The Reaper King was three newly destroyed buildings away from the cathedral Constantine Rebellion was in when the A-Rank reached him. The once decorated streets filled with happy travelers and tourists, were now filled and cluttered with building debris, blood and splattered human remains. It was truly a gruesome site and the Reaper King was pleased. The mage in front of the Reaper King was obviously afraid, he hadn't seen this type of violence before, in all his years of work no one has ever done anything like this. This level of unneeded slaughter was unheard of. Against his fears he began to speak.
"I am Greyfiend of Blue Pegasus, I cannot forgive crimes of this level. I will def-" The Reaper King interrupted him. "No you won't. You know you won't, I'm something the likes of which you've never faced human, the likes of which you've never even imagined. I am only the beginning, soon the the skies will blacken, the ground will crack and quake, the streets and rivers shall both be red with blood and all of your souls will belong to my master! Do not speak to me with your lies of defeat, weak wretched human!"The Reaper Kings forcipules began to drip with his deadly venom as he spoke the words that would nurtured the fear in Greyfiend's heart.
When the Reaper King was done speaking he immediately began charging at Greyfiend who assumed the body of a rock golem to defend himself. He was safe from the poison while in this form, but not safe from the force of The Reaper King's mandibles he began to crush the takeover mages body and the rock began to crumple. The mage countered by turning by assuming the tail of a giant scorpion and attacking The Reaper King who was forced to throw the mage, he landed over twenty feet away and slid along the groun. He quickly regained his footing and changed his body back to normal other than his legs which assumed the form of a jackrabbit and he launched himself into the air re-assuming his rock golem form and falling down toward The Reaper King in a deadly descent the energy around The Reaper King grew much greater in visibility as his exoskeleton began to glow with dark power. The impact of Greyfiend was completely negated.
The Reaper King was having fun but knew not to toy with actual threats and moved to end the fight. He lunged at Greyfiend who was now open after his fall from the sky. "You'll now know the "Unending Hunger" of The Reaper King!" The Reaper King's mandibles glowed with power just as his exoskeleton finished, Greyfiend had no chance to get away so he just blocked while in his rock golem form, assured that it'd protect him long enough for him to get out of it... it didn't. The Reaper King's mandibles sliced clean through and through the takeover mages torso. The magic faded away and his body fell down to the ground. The Reaper King was just about to eat him but thought of a better idea quickly. After eating the legs of the deceased mage he picked up his upper body with his mandibles and carried him back to the destroyed fountain in town square. He used the blood dripping from his mandibles to write out "We Know" in front of the fountain then dropped the body of the Blue Pegasus mage in front of the words. The words meant nothing... but no one else knew that, combined with the destruction of the town the message he left was sure to induce a panic in Savage Skulls pursuers. The job was over The Reaper King called out to Constantine that it was time to go back.
