[Thread PL: 155,273 | Mazoku Wrath (x18P) Activated! Current PL: 2,794,914! | Heavy Weights ON! Current Weighted PL: 698,729!] KoramundThe Mazoku Lord slowly strolled through the lands of hell, his eyes darting every which way as he traveled. He was currently searching for a demon prince known as Beelzebub, who apparently wanted to speak with him. Was Xylo really so vile that nobility of another realm wanted to talk to him? It was quite encouraging, to say the least. Despite the prince apparently wanting to meet with him as Yemma stated, it was certainly no easy task to track down Beelzebub. It had already been a few days since he'd eaten Yemma's golden fruit, and even with his power unleashed, he was finding it difficult to investigate every nook and cranny hell had to offer. There was a chance that Beelzebub was actively hiding from the Mazoku, but that seemed most unlikely. The Namekian found himself on a strange winding road made of an unusual dark brick. It was unlike anything he'd encountered in this hellish world before! He slowly walked down the path, keeping his senses open to any encroaching foes. As he neared the end of the path, he found that he was lead to a large circular arena, made by the same dark brick from before. The walls of this arena rose high into the sky, leaving eyesight due to their immense height. "Quite the impressive sight. Maybe I'll build one of these when I revive..."Without a single bit of hesitation, he entered the the arena. From what he could tell, this place had been long abandoned, but looks could be deceiving. In the center of this arena was a ring one would see used in a Martial Arts tournament. It too was made of a dark stone, though this one seemed to give off a shimmering glow, like a diamond in the night sky. The Namekian stepped into the arena, folding his arms across his chest as he closed his eyes. "Perhaps If I focus my ability to sense Ki, I can locate Beelzebub. If I had to guess, his energy is probably far stronger than any warrior I've ever known..."Little did he know, a much more familiar warrior was already headed his way...

(Power level - 118,236, transformed with Bio to 354,708) Gaius zoomed through the landscape in a search for his 'prey'. Though, whatever prey he hoped to find was way out of his league and he fucking knew it. Whatever Beelzebub was thinking about trying to even fight this guy, let alone trying to injure him was a god damn stupid. He used his power sensing to try and hunt for any sort of being he could that had a magnificent power level, which to his luck was so easy to find he was surprised Beelzebub didn't do it himself. The prince must be lazy if Gaius's guess was worth any salt, and by meeting the guy he should be worth two pinches! The dark blue shimmering stone was easy to spot especially with the stupid amounts of power that he spewed out. Gaius floated near the arena just to be safe so it wasn't a bloody trap like any Daemonic thing was. He shouted over through his blue dragonic armor, "Xylo of Namek. Please to meet you once more friend! I must say that right now I am being hired to test you for Beelzebub... but I must say I am quite, quite good at sensing power levels! By Kami if you only had this power like, a month ago! I must ask that you follow me, for I can lead you to the prince Beelzebub. Any questions?"He gave off the large amount of dialogue before attempting to use his own power to hunt for Beelzebub... Beelzebub

Xylo's ears twitched as he felt the incoming Ki of someone quite familiar. This amalgam of energy belonged to none other than the Shapeshifter, Koramund. Soon enough, he appeared above the ring, adorned in a strange armor. It seemed to be something made here in hell, but if Xylo had to guess, the beast probably just shifted his form like he did on Namek.
"Good to see you again, Koramund. I have to admit, your new getup makes you seem a bit less fearsome."
The Namekian listened to Koramund's words with intrigue on his face. Apparently, Beelzebub had sent the Bio-Warrior to test Xylo! It was quite a stroke of luck that two of the Warrior's who fell on Namek caught the attention of the same demonic prince. Xylo nodded as Koramund finished speaking, deciding to ask a few questions of his friend. "I have only a few questions. The first: why send you? Does he not have minions of his own to do his bidding? And secondly: how in the world can I trust you actually met Beelzebub? For all I know you simply heard the name and decided to use it to lure me into a trap."
As he awaited Koramund's response, he gave the beast's Ki a proper look. It seemed he was only a small bit stronger than he was on Namek, making him of little challenge. If he really was learning from Beelzebub, their training probably hadn't gone far if he actually knew the prince.
"How about this? If you can best me in a duel, then I'll believe your tale. If I win, I'll go back to searching for Beelzebub on my own time. Sound good?"
Regardless of the outcome of this bout, Xylo would tag along anyways. He just wanted to test his newfound power on his ally before meeting the prince. He wasn't exactly sure what the extent of his strength was, so testing his limits against a weaker opponent might prove somewhat useful.

