Chapter-22 –Breaking the Boundary

{Third Person Narration}

“So, as you can, see this is how this world works.” Said Aron.

Aron who had trapped Ira in his world of illusion was trying to spread his corruption into Ira’s head, he was controlling everything which Ira did in this world, his breathing, and his speech were all under the control of Aron.

Ira was seated on the ground while listening to Aron’s theory about his grand world, while he was not even allowed to open his mouth much less argue, all he could do was sit there and listen to Aron.

He was sitting there with an irritated look, he had enough of his talks and couldn’t take any more of it, and he was at his breaking point when he suddenly disappeared from the illusion world.His disappearance was instantly noticed by the Aron, his face showed a worried expression for a while which later turned into a smile.

“Oh well! it looked like he was getting bored anyway, there might be an interesting guy outside. I should greet him as well.” Aron thought to himself.

Ira snapped out of the illusion and found himself lying on the ground, he knew for certain that this was the real world, no illusion was there, he tried to stand back on his feet but was unable to do so, he felt weakness throughout his entire body, something was there, inside him, eating away his energy.

The next thing which came to his mind was to look around for others, all his companions and enemies including the two demons and the revived elementist assassin were all lying on the ground powerless, just like him. Suddenly a voice was heard.

“What is happening here? Who is the one disturbing my research? Come forward.”—Spell Master Kailash

An old man came out in the light, he had a long beard and long hair, some of his hair had turned white due to his old age, but there were still some black hairs on his head, he was holding a book in his left hand, which was, without a doubt, a grimoire.

“It can’t be you.”—Yukina

“How are you still alive Spell Master Kailash?”—Gracel

The presence of this man was a danger for the members of revolutionary army, this man known as Spell Master Kailash, the one who knew the most magic’s in this world, the creator of Magus Inferno, a magic which took life of million in the last Trade war, he enslaved people, finished entire races, cultures and history from the world.

“Answer me, you were definitely killed by God Nox in the last war, how come are you still alive Kail…”—Gracel.

She was screaming her lungs out, when she became silent forever, a beam of magic made a hole in her body, her abdomen area was opened and she lost her life in an instant and fell on the ground.

“Don’t you dare to utter that name in my presence.”—Kailash

“Gracel……”—Ira and Yukina both screamed, tears started flowing from Ira’s eyes as he tried to stand on his feet again but fell even harder this time, he was not able to produce any magic at all.

“You demons are useless yourself, I might as well kill you with this revolutionary army trash.”—Kailash

“That won’t be suitable for our relations I suppose.”—Asura

Asura mysteriously appeared at right of Kailash, putting his back in the direction of Spell Master Kailash right hand.

“So, you stand again.”—Kailash

“I felt dizziness momentarily but now I’m alright.”—Asura

“This is just a waste of time I will kill the members of revolutionary army you take your demon pet and you assassin, you are free to do anything.”—Kailash

Spell Master Kailash flipped open his grimoire and started to look for a spell in it, after finding the spell he closed his eyes and prayed to his god to forgive his sins and let the soul of is enemies rest in peace.

Without uttering a word he casted a spell on Ira, Junichi and Yukina, a red coloured magic circle appeared below them, which started to suck their magic powers out of them at vigorous rate, they all started screaming in the pain as their magic was extracted from them and they couldn’t do a thing about that. They were just helplessly lying on the ground, waiting for a wonder to happen and somehow they could free themselves from his spell, but instead of wonder a disaster took place.

“Oh! It’s you Spell Master Kailash.”—Aron

Aron appeared at top of a 2-storied building which was just few metre away from the spot and Aron was easily visible to each and every one, he had that carefree look and weird smile on his face even this time.

“I thought you were killed by God Nox in Trade War.”—Aron

Just like his sister, Aron too provoked Kailash and received the same punishment, a beam of magic pierced through his belly but surprisingly nothing happened to Aron, instead of opening up a wound, the beam passed through his body without any resistance and without doing any harm to his body.

“Oh dear! Everyone wants to kill me, so there is nothing wrong if I want the same for them.”--Aron

Kailash was very surprised as nothing happened to Aron but soon he understood that he was already under the illusion of Aron but the thing that surprised him most was that he prepared a anti illusion barrier beforehand which looked pretty useless right now.

Seeing the doubtful and slightly confused state of the Kailash he spoke.

