Chapter 416: Confrontation!
Valen ordered his subordinates to quickly move towards the source of the problem. Ernesticia used her abilities to easily detect a disturbance in spacetime, Abyss was spotted quicker than Chaos could have expected, and the entire group flew through the skies and was about to reach them!
BOOOM!!!
However, a sudden explosion happened right in the wall, as inner circuits of one of the areas of the walls which were being hacked by Erebus and Rust suddenly exploded, opening the way for Chaos and his allies to enter!
Silver and his three allies opened their eyes wide in surprise and astonishment, as they realized that the precious walls that their master Valen had paid for were just suddenly broken!
CRASHH… BOOM!
The pieces of debris began to fall into the city, crushing several houses were most of the space pirates and other space bandits lived, which Chaos didn't gave a damn about.
Meanwhile, Chaos looked outside of the space created by Abyss to travel across the spatial layers, she glanced at the giant hole with surprise, he had actually not expected the two to just break the walls, but it seems that they noticed the enemies approaching and decided to do something quite drastic.
Chaos heard the voice of Erebus quickly speaking to him through telepathy.
"Father, move inside now that we opened the way! The enemies are approaching, be careful inside!"
Chaos quickly looked inside and saw in the distance four figures overflowing with divine power. For the most part, they were slightly stronger, which amused him a bit, but they were nothing he couldn't handle… However, was he able to leisurely take down all four of them at the same time? Quite possibly, but it would take some time, which he didn't had.
"Let's go inside then!" Said Abyss.
"Abyss, everyone, the gods we fought before seem to have recovered in this small time frame, are you ready to fight them?" Asked Chaos. "Cthully, quickly read the minds of the people and figure the place where they have Nesephise captive."
"Yes!" Said Cthully.
"Yeah, we are ready." Said Edward. "We'll take care of them, Chaos-sama, so please don't feel pressured by them and do what you must do!"
"We'll take them on!" Said Belphegor.
"Trust on us in this one, my lord." Said Ifrit.
"I am ready to fight this time around." Said Lilith.
Although Chaos felt reassured by their words, he was also worried about the gigantic aura of red-color he could feel atop the tower in the middle of the city, Valen was there. It seems he had yet to notice his presence, as he was confined inside the pocket dimension that Abyss created using Space Magic.
He thought that it was better to hide his presence for the moment, as long as he could hide it, Valen wouldn't panic nor he would come down here so hurriedly. As he had only decided to fight when he sensed Chaos beating all his lackeys… Perhaps this way, it would be possible to find some more time.
"Ah, I found her!" Said Cthully, quickly talking with Chaos.
"Nesephise is… in that tower!" Said the Scylla, pointing at the tower where Valen was!
"So she's in Valen's tower?!" Asked Abyss.
"And the egg as well… He's guarding both of them…" Sighed Cthully.
"Hm, I see… Abyss, do you think we can go there?" Asked Chaos.
"We can, leave it to me, my lord!" Said Abyss while nodding confidently.
"Very well, let's go." Said Chaos.
After Abyss left a clone to assist her friends inside the city, she carried Chaos, Cthully, Tristan, Lancelot, and Aruliel towards Valen's tower, all while Silver and his group were unaware of this, except Ernesticia!
She looked into the direction the small pocket dimension of Abyss was moving across the spatial layers, quickly realizing they were trying to get inside of her lord's tower! But for what reason?
"These bastards want to go to our lord's tower! What is the reason behind this?!" She wondered, as she suddenly noticed an even bigger pocket dimension being made right behind the group of warriors left by Chaos, confusing her! This was the pocket dimension created by Abyss' clone, she had let it create an even bigger and "stronger" pocket dimension to fool Ernesticia, already knowing that this woman was a spatial magician capable of sensing and creating other spaces.
"W-What is the real one? She… is there another Spatial Magician I am not aware of? But this one is definitely so big and masterfully made compared to the other… Grr… I'll have to quickly tell them about this one and open it for Silver and the rest, or we'll be in a serious trouble if they abuse such power…" Thought Ernesticia, quickly telling Silver and the rest of her party about that one big pocket dimension, all while Chaos' group emerged into the city led by Belphegor.
"A Blazing Skull?!" Asked Brutus, as he looked at Belphegor. "Hey, I remember this guy, he was one of the ones that came back after rushing towards his master, I guess he also ran away afterwards, I believe…" The Orc God said as he looked at Belphegor, it was a giant blazing skull, nothing else, anyone would feel frightened by its sight, but the brute Orc saw it as a fitting challenge as he smiled maliciously, branding his axe, and covering it with his divine, red-colored aura of his War Divinity. "I'll take this one!"
"Brutus, wait, don't be reckless!" Said Lucia, chasing down at Brutus as he flew ahead of time. Silver looked into the wall worriedly, without actually seeing the others as much of a threat, as he had beaten them rather nicely before and he knew he could do it again if he wanted.
"Lucia, Brutus, Ernesticia, take care of that garbage, I will assist you with my drones, however, I have to go deal with the walls and whoever is trying to hack them by lord Valen's request." Said Silver, flying away at fast speed…
