Chapter 757 Sona's Plight part 2

Kisuke was already confident that his seal would last at least for a few hours, but he was quickly proven wrong when Sona didn't even destroy the seal and 'leaked' through it. Looking at the empty husk that was still consuming his energy, 'Looks like we won't be able to contain her.'

Bakudo 99 doesn't just stop physical movements, but it's mainly for locking the soul up within a separate space temporarily. It is the reason why it was deemed the strongest soul sealing technique outside of unique and secret arts and one would need an overwhelming power or a big explosion of power just to escape it.

However, in Sona's case, she didn't destroy it, but went through the tiny gaps of the seal, regaining her freedom. No matter how strong the seal is, if there's a hidden gap somewhere, Kisuke presumed that Sona would be able to escape any sealing techniques.

Kisuke also contemplated the possibility that Sona could also control the other side of the coin of the ability she's using right now.

Serafall, on the other hand, started stuttering, "D-did she just..."

With a chuckle that didn't match the serious atmosphere, Kisuke replied teasingly, "Isn't that great~? Although not in control of herself, she managed to do that one thing you've been trying to achieve for decades~. How does it feel?"

"Don't ask me!", Serafall instantly retorted before asking, "What should we do now?"

A small smile crept onto Kisuke's face as he thought, 'I wish she'd show that kind of face to Sona.'

He already noticed that both of them are jealous of each other for the things they didn't have. However, this jealousy was within the threshold of a healthy relationship between siblings, but Kisuke wished they would be honest to each other, instead of trying to 'protect' each other.

Kisuke then turned forward to Sona who had now taken out her halberd and thought, 'While Serafall was a little honest, Sona chose to keep it entirely to herself. I'm worried that this will be a big burden to her as she fights off the Hollow's negative emotion amplification. Not to mention my polygamous practices. I know, deep inside her, she didn't want any of these, like everyone else.'

"We have to stop her from getting out of this region or else she'll cause destruction and death everywhere else. For starters, we dodge." Kisuke replied as they saw Sona swing her halberd towards them before a deep blue arc formed and was launched towards the two of them, increasing in size as it traveled through the distance.

Serafall flew up while Kisuke went down, dodging the arc, and saw it hit the sand dunes several kilometers away from them before it created an explosion similar to a nuclear weapon detonation.

"What was that!?" Serafall never thought that Sona would be capable of releasing such destructive Magic.

"Cero. You could say it's similar to the Power of Destruction. But I also didn't think that she'd be able to use it when the Hollow inside her was only a driving force and not intrinsically part of her.", answered Kisuke as he raised his right hand to block the incoming halberd, "Hey now, who do you think taught you the Flash Step?"

Sona reappeared beside Kisuke while brandishing her artificial Sacred Gear. However, instead of getting caught, the blade slid through Kisuke's monstrous grip and sliced off his four fingers, leaving him no choice but to retreat with his own Flash Step.

Sona tried to chase after him but before she could do so, she was instantly encased in a giant block of towering ice, sealing her movements.

But before she could check on Kisuke, Serafall was surprised at the result of her Magic, "...No way... I couldn't even freeze her?"

Although Sona was trapped in the ice, the water around her kept flowing without any change and right now, she started drilling holes through the ice, in which case, she'll only need a few seconds to escape once again.

"Sealing her is useless since she'll just go through the cracks. Blocking, be it physical or magical, is also useless. Like what happened to me before, she just instantly changed the shape of her blade to slip through my grip. Using a barrier on the other hand would only delay her attacks since they are just the same as seals.", Kisuke explained while watching his fingers regrow, but at an exponentially slower rate due to corrosion which he guessed came from the 'destructive' attribute of the Hollow.

"T-that's really overpowered...", Serafall commented on the attacks that couldn't be blocked nor contained without using any special methods, "But it seems that her aggro is on us so we could just run around. Though I hate the feeling of hate she's radiating towards me."

"As I've said, this is something she has to go through herself."

Going back a few minutes earlier, Sona's eyes were closed with balls of water circling around her as she concentrated on her Soul Power, trying to bring out more of it.

She already discovered the special properties of this 'water'. Instead of water, she's actually controlling its fundamental function, 'flow', and the water that manifested was just a byproduct of it.

Thrilled by the discovery of 'Magic' that she never thought possible, Sona became enthusiastic about her research and was very determined to add this strange 'Magic' to her repertoire.

But within the darkness of her own eyelids, her own face with blackened sclera, golden pupils, and crazed smile suddenly appeared in front of her. Violently opening her eyes, Sona gasped for air while wondering, 'W-what was that?'

But a few seconds later, her heart started beating faster for some unknown reason, and her Soul Power became out of control, 'W-what's happening!?' She questioned herself as she clutched her chest.

In a panic, Sona tried to shut off her Soul Power and her Demonic Power, however, the situation only became worse. Without her knowledge, her own eyes had already blackened as her fear of the unknown multiplied, bringing tears down her cheeks.

At that moment, she felt the reassuring presence of Kisuke and Serafall, but just as she called out to them for help, she blacked out.

After an unknown amount of time, Sona found herself floating in a dark space. Strangely enough, however, she could clearly and completely see herself, "What happened? Where is this?"

Nevertheless, she couldn't think straight as the fear that made her cry was still with her and was only getting worse as time went on.

She knew it was her fear of the unknown, but she didn't know why she could feel it this strongly. The feeling was so strong that it wore down on her mental fortitude, reducing her to a state similar to a small child that lost her parents in the crowd, "H-help me... Nee-sama... Kisuke... Please help me..." She started muttering to herself.

All of a sudden, a voice rang out within the darkness, "Look at the mess you've become. How shameful."

It was a very familiar voice since it's the same voice Sona could hear whenever she recorded herself. Looking up in a hurry, she saw herself. No. More accurately, she saw the person that appeared when her eyes were closed.