Gaius's eyes went wide in shock and horror. Oh lord this was going to be terrible. He answered calmly, "Well Lord the answer to your question? Why would I tell a lie to you? It gives me nothing to betray you, and besides you are much more powerful then I. Since you wish a fight... fine, I will provide. Just don't ravage me to hard... please?"
Gaius dropped to the arena before beginning his assault! He lifted up his massive blade of stone and unleashed a thick burst of ki and air at him. He cleaved through the Arena below him as it tore everything up. His cape flew up, transforming into two large black wings with blue scales. Blue flame erupted from his eye sockets as they formed blue screens over his scales. He roared out, "Bow to the White Queen!" Blue scales erupted from the wings, flying forward like a hail of knives. He tried his hardest even if this was futile, which he was half certain Xylo knew easily. He just wanted to see Gaius demolished...

The Mazoku smirked. "Don't fret, Koramund. We are practically unkillable here! We're already dead, after all."
Suddenly, the armored beast descended to the arena, lifting his blade high above his head, before suddenly unleashing a wave of Ki! Xylo brought his arms up to guard against the attack, lessening the damage somewhat as the attack smashed into him. The Namekian arched his brow curiously as Koramund's cape suddenly sprouted into a pair of wings! Dozens of razor-sharp feathers shot through the sky, aiming to cut through the Namekian like butter!
"I bow to none!"
The Mazoku Lord let loose a flurry of punches, knocking the feathers away from him with relative ease. As the barrage of feathers died down, Xylo chuckled. "Interesting technique! Perhaps you can teach me to grow wings one day. They're probably useful for intimidation."
With a burst of speed, Xylo rushed forwards, aiming to elbow Koramund in the chest. Should he succeed, he'd follow it up with a roundhouse kick to the beasts face, hoping to knock him flat on his back.

Gaius suddenly charged straight at Xylo, before running through him like a ghost! His body exploded into liquid, before reforming behind him. He lifted his sword up high before attempting to guillotine Xylo straight in half, though Gaius was only doing this to entertain Xylo and Beelzebub he had to admit. Guess he truly was a butler in that category. His tail zipped in from under his legs to impale Xylo in the chest, while his wings curved to engulf him into both attacks. He would open his maw no matter the result, and unleash a blast of ki to finish of the combo. Maybe one of his attacks would hit!

Meanwhile within the distance two figures were silently watching the duel between the predator and his prey. She had been on a higher elevation, a small cliff with a collection of trees, a spot she liked to visit when she needed some time to think away from the troublesome presence of the ogre supervisors and fellow denizen of this realm. Still, when she picked up the bio-android's presence, and that was what led Reikiko to decide to observe the task the Black Wolf had been given. Seated on a nearby cliff was her usual companion, the demon girl Lillim who was looking with a hint of boredom at the ongoing fight.
"Why are you interested in this fight Rei-Rei? He clearly is going to lose, and it's not like it's the same type of exciting duels you tend to have! Not even worthy of the Supah Saiyajin two level! We won't even see any of the Ogre betting on this brawl..."
Reikiko couldn't help but smile, folding up her arms beneath her chest as she explained with a grin.
"It's not that Lillim, do you not sense it? Gaius is trying to prove something, albeit I doubt even he himself is aware of what it is."
Lillim couldn't help but find herself slightly intrigued by the statement, making her look back at the fight while asking in a cheerful tone.
"What do you plan to do if he tries to kill Gaius?"
A good question, normally she wouldn't have bothered stepping in. However, this time there was another reason for her to observe the fight.
"Making him lose his body will place a minor delay to my plans. If it comes to that point I'll stop the killing blow. Now let us see how far Gaius his determination will take him."
And so she watched, the White Queen's cold gaze lingering on the two warriors.
"Wonder who that Namekian is... His power is much higher than the average warrior I sensed in this place."
---- (Reikiko is merely observing the battle, so feel free to ignore me in the posting order, only upon a killing blow will Reikiko act) Reikiko's presence can be felt, but Koramund/Gaius will likely notice it seems darker and more twisted than during their last meeting.

