While Theo is struggling with the sudden appearance of the 5 Elder of the Ancient One...
In Lavi's side, they're also struggling to keep up with what's going on with the situation over there... There's only a select few who understand the situation fully without panicking. Those are, Lavi, Althea, Sharion, Lavtura and Bianca. Those 5.
Lavi and Althea knew that the Ancient One has some sort of backer because they felt some unknown energy that rivaled their own. Sharion didn't panic because she felt ecstatic, she wanted to go against Elder Sword to get even stronger. Lavtura who hold the other half of the Temporal Nexus, which is the Love part, can feel an unconditional trust coming out from the Ancient One, which leads her to think that he has some other plan, which is true. Then Lastly, Bianca, being the strategist of the party, she had thought of thousand upon situation that makes sense and might happen in this battle. The appearance of 5 Elder didn't shock her at all.
While the rest of the party, they're shocked and started to panic due to the thought of having to fight the 5 Elder. They already know that it's impossible for Theo to win against them.
Lavi started to think what should he do because his wives are panicking... 'If I were to swoop in and kill the Ancient One right now, then the 5 Elder would have no other choice but to go with Theo and become a thorn in our path.'
"Lavi, Bianca think that eliminating the Ancient One might be the only path. Bianca believes that if Lavi get the power of Creation, then Lavi can help the others got even stronger. Sharion and Lavtura are going to be able to go against the Elders if you temper their ability to fight using that power." Bianca whispered to Lavi, not wanting anyone to know what she is thinking. Naturally, Lavi believes in her because he always believed in her ever since he met her.
'Bianca is right. If I got that power, I can help Lavtura and Sharion to get the same power as the Elder, that would mean that we have even more fighting power. That does mean that we have to play the bad guy, but... I don't really hate playing the bad guy. Because we're up against the real baddie right now.' Lavi couldn't help but smile cheekily when he got the thought of that.
Lavi doesn't like it when he sees the bad guy win. But if he were the bad guy, he doesn't want to lose. So, he steeled his resolve and fully embrace the role of the bad guy.
'The fate of the universe is at stake right here... Just the thought of losing my beautiful life, makes it all worth it playing the bad guy role... I will kill and erase anyone who tries to harm this life of mine.... Including, the Ancient One.' It's easy for Lavi to steel his resolve to kill the Ancient One. Because, he started as a normal man after all. He always used his power for the common folks, so now that there's a threat to that, he is not going to hesitate to use it.
'Even if my opponent is the creator of the universe, I will slay and take that role myself. We have no need for a creator who went to slumber only to wake up and reset the universe!!!' Suddenly, everyone felt Lavi bloodlust rise up. They didn't think that Lavi would tune up his bloodlust to the point that it even send chills down Althea's spine...
"Oh no, Lavi is going to jump in head first..." Sharion muttered lightly.
"I mean, if it's not him, who else is going to jump in first? Not us!" Lavtura ease the mood with that sentence.
Although everyone felt nervous because of that Bloodlust, Lavi isn't directing that bloodlust to them. So they can still joke around.
But then, Lavi keep on that serious aura and stood up from his seat.
"I'm going to go to Theo's planet and take action immediately." Lavi words are getting everyone interested in his action as no one know what he is planning other than Bianca.
"Are you going to help him?" Althea asked, followed by everyone else's stare that wanting to know his plan.
"No. I have no intention to help Theo whatsoever. However, I do have a plan to eliminate our biggest threat and take that power of his for myself."
After revealing his intention, everyone just smiled and then stood up along with him.
"If that's the case, then we're preparing for an all out war from now. Come back as soon as you're done, Lavi." Gwen requested. The first one to go out of the room is obviously Mari, as she needed to prepare more weaponry to make sure that this war doesn't end because they're underarm.
"Of course. I will be back here sooner than later." He didn't really do any intimate things to them, even though they were hoping for it. For Lavi right now, if he do that, then it's just like sending a soldier off to their battlefield only to find them dead at the end of the war.
Lavi doesn't want that. So, he quickly leaves. By quickly, it was Quick. It was only one second ago that he was with them. In that one second, he already left the planet and going straight toward the planet Theo is in...
But, in that same planet...
"Phew, that was fun isn't it?" The Elder Sword stated. His sword was bloodied and his opponent, Theo... Is also bloody...
There's not a major injury in Theo's body other than the severed arm that he received at the start of the fight against the Elder Sword. But his body is riddled with minor cuts that isn't life threatening, but annoyingly hindering his movement...
'Fucker... His control is even better than the Sword Goddess... I don't want to go against her because of that control of her. But this guy, with just one sword, is overwhelming me with mere sword s***h controlled to perfection...'
As expected, Theo is not faring well against true offensive focused personnel of the Ancient One... Now, he banking on Titan to came back and help him with this offense.
