A battle that felt all too calm.

Kirai had rushed forward and done his best to face off against the teens initially. However, he was groggy, he'd just woken up afterall. The three had taken advantage of this, rushing him from all directions with a surprisingly coordinated assault and managing to leave him winded for several moments.

However, after that passed? He'd take a deep breath. "That's just about enough warming up, I think I'm properly woken up now." He'd say, looking up and smiling at the three of them. His smile seemed somehow, too wide. His face was as beautiful as ever, but also, somehow predatory. Almost like a shark.

Then, he'd simply burst into a spray of black water the next time one of them hit him, his body proving as corporeal as the air around them. In that moment Aki would see a dark shap beside her, with terrifying, glowing eyes. She'd barely have time to register it's presence before his foot would fly up and catch thebeautiful young girl in the abdomen, sending her flying into the air.

Only to find three copies of him intercepting her, each one bringing their fists back to simultaneously slam them down into her and into the ground.

She would not get up again before the fight was over.

Next, as his afterimages fade his gaze shifts to Himari. Thrusting his palm forward, he'd send a wave of raw mana rippling through the air, the sound of a water droplet disturbing a calm pond accompanying the sound. She'd be buffeted by the energy even as Kirai's shadow-clad self rushed around the arena, gathering momentum before shooting forward to tackle her from behind.

With her in a grapple, he'd tense his muscles and promptly launch them both high into the air, letting go at the climax of their ascent and delivering a spinning kick shrouded in flowing black water to send her slamming back down into the ground, directly next to Aki.

Kirai would seem to hover for a moment, held up by the force of the blow he'd just dealt his teenage niece.

"And now, you're the only one left, little Shinji..." He'd say softly, his tone sounding rather pitying, but those that knew him would know it wasn't that. No. In fact, it was a subtle kind of sadism. For he had regained total control of the situation, and his son?

His son had lost, already.

Landing in front of Shinji, Kirai would allow the boy to try to land several blows, deftly dodging and deflecting each and every one of them. Then, as the boy overextends himself to land a blow? Again, Kirai would fade into nothing more than flowing water as his illusiory afterimage was destroyed.

Shinji would then become aware of his father's fist, pressed firmly against the boys chest. In the wake of it a shockwave would spread from behind Shinji and the sound of a torrential rainstorm would briefly be heard, before fading as Kirai slowly lets the boy down to the ground.

"It seems I'll see you all for lessons next month, as planned."

Yami Kurokaiyo has cooked a jerky!

Watching their father do battle was always a treat. He was fierce, watching him was like a lesson in it's own right. He could keep up with the best of them. He was the ultimate unbeatable wall and no one would ever topple him. At least that's what Akira believed. There was no reason not to believe him after all.

He was strong. He was cool. They hadn't seen him lose ever, he was just too great.

"A pleasure to watch, as usual father. You never stop improving."

Recka says, "...."

Recka says, "Fite."

Recka asks, "Who FITE?"
Holly Hargrave has cooked a jerky!

Julius steps forth, putting a hand up!

"Hey, wait a second sir." he shouts out loud.

"...Y-You gotta teach me how to do the kind of things you're doing." After seeing him so thoroughly trash that many men, it was obvious the prospect of learning from such a powerful man intrigued him greatly.

"I went two for one on those three guys; I kept fighting even though I didn't have to and I almost took your kid down! Surely that shows I got talent, right?"
(Julius)

Recka cranes his neck walking towards Julius as he said:

"Foo, you no beat!"

Shinji Kurokaiyo says, "You bakana you've gotten within my five meter range"
What was this feeling Aki was feeling from Kirai? His stance in person was something else fighting it face to face.

Utter calmness

Total control

His fist felt like heavily weighted iron bricks that slowed you down holding you in place blinding you while he relentless beat down each and everyone of of us with ease. However the little trio were able to take down Kirai only once from the start as it seemed he wasn't taking them seriously but as he arose from the ground after being beaten by the team work of the three he got serious.

He was much more swift now, and woke of his surroundings making it much more harder to attack his flank. Aki was singled out from the start being taken down. She wasn't able to withstand his emotionless movements that struck her quickly without haste.

She felt as if she was drowning. She felt trapped. She couldn't do a single thing, not being able to get away and he only pushed further pasted her defenses. Lifted into the skies being kicked into the stomach as the shadow's rushed up towards her and finish her off mid air with a barrage of punches sending her and slamming her downward into the ground.

"W-what is this powe-"

She had no time to comprehend what had just happened falling down to her knees. Not being able to have the strength to even speak or move. The only thing Aki could do now was watch as his Kirai came in toward Himari rushing toward him and beating her down with a flying kick spinning kick.

His calmness, his flow was unmatched. Aki had felt Father got stronger since the last time she's seen him there was no mistake. He was getting better?

However Aki's keen eyes didn't falter for a moment. She kept her eyes on how he was able to distinguish clones at his aid to relentless beat each and everyone one of the Kurkokaiyo's down. Now in her brain she felt that the key to those illusion's of hers was being able to keep that flow, that quickness, that concentration while fighting and maintaining a good flow of mana displaying metaphysical attacks with each punch.

Shinji had no chance as well he was downed just like the rest of the kids within a blink of an eye as well. They had no hope once he got serious. Finally it was all over Aki managed to gather the strength to get back up dusting herself off and her clean kimono.

"As strong as ever I see...I-I feel you've gotten even stronger. You're ablity to maintain such control and calmness never ceases to amaze me father...I will master a way to be just like you one day." She'd bow thanking him for the lesson and being able to see his feats up close was something rare till next month.

"Hyah!"

A single cry as she'd aim to send her power into her fist and dissipate at quick speeds to apply a spinning kick towards Kirai in a floating manner. She aimed for quick and tactical movements while also adding up to what the others produced and laid onto Kirai. Her power was close to her uncle in any way but with her coordination with the other two, it was a definite victory.

She held her fist tight and her frame all the same. Her body twisted with her flexibility to channel energy through body. A quickened dash towards Kirai as she aimed to lock her arms around his calves to keep him in place as a form of tackle. As this was acted, it would've provided the others to attack as well, which they did. An easy coordinated attack!

Her body would flip backwards as she got up and soon she'd hold her hand out with thrust of her palm. A shout as mana was released from her hand to pierce through and interrupt Kirai's own circuits. The hint of magical air and the audible sound of blowing wind succumbed around him in a damaging attack.

"Disappearing Flying Kick!" she shouted, her body moving briefly at quick speeds to give the illusion of her disappearing which she'd instead appear right before Kirai. The heel of her foot would land right into Kirai's gut, pushing him back and leaving him dazed. A second prior to Himari putting her foot down as she'd kept her stance tight and firm, ready for the next assault the leader was going to release.


But it came all too quick.


The tranquil feel of water droplets would enter her ears as a similar palm thrust headed her way. She did her best to blockade the attack before it dealt too much circuitry damage to her frame. But that left her open from behind. A side-glance as the quick appearance of Kirai came and slammed his body into her, taking her down to the ground in a tackle.

Feeling the tensely form of his muscles, she couldn't feel the urge to get up. He was too strong for her own strength, but once she did. She would be met with his own kick. It came so quick that the next thing she knew, she was next to Aki on the ground.

It seemed she'd have to clean the floors after all. But remembering the one last code of the Kurokaiyo. She didn't let this defeat against her Uncle dwindle her spirit. Instead, it only boosted it more to extended heights. She learned more from it definitely.

"I didn't expect any less from, Uncle. We did well guys. We'll just have to try harder next time. Uncle's tranquil waters is too much for us currently," she states, getting up and fixing her kimono.
