Fate Of The Twelve (Completed)

Chapter 46: not over yet

Third Person's Pov

"Young Lord, why has thy called thee?" The creature that the first ranker asked through the mind link of a familiar-contractor that they have established together as it stood on it's materialized body, it's large furry head turned towards Leirum, none other than it's owner and contractor.

It's soft white fur coat that seemed to have an iridescent glow was striped with black, resembling a white tiger and a lion combined together all over it's form as it looked below at the tied girl on the floor, the mighty beast's paws covered with bright blue flames.

"Young Lord. Why is that thy demonic energy is so strong yet so familiar? Has thy demon queen conquered thy lord's peer?" The creature asked curiously, walking in a circle around the tied up fourth ranker.

Indeed, he can feel the power of the demon queen and once, they had met in person during a war millenniums ago but thou hast' a different contractor at that time. He was the familiar of the King who had defeated the demon queen and claimed victory over her millenniums ago and he fought along side his king against the demon to rid the darkness of its queen.

Has the foolish demons succeeded in performing the sacrificial ritual? The beast thought as it's gaze wandered off to the demon queen.

"Arceus!" the demon queens deep growl of hate and despise rumbled and echoed in the valley but Leirum gave little notice while Arceus, the familiar of the first ranker and the guardian of the sky only continued to walk around the tied queen who began to struggle and fight against the entrapment that Leirum put her in but to no vain.

"Demon queen. Thoust is amusing. Seeing you in such despicable state after your years off terror millenniums ago in this world amuses thee." the champion of the gods said without opening it's mouth, the words directed to the queen passing through and she growled more in risen anger at the words.

"It seems that you have encountered her before." Leirum emotionlessly stated and Arceus nodded his big furry head in his direction as a confirmation.

"She's trying to possess my comrade's body and I as the first lord can't have that happening, how will I be able to get rid of this malevolent spirit from her body?" Leirum asked without any traces of doubt. It was as if the young lord was so sure that he can perform such task and that was one of the reasons that Arceus felt that it was only right for him to be owned by such mortal.

"The girl's already trapped! All of her powers and abilities are mine!" The demon queen harshly shouted with her voice and it literally shook the earth while Leirum blankly spared her a stare.

"Then I'll have to free her and get rid of you." He stated coldly while the demon queen started laughing loudly at his declaration as if mocking.

"Tis not possible. Her body is destined to be mine. All of these abilities inside her, locked away shall all be mine." She stated firmly in a tone so sure, the first ranker's forehead creasing and the guardian beast interestedly turning his attention at the trapped prey of his master.

Trapped abilities? The question went unanswered for both while the queen of the darkness remained laughing on and on with in obsessed craze in her.

"Arceus. How." The first ranker silently stated once again, not minding to take care of his wounds since he can't heal himself. The guardian beast nodded, walking to his contractor's side.

"Indeed, thee girl's trapped inside her own body with thy darkness choking her. Her soul to be precise is the one trapped in an abyss halfway to the spiritual world." The beast began, talking through the link between them as the wind rustled the bushes and leaves of trees.
