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. Tarukus jumps into the air and attempts to crush both Jonathan and Zeppeli, but Jonathan grabs hold of his side of the chain and stops Tarukus from falling. Tarukus 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.
Tarukus throws a punch, but Jonathan blocks it with a knife hand strike. The chain in Tarukus' hand manages to graze Jonathan's face. Jonathan continues with his knife hand and pushes it further into Tarukus' fist and completely slices through his arm. Tarukus' arm is completely destroyed due to the ripple, causing him to scream out in pain. Jonathan tells Tarukus that "Not a single bone will remain in this world. I'm gonna erase that evil spirit from this world!" Tarukus 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 Tarukus' face, sending a ripple throughout Tarukus' body. Tarukus 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.
