Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Inside the Cthulhuism Society, all the Cthulhus had gathered together, as they sat in a huge, oval living hall. The afternoon sunlight came into the room from the left, scattering across the long table.
All the Cthulhus, sat in 2 rows, were looking at the monitor on the other end of the table.
It was showing the horrible chain of events that happened in the Ender Kingdom’s capital, Monolith City.
Countless dark red arms as tall as the sky looked like giant, oppressing mountains.
The whole living hall was in complete silence.
********
Kovitan Empire
A huge, square water mirror was floating in the sky, on top of the Kingdom, in between the peaks of three mountains.
The water mirror was constructed by a huge amount of clear water and broadcasted the situation in Ender Kingdom, thousands of kilometers away.
Countless citizens of the Kingdom had their heads raised, their gaze firmly fixed on the screen. They prayed, they were in pain, but most of time hold their breath as they waited for the arrival of the end.
It was in their plan to let the others know how cruel and merciless that Obscuro Society was.
At one of the small buildings in the Palace District.
Sofea, and her sister Danielle, were doing some gardening in the garden. She was in a white dress, and she had a pot of water in her hand as she watered the flowers. Her gaze was also on the giant mirror up in the sky.
The two sisters kept looking at the situation within the water mirror.
There were ma.s.ses of dark red arms, and the unending cries of citizens gravely injured. It was like a mountain of trash piled together as they ran away from the kingdom in fear.
The earth would occasionally tear apart and swallow the crowd.
A few people tried to maintain order, but were immediately torn apart by the wolf type totems summoned by the Obscuro Society. Those totem users who were able to fend for themselves were surrounded by multiple strong empowered totems.
The totem users of the Obscuro Society were merciless, as they slaughtered and murdered the people escaping from the Monolith City.
On the other screens were the battles between the remaining totem users from different countries and the empowered totems from the Obscuro Society. No one seemed to have the upper hand; the quant.i.ty of the empowered totems were far too great. A majority of the most elite totem users had entered the Eternal Night Palace, and had yet to come out.
The explosions in the town, the guttural roars of creatures and cries of dying citizens all joined and continued a symphony of destruction across the whole city.
The Monolith City had become a battlefield overflowing with blood.
"Sister…" Danielle hugged her sister Hathaway tightly.
"It’s going to be okay… We’re inside the Ultimate Protection... " Hathaway tried her best to smile.
However, the countless red hands had, indeed, faltered her heart. She found it impossible to believe what she had just said.
No one could be sure that the Ultimate Protection would be able to defend against that terrifying strength.
**********
At the peak nearby the Kingdom, there was a white manor that was recently built.
On the balcony outdoors.
Emin was holding onto a wooden crutch, as he looked at the water mirror in the sky quietly. There were a few disciples standing behind him, watching quietly as well.
"Teacher…"
A man voiced out softly from behind.
"We can do nothing but wait." Emin replied softly.
"h.e.l.lgate of the Obscuro Society is simply too powerful…" He looked at the water mirror. He could feel the overwhelming power, even though it’s so far away.
The stronger the totem user, the more they understood just how powerful one needed to be to create such a scene.
"The Obscuro Society will definitely eliminate any forces that pose threat to them. They will definitely come after us!"
"We still have brother Garen! With him and the Ultimate Protection, we will definitely be fine!!"
"Yes! We still have a chance, since we still have the Ultimate Protection and the Big Four!"
The disciples" voices kept coming from behind and yet Emin still lowered down his head. Deep down they knew that h.e.l.lgate was the strongest since the death of Phiroth.
Since the Obscuro Society had directed the big turmoil of the aberrated beings, no one was fond of them, and in fact was filled with hatred.
Many people had lost their families, relatives, and their peaceful lifestyle because of them.
If the Obscuro Society were to succeed…
*******
The sky was trembling.
In the sky of Ender Kingdom, countless giant dark red hands pierced through the black clouds.
Arcs of white lightning flashed within them.
Countless of dark red arms pierced into the clouds as if they were pillars supporting the sky.
"All shall return… All shall return…"
A song could be faintly heard in the sky, spreading across Monolith City, and then the Ender Kingdom. The melody travelled through the air, across oceans, and even into the Western Continent.
The whole world had been instantaneously filled with the same melody.
Everyone in every country could hear its faint notes, like someone singing. The song carried with it a sad air about itself.
The black rain started to pour onto the ground.
