Manifest: The story

Chapter 110: Return to me [Road to the Incident Arc]

Vidin was in utter chaos, obviously evacuated childen and citizens as pro-heroes trying to hold off the Illusion Devil, a fear of illusion was released upon Vidin to destroy it, they were doing a great job, but now the host, Selena, the girl who is brother to the man who leads the Third Order was back at the school searching for Lubo's corpse...

Selena (Thinking to herself): Where could it be, damn since he was on the second floor, it may take a while longer, we do need to know if he was the one so we can confirm our kill to the boss of the organisation.

Selena looked out of her own curiosity, if he was alive and lost his memory, that would be great since they could exploit whatever manfiestation he may have in the future, but if he remembers, she will execute him easily since he must be weakened.

She continued walking over the place searching and moving through the rubble and the dust leftover by the explosion and the collapsed parts caused by the devils.

But with sometime of searching, she found nothing up until she saw a heart floating and then as she looked a bit more into the area, there it was.

Selena (Thinking to herself): F-Finally...

Selena runs over it, but then she feels a presence and stops running towards the body as she saw both of the arms going up to touch the heart, but then suddenly the right hand reached and a small wave appeared sending Selena back as a smoke appears surrounding the area where he was and that blinded her for a bit until the smoke cleared and she saw it, Lubo... She was surprised, he somehow lived, but how is the question she asked herself.

Selena: No way... How did you survive, you were crushed and hurt by the explosion and hurt by my brother's devil twice, how did you?!

He stood there menacingly, he still had the injuries, but they were healed up a little, but the damage is still there.

Selena: So you are gonna play the silent game huh?

Lubo (...?): Not really.

Selena: Then how did you survive, answer me!

Lubo (...?): Doesn't even realise I am not that boy.

Selena: W-

Selena suddenly felt a rock shaped into a horn stabbing her in the left arm and she screamed a little before looking at him who was now closer then the far distance originally.

Lubo (...?): Screaming in pain? How cute.

Selena: You... Bastard...

Lubo or atleast whoever that was, clearly not acting or fighting like Lubo just got closer and punched Selena hard sending her back, cutting her arm in the process off with that rock shaped horn by the kick sending her as she hits a football goal point hard, she was still staying up as he appears further away from her, both staring down each other.

Lubo (...?): Might reveal more about myself to be honest, I may be him, but just another side of the same coin, something you shouldn't have messed with, Selena.

Selena coughs blood as she looked at him.

Lubo (...?): I'm the one in the shadows, darkness taking over, but protector of the two sides, my name is not important, my identity does not matter since I am just another Lubo of anyone's eyes, but now you gotta pay for what you've done.

Selena attempts to outspeed and blitz his opponent, but he dodges each fast attack with ease, usually a lot of people would struggle with her true speed, but he was different for sure, she confirms it now, this time after the 24th attack she felt like she could hit her and tried to hit him, but Lubo grabbed her and then slammed her on the ground twice and threw her as she hits the football goal spot again hard against the metal.
