Bab 183: Warcloud
"Hah... Hah..."
Covered from head to toe in blood and bruises , Grim's injury riddled body slumped against the wall of a destroyed house.
"Ughhh." He grunted raising his head up to look at just how far Princia had sent him flying.
'Damn.'
Touching the large gash running down from his chest to his torso, his entire body tensed up from the pain as he tilted his head back and went-
'Fuuuuck that hurts.'
He winced as the memory of Princia's sword tearing through his flesh replayed itself through his mind.
*Smiles*
'So this is the level of a wizard king... Its even better than I imagined!'
Grabbing hold of the broken sword laying beside him, he struggled to his feet as another rush of blood spurted out of his mouth.
"Hah...Hah..." He clutched his chest and grinned. 'Yeah, if you weren't at least this strong then this wouldn't be fun.'
As if sensing his actions, Princia's figure started coming into focus in the distance.
Walking between the broken houses and burning ground, the sound of her armoured footsteps echoed out aloud.
"Heh!" She grinned upon seeing him standing.
"Heh." He laughed back.
Wiping the blood away from his mouth, the mana in his body began vibrating with excitement as a crazed smile crawled onto his face.
"Haha...Haha...Hahahahahahahahahahhahahaha-
ROUND 2!" He yelled unleashing an ungodly amount of energy and summoning out another Storm Blade.
*BOOM!!*
Exploding out with an unimaginable amount of mana, both the air and mana in the area began vibrating as his grimoire started pulsing with an ominous black light as its pages started flipping at a worrying speed.
Feeling an itching sensation creep up on the surface of his skin, more and more black storm clouds began condensing around him and obscuring his figure.
"Princia Funnybunny." A deep voice resonated out from within the dark clouds.
*Step*
"You're good."
*Step*
"Worthy of taking on the full power of the storm."
*Step*
"Now I hope you're ready for me."
*Step*
"Because from this moment onwards."
*Step*
"I WON'T BE HOLDING BACK!!"
"What the-"
Speed blitzing the former wizard king and appearing in front of her with a fist wrapped in a chain of extreme lightning. He pulled his arm back and with a grin spread across his face, he burried it deep into her gut and unleash the power within.
*BANG!!*
*BANG!!*
*BANG!!*
Sent flying backwards and crashing through the same set of buildings that she had sent him through earlier, Princia dug her heels into the ground and gripped her stomach as she forcibly came to a stop and dropped down to one knee.
"Hah Hah Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha." Having feeling the wind being knocked out of her for the first time in years, the pink haired wizard king couldn't help but revel in the feeling as she through her head back and laughed in delight.
Walking through the wreckage that he had just created, Grim's figure could finally be seen. Walking out from the black clouds that desperately tried to cling to his body, the dark storm clouds that had once obscured his figure had actually solidified itself and grafted itself onto his outfit. Fitting itself onto him in the form of a hooded black light armour with various lightning like patterns spread all over it. He walked towards the distant wizard king oozing nothing but pure, undeniable arrogance.
[Breath of the Storm: 12th Form - Warcloud Armour]
*SWOOSH!!*
"Ughhh!!"
Raising her hands to protect her face from the torrents of dark winds rushing out of Grim's body, the insane amount of pressure he was emiting just by standing there left her feeling both confused and full of expectations.
"SO THAT'S HOW IT IS!!" She laughed feeling her own body slowly being pushed back.
"MORE!!" She growled. "SHOW ME MORE!!!"
[Legion Magic: Endless Domination]
Losing herself in the throes of battle, her grimoire responded to this abrupt level of stimulation as it flipped to a specific page and manifested another circular chest board followed by an army of magic soldiers manifesting besides her. By sheer numbers alone, there was enough soldiers here to wipe out an entire magic knight squad.
But not even a second after they had been summoned, a black tornado filled with vicious swirls of lightning ripped through the entire legion, tearing the metal warriors to shreds and blowing whatever was left away.
Lowering his arm, the page in which Grim's grimoire had landed on spelled out the words [Breath of the Storm: Second Form - Dark Tempest].
As for what happened next, no words needed to be said.
Seeing the wisps of black wind dissipating from his lowered hand, Princia's fighting spirit was ignited as the two armoured warriors simultaneously pulled back slightly before turning into blurs and slamming into each other.
*BOOM!!*
*TING!!* *TING!!* *TING!!*
Deflecting her sword and dodging when necessary, Grim saw the edge of her blade closing in on his face.
*BANG!!*
Holding the sword in a reverse grip and raising it up high, he blocked the strike with his left hand while dark winds and lightning surged in his right.
[Dark Tempest]
*BOOM!!*
Thrusting it forward and releasing all that pent up magical energy at once, a cascade of dark wind slammed into Princia's abdomen for the second time today as all the air in her body was forced out and she was thrown backwards with enough force to make the air whistle.
But to make matters even worse, Grim didn't let her go as he chased her down with [Storm Chaser]. Compressing and detonating a large amount of dark wind beneath his feet, he stomped down hard and rocketed high into the air.
[Heavens Fall]
Holding the Storm Blade in a spear-like fashion, the sword crackled with yellow lightning as he cocked his arm back and used [Hyper Focus] to lock onto the moving Princia who still hadn't recovered from getting hit with a point blank [Dark Tempest].
'Got you!' He grinned.
*BOOM!!*
Feeling the power of the storm rage throughout his entire body, Grim didn't hesitate to put that power to good use as he felt the sword leave his hand with enough force to easily surpass the speed of light and shatter the sound barrier while leaving a long trail of lightning behind.

-Princia Pov-
After being hit by that point blank [Dark Tempest] and now finding herself closing in on the centre of the capital, Princia had to admit that she was having the time of her life with boy.
His strength, speed, attitude, it was all perfect!
If there had been someone like him around during her reign... How glorious would that have been?
She could imagine it now, the two of them standing side by side fighting off the soldiers of the Diamond Kingdom and protecting their homeland together. What a life that would have been.
Unfortunately reality is often disappointing.
Seeing a yellow twinkle suddenly appear in the sky directly above her, a single thought crossed through her mind.
'What a pretty star...'
And then it descended on her.
