Everyone was worried about the situation in which the battle was, they began to analyze what should be done to find a way to get Shiko back from himself.
-Asuka: I-I don't understand... How did this happen?
-Light: Shiko tried to push his limits beyond what his body was capable of and by necessity his power has exploded causing it to awaken his beast form, but because he is not even used to handling a small fraction of his powers well, I am sure he has completely lost his mind.
-Tetsu: We must find a way to be able to suppress him...
As the young people filled with dread thought about the situation, the out-of-control Shiko, who was now a dragon, began to spit huge beams of random power through the sky, while Dreik, who was injured, tried to dodge so as not to have more serious damage. Trying to stop his opponent, Dreik launched a huge beam loaded with pure magic to try to knock out his opponent, but when he saw his enemy execute such a technique, he had time to react to use an equally powerful attack, causing there to be another clash of powers between both attacks.
While this battle was going on, almost on the peak of the mountain of the island were three mysterious hooded men, who limited themselves only to observing what happened, one of them being the man with a moon on his forehead who saved the young people from death in the battle against Ghosty. The appearance of the other two mysterious men was indistinguishable, unlike that one of them had a star as a symbol on his forehead and the other a sun.
-Lunar Man: This has been an unexpected result that the trio of fools have not been able to handle, I really did not expect that they would try to dedicate themselves to training the "chosen one".
-Star man: Don't even think about trying to interfere, this is what they have decided to do so now just see how far this can go. See, their stupidity has led them into a battle filled with two noisy and stupid dragons.
-Lunar Man: This only gives me indications of having to intrude and that they give up my turn to train the boy properly.
-Solar Man: There's no point, your little brother doesn't intend to allow you to interfere as a punishment for that group of children. After all, I think that for there to be fun, there must be some chaos haha... Those young people are growing up in their own way.
Meanwhile, the fierce combat between the two dragons continued... Dreik with great concern, could only think of giving physical attacks against his out-of-control enemy, so he made an attempt to approach him to hurt him with his powerful claws - At this moment, I am turned into a huge beast, I am sure that with my current strength if I manage to land a good direct blow to a weak point, I'm capable of knocking him out - were the words spoken by the young man, but to his misfortune, as his enemy approached by instinct he attacked physically, hitting a huge impact with one of his paws towards the sentient dragon "It can't be, he hit me instinctively when I approached!" ahg... even so, being this close to him, I can't give up, if I don't retreat, I'm also able to hit him with attacks- very enraged, he filled one of his paws with magic to enhance his attack and thus, land a direct blow to Shiko's head, who directly received such an attack. When hurt, the uncontrollable dragon let out a huge roar of pain - Dreik, please try to find another way, you're hurting Shiko more than necessary and this can lead to something even worse! – Asuka shouted with all her might, with a feeling full of fear and concern. As Dreik listened to the young woman's words, his enemy who was very enraged, filled one of his front legs with magic again with the difference that this time, you could tell with the eye that such a part of his body was very hardened, changing to a silver color and full of scales that seemed indestructible.
-Tetsu: It can't be... He used steel powers like mine and did it unconsciously!
-Light: This is bad, if you use our powers without knowing how to handle them, you can cause too many catastrophes.
-Dreik: The only thing left for me to do is try to bait his attacks and get him to keep his attention on me...
The crazed dragon, without letting his opponent think any longer, rushed at him, attacking him with his steel-covered claws, trying to bury them in his opponent's chest mercilessly. The latter, who could barely foresee the attack, was left with superficial wounds when dodging the attack, being pink only by the movement of his opponent -I have no other option... I'm going to use everything I have left. Dreik uttered in a moment of desperation, making a huge monster formed from the entire ocean that surrounded the ocean shore, it rose as if it had a life of its own and with great speed, it transformed into a type of rope that tied the entire body of the dragon uncontrollably preventing it from moving and while it was very enraged struggling to be able to free itself, His opponent gathered a huge amount of magic in his tail and made a maneuver in the air flying, to take enough momentum and execute an attack with enough power to knock out his opponent. Unfortunately, Shiko's insistence was too much, and he was able to free himself from his trap, barely dodging Dreik's attack, which hit one of his arms leaving this dragon's limb very injured.
-Asuka: To all this... I wondered what happened to Shiko's sword.
-Light: Why do you care about her?
-Asuka: His sword is supposed to be special for fighting monsters, I wonder... If someone here can use an attack with it, perhaps they can neutralize him in some way.
-Tetsu: The sword has disappeared... at the moment of the impact of the attacks, while Shiko was struggling to avoid being hit with his sword, it was subjected to too much pressure and was destroyed so that Shiko was able to stop the impact with the explosion of his magic released when transforming.
-Asuka: Damn it... this is getting worse and worse...
