Author note: I as well was a bit disappointed in the battle scene. i wanted to get Light to be OP, but didn't exactly show how powerful X was.....and i still think i haven't done it right! but!! i wrote a better battle scene here, and its your choice whether you think that one is the true battle or this. other than that, enjoy~!!!
also, tell me if you enjoyed this battle....and if you did, i'll try to make all the battles from now on this good or even better.
so yeah, this whole chapter is a battle scene.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Well....that wasn’t much fun, right?”
with such words, Light played with Ai’s severed hand.
and as if the playing was a trigger to something, the whole world’s time was rewound.
with the world slowly returning to the state it was, people who should already be dead are back alive.
and Light was walking backwards, toward the location he was when X teleported for the first time.
this time, rather than expressionlessly, he was smiling.
“what’s so funny?”
asked the calm X.
he then opened his fist, and as if holding something, threw it toward the ground.
Light, which was directly below what X just threw, Fell to the ground instantly.
the ground which Light fell on also bent downward.
the only logical explanation would be that gravity changed in that spot.
“Hey, how does it feel to be on the other end of a battle? this time, you’re kneeling on the floor.....so how does it feel?”
said X sarcastically toward Light, who couldn’t even move a single muscle.
but then, Light, who couldn’t even talk, opened his palms toward in the ground with great difficulty.
and the earth returned back to what it was a few moments ago.
X, who expected as much, used the same skill yet again.
although this time, he uttered the skill’s name.
“<
before Light could even stand up, X threw another ‘one’ toward the ground.
no...this time, he threw it directly at Light’s body.
Light clicked his tongue and quickly turned over his back.
what he held in his hand was his beloved Nodachi.
Light extended his hands, and as soon as he did that, he let go of the sword and rolled over to the side opposite of X.
the Nodachi, which struck the floor, was crushed to pieces.
it seems....that what ever was causing the increase of gravity, hit the sword rather than Light.
X, who was surprised, took off his mask while laughing at himself.
perhaps he thought something along the lines of ‘I really can’t beat him alone’.
“You.....if it isn’t creepy Nii-sama!”
said Light, who didn’t expect that the creepy guy he swore to torture would actually have this troublesome ability.
While saying that, Light used <
this time around, he shot 6 shots rapidly.
X, who turned around to face Ai muttered “<
and all 6 shots were returned to Light from all direction.
Light, smirked, and shot another two toward X.
“<
asked X toward Light, who was blown to smithereens.
yet.....his body parts soon retracted, and formed the ordinary looking Light.
“Woah! if i didn’t somehow protect my head, i would’ve already died!”
ironically, saying his only weakness outloud.
X, who was looking straight at Ai, conveyed the start of their plan.
Ai took out twin swords from her sleeves and began running toward Light.
X made a throwing gesture, and threw a lot of ‘them’
Light stood in his place, still wearing the creepy smile.
X didn’t think that the increase in gravity would hold Light for enough time that Ai could strike his brain.

so he teleported near Light, and held him.
“With this, i’ll be come a gravitational force myself......!”
But X made the mistake.
he couldn’t notice anything differ, even though the first ‘thing’ he threw should have touched the ground already.
well we can’t blame him, they are invisible.
with no change whatsoever, X shouted “<
normally, if he was the center of gravity, it’ll double if not triple the normal gravity increase produced with <
and yet.....nothing happened.
Ai, who noticed something was wrong, wanted to pull back, but she came too close too fast to back off.
in her eyes, she can see exactly what kind of expression Light is making.
rather than an expression of shock, boredom or even rage....all he had was an expression of extreme joy.
every cell in her body told her to stop, but she simply couldn’t.
in the end, she came too close to Light.
this was produced by her lack of hesitation toward the execution of the plan....her absolute trust toward her maker, X.
“Hey hey hey~! if you’re not careful.....”
Light said toward god knows who.
then, Ai, who should have immunity toward the gravity increase in the ground due to her boots, suddenly fell down on the ground.
she....became a lump of meat instantly.
the instant transformation of her normal self to that of a lump of meat shocked X beyond words.
since in the end, why did that all happen?
“Its funny how i can’t use this skill on either you or that miss.....but! i can use it on the stuff you just threw, y’know? that is, i created a small barrier around us! miss was too focused on killing me that she didn’t notice! and she accidentally......came in contact with the stuff you threw!! isn't that great? you just killed her!"
said Light toward the shocked X.
it seemed nothing was registering for him anymore.
“Tsk~ no fun!”
X, with his tears gushing out, pressed harder at Light.
he pressed his jaw so hard, that his teeth began crushing each other.
“YOU.............I’LL KILL YOU!!!!!”
X, who thought of himself as a god as well, lost all respect toward the being he called all mighty.
since in the end, he became the same being as the god he respected.
“Ohh~? good job! it seems like you’re preparing something huge...”
and as soon as he said that, Light broke his neck when he turned it 180 degrees to face X.
with a twisted smile, Light’s body was tore to half.
as for X......he was nowhere to be seen.
no, upon closer inspection, you could notice his head near Light’s upper half.
“So how does it feel? to be killed by a combination of my attack and yours!”
said Light as soon as he rewound to his older body.
“You see....i shot myself through the stomach! and as soon as i did, i released the barrier and rewound time to the time you used yourself as a gravity center! at the same time, i stopped time for everything except for you again! i don’t know exactly how your head alone survived, but good job! i didn’t even expect a speck of dust to remain, honestly....well, this is an experiment yet again! i wish i had the ability over space as well.”
said Light, unusually full of energy.
「You seem unexpectedly in a good mood.」
“Ohh, is that you, Dormouse? of course i am! i just met someone i really hate....and i killed him! just one more to go~”
「You’re creeping me out, Hatter. Hurry up and return to your usual self.」
