Bab 331: The End of Fairy Tale
Mars.
That single word echoed in the minds of the four people who heard it repeatedly ever since Alex said it, none even coming close to accepting that they were in fact on another planet than the one they had always called home. Earth was something familiar, something constant in their lives. Learning that they were on an entirely different planet unnerved each of them more than Alex ever could have expected, the idea of using that single fact as a form of mental attack never even occurring to him. Unsurprisingly, Gairen was the one who eventually stated,
"Don't bullshit me. Mars in uninhabitable for life, even for a few mere minutes. Do you really expect that we'll believe that you managed to teleport us halfway across the solar system, to a planet that no one can breath on yet alone survive, just to avoid collateral damage?" When they heard this Gyokuro, Issa, and Raika all looked at Alex in annoyance at the fact that he had set up such an 'obvious lie', despite the fact that he had simply been telling the truth.
With multiple opponents, and possibly Alucard himself, Alex had set up a stage away from anything that could have been used against him, either intentionally or not, and where he didn't have to worry about holding his own strength back to avoid damaging the surroundings. He had gotten the idea after hearing about Hajime's artifact that allowed one to survive in space despite the vacuum and cold, and Alex had used Hajime's prototype endless energy machines that he acquired from his trip into the sky world to supply power to keep the spells running that made Mars safe for people, namely a magic circle that performed artificial photosynthesis and a form of barrier to trap heat and the planet's newfound oxygen. As a result Alex not only set up a stage for himself, but the data that Hajime received from the experiment allowed him to form several future plans for possibly terraforming other planets.
Naturally this topic took a backseat in Alex's mind as he focused on the four opponents before him, before replying to Gairen's skepticism with a shrug, "It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, all that matters is that it's time to fight!" At this his four opponents finally also took a stance as they prepared to clash, before Raika suddenly shot himself forward as electricity arched around him.
"Let's see how you take this!" He shouted, as his body itself started turning into pure lightning to bolt at Alex instantly. Appearing directly behind him at speeds akin to teleportation, Raika then placed his hand on Alex's defenseless back and summoned more lightning than he ever had before in his human form.
"Enjoy having your blood boil and flesh dissolved!" Raika stated as his power coursed through Alex's body, which would have been an instant kill on almost any other opponent, almost. Amazingly Alex was still standing even as the intense lightning died down, seemingly no worse for the wear even after taking what was Raika's most powerful and cruel attack. Instead he casually turned to look at the Raijū behind him, and asked condescendingly,
"Was that it? My head sex slave sneezes out lightning more powerful than that." Though he was slightly dumbfounded that Alex was apparently undefeated by his attack, when Raika noticed his hand coming towards him he immediately started turning himself into lightning once again to take some distance in order to transition to his true form.
Once again contrary to his expectations though, Raika felt something grip his body tightly despite being in his intangible form, and he was suddenly slammed against the ground with such force that a crater formed under him and blood sprayed from his mouth. "H-how?" He gasped out with a rasp, to which Alex shook his head and answered,
"You were too arrogant with your speed and ability to turn into lightning, at the very least you should have always remained on guard on the off chance that someone was faster and could touch you." Though Raika only groaned in response to Alex's words, another voice suddenly said,
"'Arrogance', I'll return that back at you for letting your guard down!" As the Gairen's voice reached his ears though, Alex simply tilted his head to the side to allow the thrown katana to fly harmlessly by him. Then, he reached out and grabbed the flying katana by the hilt before swinging around and returning it to Gairen with even more force than it had before, resulting in it being imbedded in his armor's breastplate right where his heart should have been, before sprouting from the other side.
"Who said my guard was down?" Alex taunted at the supposed samurai's attempt to kill him. Gairen's response to this was to simply look down at the hilt sticking out of his chest, before he calmly pulled it out and produced several dozen more blades from within his armor. They all started hovering around him eerily as he used what appeared to be a form of telekinesis, before all of the blades suddenly shot at Alex while aiming at the various vital areas of his body.
