บท 66: Chapter 66 The Witch and the Monster
POV Max
I flew from the city of vale with the information I but it was info Salem's castle was where I suspected the dragon continent Pandora.
(A/N We still don't know the official name of the dragon container in cannon RWBY)
As soon as I was over the ocean I transformed fully into [Valstrax] and blasted off full speed breaking the sound barrier along the way but my speed didn't affect my sight as I scanned the land looking for the dark castle.
[Blue Eyes] was arrogant and proud [Kong] was stubborn and straightforward but has great perception but [Valstrax] is a predator a hunter looking for its prey and focused only on that, as I scanned the terrain below I noticed the moving black and white spots moving below.
'Has Salem called back her minions or are they moving because of me?' but I didn't mind either option, 'either way more rewards for me' I used [Monsters Roar] increasing my speed heading further into the continent. After an hour of searching, I found my target a huge crystal structure in the middle of a wasteland covered in Grimm.
Transforming my wings I blast the crystal tower with dragon energy only for my blasts to be blocked by an invisible barrier.
*SKRRAAA*
Suddenly a flock of Nevermore big and small rush into me they claw and peck at my metallic scales, I lash out my tail, clawed wings, and fangs but for every one I kill ten more take their place.
"Get the hell off!"
Transformation
[Valstrax] - - - -> [Pyronite]
I unleash flames around me disintegrating all the Grimm around me and become a second sun for a brief moment before gravity starts to pull me down.
"Crap never learned how to fly" as I fall and see the gnashing bone maws of thousands of Grimm I point my arms down and unleash slowing down my fall and clearing my landing area.
"Note to self-practice with Heatblast" Glancing around I'm surrounded by who knows how many Grimm who can't get past my flames moving back with a whimper every time they touch it.
"Well, why not start right now?" I clench my fists turning both into miniature suns the temperature around me rises, I feel the ground begin to melt but then I stop and shake my head.
"No that's the Pyronite talking let's finish the Scenario and go home," I walk towards the crystal tower blasting a path forward through the Grimm that stay in my way. Once I reach the shield I [Teleport] inside with [Enderman] and then transform into [XLR8] speeding through the crystal tower well for the first and second floors.
Busting through another large double door I come face to face with a blade's edge down as it clashed with my skull sparks come off as I run past and turn to find a stone statue of a knight but where eyes would be there we're glowing orbs.

looking around more and more possessed statues came into the room some held spears, maces, axes, and swords of different sizes they surrounded me in the circular room. Now obviously, they were being directedly controlled by Salem as I observed their behavior
????: "Mmm what are you?" the feminine voice came from all the possessed statues at once sounding like an echo "Such a strange creature."
"Considering what you creature with that black goop outside ill take that as a compliment" there was a moment of silence then a *chuckle* echoed through the room.
Salem: "So you know of me who are you and why have you come here."
"My name is Max and I'm here to kill you" for a long moment there was silence then laughter from the many Grimm that sounded me all that could be heard was bone-chilling laughter.
Salem: "Hahaha, another foolish champion sent by my dear to face his cruel past with nothing but half-truths and lies" the laughter continued.
"I'm not some pawn of Ozma Princess in the tower" the laughter stopped deafening silence filled the room "Did I say something wrong, princess" then like the gravity of the room seemed to increase tremendously and the color of the room turn dark purple.

"HOLY SHIT!"
Transformation
[XLR8] - - - -> [Storm Dragon]
•Draconic aura (active)- here be a dragon
-All beings shall instinctively be cautious of you
- Weaker enemies shall be frightened of you
-Stronger beings will think twice before challenging you
The [Dark aura] and [Draconic aura] skills clash as the color of the room is suddenly split-half dark blue and half dark purple sparks of blue and black energy clash in the air.
'Note to self [XLR8] ks like all speedsters can't shut their mouths' I change into my human form with [Dimond armor] and my two swords equipped walking past the Grimm that is stuck thanks to the effects of the two clashing auras.
After a while, I found what I was looking for a large room with a large glowing purple table with three empty chairs on each side at the end of the table sat in a black chair was the queen of the Grimm herself.

For a moment we just stared at each other analyzing each other our auras still clashed now far more intensely, we were now in the same room cracks in the building and windows started to appear but neither of us commented on it.
Salem: "Why kill me?" that was the last thing I expected to hear.
"what do you mean why?"
Salem: "You say you know us I and Ozma are stories well why kill me and not him or even the brother gods since you claim to be able to stop immortals" her voice was unreadable but I decided to indulge in this unexpected conversation.
"Well the brother gods were not on the table but I would definitely go and kick those two shitheads' asses for what they did" Salem smiled at my comment.
"As for Ozma as much of a piece of shit he is, he's surrounded by a city and school filled with civilians so killing him would definitely cause collateral damage "she just nodded her head at that "and he might be a soul parasite and body snatcher but his goal of uniting humanity is a good thing"
"While you control the creatures of darkness the enemies of mankind the Grimm who slaughter and kill who knows how many people every day and most likely are do so right now as we speak" she simply smirked and stood from her seat.
Salem: "So what shall it be this time a powerful semblance, a new weapon, or some creative strategy never thought of before" her voice was filled with sarcasm with some curiosity.
"Nothing of the sort" I activate my [Duel Disk] and selecting my new deck "I'll end you by us playing a game for keeps so Salem are you ready to play a shadow game!"
[User has issued a Shadow game Challenge]
[Waiting for challenger response]
"Hmm such strange magic I can't wait to study it after you are dead" then in a burst as if shedding her skin she transformed growing wings and horns the her aura doubled fighting against my own. "let's play this game boy"
