As the flesh blade sliced through the air, Orcus spoke, "You neglected to mention something..." His words trailed off as he made his move, leaving Archibald to wonder what he meant.
With his quick reflexes, Archibald was able to dodge the attack and avoid being injured by the blade. He responded to Orcus with a smirk, "And what would that be?"
Their battle continued as they exchanged blows, each determined to emerge victorious. The clash of metal and flesh echoed throughout the area as they fought with all their might, neither willing to back down.
In the heat of battle, Orcus realized too late that Archibald's plan was to use fire magic to counter his shadow manipulation. Even as he attempted to exert control over his shadow, it was too late. Archibald executed a painful manoeuvre and swung his flaming half-moon towards Orcus, dislocating his arm in the process.
Archibald had been waiting for the right moment to reveal his half-moon, and now was the time. The attack made by the half-moon, which had originated from Chigaru's polearm, inflicted a severe wound upon Orcus. The flames that engulfed the half-moon caused even more damage by igniting the already-singed skin surrounding the wound.
Orcus recoiled from the attack, hissing in pain. He had not expected such a powerful strike from Archibald and was left momentarily stunned.
However, he quickly regained his composure and launched a counterattack, this time utilizing his shadow manipulation to its fullest extent.
Archibald had chosen the particular type of flame for a reason, as it had the ability to spread across wounds without cauterizing them, causing even more damage and pain.
Orcus widened his eyes, feeling the flames spreading and intensifying the agony he was already experiencing. He coughed up blood, which dripped down his lips and stained Archibald's clothes.
Archibald, sensing the end was near, prepared his broadsword for the final strike. With a sense of victory and determination in his voice, he spoke to Orcus, urging him to say his final goodbyes. "Now is the time for you to bid your farewell, Orcus," he said as he positioned his sword for the final blow.

"Hey, Tozo! What gives you the idea that you can keep doing this?" Asmodea said to Tozo also know as Orcus.
"Ah... Uh... I want to be powerful, like you. He-Hey! Don't laugh like that, Asmodea," she said. "Ah... Um... I want to be strong, like you."
Asmodea's laughter echoed through the room as she listened to Tozo's plea. She found it amusing that yet another devil wanted to be as powerful as she was. Tozo, on the other hand, felt embarrassed and vulnerable under Asmodea's gaze. He fidgeted nervously on the chair, trying to find the right words to explain his desire to be strong.
Asmodea, a succubus with stunning features, was seated beside Tozo. She had a captivating figure and was considered exceptionally attractive even among other demons. Her voluptuous curves and large breasts drew the attention of many demons, but Asmodea was known for her cunning nature and mastery of dark magic.
Tozo, also known as Orcus, was a young blue demon who wore a necklace around his neck. He was sixteen years old, which was considered youthful even for a demon. Unlike Asmodea, who was confident and sure of herself, Tozo was shy and lacked self-assurance.
As Tozo struggled to express himself, Asmodea continued to tease him, enjoying his discomfort. Despite her teasing, she was intrigued by Tozo's desire to be powerful. Perhaps, she thought, he could be of use to her in the future.
"I'm- *giggle* I'm sorry... Just, you just don't hear that very often. Hey! C'mon, you don't really want to be like me, do you? I mean, I understand wanting to know some magic in this dangerous world, but magic of that weird kind? Just what are you thinking?" Asmodea couldn't help but giggle at Orcus's statement, finding it amusing that someone would want to be like her.
After she finished laughing, she responded to Orcus's desire to learn magic. She expressed her concern about the type of magic he wanted to learn, saying that it was weird and not commonly used.
Asmodea acknowledged that knowing magic was important in a dangerous world, but she couldn't understand why Orcus would want to learn that particular type of magic.
"I can learn what magic I want! I'm not good with swords like you are, nor can I go on very long with such heavy armour like you can... I tried shooting a bow before, and I almost hit grandfather in the eye. He said I have good aim, but not at the correct target. So my only hope lies with magic," Orcus explained his reasoning behind wanting to learn magic, citing his lack of skill with swords and inability to wear heavy armor for extended periods.
He recounted an incident where he tried to shoot a bow but ended up almost hitting his grandfather in the eye.
Orcus realized that his only hope to become powerful lay in learning magic, and he expressed this while gazing up at the sky and admiring its unique cloud formations.
Asmodea listened to Orcus's explanation and realized that he was serious about wanting to learn magic. She decided to help him by teaching him the basics of magic and showing him how to channel his inner power.
Asmodea cautioned Orcus that learning magic was not an easy task and that it would take years of practice to master, but she was willing to help him along the way.
