!CANCELED! The Demon King(Zatch Bell)

Chapter 13: The Second Spell: Gaborudo

Dating Astrid was a lot of fun. At least, in the beginning, we tried to hide it from my mom, as well as our classmates, for fear of... negative responses... as most of the school thinks I'm a girl... I was able to keep it a secret from my family for about two days, they just would t like that I'm dating some of a different religion, which turns out to not be a problem, she just didn't want grandkids that weren't raised Jewishly; since I don't really want kids there was no problem. People at school didn't know for over a month, a blessing of being a social misfit I guess, no one pays attention to you.

For both of us, it was our first relationship, so we were way too into it. We spent all the time that we could spend together, together. With that, we put the whole demon king battle thingy on pause, much to the dismay of the demons, especially Luna. We still spared... occasionally... very occasionally, ok we stopped for a bit, we were more focused on each other than the demons.

All that changed when reality came crashing down upon Astrid. It came in the form of a battle. Astrid and Luna's first actual battle against someone who actually wanted to hurt them.

I know little of the details of this battle, for one I wasn't there, and I didn't hound them for details.

this battle happened on a Monday night, when I was at a religious youth group. Apparently, Astrid and Luna were going on a late-night walk/ride and this old man and a small creature that seemed to be a mix between a squirrel and a very small human, I am not making up that description Astrid came up with it and Luna agreed to said description. Then she drew it and I also had to agree that it was, in fact, a human squirrel hybrid.

Despite its appearance, it was apparently the demon was super strong and had a spell that negated Luna's spell, they said that it would negate all of Luna's spells; which just meant Garankeru. Needless to say, my friends were not in a good spot. They both got pretty beat up, and their chances of winning were slim when the midnight blue book started to glow, and Astrid to it as a chance and exclaimed the new spell: Gaborudo and that spell worked! apparently, the foes spell only negates spells that existed when it was cast. They seemed to not know that part of the spell because this shocked the opposing team so much that, along with the aid of the new spell they were able to quickly turn the tide of the battle and burn their musted colored book. Now, you ask, what does the new spell do? It enlarges Luna's horn and makes it harder like on all parts sharp like a sword, ok maybe not that sharp but definitely not something you'd want hitting you.

After that battle(once Astrid's wounds fully healed, Luna's healed much faster even though they were more severe(and by much faster I mean within two or three days)) we started sparing again, and we found that like the flight spell and the mindreading spell, when one spell is in play Astrid cannot cast their other spell, but she did try coming up with strategies emphasis on the word tried, as she ignored suggestions from me and Luna, because, well, she's Astrid.
