Ascension of the Nephilim

The Coin of Mammon was confused when he heard the laughter deep inside of him.

"How?!" The Coin of Mammon cursed and used his powers to send his soul from inside his belly.

The moment he saw the being deep inside the black hole, he shivered.

What was at the very center of the black hole was not a radiant being of light.

It was a terrifying devil standing in the darkness.

"Who...?!"

"I have to thank you..." Nightwing smiled.

"You see, no matter what, I couldn\'t bring out the power of Tyrannus. It\'s very... picky, you see. It rebels and doesn\'t want to reveal more of its power even though it is mine. But now, in this place where a Coin of Mammon using Greed to devour me, it has aroused its anger. Son of Greed, do you know who gave birth to Mammon of the Phaulos Fallen? You are not the only creature that can assimilate what it eats. Dragons can. You and dragons come from the same father. And so... when an unfilial son dares to bear its fangs to its father, it enraged the power in me."

"Tyrannus! Impossible!"

Nightwing\'s form grew angry and the blood and power that Nightwing acquired from Angelian and from other dragons that Nightwing did not know.

"Did my idiotic self devour a Wyrm? Strange. This also feels like a Thane Dragon. But I also have memories of all forms of dragons... Just who did I eat?" Nightwing pondered.

The growing power was building as the Coin of Mammon felt a great rage bursting out of Nightwing.

"Die!" The Coin of Mammon released his Cardinal power and made it collapse within as the power of devour hungrily tried to pull in Nightwing.

Nightwing laughed and countered with his own magic.

BOOM!

Gravity surged out of Nightwing and the darkness of Kyriachos exploded out.

"A Fallen! Lord Fallen! Forgive me!" The Coin of Mammon saw the real form of Nightwing and was horrified.

But Nightwing had an amused expression. The magic he released in his current form somehow allowed him to harness magic easier.

"Hm? Magic? This dragon form can do magic? Did I devour a magic dragon? Was I Little Jackie Paper?" Nightwing wondered.

The rage of Tyrannus increased and a faint crown appeared over Nightwing and the ethereal spirit of a gigantic being that looked like a dragon appeared behind him but had a humanoid form.

"What being is this?!" The Coin of Mammon could not even identify the powerful avatar that appeared in front of him. All he could feel was exceeding terror.

"Master! Master!" The soul began to call out as he used his power to alert the Fallen Spawn.

"Useless. What do you think I was doing before I revealed myself? This entire valley has a barrier of Mysterion. You won\'t be able to call out to your master as I have hidden you from him!" Nightwing laughed as the darkness grew.

"I couldn\'t have released this power outside. But here, inside you, no one can see or sense this power emerge from me! Tyrannus was the father of dragons and the father of all who devours. You think yourself a big fish, but there\'s always a bigger fish!" Nightwing laughed as the avatar behind him opened its mouth and a powerful devouring force erupted out.

Outside, all the fighters charged in and unleashed their strongest attacks.

The Commanders and all the Champions brought out their strongest attacks creating massive explosions that wiped out the Greedlings and struck the Coin of Mammon.

With the battles outside, the Coin of Mammon faced great instability and began to collapse within.

Nightwing laughed as he felt his powers push through. He felt the rising surge of his strength as he reached the peak of Commander level!

"My father will... kill you!" The Coin of Mammon cursed.

"Fool! I AM your father!" Nightwing increased the devouring force to the maximum and the Coin of Mammon began to implode to the inside.

Outside, the survivors saw the massive pig collapsing into itself as its gory flesh was being sucked inside a strange power.

A pained squeal was heard as the pig clumped up into one giant ball of flesh.

And then there was silence. The Greedlings sensed the death of their master and began to scatter.

"Leave no one behind!" Monica shouted

Sherah also fought and Krysta could only follow the orders of the group.

Twenty minutes passed and everyone was massacred.

Nightwing had emerged out of the bloody, and gory ball of the pig and was doused in the pig\'s blood.

As he stood and watched everyone finish the last remnants of the Greedlings.

Nightwing jumped and landed next to where Krysta sat. She was tired and drained and did not have the strength to flee or fight Nightwing.

"I won\'t thank you. I don\'t trust you."

"I noticed. Your brother\'s safe by the way. I hid him far away from here and gave him golems to command." Nightwing laughed.

"A likely story." Krysta cursed.

"Call every one of your teams. We will have to meet with everyone." Nightwing answered as he stood at the center.

Krysta wanted to argue. But she knew that even if she didn\'t call everyone, these people were likely to follow Nightwing.

