Ficool

Chapter 5 - Chapter 4- The Man in Purple

He could feel the heat radiating against his back. It wasn't just breath; it was a furnace. He overcame the fear and jumped ahead. The wicked dragon stands there staring at its prey. 

Kageyama observes him and says excitedly, but fear could be seen in his expression, "Oh well, I can't even imagine telling my friends this experience. So you are really-"

He dodges a huge fireball, paving its way, and the fire hits the wall behind and damages it. 

"But I should say you lack manners. What a fool I am to forget my beautiful espada !"

He jumps on the dragon and scans it - blue in colour, on two legs, with a large face ever ready to kill, and wings.

"Athma: wind push"

The combination reflected the fiery breath of the dragon. He comes behind the creature and thinks, "Well, aren't you small, my friend for being a dragon? You just fit in this room. "

The divine animal fluffles his wing backwards and hit Kageyama. He gets up again and raises his left arm straight up. 

"Vajra: thunderbolt"

As soon as he chanted, he swiftly swayed his hand towards the dragon, and erapendulumm hit him from the roof. The dragon cries in pain, a voice so evil that Kageyama covered his ears.

"Well, your weakness is thunder? Or maybe not for you release fire with your disgusting face."

The dragon shoots fireballs with no end from his mouth until he hits his target. Poor dragon didn't know that Kageyama is known for his agility. He can dodge all fireballs like the eyes of the blue smragon blue sees a seeh. 

The dragon rests, and that was a bad idea for him as the S rank Susan is on his back side, standing so calmly as if he is his pet.

"Well, I should say that you are not a strong fellow. I never imagined Yama killing these two small creatures. I believe they were elders, and you are just a baby dragon. " He thinks

"Well fragile dragon this is the end" he announces and touches the back of the dragon

"Parmatma: instant burn"

A combination of Vayu and Agni causes the fire's effect to reach its maximum. The wings of the dragon burn, and he tries to fly, but the poor creature can't in the small room.

Kageyama instantly realised the danger and was going to move back, but was hit by the burning wings. His head was slammed onto the hard floor. His head bleeds. The fire gets extinguished and vengeance was born inside the eyes of the wicked one. He looked at Susan lying on the floor, opened the mouth and picked his body. 

Kageyama opens his eyes, seeing his reflection in the opponent's eyes. He reckons that the dragon wants to break every bone in his body. 

He giggles and says firmly, "I guess I got cocky but I am not gonna die this way. You are coming to the god with me.....You should have eaten me now; Antarathma: self bombard"

The combination of Vayu, Vajra, Agni, and Prithvi, he used to call a suicide bomb, as this blast takes away everything with it. The beautiful white throne room turned to a red polished one. Fire, fire, everywhere, not a corner left, poor dragon and Kageyama lie in this burning hell. 

The half-dead Susan lies down like the final shine of stars before dawn. The dragon is dead. Kageyama's ear could only hear the flames battling, and he slowly closed his eyes to bid farewell. 

Thump! Thump!

Kageyama slowly opens his eyes and sees a pair of purple boots with diamonds inscribed standing beside his head. He suddenly feels someone touching him and then the man moves towards the dragon.

Strangely, Kageyama recovered, he stood up, and his shaking handstouchedhed his face, being confused. He turns back and looks at the dragon. A man was kneeling and touching the corpse.

"You should not have killed it, the man spoke with a voice so mature, as if he sounded like someone who owns the throne; "He was one of the divines," he continued.

The man stands up and looks at Kageyama, "Hello, Akira !"

Being astonished, Kageyama struggles to remember the royal-pruple dressed man. 

The man smiles and says, "Don't pressurize your mind, my friend."

He walks slowly towards him. No, he moved past him, and Kageyama was still unable to turn his head to see where the man was going. He turned his scared body and the man touched the throne, faces Kageyama, and sits firmly on the throne.

"Who do you think the enemy is ?" Asks the man

"Wo...Wh...Who..." Kageyama coughs.

"Who do you think the enemy is? That's my question." The man says

"Who...who are you ?" Kageyama finally spoke.

"It doesn't matter. "The man replies.

Kageyama stares at the man's face; he was handsome, and his curly hair made him think that he had a past connected with him; it was somehow connected to the blurred memory.

Kageyama cries and speaks, "I am tired of all this. I know you have answers. I know we have acquainted once but why the hell don't you remember-"

Kageyama kneels and holds his head in pain. It's the blurred memory again, but this time, one boy's face was revealed. It's kid Kageyama. 

He faints and regains consciousness.

"The blurred memory? Huh ?" Asks the man on the throne.

Kageyama sees him in anger, and the man stands and approaches him. He touches the chin of Kageyama with his fingers and speaks

"I know your past, I know your present and I know your future. In fact, I know everyone's future. I have the power that no one would ever acquire, I know the truths that everyone runs for, I have 'explored the unexplored' ".

He moves towards the dead dragon and speaks again, "No one stands a chance against me, even that old loon."

Kageyama asks, "Lucius? You also know him, right? He acts strangely with me, like he wants me not to remember. But I know we were friends.

The man sees Kageyama and instantly knealt down and started whispering to the dead dragon in a strange language.

The dragon got his soul back but this time he seemed stronger. The man revived the dragon by enhancing his strength.

As Kageyama blinked, the man was nowhere to be found. He looked back to the throne, and there he sat within a second, as if he wanted to enjoy the battle.

With his heavy feet, the dragon approaches to end his vengeance.

The man lays his head on his left hand while Kageyama lies on the wall, brutally beaten up, blood covers his body, and all his clothes are torn up. He realises that this is a divine dragon. 

The dragon roars in anger, preparing to launch a final attack to finish the story. The man stands up and instantly, within a second, comes near to the dragon, touches him with a finger, and the dragon bursts with his internal organs and blood bursting out.

He snaps and Kageyama got healed again. He sighs and stands up, asks 

"What are you doing even? Kill me if you want. "

The man replies, "no poor friend. I will kill not only you, but the whole world. I should give you a flashback. I, you, and Lucius were friends once, if you remember, and that damn corpse you see every time is because of us. "

Kageyama was expressionless as if he thought that this was during the war, a memory he had completely forgotten.

The man continues, "My friend Akira, old man Yama only fills you with his wicked thoughts. He is the real enemy, trust me. No one in the three nations knows anything. Only I, the strongest of all, became a ruler, a god of this world. I know every secret that lies in the deepest pits of burning Earth. Trust me and get free from this wasteful land, Akira...get free from the slavery. "

Back in the village, as the night deepened, Kamui's mother called for her husband. He slowly closed his leather-bound diary, hiding the name embossed on the cover: 

 "Lucius Kazama"
