Chapter 8: Itaru
The sky became dark and the sun shifted into a crimson red. The light cast from this blood sun tainted the area turning everything into a red tinge. His pale human skin that reflected in the red light started to tear asunder and under it was fur. The demon's body expanded, exploding out of his human sized armor. The spiral horns pierced through his helm, revealing not only his goat like face but his cinder eyes. His boots collapsed under the intense weight, showing his feet were no longer feet but hooves.
"You'll fight me in this form reaper, feel the demonic burn of Itaru!" Shouted the demon.
Picking up the great-sword, he charged me. I clutched my shield, thinking of what I would do next. A surge of energy accelerated through me, giving me the knowledge of how to use my reaper arms.
" For the time being I will give you what you need to fight" The Mysterious voice said.
As Itaru rushed me, I slammed my shield into the ground digging it deep. I uttered the incantation and the spell took effect.
"Bulwark graveyard!"
Numerous shields sprouted from the ground and several hitting Itaru as he attempted to plow through them. Finally one stopped him in his tracks , and in one swoop I sprung over the shield, connecting his face with the shield I was carrying.
"I'm not done! Endless Bulwark Waltz!" I yelled
My body took over, I began moving faster than I could think or process what was happening. I darted around the battlefield, grabbing a shield with each pass. Bolting past the stunned demon, I slammed the acquired shields into his entire body each consecutive blow becoming stronger and faster. At the end of the assault, the demon wasn't visible and he was locked in the many layers of shields.
Deep in his prison, Itaru uttered an incantation of his own. "Hellfire"
The shields began to glow molten and sensing a depth of energy coming out, I jumped backwards. Coming forth from every direction, flame that was from hell itself shot forth. I narrowly dodged the flames that erupted out of the shields like a volcano. Out of the molten steel and rubble the demon walked out.
" That was a good warm up. Let's finish this."
Itaru approached me and I walked up to him, standing in front of each other, this last trade of blows would be the end for one of us.
