Peace Treaty Signing!

(After the incident has been cleared by the Royal Knights, the convicted Aoki whom was being awaited his punishment by the royal family as Reika, Vuella and Arthur stood on the sides to witness the next course of action as Arthur was the most disappointed and did not intend to look at Aoki for one second as the silence was finally broken.)
"Ophiel: Toshiharu Aoki!"
"Aoki: ...."

"Ophiel: Disrespecting a member to the royal family, threatened a high-class royal knight and violated six regulations of the Royal Capital's code... The evidence for we've seen ourselves proves you are guilty. Any foreigner that violated these codes would've been imprisoned or sent out of the Royal Capital indefinitely! But since you are one of the Royal Knights, us and our daughter Roselyn has agreed to place you under a probation watch."

"Venali: A Probation Watch states that you must have an active guard watching your every move day in and day out until the end of the clause. And since we've agreed to it, your probation guard is none other than Arthur."
"Roselyn: The peace treaty signing is tomorrow, Sir Toshiharu. Another stunt like this earlier will result to expulsion from the knights and removal of the capital."
"Aoki: W-Wait..! But what about them..?!"
"Ophiel: Lady Reika and Lady Vuella are goddesses and are our superiors, they are more than welcome to remain here as long as they wish. While under capital law Aoki, you are permitted to leave the Royal Capital if this stunt is pulled again during the peace treaty signing. Do I make myself clear, Toshiharu?"
"Aoki: ... Yes your majesty."
"Venali: Along with your probation, you're temporarily restricted from accepting any commissions among the Adventurer's Guild, that's all."
(As the royal family departed from their thrones with disappointment for Aoki, Aoki then walks towards his room without saying a word to Vuella, Reika or Arthur for he was too disappointed in himself to even talk to them.)
"Reika: I hope this human doesn't ruin anything."
"Arthur: Oh don't worry, you may be watching him Reika but he's my responsibility. If anything happens, I'll have to put him down."
"Reika: That job.. is meant for me."
"Arthur: You?"
"Reika: This is something only Vuella knows and not the royal family or you. But... After I've found out about Aoki's curse, I only told Vuella and we both agreed that if Aoki could not control Banri, I'd be the one to put him down. After all, he survived death from me twice."
"Arthur: ... I have no doubt in your abilities and power, Lady Reika. But if it comes to when we have to fight together to put him down, don't get mad at me."
"Reika: I don't think that'll happen. What's needed to be done will be done."

(As Aoki overheard everything, he then goes back to his assigned room and does not leave for the rest of the day. As the following day has arrived, the Royal Capital was under the highest level of security in years as the capital's main square was surrounded with high-class Royal Knights along with assigned seating for the kings, queens, princess and princesses of all the nine remaining nations.)

"Roselyn: Today is the day little brother!"
"Fenius: It is! I can't wait to see our old friends again!"
"Roselyn: Remember to make a good first impression, okay? Its been a very long time since we've even got to see the other nations."
"Ophiel: Roselyn!"
(As Roselyn's mother was then approaching them, she was finished counting every Royal Knight attended and placed in their positions.)
"Roselyn: Yes mother?"
"Ophiel: Is there any sign of Sir Toshiharu?"
"Roselyn: Come to think of it, I haven't really seen him."
"Fenius: I believe Arthur is watching him still. From what I heard, Aoki hasn't left his room since yesterday after the lecturing from you and father."
"Ophiel: Hm... Roselyn, would you mind checking on Arthur and Aoki to make sure its true?"
"Roselyn: Of course!"
(As she then goes inside the capital to find Arthur whom was leaning on the wall next to Aoki's room who has not came out yet.)
"Arthur: Princess Roselyn, how's your morning so far?"
"Roselyn: Pretty good! Is Aoki in there?"
"Arthur: Yup, poor guy hasn't left his room since yesterday. I don't know what he's doing in there but apparently its something important maybe."
(Inside Aoki's room, Aoki would appear lying in a pool of his own blood as his own chest was slit open by Banri whom is keeping his presence alive regardless of Aoki's death as Aoki's conscience was inside his head speaking with Banri who has clouded it with evil thoughts.)

