Chapter 2143 The Power Of Time (Part 2)
Chapter 2143 The Power Of Time (Part 2)
A dreaded feeling was coming over Layla, something she had experienced many times before, but at this stage at this point and time, she didn't quite think she would feel it again, helplessness. Flashing memories came into her mind, of times where she could't help her mother, times she was unable to help Erin, and Cia.
Watching this whole scene, she felt something as she reached out.
The sword could feel Layla's strong will and in turn it responded to it.
Blood filled the entirety of Layla's eyes, the white and not even the pupil could be seen. It started to come out from every hole that was possible, her nose, and ears, and dripped out from her mouth.
The sword told her not to let go, and she wasn't going to let go. Her mind had gone blank, she was unable to see, nor think. In this state there was no chance for her to fight.
It was invisible to the naked eye, but it had real effects. As the pulse moved through the air, everything started to move once again. It was sent out in all directions first hitting Minny.
'Where did that man go, did he run?' Minny thought, her eyes soon caught on to something else, it was her mother.
She witnessed her mother holding the sword with both her hands, her entire body shaking while standing in a pool of blood that was growing by the second.
The pulse went out, hitting Yongbu as well. He could move again, the powers of Mundus affected even celestials. He had an idea of what was happening but was unsure about what to do, or the reason for the time power breaking like so.
Layla was on the other side standing in her blood. Mundus was only a few metres away. Rather than trying to figure out the situation, she acted instead as she pulled out her trident and thrust it forward, shooting out a vortex of water.
"What are you even trying to do?" Mundus asked, while turning his head to look at Layla, he knew that his powers were having trouble from working due to her. "You, who has the most chance of beating me in a fight, can't even move because you are drawing out so much power from that sword.
"All of this is pointless."
'As expected, even though I'm this close to her, she can't swing the sword.'
Grabbing hold of the sword with one hand Mundus lightly pushed her with the other. No longer holding onto the sword, Layla immediately fell into her own pool of blood on the ice.
'Even though she is no longer using it, if I hold onto the sword, then I can't use my own powers. That is certainly an annoying weapon.' Mundus thought. He activated his powers again and everything came to a standstill.
On the ice though, there was something that Mundus was able to see that was moving.
In between Wince and Mundus there was another person that had moved, and that was Minny, but she didn't look the same as she did moments ago. Rather than in her red covered celestial self, her entire body was covered by the shadow.
'Is it that the god slayer-like power that Quinn possessed? It seems like this little girl can do it as well, but how is it blocking out my power?' Mundus thought.
"Now I see, it's not that my powers aren't working, but due to your ability they are taking longer to take effect." Mundus said. "Eventually, time will stand still for you as well."
As for Minny, she had no idea if covering herself in a shadow-like body like Quinn did from time to time would work. The shadow ability also had an effect of time.
With time, she too would eventually come to a standstill.
"My powers will eventually get to you, there is no point in fighting." Mundus said.
Minny remembered, she remembered very well that Quinn, her father, had given her a gift. He stated that she was only to use it if she felt like she was in dire need, if she really needed to.
