Chapter 592 Desperation
"Master said that you are his sister. Come with us and meet your father!" Kaeldur approached Sabrina somewhat calmly as he looked at the woman who didn't seem even remotely related to Nial.
They were totally different, whether it was their demeanor, their powers, or their attitude. But that was to be expected since Sabrina and Nial were not related by blood.
Kaeldur knew that Sabrina had yet to get to know this little piece of information. She was oblivious to the truth, though that didn't matter to Kaeldur, whose mind was filled with other things. He was more worried about Nial than Sabrina, especially because Nial was the only reason for Kaeldur to bother about Sabrina's existence in the first place.
"At least the Devil Roc was with him…better than nothing…I guess…" He mumbled to himself while he looked at all the other Devils, including Ryu. They were unsure of what to do and where to go. Without a given order and Nial by their side, they felt as if they had free reign and were allowed to do whatever they desired.
While that was great, they felt as if something was missing that something was not right. It made them feel incomplete and as if they had lost a limb.
Thus, one of the Devils had to take charge of the others, even if it was just until Nial would return. It was better to do something rather than remain idle, or panic. Nial was not dead and everyone was certain that he would return sooner or later.
At least that was what everyone was hoping for, even if they had no idea where exactly Nial ended up.
While Kaeldur was slowly taking charge of the Devils, and also bringing Sabrina along with Mathias back to the Orion Shelter which required them to travel several months, Nial's situation was entirely different.
His range of perception and Mana Sense were fully unleashed, devouring the purest mana he had ever sensed before. He replenished his used up dark energy as quickly as possible but the amassed energy within his Heart of Darkness, and the crimson moonlight, which he had used up, wasn't getting easily replenished either.
The moonlight was slowly piling up inside him, telling him that a moon was somewhere close. As for his Essence of Darkness, Nial was not sure how long it would take to replenish it but he had other things to pay attention to.
His surroundings were so cold that his body began to freeze. His hands and feet were already numb and he had to coat them with darkness before he expelled the cold from his body. Time passed slowly until Nial realize that they were actually in an open space.
A planet was nearby and he could sense that Bella was already fleeing to the planet. Flying through space was not much of a problem at their cultivation rank, but Bella's Divine Transformation was slowly wearing off. She was much weaker than before and had noticed that Nial was close on her heels.
She had no idea what part of the universe they had been transported to, but with Nial behind her, there could hardly be anything worse.
Charging to the planet, it was only a matter of time before she felt the gravitational force of the planet weighing down on her. In no time, her body turned into a comet that shot down to the ground. She was breathing heavily and was trying to calm down. However, her mind didn't allow her to calm down.
On the contrary, the more she thought about her current situation, the worse things turned out for her. Bella's chest heaved up and down from her rapid breathing, her heart was palpitating quickly and she was having a hard time forming a coherent thought.
When she was about to crash into the ground, Bella slowed down. She glanced around to see whether there were any ferocious beasts or some members of a foreign race who would launch a surprise attack on her. When she was positive that no such thing would happen, she sat down on the ground afterward. Her body was trembling violently and it temporarily resisted her urge to go somewhere.
Continuing to breathe heavily, she looked up at the sky, hoping to never see Nial descending near her. However, it was just when she diverted her gaze that she saw something, or rather someone emerging from within her shadows.
Bella jumped up from the ground with a scream and she began to flee. However, there was no escape for her. She was in a weakened state now that her Divine Transformation had worn off, but to her grave misfortunes, Nial was far from weakened. He was in his peak state, and further strengthened knowing that he was about to receive the revenge he had sought for an eternity.
His entire body exuded the same terrifying darkness as before. The hands that had turned into claws were enlarged through the manifestation of darkness that shrouded them.
"How does it feel?" Nial asked, his eerily calm voice ringing in Bella's ears, causing her hair to stand up on its end.
"W-What…are y-you talking about?!" She shouted out in a shrill voice that was like the chirping of birds to Nial.
"How does it feel knowing that I will kill you?"
Nial's words played in a loop through Bella's mind over and over again. Her expression turned even paler than before if that was even possible to begin with and she swallowed her saliva.
When Nial took a step closer to her, she would try to take a step back. Bella never gave up running away, but she quickly noticed that Nial was still much stronger than her, even if he might be bleeding from several wounds and that he was actually much weaker than before.
Darkness oozed out of Nial, and vines formed out of it. The vines shot forward and coiled around Bella's legs. She fell to the ground and was pulled toward Nial, while desperately trying to anchor her fingers in the wet earth beneath her, digging into the mud viciously.
However, nothing worked out. She ended up at Nial's feet who towered above her with nothing but coldness and hatred to offer her.
"We…We need to work to-gether…you need me to survive…you don't even know where we are…if you want the Spectran to come and help, I need to stay alive!!" Bella struggled to speak as she was desperately trying to find a way to change Nial's mind and avoid her death.
But Nial just smiled in return.
"I really don't care where I am. Even if I've landed in a different Universe, I can find a way back to Jundra….don't worry, since that is not something you will have to bother about…" Nial spoke, quietly and coldy as the darkness of his right claw expanded rapidly.
"And now…die!"
