《Devour》(37) Chapter 5: Eclipse is the name?
Advertisement
"Thank you, Jio... For helping me get stronger... Since we tried this so many times only to fail but not today!" A voice comes from the light, and Jio's heart skips a beat after noticing the twins' power.
As the light dims, a figure slowly reveals for everyone to feast their eyes and speculate what happened to the twins: Long black hair, sharp facial features, and a well-built body covered with crystal-like scales. When the light passes and illuminates the crystal-like scales, everyone notices rainbows light around the body like an illusion from a perfect being from heaven.
"You are welcome, Eclipse! But the fight is not over yet!" Jio replies as he makes up a name for the twins as one.
Everyone in the Dome cheers and is eager to see action and fierce fighting but watch the two in the ground walking towards each other, and those who practice magic can feel the power the two control around the two competitors. Everyone is rooting for Eclipse, and when both exchanges punch, taking turns without stopping, everyone can see the force and pressure in the air of each blow.
Jio controls his strength to equal Eclipse to have a fair fight. Still, in Jio's eyes, Eclipse's body quickly adapts like Jon's ability, and he'll be in trouble since he doesn't know Eclipse's full potential. He might be digging his own grave, but this is the only way he knows how to help the twins quickly.
Jio takes three Fire Stones for each hand and shows Eclipse how it's done. Everyone watches Jio's action and notices that he uses the Magic Stone with ease, unlike how he eats the stones at the beginning of the fight.
With Jio's superb control, the fire around his hands compresses until the Fire Stones are exhausted. Releasing all the heat energy from his left hand to the sky, destroying the Dome's metallic cage as the whole area ramble.
Thanks to the Ancient's help and ability, everyone inside the Dome is safe and sound, while everyone reminded them how human magicians' real potential.
Jio achieved this feat thanks to Jon's ability to protect his body from almost everything. He can be as reckless as he can be with energy and magic without hurting himself if he loses control but hurt his friends and foes alike.

While Eclipse tries to digest what's happening, Jio is also dumbfounded with his control like it's his first and realizes his body stored energy/magic and uses it like with his last.
An attack that goes boom.
Eclipse looks at Jio with horror, but it can't give up now that they have achieved this transformation and tries to use their dagger. It notices that the blade has an afterimage like shadow manifestation that mimics Moon's dagger.
Bored waiting for Eclipse to make a move, Jio takes a Wind Stone out and casts multiple wind blades, hoping Eclipse to use his dagger to block or attack his spell. Eclipse looks at Jio with admiration since it knows that Jio can defeat it, but it seems like he's trying to bring the best it can achieve.
*Tell us, big sister... Who is this Human?* Eclipse thought out of nowhere.
The Soul Dagger that Eclipse possesses can easily block or cut what Jio cast, and eventually, the dagger's aura extends and starts to look like a sword with a shadowy aura. Jio smiles, and his right arm armor melts, morphing into a sword and fusing the fire magic from his right hand.
"What the HELL! An armor? Is it not his scale or skin or something?" The announcer let out confused and started questioning himself.
Jio and Eclipse charge with all their might with their sword clashing in the center, releasing the energy within their weapon.
Jio knows that Eclispe's dagger equals his blade, but in terms of experience, Eclipse is no match to Jio's weapon mastery. Whenever Eclipse finds an opportunity to strike, Jio always blocks its attack and somehow manages to seize the energy blade with his left arm. Eclipse quickly backed up, but Jio somehow knew its planning and used the sword to create a blazing slash that followed Eclipse's action.
Eclipse doesn't know what to do and copied Jio's action, focusing the blade's energy and its own, slashing the first wave of flame curtain and creating something similar to destroy the remaining attack. Even with Jio's slashy attack with more power, Eclipse's blade ability is superior thanks to the shadowy energy that pushes and supports each strike.
Jio is happy and leaps forward and head-on using his left hand, destroying Eclipse's attack to nothingness, but in reality, Jon absorbs the attack to be used in the future. Everyone watches Jio in disbelief and pays attention to Jio and Eclipse's next move.

Eclipse tries to block Jio's sword and find itself a deep cut across its chest, and it could be life-threatening, but the body adapts to Jio's sword and survive.
"It's getting boring!" Jio let out as he walked around Eclipse and continued, "Why don't we finish this with everything we got?"
"I like how you think, but I'm not familiar with my power," Eclipse answers, "I'm at a disadvantage!"
"Welcome to reality!" Jio shouts.
"..." Eclipse stands still, clenching fists.
"I'll give you some advice; I can feel the power around you and disappoint of how you utilized that power," Jio said and let out, "Watch carefully, and I'm sure you can copy my action."
Jio focused all the remaining energy around his body to his right hand, forming a ball of energy while his sword melted back to his arm and morphed back into armor but looked different like its brand new, unlike the rest of the armor around his body, which adapted from the beginning of the fight.
It's the sacrifice Jio needs to consider if he decides to change the shape of his weapon or armor.
Eclipse's body tone turns gray and colorless like a lifeless rock statue since all that glow moves to its arms. Shimmering light like moving rainbow from its shoulder to the tip of its fingers, Eclipse looks at Jio, rushing with all his might.
With newly acquired power, Eclipse prepares to clash with Jio, and a beam of energy shoots from Eclipse's hands.
*Beautiful!* Jio thought in surprise, but it wouldn't stop him from rushing towards Eclipse; instead of avoiding or running away from the light, Jio used his left hand and continued to advance.
Everyone knows how intense and powerful Eclipse's attack is, and Jio only uses his hand to block it, psychologically making everyone fear him even more.
As soon as Jio gets closer to Eclipse, the energy ball in his right-hand fuse with his arm, copying Eclipse. Jio grabs Eclipse's hand to prevent it from escaping, and before Eclipse swings his blade, it is too late.
"Guess it's goodbye..." Jio let out with a long face.
With Jio's right arm raging with energy, no one can comprehend except the Ancient; he strikes Eclipse's chest with all the power from his arm, separating the twins back, and a powerful blast covers the whole arena with smoke and dust.
While everyone waits for a clear view, the twins look in Jio's direction with his head armor shattered in half, revealing his human face. Jio makes it looks like he suffers greatly from the explosion.
"WHAT IS THIS!? IS HE REALLY A HUMAN OR A GECKO?" The announcer asks everyone and approaches Jio, "Do you want to continue fighting?"
"I'm sorry my body can't handle anything after Eclipse and I clashed," Jio answers.
"And you twins?" The announcer asks the twins.
"We can't fight anymore...." The twins answer at the same time.
"This is rare, and we have a draw!" the announcer declared and continued, "In half an hour, we will have the 2nd match, so enjoy and relax for now."
Jio and the twins disappear and reappear in a room with the Ancient, Sierra, and Bm. The Ancient wants to personally talk to the participants and share what he thinks of the fight. Everyone wants to know whether Jio is a human or a monster race, but the Ancient sends a message to everyone and answer their question and wants them to accept his friend human.
"Good Job, Sun and Moon," Bm complements her siblings.
"Thank you, Big sis," the twins answer together, and the Ancient calls the twins to give the twins pointers.
"You could beat them after that attack," Bm let out to Jio.
"I don't do that to kids... That's a lie... I did beat the shit of..." Jio answers in his defense, stop, and continues, "It's a payment for the life lesson and this,"
Jio takes out a tennis ball size sphere with Eclipse's energy stored inside.
"Not bad," Bm let out, nodding.
To be continued.
