As the sword blew Gifu back out, a huge explosion had happened, the sword's ability was simple, it collected kinetic energy and turn into power.
Aaron had let the sword fly all over the world before backshotting Gifu, so currently Gifu's body, soul, essence, every part of him that existed rather in the physical world or spiritual world, even the part of him that resided in the fourth fucking dimension.
All of them were hit with a surge of power so vast, so immense that they could no longer hold on unto their host anymore, the damage was too much.
Gifu could not take it anymore and just like the parasite that he was, Gifu was forcefully ripped away from Olteca's body.
Olteca's body fell on the floor limp, as Gifu's formless shape could be seen floating in the air, writhing in agony.
Everything felt so painful, he felt his soul was being destroyed.
He didnt like that.
However before Gifu could even have the time to reform himself, the temperature all around them dropped to below 0, the temperature around them was so cold that Aaron felt his blood freezing.
However, Gifu unlike Aaron had to suffer the full brunt of the damage, with an ice power so powerful, every single cell, every single ounce of pure corrupted energy that Gifu was made out of was utterly frozen in the ice.
"Hey you got him," Aaron said giving the princess a bloodied smile...
As those words left his mouth, a figure wearing a suit could be seen.
It was cloaked head to toe in a suit that seemed to fuse human form with the pinnacle of cybernetic engineering. The armor gleamed under the fluorescent lights, an imposing blend of white and black that spoke of both elegance and lethal functionality.
Her helmet, a smooth, rounded shell with a pitch-dark visor, concealed her face entirely, giving her an aura of mystery and power. The visor, polished to a mirror-like sheen, reflected the sterile walls around her, creating an alien look that seemed to swallow her identity within the darkness. Only her silhouette, sharp and graceful, hinted at the person beneath.
White armor plating covered her frame like a second skin, each piece molded and segmented to protect without hindering movement. Between the armored plates, the black undersuit hugged her form, flexible yet durable, with synthetic muscle fibers woven through, enhancing both strength and agility. This underlayer allowed her to twist, sprint, and maneuver with a fluidity that belied the heavy-duty protection she wore. The suit was a masterpiece of bio-engineering and technology, built for those who walked the fine line between human and machine.
Along her arms and legs, the armor was intricately detailed with subtle markings, tiny inscriptions in a language or code known only to the engineers who forged it. Small joints and articulation points dotted her elbows and knees, allowing for unrestricted movement even within the rigid framework of her armor. Beneath the cold metal shell, advanced motors and actuators whirred softly, waiting to respond to her every move.
Her legs were reinforced with powerful guards that wrapped around her thighs and shins, flowing into boots designed for both durability and traction. Extending from her thighs were sleek, aerodynamic fins that gave her an almost predatory grace—perfect for stabilizing high-speed maneuvers, or perhaps for gliding silently in free fall. Each detail, from the precision-engineered shoulder plates to the reinforced joints, was crafted to embody the balance between power and agility.
She walked over to him before placing her hand on his chest, the hole that was there just a moment ago was frozen over.
Well at least he wasn't going to die from blood loss, he still had a massive hole in his chest though.
Taking out what the Celestial had given him for this mission, he walked up to the frozen Gifu statue before opening up the seal.
The next second, what seemed to be a series of complex seals could be seen, he gazed at it all, something in his gut could tell him it was sealing Magic of some form.
He watched as 'Gifu's soul was dragged into the seal, the seal shut close as it turned a dark red color, signaling that it was now being inhabited by someone.
Aaron cast one last look at this world, well he had done his job.
He had slain the monster that was terrorizing them.
Taking out a small microphone, he placed his lips to it.
"The one piece..." Before he could finish his words, Miyuki grabbed him by the ears.
"Ow, Ow, Ow...it hurt, "He said as he could feel the strength she had behind her grip.
"You are durable you can take it" Miyuki added.
Her eyes went toward the wounds that he had suffered.
"Idiot"
"Hey, I did what I had to do, not like there was a better plan" Aaron argue but she still looked pissed.
"You almost died, NEVER PLAY WITH YOUR LIFE AGAIN, I WILL FIND YOU AND KILL YOU AGAIN IF YOU DO THAT"
Her voice was cold, even colder than where they were which was saying something considering the place was basically close to absolute zero.
She seemed hurt just a bit.
"Now let's get you healed up," She said dragging him away.
"Wait, I have one last thing to say"
"Make it quick" Her voice came out rather cold.
Meanwhile on the weekend base.
Watching Gifu being defeated felt like a weight being lifted up their shoulder, George on the other had just finished his Boba, and from beginning to end, this man had managed to have him hooked throughout the whole fight.
It was fun to watch the interesting way the anomaly fought someone so much stronger than him.
"Why couldn't she have interfered sooner" Sakura suddenly asked.
"He did not have to get a hole punched through his chest for that" The young girl asked.
She was genuinely quite worried, she was also hopeful, that maybe she could get the chance to apologize.
"Gifu still was in a host, so he could have just flown out," George added sipping his drink.
Still, even if that was true, Aaron did not have to get donuted for it right.
Sakura's gaze went toward the screen, what she saw next broke her heart into a million pieces.
Aaron bowed politely as a soldier would to their king or Queen.
Oh...no, she wished this was not what she thought it was, from the deepest part of herself she truly wished that the words she thought would come out of his mouth were not the ones that would come out of his mouth.
