CotJ II: The Last Stand Act II Part VI
#16 of Chronicles of the Justicar II: The LAst Stand
[Uncharted World; Underground Prison Complex; 3,568 A.D, November 27th, 2:10AM]
Lord Vurdamis laughed to himself, "Bring the human's corpse to Malero when you are through." He said afterwards
The infinite lord disappeared in a blue fog allowing his minions to finish off the easy task.
"Sorry it has to end this way." The Vanquisher laughed "But this is what you get for not accepting the truth."
"And what truth is that?" The Justicar asked angrily
"The fact the Void God has won; do you honestly think that even with the help of VALOR and the darkspawn fleets that they will stop him?"
The Vanquisher pointed with his left handgun at the swarm of cult monsters that flooded the huge prison.
"Take a good look Arjun, recognize any? You should. After all you either killed most of them or fought along side them." The Vanquisher continued
"Do I look like I care? I killed hundreds of soldiers, what makes you think I care when they are undead?" Arjun retaliated
Ethan laughed, "Fair enough."
The Vanquisher fired off two shots into both of the Justicar's legs that dropped him to the ground before he had a chance to defend himself.
"Goodbye, Justicar." The Vanquisher said smugly as he aimed his pistol against the Justicar's forehead
An explosion caused by a drone when it was slashed in half distracted Ethan long enough for Arjun to head butt the trophy clad traitor in the chest knocking him away. The avatar of Pandemonium looked towards the upper level of the huge prison cell to find the rebel demon leader, Xross, retrieve his sword in his open palm as it flew back to him.
The rest of the drones got ready to fire on the lightly armoured alien when the avatar telepathically told its troops to stand down as it would deal with the ancient being itself.
Xross quickly brought his sword up when the dark demi-god suddenly appeared out of nowhere and attacked the demon with its own hellish weapon.
Arjun got up with his sword gripped tight in both hands while his shield was attached to his backside. He watched Ethan rise to his feet before activating his jet pack so he floated above his undead horde, but before he could make any moves against the silver knight he did not see Liken leap from the second floor onto him as they both fell to the ground.
"Argh! Minions attack!" Ethan ordered as he kicked the valgary off of him
Xross ducked under the near fatal blow from the dark avatar as it swung its ethereal blade at his neck that would have severed his head from his shoulders in a flash. Strike after strike was met in a clash of enchanted weaponry as the two combatants forced the other into a stalemate as neither could get past their opponents defences. Xross struggled to meet the avatar's next attack as he used both of his hands to hold his blade against that of the demi-god's until the large half organic, half infinite being swatted the demon away like a fly with its free hand.
The Justicar ran up to Azerigan who stayed motionless as the battle raged around him. A blade dancer swung its left arm at the human only to be avoided with a duck before the Justicar threw the experiment over his back like a foot ball player.
"Hey, wake up!" Arjun ordered to the massive beast that was chained to the ground
Azerigan did not bother to make eye contact with the tiny human instead he just continued to lie were he was hoping for a stray round from a drone to pierce his skull.
"We don't have ti-"Arjun said before three blade dancers pulled the human backwards and threw him to the ground
The Vanquisher fired several shots at the valgary who leaped from wall to wall to avoid his deadly projectiles. When Liken finally got in range to pounce onto the human again Ethan took out a large bowie knife from his right boot and got ready as she descended onto him in a loud screech.
The avatar of Pandemonium showed the demon leader the mental images of his deaths in thousands of ways at its own hands to distract the alien. Xross unfortunately put too much of his focus into getting the dark demi-god out of his mind he forgot about the physical battle he was also engaged in, the avatar took the moment of opportunity to head butt its opponent to the ground.
With his right fist the Justicar punched the head of a blade dancer knocking it straight off from its shoulders before the silver knight shoved the corpse away with his body.
"This is no time to be screwing around!" Arjun yelled at Azerigan
"I don't deserve to be saved, just leave this accursed place warm blood." Azerigan answered weakly
"You are one of the good guys; we need you if we are going to stop the vampire space ghosts!" Arjun said as he threw his blade to cut the massive metal chains that held the dragon down.
