《Devil in My Heart》Reveal

Claes stood up and turned around. So did Lucien. They face each other. Claes attacked him first but was swiftly parried. Criiingg... The sound of clashing swords. They looked and seemed to communicate with each other. One gaze from the eyes is blue, while the other is red.
"Hyaaaaaah," Lucien shouted, pushing him through the sword. Claes took a few steps back. Lucien kept pushing and then swung his sword until Claes was finally thrown away.
"I can't just keep quiet like this. I don't want to see them fight and hurt each other. I have to stop them!" muttered Ryan who couldn't bear to see, dashed towards them. Meanwhile, Lucien was preparing to launch his punch at Claes. He concentrated strength in his left palm, then swiftly moved forward.
Due to the fast movement of Lucien and his sudden appearance of Ryan, Lucien didn't have time to stop his attack, so Ryan finally received a hit in the chest.
"Argh!!!!" Then he fell near Claes.
They were both taken aback.
"Why are you doing this?" Claes asked while hugging Ryan in his lap.
"I can't just keep quiet..." He speaks haltingly while trying to take a deep breath and continue his words, "when you see other people get hurt."
"Claes... Lucien... Please don't...don't fight again... Maybe... It's better if I don't meet all of you if I know I'd be the cause you are hurting each other..." Ryan stammered and then, "Cough... Cough..." Ryan spits out the blood.
"Don't talk too much anymore," Claes said while touching Ryan's bloodied face.
Ryan held Claes' hand and placed his hopes on him while shedding tears before he fell unconscious.
"Ryan!!!" Claes cried on screamed.
The sound of a sword falling from Lucien's hand.
The asuras and other warriors who were fighting at that time stopped watching the phenomenon.
His appearance was changed by wearing a brilliant suit of armor decorated with beautiful ornaments and a crown on his head.A light appeared between his eyebrows and at the end formed a crystal that resembled a dewdrop.
Leander and Leona flinched when they felt this power.
"Who exactly is this person?" mumbled Lean. Likewise, the other asuras stopped fighting because they felt great energy pressure. They turn their heads towards the light that appeared. They hesitated to continue the fight again and then decided for each other to withdraw.

Claes checked Ryan's condition and realized that he was still alive with a weak pulse. Claes immediately channeled energy through his hands to Ryan intending to heal his internal wounds. After Ryan was in better condition, Claes lifted Ryan in his arms and laid him down in a safe place. Then he walked slowly towards Lucien. Lucien was surprised to see his new appearance because he remembered something about the figure in front of him now.
While walking quietly, there was a seriousness in his eyes. Through his right hand appeared a sword with a bluish ornament and he slid straight into Lucien.
"Fast movement." Lucien's mind.
"Zraasshhh..." Lucien got attacked.
Because of nimble movements, he glided while looking down. The particles of bluish light that came out of his sword were clearly visible when he scratched Lucien, like clumps of water when swinging the sword in the stream. His blue light particles mixed with the energy that came out of Lucien's body in violet color.
"Arrrghhh!!!" Lucien shouted in pain.
Leona and Leander were shocked by what they saw.
"It's bad if this continues," Leander said.
Leona wanted to move forward to help Lucien but was restrained by Lean who held her hand, "Do you want to die? We're not on their level. Even Lucien, who is stronger than us, can be hit by him."
Lucien moves back a few steps because of his attack. Then he also released his power energy while taking out his other sword.
"We meet again," Lucien said. His sword was now energized. They face each other and fight.
"His strength is great even though it's not great as before, but myself now is fatigue cause him," thought Lucien and then chose to fly.
Claes called out to his friend with a whistle. . Claes stroked it gently. Then he stood on the back of the phoenix chasing Lucien. They fight in the sky. Once again Lucien was hit by Claes and he fell hard to the ground.
Phoenix swooped down sharply to attack Lucien. On the other side, Leona shot three arrows at Claes. The phoenix that was sensitive to the other energy coming then flicked the arrow through its wings. Lucien had a chance to stand up, but Claes jumped off from the phoenix's back and swung his sword from above. In a seated position, Lucien blocked Claes' attack with his sword.
"Ugh!!!"

