Chapter 858 Cap 856: Let The Dice Roll
After talking to Henrique I open my eyes giving Nix’s body control back to her again as I head upstairs, the only reason I have this freedom is because of Nicole only listening to me.
Guild master Dargon already realized that if it depends only on Nicole’s goodwill, this city could explode that she will have little interest, she doesn’t care about people she doesn’t know, but I learned that she cares a lot about people she knows and has a call.
Because of that, she obeys me, in her eyes I’m not a Father, I’m a friend who is always supporting her with everything and helped her dream come true, so what I say has a big impact on her.
As soon as I enter the room I give a signal for them to take a break, by the Guild master’s expression I know he didn’t like it, but if he wants to continue receiving help from Nicole he has serious things he needs to put up with.
I tell the Guildmaster everything High Priest Henry said, I know he didn’t realize the strangeness of the monsters because he’s not fighting them directly, but after listening to me he asked me several questions and then called leaders of others Adventurous groups to confirm what I said or add some new information.
After that, I left that problem for him to think about while I went back downstairs to sleep before the next combat shift change.
I didn’t even try to give any ideas, Guildmaster Dargon is stronger than me, more experienced, and must not be an idiot since he got a job where he commands others, he will think of something of his own.
———-
After waking up and eating something I start to check my equipment before the shift change, but at this moment several Priests with different clothes enter, 6 of them were wearing Church of Light clothes and tried to attack me the moment they entered.
“Die Heretic!!!!!!” (6 idiots)
“Stop! I don’t need any more trouble now, get out of here!” (Dargon)
The 6 idiots attacked me inside a hall full of Adventurers without saying anything, they didn’t even look around and just suddenly started an attack, I think my presence is much more provocative than I thought for Priests devoted to God Baldr.
Guildmaster Dargon did not appear, but his voice was heard from all directions as a bloodthirsty Aura seemed to appear out of nowhere surrounding the 6 Priests who fell to the ground as if gravity had increased hundreds of times.
Soon they seemed to be grabbed by something that threw them out, the other Priests of other religions had expressions confused by these events, but knowing that this was not the time to ask questions but to act, they followed the nervous Guild employee upstairs.
“…” (I)
I look around noticing that all the Adventurers are looking at us or more specifically looking at me, I could understand the confusion, suspicion, and curiosity in their eyes, so I grabbed Vanessa’s arm and flew out with the others in our group following shortly behind.
I wouldn’t waste my day worrying about what’s on other people’s minds, but I wouldn’t stand around getting weird looks either.
“Looks like we have company.” (I)
“I’ll take care of it.” (Karina)
On our way, a Pegasus with a Dragon’s head and claws for paws appeared, it also has Dragon scales all over its body, I remember this monster from the books I read to pass the time, it’s called the Dragon Horse, I always thought it should be a imposing and strong monster, but he is fierce.
“Taking care of a Lesser Dragon won’t be difficult.” (Karina)
“< Presence of True Strength >” (Karina)
“Die.” (Karina)
“< Zenos Incarnation >” (Karina)
“Incarnation of what!?” (I)
An indistinct shadowy claw emerges from Karina’s back as it grows and crushes the Dragon Horse as if it were nothing, but in the moment of the grip, I felt the forces of Nature increasing the strength of the hand.
“Come.” (I)
Ding!
I watch the indistinct arm disappear as the Dragon Horse’s now twisted body falls, I suck all the blood out of its large body as I drink it before looking at Karina who was paler.
“What was that just now, did your Aura look like mine and why did your attack have my name on it?” (I)
“I am your Dragon Priestess, all my power comes from you, my Authority comes from you as I am your representative, all who have Lesser Dragon bloodlines find themselves weak before the Authority that a true Dragon boasts just by existing.” (Karina)
“My Ability just now is something I’m still learning, it helps me channel your power in the form of something similar to an Avatar of yours, so it must have your name.” (Karina)
“But it’s hard for me to form a clear picture of you, and it’s also very draining for me.” (Karina)
“Stop talking, there’s more coming.” (Lilith)
“< Field of Madness >” (Lilith)
“We tested your luck.” (Loki)
“< Dice of Power >” (Loki)
Soon hundreds of Harpies come towards us, all with Catastrophe Grade strength, they are Harpies with most of the female body including the face, but they wore metal armor molded on their bodies, they had wings instead of bird arms and legs.
They fight using their feet while maneuvering in the air naturally and cooperating with each other, their screams are sound attacks while their songs cause various status effects like confusion, hallucinations, delirium, pain, sleep, and many others depending on the Harpy, they are very complicated monsters to deal with.
As soon as they got close Lilith throws herself forward expanding her Aura to the surroundings and using her Aura as a means to spread a curse not on the Harpies but on the space around her creating disharmony in the controlled nature that should amplify the effect of madness of your Aura since I see some Harpies attacking empty places or attacking each other.
At that moment Loki steps forward while bowing as if he is at a stage show performing in front of an audience, then a Golden die forms on top of his head sending out waves of energy to the surroundings that are only directed towards the Harpies.
New golden dice form on top of their heads, I realized that this dice is intangible when the Harpies’ confused attacks pierce through the dice.
Soon the 6 sided golden dice change their colors with 3 sides having red colors, 2 sides having green colors, and 1 side having golden color. 𝚋𝚎d𝚗ov𝚎𝚕.co𝚖
The dice on top of Loki’s head have 5 green sides and one red side, so the dice start spinning at the same time and 3 seconds later they all stop at the same time while the side facing up glows.
Those with the red color have streams of energy sucked from them into the exploding dice, while those with the green side glowing have a portion of the streams of energy from the others turned red being directed towards them.
It was no surprise that Loki got the green color with big advantage dice, but even among the Harpies there were more than 10 that had a green result getting stronger, but that only made worse the massacre they were doing to each other.
Only one of the Harpies was unlucky enough to acquire a golden side of the dice, at that moment his dice became completely golden and a mouth full of teeth devoured it causing the dice to change to a golden sculpture of a Harpy that began to attack its companions seeming to be unaffected by the area of curses or Lilith’s Aura.