-Inside Aoki's Brain-

"Banri: So this is what you intended to do? You trigger me, come into your own head and try to fight me face to face in combat, knowing you'll lose anyway?"
"Aoki: Well duh! Its your fault I'm put on probation!!"
"Banri: There's no evidence to prove that... You accuse me of such a folly with no conclusive evidence? That's not very "knightly" of you, Toshiharu."
"Aoki: SHUT UP!!"
(As Aoki leaped from the surface floor and attacks Banri, Banri quickly appeared on the other side of the cerebellum as Aoki was continuously pissed off and continues to fight Banri who was dodges his attacks on purpose to mess with Aoki.)
"Banri: Is this all you got, punk ass? I should just take over your body at this point!"
"Aoki: LIKE HELL YOU WILL!"
(Banri then swings a powerful back hand which spins Aoki's head into a 360 and causes him to fall over as Banri then repositions it back into place then forces his heart to beat again with an echoing punch to the chest.)
"AGH..!!"
"Banri: Do you now understand?"
(Banri then kicks Aoki down and begins stomping on his defenseless body.)
"The reason I pick on you, the reason they pick on you, THE REASON EVERYONE PICK ON YOU.. Is because you're nothing but a weak, fragile human from planet Earth which is gone... And you're doomed with me until I get my revenge on those who killed me before!"
(Aoki gripped Banri's ankle as he started to get back to his feet.)
"Aoki: Then... Help me.. get stronger..."
"Banri: I already gifted you my power and your body isn't enough to rival Lord Arthur or anyone in the Nation of Magic, so why waste my precious time helping you instead of torturing you?"
(Banri gives Aoki a menacing stare with an evil smirk as he awaited an answer.)
"Aoki: Because... I need to help people.. and I can't do that.. if I am.. weak..!"
(Banri then kicks Aoki across his brain then stomps on his back as Aoki was in pain.)

"Banri: You're weak because you don't give it your all in a fight which makes it perfectly easy for you to be considered pray. Without me, you'd be nothing but a B-Ranked threat, nothing but fresh meat for the higher ranks in the adventurer guild!"
"Aoki: That's.. not true.."
(Banri then kicks his side then stomps on Aoki's head which began angering him.)
"Banri: Then prove me wrong if you can.. If you can't get my foot off of your head in the next five seconds, I will squish it like a grape and take over this body as my own. Five..."
(As Banri purposely continued to add pressure onto his leg and force the gravity to increase, Aoki desperately tries to escape while beginning to generate an unknown aura from stress and anxiety along with the fear of his body being taken.)
"Four..."
(Banri then forces the pressure even more as Aoki continued to generate more stress.)
"Three..."
"Aoki: AAAAGGGGGAAHHHH!!!!!"
"Banri: This is so tedious... Two."
(As Banri's leg was now charging negative energy for the final stomp, Aoki began bleeding from his ears, nose and eyes as Banri then lifts his leg up which gives Aoki the advantage and throw a powerful right hook which created a burst of wind and launched Banri only several inches across his brain. Banri began to laugh for Aoki proved him wrong.)
"At last, finally took your death seriously and gave me one of your strong punches. I'll give your body back to you, but unless you want me to torture your scrawny ass more, you will take fights seriously or I will kill you again and again until you don't want to exist anymore!"
"Aoki: F-Fine..!"
"Banri: Good, now get out my sight."
(As Banri then slashes Aoki's conscience in half, the real Aoki awakens from the floor and looks in the mirror to see his chest's cut is completely gone as he remembered everything while being terrified, including every word that Banri told him.)

-Now-

(Aoki then hears a knock on the door which frightens him.)
"Aoki: C-Come in..!"
(The door opens and reveals to be Roselyn who wanted to talk to him as Arthur was still leaning on the wall still, minding his business.)
"Roselyn: Hey Aoki...?"
"Aoki: Oh... Princess. Can I help with anything?"
"Roselyn: Well, I wanted to talk with you about a few things before you leave your room."
"Aoki: Well, what is it?"
"Roselyn: One, its about the other nine regions."
(Roselyn sat down on a chair to Aoki's desk as she told him what she knows.)
"Now, Aoki. As you know, you've started out in this world in Khotgow City, the Neutral Zone of this country. However, surrounding it are ten nations, every nation is connected to Khotgow City. Our neighboring regions if you remember is the Region of Elements and the Region of Spirits; and then we have the seven remaining nations."
"Aoki: What are the remaining seven?"
"Roselyn: The other seven nations are the Nation of Sand, the Nation of Ninjutsu, the Nation of Combat Arts, Wisdom, Air and the Nation of Deities."
"Aoki: Nation of Deities?"
"Roselyn: As this country has an alliance deal with gods, the nine nations in return has agreed to create a nation for deities and gods alone. Henceforth, the Nation of Deities is born."
"Aoki: I heard about some Realm of Deities, now a nation?"
"Roselyn: Its a codename for Olympus, where all the gods truly hail from."
"Aoki: Olympus?!"
"Roselyn: Shhh...! Don't tell anyone I told you that, its a major secret from everyone else..."
"Aoki: Oh.. Okay..."
(Roselyn then stood up and looked out the window as Aoki was curious on what she would say then notices his neck glowing as his hair quickly changed to cosmic as Banri was taking over to murder Roselyn who continued to look out the window and talk to Aoki.)

