Dark Magus Returns-Chapter 1224: Zon vs Red (Part 1)
The energy from Red's core spread through his body. It was pulsating through his suit like blood rushing through veins on a human, and eventually it reached the palm of his hand.
Moments later and several red energy beams started to blast out from his hand and into the sky. It looked like a mass of rainfall, or an artillery strike.
Zon looked up in the air for a moment, as he knew what was coming next.
'How many times have I seen you use this on the battlefield, when the group was in trouble this is what had saved us many of times, but now, it's being used against me.'
Fighting Red just kept bringing up memories of the past, and they weren't bad ones, they were mostly good ones. This was just building up the anger in Zon even more.
How could, a particular person do all of that? How could he turn his back on the whole group, the whole country that he had fought for, and for what reason.
Zon started to move across the battlefield, zapping his way from one area to the next. From the sky itself, red objects were falling down and piercing the ground.
When looking at them closely, what they were, they were energy weapons. Condensed down to the point where they had made a solid form. Most of them were swords, but all of them appeared in slightly different shapes.
While Zon was avoiding all of the items, at the same time he was condensing the energy in his hands. As he stretched out, made from the pure energy from within, two large axes were being held with a double-bladed edge.
They weren't short axes, but large ones with a rounded curved blade. Right then, Zon's armour started to shift as well and change. The black suit was almost moving, the strange energy circles that were able to be seen on the outside.
They moved from his arms, his chest, and other areas, until there were six of them on his back, three on each side.
He did nothing but use his own body to avoid the attacks until the last of the weapons had fallen to the ground. There had to be over a thousand energy blades that had been used in the current particular situation.
'I've never seen Zon use something like this, I didn't even know the suit could change?' Anna thought as she continued to be just an observer. 'Is this due to the power with his suit energised. We had been training together, but it looks like he had been hiding something from me as well.'
The red energised blades surrounded the entire field, and Red picked two of them up.
"Come on Zon, use all your anger and see if you can best me, but even with more power, I can tell you now, my system says you're going to lose!" Red shouted as he threw the energy sword right towards Zon.
Immediately energy blasted out of Zon's back from the rounded energy circles. It allowed for him to move even faster as his entire body shifted to the side.
It was a burst of energy that immediately stopped when he got where he needed to be, and then when he saw his target, he activated them again. Like thrusters on a rocket, he moved himself forward ready to hurl his weapon right at Red.
Red dashed forward as well with the sword in his hands and swung it against the axes. When the two of them clashed, the axe had broken right through the red energy blade.
But Red quickly scooted around the side, picking up another one of the weapons from the ground and swung it right against Zon's back. Immediately Zon spun his body to swing the axe from over, but Red had already leant back avoiding the axe strike.
He picked up another weapon on the way back up and used all of his strength to smash the blade against Zon's body. The red blade had broke, but it had managed to break through part of the suit.

Zon was swinging the axes all over the place, trying to hit Red but he was always just a little slower, and each time as Red avoided a strike he would pick up another weapon using it to strike against Zon's body.
'I can't believe this.' Anna thought. 'Rather than trying to fight from a distance or from a medium range, Red has decided to fight with the captain head to head.
'With the energy in his thrusters Zon is faster than Red, but that's only when they're going directly at each other. Zon can produce more power with the thrusters as well, but all of that is useless because Red is right next to him.
'Usually the weapons would do next to no damage, but using all of the weapons on the battlefield, Red is using more strength than he would not caring about the strength of the strikes to deal at least some of the damage.'
Eventually the worst of what Anna feared was coming true. Red was using the system to plan everything ahead, the right area to attack and then where he could pick up a weapon, and he was using it to predict Zon's moves allowing him to avoid each strike.
With it, cuts were starting to be made on Zon's actual skin.
"All this talent, and this is what you use it for!" Son said as he swung the axe down to the ground. He didn't aim for Red and an energy pulse exploded. It shifted weapons that were in the area breaking and cracking them.
Zon left the axe in the ground, and looked at Red with his hand opened and palm facing outward.
"I gained a lot more than just a crystal back then!" Zon said, as he used the special artifact.
His whole body disappeared, and a blast came straight out of Zon's hand hitting Red right in the back.
He was now using the artifact he had received from the Deleter.
