Chapter 1253 Cap 1251: The insect war begins part 5  

Pov Hades:

It has been 3 days since the first battle against the insects and many things have happened, Master Zenos' Wives have joined the battle, Silvia has made a discovery about the planet and our next course of action has already been decided.

"Are you sure you want to be on the front lines?" (I)

"Yes, I make a point of being there, I won't accept a fake walking around with my face." (Haku)

"I never realized that Yntra had achieved success in cloning, it was the main one in our lab when I was hired by her in our universe, but it never worked." (Haku)

"Clearly it works now." (I)

"Magic opened many doors, creating a humanoid body without mutation was complicated in many ways in our universe, but it was possible with years of research." (Haku)

"Creating a body following someone else's genetic code and still trying to maintain the same appearance was much more complicated, Yntra was a unique genius for achieving this, but even she was not able to take care of the brain, the mind was empty, they were just meat dolls with no minds or ability to learn." (Haku)

"They are like homunculi, a manufactured body without a Soul." (I)

"No, homunculi are delicate and their functional minds, even without a Soul, are still useful in many ways, but what we created was very superficial and we never considered Souls." (Haku)

"For all of us, the concept of Aura has always been something ridiculous, even vital energy was just another form of energy that we found in this world, magic is just a way of manipulating energies unique to this world, it can be understood in a certain way, but Souls They are concepts too abstract to be considered true." (Haku)

"That's what you think?" (I)

"Not now, but I thought that way before I was reborn as I am now, thanks to Master Zenos I realize that the true essence is in the Soul while the flesh is just a container, something that can be molded, repaired, and recreated while the Soul in its exist within." (Haku)

"That's why I won't let someone use my appearance and research as their own, they are mocking me and everything that Master Zenos has made me." (Haku)

Since Silvia and Freya managed to talk to the World Tree still resisting inside the planet, Haku finds himself like this, all his anger at the presence of a copy of her acting as if it were the real one.

Another thing we discovered was the creature growing inside the world, a monstrosity of flesh trying to become the Planet itself and the worst of all is that they are succeeding.

They sacrificed the entire population of that planet and the surrounding planets for this, even the planets themselves were robbed of their power leading everyone to their current state, all to create this abomination.

"You can get your copy, but don't forget the plan, I won't be around to help if you fall into a trap." (I)

"I know, there's no need to worry, I won't waste the life Master Zenos gave me." (Haku)

---------------- A few hours after talking to Haku we were leaving a meeting room where the plan was explained once again to everyone, it would be 7 days of combat without rest in enemy territory, it would not be easy even with our plan and we are not able to know how the Apostles of Truth will respond to what we will do.

"Listen, don't stay away from others, make sure you don't worry the Saints, and don't try to come up with anything funny." (Ivan)

"Don't worry, Dad... how many times do I need to tell you that I'm not a child anymore?" (Lyra)

"To me, you will always be my little girl." (Ivan)

"Let's go..." (Cinthia)

"Alright, where's Ragnar?" (Ivan)

"It's just the 2 of us." (Cinthia)

"..." (Cinthia)

"(Leaving these two together is a mistake, but Irius must have his plans.)" (I)

I see the Father and the daughter saying goodbye before each one goes their own way, and then I find Diana and Orion waiting for me, the place we are going to will be one of the worst.

The Space Dragons wait for the groups to gather before opening all the portals at the same time, each group carried a Sacred Crystal made with the blood inside the pool of Master Zenos' statue, a large amount of his Sacred Power is contained in these crystals and one of them is in my hands.

"Aren't you going to talk to the others?" (I)

"I don't need to, everything that had to be said was heard, we know what the others are thinking." (Diana)

"This time we are taking a lot of risks." (I)

"Don't worry, I'll protect you and in return bring me a good beer when we get back." (Diana)

"..." (I)

"Don't worry about her, nothing will happen." (Orion)

"I'm not scared of combat, I'm worried that something bad could happen to anyone during this combat." (I)

"There are no weak people here, killing any of us won't be easy and each one chose to go, so don't worry." (Diana)

"(My concern is for Master Zenos if anyone gets seriously injured from here.)" (I)

"Is everyone ready? So get ready, we are opening the portals and you should be in within 5 seconds!" (Zadiris)

Everyone who was talking remained silent, preparing to run, then Zadiris snapped his fingers, signaling the Space Element Dragons to open the portals at the coordinates chosen for each group.

As soon as a portal appeared in front of me I ran inside with Diana passing by me, Orion staying by my side. As soon as he exits the other side of the teleportation gate, he activates the magic on the Sacred crystal before launching it into the sky as quickly as possible.

I launched the crystal already activating the magic as planned before even noticing the surroundings and when I looked at the sky I realized that the dark clouds in the sky were not rain clouds, they were countless insects flying in swarms changing their direction towards us as if they were ending to notice our presence.

The number of insects was much greater than I expected from the information obtained, this makes it difficult to locate our Targets, but even so, I remain calm, preparing myself for what will happen when I feel my Aura pulsate through the connection with the crystal releasing its power in the sky.

"< Sacred Eclipse Magic: Nightfall Titan >" (I)

"< Consume >" (I)

A magic circle explodes expanding for kilometers as the space around it cracks in the shape of a spider web, the cracks in the space begin to bleed and all this blood gathers in the center of the magic circle forming a red tornado pulling the entire cloud of insects in with the exception of a few hundred that seem to be able to resist.

"I've located it, it's looking at us from dozens of kilometers away, look." (Orion)

"I can take care of her." (Diana)

"I'll go with you, in the meantime take care of what's left Orion, don't let the birth be interrupted, we just need a few minutes." (I)

"< Blood Hunt >" (Orion)

His body was covered by a disappearing red mist as Diana and I ran towards one of our Targets, one of the others must be nearby.

"Don't reveal everything." (I)

"I know." (Diana)

"< Silver Moon Hunting Ground >" (Diana)

Her Authority and Ki form an illusory image of the silver moon behind her, following until we reach the Inseteos.

"< Pressure from the Ruler >" (I)

I use my Aura to give it physical weight by forming a pressure field in front of me in a cone shape, multiple insects being crushed into the ground with only the strong resisting ones still charging at me.

That was when a silver light blinded the surroundings leading to an illusion of a mist-filled night forest with a silver moon in the sky.

Even without seeing it, I knew that Diana would go after the Leader, so I strengthened my arms by going against the strongest insects capable of resisting my pressure.

The first one to appear took my punch head on trying to grab my arm while two others attacked from both sides, I turn my body opening my wings making them go backwards while my tail crosses the ground killing some while hiding for an ambush.

My claws became bigger as I ran through the body of one of them who exploded in front of me followed by dozens of attacks.

"< Blood Extraction >" (I)

They may have resisted the pressure of my Aura, but that doesn't mean that my Aura hasn't invaded their bodies, I use my Aura to take their blood for me ripped from their bodies, even if it's not enough to kill them, it still weakened everyone.

Thanks to that, I ran among them, crushing their weak bodies like flies, no matter the Insect Empress's Aura control or her true strength, when I drew blood from her, most of her vitality came with it.

Suddenly I feel something and look further back, I can feel someone's eyes fixed on me, when they are close to going in that direction I feel a fluctuation in my Aura and I know what that means, Eclipse Titan is not connected to this world and yes to Master Zenos, he won't be as strong as Sakura, but he's still a great force.

"May each of you die!" (I)