"Roselyn: Aoki. To be honest, do you know how much you mean to me? You, Vuella and Reika. Ever since I met you three, I felt more like any average girl instead of some princess. You guys are my friends... But if you were thrown out of the capital, I'd honestly be upset. Very... upset. Do you understand how close you are to me?"

(The second she turns around, Aoki was normal as he heard everything.)
"Aoki: ...R-Roselyn..."
(She then walked towards Aoki and stares into his eyes as Aoki didn't know what to do but is nervous at why she's staring at him.)
"Roselyn: Aoki. I'm serious."
(She then held his right hand for it was tense but now calm.)
"Will you please, please control yourself...?"
"Aoki: I can try. I'll try my hardest."
(Roselyn smiled as she then hugged Aoki out of grace and then left the room as Aoki for a moment was frozen to feel the warm presence from Roselyn's hug.)
"Arthur: Is Aoki coming out?"
"Roselyn: Give him some more time, me and him had a little talk."
"Arthur: Understood, see you out there princess."
(As Roselyn giggled and goes back outside, time then passes as all ten nations were present and accounted for as emperors, empresses, kings, queens, princes and princesses all were greeting each other while Venali and Ophiel was reintroduced to old friends.)
"Gayles Kauthon (Emperor Of Elements): Venali! It's been far too long, ole' chum!"
"Venali: Its a blessing to see you again old friend, why I remember in the old days of the academy that you were the top prestigious student!"
"Gayles: Hahaha!!! Good times indeed!"
(As Gayles and Venali caught up, Ophiel was speaking with Eterne, the Empress of the Spirit Realm as they were gossiping about the other leaders. Meanwhile, Fenius and Roselyn reunited with their old friend group as they all was talking about the different princes and princesses at the peace treaty signing.)
"Elnu Qheecoro (Princess of the Sand Region): My stars, Fenius!! You're even cuter than I remembered you..!"
"Fenius: W-Well.. Uh-... Its b-been a uh..!"
"Elnu: Got something on your shirt there..!"
"Fenius: What is it?"
(As he looked down for one second, Elnu flicked her finger up as she laughed and made Fenius look who was then blushing out of embarrassment.)

"Elnu: Just messing with you sugar!"
(Fenius was then hugged by Elnu as Roselyn and a group of princesses were watching the two.)
"Osami Baipachi (Princess of the Combat Arts Region): Well, your cute little brother is being smothered by Elnu again."
"Roselyn: I know.. After all, its been years since they broke up."
"Osami: It still amazes me how two ex's can actually be good friends again."
"Rinami Fujirachne (Princess of the Wisdom Region): If the bond started with a long connecting friendship, a bond like so is unbreakable."
"Roselyn: Wisely put, Rinami!"
(As the blindfolded Rinami blushed with a smile, the group was then started by a surprised Roselyn to see Reika and Vuella in dresses as almost everyone were surprised to see the two goddesses as every royal family in the kingdom currently bows to them.)
"Vuella: Greetings all!"
"Reika: A pleasure to see all of you again."
"Roselyn: Wow..."
(As everyone continued to remain awestruck, Reika and Vuella was suddenly interrupted by a god who Reika dislikes the most as he approached the two with a sneering smirk.)
"Rothor (God of Balanced Justice): Reika and Vuella! Why you two look more beautiful than the last time we saw each other!"
"Vuella: Shut it Rothor, we're not interested in speaking to you."
"Rothor: But its clearly you're speaking with me now... Do tell me is that not "ironic", my precious Vuella?"
(As she then touched Vuella's chin and forced Vuella to look at him, she was heavily uncomfortable the second he touched her.)
"Vuella: EW! DON'T TOUCH ME YOU PERVERT!"
"Rothor: I've done absolutely no acts of perverseness, all I've done was simply embrace your inner beauty by staring into your wonderous eyes..."
"Reika: Back the hell away from her, Rothor."
"Rothor: Reika my dear, that's no way to talk to your superiors..."
(She then scoffed as she was quickly irritated with him. As Ophiel suddenly noticed, she then summons magic speakers in which she did not need a microphone but connected her voice to every speaker in the Royal Capital.)