Naturally Alex evaded or diverted each of the blades with ease, the only one that even came close to making him nervous being the tontō that had been aimed directly at his nether regions. Which Alex grabbed by the hilt when it was less than an inch away from the tender flesh, before saying to Gairen incredulously,
"Really?! That's such a dick move man!" Gairen however seem unamused at Alex's quip, and used his powers to start dissolving the stone under his feet to destabilize him while the rest of his weapons turned around to make a comeback. Instead of this succeeding however, Alex instead suddenly appeared in front of Gairen before swiping at his helmet to remove it, revealing that there was no body inside the armor and that it was actually empty. Rather than being surprised by this though, Alex instead held the helmet out in front of him before dropping it so that it connected with his foot, sending the piece of metal flying into the atmosphere while he shouted, "GOAL!!!"
Of course Gairen was less than enthused that a part of his 'body' was being treated in such a way, and, with the appearance of even more weapons from within his armor, Alex was soon surrounded by over a hundred weapons pointed directly at him along with a naginata that Gairen's headless body wielded. With Alex seemingly cornered and a tone of fury in his voice, Gairen shouted out, "'Dance of a Hundred Blades!'"
As if they each had a mind of their own while also moving in perfect harmony, the swords, knives, and various other smaller throwing blades all swept down at Alex in a perfect rhythm to both attack, and cut off any attempt to dodge or escape he might make. Despite the seemingly periless situation he was in, Alex smirked with a condescending smile directed at Gairen as his figure suddenly blurred in response to the weapons attacks.
For several seconds Alex avoided each of Gairen's seemingly unavoidable attacks by either dodging by the slightest amount, or using a single finger to just barely redirect the deadly sharp blades at the last second. This lasted until Gairen's still headless body came charging with the naginata, which was apparently the moment Alex was waiting for as he met the living armor directly. Quicker than he could react, Alex grabbed a few pieces of his armor and said with a smirk,
"Let's see how long it'll take you to 'pull yourself together'!" Using a combination of raw strength and Spatial magic, Alex then removed various pieces of Gairen's armor and sent them flying all across the Martian terrain before the living lump of metal could even fight back. With his focus now having been taken up by trying to put himself together again, all of Gairen's weapons suddenly fell to the ground lifeless as Alex turned towards the remaining two people, Gyokuro and the fake Issa, before saying provocatively,
"Next?" Gyokuro's brow twitched as she stepped forward and said,
"Of course those two buffoons couldn't do anything. If you want something done right then you've got to do it yourself." The moment she finished speaking Gyokuro and the fake Issa immediately disappeared and reappeared on either side of Alex as the fake went to punch him, while Gyokuro slashed at him with her hand in the shape of a blade. In response to their attacks though, Alex simply held up a finger on each hand while using Spatial magic on one to block Gyokuro's imitation Jigen-Tou, making both attacks stop in their tracks.
In the same movement however Gyokuro brought her other hand forward to touch Alex's arm, where she then sent a massive wave of electricity into it in an imitation of Raika's earlier attack. Naturally the attack had just as little effect as the Raijū's, especially since Gyokuro didn't have the same affinity for lightning as Raika, but before she could even register that she found Alex's knee in her gut, and she was sent flying into a nearby mountain.
At the same time Alex grabbed the fake Issa by the throat and held him up into the air with ease while the doppelgänger struggled helplessly. As he looked the doppelgänger up and down while they tried to break his arm, Alex couldn't help but ask,
"Why continue acting as Issa when I freed the real one quite a while ago already?" The doppelgänger froze when he heard that, before answering with a sneer,
"Because that weakling wanted to trade all of this power and authority to live with humans! So, if he didn't want it, then why doesn't someone who'd appreciate it have it instead?" The moment he finished speaking, the doppelgänger then reached out and grabbed onto Alex's face while seemingly aiming for his eyes. In response Alex threw the doppelgänger away even as he had a slight smirk to his face, right before Gyokuro returned to try and drop her heel onto his head. This time Alex smirked as he easily caught her attempted attack, even as the ground around him caved in from the force of her kick, and said as his gaze traveled up her now parted dress,
"Ooh, a black thong? Since you jailed your husband I wonder who you're trying to impress with that~!" Alex's leering gaze combined with his taunt made Gyokuro's face flush red with indignation, not that she was embarrassed at being seen, but because of the fact that someone as 'lowly' as Alex was leering at her delicates.
