Chapter 448 Banishment

Keng didn't know how he knew. The strange connection seemed to grow like a cancer. He found himself sprinting in the direction he felt him.

'What if something bad has happened?' Keng wondered. The flashes of that monster in Lee Seng's soul world appeared in his head, again. 'It couldn't be that thing, right?' Keng shook his head. 'It couldn't be.' Another scream echoed through his head. Everything began to spark around him as he continued forward.

"What's happening?" Keng slid to a stop. Dark Matter exploded all around him, arcing around him like a water bubble.

"Found you~" Eleven chuckled. A pulse of wind exploded in front of him. A horned Lee Seng stood in front of him. The skintight suit wrapped around him as Eleven turned. "To think all it took was someone like you to lower his defenses." Eleven wagged his finger at Keng.

"Where's Lee Seng?!?" Keng shouted.

"Lee Seng?" Eleven tilted his head. He took a step forward as the armor coursed with purple energy. His purple eyes studied Keng as Keng defensively kept his distance. "I know you're connected to him. You should know what happened to Lee Seng."

"Argh!" Keng swung the dagger upwards, releasing a wave of gravity with it. Eleven's smile faded as a gravity barrier reflected the hit back to Keng. Keng flew backwards, sliding across the forest ground as Eleven shook his head.

"You're weak." Eleven sighed. He took a step forward, purple Dark Matter oozed down to his left hand forming a purple longsword. "I'll do you a favor and take what's mine." Eleven lifted the purple longsword into the air and stabbed the longsword forwards. The sword collided with Keng's gravity barrier, easily ripping through it as the purple sword plunged itself into Keng's body. Silver wisps fluttered out of Keng's body as the deimon's Dark Matter pulsed bright. A large magical circle appeared around Keng and Eleven.

"Soul Crusher." Eleven smiled. Purple energy burst out of the blade as purple energy poured into the magic circle, arcing towards the edges of the circle and flying straight back towards Keng. Keng watched as the wisps forcibly flew into the sword. Keng pulled the at the sword, cutting himself as he struggled to pull the sword out. "YES! YES! GIVE ME IT ALL!"

"Dark Pillar."

Eleven had no time to react as darkness erupted all around him. Keng felt arms wrap around him, pulling him back. He ripped from the longsword, blood gushing as the rest of the purple energy dissipate.

"ARGH!" Eleven swiped the dark energy away as Elder Jyu'so landed in front of Gorrum and Keng.

"Ohoho!" Jyu'so smiled. "You were right, Gorrum. You did feel his energy."

"Are you okay, Keng?" Gorrum looked at Keng. Keng groaned as he continued to bleed. He clutched his chest. The purple energy wouldn't disappear.

"It's… not healing." Keng groaned.

"Of course it's not healing." Eleven grinned. "We're one in the same. You wouldn't think I knew what could stop your healing?"

"A smart one, huh? Who would've thought three would've came from one?" Jyu'so chuckled. "I guess I should show you all your place!" Jyu'so rushed forward swinging his fists at Eleven as the Deimon pulled backwards. Jyu'so quickly overpowered the Deimon.

'This old geezer moves quick. I can't attack him at all.' Eleven grunted as he deflected one hit and flew straight into a large shadow fist.

"POW! Right in the face!" Jyu'so happily commented as Eleven bounced and rolled away. Eleven stabbed his sword into the ground, sliding to a stop. "I'm in such a wonderful mood. I'll spare you if you give up, demon."

"Give up?" Eleven smiled, looking up. "I don't know what that is!" Eleven launched himself straight for Jyu'so. His sword lighting up behind him as his wicked smile grew. "Cascade Rush!" Purple energy ripped from where Eleven was, following him as he swung. Jyu'so slammed his arms together, the large shadow fists appearing in front of him as Eleven swung. The purple and black energy collided as the delayed Cascade Rush slammed against the shadow fists.

"Will… He be fine?" Keng groaned as Gorrum poured a red liquid onto Keng's large wound. He groaned in pain as the wounds began to stitch back together.

