Buddyfight Ace, Path To Liberation

Path To Liberation, Maiden Anew (Chap 57)

Synopsis: A dark knight with his own sense of justice, facing the maiden with a pure yet uncertain heart. Will Lost Ren dominate the game, or will Shiloh overcome her weakness and turn the tables?

Gar Trio: We're The Gar Trio.

Garcat: Hey folks, sorry that we're away. Because we had to take a mandatory vacation, as you can see.

Gardog: But we're back now, and let's have a look at the previous match.

Garbird: When you think about it, I can feel Hou Ren's anger loud and clear. I didn't even fall asleep for once.

Garcat: Hou was able to summon the power of ZEUS. The King of the gods. And he was able to corner J Genesis in one turn.

Gardog: And even J Genesis, using Origin Breaker and his other trump cards, he was still no match for Hou's Will To Survive. BUT. Even with the match, we got a lot more info on Kyoya's true motives, and the pieces finally come together.

Garcat: But aside from what's what. We have one more match to settle before the finals. It's Shiloh Vs Lost Ren. Say it with me. Buddy...

Gar Trio: FIGHT.

Anime Opening: Jo No Ka.

J Genesis is seen walking in a dark and unknown Hallway. Suddenly, Shido and Davide immediately appear and step in front of him.

Davide: Where do you think you're going?

Shido: Say Bye Bye. Get Him Boys.

Deathgaze & Gallows suddenly appeared and attacked the latter. However, Origin Breaker came out of his card and single-handedly defeated them. However, part of the wall is kind of wrecked. Later, Sophia & Bigmachine also appear behind them.

Sophia: We warned you about this.

Bigmachine: Biggest.

Biggest and Astraeus attacks. Now Lost Ren appears via teleportation and chains and locks them down.

Lost Ren: Disaster force, Activate. (Does So)

Now Lost Ren's Dark Core activates.

Lost Ren: Corrupted Snare.

Lost Ren glows his eyes and immobilizes everyone except for J Genesis and Origin Breaker.

Davide: Why you....

Lost Ren: You'll owe me for this. Go.

J Genesis: (nods) Come on. (Origin Breaker turns back into his card)

While J Genesis escapes, Shido, Davide & Bigmachine were able to break free, and all three of them attempt to get Lost Ren. But Lost Ren disappears instantly, and the three of them bonk their heads and are knocked out. Lost Ren reappears. Sophia also breaks free and attempts to chain him using Gleipnir. Lost Ren bunts the chains off using his own chains and attempts to electrocute her before she escapes via portal.

Lost Ren: Coward. (Pulls out his phone and looks at a picture of Shiloh) It's your turn next.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Shiloh is preparing her deck at her waiting ward. Her Brothers come in for a visit.

Elijah: Hey, Shiloh.

Shiloh: Oh, hey, guys.

Judah: You working on your deck?

Shiloh: Yeah, but...comparing my skills to his...this match isn't going to be easy.

Micah: Come On, Shiloh. Don't doubt yourself. You made it this far, and well, you can do this, you know...