She obediently followed and everyone who was killing the surviving Greedlings at the different areas of the battlefield all returned.

Nightwing was seated on the ground with his sword stabbing at the ground. With all the blood around him, it was difficult to make out his current appearance.

All the Commanders and Champions lined up and there were a few dozen surviving Captains that stood around Nightwing.

"Relax. I\'ve made a magic barrier around this place. If any of those Greedlings come, I would be alerted. Be at ease and sit down."

At those comforting words, everyone sighed in relief and some even stumbled down as they gave in the exhaustion.

Even the Commanders rested as they sat.

"That\'s better. Easier for me to kill you."

STAB! STAB! STAB! STAB!

Several spikes of blood impaled everyone who Krysta gathered.

They could not even scream as they were killed instantly.

Krysta was horrified at what she saw.

"What are you doing?"

"Killing them. You want me to resurrect your family, don\'t you?" Nightwing laughed.

She was so shocked as she saw all of those who fought by her side die that very instant and turned around to see the reactions of the other survivors. But everyone else had a blank expression.

"They\'re all...!"

"Corpse Puppets. Obviously." Nightwing answered as he released several Wraiths that flew around the area.

"You\'re insane! You demon!"

"Am I supposed to be insulted?" Nightwing laughed as the blood moved out and revealed his current form. His features had turned even more amazing.

His face was like hard rock and many gems seemed to be surrounding his body. Jewels of various colors that Krysta identified as precious stones were all over his body. Carnelian, chrysolite, and emerald seemed to be decorated on his forehead. Turquoise, sapphire, and amethyst could be found spread out on his two arms. Jacinth, agate, and crystal were on his chest, and beryl, lapis lazuli, and jasper were on his legs.

Krysta saw a beautiful monstrosity. It released terror and amazement at the same time.

"Master!" The two women felt weak on their knees as they saw another form of Nightwing.

"Do you girls like it? The form of Tyrannous. I finally awakened his power. But sadly, we cannot relish this yet. Imagine me making a blood clone and each clone assuming a different form. The demon, the angel, and the dragon. Each clone would have a round with you girls."

"You pig!" Krysta roared but the other two turned saw red and began to moan at the thought.

"But let\'s see... my idiotic self left a spell where I could offer a great set of deaths as a sacrifice that will make me stronger. Those wraiths are writing the energy formation circle as we speak. An army of Greedlings, a few Greedlores, and a Coin of Mammon. That\'s not counting all these commanders and champions. This should meet the minimum requirement. The Coin of Mammon was Cardinal after all." Nightwing stood at the very center and his blood created a large writing on the ground with the wraiths acting as important points in the huge spell.

"With this power, I will be able to overcome the curse of those succubi that cannot even be stopped with the power of Mysterion and Oblivion! I offer these armies!" Nightwing roared and a bright red flash appeared in the area and all the dead, excluding the Corpse puppets that Nightwing made all vanished.

The power ripped open a void and sent every single one of the corpses into a different world. As the light dispersed, the entire valley was empty and only Nightwing, the girls, and the corpse puppet remained. Not even a drop of blood from the Greedlings remained.

Nightwing stood and smiled as he saw his spell was successful and closed his eyes to await his reward.

And Nightwing sensed it. A strange vision was shown and he could see a bearded man seated with a crowd of people standing behind him. Right in front of this bearded man was a nameplate. Written on the nameplate were the words \'Chuck Norris\'.

The bearded man smiled and gave Nightwing a hearty thumbs up.

\'Chuck Norris approves.\'

The vision revealed a title and then, the vision disappeared.

Nightwing\'s mouth went ajar as he was shocked at the GIF he saw.

"DAMN YOU, PAST SELF!" He roared in anger.

Meanwhile, far away from the Black Bog Lands, inside Middle, was the Fortress of the Nephilim.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Mezal was amazed at the army of dead creatures appearing one after the other.

"What are these things?!" He cursed.

"I read about them! These are Greedlings!" Demerus Emberdon answered.

"Is it from Kyros?"

"It has to be! The energy I can feel coming from that clump of meat is very powerful! I can sense a terrifying power from it!" Demerus answered.

"It\'s [devour]! The same power that Puff has as a dragon!" Faye answered.

"Wait! Devour?! These creatures release devour?! Then with this... we can make numerous experiments to regain our human form!" Demerus was overjoyed.

"Thank you, Lord Kyros!" The Lich Emberdons praised.

"San Kyu Oni-Chan, Kyros." The Chimera spoke to the side.
