As Ryūsei and the others continue to fought the Corrupted Elementalist, A horrible tragedy occured when Catherine gave up her existence and fought the Corrupted Elementalist till her final moments before she faded away.
Ryūsei was devastated and furious when he saw his future granddaughter faded away, He was helpless..... He couldn't do anything to help... He only could watch her faded away....
The guilt and regret took over as he couldn't control anymore of his emotions... He just saw his granddaughter faded away.... He decided to do the same and he took a huge risked by releasing the Dragon King's Blade even though he still isn't powerful enough to use it effective.
He fought the Corrupted Elementalist till the point he cornered him.... But he was shock to discover something.... The Corrupted Elementalist spoke, He immediately withdraw from the battle and approaches Ryūshi and Jikan.
"It spoke!!!" Ryūshi yelled out as he was still shock on what he just heard. "Yeah it did, His face was also weird" Ryūsei replied. "What do you mean by his face being weird???" Jikan asked. "When we fought earlier I managed to release an energy blast above him, After the smoke cleared out I saw him with half of his face returned to normal, That's when he started talking again" Ryūsei replied.
"You must've damage the gem that corrupted him" Jikan replied. "Still though his body was once again corrupted after a while" Ryūsei said with a sad tone in his voice. "So what's the plan then??? I'm done with this not using my Elemental Art thing" Ryūshi replied.
"We need to destroy the gem that corrupted him in order for the corruption to disappear" Jikan replied. "We only need to destroy it, But we need do it fast" Ryūshi suggested. "The gem is located in his c.h.e.s.t, It's the heart shape one" Jikan added. "We need do it quickly though, We don't know how long Ryūsei can hold in his state right now" Ryūsei replied.
"What do you mean Ryūshi??" Ryūsei asks. "You released the Dragon King's Blade even though you can barely able to maintain it even with your ability active." Ryūshi replied. "Also from the looks of it you just gambled everything when you released the blade, There's no telling what'll happen if you pushed yourself even more further." Ryūshi added.
"It's about time we stop the Corrupted Elementalist" Jikan then slowly stand up. "Woahh, Careful Jikan.... Don't push yourself" Ryūsei concernly said. "It's okay Ryūsei, I'll be fine" Jikan happily smiled. "It's time I redeem myself, This incident took far to longer due to my ignorance and I failed to maintain the timeline causing Catherine to fade away" Jikan added as he stands up.
"Then it's about time we showed him what it means to be a Crowned Dragon" Ryūshi said with a smirk on his face. "Ryūshi, Is there a nearby corpse that wasn't hit with the Time Spheres" Jikan asked. "C-C-Corpse!!!" Ryūsei surprisingly yelled. "There's a nearby one over the other" Ryūshi pointed at a nearby corpse and Jikan walks towards it.
"What's he gonna do with the corpse??" Ryūsei asked. "Well it takes a tremendous amount of mana just to manipulate a single second of time" Ryūshi replied. "Well what's that gonna do with the corpse??" Ryūsei asked once again. "Well take a good look" Ryūshi replied pointing to Jikan.
Jikan then slowly grabs the corpse arm "I'm sorry but I'll have to borrow you for a second" He muttered and a rainbow aura then slowly appeared surrounding Jikan's entire body. The corpse that Jikan's holding slowly starts to decay and after a while it turn into dust.
"Well that should do it" He softly muttered as he then stands up and looks behind seeing Ryūsei with a scared face. "Are you okay Ryūsei?? Look like something must've freak you out" Jikan asked. "T-T-The c-c-corpse.." Ryūsei muttered with a freaking out tone. "Oh I see what's going on" Jikan happily laughed. "Yeah what you saw was me using my ability" He added.
"My ability is known as "Time Stream", It let's me drain the remaining time left in a user's body and either heals my injuries or replenishes my mana" Jikan happily said. "Well then since we're already to go, Let's not waste anymore time" Ryūshi stated out and they quickly follow the direction where the Corrupted Elementalist was going.
