Will of chaos

I used a teleportation spell from Frontier City to reach the planet that was attacked a short time ago, I wasn’t alone, Silvia was together as well as Elizabeth and Ivan.

Erica also came along, she actually forced me to participate in her investigation, but since I came this far it won’t cost anything to participate, exploring an alien planet can be exciting.

“Dad, I’m glad I made it on time.” (Irius)

“Did something happen? I thought they had already eliminated the invading monsters.” (I)

“According to the inhabitants of this world, more of the things you defeated alongside Ragnar have come to light.” (Irius)

“…” (I)

“Because this is relevant to me, the people of this world must have people strong enough to fight them.” (I)

“The problem is not fighting, the real problem is in the ability to do sado, they don’t seem to have any kind of elemental weakness, and they can also regenerate from any damage.” (Irius)

“I figured that out before… but they still don’t want me to finish them off, do they?” (I)

Irius came to meet us and explains the situation, they don’t want me to defeat the monster, they want magic crystals with Curse of Blood to use in magical rituals as weapons in an attempt to kill these things since my Curse has proven to be more effective than those that they used.

One thing I learned to do was use my crystallized blood to create magic crystals, so I already had several stored, unfortunately, none of them were Curse types and so I spent some time creating these magic blood crystals with cursed energy inside.

————

After Irius took the things he asked for, we all started to investigate, we were close to the place of the last combat, Elizabeth already knew the planet and is serving as a guide.

As soon as we arrived I looked at Silvia, she realized the same as I did, I left this discovery aside to first look for evidence to prove my theory.

I went down to the floor where there were magicians and Alchemists everywhere but with plenty of space between them.

I ignore everyone and look at the earth which is purple in color, moreover, I can see blue roots growing everywhere, as soon as I pull out a part of those roots what comes out is red blood, the root itself didn’t look like a plant either, its texture was similar to meat.

“Elizabeth, these aren’t plants.” (I)

“No, that’s definitely blood, even though it smells awful, I’m pretty sure it’s blood.” (Elizabeth)

What was on the floor stained purple was blood, but it wasn’t normal blood, it was like some kind of cursed potion using blood as the main ingredient.

While I was studying the ground, Elizabeth walked over to one of the still-shredded creatures nearby.

“I knew it, that’s wrong, these are Taint Octopuses, they don’t invade planets, their targets are usually monsters or people with only 1 Elemental Affinity.” (Elizabeth)

“They also don’t have mouths anywhere on their bodies, they draw energy through touch, their blood is also a lighter purple.” (Elizabeth)

“On the ground it appears to be blood, but it contains a lot of cursed energy.” (I)

“These strange roots are also spreading from the body, see how it spreads.” (Silvia)

I don’t have proof, but it’s pretty clear that the people Astrid spoke to must be responsible.

“I don’t understand, they attacked for no reason?” (I)

“No, it wasn’t without reason.” (Elizabeth)

“< Blood Arts: Tyranny of Life >” (Elizabeth)

Elizabeth seems to be furious when she bites her own wrist causing her blood to leak, then her Aura and Authority mix with the blood that takes the form of a ritual magic circle, my sister throws jewels containing the power of life into 8 corners of the magic circle.

Soon she pours absurd amounts of power into the magic that spreads in all directions like a red wave of energy.

I stayed quiet but I can feel that the environment itself seems to shake with this magic, a few seconds later Elizabeth has her legs shaking, and I help her to continue standing when the magic stopped leaving us blood in the air to evaporate.

“Those bastards…” (Elizabeth)

Pov Athena:

The vehicle was the same size seen from the inside, it seems they didn’t apply Space element magic to enlarge the interior.

I found it strange that those who were already inside the vehicle, they looked at us warily and I could feel magical reactions in several places.

“Don’t be cautious, they won’t do anything, they need us more than the other way around.” (Nicole)

“Even if it weren’t for that, they can’t do anything to me here.” (Zadiris)

“Thanks for the warning.” (I)

The vehicle did not have accommodations for everyone and would take a few days to arrive, as he was advised.

