To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 185: Unstoppable Force



Chapter 185: Unstoppable Force

Skadi jumped out from the gate palace. There she found a view of a sea of monster. There are hundreds of them. All of them are moving to one certain point; to a mini bunker ahead. Their target is her party. 

Above the sea of monster, floating the Mother of the Monsters, Echidna. 

Far ahead, two figures were fighting enormously. One used his katana to slash the air, sky and space. One used his thousand swords to launch, explode, and tried to pierce his enemy. 

Skadi must move quickly. She had expected that things would turn out like that. Even though she had not expected that the battle between the Two Sinners would be completely tremendous. At least the two of of the Sinners did not try to bring their fight close to the bunker. 

"Where do you think you're going?!"

Unheil in a speed of lightning charging at Skadi. 

Skadi draw her sword back, then made a strong swing to stop Unheil. 

The clash between the black lightning and black long-sword created a sound that was no less thunderous than the battle of the two Sinners.

Unheil got stopped again by Skadi. But he found a view of his master had opened the gate of sea of monsters. 

"Ooh! She finally made use of those losers!"

"You know something about that sea of monster?"

Unheil is Echidna's General. He is also seen as a man who is very proud of himself and his surrounding things.

Skadi used that to get a piece of information or two.

"Yeah, of course! All of them are the Loser! Or Echidna called them [Lost Ones]! They used to be just useless trash! But Echidna used them all to become the army of monsters that we could command! Not only them, all the incidents involving artificial monsters like in the Land of Honor incident and the Northeast Region as well! They are rubbish that is recycled to be more useful!"

Unheil revealed the facts about the 'sea of monsters' in great detail. However, it was so detailed that it made Skadi's ears disgusted by hearing it.

"But, I can't found that 'fool' anywhere. Does Echidna keep him for later?"

Unheil was curious and asking himself the question. 

From what Skadi could see, the sea of monster only contains intermediate monsters that even can be handled by Gold Hunter.

Even though she believed in Lian's party and Arlene, they definitely couldn't overcome such a large number. So Skadi still had to join them.

However, if there is one more individual as strong as Unheil appeared to fight them, that will be a problem. 

"Who is this fool you are talking about?"

"Just a fool who failed in the two missions given to him."

"Two missions?"

"Yeah. Land of Honor attack and Escorting the Demon Queen vessel."

Two incidents that just happened recently. 

"Well, considering that it was him, being recycled and still being used is already good for hi "

Unheil got shot by a laser. 

