Chapter 39 - The Battle Heats Up! Desmond's True Strength!

Ajax arrives just in time to save Ishida against Nagama and commands Rumi and Ishida to go after Poka allowing him to fight Nagama alone once again. However up north Ryizen interrupts the fight between the remaining strongest as he,Desmond, Lipo, and Jexan continue the battle!

Jexan grunts as Desmond ducks under his strike and cuts his chestplate.

"The deadhead is a real pain. He's constantly attacking no matter what I send his way." Jexan mumbles as he jumps back. 

While Ryizen and Lipo exchange swords, neither getting the upper hand. 

"You guys weren't lying, you guys are the strongest I've seen so far." Ryizen says.

"Shut up and watch your surrounding idiot Sword Arts: Mud Tsunami." Jexan says interfering as a mud tsunami summons as he slashes his sword at the two.

"Damn, so he's a charm user huh? Figured as much! Cursed Sword Arts: Cursed Concentration Cut!" Ryizen grins before cutting the mud tsunami in half as it splashes over and around him.

"What? He just cut through that with that much precision?" Jexan gasps. 

"Oh I'm liking this guy a lot!" Desmond says behind Ryizen.

Ryizen barely turns around in time and blocks Desmond's strike. 

"Jeez can't take my eye off anyone huh?" Ryizen says through gritted teeth.

"Bet that ass you can't. Listen lil man I get sooo worked up while fighting so you're gonna help with it my dawg." Desmond chuckles and flips back. 

"What the hell is he talking about? And why is he talking like that? It's like broken English." Ryizen grumbles. 

"These guys are insanely strong. I'm just barely keeping up. But this is going exactly to plan." Lipo says to himself.

"Hey you little shit listen I know you can hear me blud!" Desmond yells pointing his dagger at Ryizen.

"What are you even talking about! I'm not your "blud" and what the hell does that even mean!?" Ryizen yells back. 

"That's enough talk. It seems none of us are taking this quite seriously yet. Let's change that shall we? Lipo says, stepping forward as water begins to circulate around his sword. 

"Wait a second that charm DeSoton had that charm there can't be two of them!" Ryizen says. 

"DeSoton? You mean that wannabe tough guy? You knew him?" Jexan asks. 

"Oh yeah decapitator DeSoton that trash bag I forgot all about his wack self. Wonder what he's up to." Desmond says yawning at the name DeSoton.

"It's simple, I killed him, and took his water charm. It was in the wrong person anyways." Lipo simply says. 

"You killed Decapitator DeSoton?" Ryizen says surprised.

"Well it's a half lie but I won't tell them that I didn't kill DeSoton." Lipo thinks to himself.

"Indeed I did kill him. After all he was a civilian wrecker, a person who slaughtered harmless people to get what he wanted." Lipo retorts.

"Man fuck allat!" Desmond charges at Lipo. 

"Can't even finish an explanation with you freak! Sword Arts: Water pistol!" Lipo groans as he lifts his sword and it fires concentrated water bullets at Desmond who slips through and dodges them.

"Fine then let's continue shall we? Cursed Sword Arts: Cursed Bull Horn!" Ryizen yells as he barrels at Jexan.

"Sword Arts: Mud Wall." Jexan says as he stabs the ground lifts up into a wall and Ryizen crashes into it. 

"Gotta try harder than that lil bro!" Desmond yells at Lipo as he cuts across his face. 

"Gahh you bastard!" Lipo stumbles back.

Ryizen dislodges himself from the mud wall. 

"Now is my chance." He mummers.

"Cursed Sword Arts: Cursed Triangle cut!" Ryizen yells, shaping a triangle of cuts towards Lipo only for Desmond to stand in front and block the attack.

"What the? I was surely a goner. If he let that go through, why would he let me live?" Lipo sighs.

"Fuck. Mannnnn that shit hurts. But c'mon now gang. You didn't expect me to seriously let you steal my kill did you? So wait you're turn like a good boy!" Desmond glares as he launches his dagger at Ryizen. 

Ryizen barely ducks out of the way before a mud hammer slams down into him.

"Your nonsense is pissing me off. You say he is going to steal your kill yet you threw your weapon at him trying to steal mine. It's backwards logic." Jexan says the mud hammer disappears over Ryizen.

"Oh don't get all logical with me. We all know that rule applies to everyone but me bruh." Desmond says deadpanning. 

"Oh this guy only saved me so he could kill me himself!" Lipo says hurt by the action.

"It doesn't matter he's dead now. The idiot took his eye off me and I ended him now I'll end you two." Jexan says. 

"Man, you gotta give me more credit than that." Ryizen calls out as he climbs out the hole in the ground.

"Oh my fucking God I love this dude! He's so durable it's gonna me soooooo fucking happy when he's dead!" Desmond gleams like a kid in a candy store. 

"Nows my chance Sword Arts: Water hurricane!" Lipo says stabbing the ground as water shoots out the ground sending the three into the air. 

"What the hell kinda hurricane is this?!" Desmond yells out. 

"Oh you'll see but now you're all lined up perfectly." Lipo says as he aims his sword at the group. 

"Perfectly for what?" Ryizen says from behind Lipo.

"What? How is that possible?! I could have sworn I sent them all flying. Did he get behind me beforehand?" Lipo slightly turns around panicking.

"I learnt this technique a couple hours ago and thought it'd be the perfect time to use it." Ryizen grins.

"Curse Sword Arts: Viper Cut." Ryizen says as he twirls and cuts around Lipo in a blur and Jexan falls towards the ground.

"Poor guy, he's getting cut into shreds." Jexan says, eyes widening.

Ryizen suddenly stops and the dust begins to settle. 

"What the? What's going on here?" Ryizen yells as Lipo is a cocoon made of what looks to be tree wood. 

"How many times I gotta tell you dawg. I saw him first so he's gonna die by my hands. It seems you don't completely understand who you're up against huh Ryizen Habimara?" Desmond coldly chuckles as he lands on the ground.

"You're kidding. So this entire time you've- you've have a charm as well!" Ryizen says, stepping back.

"That's right, gang. I usually hold back and enjoy the fight but it seemed I had to take drastic measures to make sure you didn't kill my boy." Desmond chuckles.

"So the rumors are true. Desmond Vale the Chaotic Crashout. With the wood style charm." Jexan says through gritted teeth as more wood begins to summon around Desmond as he chuckles maniacally.