"What are you talking about...?" Azerigan moped
"What I'm saying is...well it's a long story but the Seer made several awesome people that are strong enough to put an end to the Void God's invasion of this realm and you are one of those awesome people." Arjun explained frantically
Azerigan opened his eyes as he saw the silver knight along with the drone that picked up the Justicar in both of its claws. Arjun struggled to get free from the drones vice but the walker was using all of its crushing power into squeezing the human. The drone turned around when it felt a huge looming shadow over itself that darkened its body. The drone looked up at Azerigan who stood on his legs before the large dragon ripped out its arms from its sockets allowing the Justicar to get free.
The avatar of Pandemonium looked at Azerigan whose head was touching the top floor as he still stood on his hind legs while ripping apart drones with intense hatred. Xross looked at the distracted demi-god and forced every part of his being into a final strike into the side of the avatar's skull like head. The dark demi-god howled in pain before in a flash of light the monster disintegrated allowing Xross to join the battle on the ground.
The Vanquisher aimed both of his weapons at the now wounded valgary and as he got ready to pull the triggers to finish her off the human disappeared under the left foot of Azerigan when h had crushed him.
Xross, Arjun, Liken and Azerigan stood in the middle of the enormous prison cell with drones and cult monsters flooding in from all entrances and as they got ready to battle the endless horde they materialized from the battlefield without their knowledge allowing the infinite forces to stand around dumbfounded.
[Unknown Vessel; Uncharted Space; 3,568 A.D, November 27th, 2:40AM]
The four heroes stood in darkness for what seemed like hours until a bright white light blinded their faces from the direction they were looking at. The Justicar's helmet began picking up communications but his language translator did not work which put Arjun on nerve meaning VALOR had not encountered what ever brought them from that infinite base.
"Can you hear us know?" asked an unknown person near the front of them
"Yea, we can hear you." Arjun answered
Whoever asked the grouped now went back to its native tongue as it conversed with others that must have been in the room with it.
"You will find a small pill in front of you, please take it." Ordered the same voice
"And what if we don't...?" Arjun asked as his mother taught him to never take drugs from strangers
"We will kill you to preserve the secrecy of where we are."
"But we don't even know where 'here' is!" Arjun argued
"You do not have a choice in the matter." The voice answered
A light illuminate a stand where four blue pills for each of them sat. Everyone took their pill but the Justicar had to throw the pill into Azerigan's mouth as his claws were much too large to get it himself.
"Excellent, now we can all talk without the need of these old translators." The voice chuckled
"Who are you?" Xross demanded
The lights came on showing that they were in some kind of storage bay but the most noticeable thing was everything was made out of some organic material, the walls, the floor, the crates, everything. In an instance a rather pasty white and tall being stood in front of the group that loomed over the Justicar but no where near as high as the mighty Azerigan. The creature was lanky in proportions with long legs, long arms, huge claws for hands, no facial features what's so ever and its back had its spine protruding out of it.
"My name is Austigar and you are aboard our largest...and only city ship." The alien answered
"City ship?" Arjun asked "What do your people live here?"
Austigar nodded, "The infinite destroyed our home world after a very long and bloody war against them. Ever since only a small group of chosen people got to escape on this ship and we lived here ever since."
Xross raised his eyebrow as Azerigan knew as well, "Are your people the Ghouls?" Xross asked
"Yes we are." Austigar nodded "We rescued you hoping to prolong your species as well when the Void God is to return."
"The hells are you talking about man! You're the god damn Ghouls you guys killed infinite by the millions like every day you can help us destroy them!" Arjun said gleefully
"If you knew what we know about the infinite then you know fighting them is pointless, when organics die they get stronger, when they die they recycle their old troops and keep moving forward. It is best just to hide from them." Austigar nodded
"The Void God is in the middle of getting an organic host and if you don't send us back we will all be up shit's creek without a paddle. We can stop this invasion once and for all if we stop them there!" Arjun argued
"An organic host...we had intercepted telepathic relays between infinite lords about this. But we will be safe here in this ship."
