Okay, this was getting crazy. What the hell? Why is it not even taking any damage!? Kiku eyes were amazed, something like that was so strong?! Then there was the other wraith, it was... scary alright. Floating knives, hammers and even spear were it's weapons. It's head was now a dark metal helmet, that had a clowns body. A clown in a knight's armour. Ah fuck. He was so screwed. Well, he could run away... But who is going to do that, the more the challenge the more the fun. Oh well, if he got killed then so be it, let's challenge god now shall we? His face turned into a mischievous smirk as his back straightened. That wraith with the syringe was his! With a sliding kick, he tripped the wraith under it's own feet as it fell to the ground with a loud crash. "Here's a present for you!" He did a backflip that launched the enemy back into the air and with a loud roar he started to kick viciously multiple times before doing a reverse thrust kick to send it into a pile of rubble. "Hmph. Wh-what?!" The wraith got back up with no scratches, well that was a surprise. "No damage!?" This wraith was a tough one, then he heard umfamiliar footsteps. "Try observing what type of wraith it is before you attack next time." It was that man from earlier. Wait, he's still alive? In blue, he gave a glance to his younger fellow Puer Magi, as if they were nothing. "It has a doctor motif, this means it has healing powers. So small blows like that aren't going to work. You have to attack with burst damage." Kiku gave a skeptic look, who the hell does this guy think he is? Before he could retort, the man just charged at the wraith the same it he did before, this time he wasn't knocked back but he sent a huge powerful blow to the wraith's midsection. The wraith seemed to be weakened and looked like it winced in pain. Then Kiku realised the man's hand were embued with a white glow. With a fierce right hook and then a earth-shaking uppercut, the Puer Magi started to glow black and had forced both of his palms into the wraiths' midsection as black liquid spurted out like ink. Then a blue energy started to appear, "KIKOSHO!" then it enveloped the wraith and the man before a pillar of cobalt energy burst into the sky. A man stood there, holding black blocks with an indifferent look on his face. He turned around and deflected an incoming flying knife with a bare fist. "Hmph. You won't give up will you?" The voice was annoyed alright. Kiku was stunned this Puer Magi was powerful, he had to move out of the way, since he started to dash forward at the other wraith. He started off with a bicycle kick, smashing his feet while in mid air at the gigantic being's torso. Then he spun upside down, legs outstretched like a helicopter, his feet glowing a dark purple, which connected against the knight, to which he transitioned into series of kicks that spun upwards in a clockwise motion. The final kick lifted the being high into the air, seemingly stunned and immobile and with a fierce howl the Puer Magi smashed his leg onto the wraith making him and the creature down fall straight down. As they hit the floor, the ground shook violently as a shockwave of violet energy flung upwards and then plummeted straight back down, engulfing the area in a royal purple light for a momentary period. Kiku couldn't really see what was going on... The Puer Magi came back out of the light that lingered with his hands balled into fists. "Any second later and you all would certainly be dead." He told them all in a stern and cold voice. Kiku looked around, the bodies of two boys laid there... Wait? They were breathing? Aren't they dead...? They were wraiths right, so they shouldn't even be alive. "You're probably wondering why they're still alive right? You see most fo the wraiths we fight are familiars that give grief cubes. However, find the original and they'll turn back into the magical boy they once were. They still can turn into wraiths however and that can gives us plenty of energy for our quota." Kyubey stood among the chaos, as if it were something easy or normal. That bastard... So if they turned into wraiths, they could turn back into them again?! So they're stuck in an endless cycle!? This isn't fair! "You knew this right? Didn't you Chunki?" Red eyes were now focused on the older magical boy. "Hmph. It wouldn't make any difference right?" He then walked over to a young boy, the one on the floor with a white labcoat. He searched the body, checking to see there was something important. Ah, found it. He held an emerald gem in his hand. The kid's eyes, were sleepy, half awake. "Hey, mister what are you doing to my gem there...?" Chunki looked indifferent as he examined it. "Healing powers huh? Interesting." With that, the green stone was smashed into pieces and the young boys eyes widened and turned lifeless. Kiku's mouth was wide open, to do something so cruel... A kid that was too... It was far to evil even for him. Then he walked over to the swordsman in black and smashed his foot on the white gem, crushing it to pieces. Kiku swore he heard a pained gasp. Before Kiku could even say anything the man spoke "Now to all of you...You're all here because of these things right?" The man held out the black cubes they all were yearning for... And then he threw two to each of them. He even threw some to a young man spying from afar. "That should be enough to purify a fully tainted soul gem. Tell me... Are you all selfish or selfless magi? Actually... If you're selfish then get out of here and this city. If you're not, it doesn't matter, you shouldn't be in here anyway. Listen, three months from today... Something... I don't know what it is... But I know's it's called Warlpurgisnacht, it'll come to here... That's the reason why the wraiths are so strong here. I don't know what will happen when it arrives but I know it won't be good. I'm giving you three months to harvest as many of these as you can. Please, leave afterwards." Warlpurgisnacht.... Kiku's heard of it before...