They travelled deeper into the forest following a trail of dead animals and plants with them either killed mercilessly or their remaining time was robbed from them. After a while they quickly caught up with the Corrupted Elementalist. Ryūshi quickly rushes above him and kicks him to the ground.
The Corrupted Elementalist quickly gets up and roared causing the nearby birds to quickly fly away, He then focuses a rainbow energy blast in his right hand and aims to at Ryūsei.
"Quantum Dragon Atomic Control" Ryūshi casted a spell and the atoms of the Corrupted Elementalist's right hand turned into dynamite. It quickly explodes causing a tremendous explosion and burning the trees around them.
"Quantum Dragon Atomic Control" Ryūshi casted the spell once again manipulating the air molecules around him creating a tremendous water blast.
The two spells collide creating a tremendous amount of steam around them. Jikan quickly took the opportunity and quickly approaches the Corrupted Elementalist from behind.
Unfortunately the Corrupted Elementalist saw him and he quickly reacted by using his left hand to attack Jikan.
"Time Dragon Continuum Shift" Jikan casted a spell and time sphere surrounded the Corrupted Elementalist causing him to move slower.
With the Corrupted Elementalist moving in slow motion Jikan quickly took out the dagger in his pouch located at his waist and he quickly slashes the Corrupted Elementalist's left arm in a blink of an eye.
The time sphere then quickly disappeared and the Corrupted Elementalist was back to normal. He then quickly turns around glaring at Jikan. Jikan doesn't mind though, He even taunted the Corrupted Elementalist by throwing the dagger up in the air over and over again with a smirk on his face.
The Corrupted Elementalist was confused at first until Jikan pointed at his hand and that's where his hand started fading away turning to nothing but dust.
Before he could even react and look at Jikan once again, Ryūsei quickly punches him in the face knocking him back to the burning trees.
"Meteor Dragon Photon Switch" Ryūsei casted a spell and he quickly teleported to the Corrupted Elementalist. It turns out the minute Ryūsei punches him he quickly marks the Corrupted Elementalist.
Ryūsei quickly teleported above him and he then shouted "Meteor Dragon Collision Crash" Ryūsei casted a spell cause a tremendous release of Meteor Dragon energy around him creating a massive explosion.
The explosion was indeed massive and it was also boosted by a ton due to the fact that Ryūsei's ability was active. The explosion was so massive that it caused an earthquake that the entire village of Llanto was destroyed from the earthquake.
With the explosion over the Corrupted Elementalist was lying on the ground, Ryūsei quickly created a light blade and quickly stabs the left side of the broken heart. But unfortunately the Corrupted Elementalist quickly grabbed Ryūsei's head with the remnants of his left arm.
He then quickly bashes Ryūsei to the ground creating a crater. The Corrupted Elementalist continually bashing Ryūsei at the ground. "Quantum Dragon Atomic Control" Ryūshi casted a spell and he then touches the ground beneath them turning it into water causing the Corrupted Elementalist to loose his foot.
Both Ryūsei and the Corrupted Elementalist fall into the lake that Ryūshi just made, With both of them submerge underwater, Ryūsei manages to free himself from the Corrupted Elementalist and swims upward.
Ryūsei then quickly jumps out of the water and lands near Ryūshi. "Jikan now!!!" Ryūshi yelled. "Time Dragon Continuum Shift" Jikan casted a spell and a time sphere surrounded the entire lake shifting time forward.
The water in the lake slowly started to freeze and after a while the lake was entirely frozen. "What happened?? How did the lake freeze??" Ryūsei curiously asked. "I fast forward time to the point where the water in the lake was frozen during winter season." Jikan replied. "That's good to her-" Ryūsei then fells to the ground in his knees and the white aura surrounding his body slowly starts to disappear.
