The forest was utterly destroyed by the giant spike that was pushing Kaiju to the end of its force. His head hung down as the vibrant red hair of his no longer exuded his proudness. He gritted his teeth with his eyes glaring against the spike that almost took his gut. The veins in his forearms popped before he threw the giant ice to the side.
"Why, I thought that this competition should be easy."
Heaven's Son muttered after his panting breath stopped. He looked at both of his bare hands that had turned dark blue from the cold. Even the blood had frozen at the tip of his fingers. He slowly buried it inside his palms despite the little pain that he felt. He slowly walked forward toward the place where Madoku silently awaits.
Every step he took was heavier than before. His eyes were sharp with killing intent he no longer hid. There was not single patience or marvelousness in his glare. Heaven's galore and glory was not in his actions nor does on his bitter face that wanted nothing but to shred the woman who did this to him.
"This humiliation will not be tolerated!"
Kaiju leaped once more however, he hopped in a shorter distance compared to before and doing zig zag.
"Madoka, he is coming for the kill."
"En."
"It's your turn."
"En."
Madoku's eyelid slightly dropped before it stopped at the half. The one occupying her body now is no other than Madoka, the super anti-social of herself.
Kaiju noticed the change in her demeanor before the latter stretched her arms forward. Her cloak was fluttering as the day slightly dimmed.
"You wouldn't!"
Kaiju immediately forgot about his zig zag tactic in a fly and tried to grab her neck with his right hand as he leaped toward her.
"Divine Magic...."
She muttered before both of her index fingers suddenly write in perfect synchronization with the complete spell.
"Too late woman!"
Kaiju brutally caught her by the neck as he lifted her up with a grin.
"Ha...hahaha! I finally caught you coward!"
"Heh..."
Kaiju's eyes opened wide as Madoka smirked.
"Coiling Amp!"
"What?!"
The spell was activated as a wide rainbow magic brand appeared below his feet.
(Oi Madoka! You are endangering us too?!)
(Ah... en)
(Don't 'En' me you fool!)
(En, sorry)
(Don't sorry to me! We both are going to feel the same pain!)
(Too tired.. need sleep, en).
(You!).
*Spark
(Lightning?!) Kaiju opened his eyes wide before he looked at Madoka who was sleeping in his choke. (This woman! Has two-element affinity?!).
"What?!"
No matter how much he was trying to put a force in his feet, he couldn't even move it. Not even his toes of his could budge or fidgeted. He was trapped, he was trapped for the third time by the girl whose body was definitely frailer than her power output.
His jaw was locked as yellow lightning coiled around his body like a snake. There was nothing but ominous pain that creeping up his spine before the thunder erupted from the ground up.
*Flash!
Lyon watched the flash before his eyes turned sharp.
"Shit!"
His calves contracted before he jumped with all the force that he had into the sky. He pulled his tails toward him and hold both of the women by their waist. Ayumu didn't manage to react before she glanced down and saw an ominous yellow current sparking and coiling on top of the icy ground before, in a zap, the entire forest turned into dust.
Her pupils were shrunken as she watched the devastation of the winter.
"Woah! That was close!" shouted Lyon with a smile as he was in the air after observing the entire forest lost its color. The entire landscape had changed and the smell of burntness immediately occupied his nostrils.
Lyon landed gracefully with a thud before gently putting down the two women to the ground. The temperature drastically rose before it canceled out that cold chilling winter without mercy.
"Madoka..."

"Hm?" Lyon turned around before asking Ayumu, "You mean Madoku?"
Ayumu shook her head, "No, it's Madoka, only she had the element affinity of lightning to such degree."
Lyon slightly contemplated before he had an idea, "Oh, you mean the lady behind the floating eye from before?"
Ayumu shook her head once more. Her gesture only furthers his confusion before he remembered the sudden change of behavior before Madoku entered the vortex.
"She has two personalities?"
Ayumu nodded, "Not many knew about this but sooner or later everyone would. Madoku the ice and Madoka the lightning. Both of them are inside the same body and their element affinity boosted each other maximum capabilities."
"Noted," Lyon darted his glance back to the open field that was zapped away from life, "Ice and lightning, a fearsome duo indeed. However, that guy is still standing there."
Kaiju was standing still but his hand was choking an empty air. The person that obliterated the whole forest was nowhere to be seen, at least from Lyon's point of view.
True to his nickname, Heaven's Son was not easily defeated. Sitting at the topmost of the Top Board he had every right to sit on the elusive throne that coveted by many of his peers.
"She lost... heh, that cunning woman finally lose," muttered Kaiju.
Meanwhile in the West City.
A figure was blatantly puked out from the vortex before it had rolled down to the ground. The cloak that she wore remained intact but a hint of sparks was visible in the air around her. The onlookers were hesitant to get close in order to help her get up but the old man from Lyon's group brazenly approached her.
Despite the wild sparks that casually zapping his right arm he kept on going before suddenly Tuey shouted, "Hey, don't do anything funny now."
"Wha? What do you mean?!" the old man immediately stood up before turning around against the little lass with dog ears, "I'm not that kind of pervert!"
Lumina let out a sigh before the giant lizard suddenly called out, "Fusya!"
Madoku's eyes slightly twitched before her face turned bitter. The numbing sensation was crawling all over her body. She was stuck and fated to be with the ground for a while since not an ounce of strength could she flustered in her muscles.
(Good job Madoka!)
(En).
(Don't 'En' me!).
(Sorry... need sleep, bye).
(Wait! You!).
(...).
She couldn't believe her own half left her in this state though the latter was the one who supposed to be responsible for it.
"C'mon now," the old man sincerely put her arm around his shoulder before standing up. Her eyes slightly glanced at the old man before she recognized that it was the one that knew Ayumu. Knowing she was in the safe hand she managed to dart her glance away toward the board. (Sure enough, my name is present).
(Older sister is going to win now for sure... after all, I never thought in the first place that I could beat her. With how Kaiju has been weakened to that degree, the plane is nothing but a buffet for her. Ayumu... I hope you find what you are looking for before she eliminates everyone).
The onlookers were naturally looking at her but with her glance, she dismissed them all and let them speculate with their own chattering.
"The High Witch has been eliminated!"
"Things must have been pretty brutal there right now."
"I knew it, Kaiju is still there, his name had not appeared yet."
"Also... that guy."
The moment one of them said 'that guy', the figure of which almost stopped their heart appeared in their mind. Coming with nothing but black pants he stood against the ashen bell before punching through it and sent a phenomenon that changed the entire world as if he was the ruler of night and day.
------------------------
Back in the plane.
Kaiju didn't notice that a floating eyeball was watching him from afar. The lady with purple lips puckered up a smile.
"Durable, durable. Kaiju is really durable. Is this what it means to be Heaven's Son? To think that you survived the deadly combo my cute little sister had chanted. Multiple direct hits and you are still standing, astounding."
The tone of which she used was hard for others to discern if she was praising or being sarcastic. However, one thing for sure was that the fisherman had lost against the fish, but no one ever said there was only one fisherman out in the sea.
"Be patient, be patient, OH! I CAN"T WAIT ANYMORE! Turn around Kaiju, turn around!" the lady started to fidget. Though she could eliminate him right there and then. She wanted to see something remarkable.
Kaiju creased his eyebrows before he turned around.
"YES!"
His eyes immediately turned sharp as he looked at a familiar figure whose arrogance and confidence had fused. The latter was half of his original height and the eternal smirk on his face was both condescending and likable.
The plane was already trembling in fear before they even move a step.
"Ngh... huh... Lyon?"
Sylviana opened her eyes.
