"Alright... real talk. Who the hell managed to figure out what a DYSON SPHERE even is??!" Shock was the first thing the group saw from Axel's face, even in such excitement. He'd never imagined someone would be willing to take such an idea and weaponize it with Oyama-Don. To make someone take the idea of the Sun in a literal sense, it brought a genuine wide-eyed expression that he can't help but respect. Almost everyone unanimously pointed their finger towards Solomon, though this aversion would be enough for Applin to try and take an easy hit, creating a hammer for herself, thwacking it into the gold to see how much it was taking in. The Gold reacted viscerally, exploding and nearly catching her body, but the energy that leaked out would allow her to see it spill, a rupture that dropped the metallic clay down to its natural state, clanking down in a harsh thud. "Yeah, as expected, this is gonna be a hassle and a half. Warm-up aside, I am NOT spending any more energy in dealing with a potential gauntlet of doom and despair." Axel's comment were accompanied by a twirl of his cane, hearing the creaking sounds of stone as Eligos was setting up the charge.
It changed in form, the Sundial's numbers visible, his eyes widening further as he watched the Goetia take on the Monster's Magic, quickly causing those outside to miraculously breach in and swarm in attacks through the massive hole beside him. Axel, in a way of countering this misfortune, would set up his own dice, his energy visible as it flowed into them.
4. 6. 6. 5. 6.
In the blink of an eye, his body would remained unfazed. Closer detail was seen that he was vibrating, his speed multiplied by the result, letting him choose to dodge objects by such phasing, as if he was intangible. "You kids really don't know how to let up, huh? As much as I'd wanna keep entertaining this idea of dying, I have a mission to uphold here. Maybe later?" His quick snide was met with the Card Magician and the Stellar Sorcerer shooting in both fronts, mines being spawned and stars formed, swarming around to try and catch him in the explosion. Right as they did, the group was able to hear heavy footsteps, as Axel would speed away, phasing once more, letting the newcomer take the blast for him, watching as Eligos was surrounding the area to absorb the energy that may come out of it. It must've been fused with the Monsters to act as part of the landmass, to extract and breathe out whatever served as its new weapon.
KA-BOOOOOOOOM!!!!
Smoke and heat aside, the explosion barely made a dent at the intruder: A hulking man with a bull-like mask, his own body adorned in tattoos and markings, wreaths for bracelets around his wrists and ankles, hide from a lion acting as his pants. Accompanying him were two girls, both half the size of the warrior, same tattoos, but with the lion's hide fully covering their bodies, the head as their hoodies. Both of them shared the same eyes, feral and cat-like in appearance. "See yah!" Axel remarked, before speeding off, letting him jump down and phase through the ground in order to cut the distance ahead and meet the Descendants in Oyama-Don's den.
"HEY! WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING!?" Harvard shouted, trying to rush ahead, but the bull-like man was quick to the draw and aimed for a devastating sweep, pushing the child right into the group, bowling them over in the force.
"The same place you're going to: Hell." His voice was gravely, as if tobacco ate away his throat. His tattoos began to glow as he'd feel the misfortune ready itself again, quick on stomping down and enduring the magic bombardment from outside, another explosion detonating onto him, the rubble quickly scattering, before magnetizing into his body, a maze-like shape forged as it surrounded his arm, becoming a set of armor. The linework was incredible, finely tuned and shaped to not have any bumps or rough erosion from outside, as he lets the two girls come down and swarm in their own way. "Your 'heroes', The Seven Wonders, are dead. Fallen by the hands of Crimsoñia Bathory. You shall come next in the afterlife." He'd bellow, already prepared for a filicide.
Even with such booming threats, the children remained unfazed. As the two women drew close, Solomon was quick on casting down Red Sea Ark, flooding the area, letting it shift so that it can flush out the two from the massive hole, allowing Eligos to go under and heat up the water, boiling it, just enough to damage them and prevent them from entering inside Calibren's castle. "Cool, you killed what's essentially really strong guards. Big deal." Despite such truth, Alice would wince at hearing such terms, a bitter pill for her to swallow. Solomon was able to notice such hurt in those words, being careful in his language considering she must've spent a lot of time with them. It did, however, made him wonder if she reacted because she saw them as her potential family and cohorts, or in that she trusted them to fend off such strength.
"And you six are supposed to be stronger than them...?"
"We have a guy that can summon the SUN here, I think we're more than okay in assuming that."
"Brave, yet foolish. His will has been already set: Nobody leaves Calibren alive. We have already gauged your ranks. None of you, and I repeat, None of you, can match to the same ranking as a Dragon like I am."
The group blinked at his statement, staring like deer in lights, turning towards each other, both in remembering the small test they took, or in trying to understand what such ranking was in regards to Applin's and Alice's experiences, scratching at the back of their own heads in trying to remember such. It wasn't long until Zazel broke the silence. "Ah... Are you sure about this?"
"Positive. Nobody can escape Deltoro's grip. Nobody."
