“Listen both of you. Now I gonna active my Holy Mode.” Said Mei.

“Holy Mode! What is that?” Ask Sero confusing. This is because this is the first time for him to hear the word Holy Mode.

“Holy Mode is the strongest form that my creature, a human can achieve. Human is a creature that born with a limit. Limit is the phase when the body cannot endurance the burden that is given. When we fight and achieve the limit, our bodies need to rest to recover back their energy and stamina. However, when we training non-stop our energy and stamina will be expended and make our time limit longer.”

“So, what you want to say?” Ask Sora don’t get it what Mei wants to convey.

“Did you know there is a certain person can control their limit?”

“What?” Sora and Sero simultaneously.

“Yes, there are a few people in my place that can break their limit for a certain time. For a certain time, our body gains a lot of energy and strength that we cannot imagine. At that time the body will be heated and release a strong power that what we called as Holy Mode.” Explain Mei.

“Now… I will create an opening for the two of you. When I give a signal, I want two give all your best attack toward her.” While lifting her sword to her chest level and start chanting some spells.

“Lord of the Dreams that Terrify,

Sword of Cold and Light, free yourself from the heaven´s bonds,

Become one with my power, one with my body

And let us walk the path of light together!

A power that can smash even the souls of Gods,

HOLY MODE!!”

Doom!

Mei’s body was suddenly covered by a strange white aura after she finished chanting that spell. Then she dashes toward Aoi with her sword. However, her movement is more fasters than before. She got even more faster. Every single attack from Aoi's sword successfully being avoided by Mei and some time she launches a counterattack. Their fight is so fast that makes it harder to follow by a mare people.

“Amazing(sugoiii)… Not only she can hold the power of our sister, but her swordplay is also paired. If continue like this, I think we can win.” Sero is amazed by the fight of Mei.

“No. Look carefully, that form is drained much of her magic power and stamina.” From afar they can see that Mei is fatigue in the fight. “If continue like that, her magic power and stamina will be run out before she can stop our sister… So, before she runs out of magic and stamina we better prepared for our next attack.”

Then the two of them start to chanting another magic spell. While casting Sora looks carefully at Aoi and Mei's fight. He realized something is wrong with her sister's fighting style.

“There no ways (Masaka)?” Said Sora to himself while stopping his magic casting.

Sero realized Sora had stopped casting his magic spell. It looks like there is something wrong with him. Then he quickly asks “Why are you stopped?”

“Sorry, Sero but can you change the magic attack. I want you to use the magic to binds our sister body. I think I have figured her weakness, but I have to confirm it first. If it is true then I think we can defeat her.” Reply Sora while still looking at a fight between Mei and Aoi.

“Really… Alright.” With smile. This is because he is amazed by Sora. In a short of time, he has figured out her sister's weakness.

From far away Mei tried her best to pair with Aoi attack but her strength is slowly falling. If it continues like this all her stamina and energy will be run out before she could stop Aoi. Then with full strength, she swings her sword toward Aoi and continues with an energy attack continuously.

Cling!Bang!Bang!Bang!

Due to repeated attacks from Mei, Aoi's body is moved back a little. Then Mei lifts her sword as higher as can, given a signal to Sora and Sero to attack her.

Sero is running towards Aoi while chanting some spell.

“Black and white net. Twenty-two bridges, sixty-six crowns, and belts. Footprints, distant thunder, sharp peak, engulfing land, hidden in the night, a sea of clouds, blue line. Form a circle and capture my enemy, magic bind.”

Zupp!

Suddenly Aoi's body is tied up by magic rope. Then this opportunity is taken by Sero to attack Aoi's right hand where she holds her sword. With Sero attack the sword that Aoi held loose to the ground. Then Sero maintains his body position to make sure the binding magic is not detached.

From the back, sora walks slowly towards Aoi and make a request to Sero. “Sero, can you hold her for a few minutes?” ask him.

“Yeah… but I don’t think I can hold her much longer.” Try to balance his magic.

Then Sora stopped walking and standing in front of his sister.

“What are you doing. It dangerous.” Shout Mei from the back.

“It ok. From now I will handle the rest.”

***

“Sorry, nee-chan.”

