Chapter 187 - Conclusion

Charging forward with two swords in hand, Jason was moving faster compare before and when he was just about five meters away from the possessed, he let out a slash which created an x sign lightning arc that went after the possessed who took a step backward before pushing a black mist towards the lightning that was heading his way but just as he was about to launch an attack at Jason, he saw someone appearing behind him.

Taking the opportunity that has presented itself before him, Austin said in a deep voice.

"Windless slash"

After altering those words, Austin Lifted his sword which seems normal as it lack any speed but the moment it begin to come down, the movement of the sword became unpredictable as it landed on the possessed but the attack didn't just end there as more attack begins to hit him from a different angle. 

The attack doesn't seem to be strong but there seen be no end to it as Austin's hand was just moving no stop with the possessed screaming in pain.

"Enough with all this nonsense" yell the possessed as he let out a shockwave from his body which pushed Austin back and it was only then that he stopped.

Just as the possessed was about to go after Austin, lightning fell from the sky and struck him down.

"With the power of my attack I believe I should be rank higher than Austin" said Dragic.

"What rank are you talking about, I have yet to land an attack on him and you people are already claiming your spot" reply, Jason.

"How can you be in the lead when you only threw two attacks on him while I did more than twenty" said Austin.

"It is indeed much but not effective like my attack" replied Dragic with a chuckle.

"It doesn't matter, the rule of the bet says more hit and not how effective the attack is" said Austin.

All this while that they were arguing about who was to at the top, the possessed was already annoyed that he's been used for fun and couldn't help but let out a roar before smacking Austin who was in the middle of an argument with Dragic and was sent flying backward while throwing up a mouthful of blood as he was trying to get up.

"This is your punishment for underestimating your opponent" yelled the possessed as he swing the blade down while trying to cut him down but before the sword could fall on him, Austin lifted his sword to interfere with the attack, and the moment the two swords collide, Austin his body being pressed down a little from the force which came with the blow as he let out another mouthful of blood.

Lifting the sword once more to deliver another blow, but that is when he felt a lightning strike coming from behind and he had to get out of the way before he get hit.

"I'm your opponent now" said Jason in a deep voice as he went forward before slashing his sword at the possessed as he was trying to defend himself against the lightning strike, Jason suddenly appeared behind him before another lightning strike which the possessed could not avoid and was struck from both sides.

Then came another bolt of lightning coming from the sky that fell on him as he let out another painful scream. Seeing that the possessed is been distracted, Austin took the time to pop a pill on his mouth to his wound before picking his sword up and joining the battle. 

"How are you feeling" asked Jason seeing that Austin has also joined the battle.

"Much better" Austin replied before lifting his sword a little higher and muttering with his eyes closed.

"Thousand swords cry" 

Energy swords begin to appear in the sky and unlike before when they look to be made out of energy, the thousand of swords that is before them is has already materialized into a real sword, and seeing this, Jason couldn't help but turn to Austin with a shocking look on his face as he asked.

"I never knew that you have improved the technique to such level" said Jason.

"Haha, It was all thanks to grand elder help that I was able to advance this much and besides I plan on using the attack on you when we had our spar but who would have thought that I will be using it here" reply Austin with a sigh. 

"Is it not a bad thing that you are using it here Austin instead of using it on a spar?" said Jason with a frown when hearing Austin complaining about using the technique here.

"I prefer I used it on you first during our spar" he replied in dejection before swinging his sword down and all thousand swords that have been hovering in the sky begin to fall down on the possessed who tried to fend off the attack.

And the moment he tries to pary one of the attacks more would but attacking for the other sides which makes it difficult for him to avoid getting injuries. And seeing the possessed is completely occupied by Austin, Jason begins to draw some line in the air as has a lightning sword begin to materialize before him and he places his hand on the sword handle before pushing off from the ground before slashing the sword down on the possessed as another gigantic sword appear above the possessed and begin to fall down on him while he was still defending himself against the sword attack. 

The possessed was defending himself from the sword's attack when the gigantic sword fell on him as begin to scream in pain why is body begin to reduce just like how the possessed they fought in the ruin. Seeing that they both are delivering more attacks than him, Dragic took in a deep breath as his stomach begin to expand before breathing out as a huge lightning ball fell from the sky before smacking down on the possessed.

Was already in pain when Austin attacked him before Jason intervein and now Dragic who seen to be the strongest of them all has attacked him also, the possessed couldn't handle all the attacks and his body begin to disintegrate.

"You are all lucky that I was not able to reach my peak else I would have dealt with you all with just a snap of my finger" said the possessed as he continued to disintegrate.

"That is what you have been saying since the beginning of our fight and you calm to be strongest in the world that the lightning emperor has to scheme against you" reply Jason.

"That's all because you have the faith lamp with you else you all won't be a match for me" said the possessed.

"That's right we do have the faith lamp with us" reply just as he just remembered that they do have the faith lamp with them and he decided to take Diana out of the storage ring. 

When Diana was let out of the storage ring, she has already gained consciousness and just laying on the ground.

"What happened" asked Diana as she looked ahead of her where she could see the possessed reducing in size.

"Oh, look who's awake" said Austin with a smile.

"Do you think you can still use the faith lamp?" asked Jason as he turned to her.

"I think so" replied Diana.

"How can you be so heartless man, she just woke up and you already instructing her to use the faith lamp what if she loses consciousness again" said Austin as he yelled at Jason. 

"We have no choice Austin, as you can see our attack won't be enough to take him down so we need the faith lamp to end this fight" reply Jason.

"It's alright Austin since it is the least I can do and besides I would only lose some strength and nothing more" said Diana.

Quickly sitting down cross leg, Diana begins to infuse all the energy she has left into the faith lamp as her face begins to go pale before a bright energy burst out of the faith lamp as it took the form of a sword before flying toward the possessed who had his eyes wide open when seeing the sword heading his way and tried to fend against the attack before due to the lightning attack and sword attack that continues to strike on his, he couldn't defend himself against the bright sword that was heading his way as it pierces his chest and exploded into a bright light which coated the possessed as he rate at which he begins to fade away increases. 

"I….hate you all" yelled the possessed with difficulty as he continues to fade away.

"Good thing that you hate us because we also hate you as much" replies Jason loudly for the possessed to hear even while he is tormented to death.
