Pov Niryna:
When I threw myself towards the Gray Elf woman, I felt something piercing my chest, when I looked it was one of the blades she carried on her back, but strangely I didn’t feel the same fear I felt when I died.
"(Do now as I taught.)" (Mother)
"< Territory: Anomalous >" (me)
"< Infernal Dimension >" (me)
I try to do as I was taught using my Aura as a base to create a limit of effect, so I created a sphere of Aura with me and the Elf inside, then with the power they call Divinity I create infernal flames that take us through space in a strange and somehow comfortable place.
It only took one look to recognize this place, the mountains that emerged from the ground breaking entire buildings, the bridge that crossed the river was now made of bones being a combo difference that I remember, but the stench of blood in the air seemed more ferrous and sweet than I remembered.
The sky on the other hand was dark orange, I had never seen this color before, in place of the Sun or the Moon, there were two eyes in the sky, one on each side and sending a more reddish light from one while the other had a more purple light.
The clouds in the sky seemed alive and varied from red to black, the few plants around looked like they were dead even though they moved sometimes.
"What is this? Where are we?" (Sarin)
"Ouch ouch ouch ouch... that hurts!" (me)
I pull out the blade that still pierces my chest, it was a blade a little smaller than a sword and without a handle, it seemed slightly curved and emanated a strange energy, as soon as it left my chest it floated back to the Gray Elf.
"To answer your question, I have no idea." (me)
"There are many things I don’t understand and this place is one of them, but would it be like my Territory?" (me)
"(Why are you wasting your time with her, just start fighting before Zenos finishes off that weakling!)" (Mother)
I really didn’t want to fight, I never liked combat and even less killing, even though I had done a lot of it in the past.
I had really been spending a lot of my time since I was born in this universe following Callidora’s wishes, she insists that I should call her mother and as the days went by it became a habit.
I didn’t go against the things my supposed mother wanted, since it matched everything I wanted to experience, be it food, books, music or training my own power.
There are many things I had in mind after I was ’born’ and among those things Zenos was at the center of everything, but I was never able to fully open up to him out of fear.
This place still catches my attention, it has several characteristics of Earth and at the same time it looks like the hell I went to after death.
"You’re an enemy, so I guess I don’t need to consider much." (me)

Pov Zenos:
The God of Law’s gaze only lasted a fraction of a second, but other than a bit of intimidation it did nothing more, he was busy with Hernoth and had no way to intervene now.
All his gaze did was give this Living Tribunal an opportunity to attack, a chance he took advantage of when his sword took one of my eyes, trying to pierce my head before I punched him back, resuming our battle.
This entire room seems to be filled with a strange energy, I feel like I’m constantly swimming at the bottom of an ocean that tries to contain my movements and restrict me, my every movement is heavy, becoming rigid with effort, but this only strengthens my will with anger.
My sword cuts towards him once more, his damned Runes flash between silver and gold as the swords collide, but I don’t even take a step back, my tail advances trying to pierce him from the side, then a barrier appears, stopping the advance of the blade on my tail.
"< 1000 Slashes of the Star Demon >" (me)
"< Divine Judgment: Condemnation >"
I strike with my sword, this time using my superior brute strength to push him to the limit and with a flap of my wings giving him greater momentum, I throw him away giving him space to launch an attack.
Raising my sword I streak through space opening a rift to the stars within my Territory, thousands of stars shine through this rift and being commanded by my sword, each of these stars becomes a flying blade, a red slash that when clustered together leaving the rift takes the form of a Demon spreading its wings as if its mere presence would cut even the stars.
The Blade Demon advances towards the enemy, but at that moment the Runes gush from the book in his hands like an erupting volcano.
The Runes merge into a bloodstained axe that descends against the Blade Demon.
When the two collide, the entire room trembles, a shockwave makes even the space itself vibrate, trying to throw me back, but instead I force an advance against the enemy who was already being thrown back.
"< Curse of the Eclipse: Anomalous Desecration >" (me)
I gather my power in the sword and forcefully throw it at the enemy, he moved his sword to try to deflect my sword, but as if it were alive, my sword deflects only grazing his sword before colliding with the book of laws, piercing through until the tip of the sword penetrates the enemy’s stomach.
"< Divine Judgment: Eternal Law >"
Suddenly the entire book shines, shattering my sword, whose fragments fly towards me before reforming once more into a sword.
The glow in the book intensifies more and more as the sword is sucked into the book that closes, on its cover the Rune that represents the word ’Law’ takes the shape of a sword with a crown on top where the Rune of Law is engraved on the blade of the sword.
"< Divine Judgement: Eternal Condemnation >"
The book suddenly falls apart with all the pages separating before coming together in the shape of a sword made of all the silver pages of the book, the cover that was left behind holds the bottom of the hiltless blade that falls towards me.
I feel the space around me freeze as if trying to lock me in my position, but I just smile at that, I don’t even try to lift my sword, just put one of my hands forward.
The sword indicates falls towards me, it seems slow, but at the same time fast in its execution, but its presence trembles when the Runes that form the pages begin to burn with Star Fire, soon these flames emerge from each rune and from the gaps between the pages, the entire sword seemed to burn with the pages turning to ash.
The Runes engraved on the page were left behind as even the cover of the book fell apart, soon the sword descending towards me became a Starfire Dragon covered in silver Runes that slowly changed to red, on its head the symbol of a sword with a crown also slowly changed to red as if stained by blood.
The Dragon did not attack me, it circled around me before wrapping itself around my arm then I turned my eyes to the enemy who declared himself as the Living Tribunal.
He was in a state of disarray, his robes were covered in blood, a pair of horns tore through his head from the inside as they grew outwards, his eye was now completely black as if filled with darkness, points of red, gold and purple light appearing like stars among the darkness.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!!!"
"AAAHHHH!!!"
"IT SHOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE FOR ME TO FEEL PAIN!!!!"
"Everyone feels pain you idiot, you being a Divine Weapon Spirit doesn’t make you immune to it." (me)
"About what I did is simple, I’m corrupting you." (me)
"It would be hard for me to destroy you, possible... but still hard and there would still be a risk of you escaping." (me)
"You know, your God of Law really pissed me off this time, so I thought about the best way to humiliate him, guess what I chose to do?" (me)
"You... you... AAAHHH!!!!"
As he screamed his body changed, his head held in place as it changed into that of a Dragon with only one eye, those eyes were open revealing endless stars while an image of an Eclipse flashed inside it trying to come into existence as if fighting against something.
Cough Cough
"He realized... well..." (me)
"< Unholy Awakening >" (me)
I stab his chest with my arm where the Starfire Dragon had already finished refining all the Runes as well as the Divinity contained in both the book and the sword.
The Dragon sinks into his body before I remove my hand, Anomalous energy surging from me before invading his body as I remove my arm, his body trembling continuously as the Eclipse in his eye fully forms.
"I think it’s time for me to have my own Laws!" (me)