"Scum!" Gyokuro swore as she tried to remove her leg from Alex's grasp, only to tear her little black dress so that even more of its contents were visible. Naturally her indignation only grew at this and, after Alex released her leg, Gyokuro shot him with a look of loathing before spitting at him, "Now you've pissed me off!"
She then reached up and grabbed her own rosary that matched Kahlua's, before swiftly removing from the clip that held it in her hair. Immediately Gyokuro's power shot up as the surroundings began to even fracture from the raw force of it, however Alex's gaze was still centered on her delicate area, which was now exposed due to her aura making the torn dress flap freely.
Though he was tempted to say something to mess with her, instead Alex's grin widened as his hand momentarily blurred, and he held something up for Gyokuro to see. Naturally Gyokuro had no interest in whatever Alex was planning, but when she saw the familiar lacy black thong dangling from his finger her mental facilities completely froze. Slowly, the power around her started dying down as Gyokuro reached down and hesitantly lifted the edge of her dress to peer underneath it, only to see her bare pussy on display. A wolf whistle made her look back up at Alex, who then commented,
"Completely shaved just for me? Oh, you shouldn't have!"
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
In response to his comment, Gyokuro released an animalistic scream before she lunged at him with not a single care left for image, her only goal to hurt him as much as possible. Of course the first move to do so was to send her leg directly between both of Alex's to deliver the most brutal ball kick in history, only for a sickening crack to echo at the moment her leg impacted Alex's nether regions. Then, while also repressing his shudder at the second ruthless attack, despite the fact that he had used Armament Haki to protect himself, Alex commented,
"Isn't this is where the saying 'balls of steel' come into play?" Not finding his comment even remotely amusing, Gyokuro continued her assault despite the fact that one of her legs was broken, desperate to slap the smirk off of Alex's face.
While he was fending off the assault of the enraged woman, a series of storm clouds suddenly started forming a short ways away above the crater where Alex left Raika, before a beast suddenly emerged and charged at them. It had a slim yet muscular body while two horns jutted back from the sides of its head, both crackling with electricity as the Raijū focused on its hated enemy.
He never even got the chance for his rematch however, as another blast of rock and debris erupted from the opposite direction before a second figure rushed at them, crashing into Raika and sending him flying from the force of the impact. When the dust cleared from around the impacted area though, a second Alex came into view instead of the fake Issa. With a wide maniac grin on his face, the doppelgänger started laughing insanely before declaring,
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! To think you were hiding all of this POWER!" The fake Alex then charged directly into the clash between the real Alex and Gyokuro, landing a hit that, despite being blocked by him, pushed Alex back by a few feet. With his insane smile widening, the doppelgänger declared,
"Any chance you had of winning just went out the window the moment I touched your face! Now, PREPARE TO DIE!" As if to demonstrate just how much Alex hadn't taken any of them seriously, the doppelgänger then brought both of his hands down directly onto the top of Alex's head. Of course Alex managed to easily block the attack, but an earthquake was felt for several hundred miles surrounding their location, and a crater formed under his feet several hundred feet wide that was at least fifty feet deep.
Releasing another round of insane laughter, the doppelgänger leapt out of the crater he had formed without even giving the still standing Alex a backwards glance, no longer even seeming to put him in his eyes. He then said while admiring himself, "No wonder you sided with that fool Issa, you're the same type of weak minded person that has the strength but no will to use it!"