That was the first word that comes out from Sora's mouth. He realized that all this problem is caused by him. Because of his confidence in his plan makes his sister hurt. All he wants is only successful in his strategy and don’t think the effect that they will face later.

1 hour earlier

“What? You want me to pretend to be capture.” Said Sero with a high voice. He is very shocked by Sora's plan. Even this plan will graduate the hostage safety, but the risk is too high.

“Yeah. I want you to pretend to be captured and I will play a dead person. It will be easy for me to slip to a hostage place when they think I am dead. Moreover, with you been capture it will reduce the number of guards that petrol around hostage.”

“Ok I understand… but how are you gonna make sure that the troll believes that you are dead?” Ask Sero, still not satisfied with this plan.

“First, the two of us will pretend to be capture and I will struggle to fight them. I will provoke them to make them angry. When they try to kill me, I want you to use the illusion magic to make a scene that I am stabbed by their sword. When they lowered their guard a bit, then I will slip to their prison, kill all their guard and save the hostage.”

“Why don’t you just let me pretend to be dead. It will be easier for us to save them because I am more stronger than you?” Suggest Sero to change the plan.

“Yeah, that true but… I want you to save your energy to fight the rest of the troll later. Moreover, I not very good at lying to our sister.”

“Ok. I got it but can you promise me something?” While looking at Sora with a serious expression.

“What it is?” While looking back at Sero's eyes.

“Please be careful and come back alive.” Giving a hand bump to Sora. Even he knows that Sora is a genius but going to an enemy place alone makes him worried. Everything can happen and he doesn’t want anything bad to happen to his little brother.

“Alright, I promise will come back alive.” Bump his hand back with Sero.

***

“Sorry, nee-chan. I just to make sure that all the people are safe. All of this is part of a plan. So please come back to us. Everything is alright now.” Said Sora with a slow voice. He realized his mistake.

Aoi starts to struggle and begins to scream. “Arghhh….” With a louder voice Aoi screaming with all her might and the binding magic that binds her body to begin to loosen. It looks like her magic power begins to come back.

Zapp! The binding magic that binds Aoi’s body has detached.

“This is bad. Sora runs away.” Sero gives a warning to Sora when realizes that his binding magic has detached. He tries to jump toward Sora to protect him but Aoi quickly lifts her right hand and used her wind magic to make Sero and Mei threw away from their place. The Sword (Tsurugi) that been drop before has come back to Aoi. Aoi is ready to strike Sora with her sword.

Swoosh! Aoi swings his sword toward Sora's neck.

“Soraaaaaaa…” Sero shouts with all his heart when he sees Sora still not move from his place.

Suddenly, Aoi's attack stopped in the middle of the air after listening to Sero shout. A little bit more, her sword will cut through Sora's neck. A little blood was flowing from a scratch because Aoi's sword slightly hit his neck.

“Sooo… Raaa” with a trembling voice. It looks like that she begins to regain her consciousness a little.

“That right nee-chan. It me, Sora. I’m alright, so… please come back to us.” Reply Sora still not move from his place. Then he takes this chance to hugs his sister tightly. Aoi is struggled to be released but Sora still does not let her go.

“It alright now. It alright.” With a whispering voice while tightening his hugs.

Finally, Aoi's hair is starting to change back to blue. Her eyes also start to back to normal and slowly begin to close. Its looks like she has been unconscious in Sora's arms because of the strong power that she used.

From afar Sero tried to get up. Because of the long fight, it looks like his body begins to hurt. His magic power also almost zero. While struggle, he walked slowly towards Sora and Aoi place. He then touched Sora's shoulder.

“Good work.” Praise him to Sora. Its looks like Sora's body also has been tired.

“Yeah.” Still holding Aoi.

“So, how do you realize her weakness?”

“From her fight with Mei before. Her attack seen to been trembling like she actually holding something back. Then I realized that even she unconscious, but her heart is still there. That why I tried to talk to her and make her come back to us.” Explain Sora.

“Seriously, what a troublesome.” With a smile and then his body fell to the ground.

Sora smiled at his brother before he also fainted. It looks like the two of them have lost consciousness. It has been a long time for the two of them to have a hard fight.
