low voice.
Just before the clash.
The captain manifested his aura, but it wasn't the same one as earlier; this one was… Dark and gloomy, unlike the ethereal aura that shone like a brilliant star.
BOOM!
A massive dust cloud covered the fight.
Sounds of swords clashing were heard within.
Every other reaper turned to face the dust cloud, letting their victims run loose.
As the dust settled.
Two figures were seen within.
One that towered over the other.
SHHK!
The sound of metal piercing flesh.
"AAGH!"
Suddenly.
A black orb-like object swallowed the dust whole.
Aiden was splattered on the ground.
But the captain was nowhere to be seen.
As the reapers itched closer.
They started realising that one of their kind participated in that fight.
SHRIEK!
The reapers started hissing.
In an instant.
They started getting sucked into that black orb.
"Nooo!" A reaper cried out.
"Why! I always have the worst luck!" A second reaper questioned his bad luck
"I can't die like this!" A certain voice echoed from within the orb.
"How, just ho-w, is he still ali-ve?" Aiden mumbled to himself in a low voice.
RING!

"You don't gotta remind me, just help me for once-" Aiden grumbled, but he suddenly got cut off.

The timer slowly went down.
"Task? I didn't ask for a task, did I?" Aiden thought to himself, frustrated at the system's actions.
A hand crept out of the orb, a hand made out of pure bones.
"Wha- was he a reaper all along?!" Aiden mumbled, not believing the sight in front of him.
The unknown figure laughed like a maniac. "You guessed right, CROWN PRINCE!"
Not even finishing his own words, he was already lunging straight at Aiden.
"Wait, no! We can talk about this!" Aiden shouted, desperately putting his arms in front of him to shield himself.
Bzzzz-chhhk!
He opened his eyes, and a huge golden shield was protecting him.
DING!

-Congratulations! Your Golden [Aura] Has Evolved Into Golden [Mana]

"Yeah! That's right! You can't beat me, you ugly skeleton, I don't know what this evolution thingy is, but I like it!" Aiden shouted, smirking at his enemy.
DING!

-Tip-
-Imagine Anything In Your Mind, And It'll Manifest Right In Front Of You If You Have Enough Mana Stored In Your Arsenal-
-Although You Can Only Materialize Fighting-Related Objects Or Spells-
"Oh come on! I wanted to manifest a cake right in front of me, though!" Aiden's sarcastic side came out, mocking his enemy indirectly.
DING!

-Mocking Has Leveled Up!
-Lvl 1 –►Lvl 2.
"How pleasant, I feel like I can mock anyone now!"
"You damn brat! Don't you dare be distracted!" The once captain of the royal guards screamed out, feeling as if his pride was hurt beyond repair.
"Bring it on!"
Aiden raised his arms in front of him, hands sweeping outward as if opening a massive gate, though no gate existed.
Suddenly.
Golden portals materialized behind him.
A huge number of golden swords came out of them, thrown straight at the enemy.
Mana: 14/25.
"Take that, and this too! Oh crap, I forgot about the mana capacity part. I think I'll have to slow down." Aiden thought to himself, scratching his head in disappointment.
"Wha- Where did all of this come from?! Too bad they are too weak-" He got cut off, as a giant ballista bolt flew past him.
He looked down. Aiden was smirking at him, aiming a ballista at him.
"Where did that come from?!" The reaper shouted at the top of his lungs, flabbergasted about where all these weapons came from.
"Straight out of your butthole!" Aiden replied with a shout of his own.
"Wha- How dare you-"
A second ballista bolt flew past him once again.
But Aiden wouldn't let his precious mana go to waste for no reason.
Taking advantage of the reaper's confusion.
He jumped high enough to match the reaper's eyesight.
"Hello, did you miss me?!" Aiden shouted at the reaper in front of him before swinging his sword at him, and surprisingly enough, he managed to inflict a few cuts.
"I didn't think that would even connect!"
"Argh!" The skinless monster grunted.
But he too retaliated with a swing of his one.
But due to his now fresh injuries, he couldn't even graze Aiden.
"You've grown so weak out of the sudden. What could've happened to you in such a short time?" Aiden smirked, sarcastically mocking his enemy.
"You little!" In a last-ditch effort, the reaper managed to grab Aiden's collar, and he pulled him closer.
"I'm gonna take you down with me!" The reaper shouted, his eye sockets started bleeding black blood. And a black orb manifested in his mouth.
"Tch, tch." Aiden lets out a disappointed click before shoving a golden orb straight into where the dark orb would be.
Unexpectedly, Aiden's orb sucked the enemy's orb dry and started lighting up uncontrollably.
He then manifested thousands of swords behind him.
He then kicked the reaper away to create distance between them, before sending the thousands of swords at him.
"Ohhh, right. This is the part where I say the line, isn't it? Hasta la vista, baby."