The people around the Monolith City raised their heads to look at the forest of arms that pierced through the clouds.
The black rain descended upon the land, dying them in the same shade of black.
The rain was like oil, sticky and smelly, just like fresh blood.
In the sky, a crack of pure, white clouds appeared.
The pure white light pierced through the black clouds like an arrow, as it shone onto the dark red hands.
A huge circular door of light slowly appeared above the forest of red arms, supported by them.
The door was carved with scrawls of symbols and textures. The white gold flowery texture of carvings depicted nature in its many forms; in the form of mountain valleys, rivers, oceans, forests, snowy, mountain capped peaks mountains and many more. As one looked at it, it was as if it weren’t a motionless picture. The picture was moving, alive, just like mother nature herself.
A mirror as clear as gla.s.s was in the center of the door, but it was dark, and nothing was reflected off its surface.
The innumerable, dark red hands reached and held onto the door, before they collectively pulled on it from the sky. The melody that floated across the land had come from this very door.
"The Door to Heaven…"
Under this door, and above the b.l.o.o.d.y Monolith City, a bald man in black robes was levitating among several white hot air balloons.
His silver skin was rather dim under the white light, as he stared at the giant white door with his silvery eyes and smiled a smile of satisfaction.
"Finally… Finally I’ve succeeded.."
At this moment, viscous blood flowed from the red arms up to the door.
The sea of blood pushed h.e.l.lgate upwards to the mirror, getting closer, and closer...
Boom!!
A layer of blue light exploded from the surface on the red sea, and halted its movement.
A mouthful of fresh blood came out from Goth’s mouth, outside the city. Goth, who had just entered the middle fifth form had instantly degraded to the elementary tier. As the Black District’s core inside him exploded, his strength instantly dropped by half.
Queen Earnest, to one side, raised the Rainbow District’s core up high as she walked slowly towards the sea of blood.
She crushed the green core in one swift movement.
Boom!!
The sea of blood that was climbing up to the door was once halted again. The layer of blue light shattered and disappeared.
h.e.l.lgate stared down coldly and raised his hand.
Queen Earnest was impacted by something invisible and was sent out flying like a ragdoll. She landed tumbled about before coming to a halt. A simple attack from him had caused a grave injury on her, and blood started to flow out from her body.
"No!!" A green light came from behind and landed beside Earnest.
The Green Dragon Swordman kneeled down and cradled Earnest in his arms.
The sky was then covered in a layer of a pure, blue net, and countless huge symbols were blinking within it. The huge blue net had separated the sea of blood and the Door to Heaven; a terrifying power blasted to wind and surged out in all directions. Not a single survivor in the vicinity could open their eyes, and they fell lower and huddled their bodies when the wind blew.
"The world!" h.e.l.lgate raised both of his hands up as he shouted.
The sea of blood trembled.
"The world!!"
He raised his head as if he were trying to shout with all his might.
A circle of blood appeared in the sky.
"The world!!!"
h.e.l.lgate’s roar masked over the mysterious holy music.
The blood gathered together, and gushed upwards.
The sound of a huge impact reverberated through the land
The blue net was torn apart, and completely drowned by the sea of blood.
h.e.l.lgate’s face turned pale. It was only natural, as he was going against two major district’s energies that had been acc.u.mulated for countless years. There were also the energies from the Heirlooms, and countless of totem users. In addition, there was also the secret battle against the King of Ender and the series of major battles that followed, and also the formation to obtain full control over the Eternal Night Palace. He had also sacrificed countless of lives to pull out the Door to Heaven. Even if he was the strongest totem user in history, he wasn’t able to resist the damage, as injury after injury started to appear within his body, at the same place where Phiroth hit him.
He raised his head as his eyes turned red.
The sea of blood behind him increased picked up speed as it pushed him to the Door to Heaven.
"The world!!!"
He roared!
Kachak… Boom!!
The mirror in the center of the Door to Heaven shattered.
The holy music stopped instantly.
On the peak of a mountain, far away, the Cthulhu King, clad in a white robe, opened one of his red eyes.
Within an active volcano, a single head could be seen bobbing above the lava. It was the Divine G.o.d Palace Master. The scorching hot lava flowed on his body, like springtime dew on a leaf at dawn.
Under the abyss in the ocean, Garen, who was covered in poison and ice, slowly had his eyelids part. Krak! A fine, thin line cracked its way down the ice.
The world, was changing.
