The Return of the Grim Reaper

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: The fall of the invincible knight



Flashback

FRANCE TEN YEARS AGO

An extreme battle was being fought at the top of the Eiffel Tower, the people watching the confrontation could not believe their eyes, they thought they were only flashes of attacks from the countries, but one person in particular mentioned that it was THE REAPER fighting against five people belonging to Germany except one who is wearing a kind of armor that is only watching the fight.

A rain accompanied by heavy thunder and big lightning did not allow people to see the fight, so only the flashes they already saw were appreciated.

"Do they really not know when to surrender?" asks Raizor looking at the four people wearing special suits with the symbol of Germany on their shoulders.

Raizor looks sideways at the other person behind them, noting that this one had a knight armor on only his hair is showing, but the rest including the face is covered by the armor.

"It's your last chance Parka, surrender or we will kill you now" One tells him looking at him seriously, seeing how Raizor smiles when he heard what he said.

"With you killing me, how interesting that sounds" Raizor said with a smile looking at the people who didn't understand anything, but then one of them fell to the ground dead leaving the rest speechless.

They looked forward and did not see Raizor where he was, then another one of them falls to the ground dead with several cuts all over unlike the other one who had nothing.

The two that were left gathered to attack him, but they couldn't see him or feel his presence until they saw how the knight looked them in the eyes.

"You two are already dead" Said the knight after watching as Raizor appeared behind the two of them and simply snapped his fingers, and they both fell to the ground dead.

Raizor and the knight stared at each other as they started to slowly move forward, the knight unsheathes his sword to then start running towards Raizor who also does the same.

The knight throws four consecutive swords that Raizor dodges to then give him three punches followed by a kick that makes him retreat, the knight retreats and then launches an attack with affinity to the fire element, but without conjuring it something that called the attention of Raizor who dodges the attack.

Then the knight appears next to Raizor who is surprised by the great speed at which he moved, but then a few waves of swords go towards Raizor who tries to block them all, which he manages to remain intact and leaving the knight surprised.

"You really are a monster Raizor, a normal person would have died by now" The knight tells him while he prepares to attack again, but he sees how Raizor smiles, closes his eyes to then open them and look at the knight witheringly.

The knight feels that something will attack him from the front so he dodges the attack, but his mask breaks showing that in reality that attack was for Raizor to see his face.

"I knew your voice sounded familiar, I see that stupid guy guarding you doesn't know how to guard you well Roy" Raizor says with a smile as he looks at Roy seriously putting his hands in his pockets and turning around to leave.

"Where are you going?" Roy asks him angrily as he prepares to attack him, but then sees Raizor stop and snaps his fingers again.

Roy out of nowhere falls to the ground and spits out a large amount of blood, but he doesn't die he only stays half dead and looks at Raizor who turns around to approach him slowly, he grabs him by the neck to look at him with a smile.

"You really are interesting Roy, the invincible knight" Raizor says grimly then punches Roy sending him into a wall.

Roy simply looks at Raizor who walks away leaving him there, since that day Roy swore to himself that he would kill Raizor no matter what, even if it means risking his own existence.

End of flashback

Erick and Euphi arrive to the area and find the fight between Raizor and Roy, the latter with his powers out of control and looking terrifying in the eyes of Euphi who grabs Erick's hand making him realize that she is shaking with fear.

"Euphi...calm down" Erick tells her gripping her hand tightly and smiling at her making her calm down a bit, although in reality Erick knows perfectly well that Raizor provoked Roy to end up in that state.

"Wow, apparently my plan didn't work" Said a voice behind them, Erick and Euphi opened their eyes wide hearing that voice, she squeezes his hand tightly for fear of the person behind the two of them.

"Because I'm not surprised he's here...director" Erick said turning around to look at the one who some was the person who founded the spy organization where they all met.

"Nice to see you again Erick, Euphi" The director told them with a smile as he approached them standing to the side looking at the excellent scene to his eyes, the fight between Raizor and Roy.

"If you are here, I guess they killed Lara right?" asks Euphi looking at the director who smiles hearing her say that.

Lara was a scientist who worked with them anonymously a few years ago, she was forced to work for many organizations in the section of high risk experiments, where people who wanted to risk their lives would go to be subjected to an experiment that changed their body so they can have affinity with an element.

That experiment never turned out well because people lost control every time a certain time passed after the experiment, but there was one person who should never leave the lab for anything in the world, since his control was unstable.

Lara always warned that it would be risky to take him outside just because she wants to fight against THE REAPER for the humiliation she received years ago by him, but the director did not want to listen to her and released the person on the condition that he does not lose control and kill his target, Lara tried to prevent that from happening since it would be risky in the future, but the director killed her mercilessly.

