Chapter 54 - Necrozma

I had teleported to the frozen continent, looking for something from Guy. I wanted a test battle from someone under him to test Necrozma's performance.

Me, Nyx and Amanises were currently walking to the study, if you could even call it that, and found a very intense scene. It looked like Guy, Rain, Misery, Dino and Velzard were in the most intense battle of their lives. They didn't even take notice of our entrance. They were…

…Playing giant Jenga.

From what I can gather from watching this intense battle royale is that their not using magic to advantage themselves in the slightest. Their was magic being used though, they've completely eliminated any forms of airflow to prevent any external pushing of the tower, infact they've prevented all external factors.

Honestly, you could feel the intensity of this battle from the other room, even Dino couldn't sit down as Rain put the next block on top. The tower shock considerably, stopping everyone's hearts but remained stable nonetheless.

'It was a terrible idea to make this for them.' I complained to myself in my heart. Guy looked like he was about to be sent back to the Daemon realm just to hide out from the constant anxiety attacks.

As Dino took out the next block. The pillar began to wobble and move out of place, the tower of stress was making everyone look like their were about to die, but all of them were to stubborn to concede.

CRASH

The tower had crashed onto Dino's head, he didn't get hurt but he did lose even more will to live, "YEEEEEEES!" Guy celebrated throwing his hands into the air in triumph. He turned on the radio to play, "WEEEEEE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, MY FRIEND." I immediately turned it off.

The sudden loss of music caught everyone's attention caused everyone to finally realise our arrival, "You know, Jenga ain't this serious."

"You shut your trap! It was you who gave the idea of the game in the first place." Rain shouted at me despite having no authority to do so, she's not allowed to do so because I have a higher standing than she does. The prince of darkness is not some fancy name but a title that Guy made official, meaning any one under Guy is mine to command, including Rain and Misery.

I'm basically royalty at this point meaning if anyone were to make an enemy out of me, they would be making an enemy out of the entire frozen continent.

Anyways back to the topic at hand, "Can we get on with what I came here for in the first place? Look I made something new and I need either Rain or Misery as test dummy's."

"Why us!?" Both Rain and Misery were startled.

"Don't feel offended. It's just if they did it then it would end up as a Trainwreck. And why do you sound afraid?" I said as I pointed to Guy, Velzard and Dino.

"Don't take offense to this, but you're kinda an intellectual psychopath." Rain replied fearfully.

"I take that as a compliment."

"Alas. Lord Simon, what is it that you wanted us to test." Misery asked professionally.

"I created a golem with a couple… uniquenesses."

Guy was surprised by my enthusiasm. The last time he was this enthusiastic was when he introduced Nyx and Amanises, " Do you guys know what it is he created?" Guy looked at the two aforementioned individuals.

Nyx replied curiously, "No, all we know is that he slaughtered a dragon and scrapped its body for parts as well as imprisoned a holy spirit."

Her words caused everyone to look at Simon in fear, I quickly tried to defend myself, " I did not imprison the spirit, he did it willingly. As for the dragon, I only destroyed the body, their soul is still intact and in golem, willingly I might add."

Rain and Misery both decided to fight whatever I had created. They were both pretty prideful in their abilities but knew of my reputation.

I summoned Necrozma causing everyone to look at the oddly shaped, floating golem. The slick crystalline design, the use of draconic body parts to create a more humanoid shape, the concentration of thick light element coursing throughout the metal.

Rain and Misery knew this wouldn't be a regular golem but… what the hell is this thing.

"Are you two ready?" I asked from the side. I started the match and both sides didn't move a muscle.

Rain and Misery were wondering what the golem would do. In contrast, Necrozma was trying to figure out what to do first, the personalities were deliberating it's first action, and then it acted.

It teleported itself Infront of misery and slammed it's fist down into the demon. She dodged out of the way fast enough but was still grazed by the blow.

She checked her wound and found that it had the spatial effect, preventing most forms of healing.

Rain teleported behind it and and tried to use an extremely powerful mana bullet, but Necrozma lifted it's giant claw hand and erected a barrier, reflecting the bullet away.

"Would you mind telling us what is going on with this… thing." Guy inquired about the weird golem.

"It was inspired and I wanted to initiate a social experiment involving cooperation and whether unlikely teamwork can work efficiently."

"Unlikely teamwork? What do you mean by that?" Dino inquired from the floor.

"Necrozma had undergone the same phenomenon that created Nyx's personality, an ego birthed itself from the metal and made a third personality."

"A third?"

"Yes, the point is to create three completely different personalities. One of holy alignment(holy spirit), one of demonic alignment(the dragon) and one that is neutral(the armors ego). I also made it that to initiate an action, all three of them must come to agreement to do so." I can already imagine one of them making a suggestion, the second going seconded and the last going motion carried.

" You think that Misery and Rain has a chance of winning?" Amanises asked me.

" I doubt it, despite the restrictions I intentionally placed on it, Necrozma still has power of an elemental soul and an element dragon and a body made from divine steel." I gave my opinion earnestly as Misery and Rain were currently writhing on the cold floor in pain and Necrozma.

" I guess I should explain it's unique skills. First is Devourer, this is a renamed version of Envy so it's capabilities should be self-explanatory. Second is Prism, it's a manipulated version of Absolute guard that uses spatial mirrors to, instead of blocking, redirect and reflect attacks away. Although I am waiting for them to master the effects of Prism."

When I finished talking, we turned our head to find that Misery and Rain were completely dominated and on the floor.

————————————————

" I'm sorry, you two. I didn't think that they would go that hard." I was currently doing a full on Japanese bowing pose with my head against the ground, directed towards Misery and Rain.

" No need lord Simon. We should be apologising for our incompetence." Misery exclaimed which Rain followed with a whisper, " Plus, thanks to you, we got to see Guys caring side firsthand."

I forgot that due to Elysia, Guy has become much more… well human. He had meticulously taken care of his sister.

" Did you apologize to them?" Guy asked from behind me."

"Yeah."

"Good boy!"

"…"

I'm not prone to ragebait and consider myself pretty patient and mature, but I will not tolerate him saying that to me.

Without warning, I shattered his cranium.