It was at this point that the doppelgänger seemed to notice something else, and pulled the waistband of his mostly destroyed pants out to see what it was, only for his already massive smile to widen as he said, "Seriously?! Some guys have all the luck!" At that moment Gyokuro walked over and said to him,
"I want to smash that stupid looking face in, but good job taking his form! Now no one will stand before us once we take out this bastard!" When he heard this however the doppelgänger frowned as he asked,
"Us?" Gyokuro gave him a look as if he was acting stupid as she said,
"Of course 'us', I'm still your boss and the moment we kill this bastard we'll go back and awaken Alucard as we planned-!" When she got to this part however the doppelgänger grabbed her suddenly by the throat before growling,
"There is no more 'us'! Now there's only me!" He then looked at Alex and Raika, who were both just standing there watching silently, with contempt before adding, "'We' will work together to destroy this bastard, but once that's done I'M the new 'Dragon Emperor'! It'll be in MY name that we wage war against the humans, not that old relic Alucard's!"
At this point he turned back to look at Gyokuro with disdain, before he grabbed the collar of her dress and promptly ripped it off so that she was now completely naked with the exception of her booted heels. His eyes passed over her naked form with both desire and contempt, before he added, "You however Gyokuro, will be my personal sex slave to compensate for all the years you looked down on me while I was Issa!" When she heard this Gyokuro narrowed her eyes at him in disgust and revulsion, which made the doppelgänger backhand her with enough force that her neck snapped as she was sent flying away.
"Humph, she'll learn soon enough when I try out my new 'toy' on her. Now Raika, it's time for us to kill this fucker-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Before he could continue on with his insane power trip, a pair of disk shaped lights passed by the doppelgänger while he was mid sentence, severing both of his arms right below the shoulders instantly. While he was distracted by the pain the very person he planned to depose, Alex, suddenly appeared before with a disappointed look on his face before saying,
"I let you 'copy' me because I thought I'd get a good fight out of it, but what do I get? A pathetic b-grade villain who lets MY power go to his head while also deluding himself into thinking he could ever beat/replace me..... How disappointing....." As he trailed off Alex's look of disappointment turned to disgust as he watched his own face contort disgustingly from the pain the doppelgänger was in, prompting him to sweep the fake's legs out from under him, before planting his foot on the back of his head and slamming his face into the ground so he didn't have to look at it or hear the sobs of pain.
Alex then looked back at Raika and said, "I'm tired of this fight, so I suppose it's time to end it..." As he trailed off again, another voice behind him answered,
"What a coincidence, I was thinking the same thing!" Alex didn't even look as he instinctively dodged Gairen's katana once again, before holding his hand out nonchalantly.
"I think I'll start with you." He said casually to the living suit of armor that had finally pulled himself back together, as a ball of fire formed in his outstretched hand. Gairen could only float there and watch as, as if in slow motion, the fire suddenly surged towards him as it grew into a colossal tidal wave that covered not only him, but the surroundings behind and around him for tens of miles, burning hot enough that his armor began melting before he could even try to react to it. That wasn't all though as all of the sand and rock caught within the flames as well started melting down into a magmatic material, so that when Alex stopped the attack after several minutes, what was left was a scene as if from hell with no trace left of Gairen.
Naturally Alex wasn't sure if just destroying the armor was enough to eliminate the spirit inhabiting it, so he had also infused his 'Soul Break' skill into the flames, ensuring that there was absolutely no chance that Gairen managed to escape from the inferno. With the glowing magmatic stone sloshing down to form a giant pool of the stuff even as the cold Martian air already started cooling it, Alex turned back towards Raika and said,
"Next?"
Raika was a great warrior who took pride in his strength and Raijū heritage, looking down on those beneath him as if it was only natural that they were lesser than him. And so, looking at the destruction he had caused without even getting the slightest bit winded, Raika looked back at Alex with a fearless smile, before turning around and fleeing as quickly as possible in his lightning form. Using his senses to follow Raika's retreat, Alex smirked before saying,
"This is probably more than a little overkill for someone like you, but fuck it." He then put his hands together at the base of the palms before slowly pulling them back to his sides while saying,
"KAA,MEEEEEEE-"
Meanwhile Raika had used his speed to already put more than a hundred miles between him and that monster back there, with no intention of stopping since he knew that Alex might be able to catch up to him easily.