"Well maybe you are, but what about those other species on other worlds that haven't invented space flight eh? They don't even know that soon their whole world will just be devoured! We are talking about billions, upon billons, upon billons of lives here! How can you stand around like this?!" Arjun yelled again
"Because young one, the infinite cannot be defeated! No matter how many you kill there is always more! We fought them for eons losing only a couple soldiers when they lost over a hundred thousand soldiers and they still beat us through attrition. The only way we found was a 'weakness' was their Void God, if he were to fall all of his troops and lords would revert back to their animalistic nature and turn on one anther without his telepathic guidance...but facing the entire infinite army at once has a higher survivability chance than facing the Void God." Austigar answered
"Well I don't fucking care! Send us Drakos and allow us to stop the Void God's entry!" Arjun yelled
"I admire your tenacity; I will bring up your points to our king."
The ghoul greeter walked off to a door as it gestured for the rest to follow him, unfortunately Azerigan could not follow the group so Xross stayed behind to help comfort the massive beast with his own knowledge of losing someone close.
"Its still good to see the slave race has flourished." Austigar laughed as Liken and Arjun walked behind him as the two tired to make eye contact with one anther, "I'll make the necessary arrangements so I can talk to our king, I'll be back shortly"
Austigar bowed before the two aliens then walked away leaving them alone in the hall way together.
"Hey Liken..." Arjun said
"Don't talk to me." Liken answered back as she walked off
"I thought you were dead back on the Dorian Grey!" The Justicar said as he followed her
"Why would you care." She snarled back
"Don't get angry that I had to think about a very important question!" Arjun snapped back as he was growing tired of her impulses
"What was there to think about?!" Liken yelled back "You told me that you would never leave me!"
"And I didn't!" Arjun argued as he pulled the valgary's arm to cause her to stop walking off
Liken ripped the arm of the Justicar away with her free one, "If Xross had not found me I would have died back there! I thought maybe you would come for me but I was wrong!"
"I had to go save the fucking Seer!" Arjun yelled back
"And now he's dead too!" Liken screamed with tears, "We have no hope left, the very people who held against the infinite for the longest time know that fighting them is pointless, we should just hide!"
"Hiding won't help when the Void God enters this realm! The ghouls will die like everyone one else! Stopping Lord Vurdamis on Drakos is our only hope to stopping Pandemonium!" Arjun argued
Liken started to panic, "How are we suppose to even win?! The Seer is dead, everyone but us is dead and the infinite have yet to be shown a weakness!"
"Right now I'm betting Xross's and VALOR forces are already at Drakos fighting the infinite with the space lizards. The Ghouls forced the infinite into a stale mate; maybe if we all work together we can defeat the Void God." Arjun answered
"So we just fight until we all die?" Liken asked
"Well yeah, but I don't plan on dying." Arjun watched as Liken headed in the direction she tried to run off to but at a much slower pace, "Look, I'm sorry if it wasn't the answer you wanted to hear about what I think of you."
The valgary turned around, "I shouldn't have expected anything more from you anyway." She sneered
"Hey! Will you just drop this fucking emotional bullshit for one goddamn moment?!" Arjun yelled as his patience with the black scaled alien was gone, "You don't fucking ask if a person likes them and get all piss angry if they have to think about it!"
Liken leaped from her position onto the fully armoured Justicar causing both of weapons to be pinned under his back.
"Then why were you trying to help me if you did not truly like me in the least bit!" the valgary yelled at his face
"Because I thought we could just be friends!" Arjun lied, "Little did I know your still an emotional wreck that is properly rebounding onto me from Zhakaev!"
The valgary in a fit of rage tore of Arjun's helmet and threw it aside as she grabbed his neck with both claws.
"Of course I'm in this state you stupid human! I lost my only friend to the enemies that have no weakness and then you come along and start being nice to me and helping me get through this! I thought you loved me but I should have known you are still the immature brat I first met!" Liken yelled as her spit landed on Arjun's face
Arjun tried to get out what was on his mind but his mouth just refused to say it only adding to Liken's opinion on the brown human.
