&#x3C;p&#x3E;Chapter 163:&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Indestructible Force&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Lucy&#x2026;&#x201D; Yosef called out to her. His voice was sincere, almost worried about if Astlin remained alive or not. Sure, he cared, since the woman once served under his father.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy approached Yosef, in an upset manner grabbing him by his collar. She picked him up off his knees easily, nearly curling him with one arm. &#x201C;Yosef. You shouldn&#x2019;t be up here! What were you thinking you, idiot!?&#x201D;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Yosef looked away, while the debris from the punch left the hole in the main deck steaming. His eyes focused on the scene, before looking away to a glowing red aura. The aura surrounded the cracks halting the sunlight outside Darmin from entering. Forcing the contents of Darmin to be completely trapped inside with the Black Death approaching.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Yosef had Lucy let go of him, looking at her with so much remorse. &#x201C;I believed I could reason with her. Astlin never was a bad person. She only is around bad people. She could never harm me.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Even the greatest of us can fall to the pressure of the worst people in this world,&#x201D; Lucy commented.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;A sudden shockwave under them knocked the two-off balance. Using each other equal the balance of the sudden shake. The main deck collapsed by the bow of the ship. In front of the bow, part of Moby Dick fell to pieces. From the great earthquake beneath them, a large butcher sword shot out into the main deck.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;I cannot believe I let a pitiful champion like you, put her hands on me!&#x201D; Astlin shouted, climbing from under the ship. Her eyes were full of rage, with her pirate coat, carried in the wind. Her sword sat at her side, effortlessly being moved around.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Yosef looked devastated turning to warn Lucy. &#x201C;You have to go. Let me take care of her. Her ability is too strong for any champion to go up against!&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Astlin looked at the distant prince enraged. &#x201C;Warnings mean nothing. She wrote her death certificate the moment she laid her hands upon me.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;I never actually punched you. The air did. So, if you were harmed by that tiny wind, I only can imagine what my fist can do!&#x201D; Lucy jawed towards Astlin.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Yosef attempted to step forward, but the surging power on top of the Moby Dick made it nearly impossible for him to move. Lucy and Astlins vigorous energy launched a full-scale tornado of momentum between them.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Astlin readied her blade carrying the butcher blade over her shoulder. &#x201C;Those sorrow words have sealed your fate!&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy jolted and hopped into the air for an attack on Astlin. Astlin ducked under the momentum carried from Lucy&#x2019;s jump to block the oncoming missile. Lucy clenched her fist and launched it past her chest. She aimed toward the center of the main deck, below her. Astlin held her blade over her head preparing to block the attack.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;I haven&#x2019;t seen her ability in a fight. If I had to guess, it is with those weird forcefields she uses. So, I will just use my air rai to blow them away!&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy enraged yelled out in a battle cry with her fist firing out. A great amount of wind rai carried her towards the target below. A great missile of wind sounded off, coming to a complete halt simultaneously. Lucy&#x2019;s eyes widened in shock from the abruptness of emotions that left her. Astlin smiled, leaving Yosef to bear an untimely truth.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;I told you&#x2026; you reaped your fate getting cocky like that little girl.&#x201D; Astlin said, with Lucy&#x2019;s fist connected towards her cheek. A great light red glow surfaced around the entire body of Astlin. A warmth of nutrition and immunity to any great threat against her.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;What the &#x2013; &#x201C;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Raigun&#x2026;&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;No, Astlin! You can&#x2019;t.&#x201D; Yosef yelled out. The shivers in his voice distinctively displayed the awareness of her ability. One that is on par with those of the unbeatable. The red aura around her body created a great force sending Lucy to the edge of the ship. Her back shot into the rail, creating a cackling sound on the wood. She mumbled the slight pain, after being shot away by force itself.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Yosef worried about attempting to reach out to Lucy. Astlin stood in his way, holding her large butcher sword in one hand. The blade rested between both her breasts. All the way above her head. She carried a sorrowed look, one blanked with emotion. The feelings she displayed earlier vanished. Her eyes painted a black canvas of darkness.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Indestructible Force.&#x201D; She muttered.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy slowly crawled back onto one knee. Whipping away a smudge mark on her lip. Astlin stood in front of her postered up properly. Yosef continued to reach for Lucy, yelling out.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Lucy! You must run now. No one has ever beaten her in this state. You &#x2013; &#x201C;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;It won&#x2019;t matter. Either way, her fate was sealed the moment I revealed my Raigun. A pretty innocent girl has no reason to be on this sacred battlefield with me.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;Astlin interrupted Yosef. Her voice spewed out a force making any man belittled in this situation.