Promethean Chronicler! You guys all have your opening! If you’re going to do it, now’s your chance! Chiaotzu, if your Time Slip can work on more than one person, I sure would appreciate the help!’
‘G-got it!’ Chiaotzu responds first, still kinda stunned by what you’ve done.
‘Kid you’ve made our job all the easier! We’re ready!’ Hearts cheers back, clear excitement and genuine praise in his tone.
“THAT YOU EVEN DARE ATTEMPT THIS IS REASON ENOUGH TO END YOU!” Yalbadoth roars out, and with his immense speed he’s right in front of you now. He attempts to ram a clawed hand into your mech’s chest in an effort to pull you out of it, with you sidestepping it and blocking several shards of darkness that are flung at you from the side with this new Sword of Destruction. He swiftly moves behind you, attempting to stomp your mech in the back of the head as spheres of Destructive purple energy form in his hands.
But he flinches. Just long enough for you to spin around and slash at the spheres in his hands, canceling them out.
“SILENCE!” he yells out. Looks like someone’s taunting him telepathically, yet his focus is still on you.
You back away again, the Sword of Destruction pointed forward as he lets out an enraged yell followed by a chop downward that leaves a trail of crackling dark energy in its wake. You parry it, but have to quickly turn your mech’s body as he tries to lance you with his clawed arm, the attack thankfully a bit more telegraphed thanks to another slight flinch.
“What’s wrong, has this gotten you scared, oh all-powerful Archon?” you ask, adding to the taunting.
“YOU WILL BE QUIET AS I BRING YOU TO YOUR END!” he demands, four orbs of chaotic black energy appearing around you and sending bolts of power at you, something you can tell is infused with Shadow Magic by how heavy things start to feel. Twirling the Sword of Destruction around, you manage to deflect the attacks right back at them and break them apart.
“No, I think you’ll listen to every single word that needs to be said! Look at you, you’re panicked just because ONE person managed to take a step closer to an even playing field with you!” you call out, pointing the blade at him again. “You’re a sore loser and have done everything in your power to cover up that fact!”
