Chapter 569 - Battle Of Doom (3)
"Why, why did it turn out like this?" Oceanid muttered as if he couldn't believe what had just happened in such a short amount of time.
"Ehm, it'll be fine. I can feel Ely and my big sister are still alive. They're probably just fighting in the void, that Ruvoid God's domain." Nell has other assumptions, even though she didn't know much about dimensions laws.
"No, that is something quite different. That Ruvoid God tore a parallel dimensional hole to break free from the shackles of the Goddess of Light's dome layered barrier.
And the one that he launched just now was none other than void. There is no domain in the void because it is nothingness. That accursed being intended to lock Ely and her master in a void forever, but the Goddess of Nature foiled his plan." Oceanid stared at the spot where the last dimensional opening had been.
"Then, what are we going to do now? We're too late to enter, and I don't understand the humum of parallel dimensions. Can you open a portal for us to go there or get them out of there?" Nell frowned. She finally realized that the situation had gotten really bad just like that.
"My understanding of dimensional laws isn't that deep. I only know the concept but don't have the power to do it. However, let me give it a try." Oceanid deactivated his battle armor and landed on the ground to check the dimensional fluctuations around the dimensional hole spot just now.
"What, what just happened? Ely, her master, Sylvia, and Vannessa were sucked in there? Not to mention the Goddess of Nature and the Evil God too… They'll be fine, right?" Yuuki stammered with a pale expression.
"They'll be fine. I'm sure of it..." Ella quietly clasped her hands in prayer, but her trembling hands and pale expression betrayed her.
"Oh, God..." Evelyn covered her mouth as she tried to stand up. She looked around to see who wasn't there.
"This is bad. I can't open the portal because I haven't reached that high level of dimensional law." Oceanid shook his head with a sad and disappointed face.
"I'm sure they'll be fine. For now, let's wipe out the accursed creatures on the island." Nell gritted her teeth in annoyance.
Even so, she didn't show that and just stared at her group. She immediately took out her magic carpet from her Private Realm. "This area has become too dangerous for all of you. Lynn, please remove your royal carriage. My magic carpet will take you all to safety."
"Un-understood." Lynn immediately followed the order without asking.
The girls and little beasts still looked pale at that time, but they boarded the carriage even though some were reluctant.
Gio dug into the ground as if he was looking for something right where the dimensional hole had previously been. Yuuki also refused to go because she was stubborn to wait for Ely to return.
"Yuuki... Ely also won't want to see you hurt by staying here. This Ruvoid God, the holder of the power of curses and dimensional laws, is far more powerful than expected. Let's go according to the orders of the Goddess of Blessings." Lynn held Yuuki's arm with sadness.
"B-but, I, that-" Yuuki gritted her teeth as she felt so useless and weak.
She intends to swear her loyalty to Elysia after this divine battle because she intends to become her savior's loyal servant. However, this kind of outcome was the worst thing she least wanted. Elysia was thrown into the void somewhere unknown...
Nell gave the signal once again to tell everyone to leave. Oceanid then lifted Gio off the ground and put the brown tortoise into the carriage.
Although Gio rebelled in disapproval, he ended up silent after Theo explained the gravity of the current situation.
"Sigh..." Nell sighed to see the carriage fly away in the sky. After that, she turned around to return to the battlefield because their battle to eradicate the accursed monsters wasn't over yet. "Let's go back."
"..." Oceanid did not immediately catch up with Nell, who had flown away first. He stared at his avatar because he knew this little one wanted to say something. "What do you want to say?"
"I'll merge with you. That way, you can muster 99 percent of your current combat strength. We've already weakened considerably from our golden era, but our opponents have only weakened and regressed a bit. It's an unequal battle even though we outnumber their Gods. You need to find a solution to that problem. It's an old difficulty that hasn't been resolved until now." Oceanid's avatar announced with seriousness on his face.
"I understand it very well. In the past, it was three against one and we were still on the losing side. But now, it's four, with the addition of two, against one, and we don't have the upper hand..." Oceanid frowned to look at the distant sky. It was a bitter truth.
"Good." Oceanid's avatar then melted into a blue liquid and merged into the real Oceanid's body.
Oceanid immediately summoned his battle armor and shot toward the sealed island area. A lot of work had to be done to clean up the mess. Perhaps, the island would be destroyed as the only final solution.
Meanwhile, just as Elysia was sucked into the void, Elena went straight into the Soul Realm to ensure Elysia wasn't hurt at all by scanning from the inside.
It was a strange realm where as far as the senses could see, was nothing but darkness, silence, and nothingness. There was no realm boundaries or footholds, truly absolute emptiness.
Elysia's face turned a little blue because she couldn't speak or breathe. She became extremely panicked when she realized that she was slowly burning.
'Ely, here there is no oxygen and gravity. The air and atmosphere here contain many chemical elements that are harmful to the body. Help me-' Elena was just about to remind, but some individuals suddenly entered out of nowhere.
Elysia's focus was instantly diverted because she could see Sylvia and Vanessa struggling with pain. She couldn't think of anything else but to rush to help them. She wrapped them in a layered golden barrier.
Even though the barrier was eroded and melted, Elysia continued to repair it until she forgot that she was eroded and injured by a mysterious chemical element in the air.
'Ely, you idiot!' Elena shouted. She forcibly activated Elysia's divine treasure and wrapped Elysia in a layered barrier.
'Thank you.' Elysia watched her dress turn into particles and magically transform into her bluish-black battlesuit.
At that moment, two individuals entered that realm. Rhea looks very angry. She stabbed him several times with the silver-gold magic wand. She hurled him several hundred meters before he floated up like a broken doll.
