Lord Shadow

And light exploded out of her, blinding everyone.

Like a Sun is about to descend. And at this moment her entire attire changes. She is now dressed in what look like a traditional attire of Japan.

On her neck there is a necklace of jewel, each of the jewels emanated powerful fluctuation of energy.

And a vision suddenly appeared all over the sky of Arturia. This vision also seems to be competing with the Heavenly Will.

Hikigaya frowned a bit

'Divine class, huh. If this war did not happen, how could we draw you people out?' he thought to himself. Death Monarch had his reason for initiating this war. And Hikigaya has his reason.

Japan might seem powerful right now under his protection. But there is still a lot of enemies.

The enemy in the open is easy to guard against.

But not those enemies in the dark.

And he always wanted to bring them out into the open

Hikigaya always wanted to destroy Yomi.

Not because they are a criminal organization.

But because almost all of the high-ranking member of Yomi is people with divine class.

There is a reason why Hikigaya and Oreki could become the two undisputed warlords of Japan without anyone manage to contend with them

It is a history many people had forgotten.

That Oreki and Hikigaya joined hands with Yomi in the past

And they rise together.

Yomi rules the darkness and Oreki and Hikigaya rules the light.

One on the surface, in the open and one in the dark, hidden

This cooperation benefited each other.

Yomi kept the monsters, the criminals so vile that they could not even be called humans in check and Oreki and Hikigaya keep the peace

But monsters do what monsters does.

And even though they might hope that it would last, probably from the moment they ally with each other, they could feel that there is an expiration date to their alliance

The alliance broke, Yomi was broken and they had to flee and hide.

And then with Death Monarch declaring war on them, these criminal organization banded together to fight the world powers.

And now…. there is today scene.

Amaterasu is not his target. His target has always been Izanagi and Izanami.

But he clearly underestimated Amaterasu

'Pain is really the best stimulant drug' he mutters

The energy that Amaterasu is now emanating is almost reaching Divine Comprehension leveler.

Above her, there is an image, a projection of sorts, coming from the light she emanated

Hikigaya tries to send his Divine Sense to disrupt it but it felt like his divine sense collided with air, passing through nothing.

There is a titanic being bestowing necklace of jewel to Amaterasu.

And she sits high on the High Celestial Plain.

It then shows her entering a cave and darkness seems to fell upon the world. And it is the same darkness that is now enveloping the entire island continent

This is like a divine projection. Eight hundred myriads of gods appear above the sky, all of them have their unique appearance

The scenes show these eight hundred myriads gods collected cocks, whose crowing preceded the dawn

'Is that….' In the battlefield, fighting, Oreki could also see that projection.

This projection seems to be projected everywhere and seems to appear in their vision like they are looking at a story being unfolded

Oreki and his soldiers, Hikigaya and his devotes, people from Japan that fight in this battle all saw this and knows what this story is about

Amaterasu hides herself inside a cave, the world lost the light of the Sun and the gods crafted plot to bring Amaterasu out

In the projections, the gods then hung a mirror

They also hung jewels on a sakaki tree in front of the cave

The Goddess Amenouzume dances and Amaterasu came out of the cave to know why the gods could make merry while the world was plunged into darkness.

She went out, the cave is closed and Amaterasu is once again in the world, the light of the Sun shines again and the world regain life

This vision to any other person would seem a little bit weird but to people of Japan and to people who knows the mythology of Amaterasu, they did not find this weird.

Instead, it is very familiar to them

The vision ends and a mirror was formed from these visions, a minor that then falls into Amaterasu hand 𝙡𝙞𝒃𝓻𝒆𝓪𝒅.𝓬𝒐𝒎

Hikigaya could not fully understand what Amaterasu had done but he could understand that this must be some kind of ritual.

The light around Amaterasu had faded

'It's now!' Hikigaya thought in his mind and he moves his finger.

Below the platform, like it was responding to his finger movement, Hikigaya warrior avatar did not wait as he rushes toward Amaterasu.

Amaterasu saw the attack that is coming towards her and she smiles

'I will not be confident to attack you if you could use your whole power. But a slightly stronger Disk Formation avatar of yours? I am confident!' she shouted the words and light exploded out of her.

Only this time the light is like laser beams. Everywhere around these thousands of beams of light is heat. It pierces space and leaves it crack.

Hikigaya eyes narrowed.

'Warrior, fight!'

Hikigaya give title to his avatar. This kind of avatar is unlike his any other avatar. Some of his avatar has his own thoughts and could act independently.

And some are like this avatar.

They are more like a robot with a certain program.

When they finished their objective, they would disappear. Hikigaya did not show his frustration but only he knows that he is infinitely feel frustrated right now.

He had used a lot of power to create the Hyakki Yakou. That was sent to contend with the sea monsters. Even now as he is sitting here, on his throne, his mind is now filled with images of his illusion demons fighting the sea monsters

He could divide his consciousness but there is also a limit.

That is why this Warrior avatar did not have much thought. Hikigaya is thinking a lot of things but Amaterasu did not have so much thought.

Her thought is simply to make sure some things and paved the way for the next step of the plan.

The beams of light are still coming toward the platform. And the only thing standing between this sharp light is the Warrior.

The Warrior raised his sword.

It is a samurai sword, a katana. The moment his power was stimulated, the force exploded from that sword. Above, the clouds gathered.

But this cloud is not the cloud of nature. But it is an illusion. An illusion that become real, the energy of the world was sucked into these clouds, turning unreal into real, illusion into reality

These clouds gather like soldier lining up.

The clouds were white like an unstained canvas, covering the darkness and then it turns dark. And then it brings down rain.

Droplets of water fall down from the sky and then boom!

The thunder roars and shook the heaven and earth.

Lightning flashed and illuminated the darkness.

All of this happens in a few second and it shock those who seen the drastic change of weather.

Before, it shines with golden light, showing the image of eight hundred gods, a story projected into the sky.

Even though it is the enemy method, the method feels like a method of good, showing the skies with golden light

But now, when it is Hikigaya turns to show his method, the method seems like an evil spell. The Warrior stimulated his power, clouds gather and turns dark, thunder roars and lightning criss crossed all over the skyscape like thunder dragons

What a drastic change!

The light beams come closer to the Warrior. The Warrior smiles and the sord on his hand is wing forward.

'Cut!'

Thunder from the clouds fall down from the sky and those tens of thousands of light beams was dispelled.

'Attack!' Hikigaya ordered and the Warrior kicks the ground. The ground beneath his fete exploded, leaving a five feet deep crater.

But the Warrior has dashed forward toward Amaterasu.

'Be careful!' Mister Moscow shouted.

The dust rises around his feet and swirls into a mini tornado, the sword pointed straight toward Amaterasu

The speed is like lightning but Amaterasu smiles and laughs

She uses her left hand and make a pinching movement. A second passed and the sword that pointed toward her heart has been stopped

All over the world, the people that choose to watch this battle gulped. The screen could not even process the speed that these two are moving.

The battle itself was fought in such a swift manner that they could only see afterimage or a blur.

They see Hikigaya avatar brought out his sword, swings it, the light beams that is akin to spears was dispelled in one swing of the sword

The warrior then kicks the ground, the ground exploded, the sword pointed toward Amaterasu.

It seems like in that moment, Amaterasu death is sealed and the sword would pierce her.

But in that span of one moment, the sword thrusted froward, and two finger pinched the sword tip.

Two fingers pinched the tip of that sword and the energy that should explode out of that sword stuck at the tip.