"HAA,MEEEEEEE-"
Despite having already put several hundred miles between them at this point, Raika was still going strong even as he was aware that he was pushing himself to the most extreme limits that he could endure. But regardless he still felt as though the reaper was standing right behind, preparing to end his life at any second.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
Giving one final shout, Alex released the built up energy in one powerful blast that destroyed anything in its path, including entire mountains, as it chased its quarry across the planets surface. Within seconds Raika felt a powerful force closing in behind him, prompting him to look behind him to see a mass of energy homing in on him.
"NOOOOOO! NOT LIKE THIS!" He cried out in despair, only to be swallowed by the kamehameha as it continued on its trajectory across the planet.
As this happened Gyokuro finally managed to regain consciousness after her neck healed from the doppelgänger attack, only to be so dumbfounded at what she saw that she even forgot about her nakedness. On one side there was a seemingly never ending hellscape of molten rock that was still cooling, while on another was what appeared to be a massive trench that went on forever through the planet and mountains, both obviously originating from Alex.
Under his foot though was the armless doppelgänger, who was now also covered in burns from the intense flames of Alex's earlier attack, due to him not having Alex's skills despite now having his physical strength and defense. Glancing down at his imposter, Alex snorted and said,
"Normally I would kill you quickly like I did those other two, but you pissed me off by acting like that with my face and body so I think I'll have you suffer a bit." All that responded was a pained groan, as the doppelgänger was already in so much pain from losing his arms and the burns. Alex however ignored this and used his foot to flip the fake over so he was facing up, and then leaned down to pick up a rock the size of a baseball.
With the rock shining slightly as Alex used Creation magic to turn it into an artifact, he then held it over the doppelgänger's chest before saying, "Let's see how long you last with this~." He then dropped the rock, which fell faster than it should have before impacting the fake's chest with enough force that the already exhausted fake screamed. Without giving a backwards glance to the screaming doppelgänger, Alex turned towards Gyokuro and slowly started walking towards her as the rock continued to slowly crush the fake's body, the Gravity magic increasing its weight even until it weighed several tons.
Eventually when Alex stopped directly in front of Gyokuro there was a sickening and gory sounding crunch, and the screaming stopped, leaving the entire planet silent as the only two people left stared at each other. Soon the silence was broken as the kamehameha that Alex fired earlier finished it revolution around the planet, which Alex casually caught with an outstretched hand as the released energy desperately tried to destroy whatever halted its advance. After several seconds though the energy started dying down, before it vanished entirely without Alex ever even looking away from the woman before him. Finally she asked,
"So what do you intend to do to me now? How am I going to die?" Her question brought a small smile to Alex's face as he replied,
"I don't know, but I don't intend to kill you. That'll be too quick and easy an end for someone who's caused as much suffering as you have for the reasons you have, plus there's Kokoa and Kahlua to think about. No, I think I'll have you go on living in a way someone as prideful and arrogant as you can't stand." As he spoke Gyokuro's first thought was that he planned to have her live as a sex slave like the doppelgänger wanted her to, causing her expression to morph into one of fury as she spat in his face and said while cocking her fist back,
"I'd rather die!" Alex smiled wryly as he wiped the spit from his cheek, before using the same hand to catch Gyokuro's punch right before it hit his face. What started after that was a brief struggle as Gyokuro tried one last ditch attempt to defeat Alex, or get him to kill her. What happened instead though, was that Alex used his hold on her fist to get her under his control, before seizing her other fist and pinning them both behind her back. Alex then swept her legs out from under her, making the proud woman fall roughly on her stomach as he kept her arms pinned behind her back.
Being forced into such a position, Gyokuro's mind ran rampant with thoughts of what he was about to do to her now that she was both naked and unable to fight back. she tensed her body for several seconds as she awaited whatever depravity Alex had planned, but it never came. Instead came the whistling of something moving very fast before Gyokuro experienced a sensation that she never expected.
SMACK!
