Chapter 35
Summary
Zeppeli, having been cut in half, is slowly dying. After transferring his ripple energy to Johnathan, he begins to age and his hair turns white. Tarkus jumps into the air and attempts to crush both Jonathan and Zeppeli, but Jonathan grabs hold of his side of the chain and stops Tarkus from falling. Tarkus is confused as to why Jonathan is still able to move after breaking his neck. Jonathan, using his newfound power, is able to tear the collar from his neck, along with the rest of his shirt.
Tarkus throws a punch, but Jonathan blocks it with a knife hand strike. The chain in tarkus' hand manages to graze Jonathan's face. Jonathan continues with his knife hand and pushes it further into Tarkus' fist and completely slices through his arm. Tarkus' arm is completely destroyed due to the ripple, causing him to scream out in pain. Jonathan tells Tarkus that "Not a single bone will remain in this world. I'm gonna erase that evil spirit from this world!" Tarkus immediately fires out his two front fangs and manages to impale them into Jonathan's face. Regardless, Jonathan launches forward and the two each throw out a punch at each other. Jonathan's fists manages to connect with Tarkus'face, sending a ripple throughout Tarkus' body. Tarkus is defeated; Jonathan throws the body into the air where he disintegrates completely, only leaving his armor behind.
After telling Jonathan that he had been like a son and best friend all in one to him, Zeppeli passes away.