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Astlin &#x2013; &#x201C;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;False prince. When will you stop calling me as if we are on the same side? I serve Layek and only Layek. The only reason I have not killed you is that it is Layek&#x2019;s mission to finish you, himself.&#x201D; Astlin coldly stated.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;So, you just act like a dog, following her masters&#x2019; orders. I may be some pretty innocent girl, but I have a mind of my own. I wouldn&#x2019;t jump off a bridge if Jai told me to.&#x201D; Lucy responded.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Yet, he brings you all to Darmin, to die&#x2026;&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy bit her lip, holding her tongue. She looked away from Astlin, towards Yosef. &#x201C;Just go. Leave her to me. Trust in me.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Yosef stood stagnant. Astlin did not respond to Lucy&#x2019;s plea to Yosef. Only turning an eye to see what he would do. He sat in place for a moment, thinking over a response. Eventually, the pressure of the situation came to him. He gave up trying to save Astlin. Only being able to look away in pain, wishing he could have done more.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Layek will not kill me. You would never let that happen Lady Astlin&#x2026;&#x201D; Yosef stated, slowly exiting Moby Dick.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy and Astlin stood in silence, waiting for the other one to make a move. Astlin turned and noticed Yosef off the ship now. &#x201C;What a blind fool. How can he say such things about this battle? Deep inside his heart, he knows you and the others will fall to Unspoken Truth. That is a fact.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Maybe. Even if I said we were outgunned. None of us will ever back to you all. We have come too far to stop now!&#x201D; Lucy said.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Then try to strike me, girl&#x2026; if you truly will not back down, I will let you hit me first.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;What!?&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Attack me, before I attack you, girl,&#x201D; Astlin repeated, holding her sword over her shoulder now.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Is she serious? This has to be a trick.&#x201D; Lucy dropped her jaw to the floor in shock. Thinking it may have been a ploy. Her second-guessing always got the better of her.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;I will give you a countdown if you won&#x2019;t attack. I just will.&#x201D; Astlin sternly said.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;5&#x2026;&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Huh!?&#x201D; Lucy worried, began to ramble all her thoughts. &#x201C;If I attack now, then she will pull something. But if I stay here, she will attack me. What is it?&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;4&#x2026; 3&#x2026;&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;I&#x2019;m running out of time! It has to be now or never. I will just hit her with a devastating air cannon punch to stop her in her tracks.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;2&#x2026;&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy realized the situation is dire. Leaping towards Astlin in a hurry, with her fist clenched. A whopping air followed behind her fist, directed straight toward the pirate. Lucy&#x2019;s face was stern and stuck in a state of rage.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Astlin stared at the oncoming missile and smirked. &#x201C;Hmph.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Lucy yelled out. &#x201C;Take this!&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;The punch connected with a surfing tornado blasting the main deck of the ship. Barrells and nets flew around in circles. The old wood of the ship began to teeter and disassemble apart from the nails. This punch could move mountains with force alone. The landscape under those same mountains would suffer a drastic natural disaster.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;Everything but Astlin was affected by this punch. She remained in the same position with the punch landing on her cheekbone. Staring blankly at Lucy. Her eyes asked if that is all she could muster. No bruising or scratch marks showed on her face. Lucy opened her mouth, displaying bitter disbelief.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;How&#x2026;?&#x201D; Lucy asked, as Astlin bodied her to the other side of the ship with one blow. Her body spun more than a hay barrel does. The ribbon bun that kept her hair in place, dissolved into just a piece of cloth on the floor. Lucy&#x2019;s long angelic hair flowed down her back. Astlin stood above her, treating her like an insect.&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;Indestructible Force. For as long as I remain standing, you cannot harm me in any physical way.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;So. I am not going to be able to harm you with punches&#x2026;&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x201C;No. I am possibly the worst matchup for you, girl.&#x201D;&#x26;nbsp;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;A war that has caused a continuing rift between two worlds!&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;Mysterious rifts open around the globe, transporting regular people to another world. On a normal day a teenage boy, Jai Marshall and friends are sucked in. The group is forced to serve as champions of the world. This sequence of events is not at random considering Jai&#x2019;s older brother Omar was formerly a champion of this world. Jai will do anything to ensure the safety of his friends inside a world where the unexpected is constantly broadened. Even though the group is equipped with ancient abilities from past champions, the task they have been given is a great mountain to climb. Can Jai and his friends survive this world?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
