CHAPTER LIII: Betrayal and Broken Promise
CHAPTER LIII: Betrayal and Broken Promise
I keep on swinging my weapon to slash these balls of dark energies pursuing me and to eliminate these annoying living corpses tainted with filth and poisonous stench. Not yet. I can’t resort to that. I need to reserve my trump card in this fight for Astaroth. I know he has many more to offer in his sleeve. But I’m thinking he’s a really worthy opponent because he’s using underhanded tactics to exhaust us and push us to our limits. D*mn that coward demon king! Why don’t he fight us himself?“Because that’s the nature of his cursed magic. He’ll use his enemy’s loved one or someone close to them to make them feel betrayed. Astaroth believes that betrayal does not come from enemies stabbing you behind your back but it comes the from person you trusted the most,” Mammon answered my question while I continue evading and slashing those attacks from the enemy’s puppe

CHAPTER LIV: Farewell, My BrotherI laid Raid’s lifeless body on the ground. “You fought a good fight, Raid. Thank you… thank you for everything you did for me. I appreciate you. You may take rest now. Rest in me… my love,” I muttered without any hint of emotion in my voice.I bowed my head and positioned my left hand with my palm facing him. I wrapped his body with black feathers and put him inside my celestial realm along with Archmaster Leonard and Archmistress Demia. Basically, I can’t use my celestial realm in this fight because they will be affected. But that is not a problem because I still have Mammon’s cursed realm and have trained myself to manifest it in the outside world.A tear escaped my left eye as I completely absorbed Raid using Beelzebub’s gluttony. There’s no time for mourning the dead. Vela was right. We are at war. We should not let our emotions get in our way or else our lives might be

CHAPTER LV: TraitorI and Astaroth keep on exchanging blows. The snake on his right hand turned into a long iron rod and he’s using it to counter my attacks. He attempted to thrust his weapon to me but I was able to grab it. However, I immediately loosened my grip on it when its higher tip suddenly turned into a serpent and it tried to bite my arm. I gritted my teeth as I have remembered how it found an opening on me earlier to inflict a poison in my spiritual realm that targeted Mammon.I need to think quickly on how to defeat this filthy demon. I need to find a gap. I stepped backward and jumped meters away from him. “Cancer, please help me bring my enemy down. I’m begging you,” I said mentally. I concentrated and channeled all my divine magic and celestial mana in my weapon.My grace turned back into its former state because Mammon’s curse left it the moment he died. My divine magic also came back to me without a taint of dark ma

CHAPTER LVI: Confusion, Sorrow and Extreme FearMy friends came to me and assisted me to stand up on my feet. I looked at them one by one with a blank expression in my face. The rain is still pouring down from the sky but they didn’t mind if they will be soaked. Their eyes are filled with sorrows. They took me in the shed of the viewing deck of the arena while my mind was so pre-occupied by multitude of thoughts. I don’t know but every time I remember Astaroth saying that there was a traitor among us, there was a voice in my head telling me that I should not trust them.That demon was sincere and serious that time when he warned me so I have this intuition that he was telling the truth. And it frustrates me that I wasn’t able to know that d*mn truth. Though I know I wasn’t ready for it. I might collapse if I learn that one them is going to betray me. But it’s bugging in my head especially that truth is concerned about Mother Ariana’s

CHAPTER LVII: Demons and DeceptionsThe fires are dancing around the fighting arena and they created small dotted flares that sparkled on the night sky like what can be witnessed in fireworks display during New Years on Earth. The view was mesmerizing, but, I realized it’s not the time to be amazed.“Before we begin the next bout, allow me to introduce to you first the fighters,” the announcer started. And without further much a do, he began with the introduction of his demon lord.“Hailing from the side of the revered demon kings, we have King Satanel or also known as Satan in other regions of the demon realm,” he loudly uttered and there was a bliss in his voice as he mentioned the name of his respected demon lord. That name… it’s enough to inflict fear in my whole system. Cold sweats started to form on my forehead not because of the temperature of the surrounding but because of the agony within me.According t

CHAPTER LVIII: The Whole TruthSilence reigned between us. It seemed like we were observing who will attack Vela first. Should I move now? Not yet. I should carefully think of a way on how to take her down. She’s a formidable magic knowing that she can gather endless supply of mana from different timelines.“What are you waiting for, Celestial Twelve? She is outnumbered so there’s no doubt you could defeat her. Just believe in yourselves,” Goddess Lumia cheered us.“Wait a minute, Goddess Lumia. Before we start the fight, can someone make a detailed explanation or narration on how Vela ended up as our enemy? And what about Caya? We thought Vela is just an altered ego of her? Besides, you called her as your daughter earlier, Goddess Lumia. So how and why things turned this way? Because no matter how I comprehend the whole situation and how I try to untangle the events, everything is beyond my understanding,” Glade asked out of

CHAPTER LIX: The Dawn of the Final BattleI can’t move my whole body. Even my eyeballs but I can still see those in front of me and can still hear what’s happening in our surroundings. It’s like my body had frozen but my mind is still functioning.My thoughts came into halt when Lotus’ voice echoed in my head. He’s using thought communication through his Mind magic. “Vela, as we all know, has the ability to control and stop time. She can slow and fast forward events, too. She can also gather mana from different timelines, making her supply of mana limitless. However, she doesn’t have the ability to stop some of our bodily functions with her Time Magic. That’s why I can still use my mind to connect with you,” he started. He was about to speak again but was taken aback when he received a fatal blow from her sister, making Lotus groaned mentally.“I know you were using your Mind Magic to devise a pla

CHAPTER LX: Divine Blessing“DON’T die yet, Cerina. I still want you be alive and watch as I make your friends, your family, disappear in front of you.” That voice… that voice characterized by pure wickedness woke me up. My hands were shaking as I groped my stomach. I was surprised when I realized my wounds wasn’t there anymore. What did she do?“I reversed time, Cerina, to heal your wound. I came to realize that it was an easy death for you so I just have let you experience how we are very far different from each other in terms of power and magic. And I just want you to feel how painful to watch your treasured people meet death as how painful it was to watch my sister die. This is just a little piece of advice, Cerina, you can’t defeat me no matter what you do so give up already,” she hissed on my ears. I grunted as my scalp hurts. She’s tweaking my hair that hard, forcing me to look at one direction. My eyes beca

CHAPTER LXI: Miracles Do HappenI need to find a gap; to create an opening. But I don’t have yet any idea how to do that to her. I’ll just keep on attacking her until I find out her weakness.“Celestial Light Magic: Golden Cannonade!” Small dotted golden lights gathered on my hands extending up to my arm. They formed two golden cannons worn by my hands and I showered Vela with hundreds of golden cannonballs. I flew around her while still heavily firing her with balls of light barrage. But all my efforts seemed futile because none of my attacks had reached her because she vanished them quickly by reversing the time upon them just before they could hit her. There were always blue transparent clocks that appeared whenever my cannonballs got near to her--their hands moved in a counterclockwise direction.I admit, she is a formidable foe. I can’t beat her just by keeping up with her like this. I may be fast because of my magic attribute
