"I swear vengeance on you, Lucas, and I will show my true face: one of pure evil!" Mr. Vacio still continued.

"I will take responsibility for this.." Lucas vocalized to his team, blocking their ways. "Get Doll back, leave this forest safe and sound!"

The group seemed to be refusing, especially Doll, who seemed guilty of what happened. "It is all our problem," Doll spoke. "because we are all friends."

"No!" Lucas insisted.

Lucas' act caused discord to erupt between Doll and Moon, with the two disagreeing on whether to let Lucas on his reckless action. "We should battle him together!" Doll retorted.

"No, you should be given to your father!" Moon discussed.

Eventually, Doll bowed her head, and decided to walk away, following Lucas' plan and leave Mr. Vacio to him.

Moon, Ghaile, and Winter followed, with Winter looking back to gaze if anything was under Lucas' control.

Meanwhile, Lucas made the first contact with Mr. Vacio's puppetry, charging straight through them with an intention to make Mr. Vacio fight himself. He took out a huge number of made-up puppets, using fire for both offense and defense as the puppet fire back with beams.

Initially being overwhelmed by their relentless attacks, Lucas quickly responded to those in kind with his magic, wiping out almost hundreds of puppet in an instant. Ultimately, Mr. Vacio stopped his rampage, and faced Lucas, much to the boy's excitement.

"I thought it would take more time to make you fight, Vacio.." Lucas pointed out and stopped his a.s.saults, standing on his ground.

"Well, I always wanted you to fight me for real, even this first time.." Mr. Vacio replied in contempt.

Lucas got ready, removing the bandages all over his body. Mr. Vacio noticed an immense amount of magic power, as well as heat, coming from him.

Lucas smirked as he charged Mr. Vacio, delivering a devastating punch enhanced by his determination and flames that sends Vacio cras.h.i.+ng through a nearby tree.

However, Mr. Vacio jumped out and shot his powerful blast of magic towards Lucas, which Lucas incinerates, much to his shock.

Making the use of his speed, Lucas instantly appeared in front of Vacio and before he can react, he took yet another attack from Lucas: an attack that kept growing in power, as the entire forest fell to Lucas' flames.

Lucas continued to barrage Mr. Vacio with a number of attacks. In spite of this, Mr. Vacio smiled and launched a counterattack that gashed Lucas' face. Undeterred, Lucas kept clas.h.i.+ng with his foe; Mr. Vacio backed away for the moment.

"Your newfound power was nice, I wondered where it came from..." Mr. Vacio commented on Lucas' strength.

Lucas panted in response, saying, "I learned it from 'a friend,' a manifestation of the Strongest Flames that was inside me." Lucas explained.

It took his whole month of staying at White Day High for him to be able to properly use it. Mr. Vacio seemed surprised.

"Once after I use this Remnant Magic, it will never regenerate back.." Lucas further explained while panting.

He tapped into this power and surprised Mr. Vacio, that was watching as even the ground begins burning.

"I am going to end this fight.." Lucas exclaimed.

Unbeknownst to the two, ArmorBoy was watching from the Sky Prison in surprise. His worried expression soon changed to a smile as Lucas fell on his knees —exhausted.

Lucas severely panted "I am alright.." he claimed to himself. "I can still attack once. I can still defeat you.." he ended while panting.

The dust cleared out, revealing the figure of a now-heavily-injured Vacio, giving Lucas the strength to smile.

"Please lend me 'your' power..." Lucas whispered, "for one more blow.."

Mr. Vacio smiled, and stated that, "You've attained such immense power.." he whispered in a smile. "I always hoped that you would stop me.."

Lucas planned to blow his last retort, standing from his fall.

"But I thought it was too late.. Blaze Harper.." Mr. Vacio continued. "Because I have decided to destroy the White Day instead..."

Seeing Lucas' current strength, Mr. Vacio began to hope that Lucas would be able to stop him, so he decided to reveal something important.

"You are Blaze Harper from the past.." This greatly shocked Lucas.

"600 years ago, everyone that survived the Neo Belleza were revived without memory of what happened.." Mr. Vacio continued. "And everyone who died before it was activated managed to live with memories of the past.."

"You are Blaze Harper, a Fire Supreme Wizard.. resurrected as Lucas Martin.."

Lucas refused to accept this. "I heard that name from a book at Aspho, that wasn't even true!" he claimed.

"Those books.. were your lives.." Mr. Vacio revealed. "Lives of the people who remained alive after Neo Belleza.."

Summoning the very book, Mr. Vacio shot through it, causing Lucas immense pain. That move proved their link and proving Vacio's story.

Lucas was left shocked, searing with immense pain —Mr. Vacio's story was proven factual.
