Will of Сhaos - Chapter 1270: Cap 1268: Eclipse Walker

Pov Caitlyn:

“How are they?” (I)

“As soon as he left, they both fell unconscious.” (Natasha)

“Opening the Gates of Hell should not be possible for them, it needs a Demigod with Authority with Affinities related in some way to Hell or Divine power.” (I)

“Yes, but I felt like they didn’t invoke the Hell Gate, they just opened the Gates creating a way for Zenos to get out.” (Natasha)

“Are you saying the gate appeared here on its own?” (I)

“You don’t understand since you’ve never been there, but Hell isn’t just a place, it’s an entity if I can call that thing, I don’t know how to describe it, it looks like a distorted version of the Mother with Baldr’s arrogance multiplied by 100 and the irresponsibility of the Goddess of Fairies multiplied by 1000.” (Natasha)

“That’s scary…” (I)

“It cannot open the Gates themselves, but it can create and destroy as many as it wants.” (Natasha)

“Zenos certainly interacted with that entity, his Aura carries the presence of Hell, he did something more than he should have done again.” (Natasha)

“He’s an idiot, you can’t talk about him like that when he does the same things, do I need to remember how he died last time?” (I)

“Come on, he was an Evil God with full Divinity, I was lucky to take him with me.” (Natasha)

“You went to fight him on purpose to die, your desire was to be reborn in the body you always wanted, do you think I don’t know about the collection of very specific items that your Maid kept? One of these items was negotiated with me.” (I)

“Look, it looks like he’s arrived.” (Natasha)

“What a sweet way to change the subject.” (I)

“Stop, you two, we have to be careful, the Saint of Life couldn’t kill Greed and he doesn’t usually give up on his goals.” (Elizabeth)

“…” (I)

“I’m too weak after using my Divine Incarnation, one of you will deal with that bastard if you show up.” (Natasha)

“I don’t want.” (I)

I’m not going to waste my effort in a direct fight, it’s already difficult to protect everyone from the mental waves that that thing is emanating.

“(It seems as if thousands of minds are continuously colliding, which should be impossible, they must have done something that I haven’t discovered inside the Planet.)” (I)

I also felt two stronger brain waves, one of them was permeating all the others in a massive way, it was the idiot who turned into this world-devouring monstrosity, I was in his head for a long time, he was just an idiot who was under mental influence for a long time, his mind was so weak that it was laughable without any mental defense.

But this second mental wave is unmistakable, Yntra stopped acting cautiously, I can feel this mental wave around the previous one, it was this bastard who expelled me from his mind, he is also the one who blatantly manipulates him now.

“What is this idiot doing!?” (Elizabeth)

“I don’t know, but I like your boldness.” (Natasha)

“He just needed to use his Holy Power to purify the planet and eliminate that thing’s will.” (Elizabeth)

Even from afar, it was possible to see the areas where the Holy Lands were located glowing, so even the purple ocean was moving in a clearly different pattern as the planet’s shape changes seemed to be slowing down.

“You two didn’t tell him to purify the Planet using his Holy Power, you told him to use the Holy Power against them.” (I)

“The most effective way to use Holy Power in this situation would be a large-scale purification, the foundations for that are already in place, I wouldn’t send him there for any other reason.” (Elizabeth)

“Come to think of it… Does Zenos know any magic or purification techniques?” (Natasha)

“…” (all)

“He seems to be doing something else, the mental waves have become very intense… I feel…” (I)

“< Mirror of Dreams and Nightmares >” (I)

Blood comes out of my hand being controlled by my Aura and I content my Authority which I use to absorb the mental waves that I was blocking until now, with this an image is reflected in the blood mirror.

The image was of a place made entirely of flesh that writhed and pulsed, only two individuals were there, one of them was a grotesque creature being made of flesh and the other was Zenos.

“He was dragged into a mental world… this is clearly a trap, they want to trap his mind to stop whatever he is doing and he fell into this trap.” (I)

“It just shows he was doing something right.” (Natasha)

“You don’t understand, there are millions of enslaved minds and two consciousnesses within these things with one being of the so-called Mother of Truth, meanwhile Zenos only has one consciousness and mind.” (I)

“As long as his consciousness is trapped in this mental world, his body can be attacked in reality, he has to destroy that quickly.” (I)

“You can’t…” (Elizabeth)

“No, from this distance and being kept out by force, consider yourself lucky that I can see what happens there…” (I)

“Wait… his movements are different… his expression is also strange.” (Elizabeth)

“His attack patterns are different and highly focused on Natural Elemental powers.” (Natasha)

“Are you sure this is him? He looks like he’s going to face that blood thing.” (Elizabeth)

“It seems to be a mental Avatar of his, but what I feel coming from him is different, something more primitive and confused, while that thing is bloody, it seems to be a mental Avatar of Yntra.” (I)

As we spoke we were looking in my mirror showing the ever increasing scale struggle between the two individuals and what was happening on the Planet, it appears he is doing both, but clearly, his mental Avatar is possessed by something other than himself.