“Can I talk to you?” (Magnus)

“Feel free.” (I)

I was in a small room overlooking the outside, inside the room there were only a few tables, must be where they have their meals, I was wanting some time alone to understand more about the necklace I received when Magnus appeared.

“I heard that you were once a candidate for Inquisitor of Light, I would like to know how you managed to control the opposing powers of light within you.” (Magnus)

“Controlling different elements is often difficult, what I did was use my Aura as a conduit instead of my own body, this made it easier in the early stages of my training.” (I)

“If possible, can we have an Aura clash?” (Magnus)

“Of course, maybe it’s easier for a Dragon to learn by seeing for himself.” (I)

He and I extended our hands to shake, with the Auras appearing only in our hands, but before doing something like that, we stopped to look outside.

“[We’re under attack, everyone who can fight…]” (Astrid)

“It seems that the energy has stopped circulating through the vehicle, I can also feel something trying to interfere with the Mana inside my body.” (I)

“Magical interference, it looks like we’ve fallen into a trap.” (Magnus)

“Yes, I’m glad, I had my doubts if they would really show up like master Zenos said.” (I)

Magnus forces the locked door open by crushing it, so we run outside going straight to the exit following my memory, when we got there the lights before off started to blink and Nicole’s Aura was spreading through the walls of this place.

“Nicole seems to have everything under control, I won’t show up to prevent them from discovering our full strength, I hope they manage to take care of everyone.” (Zadiris)

“We’re ready, you can open.” (I)

The doors to the outside open, and I feel the raw power hit me backwards before being held back by Veronica, I also feel a vibration of energy cause the vehicle to shudder from one direction.

“< Blood Reinforcement >” (Alice)

“Me and Nicole will take care of the vehicle, they fit with the enemies.” (Alice)

I feel my blood boil as pure energy coursing through my veins much faster than before, so I spread my wings and fly out with the others following behind.

Outside what we saw were creatures with long arms and legs, bones like blades coming out of the arms, an eye coming out in the middle of the chest where very fast energy shots coming towards us, on its head just a vertical round mouth with several rings of teeth.

There were hundreds of enemies, but I felt that something was wrong, these monsters were only on one side and it was not the same side from which the first tremor came.

I wave Veronica and Loki to the other side, then prepare to threaten along with Magnus.

“< Sun and Moon Swords >” (I)

Two rings flashed when these weapons are summoned into my hands, two double-edged swords, one being silver and the other being gold.

I looked at the enemies already launching an attack, but instead of defending I use the silver sword to clash with the lightning attacks, each attack that hits my sword goes back to one of the monsters with my Aura mixed in increasing the damage.

Soon after I use the sword of the Sun concentrating my Aura on its blade turning the Aura into a flame that will ignore magical defenses.

“< Eclipse Dragon’s Fist >” (Magnus)

As I start to go towards the enemies giving us momentum with my wings, Magnus concentrated his power in his fists coming after me in his Human form.

I cut the enemies to pieces, and any attack made against me was returned with more force, the monsters were too weak, and it made me realize our mistake.

“Magnus, let’s finish now, Field of Light.” (I)

“< Field of Light >” (I/Magnus)

With me and Magnus as the center beams of light appeared from below in a large area around us, after that I ran to the other side of the vehicle, but what I found was a human body in Loki’s hands while several creatures like the ones I ended up to kill were floating lifeless. 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍．𝙘𝒐𝙢

“Was that the boss?” (I)

“No, he was begging to live and be saved, so I killed him quickly, no fun messing with a doll being controlled.” (Loki)

“I hate these things.” (Veronica)

“< Reveal the Hidden >” (Veronica)

Shield in hand, Veronica concentrates some Holy Power and Spirit Energy before an eye appears on her shield looking in one direction before firing a golden beam that shatters an illusion.

I pick up a dagger and throw it with force, destroying the magic item in place, but strangely blood oozes out of the magic item revealing pieces of a person inside.

“Should I take that?” (Magnus)

“No, it looks like there’s a…curse.” (I)

Before I finished speaking it started to burn down to ashes in blue flames.
