'I told you. Don't ever call me by that name!' Varz takes a leap towards Franz.

A big snake appears from that giant snake' mouth. It is heading to Varz very fast. Seeing that, Varz quickly unsheathes his sword and slash it into 2 like a lumber being cut by the circular saw.

When Varz nearly reaches its end, Franz appears out of nowhere with his sword ready to slash Varz's body. Varz immediately spits a gust of wind to summon his wind sword to block Franz's surprise attack. Their swords are clashing that they land to the sand while trying to cut each other.

'So you've domesticated that disgusting monster eh? You are not a swordsman for nothing.' Franz said.

'Doraduo isn't a monster!' Varz exclaimed.

They both keep clashing in an incredible speed. If you were there, you would see nothing. All you could do would be the clashing from their swords.

Franz back-dashes and summons his snakes from the bottom of the sea. A horde of snakes is merging out of the sea and heading to Varz. Franz can be seen standing on one of them.

'Dragon, the symbol of lust. An incarnation of a brainless one who always follows his lust only. Saamp Stampaidai!' Franz exclaimed.

'Snake, the symbol of mystery. An incarnation of a dick-head who claims that he is mysterious while the truth he is literally garbage. Badai Halilintar (Thunderous Storm)!' Varz exclaimed raising his swords to summon great wind and thunder to wipe the horde out.

Varz can't see Franz anywhere. There's no way a great swordsman like Franz can be killed by such blow.

'Varz! Watch out! Your footing!' Duo exclaimed.

The ground Varz steps on is trembling heavily, he immediately ejects a gust of wind from his soles to launch him to the sky, and then a giant snake emerges from the underground and spits Franz from its mouth. Franz swings his sword to coil Varz. Strangely, Varz let Franz coil him meekly.

'Gotcha!' Franz exclaimed pulling his sword.

When Varz's body is reaching Franz, Varz says, 'Gotcha.'

A whole of Varz body turns into a shock of thunder and automatically strikes Franz. Franz can do nothing but wait for it goes off. Suddenly, Varz appears in front of him raising both of his swords.

'Teknik Jitu: 484 Tebasan Suci! (Ultimate Technique: 484 Holy Slashes)' Varz exclaimed slashing Franz 484 times in an unbelievable speed and sending the last blow by sending a heavy slash to Franz that he falls crashing that big coral reef that it is devastated to dust.

Varz lands and comes to that keeled over Franz. His face looks as if he is dying and his blue Iru leaks from his body like fumes coming out from the teapot nozzle. Varz points Doraduo sword to him.

'Don't ever think it's over.' Franz said smirking.

'What the hell do you mean?' Varz asked.

A giant blue snake emerges from his body out of nowhere and immediately pecks Varz. Varz immediately blocks its fangs with both of his swords. They are really strong that Varz is unable to cut them. Varz then spits a typhoon to make a distance from it.

'What the hell?!' Varz is panting.

'If you think it's over already. You are literally wrong!' The snake exclaimed.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

'Varz, you must kill it right away!' Arz exclaimed from Varz's inner. 'He is shedding! When it happens, his real body will be weakened, and that big snake will guard him until the process finished. And if it's done, his strength will be doubled up permanently!' He added agitatedly.

Varz swings his sword and it emits a wind slash towards it, but it doesn't make any scratch on it.

'Weak.' It is provoking him.

"Its skin is very thick that my wind slash can't slice it. Then..."

Varz channels his Iru to his swords that the blade is cloaked in thunder and the another is cloaked in the cyclone. Varz then dashes to it. It summons a horde of snakes to stop him. Varz slices up those snakes in a jiffy and takes a leap to that big snake head immediately. Varz points his swords to its head and exclaims, 'Excaoff! (the word "Libur" in Indonesian means off. Well, I don't want to have a business with that fandom anymore.)' Thunder and cyclone beam come hitting its head and Varz is falling hitting the sand as he is out of Iru.

