Ascension Of The Nephilim Chapter 158
Advertisement
To fully cloak one's self was nearly impossible to achieve among cultivators that were below Saint level.
And yet, the Nephilim was able to do it! It was practically perfect! All traces of the Nephilim vanished.
"Paladin Assassin?! To think that someone as righteous as you would end up using sneak attacks!" The Blood Calamity cursed.
She used all of her powers to detect.
The scent of Kyros had vanished. The Blood Calamity had a tremendous sense of smell that allowed her to smell creatures that were even a kilometer away. And yet, she couldn't even find a whiff of Kyros the moment he turned invisible.
"Where is he? How did he mask his scent? Is it through his holy powers? Or is it the darkness?" The Blood Calamity's expression grew sour by the second. Finally, she closed her eyes and tried to search for Kyros's location through another means.
She began to search for traces of divine energy that Kyros was releasing had also vanished. And this was even more peculiar. When Kyros released his Holy energy, the Blood Calamity could constantly sense it and feel a painful, stinging sensation.
"It's not here! How is this possible? He must have lied to me! He must have used another element! He must be using wind!" The Blood Calamity concluded. It would have been impossible for Kyros to cast Holy Light and have no traces. The Blood Calamity had powerful Soul powers and was quite talented in sensing via the energy being released by his energy.
She channeled magic towards her eyes to see just like the Golems and could detect magic energy through her eyes.
But when she did, there was no trace of any forms of elemental magic.
"This is not magic?!" The Blood Calamity cursed. It was just too bizarre! Even the strongest types of cloak would be detected through this kind of sight. And even if she won't be able to see Kyros's movements, the ripple of magic that moves through the wind should be visible!
She used her other senses and extended the blood in her body to create a mist nearby. This way, any movements happening within the radius of her powers would be detected.
A faint red cloud covered her, And he was slowly expanding the blood. Seconds passed, and nothing happened. But the silence only caused the Blood Calamity to be more and more cautious.
Se had suffered so much from Kyros.
When she first attacked her thinking, her illusions finally took root, but she received a powerful attack that caused her to lose three Blood Drops with the concentrated energy of her very soul!
Just when she thought she won from the Dark Maddening, Kyros suddenly erupted his holy energy and damaged her remaining Blood Drops.

And when she was unsealed and thought that Kyros was drained of all energy, Kyros managed to summon the strength to shoot a terrifying holy attack that caused her an arm.
She was so weak that she would be hard-pressed to defeat a level 40 warrior with her current strength.
And with the surging strength of Kyros that allowed him to use more and more of his attacks, the Blood Calamity was wary that if she slips and makes a mistake, she could die.
"If it's a battle of attrition, you underestimate me! I might have lost so much blood, but you underestimate the core of a saint!" The Blood Calamity began to keep his blood mist up and made a circular motion that was slowly expanding it to encompass the area.
"I'll kill you!" The Blood Calamity calmly waited as the blood mist motioned outwards to scan for Kyros.
Meanwhile... In the Nephilim Sealing Temple...
Kyros appeared almost instantly.
He immediately fell down as the teleportation happened.
"..." Calaminus was amazed.
"I thought you were turning invisible!"
"What? Why would I do that? That Blood Calamity is still too strong, and even though I got her arm, my magic pool, force, and source energy wouldn't be able to defeat her anyway! The moment she said that she was unsealed, I knew that teleporting was possible. So I skedaddled out of there." Kyros weakly answered.
He was so exhausted. Once more, he was nearly out of energy.
It was all planned. The moment he was able to devour the arm, Kyros knew that fighting the Blood Calamity would end in his defeat. He had enough strength barely and began to plot his escape.
"So you were planning to leave from the moment you ate the arm?"
"Of course. But I decided to take a little something with me. The truth was, the moment I saw her figure where she had stomps, I knew that she left her wings. Back when I made you use Tackle to raise my hand to shoot the Holy Beam, I already planned on destroying the remaining parts of the Seal in case I can have a shot at stealing those wings." Kyros laughed.
"You mean, you already considered that possibility?! But how? You thought you were going to die and even told me to leave if things got dicey!"
"I was desperate, but that doesn't mean I have to make other preparations. Redirecting my arm after your tackle to hit that seal with Holy Beam didn't cause me much anyway. Back then, I didn't know you could use Time Keeper in that way and assumed that I would meet with Kyriachos again. I didn't know the next steps I could take, but that doesn't mean that I shouldn't maximize the current steps available to me."