As the continued to think about their tactic to stop the young man without his own will, he continued to rage attacking his rival. To Dreik's bad luck, Shiko in his next move used his shadow powers, so from his mouth he spat out many shadow balls created from his magic being fast enough and too many that his opponent could not dodge them all, being damaged by several of them and leaving him weaker. Very tired, Dreik was left alone watching his very tired opponent, to which he decided to fly towards the sea until he submerged with the idea of using all the seawater necessary to restore his wounds. His strategy could work to have enough forces to continue, but being out of sight of his opponent, he made him continue to attack madly on either side, so, when he had contact with the place where his companions were, he began to charge an attack aimed at them.
When he was about to use it, very quickly, many gusts of water appeared from the sea with enormous pressure and speed, as if they were bullets, hitting Shiko due to the very unexpected attack. After being hit by so many, Dreik came out of the sea again - Aqua Bullet! – he shouted as he quickly left the sea. Shiko, who was still out of control, was very hurt by the attack, but even without surrendering, he rushed at his enemy, at the moment, the water impacts created a momentary rain due to the amount of water used in the attack, causing him to regenerate with the water at the same time as attacking his opponent, which received the blow of the enraged dragon directly to the face.
Dreik had restored his wounds, but his tiredness was inevitable, the battle had forced him to spend too much magic, so he gradually weakened, so very tired, he continued to use his "Aqua Bullet" attack to counter the movements of his enemy. When he was cornered by the number of attacks from the enemy, he made a huge roar, from which a huge magical aura came out covered with multiple beams which neutralized each ball of water. His opponent's attack was suppressed, but he, like Dreik, was beginning to show signs of fatigue from the hard battle.
-Dreik: It can't be! This time it was Light's lightning ability...
-Shiko: No... I don't understand... I'm... struggling? I don't understand what's going on... but...
-Asuka: Shiko! Shiko is talking! Shiko, if you can hear me, please stop, they can avoid getting hurt anymore so please stop fighting now!
-Shiko: I don't understand... but... I must win!!
-Tetsu: It's impossible to reason with him, he loses more and more control of his power.
-Light: Be careful Dreik, he seems to be planning an unstoppable attack!
It was then that Shiko began to prepare what seemed like his last attack, charging as much magic as possible into his mouth to launch a huge bolt of it. Dreik, observing their movement, began to use the same technique as a last resort, so once both had their attack sufficiently prepared, they launched a huge lightning bolt which hit each other without being able to see which of the two had more power.
-Light: Tetsu, that explosion if it proceeds further can impact us!
-Tetsu: I know, I have no choice but to use my barrier!
-Asuka: A barrier? You mean you plan to lock us up and leave Shiko and Dreik there!?
Without listening to Asuka, Tetsu put his hands on the surface of the island and from the edge of it, he summoned a huge barrier made of steel which encompassed a large part of the island. Meanwhile, the two dragons continued to struggle until, from the center of the clash, there was an explosion due to the power of the attack, causing the two dragons to be injured by the impact. In the distance, the trio of mysterious men continued to watch, with the lunar man being the one who was restless and worried about the situation.
-Lunar Man: Enough has been enough, without a doubt that clash of attacks has left both of you severely injured, I must go and stop this immediately.
-Star Man: Stop! If you dare to move from here, I'm going to stop you myself!
-Lunar man: What the hell are you saying? This situation is extremely dangerous!
-Solar Man: I take the side of the little star... hehe, I'm sorry, but this matter has become serious because of the stubbornness of those kids, if they had left the job to us from the beginning, none of this would have happened.
-Star Man: The three of us will stay here at all costs, regardless of the situation.
-Solar man: Hahahaha! This is getting more and more interesting... fate knows what it is doing.
After the explosion, both dragons were watching each other, exhausted by the fierce battle they have been waging so far. Tetsu decided to revoke the metal barrier to observe the condition of both dragons. Instantly, Shiko made another roar which contained another huge amount of lightning. Without having the energy to avoid the attack, Dreik received the attack and was totally paralyzed when he was hit by it. Then with the little energy left, the uncontrolled dragon charged another ball of energy from its mouth to finish off its opponent. Asuka, tired and fed up with the situation, began firing multiple bursts of magic at Shiko to get Shiko's attention. Once they hit the dragon, it stopped its attack and turned very angrily towards the direction of the young woman.
-Asuka: Shikoooooo! Stop at once! A pointless battle has been fought, what you do is pointless, you are totally out of control and tired, you don't have to keep fighting! So... please... stop...
-Shiko: A…su…ka…
-Tetsu: He stopped! Shiko has reacted!
-Light: Asuka, you have definitely done something crazy! But it works, keep talking!
-Dreik: I plan to use this time to regain strength...
-Light: Asuka, I must warn you, even if Shiko becomes aware we must knock him out because he does not know the way to recover his original form.
-Asuka: Shiko... please come back with me... it's time for you to come back here and rest, yes...?
"Without a doubt... that voice is Asuka's, the girl who has accompanied me since I have been in this world... she wants me to be well... What have I been doing? Asuka... must... I must show you that I am strong... sorry for worrying, I... I don't want you to cry" were the thoughts that passed through the young man who barely showed signs of control - He is regaining consciousness, what joy it gives me! – Asuka exclaimed while crying very relieved.
To be continued...
