《Devour》Chapter 14: Soul Armor
Advertisement
"Sir Kiba, It's been so long since I witnessed your soul bracelet's might! I'll be rude. Can you send mine regards to your father if you have a chance?" Mr. B let out.
Kida is surprised that his father knows so many people, and the more people he meets that know his father, the more he drifts away from his father, "Of course!"
Blood Tribe ability: The tribesmen can absorb blood from an open wound and blood lying around the battlefield. The collected blood turns to temporary strength and healing. No one wants to go against this kind of powerhouse.
Mickey's soul necklace: A support item that grants complete control over electricity. However, this soul necklace requires a massive power supply, making this item suitable for supporting rather than fighting. It can recharge, but the owner must find a storm to restore the necklace's strength through multiple lighting or five level-five lighting stone.
"Mickey and Dino, to the center," Mr. B announces as he wonders if Mickey is an excellent candidate for Aera.
Jio also walks into the center for no reason and starts stretching, "Mr. B, this time I want Mickey and Dino to fight me."
Everyone looks at him like he's a madman and continues, "Mickey, I remember when you told me that you need an external lighting magic to get powerful, so I'll provide you some."
Jio takes out two level-five lighting stones, and electricity starts to appear on top of him, forming a bird and shouts, "Thunder Bird!"
He doesn't require to say "Thunder Bird."
The Thunder Bird shoots up in the sky and spreads its wings gathering lightings from the clouds, causing a loud roaring thunder, and immediately descends towards Mickey.
Just like the last time dealing with electricity, he looks at the Thunder Bird and raises his right arm, not afraid and smiling. The Thunder Bird melts like snow flowing around Mickey, making everyone question themselves if they're dreaming. Everyone is surprised since this kind of magic control can be done by a Lighting Magus rank magician.

Mickey's body glows while electricity sparks around his body. He inspects his body and tries to process the power insides him and how to employs all this.
Jio throws a bottle of blood that opens upon reaching Dino that he prepared beforehand, while his body absorbs the blood in the bottle. His eyes start to glow red like a fierce animal ready to pounce at any moment and takes his battle-ax, smiling as he expects a good fight.
Mr. B smiles since it has been so long since he witnesses this kind of power as he strikes the bell once.
Mickey disappears and reappears in front of Jio with a lighting ball in his hand flickering, producing an intimidating cracking sound.
*My friend, underestimating me is a lousy choice* Mickey thought as he lands a clean punch to Jio's stomach, but he hears a metallic sound while his hand starts to feel numb.
Jio gets electrocuted for five seconds in the air and surprised everyone as the jet black metal reveals itself under his scattered shirt with a honeycomb's hexagonal pattern while electricity travels around the armor, giving him the ability to move faster but slightly slower than Mickey.
Dino did not just watch the two fight but waited for the right time to strike; he appears behind Jio and swings his battle-ax to surprise Jio with his sneak attack. Jio hits the ground, but it seems that he didn't receive any damage at all. Jio takes out Jon and morphs, extending to a five-meter long staff hitting Dino's chin as everyone looks in anticipation, not knowing what just happened.
Jio grows wings with the same pattern as the body armor, with electricity flowing through it. Dino and Mickey watched him in disbelieve and decided to give their all. Mickey's eyes glow with lighting playing around his eyes while all his power is focusing in his hand, and Dino closes his eyes and focuses all the energy on his battle-ax's sharp edge.

Jio spread his arms and wings mid-air while he also focuses on all magic and energy he absorbs from Mickey and Dino, but Mickey aggressively raises his hand, releasing all the lighting magic from his body to the clouds and gather more power in the sky. The power triple after going through the clouds, and this power can destroy anything it touches.
*What the fuck is that magic control!* Jio sees and feels the magic controlled by Mickey while all of his hair stands up from the imminent danger.
Jio's wings wrap around his body like a ball as he falls while uses the magic and energy he gathered for extra protection. The powerful lighting directly strikes Jio, but Mickey saw half of the power go to the ground and the other half to the wings.
In everyone's eyes, Mickey is like a God releasing his divine power to smite Jio for offending him, but Mickey did not know how powerful his attack can become and hopes for his friend's safety.
As the smoke clears out, everyone saw Jio stands in the middle of the blackened soil and appears to be exhausted.
*An opportunity!* Dino thought as he opens his eyes as it flashes red light across the field and quickly charges towards Jio, swinging his battle-ax with all his might.
Jio's armor and wings move like water to both hands and morph into left and right shields. He combines the shields into one, letting it hit the ground, and braces himself.
When the battle-ax and shield clash, an enormous shock wave rash in the field and the mansion shattering all glass windows and pushing Mickey away, but Aera saw this coming catching Mickey. When he opened his eyes, he saw Aera's worried yet beautiful face as he stares at her charming eyes.
"This time, we have a draw!" Mr. B announces his judgment and is happy to witness such a good fight tonight.
"I didn't know your that powerful!" Dino happily complements Jio as they catch their breath.
"Thank you," Jio reply as he walks with Dino to the group.
Jio is exhausted from the fight since all he did was defend himself and absorbing the energy from their massive attack that requires control and a lot of attention, or he would be saying hello to his dead village parents. He is happy to use Jon and learn something new, and he can start finding a new way to improve himself.