"Kehaha! Welcome to my void, a realm of destruction where there is no way out. You will all die slowly here no matter how strong you are. Everything you do will drain your magic and erode your existence to nothingness hahaha!" Alashor pulled out the magic wand as if it didn't do much damage to him.
After that, he looked at the injured six-winged black-haired girl with an evil grin. But, he had another plan to start with because he felt humiliated after being impaled twice by that six-winged green Goddess.
"Accept my vengeance, you stupid green Goddess." Alashor stretched out his hand, and an energy fluctuation instantly burned Rhea alive.
Yet, the jet-black fire was instantly extinguished due to Elysia's intervention.
"Hou~ Your magic's effectiveness is still so significant in my void? I'm becoming more and more curious about who you are. But, where is the golden one who is always with you? Kekeke, nevermind, I have eternity to interrogate and torture you out." Alashor rubbed his hands together with laughter like a great villain.
His original plan was to lock up his biggest threats here and take care of them later, but he needed to speed things up since the situation had become like this. Not to mention, there were some extra experimental subjects there. He was the only one in power in this void where the others could do nothing but accept their miserable fate.
"Goddammit!" Xero shot up like a rocket and dealt a heavy blow to Alashor's head.
*Bonk!*
The impact sent Alashor flying and spinning like a spinning top.
"You think I'll just let you go even if you escape to another dimension? I'll kill you and that's for sure!" Xero growled and threw the silver-gold magic wand like a bullet.
*Splat*
The silver-gold magic wand pierced Alashor's chest. It was already the third time such a weapon had attacked him by piercing through his body.
"Heh? You can talk and move freely? Is it because of the curse energy in your body?" Alashor smirked while looking intently at the big devil guy.
"..." Xero looked at his hands. He could see that he was being eroded away little by little as if the particles in this realm were eating away at him.
However, he could see the same for everyone, including the so-called absolute ruler of this realm, the Ruvoid God.
"Heh, you said that to yourself. So, the possessor of curse energy can still use magic perfectly in this place, and we still get eroded bit by bit. Nevertheless, it's still much better than those who don't have curse energy on their bodies. It's just a matter of time." Xero snorted when he saw how the human, devil, cat, and Rhea were injured with a lot of blood.
"It's just like you. How long will you survive in my void while facing me? Your chances of winning are slim out there, but that's already impossible in this realm." Alashor frowned to pull out the magic wand from his chest. He had already taken quite a lot of damage and insisted on an instant healing in a short period of time.
Rhe used that time to try to go near Elysia. She then whispered something and threw a dozen silver-gold magic wands at the Ruvoid God, who was too busy dealing with the Evil God.
*Stab* *Stab* *Stab*
"Arrgh!!!" Alashor groaned in pain as he took too many attacks that he didn't have time to dodge.
"Don't interfere, this is my battle and his doom. Take care of your wounds and try not to die." Xero looked back for a stern warning before he dashed off to launch a barrage of attacks at the Ruvoid God mercilessly.
Rhea just snorted and looked into Elysia's eyes. She was grateful to receive protection in the form of a layered barrier that was continuously regenerated. However, it was only a matter of time until they were destroyed in this dangerous void.
She then tried to open the dimensional gap, but all her efforts failed and were fruitless. Elysia was also unable to open Nature Realm's portal.
'Ely, try blending our magic with Rhea's divine laws. Our Private Patron Goddess has a pretty deep understanding of dimensions, right?' Elena suggested, and Elysia agreed wordlessly.
Elysia held Rhea's hand and gave an encouraging smile. 'Let's try again.'
Rhea nodded in understanding and tried to swing her hand again horizontally to tear the dimension. A dimensional gap was created with the tremendous amount of magic energy from Elysia.
However, it sucked everything into it with an extremely terrifying suction force.
Elysia and Elena couldn't do anything. Rhea was the same. While Sylvia closed her eyes in resignation while hugging Vanessa.
Before they were sucked into the dimensional gap, Rhea smiled tenderly and hugged Elysia tightly. She whispered something, but Elysia couldn't hear anything as telepathy was completely disturbed by the vicious fluctuations of the corrupted dimension. Elysia only looked at Rhea's lips movement.
All Elysia could do was make sure Sylvia and Vanessa weren't hurt. However, she could only rely on Elena to help her to repair the protective barrier around herself and Rhea.
Elena was also shouting about something in her mind, but Elysia couldn't understand anything clearly. Elysia could only stare at the dimensional gap with a pale face and passive gaze as they were all sucked into nowhere.
"How, impossible!?" Alashor exclaimed in surprise as he saw the dimensional gap there. It sucked in everything, and his void seemed to be slowly collapsing by an unknown force.
"..." Xero was speechless to see the achievements of the girls. He couldn't find the Golden Goddess's whereabouts anywhere, but that dimensional gap would definitely destroy this void soon.
The distance between him and that dimensional gap was quite far, so he could still hold on with a few minutes remaining. He might be able to take advantage of this opportunity to kill this Ruvoid God because of the current volatile energy turmoil.
"You're not going anywhere until I kill you. This battle will become legendary." Xero smirked and launched several ultimate attacks on the injured Ruvoid God. He actually had the upper hand because his opponent's strength was drained by the many silver-gold wands stuck there.
After that brutal all-out battle, Xero and Alashor could only be sucked into the dimensional gap. The former was incredibly satisfied even though his strength ran out, and the latter was seriously injured, one step towards death.
"If death is what awaits over there, then I have already cleared my dignity and reputation by killing an Accursed God." Xero crossed his arms in front of his chest with a smile.. He was ready to meet Rhea and the other Gods in the afterlife without shame.