"NOOOOOOOO!" The proud woman cried out, as Alex proceeded to repeatedly spank her as if he was disciplining a child.
***
Meanwhile back on earth, an entire city in Japan was in chaos after being flooded from a sudden tsunami, but that wasn't what caused the chaos. Instead it was the cause of the tsunami, a massive creature that had fallen from the sky and landed in the ocean just offshore. Thankfully an evacuation had been called several hours beforehand, however there were several people who hadn't evacuated and were even taking the chance to loot any businesses that were unguarded at the time.
One such man was trying to haul a tv down the street that had miraculously managed to avoid any water damage from the tsunami, only to hear a steady BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, in the distance. Turning slightly the man saw a massive creature that was as big as a skyscraper seemingly headed right for him. It raised its massive fist, and in a single motion it swept it to destroy several skyscrapers in an instant while a series of massive tentacles from its back spread out as if searching for something.
"Oh shit!" The man cried out as one of the tentacles came directly for him, prompting him to drop the television and start running the other way.
"ShitshitshitshitshitshitSHIT!" He cried out over and over as the sound of the tentacle crashing its way towards him reached him. Naturally the man tripped and fell as he tried to get away, signaling his definitive doom at the monsters hand.
"Please no, I don't want to die!" The man cried out as he closed his eyes, not wanting to see his death approaching, though it never came. Even as several seconds passed the man didn't feel anything, nothing crushing or grabbing him, no pain, nothing. What he noticed next wasn't a feeling, but a voice, the most beautiful and melodious singing the man had ever heard reached his ears, prompting him to slowly open his eyes.
What he saw was a cute petite woman with dark blue hair and a long floral dress, but what truly drew the mans gaze was the pair of beautiful white feathery wings extending from her back. As she slowly approached him the man froze, his heart pounding as he reached the only possible conclusion in this situation, that he had died and was now looking at an angel. As she reached him however, the Angel's song continued even as she spoke with her amazing voice,
"Please go to the evacuation area, it's just ahead. The people there will protect you until the battle is over." This confused the man, as why would evacuate and need protection if he was dead? The girl however continued walking past him after saying her piece, making the man turn before being dumbfounded by what he saw.
The massive tentacle was slamming against what a appeared to an invisible bubble between them, preventing his death and the destruction of the area around him. As he stood transfixed by this scene, the angel then spread her wings and took flight to the top of one of the surrounding buildings, presumedly to fight monster attacking the city. Naturally this would give the man the perfect chance to look up her dress, however he purposely avoided his gaze as he didn't want to disrespect the Angel that saved his life that way.
Eventually the man did turn towards the evacuation area while tears formed in his eyes and choked sobs escaped his throat, while he also cried out, "Grandma, the Angels are real! I swear to turn over a new leaf, I won't waste this life of mine that they saved!"
Meanwhile the 'Angel' that had saved the man, Sun, was standing on top of one of the skyscrapers as she looked towards Alucard with a look of defiance that didn't match her cute appearance. On top of Alucard's head was none other than Miyabi, who was actually a clone of the massive beast that had been created when he was originally defeated three hundred years back. Having already fused with and taken over the main body, Miyabi returned Sun's gaze and said,
"There's a defiant one down there, huh?" Sun's response to this was to hold up the notebook that she used to write in, which had a single sentence in it.
WE, WILL BE YOUR OPPONENTS
At that point Miyabi noticed seven other figures appearing as they ensured the last of the stragglers escaped what was about to become a war zone, a woman with long Crimson hair, a catlike woman with several tails, the silver haired maid that had destroyed their barrier so easily before, a petite girl with silvery blonde hair that gave him an uneasy feeling, a rabbit eared woman with light blue hair, a ponytailed swordswoman with a katana at her side, and girl with short blue hair with the wings and tail of a succubus. Naturally with the revival of Alucard, Miyabi wasn't the least bit concerned, and his only response to their appearance was,
"Oh look, some ants to crush underfoot."
(A.N. Before anyone asks, no double releases are not the new regular)
