Chapter 37 - mysterious acquaintance

The four boys turned as they saw the head of an old man wearing a cowboy had peer down at them.

The old man jumped through the rift, holding a banjo in his hand, a small smile on hus face."Wait, it's you old man caiver."said iodine.

Oh, you know my name." I don't quite remember meeting any of you before."Said caiver in confusion.

"Wait, those distinct purple eyes, you two are related to the boy I met last night."Said caiver as his eye's started to glow.

"I see your voudaju patterns are almost exactly identical it's almost as if the two of you were created from him." I know for a fact you are not human.

The power to enter a higher dimension and combined with the same three outbursts of energy exactly identical to the one's ten years ago.

Theirs no doubt you two are related to the trickster, and if I had to guess, so is that boy, "said

caiver.

"And you're not human yourself are, you old man."said Alex."And what makes you think that all I did was carve out space, not something special no one of my caliber couldn't do if we already have a map."said caiver.

"Anyway, you four are coming with me, or I'll have to force you, don't you know the laws against messing with dimensions."Said caiver.

"Sorry we didn't know of any rules. Can you perhaps hand the manual to me so I can know exactly the best way to break them."said aluro.

"Smart mouth, huh? I guess I'll have to give the lesson your parents didn't."said caiver."Just be warned, geezer. we don't show elders respect when they decide they are young enough to run them hands."said mikel.

"You young folks nowadays even though you're not my grandchildren I suppose I'll use my belt after I use my fist."

Caiver then struck his guitar as hundreds of hands holding several guns emerged from behind him.

He struck the guitar again as rapid gun fire rang throughout the dimension as aluro raised his hand as the bullets froze in place.

Iodine then grabbed a long black sword from thin air with a scale engraved its hilt as he appeared in front of the caiver, sending a horizontal slash towards his neck.

But caiver struck his banjo as several golden poles of light blocked iodine's strike.A gun then appeared caivers' hand as he shot a bullet towards iodine's head.

Purple flames rose up blocking the bullet, but it pierced straight through as iodine barely doged as the bullet flew through iodine's shoulder, causing him to flinch.

Alex appeared behind caiver as a necklace with a blue emerald shaped like a spiral appeared in hus neck.

Caivers light bars, then transfiguration turning into beams of light that flew towards his neck.Caiver smiled as he swung his banjo, destroying the light beams.

"Dead star."said mikel as a giant sun dropped on caivers head.Caiver raised his hand about to strike his banjo, but his hand froze in place as the sun slammed into his body.

The sun exploded as the four boys didn't let their guards down for a second.The smile cleared, revealing an unharmed caiver who had his signature happy smile.

"You boys aren't half bad, but how about you hear a higue's tale."Said caiver as a wrinkled old woman with long finger nails flew towards iodine.

The woman screamed, her voice shaking the dimension as both Alex and mikel started to bleeding from their eye's hears and nose.

The woman flung her claws towards iodine, who swung his blade.The clash rang out as the women's ling nails collided with iodine's blade.

Aluro raised his hand, but the caiver appeared in front of him."Dead star."said caiver as a giant sun flew towards aluro.

As his staff appeared in his hand as he tapped the sum as it started to spin."Replace." The sun then became white as caivers eyes widened with suprised as he was then hit with the full force of a pulsar star.

"Nails as brittle as stone." iodine then sliced through the woman's nails, carving of her

head.

The pulsar starts blew off with caiver into the distance as the four boys vanished from the dimension.

The star exploded, releasing energy comparable to a supernova as the four boys dropped back into the street panting.

"Are you sure he's dead?"asked Alex."No, he's definitely not a supernova is not enough to kill a master of at least the lower tier of the eight level."Said iodine.

"Then why didn't you rewrite the truth and make him as durable as a level 5?"asked mikel."Not possible, that takes so much emotional energy, and it likely still wouldn't work, and besides angelo's current situation."replied iodine.

"Let's get out of here. we fight anymore, and we will definitely lose even if we can win."said

aluro.

"Man, my ears still hurt despite me healing them."said mikel."Hey wait aluro what did you do back their?"asked mikel.

" I replaced the properties of your sun with a random pulsar in the universe."replied

iodine.

"You can do something like that even in angelo's current condition."said Alex."Yes, but now I can only teleport away. I'll have to stick to pure voudaju combat."said aluro.

"Hey, if we cause enough destruction, maybe you can recharge."said mikel."No, we can't take in raw negative emotion. it has very dangerous consequences."said iodine.

"Are you kids okay? I'll call an ambulance what happened."Said, a man pulling out his phone as a small crowd surrounded the boys.