Leander appeared from the side and flung his claws at Claes from afar. But Claes blew away his attack with a single swing of his sword. There was a collision of their powerful energy. Smoke and wind appeared due to the attack. Just then, Leona appeared from above and intended to launch her kick at Claes. Before it could hit him, Claes dodged by rolling his body. Leona took the opportunity and brought Lucien away.
Claes stood up and didn't mean to chase him back. He just gave a warning so that in the future no longer attack this kingdom. Then he approached the phoenix, stroked it, and pressed against its forehead with his while smiling as if they had not seen each other for a long time. "Thank you," whispered Claes. The phoenix was happy and fluttered its beautiful feathers. "You can go back to where you came from." Before leaving, the phoenix bowed its head in respect and then flew back into the sky.
Claes walked slowly towards Ryan who was lying down. As he walked, his appearance slowly changed back to its origin. Because of exhaustion,
Not long after, the reinforcements arrived, as the guards who guard the border saw the thundering sky as well as appear supernatural beings. Realizing there was a great battle, they came to help with many troops. Upon arrival, they helped the injured warriors and immediately provided first aid. They also mourned their friends who died.
The knights were worried about the prince's condition. Then look for the prince and Taddeus. They also found Taddeus who was unconscious and took him. It wasn't long before they also found the prince and Ryan. Finally, they returned to the kingdom.
******
In the Kingdom...
Dion, Taddeus' father, walks in the corridor and accidentally meets Princess Eudora. He was shocked. "Princess, why are you here?"
"What do you mean, Sir?" Is there something wrong with me being here?"
"Ah... no... no... I'm just surprised. Wasn't the princess caught by the asuras?"
"Oh, that. Someone replaced me. Uhm... One of the warriors had disguised become me."
"That's good then. Good thing the princess wasn't there. Well, I excuse myself. Good night."
"Yes sir, good night."
Dion went away and showed an angry face by clenching his fists. "Yeah. It's okay. This is just the beginning," he muttered.
Eudora entered her room, walked towards the balcony, and looked out at the reddish twilight sky, "How is his condition? My heart feels uncomfortable. I hope he's okay."
Not long after, a maid knocked on the door.
"Excuse me, princess."
"What is it? Have you got any information about the prince?"
"Yes, princess. Now the troops have returned."
"How is the prince's condition?" Princess became enthusiastic to hear that.
"Uhm... That's... He hasn't regained consciousness."
"What?!!"
Soon, she came out to meet the prince. She also saw an unpleasant sight where the wounded warriors were gathered in the courtyard.
The king and royal family also came in rushed. They were shocked by what they saw.
"Hurry and treat them soon!!!" The king ordered. "Where's the prince?!!" He continued.
Not long after, Claes was brought in on a stretcher so as Taddeus. The king, other nobles, and princesses were shocked while seeing those who were unconscious. Eudora sheds tears.
"How is he?" asked the worried king.
"He fainted, Your Majesty so as with Taddeus," replied the knight.
Dion was shocked when seeing his son was also unconscious and then said, "Quickly, heal them!"
"Yes, Sir."
******
Leander carried Lucien on his back while Leona flew beside him.
"This is beyond our expectations," said Leona.
"Yes. Who is that person really?" Leander muttered.
There was a moment of silence and then Lucien replied, "He is a god."
"What?!!!" They were both shocked. "How could that be?" asked Leander.
"I also don't know what happens. Before I fell to earth, I fought with him and it's a long time ago."
Leona and Leander looked at each other and remained silent until they reached Lucien's castle and sat him down.
"I will ask a healer to treat your wound. Get some rest," Leander said.
"Is there anything we can help with?" Leona asked.
Lucien shook his head, "Thank you. You can leave me alone."
Leona intends to stay by his side, but it can be seen from the look on Lucien's face that is gloomy and depressed. "It would be better for him to be alone," Leona thought. Leander looked at Leona and she followed Lean out of the room.
Lucien recalled the incident when he was still in heaven. He was an annoyed but mixed feeling of sadness that was reflected on his face, "Ugh!! Why is he here?"
At that time, Lucien was born in heaven as a god.
