I didn’t understand what was happening, but we only had a few minutes, I used a telepathy technique to talk to everyone at the same time, staying organized would be the main thing as we left the Dimensional Dragon.
But as soon as we left the entire universe changed, suddenly I was no longer in the vacuum of space between the stars, but in endless halls of mirrors in all directions.
"Where am I... what is...?" (I)
"So you are the possessor of Chaos... I don’t see anything wrong..."
A voice sounds from all directions, several figures move through the mirrors, always in difficult spots for me to see, I also can’t use my Aura as I normally would.
"Who are you!?" (I)
"I am nobody and at the same time I am many..."
"That’s great, another one who likes to talk... Kuhh!!" (I)
I felt his presence, but I was already too close to dodge correctly and that’s why I see part of my arm flying away.
When I looked at where the attack came from there was nothing left, but it is undeniable that I saw an arm holding a glass sword coming out of the mirror next to me.
I looked around and there are mirrors in every direction, clearly I am in an advantageous field for the enemy.
"(What if I destroy the mirrors?)" (I)
The various corridors and the small room where I was were strangely shaped, as were the mirrors that made up the entire structure, it looked like someone went to a broken mirror disposal field and used the fragments to build this damn place.
Some mirrors decreased the reflection while others increased the reflection, there were also those that changed the shapes of the reflection to become flat, wide, contorted and in strange shapes.
Some of these mirrors even showed reflections of previous evolutions to my current one, like when I was a Goblin, when I was a Vampire for the first time or even when I was a Leech.
There were even mirrors that show my appearance from the previous life when I was still Human, everything was mixed and fragmented everywhere in a confusing way.
The worst part of this damn place was that my Aura and senses are also reflected by the mirrors, meaning that the more I expand my field of perception, the greater the confusion in my mind will be and that’s why I had to limit my field of perception to a few meters away around me.
"Come on Chaos user, show me what makes you so interesting?"
"Where are you? If you don’t talk I’ll... wait!" (I)
I was ready to launch an area attack as he didn’t show himself and I could feel bursts of murderous intent from different directions, he was clearly provoking me and I wasn’t going to fall that easily.
When I was Human I created many games and for that I needed to be aware of the trends in society that are constantly changing, because of this I had a varied knowledge of films, animations and comics as well as games from my competitors.
That’s why I realized 2 things, the first was that my enemy’s strength is unknown, the second thing is that he is trying to provoke and instigate me to attack.
"< Water Magic: Water Arrow >×30" (I)
"I knew..." (I)
Looking around at the mirrors an idea occurred to me, I used a beginner level magic with little power against the varied mirrors and as I feared, all the arrows were reflected and some changed shape depending on the mirror it hit, some arrows multiplied, some arrows decreased in size and others became larger.
"(I can’t attack carelessly... but I need to test.)" (I)
In a few seconds I tested Magic, Spiritual Runes and Ki Techniques of all elements, always using the weakest, but all attacks were reflected.
Then I tried more unique attacks like using blood magic, Holy Power, curses, Demonic Power and the Essences.
They were all reflected by taking the Essence, so I already knew what I could use against this enemy, even so I would be careful knowing that this might not be the whole truth.
"Since you want to play, let’s play properly." (I)
"< Holy Summon: Sword... >" (I)
Before I finished summoning the Star Sword through which I could better direct the power of the Essences, I was suddenly sucked into the mirror I was standing on without being able to fly, before I knew it I was in a large room of mirrors with someone in front of me.
"It looks like playtime is over, so let’s celebrate your arrival in style!"
"..." (I)
------------------
Pov Magnus:
As soon as we left the Dimensional Dragon ready to fight something happened, my Father disappeared and there was no trace of how it happened, I tried to find his whereabouts by expanding my Aura and I realized that the others were doing the same.
"Where’s that idiot?" (Natasha)
"I can’t feel him." (Vanessa)
"I can’t trace his blood, something is wrong." (Elizabeth)
"I can’t feel where he went, but he seems to be fine." (Nix)
"I tried to share our senses, but there is something resisting and interrupting our connection." (Ragnar)
"Master...master...where...?" (Hinata)
"Calm down Hinata, this is not the time... HINATA!!" (Sakura)
"Where is the master!!" (Hinata)
Everyone was confused, I didn’t need to say anything since everyone was trying to contact my Father, but for even his Family members to have difficulty with this made everyone worried.
Hinata looked especially strange, her expressionless face suddenly changed with faint traces of anger as her body was torn from the inside causing strange fragmented claws to come out across the space in front of her.
Suddenly it was as if something broke without making a sound, then a blurred image of a fragmented structure appeared and Hinata squirming as if she had been crushed passes through this opening that disappeared without a trace.
"Hinata, what did you do?" (Alice)
"But what was that?" (I)
"I can’t talk to her anymore either, she must be in the same place as the master." (Orion)
"We have more immediate concerns, they have arrived!" (Silvia)
With Silvia’s warning, she and Nix remained in our Dragon form while my Father’s other Familiars assumed their true forms, even Natasha transformed into a Dragon, leaving only Xagar in his humanoid form.
The things that were coming towards us were shapeless masses trying to imitate creatures, but they were not like the disgusting flesh creatures that the Apostles of Truth created, they were more bizarre and monstrous as if they were wrong to exist.
"Use Holy power to protect your bodies!! Don’t let the Fallen touch you without Holy power coursing through your bodies!!!" (Zaya)
"They have no weaknesses and need to be sealed or completely annihilated or they will continue attacking!" (Zaya)
Suddenly someone spoke louder than everyone, giving very precise instructions, but seeing that it was Zaya, everyone believed her, as a Lady of the Grave who belongs to this place, she must know these monsters better than all of us.
"(Use seals with Holy Power, try not to waste your powers eliminating them.)" (Caitlyn)
With the enemies so close, there was no more time to talk or plan, everyone was heading into combat as a voice appeared in my head and possibly everyone else’s mind telling me what we should do.
"How am I supposed to seal these things?" (I)
Unlike the others, I don’t specialize in magic and everything I know about sealing something was learned recently.
I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m someone who is purely violent, my focus has always been on how to destroy enemies in an unstoppable way.
"Lets test." (I)
"< Breath of Chaos >" (I)
I start with a breath attack, but to my surprise the enemy contorts his body into the shape of a person or at least imitating a Human.
He tried to attack me, his arms turn into scythes and the surface of his body is a hard yet flexible armor.
I hold one of the scythes from behind as he approaches, but as soon as I did that the scythe changed shape as did his entire body trying to swallow me like a slime.
"< Space Magic: Exchange of Destinies >" (Nicole)
Suddenly I feel my vision change and I see myself standing in front of an energy cube with pieces of metal at the ends, inside there was something that looks like a mixture of a Fish and an Insect no smaller than me in the form of a Dragon.
"Be careful, these things do not have a fixed shape and change in unforeseen ways, their bodies are resilient and do not appear to be made of flesh." (Nicole)
"Use this to seal them." (Nicole)
Nicole doesn’t even wait for me to say anything, I could just hear her speaking in a monotone before taking a bracelet off her arm and throwing it to me, the bracelet changes size, getting bigger as it attaches to my finger like a ring.
"..." (I)
Before I can say anything she disappears and a Golem in the same shape appears in her place, but without asking anything a flow of information came from the ring straight to my mind explaining how to use it.
"She never listens to anyone, but I appreciate the help." (I)
