Chapter 1342 Cap 1340: Priority target
?I couldn't understand why I'm the only one who has so much bad luck, the enemies just don't stop coming, it's been 4 days and several Lords of the Abyss have already come against me to the point where I wouldn't have time to rest, if it weren't for my power of chaos To be able to convert their power into something I can absorb to recover my own energy, I would have fallen a long time ago.
The forest I had created before has now expanded to 122 kilometers, far above the initial 5 kilometers, I can't say whether this is caused by the indirect effect of my Divine Weapon or because of the large amount of energy absorbed by the enemies' consumption until now.
The forest also changed, silver lines spread throughout the forest in the wood of the trees adding illusion effects, unfortunately, whether it is illusion, mental effects, confusing the senses or even hiding the presence, none of this is of any use against these damn things.
It seems that both the Creatures of the Abyss and the Lords of the Abyss are capable of tracking people through all possible means to evade their attentions, I don't know so far how they do this and none of them seem willing to respond.
"For the love of the Gods, why do they keep coming? I haven't even finished reattaching my arm!"?(I)
"I can take care of them if you want."?(Nix)
"Where are the others?"?(I)
"Mostly occupied, Orion is recovering at camp, most of the blood that makes up his body has been annihilated, so he is receiving treatment from Vanessa."?(Nix)
"Then take care of the one coming from the right, I'll take care of the other two and when you're done come help me."?(I)
As soon as I gave my orders I flapped my wings heading towards the enemies, inside this forest I could feel them like a stain on a clean surface, their existences are like stains of nothing in the universe.
By doubling the space in this forest I was able to reach my destination in seconds, facing the two Lords of the Abyss running towards me.
One of them was an imitation Dragon with a Bug carapace instead of swords while the other was a giant with arms that opened like a flower full of teeth, its face was just a big gray eye and its body was creating tree bark like armor.
"(They are both very strong and have clearly adapted to have strong defense, what do I do?)" (I)
I've faced many of these Lords of the Abyss and one thing I noticed was noticing their adaptation path to know how to attack them, the battles always had to be intense and short, it had to end before they adapted completely, forcing me to change my tactics, which happens more than half the time.
"(I can't be careless.)" (I)
"< Divine Incarnation: 34% >" (I)
My Sacred Power, Aura, and Authority changed as the Divine Spark ignited making my entire body change with a fundamental power to read everything that I am.
"< Limitless Realm >" (I)
Using the power of the elements of space, wind, thunder and light together with the Divine Spark within me a power explodes within me, the speed of movement and my perception increase exponentially, in this explosion of speed my claws shine, in what was only 1 second of time I had already crossed to the other side of the 2 Lords of the Abyss, their bodies marked by hundreds of Spiritual Runes each.
"< Curse of Chaos Flame >" (I)
Soon their bodies began to burn in Starfire, even though they didn't scream as expected, they rushed towards me, their giant bodies seeming to be unharmed as they continued trying to attack me.
The high speed from before is something that exceeds the limits of my body even when using Divine Incarnation, that's because I'm moving forcing my body beyond all my limits, it's not the type of technique I can use consecutively.
I needed something at that level to be able to surpass the regeneration of their bodies or the Runes I cut into their flesh would have disappeared before I finished them all.
The rest of the time was spent with me deflecting their blows as much as possible while their bodies were consumed by Starfire, it took several minutes for me to finally see there was nothing left of them.
When Nix came to me as agreed I noticed that there was another Lord of the Abyss behind her, I also noticed Nix's Wounds, she was injured in several places, one of her eyes was cut, her scales were broken as well as several of her bones were broken, using our connection I could feel his injuries, his Dragon form was far from the glamor it once had.
One of my arms was still very injured, but I still flapped my wings, flying towards her.
"< Eclipse Dragon Thrust >" (I)
I use a skill propelling my body even faster while carrying energy past Nix before colliding into the enemy causing both of us to go backwards creating a Rio Space between us.
"Master, be careful with him, his power is…" (Nix)
"< Dimensional Separation >" (I)
I noticed him moving and acted in the same second, already greased with spatial magic, separating the space in two, when he appeared, his arm crossed the space of magic, but even so, I gained enough time to move away with Nix.
I picked her up and used a magical item that broke around the two of us, taking us back to where the control center is.
"Father!!"?(Irina)
"Take care of Nix, call Nicole!"?(I)
Just as I said, she appeared next to me, but it was just a holographic image, one of her Golems was nearby looking at me.
"You know?"?(I)
"[I saw, you have faced almost the same number of Abyss Lords as the Lesser Gods, but while they are looking for them to destroy, you are clearly being targeted.]" (Nicole)
"But why am I being targeted?"(I)
"[I have no idea.]" (Nicole)
"..." (I)
"How long will this last?"(I)
----------------
20 days later.
In the end, I myself didn't know what had happened when I opened my eyes inside the Dimensional Dragon, the first thing I did was look at my chest, and my last memory was using my Divine Weapon to destroy 3 Abyss Lords while 5 others killed me and a Lesser God who was fighting alongside me.
I don't even remember how it happened, I just remember the image of an arm across my chest before a severe headache, and then everything went black.
"How did I get here? How long have I been out?"(I)
"You've been sleeping for 6 days, I brought you here."(Elizabeth)
"I thought I had... died."(I)
"I don't blame you, that was exactly the kind of thinking the Gods wanted, but no one died in that war."(Elizabeth)
"From the beginning, this was to train you and show you how terrifying the Creatures of the Abyss are, they don't feel pain, they don't feel fear, they don't feel tired and they never stop attacking."(Elizabeth)
"How are the others?"(I)
"Sleeping just like you until recently, they died a few hours after you, only the minor Gods and a few Demigods remained after the control point fell, so it was only a matter of time before they all died."(Elizabeth)
"What happened to the Divine Realm and the rift?"(I)
"Even without you, the Divine Kingdom remained, your Territory assimilated into the Divine Kingdom remained, in the end, most of the rift was already closed, the Gods could have ended a long time ago."(Elizabeth)
"They wanted everyone to experience death."(I)
"Yes, but now it's all over and we can go back to what we were doing."(Elizabeth)
"I think I need some more sleep."(I)
"Rest as much as you want." (Elizabeth)
It seems like a lot of things happened during my sleep, but I don't have time to think about it now, I put my hand on my chest trying to feel the Blood Core where the egg was still sleeping, it seems like nothing has changed.
I realize that my Divine Weapons were stronger, it was something I didn't stop to think about with so many fights going on all the time
I didn't expect that even death would be just another part of the training, but it seems that everyone did well, unfortunately, I haven't received munpayment from the God of Beasts yet, but fortunately, I don't need to worry, sooner or later I will receive what I deserve.
----------------
Pov Goddess Selene:
"I think everyone did well."(I)
"Some did well, most had horrible synchronization at the beginning, everyone was fighting individually away from each other."(Hatlas)
"You're being too demanding, they'll never reach your standards, they were better than I expected."(I)
"Whatever we need now are..." (I)
"Stop all this nonsense, if we're done with that then I have somewhere else to go."(Aine)
"(Kalistos and Mavis left without anyone seeing, they were hiding somewhere.)" (I)
"What you said caught my attention..." (I)
So many things happened here just as we predicted, but now there was nothing left, the Arena continent was a mess, but in my head, other things were falling apart.
"(Zenos was more focused than I expected, are they being cautious with the power of chaos?)" (I)
"(He has become a priority target, let's hope he can grow up faster.)" (I)