"Ophiel: Alright...! Everyone! May I have your attention please?"
(As all the attention was now turned to Venali and Gayles who was then ready to sign the peace treaty between the two nations.)
"As we all know, the Nation of Elements was under a rebellion attack by their own people then storms their way to the Nation of Magic to violate the order of peace. Therefore in order to make sure there are no hatred between the two regions, Emperor Kauthon of the Nation of Elements and my husband, Emperor Musili of the Nation of Magic will both sign this treaty which will disclose the undeniable that both regions are allies, not enemies!"

(As clapping was heard and everyone was in attendance, Arthur was sitting atop the Royal Capital's palace as he witnessed the entire signing. Meanwhile, Aoki was curled into a ball in absolute pain as Banri was violating his own contract with Aoki and was beginning to take over his body. As the peace treaty was signed, Aoki's eyes then snapped opened as they was now bloodshot instead of cosmic colored which triggered Arthur into feeling a very negative presence then quickly runs to Aoki's room, only to find his door completely ripped off the hinges and his room was destroyed as a message was left for Arthur on the wall by Banri.)

"Banri (Note): I'm taking this brat hostage, I'm not letting a chance slide to murder every royal family in one fell swoop!"
"Arthur: ...Aoki...!"
(As every royal family felt a disturbing presence, murmuring was heard as Reika and Vuella had their guards up and were ready to attack just in case. Suddenly at a flash of light, a powerful humanoid crashes onto the stage as Venali and Gayles were pushed back by the strong shockwave which had everyone surprised as Ophiel and Eterne quickly aided the two.)
"Eterne: Are you both alright?!"
"Venali: We're fine... We just can't move as fast as we used too.."
"Emmeline: King Musili! We'll handle the threat!"
(As the high class Royal Knights were ready for combat as they saw the threat which Emmeline suddenly had horrifying memories from one of her adventures while staring down the bloodshot-eyed Aoki but begin to shake in her boots as she was scared.)
"Ophiel: Emmeline..?!"
"Emmeline: No...! NO..! I KILLED YOU..! I BEHEADED YOU, WHY ARE YOU BACK BANRI?!"
"Eterne: BANRI??"
"Reika & Vuella: Banri??"
(As Roselyn was terrified that the worst case scenario has happened, Fenius was scared that Aoki's presence was no longer around as the debris revealed to be the possessed Aoki as Banri has finally taken over his body completely.)
"Banri: Let me make this clear Emmeline, you may have killed me before but its clearly impossible to truly have me dead. Also, I can tell you along with the Musili royal family care about this measly, punk-ass bitch. So here's what's gonna happen..."
(Banri then places his hand down his throat and grips on an item and yanks out a clock out of Aoki's body which had the viewing people curious but scared.)

"Emmeline: What is that...?"
"Banri: Did you forget I'm able to manipulate one's time? This is Aoki's clock and as it counts down every second, it will determine when he dies. Now if I speed the clock's time myself, his death will come quicker than most would expect or if the clock is somewhat destroyed, Aoki will die instantly."
"Roselyn: You wouldn't...!"
"Banri: Oh I would... But who's to say Aoki accidentally dies, because of a CROSSFIRE?"
(Banri smirks deviously as he then fires a large scale attack as it was blocked by a ticked off Reika who took the attack head on but was completely unscathed.)
"Reika: Princess Roselyn and Miss Emmeline, have every region ruler and their children out of the center. I don't want to cause any collateral damage."
(Before Banri could then obliterate the entire capital, his massive attack was then dissolved and erased by an Angelic Arthur revealing his white halo above his head as Reika's eyes were now yellow and black and shows her anger.)
"Banri: For crying out loud... You two always been such a pain in the ass, WHEREEVER WE GO!"
(As Banri then leaps into the skies and slams his fists into the ground, the entire center collapsed as time was stopped for Reika and Arthur as three more Banri's was created and blasts endless rounds of magic beams into their bodies as two each then aimed for both of their heads.)
"All Banri's: NIGHT NIGHT!"
(As the final shot was sounded, time then resumed for the two as Reika and Arthur then faked their deaths only to land a combined attack on Banri which launched him across the center and into a generated wall of magic energy by Arthur who casted a barrier surrounding and shielding the Royal Capital's center in front of the palace and the bystanders.)
"Reika: Its useless thinking I could have faith in a human, my time has been wasted again with him."
"Arthur: If he doesn't snap out of it when we're done with him, I won't stop you if you destroy him like you need too."

