THE DECIDING ATTACK
If I fought Hym, even I might lose.
Stop being modest, Larhart.
In a one-to-one, you would probably win.
But in battle, there's compatibility and strengths and weaknesses.
Larhart.
You use your super speed and skills to defeat enemies with blasts and shocks.
You don't fight with Aura skills.
I see.
Hym is still inexperienced in skill, but has that overwhelming Aura.
And it's Aura of Light, something that hurts Mystvearn the most.
Basically, a natural enemy.
Hey Mystvearn...
I feel a little bad beating you up like this.
The Dark Army was full of annoying characters.
But you were the only one who seemed to respect Lord Hadlar.
Hadlar?
That's impossible!
Are you telling my, your Aura and life are a dying gift from him?!
That's the case!
Not that I've got a more logical explanation.
I just want it to be so.
You're saying Hadlar's will gave Hym life?
How is that...
I think so, too, Little Hym!
Miracles aren't for the evil!
You're the 12th member of the righteous Beast King Commandos!
That's all there is!
Thanks a lot, Captain.
Don't make me laugh!
A mere puppet pretending to be the rebirth of Hadlar?!
You forget your place, you worm!
I, Mystvearn, shall use all of my power to shatter you to pieces!
Sorry, but that's not possible!
To shatter my Orichalcum body is something...
only one person in the world can do!
Huh? Me?
Ouch!
Whoa!
Good going, Little Hym!
No! At this rate...! This pawn is stronger than I thought!
Sadly, I have no choice! I have to use that power!
King Vearn!
King Vearn! Can you not hear me?!
No!
He may be fighting Dai,
but I can't believe King Vearn would be so focused as to not hear my voice.
Wait! Is it possible that Dai is pressing King Vearn that much?!
What's wrong, Dai?
Why are you hesitating?
Is he... Is Vearn, the Dark King really this weak?
Or is the Kaglimmer spell affecting him?
No. It barely had any affect on Hadlar.
It can't be affecting Vearn this much.
Then... I've gotten that much stronger?
How does it feel?
To overwhelm an enemy who once defeated you.
I'm asking how it feels.
You question whether it's really me, and can't get a grasp on your own growth.
But very soon...
very soon you'll feel euphoric.
Feel... euphoric?
To drown in your own power.
It's a feeling better than drinking any exquisite wine.
Not that a child would understand the joys of wine.
Mystvearn is moving to the offensive!
Without permission to use that power I must fight with what strength I have!
I will pour all my Dark Aura into this hand!
Here I go!
Dark Aura Ultimate Hand!
Oh no! It's his last ace in the hole focusing all his Dark Aura into his hand!
Hym, don't let that touch you! You have to dodge it!
You can't dodge this! I'll pulverize you!
That idiot! He's not dodging!
That's crazy, Little Hym!
Wait!
That stance!
See?!
Not even Orichalcum can withstand the force of my palm!
Oh no!
Now shatter into pieces!
No thanks!
I told you only one person can shatter this body!
The best you can do is shatter one arm!
Which lets me get close to you!
My ace in the hole is my left strike!
Aura Knuckle!
I-Impossible! A mere pawn would defeat me?!
This is impossible!
-Yes! -Good going, Little Hym!
It's taking damage to inflict greater damage.
Besides, my arm can be healed with a Heal-type spell.
Now to finish him.
That's not necessary. He's already unable to fight.
More importantly, get his mask off.
His mask?
K-King Vearn...
Oh no. Dai is losing the initiative.
It's Vearn's strange confidence.
I'm sure that he's really fighting at full strength.
He can't be holding back at all.
So why is he so confident?!
Dai! Be strong!
It's possible to win simply through inertia! Stay aggressive!
Leona, don't show yourself!
Huh?!
Now I shall uncloak it!
The mystic veil that hides your power... while I still can!
That flaming bird!
Kaiser Phoenix!
I've seen it before! I can banish it with an Avan Strash!
A simultaneous attack!
Wh-What happened?
It looked like they collided at once.
Where's Dai?!
Dai...
The mighty Dragon Knight.
Even with my greatest attack, I couldn't defeat him.
Dai!
GIGA STRASH
KAISER PHOENIX
King Vearn...
You're saying to pull his mask off?
Mystvearn...
His identity has long been shrouded in mystery.
I believe that his identity
is directly linked to Dark King Vearn's secret.
The Dark King's secret?
He used to never speak at all.
In other words, the face he hides,
or his voice, depending on who hears it,
is a great secret that Vearn doesn't want revealed to anyone.
Are you serious?
When I was in the Dark Army, Vearn to a favoring to me.
Among the Six Legion Commanders, I probably interacted with Vearn the most.
And Mystvearn was my teacher of Dark Aura.
If I can see his real face,
I might be able to get a glimpse of the secret Mystvearn's been hiding for ages.
If we can relay that to Dai as he's fighting Vearn...
I get it! It could give him an advantage in their final battle!
I'm fine with that.
Either way, this guy won't put up a fight..
We can finish him whenever we want.
