Diluc grunts as he felt pain surging into his body from the potion the Abyss mage threw

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" Kaeya grits his teeth, seeing his brother heaving and breathing hard, trembling as if he was fighting something

"Well, if you want to know, your 'friend' is now what your Favonius Knights call him...a monster!"

Kaeya turns to look at Diluc, only to see him weakening, and lies still on the ground as the injured Knights watched in horror

Kaeya lunges forward, his sword impaling the mage as it screeches, turning into black dust as it disappears

"Diluc, stay with me!" Kaeya pleads, but earns a low growl from him

He slowly turns, opening his eyes, and Kaeya gasps in horror

Diluc was gone...his eyes were a darker shade of red, his canine teeth turned to fangs, and he growled, as he stands up to his full height, taking his claymore out of thin air

"BEHIND ME!" Rex Lapis creates his shield as a pillar grew out of the ground, hitting Diluc from the chin as he grunted and fell back down

His shield, made of geo, yet see through, swirled around them as everyone gathered behind Rex Lapis

Diluc laughs, and roars as he swung his sword at the God

The injured Knights ran away, as the group stayed, watching a spear of geo and a flaming greatsword clash as Rex Lapis grunted

"But how?!" He pushes him back as Diluc uses a combo of pyro, swinging forward as he slammed it down, then slashed sideways, finally, jumping high, twirling in the air, and slams his weapon down, creating fire as it destroyed the shield.....the strongest shield in Teyvat

"RUN!" Rex Lapis grunts as Diluc raises his giant sword, burning as it was coated in flames, and a giant Phoenix exploded from his swing, flying towards the Lord of Geo as he was burned from the push and explosion as the Phoenix flew up, taking the God up, and landing with a plunge

Kaeya, saddened from what was happening, noticed Klee hugging Albedo tight, whimpering as the others were trembling with fear

"Albedo! Is there a way to change him back?!" Kaeya pleads as Albedo shakes his head, but his eyes widened as he motions his head to the controlled brother

"Everyone leave! I'll deal with him!" Kaeya places his sword away as it disappears behind him, running towards the giants fighting as the God was caging Diluc with his pillars, hurting him as waves of geo flowed from the pillars

"Don't hurt him!" Kaeya cries as Rex Lapis nods and his pillars disappear

"DILUC!" Kaeya calls as his piercing eyes stared at the human, hungry for blood

Kaeya runs off as Diluc slashed Rex Lapis on the shoulder, screaming as his adeptus wanted to hurt Diluc, but stops him as Xiao obeys

"MORAX!" He cries as Aether noticed he healed himself and laughs, "I can't die, Alatus, you know this."

Diluc uses his skill, and Kaeya barely dodged them since the fire had a wider range to burn the ground, due to being a giant

Kaeya looks back as he heads to Stormbearer Point, the highest area to be close to his height

Diluc roars and swings his sword, breaking the mountain Kaeya was climbing on as rocks rained down, almost hitting the Calvary Captain

"DILUC, IT'S ME!" Kaeya yells as Diluc swings in a downward way, slamming his sword down as debris and stones jumped, scratching Kaeya as he runs as fast as he could

Diluc leaves him, as Kaeya made it to the tallest mountain, noticing he was gone

"Oh no..." He looks around, not being able to see him as he hears a roar from behind

He was grabbed by Diluc as Kaeya takes his sword from out of nowhere and slashed his brother's gloved fingers

Diluc growls in pain as Kaeya climbs onto his brother, making jis way towards the shoulder as Diluc tries to grab him

Kaeya swiftly dodges his hands as he slashed his neck, seeing purple blood ooze out as he hisses in pain

It was the poison from the potion, but if he continued to do so, he might kill him, possibly

Diluc tries to grab the agile Captain as Kaeya jumps off from his shoulder, grabbing onto the bright red hair as Diluc tried to catch him

Kaeya uses his hair to swing and climb as Diluc swishes his head, making it harder for Kaeya to hold on and feeling his grip loosening from the shake

He lets go and glides down, plunging down and tries to make a run, but a giant hand slams him to the ground as Kaeya grunts

Diluc puts more pressure as Kaeya screams in an inhumane way, feeling his body being crushed

A bomb bounced and explodes his hand, and raises it as Kaeya weakly, yet quickly, crawls away from him

Diluc swings his arm as Klee was swooped from her brother as Albedo summons the jagged stones, impaling Diluc's gloved hand as Kaeya watched him run away with Klee in his arms

"DILUC!" He yells as he gained the giant's attention, feeling a grip around his body as Diluc tightens his grip slowly

Kaeya felt the crushing of his body as he screamed in agony, tears streaming from his good eye as he felt weaker by the second




















"I





















Love....





















You....





















Brother...."





















Diluc immediately stopped at his last words, his eyes widened as he stared at his brother, dying in his hand, reminding him the one memory he didn't wanted to remember...





















His past
