Will of chaos



The defensive battle has been more than difficult as I discovered some pretty obvious serious issues, at least they are obvious now. 

After defeating the Demonic Dragon little by little more and more people gathered near the World Tree, all knowing the importance of defending the center of magic being the central link of large-scale magic ritual balancing the energies of the environment. 

Thanks to this ritual, everyone could fight without being restricted by the environment and without losing their main senses, but defending Silvia became more and more difficult. 

I thought that only that Demon Dragon could open those gates of pure darkness by bringing out more of these gray-skinned we cans, but it seems I was mistaken, these gray-skinned people can also open these gates of darkness, but unlike that Demon Dragon who could open several of these gates at the same time, these people could only open 1 or 2 at the same time, which is not saying much considering the large number of them, so hundreds of these gates were still being opened by over 1000 of these gray people. 

With more and more enemies appearing, it was becoming very difficult to fight defensively as our energy was depleting as time passed. 

Because of the enemy numbers that never seem to decrease, we are not able to approach the places where the gates of shadows are invoked, not to mention that these are not monsters guided by pure instinct, they are "people" or at least something similar to that people who are capable of thinking and organizing themselves for a fight of this scale. 

In total I spent 1 hour walking until I got close to the World Tree where Silvia was, then I spent 40 minutes or so in battle with the Demonic Dragon, and after that I've been fighting for 5 hours straight against enemies that heal instantly from any damage they didn't whether coated with Aura, Holy Power or Authority. 

They don't seem to be able to use magic and don't have ranged attack skills, in fact, they seem to have very few skills if they are skills at all. 

They have strong and resistant bodies, they can all use their Auras in combat and they have the same type of Aura, they are all based on the characteristic of corruption and because they are similar they can merge with each other to pressure everyone here. 

The worst is the presence of this Evil God, I can feel this presence interacting with the Aura of these "people" all the time, but even knowing that doesn't change anything since I don't know why or how to avoid it. 

"Érica, now!" (I) 

"< Flame of the Fallen: Field of Fallen Beasts >" (Érica) 

The fight could not contain like this, Irina being a barrier specialist was the one who put the most effort into this battle since she arrived, even if she drinks my blood there is a limit to how much her body is able to regenerate per day before being overloaded, she reached this limit and fell. 

When her barriers fell over 60 people were fatally injured and 7 died from relying on the falling barriers. 

Irina was left in the center of the defensive perimeter where Silvia was, there were others who were also unable to fight there. 

I myself have been fatally wounded more than once, but I'm not something easy to destroy or kill, even 9 Swords piercing my body from all directions wasn't enough to kill me, but they already know that their goal was to corrupt me with its dirty energy and at that moment I felt the presence of the Evil God strengthen these effects, but luckily my Authority took care of this filth by expelling it from my body. 

I know things can't stay like this, but we don't have time to think, many of these creatures are difficult to fight, so I made Érica stay behind preparing with this magical ritual. 

Soon Érica's body is enveloped in flames that started out red, then turned purple, and ended up turning white at the end as if the other two were being consumed from the inside out. 

Those white flames enveloping Érica took the shape of a bird of flames, it was just a silhouette without many distinguishing features other than the shape of a bird that flapped its wings causing the flames to spread in all directions like tsunamis of white flames, walls of dozens of meters made of white flames sweeping everything in its path. 

These flames passed through the more than 800 people defending Silvia without doing anything, but the enemies were covered in flames burning their bodies. 

Even that didn't stop them from continuing the fight, dark energy pouring out of their bodies to fight the flames that were destroying them, meanwhile, they fought even more fiercely as if trying to take someone with them. 

These flames spread for hundreds of meters and stayed on the ground without going out, from the bodies of those who were dying, both dead allies and our dying enemies, various types of beasts emerged made entirely of these white flames and most of them were wolves, with the second most being birds and last being Fire Elemental-like creatures. 

These creatures were a welcome ally but at the cost of Érica, who became the center of the magical ritual that keeps this area aflame. 

I look around confirming that the situation is under control and I nod to Diana who was in her direwolf form fighting alongside Ibuki, I run towards her and jump towards her while positioning myself to the opposite direction, soon Diana uses her big paw to send me flying in one direction faster than my wings could do. 

On the way some enemies managed to act to stop me, their way of doing this was more than strange as if they were following something trained many times, they started to attack me from angles that would make me deviate my trajectory that was in the direction of one of the gates of darkness. 

"< Blade Cyclone >" (I) 

I used a wind magic while rotating my body that created a cyclone of wind that cut everything it hit while also serving as a barrier to keep them at bay, even though it was a simple magic it was still effective. 

When I got to the other side, I was already being attacked from all directions, so I fell into the shadow of the first enemy that attacked. 

But when I step out of the shadow I wasn't alone, the shadow expands under my control so I fly out of the expanding shadow with a Bone Dragon right behind with my daughter on top of her head. 

"< Earth Giant's Tomb >" (I) 

"< Breath of Death >" (Hellyos) 

"< Soul Eater >" (Hela) 

As soon as I left I used a large scale spell as I had no other allies nearby, this spell created an 800 meter deep pit over a wide area and filled with large spikes of sharp rocks. 

My attack was followed by a breath attack from Hela's Familiar that caused total death and body disintegration of the enemies, this defeated those enemies at the same time as just freeing those corrupted Souls. 

It was at this moment that Hela used her Necromancer magic to extract something from her Familiar, a part of her Familiar's Soul leaves her body as if she was getting up, it was just the half-transparent Dragon's head, it even looks like a two-headed Dragon now. 

Soon this semi-transparent head grows 5 times its size while changing slightly with two more horns growing and the bone structure itself changing to something more aggressive with thick purple lines forming patterns. 

When this large Phantom skull opens its jaws it feels like hundreds of eyes open inside its jaws just before a purple vortex forms drawing all these Corrupted Souls as well as others that were here from the beginning out of these gates of darkness. 

I noticed a red and black glow appear inside the transparent skull, but I left that for later when I had something more important to take care of. 

I look around until I see where the gate of darkness was, as I wave one hand creating lines from my fingers that stretch several meters in less than 1 second before leaving these lines as rigid and sharp as a sword, I used my Holy Power and Aura on the lines when I make several slashing moves destroying the gate of darkness. 

The forced destruction created an explosion that I didn't expect, but to protect myself I make a barrier with my Aura in front of me and it seems that Hela's Familiar managed to protect her. 

Soon I looked at the other missing gates of darkness, all of which were being more heavily guarded now. 

But when I was close to trying to destroy one more now that I'm close, suddenly space begins to crack and a ray of pure darkness pierces through the barrier in the middle of the World Tree while ripping through space, the energies that were previously in order now they are even more volatile than they were when I first entered the forest. 

The ritual owner I was trying to keep safe with Silvia at the center was destroyed when the ray of pure darkness passed, the only happiness I have was several Auras with characteristics of nature emerge from the same hole and spread out balancing once again the various energies of the environment, the collision of these two opposite things made everyone except me and my Familiars fall to the ground, it also made the gates of darkness explode with the energy waves that the collision of these opposite things made. 

I had nothing to do about it, even though I wasn't negatively affected by those two things, I still couldn't get the trapdoor to move, that's when an Aura of pure Death erupted as everything returned to silence as the hole in the barrier in the middle of the World Tree was repaired, but the tear in the sky was still there and looked very dangerous now. 

"I won't miss this opportunity..." (I)
