Wood lead Oliver through the Castle Garden as they took down enemies. Wood with his wooden katana and Oliver with the Vampire Killer.

"Pathetic piece of crap..." Wood said as he jumped onto a cyborg Frankenstein. It growled at him as it tried to push him off with its brute strength, but Wood waa pushing his body to his very limits. Its cybernetic right eye glowed in red but before it could do anything, it was immediately impaled by his wooden katana.

The white haired aspiring detective's eyes lit up upon hearing its cries of pain as an unhinged grin formed on his mouth, he backflipped away as the Frankenstein's body crackled in electricity... Before exploding.

Oliver blocked the slashes of an Ax Armor with its ax as the two dueled. It raised its ax on the air as it began vibrating as it tapped a few buttons on the handle, causing the very blades to be ignited in purple flames. It ran towards him, desperate to cut him down. Instinctively, Oliver rolled out of the way.

He rolled onto a wall, the sounds of battle in the Garden still going on as he looked at Wood briefly, who's slaughtering enemies in such a sadistic manner. The wooden katana wielding young man had just decapitated a cyborg zombie and had stabbed the wound of its neck, impaling the wooden katana deeper as the sounds of flesh cutting inside can be heard.

When Wood pulled it out, a heart was sticking out from its blade, what makes the sight even more disturbing is the fact his grin still never left his face. This caused Oliver to cringe slightly, but he regained his composure as a bunch of Ax Armors along with the one that attacked him are running to his direction.

He looked at where the Ax Armor had missed him, the wall there was gone. Multiple layers of walls up ahead were destroyed too, up to twelve to be exact... Such destructive power...

He grunted and ran, letting the Ax Armors' battalion gang up on him. He tried to focus energy onto the Vampire Killer while at the same time, prevent his head from getting cut off by the Ax Armors. They threw their axes at him, he rolled and jump to dodge them, shooting glances behind him from time to time.

After a while, he managed to get enough focus on his whip. He took a deep breath and sighed as the whip got ignited in flames. He swiftly turned around and moved the Vampire Killer to the right before whipping it into the Ax Armors all at once. In synch, they all combusted, their advanced equipment flying everywhere.

Wood giggled maniacally as he walked. His footsteps echoing throughout the Garden as he stepped on puddles of blood. He sheathed his wooden katana as he slowly calmed down, regaining composure as he looked up. Seeing a young woman rush here."H-hey!! Ju-!!"

 "Erm, call me Wood

 "Erm, call me Wood. For now, Eva." 

 "Oh, I see." the woman named Eva said as she stopped once she was near him and Oliver who just walked to his side. Wood smiled a bit at her, but this one is the most genuine Oliver had seen him have, his eyes are more open and his smile was gentle and caring. "This is Oliver by the way. The Belmont we're sent to assist." Wood said to Eva with a small smile. She waved at Oliver. "Heya, Eva Kimura here. Me and Wood had been best friends ever since elementary, he's err... Hehe, a bit crazy in combat and a bit weird but trust me. He's a nice man deep down" she said with a nervous chuckle as she patted her best friend's back, who just pouted."Uh um, hey." Oliver said awkwardly as he and Eva shook hands. But Wood gave him a slightly... Angry gaze?

They continued to traverse the Garden, Eva's fighting style was related to throwing kunais and shurikens and combat based on mimicking the way a ninja moves. She also combines it with the usage of advanced gadgets.

She ran up a wall and drop kicked downwards to a Malachi, making it growl as its head was hit. She would immediately throw a bunch of kunais at it as Wood ran towards it and slashed its left arm off along with its leg before Oliver ended it by throwing a consecrated ax at its face, following this by stabbing it at the heart with a consecrated dagger and whipping it across its neck with the Vampire Killer.

All three of them backflipped away as it burst into flames.

Wood glared at Oliver and slammed his wooden katana's blade into his face. "i was supposed to deal the final blow!"

Oliver grunted and almost fell over, he immediately grabbed Wood's blade and threatened to snap it. Only for the Wooden Katana-wielding young man to raise his foot to his crotch. "Go on, break it! Only God knows how broken your stupid crotch would be!"

Eva rushed over to Wood in worry and grasped his shoulder. "Wood!... Please, calm down. Its okay even though you didn't deal the final blow. You're not alone!" she pleaded as she held onto it, her gaze gentle but her grip firm. Wood scowled at Oliver, who was relieved that Eva broke up the fight. 

They continued to push on, soon they reached the boss door and entered it. Up ahead, an Armor Battler stood up ahead, wielding an Ax and a Scepter. Oliver ran towards it and threw crucifixes on it, dealing some damage. It would crouch and jump on top of it, attempting to crush him underneath its weight.

Oliver dashed out of the way and panted, his MP bar isn't enough to use a Grand Cross right now. Wood charged at it and slashed it a couple of times, he jumped up to slash its helmet, only to be slapped by it into the left wall as he grunted in pain.

Eva tapped her belt as she sprinted up the wall, throwing kunais as it ran towards her and attempted to crush her with a punch from its fist. She jumped up and landed on top of its head, banging her fist from  it to distract it as it tried to shake her off.

Wood gritted his teeth and got back up as he began to walk towards the Armor Battler. Grabbing out a handkerchief from his pocket and wrapping it around his wrist. Oliver furrowed his eyebrows. Wondering what he will do.

He raised his fist onto the air as it was ignited in white flames so bright that Oliver grunted and had to cover his eyes, struggling to do so. But Wood seemed to be unaffected, his cold glare remaining on his face.

"Eva, keep distracting him!" 

"I know, I know! Beat him up while I'm on him!!"

He began running towards it, his footsteps echoing. He leapt up from the ground with such great impact that the ground shook slightly which caused Oliver to almost fall over, propelling himself in the air towards the Armor Battler and grinned maniacally.

He began to break into a giggle as he got closer, and closer, and closer... Feeling the adrenaline rush overwhelmed him so much that he can't help but revel in the chaos... Before breaking off into sadistic laughter as he punched it right at the chest, causing such a great impact that caused the ceiling to start crumbling, debris fell down which Oliver and Eva dodged as Eva leapt off as the Crazy Armor's pieces shattered in an instant. Nothing was left but a pile of tiny fragments of it, so tiny each of them that they just look like a pile of sand...

Oliver looked at Wood's work in amazement and glanced at him as the debris fall stopped. There was silence. All that can be heard now was the sound of their panting. Oliver soon decided to break it as he spoke. "That was... Awesome..." he said, finding his mouth hanging wide open. However, Wood didn't say anything and sighed. 

Eva just chuckled softly, "Wood, you should try to congratulate yourself sometimes." she said teasingly as she patted his back and rubbed it gently.

"Hmph." he simply replied, rolling his eyes and looking away, but deep down he was thankful for her and Oliver's praise. He treats himself and his own body as mere pawns...
