Luca returned to the others, seeing Jonah setting up magic barriers around Abazmantisk. While Serenity was giving aid to the people. Ciara, Winter, Death and Souls were busy with providing security measures around the barriers. Kael on the other hand was still floating in mid air.

"Luca. Everything alright?" Kael asked, passing a bottle of water to him.

"Yeah. Windgates just decided to declare war in Avalon on his own."Luca scratched his head, he was more confused to why Windgates acted so drastically. It was unlike him.

"It's fine, but the False Avatars are coming at us. Were they strong?" Kael asked as he polished Radiant Sonata, Luca could not give a proper answer.

"I don't know, Domain of the Monarch messed with my senses..." Luca said then they heard trumpets being blown across the horizons. The hymns of guns being racked. Armored vehicles convoyed like ants to the outskirts of Abada. A melody of guns was heard from where they stood.

"Guess they're here." Kael said as he stepped out of the barrier with the others. Seeing the vast army of a 50 thousand before them. 500 armoured vehicles. 50 Helicopters and 75 airplanes that was flying above them. The situation looked grim, the odds. If one were to go by the numbers. It would be illogical for a small group to face these numbers.

Yet, Luca turned to the others. Their eyes were a giveaway to how they were faring. Not fear or even hesitation. They all braced themselves for the forces above them. Were they the Goliaths or were they the Davids in this situation? The saying goes 'Those that take on giants, rarely live to tell the tale.' Kael readied two of his blades, Jonah was injecting energies into his fists. Ciara was turning into a maiden of flames. Death had his scythe ready, Serenity held a crystal ball. Souls and Salvation were preparing their lanterns. The lantern of souls and the lantern of salvation, both of them were not meant to be used as weapons but nonetheless. There is a way for them to be used as tools of war.

One housed the memories of all warriors before they died and the other housed the souls that did not deserve salvation. They can be used to conjure these souls into battle once again or for defense. Yet, Luca brought forth a Dane Axe out from his weapon set. Ripping off the clothes off his body. Putting the rifles and pistols aside. It was time for Luca to return back to an older time. Carrying the Dane Axe, and then Luca took a deep breath.

Kael and Jonah placed their hands on Luca's shoulders. The others placed their hand on Kael and Jonah's shoulder, creating a form of connection among the Avatars.

"Lead us to battle.... Avatar of War." Kael said to Luca. In that moment Luca unleashed a roar. The roar that shook the ground, the roar of the Avatar of War was not like the others. It was the beginning of a war. Luca's roar shook the ground. It was like a beast that was right before them. If the Avalon Army were mere knights in armor than Luca would be the greatest beast that was before them. That roar was something the entire world would feel in that moment. The call to arms, the call to fight.

Luca led the charge, running straight through the army. They were like specks of dust being blown away by the wind that was Luca's might. Guns fired at Luca, yet by the might of his axe. They fell. A swing that caused victims to splurt their blood and organs up into the air like fountains spraying water. Kael was behind Luca with Radiant Sonata and Black Symphony, the two blades were different. Black Symphony was blood thirsty while Radiant Sonata was focused on fighting. The sharpness of Black Symphony was evident, perhaps due to the craving of blood for its hands. The tanks and vehicles were easy to cut through then following it up with Radiant Sonata that slashed through the bodies inside.

Their guns were silenced by the Luca's pressence. The storm of lead left much to be desired. The airplanes came crashing down like birds being shot by hunters from below. They crashed down to their allies. Panic ensued, Jonah had fired off his magic while he was down here. The planes crashed into their allies. Causing more chaos on the battlefield. Kael went on to slash through everything, then conjuring cards of his element.

"World Arcana! Stop my enemiese from leaving the battlefield!" Kael said, slashing the world Arcana as it froze the enemies in place. Luca roared once more, shattering their armored vehicles. Leaving them all bare and exposed. They watched as Luca charged in with his swings, Kael with his blades and Jonah with his fists.

The Avalon Army finally understood what it was before them. It was more than just a set of small threats or targets. They were monsters, something further than anything else. They did not look human, their helmets formed to become the beasts they were made to resemble. Luca wore a lion's skull over his head, with the collar forming the mane. Another roar echoed throughout the world. The entire earth felt that fear. The Avalon Citizens in Avalon must be feeling it. Serenity had used her butterflies to convey the scenes to all over the world.

Where the world was watching the destruction of this great army of Avalon. The Avatars that fought in the frontline had blood trickling all over their outfits. This was not a battle, this was a slaughter. Greater beings toying with humans as if they were nothing, perhaps that sensitivity came from the Avatars seeing the worst of humans in the many cycles they lived. Perhaps that is why, they do not hesitate to kill. Kael was fighting without anger, only the calm that was in his veins.