“(One of his Familiars is a Specter-type… but she seems to be around, so who must it be?)” (I)

Hinata, as well as the other Zenos Family, were still fighting close to us, I could see them from afar and so the doubt only lasted a few seconds before I noticed, along with Elizabeth, who it was, which was confirmed as the minutes of fighting went by when Titans of Nature were formed from the powers of the various Natural Elements.

At the same time, we could all feel the changes in the presence being emanated from the planet, it was when Zenos’ Star Fire set the oceans and his Sacred Lands on fire, this strange Fire seems to be completely under his control as Dragons form destroying the planet in a massive way.

It was a matter of minutes after that when we all turned towards the same place, a fluctuation of power used to traverse the Sacred Lands of Zenos.

“< Divine Incarnation: 30% >” (Elizabeth)

“< Blood Walker >” (Elizabeth)

Elizabeth didn’t hesitate as she used everything she had as she was covered in blood with the space closing in on her until she disappeared. n./.(-.-/))./1.-n

“Do you think she can do it?” (I)

“Arrive on time, yes.” (Natasha)

“But she has no chance of winning even if he is injured.” (Natasha)

“She’ll be irritated.” (I)

“I know, but my concern right now is for Zenos, you can feel it, can’t you?” (Natasha)

“Yes, but does he know what he’s doing?” (I)

“No, his Divine Weapon is doing most of the work, he just doesn’t realize it’s giving him all the tools he needs.” (Natasha)

“I knew something like this would happen at some point, an incomplete Divine Weapon would not allow itself to do so, these are Divine concepts in their essence and there is no such thing as an incomplete concept.” (Natasha)

“Will he bear it?” (I)

“Go, his Soul is strong and just now we felt his Divine Incarnation, it was in initial form, but it shows that his Soul is ready.” (Natasha)

“But most of the power will be limited.” (I)

“Yes, but even our Divine Weapons are not used to their fullest.” (Natasha)

“If possible, I would like not to use that thing again.” (I)

“That’s why he died, he could have at least resisted Baldr’s interference in his mission if he had used his Divine Weapon…” (Natasha)

“I’d rather die than use that, you know that now shut up, he’s doing something…” (I)

Natasha doesn’t understand, her Divine Weapon suits her, and that’s why she likes to use it so much, but in my case, my Divine Weapon represents everything I hate about myself, it’s not the kind of thing that should be wielded by anyone.

“He started…” (Natasha)

“…” (I)

The mental world has already been destroyed and I don’t feel any mental waves in the area, I wave my hand, undoing the mental protections I kept on everyone while I was seeing the Starfire surrounding the entire Planet like a strange Sun.

The power appears to pulse as a flow of essence power forms a ring around the Planet, it even looks like a ring around the Sun as its colors change.

The Sun’s flames turn red and purple while the Ring around it becomes made of stellar energy like the rest of the planet’s flames were until a few minutes ago.

Even from this distance, I could feel the Holy Power spreading throughout the planet with the expansion of the Holy Lands, that was when another Light appeared this time silvery emerging from the burning Planet before becoming a broken Moon with its fragments floating around it.

The size of the two stars begins to vary while their energies seem to flow together forming an infinite cycle.

In the end, the two seem to collide forming something for a millisecond before disappearing, something I couldn’t fully see.

< Eclipse Walker > (Zenos)

Zenos’ words were not spoken through his voice or his mind, they were a proclamation of his Will through his Authority.

“…” (Natasha)

Sigh

I exchange looks with Natasha who spreads her wings leaving to look for Zenos, a wave of her power spread across the area, but when the light disappeared the Moon and the Sun disappeared, nothing on the planet was left but an empty space.

Soon Natasha returns after a few minutes with Zenos in her arms, once again unconscious, the proclamation from before was something instinctive based on the compulsion to name her act of creation using her Soul and Authority to mark its completion with a name.

“He is fine?” (I)

“Yes, no need to worry.” (Natasha)

“(She says this, but his Aura is vibrating like he’s close to collapse once again, he just came back from Hell and acts like this.)” (I)

“His Soul is fine, even if it is fragile for now, it will be fine in a short time… I hope…” (Natasha)
