596 DXCVI. Fight For Yourself! (1/2)
”You can empower your mortal body as much as you want, 813666, but it won't be enough anyway. Your power comes from that of our race, but it remains a by-product, a waste that comes from a matrix as pure as the tissue that makes up the known Universe. Your dedication is remarkable, I admit it, but... like any existing life form, you will bow to the power of the Xis! I would need a mere movement of my hand to reduce your weak body to dust!” the Xis exclaimed again, whose eyes glimpsed the anger generated by Dag's irreverence, who had even managed to disintegrate a black hole and resist almost all his attacks, getting up every time.
In a dismal scene, Dag's horned head rose upwards and his long pointed tongue remained out of his mouth, while his limbs could not unleash their power due to the force that kept them locked.
His shining purple eyes pointed towards the night sky, searching the Earth among the various stars that illuminated Klorr's Square where the great leader Dag was about to suffer his first and final defeat.
...
”Daaag! Don't stop fighting! Please, Dag! Don't give up! Just stop fighting for us, fight for yourself, save yourself! Show everyone how strong the power inside you is! Show that alien what you're really capable of!” Freydis screamed with all the air in her lungs, who didn't want to give up on the idea that the maximum power achieved by her boyfriend was still insufficient to counter that of the Xis, who seemed not to fear him in the slightest.
”Freydis, it's useless! You don't understand?! The Captain is dying! His dark power derives from that of the Xis, it is obvious that it is less powerful than the energy source that generated it! Fuck, he should have let that alien take a piece of his dark matter! By now he would be safe and sound and we could continue our adventures!” Reidar interrupted, wiping away tears from his eyes, feeling strong anger toward Dag, that despite knowing he had no hope of defeating one the Supreme Court of Xis' members, had launched himself into a merciless fight, disobeying his enemy and master.
”Grrr...no... that's not what I want… this is not the man you just defeated me! Boy, where's your intelligence?! You're just using brute force, you're fighting like me! You're so much more than that! Your mind! It's the one that makes the difference! Find a way to free yourself and start fighting again!” Bloodfang added, who kept himself standing on his wooden stick and did not want to give up on the idea of the young warrior capable of beating him being defeated.
”Dag would never refrain his power.”
”Mh?!”
”What?! What do you mean?!”
”He is the chosen one. He is the only human warrior capable of carrying out the prophecy illustrated in that book... the Crystals of Elements, the Frostsinners... no, Dag cannot die today” the ice mage continued, with his arms crossed and his gaze rabid, focused on the impassive eyes of the enemy.
