Will of chaos

Pov Hela:

As soon as I entered the barrier it wasn't difficult to kill everyone, that's because they were almost all mages with few Warriors.

There is a reason why I used a Deadly Tree and Demonic Corpse Beasts, the trees are as strong as weapons and attack any living thing relentlessly from all sides except me while the Half Rotten Beasts also like to attack any living thing, but these Undead have the characteristic of spreading their odor around causing various abnormal effects such as necrotic poison, confusion and some types of diseases.

As soon as I went through their illusion I saw the few Warriors trying to fight the 3 trees and without the time to fight the much weaker Rotten Beasts, but these monsters don't need to be strong, they can spread the abnormal effects even dead while their bodies don't are burned, moreover, they are numerous and do not know fear, they will continue to attack until no one suffers.

"< Phantom Imprisonment >" (I)

I got behind a Mage, he was using a Barrier, but it's no use since the barrier is focused in front of him while I was behind, I gave a strong blow to his neck throwing him to the ground already unconscious and using a magic that creates rings of energy trapping him while slowly absorbing his energy.

I didn't want to waste my energy on a won battle, so I only used the moves the master taught me on these weakened enemies.

The mages, having weaker bodies, were easy to knock unconscious, they noticed my presence, but they didn't have time to use powerful spells being constantly attacked by hundreds of monsters, the more powerful a spell the more time it takes to use.

I kept knocking them unconscious one after the other, some tried to run away, but I always took advantage of this to catch them off guard before trapping them in the same way with the first one.

After that, I had to deal with Soldiers or Knights who weren't able to get away from the trees that wouldn't stop attacking long enough for them to flee.

"These are all if I'm not mistaken there are 109 people, not all are human, many are from races with great vitality." (I)

"[It was faster than expected.]" (Nicole)

"The secret is to attack the vulnerabilities, they had the numerical advantage and many among them were of the same strength level as me." (I)

"Now let's get started, maybe I'll do it above the forest, I don't want to cause any problems in the wild." (I)

"[Are you going to do it here?]" (Nicole)

"No, this is just one of the preparations." (I)

I build a large magic circle using the element of darkness and Demonic Energy, I used some Spiritual Runes I learned from Silvia at some points of the magic circle.

After that, I throw several gold coins that dissolve into pure Energy before being absorbed by the magic circle while controlling it to go higher, enough to be a little distance from the tops of the trees.

Soon the magic circle under my control pulls the enemies in, leaving them in heaps of unconscious people.

"It's a little over 100, so if I use 5 Evil Seeds that should be enough, I'll also need that special magic crystal." (I)

I throw 5 of the condensed malice-filled crystals into my magic circle which explode releasing a dense mist of miasma wanting to spread in the surroundings, but my magic circle starts greedily sucking in this evil energy. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

"No...no, no, please stop!!!"

"Pain... so much pain!!!"

"Aaahhhhh!!"

"[Are you sure this is safe?]" (Nicole)

"For me, it's pretty safe, but for them not so much, but they would be killed anyway." (I)

"[What's getting in the way of my connections with Father's Familiars?]" (Nicole)

"I don't know, I defeated all the mages." (I)

"[Isn't there anything else nearby? Not feeling anything in the area?]" (Nicole)

"There's nothing else I can see and I don't feel anything out of the ordinary." (I)

"[Then it must be because of the magic they used at the beginning, that magic that Rakan canceled, it must have affected the area.]" (Nicole)

I talk to Crow who has landed on my shoulder again, through him I can communicate with Nicole.

During our conversation I didn't stop looking at my magic circle, it is absorbing any kind of energy from them, but mainly life energy, the only exception would be holy energy.

The extraction process is extremely painful, and her screams are a bit annoying, but I can't do anything about that right now.

After about 10 minutes.

"[Everyone is over, just missing you.]" (Nicole)

"That's good, I'm wrapping up now." (I)

Inside the magic circle, there are only dry lifeless bodies, I already took everything I wanted from them, after that I pull the Magic Crystal made from the Core of a Unique Lich, a Core of a Dark Elemental, the core of a normal Dragon and some Evil Seeds. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

The magic crystal was dark gray the size of my head when I threw it in the middle of the magic circle, and then the magic circle was sucked into it before coming back to me, now with a pattern drawn all over the crystal just like the magic circle of now little, the crystal is now black with some spheres of light inside.

"This will be very useful, it will be worth everything I spent to gather the materials." (I)

"[Hela, go back now, the Judge seems to be making his move, it looks like he was waiting for everyone to die before acting.]" (Nicole)

"I'm going." (I)

Pov Zenos:

I was sitting on the edge of the Ship watching the battle, the vessel if something unexpected happened I was ready to intervene anywhere, but to my surprise, the battle was very easy.

The soldiers and Warriors fighting were too weak in numbers or explosive power to fight, but they lacked technique, adaptation, and combat experience, they were all too weak, and something is not right.

"I know what you're thinking, but that was to be expected, they are the reserves." (Ivan)

"Like this?" (I)

"The real fighters are at war, probably helping the Church of Light, they have an ancient alliance." (Ivan)

"..." (I)

"Little brother, it looks like the Judge is finally using his last resort, so get ready to fight." (Natasha)

"What do you mean, last resort?" (I)

"You didn't think that idiot was standing by this whole time just calmly watching his men die for nothing, did you?" (Natasha)

"I thought he was buying time waiting for backup..." (I)

"No, this idiot like most Judges only thinks about himself, everything must be going as his plans wanted, at least that's what he thinks." (Natasha)
