Jalen muttered, "You will see," as he brought both of his chained blades together.
Thinking to himself, His speed is still insane even in my transformed state, but I've almost broken down his entire dodge pattern. I'll be able to counter his dodging almost instantly. I have a solid 70% chance of hitting him, he calculated as numbers flashed in his head.
Erebos's wrist slowly shifted from yellow to orange, and he thought, I don't have much time to play around. I need to go all out from here on out!
Jalen yelled out, "Cursed Bearing, Shared Pain!"
His foot crunched off the ground, ready to erupt forward at Erebos. As soon as he did, a black pool opened beneath him, and he saw a face shimmer below as his feet sank in an inch.
Erebos closed the distance in an instant. Jalen saw an odd necklace dangling from Erebos's neck as he swung his fist.
Jalen struggled, his feet stuck in the black pool. He twisted his body, trying to free himself as Erebos's fist came closer. Erebos's punch connected with Jalen's jaw, sending him reeling, but Jalen managed to bring his blade up in a desperate arc.
The blade sliced into Erebos's stomach, a thin line of blood marking the successful strike. Erebos's eyes widened in shock and pain as he staggered back, clutching his wound. Jalen, despite being thrown to the ground, felt a grim satisfaction at the sight of his injury.
Jalen picked himself back up, gripping his stomach as bits of blood trailed from his wound. "Perfect," he snarled through gritted teeth. "I might have sustained some damage, but so have you. And now I've locked you down from using your abilities and regenerating!" His voice roared with defiance as he pressed his paw to his wound, which began to glow lightly and slowly close.
Without pausing, Jalen lunged at King Griswald, his blade aimed for the kill. King Griswald's eyes widened, but he reacted swiftly. The floating crystals around him shot forward, forming a protective barrier that intercepted Jalen's strike.
The impact sent shockwaves through the air, the clash of energies lighting up the battlefield. Jalen pushed against the barrier, his blade sparking against the crystalline shield. King Griswald gritted his teeth, focusing his power through the scepter to reinforce the barrier.
As the barrier cracked and began to shatter, King Griswald brought his hand up to a level position, his fingers splayed and trembling slightly with the surge of power. "I demand you return to me, Dragoon," he muttered. The soul of the Dragoon, which had latched onto Jalen's back, detached and flew towards Griswald just as the barrier shattered.

The soul melded into King Griswald, who sidestepped gracefully and plunged his own hand into his chest. With a firm grasp, he pulled out the Crystalline Scepter of Absorption, its multifaceted orb glowing ominously.
"A mighty weapon you have, but my weapon will prove more powerful. I am ready to protect my kingdom and my world. I know I stand on the right side, and I refuse to allow my world to fall into decay!" Griswald declared, his voice echoing with conviction.
Jalen, ignoring Griswald's grandiose words, prepared for his second attack. He dropped into a low stance, stretching the chain of his sickle to its furthest extent while keeping a wary eye on Erebos, who had moved to a corner, his wound still bleeding.
With a powerful eruption off the ground, Jalen launched himself at Griswald. But just as he surged forward, he felt a sudden tug on his leg. He glanced behind him to see the Yami King, his body stitched back together with blood, a black shadow gripping Jalen's leg.
"This same trick again?" Jalen snarled, his frustration evident.
The Yami King smirked, his eyes glowing with malevolence. "You can't escape the shadows," he hissed, his grip tightening.
