Bastard!!

Dark Schneider faces his hardest challenge since being revived: Ninja Master Gara. Weilding the powerful sword, Murasame, Gara seems to have an advantage. But Dark Schneider is now in possession of the legendary Fire Sword. A duel to the death is about to begin, with a chained-up and very unhappy Yoko as the prize.

Dark Schneider leaves on a small bit of personal business with another of the Four Lords Of Havoc. The only problem, he didn't tell anyone where he was going. Yoko and three Holy Swords (virtuous female paladins) of Meta-Rikana set out to find him. The only question is, can they survive an encounter with the immortal vampire King Di-Amon long enough for Dark Schneider to save them.

Thunder Empress Arshes Nei (female half-elf, Lord Of Havoc, and Dark Schneider's ex-lover) is out to destroy him for good. Dark Schneider will not only have to decide between his ex-lover and his new girlfriend. He also has to make a choice. Which one of them shall die?

Two Lords Of Havoc remain: Kall-Su and Abigail. And they are the strongest of the four. Dark Schneider must face off against the remaining Lords Of Havoc, an unbeatable cyclops formed from the flesh of the God of Destruction itself, and Yoko's feminine fury (which may very well be what scares him the most). However, there's just one small inconvenience. Dark Schneider just died.
