Ascension of the Nephilim

Kyros had returned to his armies and had a very serious expression.

"Mechiel! Listrel! Lea! Unleash your powers! We have to fight to the strongest of our capabilities and get to Serpent Pond quickly! Aubrey! Rivarridon! On the arrival of the Rocs, select some of your strongest warriors and prepare to have their head out to Serpent Pond. Lea, you will be in charge of this army! Calaminus! Activate the Haste spell! Everyone, I want teams to feed the Altar of Calaminus quickly. Keep adding Brimstone to those Energy Formation Circles to keep the Haste spell up!" Kyros gave a series of orders.

Everyone was stunned as they could see the urgency in Kyros\'s eyes. His previous attitude of calmness was no more.

"What happened?" Calaminus asked as he began to cast a mass Haste Spell which increased the speed of the front lines.

"Hems is here."

"Hems?! Didn\'t his soul dissipate...! Oh! That\'s it! Where do souls go when it is destroyed? We now have an answer! It is purged to nothingness in a world of Brimstone!" Calaminus exclaimed.

"Exactly! But when Hems was sent here, and the moment I arrived, it created another change! He was freed! The brimstone beast from he had disappeared, and he turned back into a man! The power of Mysterion was in him through the Coven link we shared!"

"That\'s amazing! If his original Brimstone Beast form were killed, it would have been impossible to resurrect him as his soul would be drawn into another beast!"

"It seems that we have to thank the goddess Fate for that! I now have a chance! I won\'t ever lose any of my men in this timeline! None of my closest allies will die! I swear on it through Mysterion!" Kyros declared and even used Words of Power to say it!

The form of the Light and Shade appeared once more, and Kyros prepared to fight.

"Kyros. You\'re too hasty." Listrel spoke.

"Your action will cause Histerion to be curious. You said he\'s back!"

"He is already curious about my actions and has guessed that I want to reach Serpent Pond as quickly as possible. So don\'t worry. We just have to go there as fast as we can. Listrel, join me." Kyros ordered as he took the hands of Mechiel and the trio began to fly to the sky.

"A combined attack?" Listrel could guess what was going on.

"I know you\'ve been hiding it. But you awakened the power of Earth, right?" Kyros called out to Listrel.

"There is no escaping your eyes, is there?" Listrel chuckled.

"I didn\'t mean to deceive you. On the contrary, I planned to give you a pleasant surprise."

"I know. I would have let you keep it and surprised me with your progress, but we don\'t have that luxury." Kyros explained.

"What do we do?"

"Through Mechiel and me, we can wield the power of Astra. The power to create a star. I harness the Celestial Code, and we attract the elements, and I use it to form Astra\'s power. But that attack requires tremendous energy, and I would need my mage team, descendants, or inheritors of Astra\'s name. So instead of that, we\'ll focus on creating the star\'s core. There is enough Brimstone energy here already to create the core."

"Wait...! You\'re crazy! I know your plan! You want to create a black hole!"

"Yes." Kyros didn\'t hide it.

"It\'s supposed to be one of my aces in the next battle, but I don\'t have a choice. An ally of mine who died in that world is here! It\'s a miracle! No matter what, I must save him!"

"Is he as strong as Mechiel or me?"

"No. He doesn\'t have your potential."

"Then heed my words, Kyros. Let him die. You\'ve already done your best to save him this time! But you cannot go and show this power now! Especially when you can use it at a more strategic time! We are still fighting in a world doomed to end! So you have to consider the big picture!"

"I am considering the big picture! I have to save him! That is the point of my power! Mysterion! The power to hide! This battle is a battle that will require generals and armies to fight End! There are some I can sacrifice, but my generals and lieutenants have to go with me! If I can\'t hide them and send them to that time where Beginning and End will fight, we lose!" Kyros countered.

Listrel was silenced at Kyros\'s answers.

"Ah! Whatever. You are Mysterion, and you are smart. I just hope that this isn\'t personal."

