As the party walked, joked, and laughed on their way to the dual site, Levi's sword began shaking.
"Woah, why is your sword shaking Levi?" Lucious asked curiously.
"It literally talks to him," Sera replied quickly. "Sometimes it even engraves messages. It's a gift from Chronos passed down through his family."
"Beautiful and intelligent. We should have dinner sometime?" Lucious asked confidently.
Sasha laughed. "Sora, think it's worth giving him a party invite? How else are you going to link with him genius?
"I was just going to create a temporary party seal, but that's up to you two. I don't mind if he's willing." Sora said with a shrug.
"Are we going to become the party of couples?" Celeste joked.
"Apparently…" Bishop said with a giant, booming laugh. "I'm kidding. No offense to any of you beautiful ladies, but I have no interest in any of you."
"All the men aside from Bishop are taken, so I'm out," Jubelle said with a laugh.
"Don't worry buddy, one day I'm sure you'll meet someone great!" Sora encouraged Jubelle.
"Thanks Sora. I love how accepting the party is of me. So are my parents! It's nice to be loved," Jubelle said.
"You're so easy to talk to as well, you've been there for me so much," Leila added.
Lucious quickly teleported and quickly teleported back.
"My family and Dorian are cool with it. What do I need to do?"
"System, please initiate a party seal with Lucious Moonveil with the same conditions as Sasha Valencia."
[Lucious accepted the seal and has joined your party. You are growing in numbers, quickly.]
"Woah, that was cool. It listed off everyone's skills too. Deception?! From a Steele. You pull any of that on Sasha…" Lucious said in amazement.
"Of course not. That skill is for enemies–shit. Sora. My sword, look." Levi said.
As Sora and the party looked at Levi's sword, they could see General Getz leading a demon and werewolf army with around 400 titans. They were headed straight for the settlement.
"How much time do we have?" Sora asked calmly.
"10-15 minutes, at most," Levi said.
"Sora, teleport to Dorian and ask him to send out a message to get all the Originals and armies ready. I can't believe the titans aligned with the demons. Are those werewolves with them as well? What the fuck!" Lucious stated frantically.
Sora was gone in a flash with Brie.
"Dorian, a massive demon and werewolf army is headed toward the settlement with 400 titans. We need all the originals to assemble and the armies to be ready. My party will stall for as long as we can," Sora said with a grin.
"So eager to fight?" Dorian asked with a confused expression.
"That's Julius` father's army. He's a complete piece of shit, that's why Sora is ready. It's the titans I'm worried about. What do you know about them?" Brie asked calmly.
"Just that they're incredibly powerful and around 30-40 feet tall. Hopefully the Grimwald's acidic blood does damage to them. We also have the Blackmore's who are necromancers and the Valtoris family who can talk to and change into animals. Don't do anything that causes you two any harm. If anything, just get out. We can always relocate the settlement," Dorian said sternly. "Now go!"
Sora and Brie teleported to meet with General Getz.
'Holy shit those things are huge. Eye of Chronos.'
The titans kept moving. Everything else froze, which caused the titans to trample some of the demons and werewolves, but it didn't take Sora long to realize how organized General Getz was. He also noticed Lust, Sloth and Gluttony in the back.
"Brie, this isn't going to be easy. Remember, you're my wife and a goddess. You have my power now. You might not have limitless magical stamina, so please accept my link." Sora said as he used his system to activate the link as well as his dimensional void to equip them in their SSS gear.
[Link accepted]
"Of course, babe. Did you ever get a chance to read Bishop's skills? He can clone himself 9 times and they all have the power he does. He's also insanely gifted with elemental magic and his strength is unbelievable."
"I didn't look because we sparred so much and I didn't want to feel like I was cheating. Thank you," Sora said while giving her a kiss.
He felt the warmth from both Brie and him, which made him smile.
"I'm glad you're happy when you kiss me. That feeling will never get old." Sora said with a smile.
"Well, I'm glad you still look at me the way you do, even when I was a human," Brie said while holding his hand.
The rest of the party, including Lucious, teleported to the battlefield.
"This is going to be difficult," Celeste said.
"No doubt. Leila, after we go talk to General Getz get into your true form," Sora said with a wink.
As Sora and Brie approached the center of the battlefield, no polite pre-battle meeting took place. Just General Getz casting a spell at Brie, which did nothing to her in her SSS armor.
"I knew you were a fucking coward!" Sora screamed. "Leila. Let's do this!" Sora said as Leila's transformation shook the ground.
"Woah. That really is Leila Fury. She's so… mythical. Gorgeous dragon. It's a shame the rest of them are gone," Lucious said.
"Just wait until you see what she can do," Bishop said as he cloned himself 9 times.
"Holy shit. There's 10 of you? How strong are your clones?" Lucious asked in amazement.
"We're just as strong as the original," the 9 said in unison. Bishop grinned.
"How many could your brother clone?" Jubelle asked excitedly.
"29. He always had the upper hand on me in one on ones, but I won my fair share of spars. He was my big brother after all. His son could produce 19." Bishop bragged.
"10 of you will be a huge advantage, no doubt about that," Sera said as she grabbed Lucious hand.
"Ready to kick some demon ass?" she said confidently.
He let go of her hand, kissed on the cheek and shadows began forming all around his body.
"Let's show these fucks what we can do!" Lucious roared, ready to fight.