(As Reika nodded, her negative energy then forces her current dress to dissolve and instead generate her original attire like the first time she arrived to Earth before its destruction as Banri was then generating twenty percent of his true power while Arthur stood back as support. Reika then takes several steps as the ground surrounding her became engulfed with black and red as Banri storms towards Reika, generates powerful elemental energy into his legs then stomps his right foot into the ground and explodes a volcano around Reika's area of effect which surprised the rest of the royal families watching the fight as Roselyn has faith in Reika.)

"Banri: Its perfectly clear, you're not gonna hold back against me knowing I'm in this punk's body... Good!"
(Banri then ruthlessly attacks Reika as she flawlessly counters Banri's strikes with faster and harder attacks which would separate them momentarily but not stun Banri.)
"Gayles: Banri.. The Magician of Darkness..?"
"Emmeline: Not only was he killed, his death also resulted in a war in the Realm of Deities."
"Elnu: Hold on a moment! So how exactly is he back?"
"Roselyn: Banri is a curse. Curses are a negative spirit that can find hosts and create contracts, but sometimes they could go rouge if their host is weaker than them."
"Eterne: ..."

(As everyone continued to watch the fight, Arthur then tags himself in and kicks Banri in the stomach with enough force to dispel his aura then swings his leg in a circle, slingshots Banri towards the end of the barrier then launches a fast moving beam of light which explodes after the collision. Suddenly, Banri flash steps right behind Arthur and freezes time for Arthur again as Reika's orbs of negative energy were frozen then dissolved as Arthur then slashes upward then continuously slashes across Aoki's body over three hundred times in four seconds as Banri was then harmed then hammered by Arthur's thundering punch to the gut which his entire bicep then forces his armor to crack then shatter as Aoki's body was successfully broken which was Banri's objective. As Arthur then sheathed his sword and Reika keeps her guard up, the fallen Banri begins laughing as everyone was confused on why he's laughing.)

"Arthur: The hell's so funny, bastard?"
"Banri: I stood no chance defeating you two with twenty percent of my power, but along with the fact you didn't hold back means you've knocked this brat unconscious!"
"Arthur: ...The hell are you talking about?"
"Banri: I may be controlling his "body" but I never said anything about controlling his conscience, all the pain you've done to this body was towards Aoki's consciousness! I DIDN'T FEEL A DAMN THING!"

(As Roselyn and the others gasped, Banri continued laughing as Arthur kept a stern yet pissed off expression then watches Banri vanish as Aoki had full control of his body again but could not move a muscle for his bones are shattered after Arthur's powerful punch. As Arthur lowered the barrier, he then carries Aoki's battered and bruised body for he really was unconscious as Roselyn rushed to Arthur and examines Aoki out of worry then hugged him as he was put down but then began to cry tears of heartbreak.)

"Roselyn: ...Y-YOU GAVE ME YOU WORD...! YOU GAVE ME YOUR WORD, AOKI..!!"
"Arthur: Pardon princess..?"
"Roselyn: A-Aoki promised me he would control himself... He gave me his word and let Banri take him over, he broke the promise...!"

(Arthur then turns around in disgrace and walks towards the palace as Venali and Ophiel then concluded the party as every royal family was worried for the Musili family. As Rothor recorded everything, he'd sneakily return to the Realm of Deities to inform the higher gods of what occurred as of today. After a full two months has went by ever since the peace treaty signing, Aoki then reawakens inside a dungeon where he was sleeping ever since but inside a prisoner's cell. As Aoki tries to move, he could not for he was chained down by spatial magic but was then introduced by the dungeon guard who opened Aoki's cell.)

"Dungeon Guard: Toshiharu Aoki?"
"Aoki: W-What is this..?"
(The spatial magic was then dissolved as Aoki was free to go.)
"Dungeon Guard: Come with me please."
(As Aoki did so through a long walk, the dungeon guard then leads Aoki to the throne of Eterne who then walked down her throne towards the scared Aoki as he was a little scared.)
"Eterne: We've never had a proper introduction, I am Eterne, the Empress of Spirits and you Aoki Toshiharu from this day forward, will be living in the Region of Spirits."
"Aoki: ....Wait... HUH?!?!?!?"
