Luke landed in front of Kalahad with a smile on his face for the first time in battle.
"Why are you so excited?" The demon asked Luke, confused.
However, the half-wolf wasn't even listening to the Kalahad's voice. In Luke's mind, the goal of killing that demon was the only goal he needed to focus on. Every movement in his field of vision was processed in his brain as a crucial variable that could affect the end result.
In a state between full awareness and focus, Luke used <Eye of Horus> to see the various futures of the battle. He entered the Dimension of Horus and found Kalahad immobile there, in the same position he was in the real world.
'First, I have to think about what the possibilities are for Kalahad's controlling power. As he is the Bishop's master, his powers are clearly stronger, but what are the limits to that?' It was the first thing Luke Lange thought.
This was a valid question, because if the devil had omnipotence with his words, it would make him practically invincible.
'He doesn't seem to want to enjoy a battle, but he's clearly arrogant. Someone strong enough to be seen as a God by people, how far do the powers of this thing extend? I would like to have the Scale here with me.'
Although Gene's Skill <Eye of Horus> was inside the half-wolf's mind, he couldn't converse with the Scale that was in his soul for some reason.
"To really get started, I'm going to exponentiate my ways of thinking." Luke said aloud and stretched out his hands in front of him.
Hundreds of Luke's appeared in the small space of the common room that was inside the Dimension of Horus. Soon after, a proportionate amount of Kalahad's appeared as well.
The half-wolf decided not to include Hazor and Meredith in his battle predictions because he saw them as good supporters who generally didn't interfere at inopportune moments. He trusted them, so he thought that even if the two of them chose to interfere, there would be a good reason for doing so. Also, Luke didn't have enough time to pass on a specific strategy to the two of them on the battlefield.
For just over an hour in the Dimension of Horus, Luke Lange used all of his experience to find a way to successfully counter the power of the Kalahad. It certainly wasn't easy and hundreds of half-wolf clones died in the process, while less than a dozen Kalahad's were seriously injured. In these simulations, Luke learned movement patterns from the Tenth Servant that he himself hadn't noticed, but that were stored between the lines of the Dimension of Horus during their brief battle.
Despite being a three-on-one fight, the advantage was with Kalahad. He had enhanced physical strength, cursed word, and also the fact that his name was unknown, so even if he lost, he wouldn't die. This was making Luke a little worried, after all, why would Hazor ask Luke to kill the demon if he didn't even know its name?
The results at the end of the <Eye of Horus> simulation were open. It would all depend on how Luke Lange reacted to Kalahad's choices and how he could stop him from doing whatever he wanted.
As soon as Luke deactivated the legendary gene ability, the fog from the Dimension of Horus that enveloped the battlefield dissipated.
At this moment, Kalahad noticed the half-wolf's expression change through his eyes. Before, Luke's eyes were focused only on the enemy, however, now they were focused on the entire environment, which made the demon feel the strange sensation of nervousness, or rather, fear.
'Who does this guy think he is? Just because the First Servant hates him, is he thinking the badass? I will teach him a lesson.' Kalahad thought.
The half-wolf started running towards the demon in the next instant, as fast as he could.
Kalahad raised his right hand and red smoke rose, as well as murderous intent in the room. "Before I twisted just one of your arms, what will you do if I twist all your limbs?"
"Luke, watch out for that!" Meredith screamed, startled.
The reality is that Luke Lange already knew the demon would try something like this the moment he ran towards him. This happened in one hundred and fifty of the three hundred simulations, meaning there was a fifty percent chance that he would react this way, while the other ways were less than five percent. The eye of Horus could see this because Luke knew that Demons were proud and didn't like to be faced head-on, without fear.
To counter this cursed word, Luke leapt into the air and used <Vind> backwards, hurling himself at Kalahad. The two suddenly collided, giving no chance for the demon who was surprised to use his powers.
From this moment on, Luke couldn't go wrong if he wanted to gain the upper hand in battle. He used the fact that the demon was already on the ground to press it with an immobilization, like a snake Luke wrapped itself around Kalahad's back and used Ornament of the Sea to strengthen his muscles.
The demon was confused as to how to react to this, he was about to explode in rage. The fact that the half-wolf was trying to immobilize him was the biggest insult Kalahad had ever received in his entire existence.
Luke used his arms to lock the demon's shoulders, and when his hands found the back of the demon's neck, he brought them together to press the opponent's head down. The half-wolf's legs passed over either side of Kalahad's abdomen and down to the demon's legs, locking them in place.
Thanks to the anger he was feeling, Kalahad only noticed the half-wolf's intentions when he felt his limbs completely locked.
'But what!? As!? That's not possible!' The demon thought in despair.
As Luke had already achieved his first objective, he immediately started on the second. Luke began to force the demon's limbs backwards to the extreme. Due to the stiffness of the bones, Kalahad's armor quickly began to crack as his joints were pushed to the extreme by a mere half-beast.