He unleashed the elements with his deck of cards.

"King of Swords. Turn my foes to ash!" Kael shouted as flaming swords appear above him by the hundreds. Kael raised Radiant Sonata and swung it downwards. The hail of flaming blades descended upon the earth, turning the Avalon army into ash while they screamed the pain of their last fleeting moments.

"To wage war in an era of peace. Such foolishness. More foolish to those that believe in the Avatars of Avalon. Avalon is not blessed. No country is blessed greater or lower than the other. However, to take over a country and force your rule upon thme. Oh Avalon. You've reaped what you sow and now your Prince stands against you. As the Avatar of Duels and as the Ancient of Rites. The Ancient of Rites, the one who has taken the trial of the Monarch. Prince Windgates of Avalon, the one that stands before you who wages war against his own people... It is done as a reminder, that the Avalon Empire's righteousness still lives on by his blade. To wage war against his own people to correct the wrongs that has been made. Such is the fate of the Ancient of Rites, for when the people refuse to believe in reason. It is up to the Ancient of Rites to correct this wrong with his blade." The world heard Serenity speak up.

Then showing them images of Windgates slashing the administrators and nobels of the country. Leaving them as limbless torsos that were bound to scream in pain.

"Exdeath is a blade that follows its master. It has decided to leave those struck by it, to be in agony until the day they die... The day they die? It shall be determined by the Goddess of Death, and they are at her mercy." Death added on. Then showing the current state of the battlefield near Abada.

The entire army had fallen and only three of them were needed. The rest of the Avatars made barriers and chose to not fight. The camera turned to Luca who then knelt with the Dane Axe raised. He was chanting prayers for the soldiers that participated in the battle. While Souls and Death readied their lanterns to bring them to where they must go. Salvation merely eased the process for their souls to be brought on to their rest. Kael wiped the blood off his blades and sheathed them on his back. Jonah passed a cigar to Kael. The two of them did not light it, they waited for Luca to finish the prayers for the soldiers that participated in a battle.

When Luca finished, Kael and Jonah turned to Death, Souls and Salvation. Who gave a nod to them, Serenity just let the sight be seen by the people. Then ending it when the others finished their prayers and duties.Kael and Jonah lit their cigarettes, then turning to their allies.

They nodded as Kael and Jonah lit the cigar, taking a deep whiff as they lifted their masks to show their mouths.

"The Ancient awaits eh?" Jonah remarked to Kael.

"It's been a while since I've heard the name of Ancient." Kael remarked to Jonah.

"Serenity how is Windgates doing?" Kael asked Serenity who shook her head.

"He's just handling things the way he is." Serenity explained to them.

"You good, Luca?" Jonah helped Luca on his feet.

"I think Windgates plan is to have Avalon's Attention. He's trying to buy us time." Luca said to them.

"What makes you say that?" Kael asked, he was not clear as to what Luca was trying to say. So were the others but Jonah seemed to have picked up on it.

"The fact that he used the Domain of the Monarch, stating his intentions. Then now he's attacking Avalon itself. It only makes sense that he's diverting all their attention back to him because all of the armies that are affiliated with Avalon will turn to face him instead. He's smart but he's reckless." Jonah said to the others.

"Avatar of Duels but he's not meant for long battles. He can't fight any longer than 240 hours." Serenity said where they see Kael turn to Luca. Luca's face was worried even if he was wearing that mask, Kael could see through the facade. Luca was concerned for Windgates.

"Luca. If you're that concerned. Jonah and myself can go aid him." Kael was trying to ease that worry for Luca.

"Kael's right. Luca, you gotta stay here and guide your people. Don't worry about old Windy too much. I think Kael's got this. Avalon's an Empire but the home country itself is small." Jonah suggested to them as Kael's blades returned to their sheathes.

"Hey. We got fakes that are using our names remember? I just checked the list. Looks like there's 30 Avatars of War. 5 Avatars of Destruction. One Avatar of Peace." Death spoke up as he showed the list to them.

"Master... We do not mind staying behind." Kael turned to his Living Weapons in their unsealed forms. Black Symphony hugged Radiant Sonata, then patting her head.

"Master, please take Radiant Sonata with you." Black Symphony said, Kael looked at Radiant Sonata who seemed a bit worried.

"No. It's best if you two remained here. My cursed weapons will do the job." Kael said as he turned to Spring that opened a portal to Avalon.

"Let's go!"