"Just what I thought, you can't even say it can yo-"Liken said when she was interrupted
The valgary saw Arjun's head rose up to head butt her but before she could retaliate nothing had harmed her instead she felt something against her jaws and saw the human had his eye's closed while he kissed her. Liken blushed as she released her grip around Arjun's neck and helped him out to his feet.
"Liken, you need to calm the fuck down a bit." Arjun reassured as he brushed her left arm with his own
"So what was that? Do you love me or not." Liken said hoping for not anther disappointment
The Justicar took the valgary's hands in his own and held them tight while he looked at her face that had no visible eyes but he knew she was staring back at him.
"Liken..." Arjun said as he tried to swallow what ever kept him from forming an answer down his throat, "I-I love you."
The valgary immediately hugged the Justicar tight in her arms, "Please tell me you really mean it." She cried afterwards
"I do." He stated simply
Liken brought her head closer to that of Arjun's as did he as the two got ready to kiss passionately, they were interrupted.
"I have come with the answer from our king." Austigar answered as he entered the hall way in long strides
Liken placed her claws on Arjun's breastplate allowing the two to gently push away from each other when the tall lanky figure came close.
"What did he say?" Arjun asked as Liken picked up his helmet
"Our leader is confident that you would not be able to give away our location even if you tell that we are still alive. You will be sent to Drakos immediately to die honourably against the infinite, we will not be joining you." Austigar answered
"Figured as much." Arjun said not expecting any help
"Good luck, I hope your species take as many infinite as they can with them." Austigar said as he bowed when both Arjun and Liken along with Xross and Azerigan disappeared from the Ghoul city ship in a flash
"If only the infinite could be defeated..." Austigar sighed as he walked back to his original post
[Planet Drakos; Caer Sidi; 3,568 A.D, November 27th, 3:40AM]
Magical spells and large arrow bolts fired from siege engines tickled drone hull plating as they fired relentlessly back at the draconian defenders in the village square. The wrist and chest cannons of the drones tore through lizard folk and dragon alike that also obliterated nearby buildings that many of the soldiers used to live in.
"This is Death from Above, firing main rail gun batteries." The mono tone filtered voice of the gun ship's pilot said when his aircraft reached its destination
The massive rail cannons under the hovering attack platform fired its powerful magnetized shots at the drones that still mindlessly fired at the draconians. The first shot fired annihilated the drone as its upper body was completely torn off and shattered in millions of pieces from the impact. The second drone looked at the gun ship and got ready to fire its main shoulder cannon but the human weapon charged up first and fired anther projectile faster than the speed of light that also ripped the infinite mech in two. The last drone looked at the wreckage of its former squad mates as it back away from the gun ship before the rail guns fired both of their shots into the drone completely vaporizing it.
The draconian guardsmen and knights did not know what to think of the warm blood made air craft that saved them but they continued onward to the main castle that was now under infinite control.
Parts of the cloudy sky above the massive medieval esc city became a dark red as orbiting VALOR satellites deployed by the human fleets began targeting the infinite lords in their massive spider shaped suits. Slowly infinite drones became lost and confused when their commanders were being picked off one by one by orbital strikes causing them to stagger around with cult monsters slowly losing ground as VALOR grade tanks simply ran over the hellish experiments to make room for more marine teams.
"Taking fire here!" yelled a VALOR marine as his squad was pinned down from several gunner cult monsters
As the groaning experiments inched closer to the mixed species marine squad a group of black armoured commandos from Xross's forces leaped out of a ruined draconian building onto the cult monsters. The gunner cult monsters were no match for the elite soldiers in close combat as they were far too sluggish unlike their blade dancer kin. One by one the once advancing gunners were incapacitated by precise strikes with their knives or simply torn apart from darkspawns using their powerful strength.
"My lord we are slowly being forced back to this area, the draconians have brought in reinforcements from across their kingdom and now VALOR and the former Forces of Khaos have also shown up helping them..." a cult member said as he cowered under Lord Vurdamis' presence
The infinite lord glared out the window as he saw his disposable troops were being defeated by the organics that he had underestimated for so long.