Xylo's eyes widened in surprise, as Koramund seemed to simply phase right through his attack! It didn't seem like an After-Image attack, so he must have used his Shapeshifting abilities. The Namekian turned just in time to see Koramund's blade swing downwards with intense speed! Xylo rolled to the left, narrowly dodging the blade as it cut through the arena!
The Namekian smirked as he took to a stand. Koramund was certainly a skilled warrior; were it not for Xylo's large advantage in speed and strength, he might be having more serious trouble dealing with his powerful blows.
Suddenly, Koramund's tail zipped out from underneath his legs, aiming to stab Xylo right in the chest! He attempted to grab at it as it closed in, gripping it tightly should he catch it. If he failed, it would stab him in the chest, causing minor damage. Regardless of success, he would be too occupied to notice the wave of Ki coming from Koramund's mouth! It smashed into the Namekian's chest, causing him to get launched into the sky, up and away from his opponent by a fair distance.
Xylo let out a shout as he flew, a burst of Kiai exploding from his body to stop his flight. He stared at Koramund from above, a grin coming from his dirtied face. "So, even at a disadvantage you can pack quite the punch! You are certainly a welcome addition to the Devil's Knights, should you still wish to work with us."
As he awaited Koramund's response, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine. A massively powerful, and immensely dark Ki had just taken a seat not far from the arena. Xylo glanced above, noticing a far-off cliffside. If he had to guess, the spectator was up there. "Is that ... Beelzebub? ... Or maybe someone else ... Whoever it is, I might as well give them a show."
The Mazoku turned back to his opponent. He raised his right hand, aiming the open palm directly at Koramund. Suddenly, an orb of bright yellow Ki blinked into existence. The Namekian gripped his right arm with his left hand to steady his aim as the attack slowly grew in size. Slowly, the orb of Ki in his palm expanded, reaching the size of a soccer ball. Lightning began to dance along his arm, signifying the blast was more than ready.
"Let's see what tricks you have in your pocket for this one... EXPLOSIVE DEMON WAVE!"
With a fearsome yell, Xylo fired a large beam of Ki directly at Koramund! It rocketed through the air at immensely high speeds, fully intent on knocking the wind out of the Bio-Warrior.

Gaius smiled, by god he actually had a chance here! He started to feel a little more confident, until he felt that dark presence. Shivers rippled down his spine in dark anticipation of being completely murdered once again as something within his mind was triggered. He started to breath heavily before falling down to a knee and grasping his head. His left hand dropped limply to the floor, nearly useless against this new threat. This violent aura made him think of a crimson monster made of metal, overlooking Earth with intense power. He felt like his entire body burned in it's presence, trying to die to rally them against a threat they could have stopped right there. He stood motionless in pain, even as the large beam flew straight at him.
The blast collided straight into Gaius, shattering him into shards of mush that scattered over the battle field. The little bits and pieces of goop just laid there dead and lifeless with no purpose.

When the Namekian started to unleash a rather flashy attack Reikiko couldn't help but smirk, wondering how Gaius would deal with the challenge placed before him. However, the moment the attack headed his way, the predator seemed to freeze, and her predator instinct caught a familiar scent: terror. With the attack obliterating Gaius Reikiko sighed in annoyance, while her demonic companion giggled softly.
"Now that's what I call 'Splatting your enemy!'"
Lillim giggled mischievously, but by the time she had finished Reikiko was already hovering toward the surface, her mask concealing the frown upon her face. She really needed to teach Gaius to ignore such instincts, to feel them is one thing but to become incapable of functioning at all in the middle of a battle was a fatal flaw. To the two participants it must had been a shock as the powerful presence descended toward them, and as if her trademark title was a suggestion the White Queen spoke in a confident tone.
"Is that the limit of your strength Gaius? A wolf shouldn't become paralyzed by fear, nor should a knight of the White Queen know defeat. I know of your abilities, so rise up and show me your strength."
Her aura had stirred lightly while she turned to face the Namekian, her lips curving up slightly.
"I do not know your name Namekian who embraced the Darkness, but I am here to ensure my knight fulfills his task."
She raised a hand toward Gaius, seemingly intending to channel some of her ki into him, hoping it would serve to empower him.
"Return to the battlefield Gaius, if the queen's words aren't enough, then rise for the promise of power the prince could bestow upon you..."
A subtle hint she was here for more than her personal interests...
"Now, Fight without fear... without restrains! And show me the reason why Beelzebub took interest in you... Speaking of that, it's quite rude to ignore the invitation of a prince... sir?"
Seemingly she desired to know his name...