Calaminus was amazed.
"Bruh. That was some quick thinking! The Blood Calamity damaged the seal when she forcibly broke out, so you even thought about shooting it down at that critical moment for the future possibility of taking it?"
"Yes. i brought out a shield and intentionally attacked the Blood Calamity in that direction where I could easily defend an attack while allowing myself to be sent flying towards it. However, there was a chance that the wings still had some power that could harm me, so I attacked it first and tried to absorb any remnant Dark or Blood energy."
"Right! The Blood Calamity thought you were trying to increase your energy by drinking more of her blood! Even I believed that!"
"Yup. But I was just playing it safe. I knew that it didn't have any blood or dark energy. The Blood Calamity is a unique being. So if she abandoned her wings, it meant it was something unique and different compared to her other body parts. But still, if she were to detach it, she would naturally take all her blood and dark energy out of these bones."
"You planned to steal it before escaping! But why? Could it be your plan to assimilate with these bones?"
"Yes. Isn't that how some Dark-Dependent races grow powerful? Vampires drink blood, but you told me, some races eat each other to gain not only the power but the bones and organs of their enemies."
"That's true. Since you are a freak, the odds are, you could do that!"
"Even if I can't, I should be able to manipulate it with m dark cloak. I just need to figure more things out.
No wonder you used various skills like Taunt, Deception, and even Acting!"
"It wasn't just that. What do you think she's doing right now?"
"You said you turned invisible... And then you disappeared. You talked about assassinating her! She must be... looking for you!"
"Right. And since I'm not there, she will try harder and expend more and more of her soul. She'll realize what had happened eventually. But she would have expended a lot. That was my goal. She's wingless, depleted of blood and energy. Hopefully, the orcs will be more guarded. I already sent the location to Grugnyr, who is reporting the location of the Blood Calamity. And my Coven will begin attacking orc patrols outside of Airom Logat to make the orcs even more careful. This should buy us some time before the Blood Calamity regains her strength."
"Amazing! Your INT stat clearly isn't just for show! You're like the aspect of wisdom itself!"
"Yeah, about that... I had a talk with Kyriachos. I have so many things to talk to you about... But, Calaminus, is there a god of Wisdom?"
"Hrm? No. There isn't."
"..." Kyros expected this answer.
"Hyperion who severed the universe. Kyriachos created the space and the concept of separation between the severed objects. Every aspect in creation was formed by the Beings that Are. And when you guys came along, you brought other concepts of life. The Beings that Has Come gave various limitations or additions to the reality of this universe. You brought True Time, which is the real passage of time of all creation. Ancient Goddess Fate was also the incarnation of Fate. So why isn't there a God of Wisdom? Before Hyperion severed the universe, shouldn't the concept of wisdom form? If not, how could Hyperion have learned how to cut?" Kyros challenged.
Calaminus was about to answer... When something in his memories was jolted.
"You're... right! That should have happened! And not just wisdom! Thought! Memory! Consciousness! These should have all appeared before the severing of the Universe!"
"Here is my theory... I know my intelligence and wisdom aren't something normal. I found out from Kyriachos that I bear the names of numerous gods because they instilled their power and Code in me. Not in the way Hyperion did, but for Kyriachos's state, he was sealed in me. That's why I bear his name. But in that name, my real mother and father aren't mentioned. Can it be that my real mother, the ones who birthed me, is the God of Wisdom? Is that why her name is not written? Is that why you forgot?"
Calaminus remained silent, and various strange visions began to surface.
"Ugh. Thinking about this hurts my soul!"
"In any case, this proves what Kyriachos told me. You and all the gods and fallen have forgotten about them. My mother could be one of those gods and fallen who are classified as Beings that Were!"
"Beings that Were! That's right! There were stronger gods! Gods above Hyperion... Why did I forget?!"
"Let's talk later. I can see my dad and uncle approaching. And they're... with a Lizard?" Kyros could see the trio approaching on his mini-map and was headed for the Temple's entrance.

Just a Game
“A great corruption is spreading. The people cry out for a savior. For a hero. For YOU! Come join the fight, as the chosen of World Tree! Receive the blessings of the gods, battle fierce monsters, and become the hero you were meant to be, in Arcanum Online!” It was the cheesiest commercial Ethan had ever heard, but the gameplay was enough to draw him - and thousands of others - to the fantasy world of Lazuros. It’s the sort of place that can really draw you in - a huge open world, a deep character customization system, and a feature that makes time pass slower inside the game, extending your limited playtime! It was a little strange, though. As if it was a bit too realistic for a game of swords and sorcery. The NPC’s seemed almost alive, most quests didn’t reset and monsters respawned slowly. Still, for all it’s quirks, it was a good game! Just a game. And nothing more. …right?