Pulling off this raiment is no big deal.
"Raiment"...
Here goes.
W-Wait!
Wait a minute!
What's wrong, Big Guy? Why are you yelling?
I think that unveiling Mystvearn's mask could be very dangerous!
Dangerous? What do you mean?
"Don't remove Mystvearn's Shadow Raiment."
Right before we came here from the surface,
Lon Beruk gave me this message for you.
Shadow Raiment?
That's right.
What is that?
You mean the clothes that Mystvearn wears?
I'm not too sure about it myself.
I can only express it in vague terms...
but there's no doubt that something is suppressing his power.
There's only one reason that he and I fought evenly matched for that long.
Just as I was, he, too, wasn't at full strength.
It was a fight between two people holding back.
Even in that ferocious battle?
During our fight I realized
even if he wanted to fight at full strength, he can't.
Probably for a different reason than me.
What he said when he left was proof.
"Maybe if you had fought at full strength
our battle wouldn't have taken so long."
"Of course, the same could be said of me."
Then, Lon Beruk, you're saying Mystvearn is still hiding his true power?
Yes. Something's there.
Don't do anything that would force him to fight a full strength.
Don't remove his Shadow Raiment.
In other word, Lon Beruk described
whatever it is that holds Mystvearn's unfathomable power back
as his "Shadow Raiment."
And that's his mask?
I'm not sure.
But Hym's use of the word raiment made me remember.
Then Lon Beruk meant if there's a chance to defeat him,
do it before he reveals his true power.
Yes.
They make a good point, Hyunckel.
Mystvearn definitely is unfathomable.
And Lon Beruk is the Legendary Craftsman of the Underworld.
Couldn't he be far closer to the secret of the Dark King and Mystvearn than you?
That's possible.
We can't ignore a warning from Lon Beruk.
Hey! So what do I do?!
I don't mind either finishing him or revealing his face!
Hyunckel.
That must be Dai!
The final battle with Vearn has already started!
Hym, it's better that we finish him off here!
What about his true identity?
We should listen to any warning from Lon Beruk.
Plus we need to hurry ahead.
For now, we should get rid of any Dark Army forces that we can.
Sure thing.
Yes. That's the right choice.
Even if this next blow obliterates Mystvearn along with his secret.
The desire to know it may stem from my personal feelings
because he was my teacher, despite it being for evil.
Right now, victory comes first.
Bye Mystvearn! Hope you rest in peace!
King Vearn! King Vearn!
Forgive me!
That was definitely Vearn's deciding attack!
And Dai managed to survive it!
But how?!
All I could see was up to the instant they clashed.
Unbelievable.
To dive into my Kaiser Phoenix.
What?!
In that instant you...
Kaiser Phoenix!
Block my Kaiser Phoenix and my Staff of Edacity hits.
Block my staff and the flames consume you.
Knowing that either way results in damage, you chose to dive into the flames.
A seemingly reckless move.
But inside the Phoenix is the only place from where one can successfully hit me.
I knew I'd be hurt either way, so I chose the way where I could hit back.
Dai are you okay?!
Of course he isn't.
The Dark King's strongest spell hit him.
A natural result.
You may have managed to strike me, but my Kaiser Phoenix hit you directly.
If you were unhurt it would scar my dignity.
Now for another attack!
You won't get the chance!
Now it's my turn!
Before that wound to your shoulder regenerates...
I'll use my deciding attack!
This time, Vearn, it's your turn to defend yourself!
And if I've thought this out right, I know I can defeat you with this!
Interesting! Then let's see this attack of yours!
Huh?!
Doruora?!
Fool. Have you forgotten that Doruora has no effect on me?
No! Doruora will work!
I've fought Dad once, so I know it well!
Doruora is a spell no defense can stop!
Once cast, there's only two ways to survive it!
Withstand it or dodge it!
But when you first appeared, not even your clothes were damaged.
Dark King or not, if you withstood it, you wouldn't be completely unscathed.
But if you dodged it with a Zoom spell, you wouldn't appear from under the rubble!
The secret to how you survived my Doruora spell must be...
in the Staff of Edacity!
Not a bad hypothesis. But what if you're wrong?
Doruora is a spell that drains massive amounts of Magic Power.
I doubt you can use it more than twice.
You used it once, so what if I counter after you've spent all your Magic Power?
I already know that.
Once I use this, my Magic Power will be all spent.
But I know you won't counter!
Take this! Doruora!
He stopped the Doruora with his staff!
I knew it!
The blade of my Staff of Edacity,
can be burst forth as an energy wall that can block any spell.
Just as you hypothesized,
I survived your Doruora by using my Staff of Edacity to block it!
If I can withstand this, I win!
Got you!
Leona!
What?!
Silver Feather!
Curse you!
And another!
Tell me, where are you going all alone?

Dark King Vearn vanishes in the light of Dai's second Doruora.
The shock reaches the White Garden where the others hope to regroup with Dai.
But, though Mystvearn fell before them, he rises once again
and reaches for the raiment that covers him.
