3rd Pov:
Seated on top of a cliffs edge with one of his legs swinging back and forth of the ledge is Xicor with a new mask that has black markings all over it and a black cloak that covers his entire body.
"They should be arriving soon, if I remember their patrol patterns but that doesn't work then I can just send out a signal for them to find" Xicor muttered to himself before the sound a vehicle driving closer and closer to him.
"Right on cue" He said as he grinned behind his mask.
Spotting the vehicle down below, it has 3 demon defence force members, the 2nd unit chief being one of them.
Xicor thought back to why Shikoku wanted to him to kill the unit chief, 'if you start killing them, it'll divert their attention away from exploring Mato more as well as keep us hidden for now'
Xicor stood up from his seated position and point his palm at vehicle before firing a fireball at it. The ball of fire travelled fast but the chief reacted immediately as she grabbed both of her members and leap out the car before it was lit in flames and exploded that pushed them back.
All three got into a fighting position before a silhouette started making its way through the flames to reveal Xicor to them.
The chief immediately recognised him due to the flame abilities he'd shown as a grin was plastered on her face, "so you're here for round 2 aye, well I ain't going down so easily now since I've been doing some special training"
She immediately dash forward with greater speed than last time as she appeared in front of Xicor in mere moments before thrusting a fist forward.
It was about to connect but one of Xicor's hands shot up and caught her wrist before he used his other hand to fire a burst of flames as it launched her back.
The chief used her feet and hands to stop herself from hitting wall behind her. The other members of her unit immediately went in to fight as one of them pulled a sword out of the space behind her and the other grew wings behind her as well as develop talons before she flew into the sky.
Xicor moved his hand to make a sign before he said out-loud, ignoring their presence's entirely, "Ryu"
Ryu shot out from his hand and grew massively behind charging into the girl with wings. The girl with sword blitzed behind Xicor and attempted to slice his head off but the blade was caught and yanked forward where the girl was next to Xicor before she was kneed in the stomach.
Xicor grabbed her by the hair and threw her up where the girl with wings caught her, Ryu was about bite down on them but Xicor clapped his hands as he appeared where Ryu was and launch a drop kick on them, sending them crashing at a wall.
The chief appeared behind Xicor and was about to blast him with both hands but Ryu rammed into her and sent her crashing into the side of a cliff. Xicor dropped to ground as he watch the smoke and dust, from the woman, slowly disperse.
'Should I allow them to call back up?' Xicor thought to himself, 'yeah, maybe I should since the templates would going up faster and with the amount of cursed energy I have as well as control, I can go on for hours if I'm not careless with it'
The chief shot out the side of the cliff as her leg, which was covered in fire, came dropping down on him. Xicor raised his arm up to block but the chief pointed her palm at him before flames shot out and the leg connected with his arm.
The flames caused Xicor to instinctively close his eyes which gave the girl with wings the opportunity to grab his ankle and throw him into side of the cliff where the chief crashed into.
Clapping his hands together Xicor fired a piercing blood that narrowly missed the girl with wings but it made her go into the path of Ryu, who was about to ram into her before he was swapped with Xicor who grabbed the girls face and immediately set her a blaze.
The girls screams echoed in everyone's ears, to the chief and the swordswoman it was shocking as well as horrific but for Xicor, it was music to him.
Hearing the agonising voice of people who tormented his brother was joyful to him as Ryu circled high above, waiting for its master to give him a silent command.
Soon her body turned nothing but ash as it drifted away by the winds, scattering her spirit away from the battlefield.
'One down, two to go' Xicor counted, like he was playing a game.
Xicor landed down on the ground before he immediately dashed forward, leaving behind a cloud of dust as well as cracked rock.
The swordswoman instinctively lifted her sword up to guard as a fist crashed against the blade as both of them dragged themselves against the ground before their hands became blurs the swordswoman was forced to defend against Xicor's unrelenting barrage of punches and kicks, each precise and refined.
The chief attempt to go and help her member but she was forced to twist her body and cross her arms as Ryu rammed into her. Gritting her teeth, the chief released a torrent of flames that pushed Ryu back before disappearing and driving her foot into the side of Ryu's head and sending him crashing into a wall as debris fell on him.
Xicor continued his assault on the swordswoman before the woman grasp the air in front of her and pull, Xicor immediately jumped to the side as a blade shot out of the ground and almost impale him.
The sword retreated back into the ground as the swordswoman chased after him. Xicor smirked as he clapped his hands as Ryu appeared ramming almost immediately into the swordswoman, who had no time to block nor dodge as she was flung away.
