The Final Battle Part 2
A tall man with reddish black hair stood before us, Antares had seemingly limitless power radiating from him, his aura matched the ones of Jin Woo and mine combined.

"A fake...why are you with one such as her, Shadow Sovereign?" The Dragon Emperor demanded of Jin Woo, he ignored him and drew his daggers, Kamish's Wrath, would a blade made of Dragon Bone hurt the King of Berserk Dragons? I don't know, but I drew my scythe and prepared to fight.

"This fake's going to kill you, Antares. Don't underestimate the power of the human will." I whispered, blades made of metal were strong, but they melted under intense heat, no matter the material, it takes magical energy to even keep it holdable, much less in shape.

[Mana: 87 562/97 532]

Ten thousand to keep it in shape, huh. Doesn't matter, I'm going to go all out at the start, there is a huge difference between one with a hundred thousand mana, and one with ninety nine thousand, as if they had broken some sort of threshold barring them from the rest of the higher beings.

Jin Woo is one with a hundred thousand mana, second maybe only to Antares, Ashborn, the original Shadow Sovereign was said to be equal to Antares, Jin Woo should be equal, with me as the tipping point, we can win.

The main army of destruction appeared behind him, I instructed the Ancient Grades below to kill each other before running forward, Jin Woo and I came to a silent agreement, there were seven more Ancient Grades in this army, an army capable of destroying Earth in less than a day was mobilized against two Sovereigns.

"Do you see the difference between our armies, O Shadow Sovereign?" Antares taunted, his army had hundreds of thousands of variations of dragons in them, Sky Dragons, Dragonewts, Ancient Grades, everything. While Jin Woo's army stood with a hundred and thirty thousand, normally one would think that you should surrender but...

"Charge."

I knew what we would do, five spaces were cleared once the last surviving Ancient Grade was killed, I already had a ticket to infiltration within the army of destruction, but out of the five I was going to control, only one did. Looking up, I saw the reason why, there were signs of a barrier being placed, Yogumund, the Sovereign of Transfiguration, was allied with Antares, the greatest sorcerer inside the Chaos Army wouldn't just stand still.

"Arise."

The corpses of the proud dragonewts rose once more as soldiers of the Shadow Sovereign. I swore when I joined Draw Sword two years ago, I would risk my life for the sake of Japan. If this monster kills Jin Woo and I here, who would stop him?

Antares had an equally strong spiritual body defense as he had physical defense, I can't break through anything he has. Jin Woo has to be the one to kill him, I can't do it.

Fire bloomed all around the Sovereign of Tranquility, Sky Dragons charged, Ancient Grades roared, but hard skin was nothing to her, minds were controlled, spiritual bodies destroyed, to the Sovereign of Tranquility, only one enemy stood before her, Yogumund, the Sovereign of Transfiguration, a streak of dull blue moved through the army of destruction at speeds faster than sound.

The army of destruction was only in my way, nothing can get in the way of my happy ending, not the Sovereign of Beastly Fangs, not Yogumund, not even Antares, even if it draws my final breath, I will die not with honor, but with peace, to experience love, happiness, everything working as a hunter robbed of me.

I want to die happily, normal life is riddled with pain, pain of the loss of family, pain of fighting with your family, but at least my family is one that will understand me in the end, these dragons are not enough to stop me from finding my happy ending, not one, not a million, not a trillion, I will find it.

[Activating Skill: Absolute Focus]

Darkness engulfed the world I was in, only one stood before me, Yogumund, the Sovereign of Transfiguration. Purple circles appeared around him, lighting kept shooting out, chasing me down, but none of them connected, run, run faster than what he can shoot.

Barriers were placed on his spiritual body, I'm feeling his nervousness creep in.

[Ruler's Hands]

Lighting hit the invisible fist I created behind me, Yogumund's defenses were getting hit over and over with Mental Control. Barriers were put up, and they were broken, lightning was shot, and they were blocked.

"I'm going to break you."

A crack was made on the battier over his spiritual body, I felt it. I've suffered enough, I'll push through this last battle and settle down.

Another crack was made, Yogumund's spiritual body changed color, he's even more nervous now.

"Caught you." I whispered as I grabbed Yogumund by the collar, I could see only one emotion in his eyes, nobody needs to be the Queen of the Mind to know what he was feeling.

Fear.

Fear of losing his life.

Once your spiritual body breaks, it's game over.

No reincarnation, no taking over a new host, you fade into nothingness.

[Activating Skill: Blade of True Tranquility]

"Die, Antares will be done for soon." I muttered, his spiritual body was cut straight in half, and turned to dust in my hands.

I looked up at the swirling battle of fire and shadow in the air, fire and shadow clashed, the army of destruction was destroyed, now all that's left is the commander.

[Activating Skill: Mental Control]

What the-

My head hurt, so badly.

I looked down at my hands that were stained red from blood.

[Health: 1376 / 58 841]

Ah, Antares's mind is too strong, my attack just came right back at me. He really is the true higher being, the Sovereign of Sovereigns, only being opposed by Jin Woo.

Jin Woo was brought down to his knees, we've lost. Antares is going to destroy the whole world.

The sky broke open, spears of light came out and impaled the Sovereign of Destruction, I was overcome by despair for only a few seconds, but hope came back once the winged angels came out.

"Thank you, Sovereigns, for ending the war." The brightest angel out of the bunch's voice boomed.

Ahahahaha time to put this badly-written fic to rest.