"It is no concern." Lord Vurdamis answered as he turned around and walked down the steps of Natyria's personal chamber, "We have the Queen Matriarch and more than enough drones and experiments to block the organic advances with a sea of bodies."
The high ranked cult member watched as the frozen infinite lord placed his icy grip on the Queen Matriarch that was pinned onto a huge glowing marker that resembled the one used to summon Lord Khaos into the physical world.
"All you need to do is to stall the organics and our master will have his new body to make this realm of mortality burn." Vurdamis laughed when anther cult member ran up to him out of breath
"My...lord." The female lizard folk said, "The Seer's champions have invaded, they are only a few levels away!"
"What!?" Lord Vurdamis yelled, "This so-called Justicar is tiring my patience. No matter, turn the summoning into a teleportation rune and send the Queen to Dark Spire, we will complete it there."
The out of breath traitor looked at her lord, "What about the champions?"
"I'll handle them, myself. Just make sure you get that portal functional." He ordered
"Yes, my lord." She answered
Clan Prince Azerigan slammed down the reinforced door to the personal chamber of the Queen Matriarch were he had mated with her many times in the past. The four heroes found themselves looking at Lord Vurdamis who was standing beside Natyria who appeared to be unconscious as the cultists prepared the last of the teleportation rune.
"Natyria!" Azerigan yelled out as he immediately ran forward
The cultists had their concentration broken as the massive beast had charged them but before Lord Vurdamis could stop the mighty dragon the Clan Prince used all his strength into shoving his Queen off of the rune taking her place instead.
Azerigan was shortly teleported to Dark Spire.
"You fools!" Lord Vurdamis yelled angrily at the champions
"Fuck man!" Arjun said when Azerigan vanished, "What the hell was that?!"
"You organics wasted my teleportation rune! Now the Void God will not get the body he needs to enter this realm!" Vurdamis shouted
Xross took a step forward, "It's over, Vurdamis you are no match for all of us."
"This was supposed to be a simple invasion to get the Void God a physical manifestation but it was my error to completely disregard you vermin as a threat. I have no idea how you escaped my ambush but you will never leave this place alive!" Lord Vurdamis yelled
Lord Vurdamis' body completely shattered into fragments as they began multiplying rapidly. As more and more ice shards formed they collected at the infinite lord's former position forming a huge ice pillar that continued to expand in its width and height dramatically. The heroes quickly ran over to the Queen Matriarch who woke up in a daze as the entire castle began to collapse on itself, the ice pillar tore a hole through the ceiling of the castle as it continued to grow and expand that was so high aircrafts passed by the top of it.
The Queen Matriarch took the smaller creatures onto her back and quickly flew out of her castle through the openings as the place fell apart. Just right when the huge dragoness left her castle the foundations gave away and collapsed to the ground leaving the huge ice pillar in the remains. Soon the ice shards began forming something else instead of the huge support; a torso was formed on top of the ice pillar along with arms and a fanged skull for a head.
Lord Vurdamis's armoured appeared over his full form that protected his upper body and with two hands he summoned his massive scythe.
"Cower before my true form organics! I am the right hand of the Void God and the vanguard of your doom!" Lord Vurdamis yelled as he looked down at the petty battles near his base
The infinite lord gripped his huge scythe with both hands and swung, his weapon tore hundreds of city blocks in half and what it didn't hit was frozen in ice that killed organic and infinite alike. VALOR ships began to have their engines freeze from being in proximity of the ice cold infinite that caused them to drop out of the sky like rocks into the ground blow.
The Justicar looked around as the entire city began to be consumed in an unnatural blizzard that destroyed everything it came into contact with. The silver knight fought his way through the snow the came up to his waist when a gun ship hovered near him.
"Our engines can take the cold Justicar, get onboard and let's see if you can't fight this guy on equal terms." The pilot said over Arjun'' suit
Xross nodded, "I'll take Liken and get some place safer, let him have it human!"
