The Death Knight dropped Mei as a response to Heath's kick and fell to a knee. His concentration on Mei effectively broken.

!! Cutscene !!Heath followed up his kick with an uppercut which surprisingly launched the Death Knight into the air. Heath shot a glance to Mei, who knew that this was the time to do an all-out attack. She briefly extended her wings and flew forward, kicking up dust and colliding with the Death Knight mid-air, a halo of fire from the impact as the Death Knight went flying backwards through the wall of the corridor.

Mei landed next to Heath, the two exchanged a look and began their all out attack. When the Death Knight emerged from the debris, Heath used his excellent speed to get below the Death Knight and perform a strong high kick to again launch him into the air, which Mei took advantage of and took to the air. She flew in front of the Death Knight, "This is for Jin, you asshole!" She exclaimed as she grabbed him and spun around towards the ground, in a fiery drill as flames engulfed them both. Mei pulled out at the last second as the Death Knight slammed into the ground.

The Death Knight though, being the absolute unit he is, got up as if nothing had happened and when they began their attack once more, their attacks were intercepted. Heath's punch was caught and he was thrown aside at the same time, Mei was grabbed by the neck and slammed to the ground, "Not yet." He said simply. With that, a portal of dark mist opened and he vanished inside it and closed it.

Mei groaned as she lay in the ground.

!! END COMBAT !!

[Battle ended!]
[Results: Success?]

The king crouched beside Mei as she groaned in pain.

"Mei," he said, his voice low and deep as always. "You have fought well. My deepest gratitude goes to you. Be still, for now. The Medical Senshi will be here to assist you soon. Domori as well."

Heath offered Mei a small smile, and then stood back up. But as he looked around, his expression quickly faded.

Spoiler: Heath's Theme

With the menacing Death Knight finally gone, the invasion seemed to come to an abrupt end. The demonic creatures that had been summoned by his dark powers were either slain or frantically fleeing through portals, leaving behind a scene of destruction and devastation. The once grand throne room of Heath now resembled a gruesome battlefield, strewn with the lifeless bodies of his own men, those of Kumii's army, and the twisted forms of undead soldiers. The pungent stench of death hung heavily in the air, making every breath feel like a struggle. The once magnificent ceiling was now reduced to rubble, shattered pieces of stone and debris scattered haphazardly across the floor. However, only one thing remained least untouched.

The throne.

With a slow pace, Heath walked up the stairs toward his seat, pushing past the injured men and deceased. Every step he took made a sloshing noise as he stepped in blood. He passed Miyahira on the way.

"Heath!" she weakly said, clutching her arm. "My king, we've..."

The king ignored her, and as Miyahira realized this, she gave up. Pushing onward would be futile. Regardless of his quietness, even a mad man could sense his anger. So, she watched him continue his ascent.

Once he was at the top, Heath took his seat on his throne with solemn and gazed upon the destruction once more.

"This was needed." he thought, clasping his hands together between his legs and leaning forward. "I was contemplating whether or not we were prepared to push forward with my goals. With expanding my empire. With conquering Ironshire. But..."

The king's eyes zipped toward each of his Royal Guards. They were all injured, all exhausted. They had all been pushed to their limit, and by what? Some undead scum? Even their strongest, Kaminari, was hurt, being helped to his feet by Aizawa. The only person he could give some credit to was Domori. He'd gone head-to-head with the Death Knight himself. The others, however, were outmatched by minions.

Heath let out a frustrated sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Absolutely not...we would have been slaughtered."

And so, the king sat there for the remainder of everything. Ashamed of the fragility of his empire.