Before any of them could respond, a rift appeared above them as a head that was filled with third-degree burns peered out.

The people screamed in terror as they immediately started to run."At least no one prayed this time glad to see that flight or fight response is put to use."said the man as golden light engulfed his body.

His burned and sizzled skin then dropped to the ground, replaced by his clear pale skin."You brats gave me a new experience, never been hit by a pulsar before it even by bypassed my defense to a degree very impressive."said the old man.

The old man's hand then flew into the air, blood spilling to the ground. "Be glad you missed my neck, I wouldn't want that toothpick of yours to break."said the old man.

Mikel then appeared behind the old man, slamming a kick towards the old old man's ear.The old man grabbed mikel's foot and flipped over him.

But Mikel was then teleported above him and slammed a kick in his back.Before the old man could his the ground, Alex slammed a punch in the side of his head, laughing him into a nearby street lamp.

Iodine squinted his eyes at the old man.Iodine then appeared behind aluro, stabbing the ground where he stood the force, causing the entire street to cave into a sinkhole.

Iodine's blade was now through the torso as the old man as they descended into the sewage system.

A giant paper origami Swann then flew from the old man's chest towards iodine, who twisted his body, avoiding the creature.

His signature spear then appeared in his hand as he lauched it into the birds hest causing it to vanish.

Before they could fall, iodine was teleported back above ground in a kneeling position.Before they could relax, several giant golden spikes flew out of the ground.

The four lauched themselves into the air, but the golden spikes extended towards them, causing one to pierce Alex through the right thigh.

Alex then chopped off his leg as it transfiguration into a chimera like beast with a horses head and a birds body.

The beast opened it's mouth releasing acid spit towards Alex.Alex's necklace glowed as the acid spit hit him, and his leg and juries regrew.

Alex then created a spear made of voudaju laughing it towards the chimera whose body was torn in half.

Old man caiver then leaped into the air."Fathers divine rapid strike."said caiver, striking his banjo as hundreds of beams of light started to rain down on the city.

Aluro raised his staff as he smirked."So this is what you call a gods divine technique. How about I show you God's real jugement."

Iodine then created a whip as he threw it towards caiver who easily dodged it."Was that it."said csiver as hundreds of beans of light flew past the boys and dropped down towards the city.

Screens then started to erupt from the city below as pure terror filled the people's

face s.

"Thanks for the charity, old man."said iodine as he raised his spear."No meed for that iodine, I got this."said Alex as the beams of light exploded one by one and started dropping in the form of light particles.

A giant meteor then entered Earth's atmosphere as aluro raised his hand."Black hole."Before caiver could react, he was slammed into the meteor as all of his bones were crushed upon impact.

Aluro clapped his hands as the meteor vanished."Where, did you send that?"asked mikel.

"Jupiter,"replied aluro."Won't that destroy the entire planet."said iodine."No, I'm not dumb I removed the black hole properties the instant it started to affect the earth."replied aluro.

"Well, in the three minutes, it'll take for him to get back. How do we they'll with those people."said Alex as he pointed towards the people holding up their phones.

"Come on, man, let's go."said a man as he tried to drag his friend."No way if this gets enough views, I won't have to go to work tomorrow."said the other man.

"You could die, you damn!"shouted the man."I work minum wage. I've been dead for a while now, and if I die, I won't have to see my shirty boss again."Said the man.

"And don't you have two kids and live in poverty? If we survive, we'll be interviewed and get no money. Upload this video on the web. Our families will get money, even if we die win win."said the man.

"Get off the camera app. Let's go live if the phones are destroyed. We'll still have proof."said the man as his friend smiled.

"Wait, there is no way I'm having two rando's making money off. we are getting beat by an old man."said Alex.

"I'm just mad. I didn't think of it first. You know how many times the president should have gone to jail for child abuse."said mikel.

"What the hell is child abuse?"asked iodine."What happens to angelo when he skips training or doesn't do his chores."said aluro.

That's it elven kids through study camps from the ages of three to a hundred, only an estimated 24 percent make it out sane and only 60 leave at all."said iodine.

Yeah, what has angelo been doing in that world it sounds like it has worse child protection laws than when the old man and Ms. matilda were kids."said Alex.

"Back in my day, children were forced to work in factories every day to support themselves."Said mikel in a mocking voice.

"I feel like we're getting sidetracked. Shouldn't we start evacuating now."said aluro.Nah, it's only been three minutes we should be able to."

A giant golden hand then slapped Alex, sending him flying down towards the ground as the old man stood over them with a furious look on his face, standing shirtless above them.

"Delete that!"shouted Alex."Send me that later."Said mikel."Fuck off you bastard."