The valgary looked at Xross with an odd look that she couldn't help but then she looked up at the Justicar who was now on top of the weapon's platform thanks to his suit's magnetic boots.
"Please be safe..." Liken whispered as Xross ushered her away
The gun ship, "Death from Above", flew into the sky as it circled around Lord Vurdamis who fired bolts of ice from his free hand to freeze the entire area solid with his other hand sweeping all organic life out of existence with his scythe. Arjun stood with his sword and shield ready with his suit beeping at the dangerous low temperature that was affecting his suit's integrity and before too long the gun ship got up to eye level with Lord Vurdamis
"This ends here!" The Justicar shouted at the massive ice monster
Warning signs went off in Arjun's HUD from the icy cold breath of Vurdamis that washed over him when the infinite lord opened his jaws to talk.
"Yes it does, organic. The Void God may be out of one host but you can never defeat the infinite, only slow us. I don't know how you continue to live for so long but your chronicles will end here in a frigid demise."
The air began to freeze solid forcing the Justicar to use his oxygen supply as with any puncture to his suit would end in death for the human. The gun ship began flying around the colossal infinite lord in circles to keep their engines warm as the Justicar got ready to fight.
Lord Vurdamis opened his jaws and a hail of huge icicles shot from his mouth towards the ship to turn it into Swiss cheese. With all the speed he could muster from his boots requiring huge power to stay stuck to the flying gun ship the Justicar began deflecting the ice shards away with his blade and shield along with the pilot's firing their own weapons to shoot down the projectiles.
"Can you feel the icy touch of death organic? That is your impending demise." Lord Vurdamis taunted
The frozen infinite lord raised his scythe into the air that fired hundreds of ice shards that broke off of it that landed all around the Justicar. The ice shards began to take form until they all resembled Lord Vurdamis in his humanoid form. The clones of Lord Vurdamis attacked Arjun from every angle as the gun ship continued to protect its self as it shot down the infinite lord's mouth shards.
Arjun kicked, slashed, and punched, anything he could do to get the clones off of the gun ship that did not have the luxury of having magnetized boots like the Justicar did. More and more of the clones appeared all around him until Arjun saw the gun ship was passing by a floating ice cube that fired hundreds of icicles in every direction as it spun around on the spot. With his shield the Justicar protected his body as the gun ship passed by Lord Vurdamis' trap that only succeeded into destroying his clones.
"Your gods cannot help you here, organic! Pandemonium is the only true deity!" Lord
Vurdamis yelled
Lord Vurdamis snatched the tiny aircraft out of the sky with two of his fingers as he held his weapon in the same hand. The Justicar gripped his blade with both hands and slashed at the tips of the infinite lord's frozen fingers until Vurdamis was forced to let go as he could not hold onto it any more.
Lord Vurdamis cackled as he opened his jaw to let a huge blue fog consume the Justicar and the ship, Arjun saw his suit's integrity began to drop rapidly as it was losing power from trying to keep its pilot warm and stay on the ship at the same time. The gun ship began to fall out of the sky as its engines began to shut down but thankfully both the pilot and his co-pilot managed to turn on the secondary thrusters to bring the gun ship's altitude back up.
The sky began to hail with pop can sized ice balls raining down on the gun ship that dented both it and the Justicar. The very planet of Drakos began to lose atmosphere as the very presence of the infinite lord was draining all life energy from the once green world into a no mans land of ice causing those without protective suit's to began dying from lack of air as if they took a breath it would freeze their lungs solid.
"I will freeze you solid then suck out your energy from your cold body!" Vurdamis shouted again to put the Justicar off
The infinite lord raised his scythe into the air with both of his hands when a huge blast of fire washed over Lord Vurdamis. The dark being turned to its new attacker to see Queen Matriarch Natyria focusing her attack right on his face that started to melt away his very being.
The gun ship quickly flew over to the massive queen that dwarfed the gun ship so the Justicar could leap onto the dragoness and climb up onto her neck.