Xicor stood on top of a boulder, watching Ryu cause chaos against the swordswoman, who appears to be struggling against the Chinese dragon.
Xicor raised his arm without looking as a flaming leg made contact with his forearm before a barrage of fist came flying at him.
Each fist was defected and blocked before they began to exchange blows. They leaped from different places, each one trying to out pace the other in any way possible.
Xicor caught both of her wrists before kneeing her in the chin in a second of being caught, her vision turned white for a moment before she saw Xicor clapping his hands together as the chief prepared to block Ryu's attack but there was no Ryu and in his place was a falls rock.
Before she could process what happened a heavy impact crashed against her back, next her arm was grabbed and her body was spun a few times before she was sent crashing into a wall.
As Xicor stared at where the chief was sent into, the swordswoman came bouncing off the ground next to Xicor and land in front of him with her back to her chief.
The swordswoman staggered up by using her blade as a support, looking up at the unknown person in front of her, she can make out gleaming red eye from the eye sockets as Ryu's massive form looms behind him like dog waiting for its own to click its fingers.
She straightened up but she almost fell back by managed to stabilise herself by her chief helping her as she stepped with notable scratches and burn marks.
'We need to hold her off until the others arrive' the chief thought as flames ignited on her hands.
The stand off was tense and silent but Xicor wasn't looking at them, he was checking his progress like gamer who was grinding for hours, curious to know their progress.

'I'm close, I just need to keep swapping with Ryu and rocks I infuse with cursed energy' Xicor thought as the system went away.
Without a second thought, Xicor blitzed forward and planted his palm against the swordswoman, she coughed out saliva before a gush of air propelled her back into the wall.
The chief reacted immediate as she coated her hands in fire and thrusted it towards Xicor's mask. Xicor titled his head back as the flaming fist went past his head by an inch of contact before he flicked a piece of rock behind the chief and clap his hands.
The chief reacted instinctively by sending a kick backwards but Xicor shifted his body to the side and dodged it before he grabbed the woman's red hair and yank it back before driving his fist into her face and into the ground.
He was about set her a flames before turned around a caught a blade between his palms. The own of the blade was the swordswoman, she gritted her teeth as she grabbed the space behind her and threw it forward as two swords appeared beside her face and thrusted forward but they never reached Xicor as he blurred away and appear a few feet away in his fighting stance.
She was about to confront him again but he clapped his hands and was replaced by Ryu who hovered in front of her not making a move.
Xicor crashed behind but she couldn't react instinctively time before Xicor kicked her in the back that propelled her towards Ryu as he clamped his jaws around her and began to devour her, her screams were muffled but the chief regain concussions at the wrong time as it was too late to save her.
'Two down, one to go' Xicor thought again before he glance at his system

His eyes widened at what he got as a massive grin was plastered over his mouth behind his mask but his visible shaking body reveals his joy.
But before he could revel in his joy more, a pillar of fire shot up to the sky, bringing him back to the fight in front of him.
Ryu immediately flew over to the pillar as it dispersed before a flaming arrow shot plunged itself into the dragon. Ryu let out a scream of pain before a trail of fire flew above him and blast him down with fire.
'Oh, it appears she's transformed' Xicor thought as he analysed the chiefs new form. Her hair was waving through the air more brighter than before, she has flaming wings behind her as well as flames talons with flames claws and a halo made of flames.
'I should report this to Shikoku once I'm done' he nodded to himself as the chiefs new form immediately made her way over to Xicor as he brought his arms to up to defend his face as her fist came crashing against him.
Xicor grunted against the force as was skidded back with steam flowing off his forearm. The chief didn't let him catch his breath as she appeared behind him and fire flames that covered his form.
His hand shot out of the flames and grabbed her by the face before he smashed her head against the ground and drag her across it before she slapped him with her wings, that hit the same as her regular punches, that forced him to loosen his grip and made her take the opportunity to get out of his grip and blast a large fire ball at him that sent him away before he threw the fireball aside.
The chief appeared in front of him again and was about to thrust her fist into his stomach before he moved to side and strike the chief with ratio that propelled her into a wall.
Ryu shot out of the debris before flying his way over his master at a fast pace but his masters words stop him, 'slow the humans down for as long as possible, I want to test something against her'
With the order given, Ryu roared up at the sky and changed its course for the demon defence force members coming to aid the 2nd units chief.
The chief landed down not to far from Xicor as she was breathing heavily, "sent your pet away so we can fight one of one more better, how kind of you" she yelled out with a grin.
Xicor didn't say anything, he merely brought his hand to chest level with one hand into a palm facing up and with his free hand, press his index and middle finger in the centre of his palm before uttering words that changed the world around them.