“Yeah, it is a trick which I created some while ago, but that is not important, the important thing is how can a legend from the Trade War who was supposed to be dead for so many decades is still alive, in trade war there was only one man who could have stood up to you, Jerrard Akinu, one of the seraph, but he had decided to not spill any more blood fighting in the war, so you were raging all over the battle fields until the day arrived and you faced God Nox and he ended your reign, but look how funny is this world. Here you are, alive and you fucking killed my sister, not that I care about her anymore, I was going to kill her sooner or later.”—Aron

“I thought that I would praise you for creating such a wonderful magic on your own, but now it looks like you are crazy and have lost a piece of your brain at some point in your life.”—Kailash

“I wouldn’t like being praised by a monster like you.”—Aron

“You seem to be a foul mouthed too, from where have you crawled out?”—Kailash

“Oh! I have come here all the way from Naraka specially to take that celestial stone but it seems like it is pretty hard, after all you are here.”—Aron

“Don’t bother me brat. I need to take care of these people first.”—Kailash

“Why? They are already worn out and soon will die because of magic extraction from their bodies.”—Aron

“You don’t know this world well kid, in this world where magic blooms numerous possibilities, you can’t take the risk.”—Kailash

Kailash turned towards members of revolutionary army who were suffering the effects of his magic.

“After that bitch whom should I kill, the one hiding his face or the demon or the White force Yukina.” He mused to himself and turned towards Yukina.

“your magic always used to surprise me Yukina, you were a great mage but unfortunately this is the end to your journey.”—Kailash

Kailash raised his book in air and was going to use a different magic when, he received a kick from Ira and was sent flying backwards. Kailash was surprised after looking at Ira walking again, how he nullified his magic? How he reached so close to him without him sensing anything? He was shocked and was not able to make right judgements when Ira took out his sword and again attacked Kailash.

He closed the distance in a nick of second and with all the momentum transferred to his sword he made a strike on Kailash, the assassin who was immune to all physical attacks tried to block Ira, he came in his way took out his own sword and tried to defend against Ira’s attack but was instead cut into the half.

The expression of the assassin turned lifeless, his face was like that of a corpse lifeless and free, his body which was cut into two half fell on the ground, spreading blood all over the place.

Kailash’s face and clothes too were all covered in blood, with eyes filled with amazement he saw Ira standing near him, his blade was having a stripe design on it which was emitting a bright blue light.

Kailash recognised which magic Ira was using and was now puzzled in his own thoughts.

‘How can this be real? This boy is actually using this magic? How can he a mere foot soldier possess power like this? But then why didn’t he used it before?’--Kailash thoughts

He inspected the assassin who was lying down on the ground in the hope that he might be alive and unhurt somehow and all the blood show by Ira was some sort of illusion or trick played by either Ira or Aron.

“Haha…this can’t be real, he was actually born with magic, that bastard is using Emperor’s Will.”—Aron

Aron gone back to his excited psycho mode, in his crazy laughter he delivered a message to all that Ira is someone whom they all need to fear.

Kailash looked at Ira’s sword which was emitting light and in a strange way, that enough was enough for him to conclude that his magic was unstable, but now it doesn’t matter he need to dispose of Ira at soon as possible or he could become a great threat to them in future.

Gilf was the first one to recognise this and already made his move, he sneak up on ira from behind, he lifted his huge battle axe and attacked Ira mercilessly, but it was useless, in the mid of is attack Ira noticed him and he also attacked to counter him, Ira’s sword and metal handle of Gilf blade collided and Ira’s sword easily cut the handle and Gilf chest.

Gilf retreated and stepped away from Ira, he was at shock that how Ira so easily cut down the axe which he manifested from his demonic magic, no human should be able to do that with his magic according to him, so how could Ira do that?

“You punk, you think you are strong or something? Now I will show you what a demon is capable of.”—Gilf

Gilf shouted at Ira, his voice easily showed signs of frustration, he was so mad at Ira that he decided to use his ace.

A strong and continuous stream of magic started to flow out of his body, the earth started shaking, all human started to shiver from fear, the pressure around Gilf was increasing at enormous rate, with his body turning shape, he removed his human skin and started showing his true colours.

His height didn’t changed but his muscles started to expand and his skin started to change its colour a red fur started to appear on him, two huge horn came out of his skull, his hands were now having huge claws which were holding two brand new battle axes.

The real demon had finally awake, Gilf was now in his true form, he was now the one whom entire human race fear and call him Demon.

Ira tried to calm his shaking hands, his inner instincts were saying him to run, but the anger was much louder this time and was saying to him, go kill them, kill them all, show these mere Demons power of humans, let just do a battle of death, show them the true strength of a human. After all, all the boundaries are already broken.
