Sehki's flowing shadows smacked the debris off, cracking his mangled and hurt bones, huffing as his brain processed every horrific step Lumin took to reach this end goal and the cracks in the ground along the way.

"Illuminate the darkness huh. I thought a principal was supposed to protect their students."

"Your darkness is a barrier to this world's progress, and my light expands to every student here."

"Is that why they're cowering in fear from you," trying to prepare himself for another sneak attack, pointing to the conscious members of campus either away from them or commodering the Health Center.

"They'll see the light soon."

He looked to Lumin's allies. "Twin, Ram, I don't know the extent of your crimes," recalling Delta was killed before Ram arrived, putting the pieces together. "But when I beat him, I want us to talk. There has to be a better way than eliminating one entire species off the map."

Twin shook their head. "Only strength decides this world's future."

He sighed. "So be it," palm thrusting them forward. "Neptune's Necrosis!"

Though he threw the sea of shadows at Lumin, the sinister Zodiac StellArts user parted the black flood with a howl generating a bright aura roar, punching a lion aura shaped fist at Sehki.

The young adult sank into the shadows, speeding past more long range attacks as he circled it around. To his shock, the last hit targeted the freshly arrived militia, half of whom were now at the Health Center while the other half was the frontal force.

Shoot! I have to do the brunt work while they wear him down, get it together!

Sehki augmented his body in Ophiuchus' power, flying in at full speed that pushed him back. Watching Lumin laugh at his own feet dragging through the ground, he threw fire and slammed debris into his face.

And prompt got his attempt to circle back around him destroyed with a golden backhand.

What the? Good strength and reaction time?

Lumin split in a trail of light, and his shadow warned him to summon walls to block the mighty claws ripping through them. Sehki looked up at his giant snake construct. The more power he used, the more the giant snake shrunk.

He slipped into the shadows to escape, but Lumin manifested a golden hand of light, prying into the ground and hauling Sehki out by the head. He barely connected their shadows together to pull it out as his principal threw him overhead towards the helicopter.

And was charging up a dark, golden ray of light from his mouth. Sehki morphed both their shadows together to absorb the blast, grating his teeth unless he parried the spell before landing at the helicopter's rail steps.

The reporter tapped on the glass between them. "Prince Sehki, you have to move, now!"

The cameraman pointed at Lumin preparing and releasing breath rays with his aura manipulating the proper flow to help shape them better with a loud declaration the whole campus could hear.

"Will you protect them or yourself?!"

Sehki endured the golden rays, trying to absorb them while the news crew tried flying away.

"Despite his crimes, my parents were also responsible to some extent. Sacrificing people to help the Voids," eyeing Twin. "If they shared that with the other kingdoms, maybe none of this would've happened," accepting their inaction as a flaw they shared in common.

Gerald. If I had noticed the signs earlier and tried to get you help, maybe things would've been better.

He slipped off the rail steps after the next blast to the viewer's concern and Luminite's joy, who ceased charging to laugh at his defeat.

With a flick of his finger, a column of shadows drowned the Leo Horrorscope, which he grinded on, flying down like a diving battering ram with an axe kick to his face.

"I'll expel you from the university myself!"

Lumin had to push through the column, chucking him into the ground. As he was about to get slammed, Damien burst out of his sweater to hit Cluster's eyes with a burping fireball before peeing on him.

"Bloody Fornax!"

The young Cerberus distracted Lumin long enough for Sehki to lift the lion powered being's shadow out to save his Cerberus from his slash and punch him down.

"That was close, thanks doggie," nuzzling him and re-positioning himself away while Luminite walked up off the liquid.

A lion's aura covered his arm, pointed at the Health Center as he leapt towards the building. "I'll cut the number of your allies down to none!"

How do I-My allies: that's it! Thinking of Candy's shaping, he altered and surfed up the Transit's silhouette to reach the other building in time.

Flicking up the shade from the entire Center to block the blast, he bounced off it to knee Lumin far away into the chest.

Lumin's body grated against the floating dark reflections to rebound, but Sehki took a page from Lorena, connecting and stretching the shadows of both structures, smacking him left and right.

Leo's claws drifted to hold both black walls in place, charging like a golden star. Sehki formed his whip, swung around his body at the right moment and struck him away, and dived in between both ebony platforms.

Irritation was the name of the game, jumping in and out of both before he could touch either one, draining his energy with small, quick slashes.

The negative essence of Leo punched and poured golden light into both, blasting him out.

"Your forecast of fate will not escape the light!!"

"You worked and manipulated your way up to become the principal of the most powerful school of fae and can't even dominate a student who missed half the semester?"

The anger in Luminite's face grew. "You should've died on the cliff all those months ago! Calypsa must've been too sentimental to watch your heart extinguish!"

"And confessing to crimes on national tv," making him reveal his crimes to the whole world with the newscopter still reporting, watching his confidence break.