"Let me help you warm blood in sending this evil back to the void where it spawned from." Queen Matriarch Natyria asked as the Justicar stood on top of her neck with his sword ready
"Fine by me." Arjun answered
"All of you miserable cretins will die a thousand deaths for this set back!" Vurdamis shouted as he swung his scythe at his opponent who was now not the size of a fly to him
The Queen wrestled with the frozen arm of the infinite lord as she hovered on spot from her wings keeping her at eye level with Lord Vurdamis. The two massive beings struggled against one anther for control of the powerful scythe, the sky became transparent showing the celestial bodies of space as the atmosphere of Drakos slowly became non existent.
The Queen Matriarch blew anther powerful breath of fire right onto Lord Vurdamis' face allowing her to rip away his scythe and throw it across the lands but as the weapon flew away the infinite lord grabbed the Queen by the neck missing the Justicar by inches and fired a volley of his mouth projectiles straight into her face. Lord Vurdamis threw the bloodied dragoness to the ground with his scythe forming back into his open palm.
"The end of days is finally upon this realm of mortality!" Lord Vurdamis boomed
The Justicar climbed from under Natyria who groaned as she had dropped more than thirty stories and hit solid ice. Arjun could not even make out there was once a city any more; everything was covered in a frigid waste land of destruction that consumed everything around him.
Arjun felt the icy cold chill in his bones as his eyes tired, he struggled to move but he landed face first into a snowy dune. But before the cold touch of death could come near the Justicar his suit began to power up from an unknown energy source that brought all of systems back online at maximum power. Huge ethereal golden wings extended from his back side as the human yelled to explode in awesome yellow energies.
The ethereal yellow knight flew into the sky as all the cold air and environment melted around him like a blazing sun. The empowered Justicar hovered in front of Lord Vurdamis with his very being emitting powers given by the guardian himself, his view ports on his helmet were also aflame in golden energy.
When Lord Vurdamis turned around to see the flying ethereal knight the Justicar zoomed towards him with his blade drawn and swung in an upper cut fashion that cut a huge canyon inside the infinite lord's face.
Lord Vurdamis fired several volleys of his mouth projectiles at the glowing knight but when they all reached him they melted instantly. The Justicar struck again as he impaled the socket less left eye of the infinite lord with his blade causing the ice cold lord to howl in pain but as the Justicar got ready for anther attack Lord Vurdamis grabbed the human with his free hand and slammed him into a floating wall of ice he created seconds earlier.
The glowing Justicar shook his head from being disoriented when a frozen icicle impaled the human straight his chest but that didn't stop him from pulling the pillar out of him then tossing it back down to the ground.
"Its time to finish you off, organic." Lord Vurdamis laughed as his scythe began to crackle with dark energies
The Justicar flew away from the infinite lord so he could see his entire torso at once; he readied his blade as Lord Vurdamis prepared his most powerful attack.
"Divert all power to weapon." The Justicar ordered
His weapon disappeared in the amount of light that was being produced and with both of his arms the Justicar could barely life his super charged sword. The Justicar's body slowly became less ethereal as both his suit's power and magic granted from the guardian went into this one last strike against Lord Vurdamis. The Justicar drove deep in the core of his being to summon all the strength he needed to hold his weapon for those few more precious seconds longer. He lifted his blade into the sky and swung at the infinite lord releasing all the stored energy in a focused beam that was the shape of the motion of his strike. The crescent shaped beam tore through Lord Vurdamis before he could have done his own attack.
Lord Vurdamis thrashed about wildly as golden powers overwhelmed his form before he was consumed in a blinding explosion. The blast revealed the infinite lord was still standing as the Justicar's wings started to slowly fade away.
"This...will not stop the infinite...only slow us." Lord Vurdamis said as he let go of his scythe that hit the ground blade first
Lord Vurdamis exploded in hundreds of tiny shards, but unlike before they all fell to the ground in a beautiful descent as they sparkled and shined. The frozen winter land began to melt away revealing all the destroyed wreckage from the infinite attack leaving no trace that the battle against the frozen lord even happened.
The Justicar landed on the ground of the city streets where he collapsed.