"Looks like your almost at your limit" Ryūshi pointed out. "Yeah..... but I'm not giving up till that bastard is down" Ryūsei replied but he is extremely exhausted. "I don't care if this'll kill me.... If I stop now..... Catherine's sacrifice..... her existence would all be in vain" Ryūsei added as he slowly stands up. "So until that bastard isn't corrupted anymore... for her sake and for him... I won't go down even if death awaits me" Ryūsei then notices some crack in the ice.
The Corrupted Elementalist angrily emerges from the ice destroying it completely. "Time Dragon Continuum Shift" Jikan casted the spell once again but this time the entire lake, the ice flown into the air and even the Corrupted Elementalist didn't move as like the time was paused around them.
"Quantum Dragon Atomic Control" Ryūshi casted a spell and he then manipulated the atoms around him releasing a tremendous amount of fire and headed towards for the Corruption Elementalist. The fire blast hits the Corrupted Elementalist burning him directly. "We already found his weakness" Ryūshi pointed out and Jikan slowly approaches them.
"What do you mean by weakness" Ryūsei asked. "Haven't you notice how he took out Yuki, Sora and Kasai" Jikan replied. "He quickly took out your friend Kasai because he's a fire-based Elementalist." Ryūshi replied. "The Corrupted Elementalist's healing is based on cell heal, And since Kasai was a fire-based Elementalist, Once he incinerated the cells they won't be able to regenerate anymore, That's why he took out Kasai." Ryūshi added.
"The same goes for Yuki, Yuki is an ice-based Elementalist, When cells freeze it too can affect his cellular healing." Jikan added. "But even though we know his biggest weakness, The only way to beat him is to destroy the jewel in his c.h.e.s.t" Jikan pointed out pointing to the Corrupted Elementalist.
"Looks like I only got a minute left" Ryūsei pointed out with a smirk on his face. "Then let's end it once and for all" Ryūshi replied. "You with me on this Jikan??" Ryūshi added. "Yeah" Jikan replied.
The Corrupted Elementalist then released a beacon of rainbow light around him draining the time of the nearby living things. "Looks like he's planning to do the same" Jikan pointed out and a ray of rainbow light was fired at them but luckily they all manage to dodge it.
"I've already stabbed the left side of the heart, We only need to destroy the right part" Ryūsei pointed out. "Ryūsei, You'll take the front, I'll support you all the way" Ryūshi replied.
Ryūsei then quickly approaches the Corrupted Elementalist holding the Dragon King's Blade in his right hand while Ryūshi was following him from behind casting counter spells whenever the Corrupted Elementalist released a tremendous amount of energy.
The Corrupted Elementalist kept releasing a ray of energy from his mouth making it harder for Ryūsei to approach him. "Ryūsei just keep running" Ryūshi yelled. "Quantum Dragon Atomic Control" Ryūsei casted a spell and manipulated the atoms around him causing him to remove the Corrupted Elementalist's mouth changing it to nothing but thin air.
With his mouth removed it made it easier for Ryūsei to approach him. Ryūsei then manages to get in front of him ready to deliver the final blow. He was about to pierced the blade through the jewel but unfortunately Ryūsei manages to reach his limits and the drawback of his gamble occured causing it for him to hardly move.
The Corrupted Elementalist quickly took the opportunity to attack Ryūsei using his left hand and he was about to attack and this time Ryūsei couldn't dodge the attack.
Ryūsei cursed himself as why now, Why would he had to experience the drawback at this crucial moment, As the Corrupted Elementalist was about to hit Ryūsei, The Corrupted Elementalist was cut off by a dagger that was thrown.
"Do it Ryūsei!!!! Do it!!!!!" Jikan yelled "Time Dragon Continuum Shift" Jikan casted the spell once again and this time he casted it on Ryūsei, Manipulating time around him making him move again by resetting him back a few seconds before the drawback occurred. "Do it Ryūsei!!!!!" Ryūshi yelled. With all of his might Ryūsei pierced the Dragon King's Blade at the right side of the Corrupted Elementalist.