"At the end of the day that woman was already a nuisance to me" Said the director with a smirk that made Euphi who wanted to attack him angry, but Erick grabbed her hand tightly to make her understand that it was stupid to do that knowing what was going on.

"Why are you trying to eliminate Raizor director?" Erick asks her with a serious voice while he looks towards Raizor's battle against Roy, same that Raizor has under control since the other is out of control and doesn't know what he is doing.

"Because he is a threat to humanity, besides if his sister finds him it is more than obvious that it will be the end for everyone and you two know it perfectly" Answers the director with a hoarse voice while he looks sideways at Erick and Euphi who get nervous when they hear him say that since it is true what he said.

"You know perfectly well that Raizor's sister never wanted to be part of the war, you guys put her in on purpose and you know it" Erick tells him with a serious tone of voice while looking at the director who smiles putting his hands in his pockets looking at the stars.

A silence accompanied by a gust of wind took over the scene, Erick stared at the director while he put behind him Euphi who could feel his trembling hand, the only thing that could be heard was Raizor and Roy's fight.

The director turns around looking at Erick specifically, he walks towards him with a smile and then puts his right hand on Erick's shoulder who keeps his serious look towards him.

"You know the day will come, when you will have to make that decision you avoid thinking about so much" The director whispers to Erick with a smile then walks away knowing that he left the boy thinking about what he said to him.

"Erick... are you okay?" Euphi asks him with a concerned tone seeing that he was thinking about something, but you could also tell he was nervous as his hand was shaking.

"Huh? Yeah, I'm fine Euphi" Erick answers him somewhat nervously, but Euphi lets it go since what was important now was Raizor's fight against Roy out of control.

RAIZOR VS ROY (OUT OF CONTROL)

Raizor dodges the consecutive attacks of Roy who does not see what he is doing because of the lack of control in his body and mind, but anyway it complicates the situation for Raizor who can not get too close to him since the attacks are connected with the affinity of light that Roy has.

The attacks do not stop and are increasingly more complicated to dodge and block for Raizor who begins to get tired as the wound that can not heal began to bleed more than before, he feels the pain, but ignores it to continue fighting knowing that it will be complicated to heal it later.

The fight becomes increasingly difficult for Raizor because of his wound, but after having been on the defensive during the whole fight he finally begins to attack Roy who now must block the attacks that come at high speed and with great force.

Raizor attacks with consecutive swords to Roy who blocks most of them, but receives three in the part of his abdomen making him spit blood as soon as he feels the cuts, then in an oversight Roy is shot after receiving an area kick from Raizor who jumps towards him to intercept him in the air and slam him to the ground.

Roy quickly gets up giving a kick in the abdomen to Raizor that makes him go back, but then with a great speed he rushes again to Roy who does not notice that and ends up receiving five consecutive swords in different parts of the body.

Raizor keeps throwing swords at Roy who can barely block them because of the great loss of blood he has, but it also complicates him because of the speed of the attacks that can barely be seen.

"Damn, I can't tire him at this rate I won't be able to finish him" Raizor said in his mind looking at Roy fixedly, seeing how Roy started to act strangely as he was standing still doing nothing, but Raizor felt like something was approaching at a great speed.

"Huh?" Raizor reflexively stops someone's attack and then runs him through with his sword killing him instantly, but then he sees how it was just an illusion and that Roy was gone, Raizor stood still doing nothing when out of nowhere Roy appears behind him with a sadistic smile.

"You never learn from your mistakes Roy, you really are useless" Raizor tells him after turning to him and stopping the attack in its tracks leaving Roy speechless and causing his smile from before to disappear.

"Affinity with the dark element: Eternal Darkness Cut" Raizor said raising his sword to then cut Roy and then kicking him backwards.

Roy smiles sadistically since the cut did nothing but spit blood, but then he feels how his body does not respond and falls to his knees looking at Raizor who approaches him keeping his sword and then raise his hand and place it on Roy's face.

"Affinity with the dark element: destruction of the dark soul" The hand that was on Roy's face started to emanate a dark aura that little by little started to consume all the dark soul of him, but he didn't feel any damage he could only feel how his life passed through his eyes to then fall to the ground dead after Raizor withdrew his hand.

"Farewell forever invincible knight" says Raizor with a smile while he walks to Erick and Euphi who saw the whole fight, Roy's death means only one thing…that Raizor even though years passed without fighting against strong people is still the same in the fights, a person without mercy and who decides if his opponent must die just like THE REAPER.
