NOVPUBPov Alice’s:
I was looking at the Church of Light troops, they were spreading everywhere, but the defense in each planet’s orbit was strong, ironically it was the tree that was least protected.
"Did you warn them?" (Nicole)
"Yes, I’m sure Zenos heard and Hades replied that the Gods are starting to retreat when they are at a disadvantage." (I)
"The usual, but they are not withdrawing the troops." (Nicole)
"Yes, that is strange..." (I)
Nicole was next to me, there was a space fox next to us as well as a Dryad following Sakura.
Around us it was possible to see Nicole’s holographic screens revealing the situation throughout the Star System, the movement of the troops was easily identifiable.
"I’ll buy some time." (I)
"Thank you, Irius is on his way as well as Silvia, I’m still warning the others." (Nicole)
"I can only hold one side." (I)
"Then go to point A03. It will be the first contact and it should only be troops with numbers." (Nicole)
With that I advanced alone while Nicole gave instructions to the other two Sacred Beasts.
I arrived a little below a large tree where their Ethereal Roots spread to other Planets, the Ki of this place is very strong, but it is difficult to use magic.
"(It seems that I will have to fight this time.)" (I)
While thinking this I looked in a direction, now that the White Fire had been scattered and was no longer a threat, it was easy to see that white light coming, their arrogant Auras are always the same as if they were the correct ones in any conflict they entered.
I take a deep breath, letting the blood flow throughout my body. The Sacred Power then joins my body. An incredible sensation passes through every corner of my body My senses become so strong that I can smell the blood for almost 1/3 of the entire Star System My Aura becomes more liquid with a red glow Of course, it is not corporeal, being something ethereal, but it is a clear representation of how much the power of the Blood has increased for me.
"I think I can let myself go more..." (I)
"AAAHHHHH!!" (I)
The Sacred Power would not be enough. I could feel the Sacred Power marking each of the countless Auras coming in this direction They were even ignoring the attacks being suffered from behind or from the side to focus here, their numbers being in the thousands.
I simply touch the Divine, making the power of Zenos within me awaken, becoming a source of Divine Power.
"< May the power of the Eclipse bleed for me >" (I)
With this power within me, I join my hands and pray with my eyes closed, this Divine Power that was previously imprinted on me began to circulate through my blood, I felt my blood become heavier and more condensed, I also felt as if countless bloodlines came to life and acted as one as they ran through my entire body.
My Blood Core merged with my heart, 3 pairs of wings burst from my back, they were made of fresh blood taking the form of wings while still flowing in and out of my body.
In my head the symbol of an Eclipse appears with a crystallized drop of blood emitting light in the middle.
My Aura now became corporeal flowing around me remaking my clothes into something easier to move, my claws grew as if there were swords attached to each finger, my eyes as well as my senses could distinguish blood, vitality is even the Soul of all living creatures.
Looking at the approaching army I could barely contact the bloodthirsty desire inside me, the desire to make the blood flow bathing everything in the most beautiful red, but I needed a calm mind, acting purely on instinct was a stupid way to seek one’s own death.
"(This really is incredible!)" (I)
Every part of my body screamed with euphoria, such an incredible and wild power was making my body overflow with total euphoria, I had never felt so powerful, never felt so alive.
"[ALICE!!!]" (Nicole)
"..." (I)
"[Don’t get carried away, they’re already too close.]" (Nicole)
I look at the enemies, for a second I had forgotten about them, but with Nicole’s warning I was able to focus my mind once again and with a thrust of my wings I advanced in a storm of blood towards them.
As I moved, blood particles evaporated from my body, creating clouds of blood that gathered into a wall of clouds moving like an unrestrained storm.
They tried to stop me with attacks using swords and magic This was not an offensive technique, it was just a release of blood that I controlled to create a convenient field to fight in.
My wings moved differently than normal wings They were not moving based on the wind or space They moved through the pure Vital energy that permeates the entire universe In this place blessed by Ki, my movements became even faster, since Ki is strongly related to living creatures.
With a flap of my wings, I was already in their midst. My claws moved, tearing hundreds to pieces while the blood from their bodies was drained, making visibility within the storm of blood more difficult.
Some of them were able to perceive me, but the vast majority were empty shells that were simply squeezed dry of all the blood It didn’t take long for me to notice the difference between those who died and those who were able to at least show some resistance.
Almost all of those who were dying with each blow were the Disposable Soldiers who had been victims of the Church of Light’s forced transformation They were dying by the hundreds with each attack of mine I felt sorry for them, but I wouldn’t go easy on them because of that since they were still enemies.
"< Holy Summon: Scorching Sun >"
Suddenly a strong light illuminated within the storm of blood, the particles and drops of blood evaporated into nothing The storm was dissolving, so there was no point in keeping things like this.
I undid the barrier, revealing a miniature Sun flying between two basic circles with 10 High Priests around each magic circle.
That Sun emitted a strong light that seemed to try to burn me, but Zenos’ Divine Power was protecting me.
Looking around, the enemies were everywhere, there were many and I could see more of them coming, this time it was really a full attack.
"(It’s going to be difficult...)" (I)
------------------
Pov Lilith’s:
"I feel horrible..." (I)
"Of course, they ripped off your head and pierced your heart." (Irina)
"Yes, that might be part of the problem." (I)
"But at least I managed to find the location." (I)
"Do you need more blood?" (Irina)
"No, you gave me too much, do you have any idea how hard it is to digest our Father’s blood." (I)
As I spoke I could feel the bones in my spine and neck moving, the holes and tears in my heart were also healing, fortunately they didn’t notice my Demonic Blood Core.
"They’re nearby, a Separate Space." (I)
"We can take care of that later, we have an attack to face now." (Irina)
I let myself be hit by the enemies to track their Revenge, I know best what it’s like to be forced to become something you’re not, they may have lost, their minds and emotions, even their Souls may have suffered, but the revenge they desired cannot be erased.
"How do you feel?" (Irina)
"Better, I think..." (I)
As I spoke to her all my injuries were healed, so she took me to the bed-shaped Barrier she created and looked around.
We were already getting close to the tree and it was possible to see several in the middle of fighting against many enemies.
I looked at their position and felt their Auras, I am very sensitive to the Auras of others and it was more than easy to read the Auras of this army.
"Irina, we need to run... they’re going to...!" (I)
"..." (I)
"But what is this?" (Irina)
Suddenly a large Sun appeared, streams of light energy gathered from each of the enemies, the entire army near the Tree fell unconscious, some of them even exploded with large clusters of light coming out of the remains of their bodies towards this Sun.
"Nicole!? Nicole, can you hear me!!??" (Irina)
"She can’t hear you the Divine presence emanating from this Sun blocks..." (I)
"..." (Irina)
While we were looking for what to do, space shattered as a large hand grabbed the Sun that was still expanding. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
From that hand an image of a Purple Sun emerged, sucking large amounts of Divine Power from that Sun.
Soon it began to slowly diminish as its power was sucked away, then the head of a large Dragon appeared, it was the Father in his Dragon form, his Presence a symbol of his identity.
Along with my Father came something tied around his body, at first I thought it was a Serpent of Light, but then I realized it was a large luminous chain that was burning his body.
He was clearly in pain, but even so he continued to let these chains hurt him until he finished off the Sun, which was much more dangerous for all of us.
But it was at that moment that he was pulled into the crack he had passed through, but by then the Sun was half the size, so she arrived, crossing the crack that Zenos created, Sakura acted quickly, making the roots of the large tree appear and just like my bread did, she was absorbing the power of the sun with the tree.