The shot just now paralyzed Unheil. That is the chance for Skadi to continue her way. 

~~~~~~~~~~~

Arlene had just fired one powerful shot in the far direction.

"Miss Arlene! We did like to order a help here!"

Meanwhile, Lian and Bradley got overwhelmed by the keep-coming monsters. 

"[Typhoon Art: One-hundred and One Slash]!"

Lian kills a dozen of the monsters and pushed them with his wind move. 

"[Consecutive Lightning Arrows]!"

Bradley keeps firing his lightning arrow to every monster that coming. However, this skill can only last one minute. After that, he needed two minutes to recover his breath.

While Bradley is resting, Lian stands guard with his blade.

In the back circle, there is no problem because not many monster come. The problem is on the front.

"Miss Arlene! I don't know what are you firing just now, but, it should be your turn! [Fire Rain]!"

Xian Ling had just chanted two high arts. That was not good for her body.

"I am sorry! I just gave our companion a favor!"

Arlene took turns with Xian Ling to take care of the keep-coming monsters.

In the front position, Richard and his shield cleared the monsters that had made it past Xian Ling and Arlene's attack.

Out of breath, Xian Ling step back. Sara caught Xian Ling and embrace her friend with her Arts.

"Giving a favor to a companion, but who?" asked Xian Ling to Arlene.

"Of course, to our strongest companion!"

Xian Ling and Sara could no longer remember who their friend that was not there.

Still, in his resting time, Bradley could feel a strong force coming to them.

"Um, Missy! Did you get a glimpse in there of the force coming to us?!"

Bradley couldn't see himself because he still had to use his eyes for the back-line.

Xian Ling also could feel the force that coming to them. A really strong force that breaking through its way on the sea of monster. 

"Xian Ling, what is that?"

Sara doesn't have a strong sensitivity. However, she could see that there were many monster parts flying from within the sea of monsters.

"Oh, my god! How did we forget about her?"

Finally, Xian Ling remembers who that person is.

~

She slashes, punches, and kicking every monster in her way from the sea of monster. 

Above the sea of monster, Echidna could see clearly another monster that made her way to the other side.

"I thought Siegfried was strong enough to hold you."

Skadi, the Silver Sky Staff bearer, is killing every monster that got in her way. No matter how many of them, she managed to cut them apart and came forward.

"But, as a Singularity, I expected a general wouldn't be enough to make you stop."

Skadi just wanted to go to the side of her comrades. But on the road, all the monsters - Echidna's children got in her way. Because of that, she finished them off, and her action made the reduction in the sea of monsters at a significant stage.

Even Lian and Bradley run out of monsters for them to handle.

"So strong."

Xian Ling and Sara could already see Skadi's whereabouts. They watched the scene in awe.

"Xian Ling! Help!"

Richard was overwhelmed because Xian Ling keeps daydreaming.

"U-uh! I am sorry! [Three Pillar of Flame]!"

The number of Echidna's monsters was drastically reduced due to Skadi's arrival.

Due to Skadi's existence, the monsters became focused on her. Because of that, Arlene changed their strategy. She ordered Lian to be in front along with Richard. Bradley's job is to support Skadi. Xian Ling rested to restore her mana.

"However, what's with that sword? Why is it so strong like its user?"

Skadi's black sword without fail killed every monster in front of her. Echidna was puzzled by the sword's existence.

There, Echidna takes control of one monster and made the monster to bite Skadi's sword, then try to hold it. 

In that situation, Skadi unleashed her sword, then hit one monster that came from behind. She also holds one that comes from her left with Silver Sky Staff. After that, she punched the monster that holds her sword until the head got crushed.

Skadi gets her sword back without a problem. She continued to finish off every single monster without stopping.

"What a terrifying physical strength. Like that man."

Skadi's strength indirectly earned praise from her enemies.

"Tell me. How you could live without your Vessel of Soul?"

"Why? Are you going to finish me off in a fraudulent way too?"

Ars's clothes were torn and exposed, his body covered in bandages. The bandage covered a large hole in his chest.

"I would not do such a shameless thing like that. You are my opponent. So you are the only target I have to finish."

"Ohh, that's so kind of you."

Ars said that while striking Yamato with [Red Judgment].

Yamato blocks the attack just by raising his katana above his head.

Once again, Ars's attack didn't have any effect on Yamato.

"Just what are you?! A Katana Superman?!"

If Yamato wore a red and blue superhero outfit with an S on his chest, Ars would immediately believe that Yamato was a superhero and would immediately ask for his signature.

But Yamato is just a shirtless man with a katana. With no Arts nor Skills. All he has only pure physical strength, a tremendous physical strength. 

"Then how about you?"

Yamato's turn to ask a question.

"You have no mana source, the Vessel of Soul. You also don't use the mana from the source that makes you alive. But how can you bring out all that high-powered Arts?"

Ars got beaten up. Out of breath. Tired. So he takes out a sofa and sits. He also takes out a bottle of drink. 

For some reason, Yamato allowed that.

"Woman!"

Ars talking to someone connected in his earphones.

["Is that you, Ars? Have you defeated that monster?"]

Yamato can listen to the conversation of the two of them. But he is just listening. 

"Give her a drink."

["Her? You mean Elisa? Can't you see I'm busy?!"]

"Get. Her. A. Drink."

That was an absolute order. 

["Okay-okay! I got it!"]

They cut off communication. Made Yamato wondering. 

"Who is 'her' you two talking about?"

Yamato could see all the individuals involved in the battle of their factions. But he could not see a single person who could be matched in the context of Ars's conversation just now.

"Geez. You boomer. Always wanted to be involved with the privacy of us youngsters."

Ars get his sofa back and stand up. 

"Now, you curious about where I got all that 'mana' right?"

Ars took out a Sinaga Sword that was covered in tremendous red mana.

"Now, shall us continue this fight?"
