It wasn't a tactical retreat. The Inane being had proven to be worthy as a foe. The Judgment he commanded were at his sides and the being was tailing them as they were the ones who covered Cyris' retreat. Alex signaled for them to scatter and he stopped and turned toward the being whom was sprinting down the street without losing a single breath. Alex raised his blade up in a swift slash parting the air with an acute wave of pressure.
But the being didn't try to avoid it, he ran through it without it harming him. The Umbra was raised in the Inane mans hand and collided with Alex's sword. Upon impact Alex felt his strength suddenly start to seep away, that's when the Judgment burst from thin air around the being and thrust their blades into him from all sides. Alex backed away.
The Inane man wasn't dead, instead he suddenly sapped away the life force of the Judgment and continued forward pulling each sword from his body.
"Shit."

Well, whoever that one dude had pissed off certainly pissed him off real badly. Daikus had been watching the event of the man with the Judgment being chased around the city. "Odd..." He was thinking to himself remembering what the Arix of his world had told him about the Judgment. "Oh well, might as well get in there and help..."
===================
A low screeching moan echoed through the area before the air around the assailant was placed under such an intense pressure that a rift had ripped open and a powerful and devastatingly fast slash emerged from it seeking to rip through the man chasing the one he was helping out. Daikus dropped down from the building, pleased with himself that he had finally mastered his uncle Vergil's patented maneuver, the judgment cut. In his hands was a katana, radiating with an ice blue aura around it as pale sparks of energy raced around it before the aura faded, on his back was the broad sword awarded to him as title of his claim to fame in the underworld. He called out the one on the run, as he approached. "Figured you could use some help."

Unphased, the Inane being stepped through the energy eating it up like candy. Alex switched his machete around back handed. He saw from where the new man had came from and nodded to him, "Not much you can help with, it's more like run until he loses interest in following you."
The being burst forward suddenly faster than before. The thing about him was that Alex couldn't feel him like he felt normal people. After watching the display of how he killed the Abyss and Judgment minutes ago he was sure that this was a battle he couldn't win straight on. He would have to improvise.
Alex twisted around and began to run again, straight for a solid brick wall. His foot planted on it and he twisted once again flinging his machete for the Inane man who took the brunt of it to the skull but kept moving forward, "Gotta be kidding me!"

"That's just bullshit right there..." He was of course speaking of the asshole able to take a sword to the face and continue going, but Daikus figured he'd help, pulling Pride from his shoulder holster he aimed the high caliber magnum and let it rip, unloading the gun at the target. The first bullet hit the bottom of his ally's hilt, the other five all connected with one another single file to push the machete in deeper into the assailant's skull. "So who or what the fuck is this guy anyways?

"Don't know." Alex said loudly enough for Daikus to hear him as he ran for the cloaked being and jump kicked him in the chest at the same time he grabbed the hilt of his machete and pulled it free. Alex fell weakened severely from touching the man physically, his breath became heavy and he noticed the lack of blood on his weapon, "What is he?"

"He's a god modding P.O.S. that's what he is." He observed his enemy and something caught him off guard. "How the hell does he have Arix's sword? I thought the keeper broke that shit back at Devil May Cry..." He wasn't talking to anyone in particular, it was time to kick it into overdrive, or at least try to anyways. "Hope this works..." Daikus closed his eyes as well as his opened hand, as his fingers curled into a fist, the moisture in the area made the air cold and frigid. A swipe of his hand and spikes of ice shot out of the ground to pierce the apparition from all angles before Daikus formed a large spike of ice above the creature and dropped it on him. "Maybe?" He said scrunching his shoulders towards his current ally.

The being moved forward into Daikus' attack but the ice couldn't touch him, it lost the means to which held it together as the air itself was sapped of energy, the darkness spread out more heavily weakening his foes now eating off their energy like it was lunch.
"We've got to move. He'll consume us if we don't." Alex stood back up and snapped, the darkness around the Inane being burst and the Judgment assaulted it from every angle possible.

"Gotta agree with that..." He said sheathing his katana like Devil Arm, Espada and holstered his revolver. "I'm kinda new to the area so I'll follow your lead." He said slowly backing away from the onslaught that the judgment were trying to wrought upon the abysmal creature. Something seriously peeked his curiosity though, How are you able to control Judgment like that? I thought the mass of the race only listened to Arix?"

"Hold him off!" Alex turned away and began to sprint away from the battle, "Arix has died long ago. The Judgment are lead by Cyris Darkbroode, and I her right hand. There's a special bond, I was born with an Ajerian soul. Cyris is also an Ajerian. Who are you? How do you even know of Arix's control over the Judgment?"

"That..." He began as they started to sprint away from the battle, "Is a really long fucking story that I'll gladly sum down once we get the hell out of that thing's range." He said following Alex, "But for introduction purposes, My name's Daikus and apparently... by unintentional luck... I'm the new Underworld king. Once again... part of the long story."

"Alex. Keep moving." The Judgment were piling on heavily to the resistance but the being was throwing them aside unscathed by their assaults. It was then that the Abyss moved into the area fighting against the being the Judgment pulled back knowing they no longer needed to hold off the cloaked being.
Alex kept going through, he didn't wish to be hunted so easily.

"Shit," He stated looking over his shoulder to watch the coming abyss try and tackle the guy as well. "Seems like everyone wants a piece of that guy huh?" he kept running to keep pace with Alex, "So, Alex... mind filling me in on whats going on here while we're running?" He kind of wasn't paying attention and a wall was coming up in front of him the last second was a split one and he dodged then used the wall to shoot himself at a faster speed.

"I'd prefer to stop running first. Find a cluttered area for cover." He said moving along.
The Inane being ripped through the Abyss legion with no trouble, he drew their power from them fueling his own dead body and released energy from the Umbra at the hordes. But there was one amongst the horde, General Kasdeya, who threatened him with her power. And while he sucked in the Abyss energies she shattered his rib cage with sheer willpower.

He nodded in agreement before finding an abandoned building with lost of rubble in it. "Over here." He called out to Alex before whipping into the building and looking around, it looked like a bar with a few over turned chairs and tables and some debris on the floor.
The first place Daikus went to was to the smoke machine and kicked the living crap out it until a pack of cigarettes dropped from the machine's mouth, he found the lighter next on top of the bar, packed his cigarettes then opened it and popped one out and lit it up before hopping over the bar to look at what drinks were left intact. "You drink?"

"I prefer not to," Alex said moving a table and a couple machines in front of the door they came in. It was quiet outside now, "What do you want to know?"
Kasdeya walked across the field to the being and touched the top of his cloaked head, she ran her fingers down it feeling the energy from her body begin to be sapped, "Interesting," she said then drove her knee into its face, "Name yourself."
The cold wisp of his voice chilled the air, it was dead from emotion, "Inanis." He stood up and grabbed the sides of her head, she saw what was under the hood, eyeless, white flesh, scarred, burned, noseless, she screamed as all of her energy was drained from her body and her skull began to crack he pulled her face down and his knee up several times, her nose broke, blood hit the floor, her orbital sockets were destroyed, her eyes hung freely. He continued to smash away at her face until nothing was left but a vast empty hole in the succubus' head.