As the wave of deadly Ki energy washed over Koramund, the Namekian who fired it couldn't help but feel a bit confused. He hadn't put THAT much power into his attack; was Koramund simply unprepared for the attack, or did the arrival of that new energy put him so off-balance that he was beaten outright? Whoever this new power was, it seemed to instill some sort of fear or at least unease into Xylo's opponent.
The energy subsided, revealing that Koramund had turned into a meager puddle on the ground. Xylo landed, arms crossed as he spoke. "Your skill has worsened since Namek. Very disappointing."
Before he could say more, his body felt another unnerving chill as the immense power watching from above suddenly descended on the duo with incredible speed. "Well, I suppose she's not Beelzebub then. Even so, her energy is incredibly vile... Is she a demon, or simply a corrupted warrior?" As his mind pondered, Xylo stared at the 'White Queen' with a mixture of interest and fear. Who was this woman, and why had she taken an interest in Koramund? Was she trying to steal him from Beelzebub?
As the strange woman called out to Koramund, Xylo's brow-ridge raised in confusion. "Gaius? So, the shapeshifter has started shifting names as well... If this trend continues, I'll need to write all of your alias' down."
The woman turned to Xylo, a smile very barely noticeable as she spoke. He let out an grunt in response. "Your Knight? I guess that explains the armor..."
Reikiko raised her hand, depositing a small amount of Ki directly into Koramund's feeble pile of mush. If it had begun to reform, Xylo would smirk. The White Queen ordered her knight to stand, whilst also quickly scolding Xylo for ignoring Beelzebub's invitation. "The name's Xylo. I wasn't ignoring Beelzebub's invitation, I just questioned the package it was sent in. For all I knew, this could have been a doppelganger bent on sending me to some trap! I had to test him; see if he was the Koramund I remember... As it stands, however..." He turned to Koramund, a frown appearing before he spoke again. "...He's the real deal, I suppose."
He pointed a thumb to the exit of the arena, suggesting to move in that direction as they spoke. "If you wish to take me to Beelzebub, I will follow. If not, we can always go for a second round. I don't mind either option."

The ground under the arena rumbled silently, before exploding as a massive surge of flesh ripped upwards. It roared out in anger, twirling in around itself before constricting itself. The heart of the beast pulsated, thumping to some form of War Drum. Dark blue scales shot out, forming a carapace coating for itself. Surging, liquid like flesh trailed behind the scales to flood in. They moved up and down to it's breath while the neck finally completed itself. White goop blasted out out of the body, forming a skeleton. The scales followed their prey of the white hare, coating it before allowing the liquid to fill. The horrific beast rose from it's underbelly with a still incomplete head.
Twitching and squirming, the tail's bones were formed with lots of tiny holes. Spikes jutting from the bone were rapidly covered by the hardening flesh. A rapid snap drew attention back to the maw, which was not even close to a normal beast's! The wide open maw was surrounded by six separate jaws that would all collide with gnashing teeth to form a flower like maw. There was no form of eye on the beast in sight. Blue flame draped around it's skull like a dreaming lion's. It's maw ripped open, spewing out lava-like saliva with small black cooling stone inside it. Explosions of violet blood filled the air as bloody tendrils formed! They anchored the massive beast to the ground so it could recover from the burst. It shook it's massive head before rising to it's full 30 foot tall height.
However Gaius got this much biomass was up to anyone to figure! The unholy dragon roared out in a deep voice it's answer, "...I adapt Princess. My original plan was to form into this and trap him between the tendrils, hoping to buy me some time. I can regenerate... I do believe we all have Namekian DNA here!" He then roared in hatred and outrage. He snarled out, "Princess, how do you expect me to even put a dent within Xylo?! He's wearing that heavy armor and is already twice as strong as I! Ghh.." He looked back, before starring at Xylo...
He stated, "Round Two if you please. I am a mere Knight..." Gaius went so all out that he planned to overwhelm Xylo in one massive attack. He roared, "THE BLACK WOLF HUNTS!" He spewed out a blue wave of lava straight at the Namekian while the tendrils on his back extended to try and envelop him. No matter the solution he would attempt to follow up with a smack by his mighty tail and a flame shower. The shapeshifter only had these techniques during this transformation, he found most of them noneffective but hopefully it would entertain. He knew they watched, and all he really wanted here was to survive.
------------------ (Can we just do a RP battle, no KP or mechanics or anything? Just fun trying to outplay each other?) (Gaius refuses the Senzu!)