Varz is unable to stand. He barely sees the snake is still standing there, and then it bursts out before he is very eyes. He sees Franz gets up with his blue Iru healing his body. Varz is trying to get up, but suddenly Franz steps on Varz's head.

'Don't ever think you could kill me that easily.' Franz said shaking his sole. 'I won't let you happy, Vincent.' He added piercing Varz's back penetrating his abdomen with his sword.

Varz and even Doraduo can't do anything but hold the pain.

'Franz! Stop it!' Arz exclaimed.

'It's futile Arz, he can't hear you!' Barz exclaimed.

'Do you know how long have I waited for this moment? I always wanted to do this to you!' Franz spits on Varz's head. 'Frankly, I don't want you to die. Weird, isn't it? Why am I doing this whilst I don't want you to die? It's because I want to see you being tormented in this world!' He added pulling out his sword and starting to trample him, kick him, and whip him with his sword.

'Franz...' Arz said unable to believe what his brother just said.

'I am the one who provoked the villagers to hate you. I am the one who made the pin-head duo, Irwan, and Kamila to bully you as I told them that you would make the holocaust 20 years ago happen again.' Franz keeps torturing Varz mercilessly. 'But, what makes me wonder is, why don't Dini, Haris, and Lucas believe me? Or by any chance, you've taken a head start so they hate me so much, huh?!' Franz piercing Varz with his sword again.

'That bastard! Varz! Stand up! Kick that bastard's ass!' Irz exclaimed.

'Stand up, Varz! I won't forgive you if you lose to such asshole!' Karz exclaimed.

'Varz! Pull yourself together!' Dora and Duo exclaimed.

Varz raises his head with his face full of bruises and tears.

'Then why are you befriending me?' He sobbed. 'I am glad to have a friend like you. We have trained and played till now. You are not just a friend of mine, you are just like my own brother.' Varz starting to cry.

Franz suddenly gives Varz's face a heavy kick. 'Befriending you? In your dreams! Don't get me wrong. What's good about befriending you anyway?! I did that just to make sure you don't die. I don't want to break my toy. It's just not fun, is it?' Franz keeps torturing Varz mercilessly.

At this rate, It's impossible for Varz to fight back but scream in pain, but he is too exhausted to scream. Tears and bruises have drained his Iru and stamina. He is just nothing but a living sand sack which is just a matter of time till it is fully devastated.

'I do love seeing you like this! I will never forgive you because you stole my brother! Since that day, he had always kept you company leaving me. That's why I framed you to kill him so the villagers would hate you more for murdering Arz, the strongest Swordsman of the Stars!' Franz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Irz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Karz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Jarz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Garz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Carz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Barz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Arz exclaimed.

'Varz! Stand up!' Dora and Duo exclaimed.

"They are... Rotting for me? They do hate me, don't they? I've been so lonely all this time, why keep living anyway? Isn't death a better choice? But, Dini, Haris, Lucas never hate me. They don't mind befriending me. Not to mention Katon, Herman, Kartika, Alfi. They are my friends too." Varz said in his inner.

Varz sees Alfi extending his hand to him.

"Stand up." He said.

Franz is about to pierce Varz's head, but suddenly a black ball and blue beam hit Franz head that Franz gets shoved hitting the sand. Alfi quickly draws and throws the magic curtain to Varz to heal him. After the magic curtain healed him, Alfi helps him stand.

'Ready for round two?' Alfi asked.

'Who do you think I am? Just worry about yourself so you won't bother me.' Varz said.

'Loudmouth.' Alfi said smiling at him.

'You are one to talk.' Varz said smiling at him.

Herman, Katon, Koji, Darz, Harz, and Larz appear.

'Sorry, we are late.' Herman said.

'Varz! We'll assist you!' Darz exclaimed.

Franz stands up and says, 'Tsk, reinforcement, eh? Fine by me as I'll kill all of you so I can see the miserable you again!'

'We won't be murdered by the likes of you! It's because we are friends, and we'll make sure that our bond won't be broken by an asshole like you! I'm... Not alone anymore!' Varz exclaimed.