"It is personal. I won\'t ever lose a close ally! Whether it is Mechiel or the least of my Covens! Listrel. You and Lea are now part of my allies. The two of you can fight and wage war when we get back. But I won\'t ever let go of you two. When I call, you shall answer. And when trouble comes knocking down over you, even if it\'s an Ancient God like Histerion, I will fight to protect you!" Kyros declared.

Lea and Listrel were startled at Kyros\'s declaration.

Mechiel felt a bit of jealousy, but she still smiled.

"Listrel. Let\'s do this. That Hems is a great hero. Even I want to save him and meet him. I never did. But I can tell. He is part of the core team of Kyros, just as you two are now." Mechiel explained.

"...Fine. Let\'s do this!" Listrel finally agreed.

"Wield the power of the Earth. We will call on the power of Astra. And the Gravity of the Earth will be the channeling power."

Suddenly, Swords of Light appeared and dove down to create numerous energy conversion circles on the ground below them.

"Fill it with Brimstone! Quick!" Kyros ordered, and the soldiers acted.

"Lea! Aubrey! Rivarridon! Keep the Brimstone Beast distracted! The moment we begin this, Histerion may act and force these creatures to fight."

"Leave it to us," Lea answered.

Finally, the trio began to harness the power.

Everyone felt the fluctuations and was amazed as the powers of Fire, Light, Darkness, Brimstone, and the power of the Earth gathered. With these elements, Kyros began to do the impossible. He was creating a star!

The Code of Astra was studied, and Kyros had already learned the basics. But now, he was trying something that even he wasn\'t confident in being able to achieve.

The moment they gathered the energy, the Brimstone Beast suddenly began to attack with great intensity, and beasts of terrifying powers emerged.

p Lea was covered with the power of darkness and water and rushed out to meet the monstrosities that formed.

The energy continued to gather and form as the three combined their powers.

As they did, Kyros then sensed some powers off in the distance.

It was as if several powerful creatures were looking at him.

"Okto-Khefali." Kyros frowned as he could sense the power and tell that he has somehow reformed into a powerful beast.

"Your day will come." Kyros focused on the task at hand and gathered the power.

"Listrel! Add your power to it! Harness gravity!"

"You say it like it is such an easy thing! I can do earth, but Gravity is not that simple!" Listrel cursed but then began to search for the earthen power within her. The energy conversion circles allowed her to commune with the power of Earth under her.

"Planesworld! You have suffered the burns of this beast! Fight with us just as Vey fought with us!" Kyros called out and used his Heretics skills and even charm.

At that point, the surge of power increased, and Listrel found it.

Job Acquired.

Gravity Knight

---

Listrel was among the high-borns of the Planeworld, and they naturally had a superior notification system compared to those on the Lowlands. Hers quickly identified a mythical job that has yet to appear in the Planes World! She saw it and smiled.

The leaf in her was helping her harness gravity.

She poured out her power, and a small dark ball was formed in between the three of them that continued to hold hands.

"Continue," Kyros ordered as he let go of the two and wielded the black ball.

The powers of Kyriachos appeared as Kyros imitated the gravity spells of Martha and began to increase the amount within the small black ball.

Finally, Kyros was satisfied as he commanded the two to stop.

Listrel and Mechiel suddenly fell as they were drained of energy.

"Perfect! With this, we can move faster and save Serpent Pond!" Kyros took the ball and flew towards the armies.

When he reached deep into the millions of Brimstone beast, he threw it and retreated with all of his might.

BOOM!

A tremendous suction force appeared, and a massive black ball that rippled out tremendous darkness exploded and devoured everything within ten kilometers.

Millions of Brimstone Beast were gone just like that.

Kyros fell from the sky and was falling into the army of men who were still fighting the Brimstone beasts at the front lines.

Lea caught him.

"...Lea. bring the rain."

"I know. I\'ve been doing it since you left. Leave everything to me." Lea answered as Kyros fainted.