Reikiko couldn't help but grin at Gaius his angry outburst, and after a look between the two of them playfully clapped her hands together. No doubt Beelzebub was watching from somewhere, and she might had an idea to make things more exciting between the two of them, a little idea to make things more exciting. She hopped a bit backwards as the two of them seemingly engaged into another round, and as the Black Wolf attacked she declared with a smirk the new rules of their duel.
"Let's see if things can become more interesting: Gaius, Xylo here are some rules for your little duel. Anything goes, but instead like in ancient dueling traditions in certain civilizations any clean hit upon the enemy will be announced by me. At this point I will openly announce such hits, first one to deliver three of those will be considered the winner. Let your wits outplay your strength."
She was sure things would become more challenging, yet interesting if they approached it like this. Yet silently she couldn't help but wonder what the prince planned to do with those two... Sure they had potential, but whether they had the power to support their potential remained yet to be seen.
---- Offered a new rule-set if Xylo accepts a RP battle. Instead of the regular KP system each round the two of you will post fighting each other in a rp-only manner, where a hit can either be given 'willingly' to oneself, or after each round Reikiko will narrate who is closest to delivering a proper 'clean hit' (basically I will read each post and voice who I believe made the best approach of that round, keeping in mind things like strategy, originality and of course who made their post the most fun to read) after 3 rounds Reikiko will automatically declare who delivered a hit (meaning that at most this battle will last 15 more post rounds)

Xylo watched with interest as Koramund began to reform himself, though this time he was certainly bulking up. His body grew and grew, all the way up to thirty feet in height! He towered over both Xylo and Reikiko, his voice booming as he spoke to his Queen. The Namekian was fairly unimpressed with this display. While he was bigger, he most certainly was not stronger. Xylo still doubled the shapeshifter's Ki, even with his weights on!
"If it is a round two you wish for, I will take pleasure in fulfilling this request!"
A mighty roar escaped the monstrous maw of Koramund as he prepared his assault. The beast started flashy, spewing a fount of blue lava from his multi-jawed mouth. It soared towards Xylo, but he was able to avoid it by back-flipping away from the target location, before suddenly hopping into the air. As he floated, he noticed an army of black tendrils coming his way!
The Namekian extended his arms and legs a small amount, making them lanky and somewhat floppy. As the tendrils closed in on him, he began to spin rapidly, his extended limbs acting like the blades of a saw. If any tendrils came near, they'd simply be knocked away by the force of his floppy weaponry. Eventually, the tendrils retracted, and Xylo stopped spinning. He took a moment to recollect himself. Unfortunately, he gave Koramund enough time for a second offensive!
Koramund's massive tail swung downwards, giving Xylo barely enough time to raise his hands to block as it closed in. The massive appendage forced Xylo downwards, nearly grounding the Namekian as he kept his guard held high. The beast wasn't done yet however; a burst of flame escaped Koramund's mouth, threatening to cook the Namekian as he defended against the tail.
Xylo brought his foot up, before suddenly crashing it down onto the tiled floor below. A fairly large chunk of the arena popped into the sky, but Xylo wouldn't let it get away! He raised his leg, allowing it to extend upwards towards the rock. He pulled it back, planting it firmly in front of himself to defend against the flames. The fire burned into the rock, but wasn't able to pass through. Soon enough, the flames died down, allowing Xylo to focus more on the tail that (presumably) still hung above him, threatening to smash him as soon as he relinquished his guard.
With a strained grunt, Xylo moved one of his arms away for a brief moment, attempting to punch Koramund's tail away so that he could get some breathing room. --- (Wasn't sure where the flame shower was supposed to come from because from what I can tell you didn't specify. I assumed mouth; sorry if that's incorrect.)

The mighty dragon suddenly morphed forward, all of the mass in it's rear flying forward to it's maw to form a giant alligator like maw that came crashing down. Gaius hung in midair, forming vast amounts of ki to try and defeat this foe. Xylo wasn't able to even fight back, so he prayed he could keep up this hyper offensive strategy. Fortunately, he wouldn't have to! For this he thought, was the end! He slowly raised his hand to the sky, opening his palm as wide as he can as electricity crackled. Within moments, a giant orb was birthed into this world, and within a few more devastation would obliterate forward...
Gaius threw the attack with daemonic laughter, sending it straight at Xylo. The special effect of the orb? Everything it destroys is reformed into a forest after the blast wave, almost like a white hole explosion then a black hole. Gaius had to follow it up, but how? He screamed the first thing that came to his head, "PANPHOBIA!" His entire body ignited blood red, screaming a horrific whistle that burned ear drums half a mile away. The Alligator maw would changed into a armored behemoth that would foot ball tackle Xylo if it got the chance, attempting to bash him into the charging Gaius. The battle was escalating quickly!
