He has finished baking his treat for the Queen on her special day.

He is very proud of himself with how well it’s turned out.

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

Today is a great day to destroy something!

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

“Oh? Now this suddenly got interesting,”

His brow rises in a quizzical way.

“By all means, I’m all ears.”

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

Of course not!

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

Kahahahahaha!

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

Look at the handsome looking guy.

The other guy is good looking too, he guesses.

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

❝Kahahaha! I know I know, and as I promised, I haven't shown off those particular sounds. So Danchou can rest easy.

I've been capturing other sounds for my collection. A polyphony that even you won't shy away from.❞

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

❝Oh? You sound like you've missed the sound of me talking..

I can produce many other sounds I've captured throughout the journey if you'd like, Mr.Sparkle Swords.❞

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

❝....❞

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

❝Hm...hm....yes, that sounds like a great idea,❞

With a flourish snaps his fingers, the surroundings around shift back to the Tatsu Region.

[𝓛𝓾𝓭𝓰𝓮𝓻 𝓚𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓷𝓲𝓴 @RanbuKresnik]

Lobelia, but it helped me achieve my goal. Thank you. Now... Given your pact, we better head to Kumiko before she has some choice words.”

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

Another snap of his fingers, and now Ludger would see that the Tower's movements have come to a halt.

❝Well well, it seems like our job here is done. You look lime you're raring to go.❞ Lobelia says with a wide grimace on his face.

[𝓛𝓾𝓭𝓰𝓮𝓻 𝓚𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓷𝓲𝓴 @RanbuKresnik]

Plains, enough for even the whole region to see.

Soon after, Ludger can be seen in his Cromatus transformation, cladded in armor from head to toe, as it resonated with power.

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

@LastDragonVas @SerpentOfGuile Suddenly a chill runs down Lobelia's spine. The mental images of a very peculiar Dragon he's come to encountered, a being whom killed him and bathed in his own life force. The coldness in her eyes, the monster smirking in pleasure.

❝I'm sure we'll get you tuned up just right.❞

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

sounds and passionate as the magician himself.

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

That maniacal smile seems to have grown with the challenge. To the sounds of destruction, Lobelia is a maestro conducting an orchestra to a deafening crowd. The snap of his fingers, now glowing blue with aura, breaks more strings of life within this very realm that houses―

[𝓛𝓾𝓭𝓰𝓮𝓻 𝓚𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓷𝓲𝓴 @RanbuKresnik]

His pocketwatch was glowing after he replied to him, as proof of what he said. He feels that this plan could work.

“.... It's just one thing missing...”

He glared at Lobelia.

“I need you to hit me with all that you got. Just one massive attack will do.”

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

grows thicker with tension. Dark clouds now above their heads, only for a giant automaton figure to appear out of a pocket made from the fissures crafted by his giant metal fists.

Those arms reach out with needy hands. Eager to rip and tear, destroy and bludgeon. To create ―

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

His imagination.

❝Well? How did it feel?❞

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

❝𝐊𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐡𝐚! 𝐓𝐫è𝐬 𝐛𝐢𝐞𝐧!❞

The maniacal laugh erupts from the magician. In his hand was a conque, the other hand on his face as he stifles more chuckles at the newfound peril.

The sounds of agony. Each bone twisting and breaking. The 𝘱𝘰𝘱 𝘱𝘰𝘱 𝘱𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 ―

[𝓛𝓾𝓭𝓰𝓮𝓻 𝓚𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓷𝓲𝓴 @RanbuKresnik]

To death. His glare had a scowl, grumbling in pain and anger.

“𝑾𝑯𝑨𝑻 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑯𝑬𝑳𝑳 𝑫𝑰𝑫 𝒀𝑶𝑼 𝑫𝑶?!”

[𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐲. @ConqueCalamite]

Indeed. I can feel the anguish and the misery from being torn to shreds while you're right on the cusp of getting stronger.❞

He snaps his fingers again, this time the pain Ludger would feel is gone. His limbs back together again as if the agonizing pain he felt was only within—
