Gate Guardian - Song of the Frozen Soul

PHASE 47 - TIARA TURNS TO BEASTMODE! DON'T PISS HER OFF!

TIARA TURNS TO BEASTMODE! DON'T PISS HER OFF!

Back to my fight with Diadem…

I was already backed on the edge once again. Diadem clones have been launching fire tornadoes from his swords, and all I can do is stay on the defensive and slash those drilling air projectiles.

Even if the quick swinging of my katana is ten times faster than a normal samurai, it's not enough to keep me holding on. Even if I'm aided with Tiara's healing, some still made its way to make a shallow cut to my legs and biceps.

The white dragon that Tiara summoned went above me, and with its last ounce of strength, it rained more glitters upon my wounds. That rendered me back to my full strength and endurance, but I'm already tired of being a moving target to that genocidal maniac.

"I'm tired of this farce too, you know." Diadem commented. He gathered wind and flame energy from his right hand.

"<Infernal Blizzard>!!!"

As soon as he swiped his hands in the thin air, a gigantic flame hurricane was formed! It was so powerful that it acts like a vacuum and pulls everything in the surroundings! The pillars, the walls, the ceilings of this golden hall has been absorbed and left nothing but ashes due to the blazing flames!

I just stared at the giant flame pillar that was about to swallow me whole. I can't believe that even with healing support, my powers is not enough.

"<Assimilate>!!!" 

It was Tiara's shout. When all hope in my heart faded, there she goes in front of my face, bringing a light along the way.

She touched the flame hurricane, which disintegrated as she absorbs all the energy from that spell. After ten seconds, the flame blizzard faded.

I noticed that the hall is no more. Now we're in the middle of a barren wasteland, but there are still golden rubbles all around the place.

"Rikkun…"

I was astounded when the shrine maiden turned to me. She is already using her gauntlets and not her staff. Her long hair is glowing silver once again, and her eyes are crimson red. But her irises are marked with the golden cross. She now has a long fluffy fox tail on her back that keeps waving left and right like an excited dog.

"... Leave Diadem to me, okay?" Tiara's smile is so charming. All I can do is nod with a smile and trust her in this fight.

She can control her <Silver Fox Mode> now. I trust her power after all. She managed to endure my attacks back when I used Cthulhu's full power. Fighting her twin at this point will make a good match.

"<Jakiro Twin Fist>" Tiara muttered. Then her hands were covered with dragon-head-shaped red aura.

"So you will fight me, your twin brother?" Diadem said as he crossed his arms, his metal armor clanking as he moves.

"...I can't let you hurt Rikkun any longer!" Tiara's face became serious.

Those words are excessively sweet as if I'm the princess and Tiara is the prince charming…

"Then die with that man!" Diadem was so enraged that he magically created ten floating swords around him and charged it with flames!

"<Pyro Twirl Volley>!!!"

But immediately, with a single shockwave… Tiara disappeared! She was next seen when she was already a meter away from her brother!

"<Saphira Air Palm>!!!" Tiara shouted, as her hands made a vicious strike to the Black Flame Swordsman's chest! The impact was so powerful that it made him launched into the air.
