Chapter 63 - The Ark Of Minwoo (2/2)

”Wrong.”

The revelation through Raiyen off course, allowing Minwoo use the pommel of his Wakazashi to stab the boy's abdomen. This sent him hurling towards the opposite direction with speed.

”Big words for someone so weak, eh? Senor,” replied Minwoo, pushing the Time Mage away.

”Why would Mavislin choose you, of all people?” asked Raiyen, through gritted teeth.

He spat out some blood as he prepared to launch another attack.

”Well, I am stronger than you.”

The smile that Minwoo gave was a prideful one, giving a bad impression towards the Time Mage.

”We'll see how you fair against Magecraft,” replied Raiyen, as he gathered his Elemental Energy.

The familiar stance of crossing his twin blades alerted the Valkyrie. Minwoo caught on, knowing that he might not be able to win if he doesn't use his actual weapons.

”Converge, convulse!” yelled Raiyen.

Minwoo closed his eyes as he saw the oncoming attack. His arms were stretched out, it looked like he was about to hug the incoming attack.

”Come,” said the Marquess as his eyes flew open.

”Lunminera Nova!” yelled the Mage.

”Gemini!” yelled the Marquess.

A spark of light blinded the group as the attack that took down Mavislin's wing was stopped by two oversized scythes.

The scythes were silver, adorned with a few skulls at the top end of the handle. Bones were literally the handle of the two weapons he wielded.

The attack immediately ceased as Minwoo gave a good swing, destroying the spell altogether.

”You are human, but the weapons you wield makes you look inhuman,” replied Raiyen, giving another slash at the Marquess.

”Well, these are presents. You clashing with the bones of my victims,” said Minwoo, grinning sinisterly.

”You disgust me, lunatic,” cursed Raiyen.

”It's not different from the Time Mage's ability to absorb a being's Time. Come to think of it, you remind me of the Umbras,” explained the Marquess.

”Like hell I would do that.”

With all the fighting, Jeanette finally threw her flagpole towards the two dueling. This earned a shocked look from Metria and Mavislin, while Baldwin remained indifferent. The Time Mage leapt to safety, leaving Minwoo to deal with the attack.

As the dust cleared, Minwoo was left standing. He held up the two scythes in order to block the attack. He threw it back to the French Maiden.