,m "He's feeling like new. Don't worry about the Elder. Worry about yourself! I'm surprised you aren't passing out!" Gorrum stuck the bottle into his Void Storage and pulled another red bottle out. He uncorked it and tossed the cork into the Void. "Here's another one. Drink this one." Gorrum stuck the bottle in his mouth tilted it. Keng had no choice but to drink it. He gulped the fruity drink down and felt the pain subside. The blood disappeared and his wounds completely closed as he watched Jyu'so and Eleven fight it out.

"Argh, you old man! You're tougher than I thought!" Eleven growled as he slid backwards. Elder Jyu'so chuckled as he lowered his fists to his side.

"Demon, you are way too weak to even do anything to me. Give up and give me the Vessel and I shall let you go, free from him." Jyu'so pointed.

"Why would I give up what's mine?" Eleven smiled. He gripped the sword tight and rushed at Jyu'so.

"I didn't want to do this but this will have to do…" Jyu'so lifted his arms. Intricate black magic circles appeared all around him as a single black magic circle appeared next to Keng.

"W-what's happening?" Keng asked. Gorrum released Keng and immeidately pulled backwards.

"Shadow Exchange: Binding Curse." Chains erupted and shot into Keng's chest. Keng winced as he felt the magic circle appear below him. Chains fired off at Eleven, many flying past him as Eleven tried to deflect the chains. The chains latched onto anything on Eleven. The purple longsword, his legs, his arms, chest and eventually a chain plunged into his heart.

"What the hell is this?!? What're you doing to me?!?" Eleven shouted, demanding an answer. Jyu'so simply smiled and looked over at Keng. Keng was staring at the magical circle. His eyes were trying to decipher what was happening, but it couldn't.

"When it's time, you'll fight my pupil." Jyu'so began to speak. Keng's attention pulled to Jyu'so.

"What?" Keng quietly asked.

"This is your last test, Keng." Jyu'so spoke up. "Finish the task the gods have given you and return to Earth. In a couple of weeks, you'll face this demon, again. When you do, Lee Seng's life hangs in your hands." Without waiting for Keng's reaction, Jyu'so slammed his hands together. The chains pulled from Keng, revealing a black intricate wisp with runic script. The large black circle below Keng lit up as the wisp disappeared.

"You think I'll—" Eleven's shouts turned to screams as black flames erupted onto the chains and lit him up on fire. Jyu'so began to weave his hands together, mumbling under his breath as he watched Eleven. Eleven grabbed onto the chains, hands burning as he managed to focus on Jyu'so's smile. Jyu'so pulled a hand back and flicked two fingers at Eleven.

"Leave our Realm and wait for your fate, demon! Banishment!"

Everything happened so fast. Eleven flew backwards as the flaming chains flew into his body. A black portal ripped open behind him, pushing him threw. Jyu'so quickly clamped his hands together like he was praying and watched the portal shut.

???, Earth Realm

Eleven shot out of the black portal, slamming into a car. The portal shut as the black flames continued to eat at him. Eleven groaned. He began to pull when he felt a piece of the car's metal embedded into his back.

"Argh!" Eleven grunted, forcing himself away from the metal. He flew forward, rolling on the concrete as he flopped onto his back. He groaned as blood poured out of it. His body began to heal, lighting the pain on fire. He screamed for quite awhile until everything subsided.

"ARGH!" Eleven slammed his fist into the ground, cracking it. He pushed himself off the ground, shattering everything around him with gravity. "That old geezer! Why is everyone showing up to save that brat! That VIRUS should've been mine!" He stomped on the ground, creating small earthquakes around him. Eleven had never experienced losing like this before.

"I should've gotten all of his energy!" Eleven shouted. He glanced down at his arm and watched as a small portion of it lit up in silver. "I only managed to gather 20% of his energy! ARGH!" Eleven lashed out at the crushed car sending it flying into the side of a building. The car exploded as he lifted himself off the ground. "I need to completely take over this body! That virus would've done it!"

Eleven could hear the sounds of people coming out. It was early morning and barely anyone was out. He flew into the sky, disappearing.

"I guess we'll have to go with Plan C. I'll use this energy to subdue him for now!"
