NOVPUBReeva could tell that something was off. The force that was pressing against him now felt more like a push and not a lock like before. Inside the invisible sphere, Reeva could only see black and white, and now the little light that the whole room gives is being blocked by some dark substance.
He didn’t have a clue about what was happening but this was a chance that he had to take. The weakening power couldn’t stop Reeva from advancing, like walking through mud, Reeva used all of his power to dah forward.
Lola’s focus is split in half, between maintaining the barrier and the push on Reeva, but he is not blind. At this rate, he would likely fail the ritual... No, he would not live to see the end of it.
Reeva’s march finally reaches Lola, the boots merchant’s eyes filled with playfulness.
"We have already won, Penu. You can’t stop this from happening."
His mouth curves into a smile like he’s already won. And the circumstances support that. The picture of the void stirs up once more and my hand escapes from it. Dark stretchy hands that have grabbed onto Reeva’s before are now out here again. However this time it was not Reeva that they were grabbing.
It’s the coffin that they are interested in. The hand reaches inside thinking grabbing hold of the corpse that is within. The thing is clearly trying to defend this by using the corpse as a medium.
Reeva puch Lola out of the way, the mystic power that was pushing him down was dispelled. He quickly reaches the picture trying to inject his Mystic force into it.
The yellow mst seeps inside the picture frame and eventually into the picture. He could feel the power spreading through trying to overload the object with another mystic force.
However, Reeva’s eyes widen when his mystic force comes into contact with another one of the void.
"What the hell is this?"
"HAhahaha" Lola laughed as he wiped the colorless blood off his face. "Our god has descended! that thing is no longer a normal artifact, It’s a divine artifact with god intent in it! You can’t destroy it with petty tricks like that anymore."
"....."
Reeva doesn’t give a damn about the gloating Lola is doing. It gives him the information he needs to make a plan. The void being is in the process of descending into the woman’s body, if he could interrupt that process then it would be his win.
His brain works overtime trying to find a solution, trying to think of how to interrupt divine artifacts. The church has one of these in every major city, however not much is known about it other than the fact that the god has blessed the thing with his domain.
To activate it means that they need some sort of sacrifice. And for a god-level being to be descend, it needs a large amount of sacrifice. Even the church paid the price to use the un-god judgment. Then this guy has to do the same.
That’s when it hit him, if the room he was in was being turned into a core of the white demon then this whole facility could be turned into its body. The people in it will automatically become a sacrifice.
He couldn’t stop this.
What can he do?
The picture was right in his hand and he could do nothing about it. The dark hand still spewing out trying to grab the corpse of the woman.
Stuck without a clear option he decides to go with the original plan and pump every bit of mystic force that he has within him. The yellow mist flows constantly through his body into the picture.
His coldness relaxes a little when he expells some power into the picture. His control of his own body Is coming back. His coldness started to get control of his body again then he relied on something when his coldness touched the yellow circle.
A wild idea came to mind as his eyes blurred. He didn’t have time to think this through, the descend could be any moment now and he had to act fast. He uses one of his hands to reach into his body since it’s a physical object His hand gets a bit hurt when his hand digs through his body. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Luckily is was able to wiggle the thing out safely, with blood flowing from his chest. At least none of his organs were badly hurt. His demon body could handle the pain. The object radiated a yellow mist that Reeva ordered to generate. This time it pours out of the thing, trying to take some space.
The invisible barrier fights back, not giving control. Reeva could have let this happen if he didn’t have any other plans. But since he did, he stopped this process. The yellow mist radiates energy and it reads Reeva’s intention.
To bond with an object is to take it as yours. The ritual is simple, you get the object then you draw a circle. After that, it will read your intention, and then the circle will seek such an object and bond with it.
It’s simple if you have the method, but almost impossible by chance. At that exact moment, everything aligned, Reeva’s intent, the circle, and the object needed to seek. The circle spins clockwise generating more and more energy.
The picture resonates with the object slowly dawn on it. The frame bends around the edge the moment the circle is close. The picture in all of its powerfulness wants to defy the circle. The mystic forces inside clash together, beginning another war.
One they had before but one they can’t lose now.
Lola who’s been watching the event happen is filled with surprise and soon he has to act. The god’s voice is faint but he could hear it. From the other side of the picture, it’s asking for his help.
He asks for my help!
Ecstatic was an understatement, in all his years, this is the moment the god want him to help. Then this must have been a grave situation that the god was in. A critical moment where the winner takes all.
Lola focus’s was shifted to Reeva. Now he had to interrupt the boy’s ritual. The barrier weakens threatening to collapse on the guy when he allocate the mystic force to push Reeva.
