He let her vindictive unreasonably do the rest
The effect didnt start as one that would undo her Devicks desiccated flesh ballooned back to its previous form Long waves of luscious red hair flowed down her back Her piercing eyes returned looking at him in confusion then wicked glee as she felt power flowing through her shoulders and down to her fingers Oh Now what is this Have you finally
And then her urge to squeeze and resist activated The power continued to flow in but Devick instinctively tried to force the kind energy to compact and twist
Her body collapsed in on itself the right shoulder snapping sharply down and collapsing her chest cavity Flesh grew and reformed in only a heartbeat healed by the same energy that couldnt be controlled The discordant notes couldnt defeat her near invulnerable core but the softly grown flesh Randidly had gifted to her couldnt withstand the vicious note And when the collapse happened a tiny wisp of the sadistic truth she sought escaped during the healing
What In a split second Devicks body had returned to its prior form due to the energy Randidly supplied His Nether Core continued to whirl The Fourth Authority gave without any strings attached Devick looked down at her hands Tch excuse me how unseemly to show you that lack of control Now if you truly wish to support me
Her pale throat began to rot as a remnant burst of her captured necrotic Grand Fate got ahold of it buoyed up by the warm animation The flesh fell away and her voice went with it leaving only a rasping noise as the rot spread down through the rest of her body
She couldnt resist that extra strength it followed Devicks instincts So she failed to compensate
Randidlys energy healed her wound but then her waist began to melt from the venom in the serpent tail Grand Fate The look on Devicks face shifted from confusion to genuine fear Her truth took another step away from the Pinnacle as healing was gifted freely to her Her resistance stirred and lashed Now she was just a powerful individual no longer with that approaching resonance
Over and over again Devick tried to find the balance in her image as Randidly channeled pure life energy through her limbs She popped she tore she collapsed her skeleton shredded its way out of her flesh her brain overheated until it melted her image falling and falling and falling Once one of her eyes turned briefly crimson as Lyra made her presence known Then the eye had popped obliterating half of Devicks skull
Randidly just observed and gave to her The Actus Suprem couldnt handle it
Panting and trembling with blood leaking out of her nose Devick stretched a hand toward him Randidly Ghosthound What
Do you hate it just a little bit Randidly said quietly His heart throbbed All the jokes you made wanting my love wanting the connection with me now that Ive given it to you its going to undo you It’s not cute to be unable to handle everything youve always asked for Actus Suprem
Lyra smiled You showed me a magical world one I had craved for so so long And I know that every time you ignored me every time you cursed me for my mistakes it was exactly because you wanted to rip down the tragic foundations that doom all of us walking through the Nexuss halls You dont need to feel sorry Randidly I deserved this
You deserve far worse than this Devick roared her torso bulging until she looked more like a grub than a person
You deserved better than this Randidly said This at least he was sure he meant
Lyra bowed her head Randidly gritted his teeth and looked away Her projection faded and settled back within Devick a crimson core animating a physical form suddenly provided with infinite gifts And Devicks twisted soul corrupted and squandered them all destroying herself in the process
Randidly released a breath that lasted for almost five seconds By the end his diaphragm trembled with the physical reality of compressing his lungs until nothing remained After holding that squeezed state for ten more seconds he allowed his mouth to open and for air to flood back through him I thought I had so much time to make connections or heal them But its also true I thought I had no time for anything but preparing to defeat you
Randidly pivoted his attention finally turning to the two very pressing details of the environment he couldnt avoid First despite the fact he now had undone Devick herself Randidly had been careful not to destabilize the giant orb of gathered Grand Fates above him Half because he wanted to figure out if these could be safely returned to their original owners Half because his heart sank as he witnessed the serpents of Devicks madness that swam and spat within the depths of that energy
In a way Devick had already won her Deviation would lurk within the Nexus for the rest of existence
The second detail was Fiero floating opposite Randidly in the ruins of this place who allowed the foggy halo of energy to fall from his body and reveal his withered form His long Vulpine arms hung limply at his sides but his eyes were bright I have observed your conversation with the Actus Suprem For handling her so neatly I commend you
However she spoke the truth While you insist on causing such chaos in mine demesne she did inform you truly about the threat posed by Don Beigons action Fiero squinted at Randidly Set aside this petty squabble The sanctity of the Nexus is more important than your pride boy We must not allow the husk that is Pine to shatter everything weve built If that fool Don is touched by even the edge of him that is exactly what will occur
You know Im not gonna agree to stop now You are losing Fiero Randidly rolled his shoulders It was a relief to set aside his regrets and focus his animosity toward a fight He felt a dull roaring in his chest as his Nether Core seemed to be looping its own flow around itself over and over again The changes were mirrored through Pangus Asymptote and some balancing tributaries traced out a rough organic ritual around them
Congratulations Your Skill Randidly Ghosthound Executive of Nether Reborn has grown to Level 1707
Foreign significance turned sluggish as it neared him The patterns became increasingly detailed as the process in the Alpha Cosmos continued Between Phaea Malaa and Toosah balance would be achieved
His Nether Core continued to spin and process its misty innards Soon Randidly sensed the depths of the crystal bubble would be flawless a new plateau of Nether reached Somehow he sensed he would need all the power he can get
Your foolhardy behavior is at least consistent Fiero said However I have already prepared my response While you handled the Actus Suprem your subordinates have been handled I have already cut off their connection to you If you wish to see them alive you will capitulate to my demands and eliminate the Don
For a brief second Randidly froze He felt confident in his subordinates in their fight against Devicks elite soldiers but withstanding Elhume moving directly was another thing entirely And when he reached for their connection
Congratulations Your Skill Emerald Eyes and Dove Whispers Certify the Objective has grown to Level 1531
Randidlys lip curled but the flood of relief included notes of alarm You didnt isolate the connection Youve woven a massive time distortion around me
Fiero didnt even seem put out that Randidly saw through him immediately He just chuckled And how well do you think theyve faired during your repose
Chapter 2392
The change arrived silently prickling across the back of all their necks
Finally Elhume moves Don Beigon muttered to himself as he looked at the horizon Behind him he could feel all the joviality falling out of the gathered individuals
All of their bravery had fallen away when the shadow of their tyrant The laughter and babble had been silence And honestly the Don couldnt blame them Even though he had spent the last several hundred years preparing for exactly this challenging confrontation his heart still started to flutter
It was not a soft heart or wise maneuvers with which Elhume had claimed his peak He had forged his crown with power