"Your wish is my command"
*Crack*
No one inside the room knew what those words meant apart from her, she remembered when those words were uttered the first time, her eyes flooded with tears.
Wait no, this was not it was going to end.
Immediately upon hearing those words, she dashed outside of the room.
"Sakura!" Ikki said as he saw his sister run toward the battlefield was like her life depended on it.
George could roughly make out what went wrong.
"I wonder if he planned this too" George mutters to himself, although taking Aaron's character he probably thought she hated him and she wouldn't mind.
"So this was the only future you couldn't see" George muttered to himself as he watched the very desperate teenage girl trying to reach him before he got into the portal.
As Sakura dashed there as her life depended on it, memories started playing in her head, a lot of memories....why was she acting like such a dick?
Why did she even slap him, to begin with?
She was truly frustrated with herself and was just trying to reach him in time to at least tell him she didnt hate him.
The words of her dad and mom played in her mind.
She should have listened.....
Before she knew it, she was running at about 100 miles per hour, Her Gifu genetics, now fully awakened were being used for one purpose, to give her more speed.
Pov change
After saying those words, Aaron turn around and walked toward the portal, he could barely hear shit as his eardrums had burst.
Forcing his body to move forward, Aaron made his way to the portal.
He couldn't really break his bond with Ikki and Daiji, but with Sakura at least he was sure she would not get hurt.
He hoped Hana took care of her, he was sure she would be the least affected, after all, she hated him.
He took in a deep breath as he fully entered the portal and as he did so, the portal behind him closed.
About 5 seconds after the portal closed, Sakura had appeared.
Upon watching the portal clothes before her very eyes, she felt herself getting crushed...no...no, this couldn't be the end, forcing herself back up, she rushed to where he lived.
Upon arriving at the house, the house was empty.....there was nothing there.
She fell to her knees...the world around her shattering....wait, no, why?
Later on that day.
Sakura could be seen crying in her mother's arms, everyone in the room could only just watch as she broke down.
"Why...?, Why did he have to leave?"
"....Why was I so mean to him?"
She sobbed and cried, even her inner demon love Kov could be hugging her feet to comfort her... Sakura was currently a mess, she felt like complete shit.
Meanwhile.
Aaron meanwhile was lying down in the healing chamber, his flesh was healing in no time he should be ready for the next world, his Bday was in a couple of days so he wanted to make this world quick.
He wondered what kind of world he would have this time.
He crossed his fingers that it wasn't a world where he would have to face a top 2 race in the multiverse.
He was never fighting an illusionist ever again.
He would rather fight Suel 1 million times over that thing.
Fuck it, he would rather fight Cthulu himself instead of ever going anywhere near that thing, even Azathoth seem like a safe option.
At least with them, he would have a better chance of winning....the negation suit was busted and Azatoth just slept a lot.
Plus he was already mentally insane so he could look at them and be just fine.
He took in a big breath and sighed....he truly hoped life would get better from there.
While he was doing that, however, Abigail was in some trouble, she stood infront of a council of 2 celestial, Michael and Metatron.
"Abigail, are you aware of the weight of your transgression?" Michael's voice resounded like thunder, his tone both stern and solemn.
Abigail met their gaze with unwavering resolve.
"Yes..."
"You defied the sacred code, meddling in mortal affairs," intoned Metatron, his words echoing with a celestial resonance. "You understand the gravity of this sin, do you not?"
"Yes..."
"Do you bear any remorse for the path you have chosen?" Michael asked, his gaze piercing as if to lay bare the depths of her soul.
"I hold no regret," Abigail replied firmly.
"Then may your choice stand under the light of eternity," Metatron declared, his gaze heavy as the weight of stars. "Let us hope it is the righteous one."
.................
Death...just death, a certain part of the galaxy was just covered in black dust of nothing more than just death.
Death was moving, death was moving fast.
.........
Aaron sat on his chair and looked at his destination...a post-apocalyptic world...
"Yay, a vacation..." Aaron said with a smile on his face.
Rui looked at the world filled with death and deadly beast and her brother who was calling it a vacation...her brother may need to get his brain checked.
Aaron looked at the image of the rider in that universe....they looked a bit more savage.
A bit...primal...like a savage beast.
.....
Heh, he would be fine.
Speaking of which, he wondered when George and the other would realize that Justice Man 2.0 and Fat Buu were in a Fenix Ship.
Aaron had sent Miyuki to kill Akaishi but by the time she reached the man, he was already dead, it looked like suicide, and he wondered why the man would kill himself.
A/N...anyway, what yall think of this arc?
Was it better or worse than the Great Arc?
What is the rating of this arc out of 10?
Do you like Aaron's character development or does it feel too rushed?
Did the win feel unearned?
Anyway, since I have school, it's probably going to take me a while to binge-watch Amazon, so it might be a while before the next installment of this series, I am not giving it up, the black man still has some unfinished character arc, still have to work on his chemistry with Miyuki.
And he still hasn't fully accepted himself yet...as long as his mental view of himself is still his child-safe, it means he hasn't healed yet.
Anyway, see you when school gives me my break. I know that if I start season 3 now, I will burn myself out, I hope you guys understand.
Hopefully, I can get the commission for Saya done before then....
