As ryo returns from his flashback he holds his face still distraught wondering just what kind of purpose he can serve after ryo comes to his senses he sees someone in the shadows

“ who the hell is there “ ryo says going on the defensive

“ it seems like all the government work has left me a tad bit rusty on how to survive in the wild , yaknow us belmonts always used to live more secluded than the other houses but who could blame us it's in our blood and besides we live for the hunt “ lucious says as he readies his whip he then cracks his whip sending sonic boom towards ryo witch does kind of intimidate him . as lucious cracks his whips all around him ryo sees something to generate its as if wind was gathering around him and the more he cracked his whips the more wind seems to gather and in turn the sharper the whips get ryo sees this and uses the flames from the campfire to summon his grimoire but its unusual even for a grimoire it's as if its blank with no assigned magic at all “ AH so you've found a grimoire so that explains how you got your magic , i had to get it the old fashioned way “ lucious says as he cracks his whips around ryo , ryo dodges the attacks as he summons a karambit like knife made out of damascus he then lowers himself and starts doging lucious attacks and runs towards him . As Ryo gets closer he starts using his magic with the karambit to slice through the wind attacks from Lucious “ ah so his knife it has some kind of negation capability ? or is it just him ? but still it's surprising that he got his hands on a grimoire all tho it seems like he has several abilities in his arsenal better be on my toes then “ lucious exclaims in his head as he then starts going hand to hand against ryo . ryo then uses a ability “ smoke out “ ryo says as lucious hits him and ryo turns into a puff of smoke and then expands exponentially. ryo then appears outside the smoke cloud but lucious then uses his wind to get out of the cloud by jumping into the air he then wraps his whip around his arm and uses his air around him to dash towards ryo at blinding speeds and punches him in the gut shattering some of his ribs and almost breaking his spine ryo is then sent flying after the punch and lands breaking couple of trees “ kid if you want to fight someone like me you're gonna need to learn how to control your magic and mana better cause your shield your reinforcement is weak “ lucious says as he backs off unraveling is whip from his arm and ryo escapes by using “ spacial tear “ and teleports away near the electric cafe he starts entering the building but falls on too the ground due to his injuries william sees this since he was drinking coffee and reading a book he then decides to do something risky . meanwhile john is seen winded after killing thousands if not millions of clones that frezzy conjured up and frezzy after seeing this gets kind of scared and starts to lose hope but he reinsures himself that hell get through to his brother and bring back the brother that loved and cared for his family “ if you think you'll get through to me by showing me the mistakes of my past then think again bro im not the little kid you knew i grew up “ john says as he starts shooting rapidly at frezzy . frezzy gets hit by a couple of the bullets but managed to deflect most of em but as frezzy tried to use his bone magic he realizes that he cant use it its as if his connection to magic was severed somehow but its not all bad frezzy does have his own mana pool of witch he can draw from so he can still live since he is still a skeleton frezzy then readys phobos and starts sending slashes of fear towards john but john evades all of the slashes but one hits but it does nothing and john didn't even use magic reinforcement on his body to take the blow john then reaches frezzy and stabs him into his chest where his soul should be . “ its been a bash lil bro “ john says as he drains frezzy of his souls power and his existence but he's then stopped by Ivan who found them by cutting a portal to the soul dimension ivan then points his blade at john “ dare even touch my friends and ill fucking gut you , you spanish bitch “ Ivan says as he esacpes with frezzy as he does someone watches .
