Chapter 13: First Phase—Entering Enemy Territories
3 days after the 'Guardian' had reclaimed their HQ, cargo after cargo of supplies were being transported inside the HQ. The main hall now had changed into a giant construction site, and the thing that is currently being built is a giant portal.
The Nasod Scorpion, Personal Mobile from the 9th Sky Division and Nemesis Remy were lifting the heavy material to put in place, the others connecting the joints together, Chung, Eve and Apple were wandering around while checking their holographic screens for the portal index number. Add stood in front of a big holographic screen with many wires connecting from the projector to the portal, many smaller screens floating around, with Glave standing beside him. The 2 of them were talking to each other with non-understandable language.
"So by putting equation A here, then add the binaries we got equation X, we will get the required number on the travel formula."—Glave said while pointing at the equations on the screen.
"Then divide the result we just got with equation D after multiply it by 4 times the Space-Time travel equation, we can get the exact coordinate."—Add said after sliding a small screen behind him in front and drop the equation on it onto the big screen. Their conversation about complicated mathematic equations just went on and on. Then Glave asked a sudden question. "How is that priestesses?"—even thought he asked without any direct name in his question, Add knew he was asking about Seris, or the new Nature priestess. "She just woke up yesterday. Look like being interrupted during the process, she was only reborn with the soul and power of the Nature priestess. Even though some parts were lost, her memories still remain as Seris, and because of being revived after a long time, her memories stopped at the event of her death 10 years ago."—Add stopped and chuckled a bit, then continue. "I had informed her about everything happened in that time, normal people would have freak out, but she just responded with her usual tender smile and accept it, just like how she welcomed me 12 years ago."
"What do you mean by 'some parts'?"—Glave asked another question, which caused Add to stop typing the holographic keyboard. "She still remember mine and Raven name, how I came to them and the Crow Mercenaries, but she seemed to forgot about Alex, and she only remember Raven as someone important to her, not as her fiancée."—after a while, Seris came in along with the other chefs. "Everyone! Take a break and have lunch!"—everyone then stopped what they are doing to have lunch.
"Wow, these things are pretty good!"—Elsword shouted with food in his mouth after trying the food that Seris made. Some others also have the same idea. "Seris food is the best!"—then a small fight about whose food is better, Seris or Ann started. "How can you make these things so delicious, ?"—Rena asked after trying the food. "Well, it not easy to cook and make everyone in the mercenaries eat their standard 3 meals a day, Especially Add."—Add startled a bit. The redhead then started to rolling on the floor laughing. "Hahahaha! General used to be a picky child about food!" "Drabaki."—Add ordered, then the Dark Watcher slight grown in size and started to bite Elsword head. After a while, it changed back into it mini size and returned by it master shoulder.
"Is this the new pet that you mentioned, Add?"—Seris asked, Add then used his dynamos to send Drabaki to Seris. Seris patted it head and smiled. "The Terror of the Great war…you don't look like what you used to be back then."—Add lips then curved into a small smile. "Maybe this is better."
Later morning, the portal leading to the demon realm had completed. Everyone then returned to their room to pack for necessities, while the others were transporting weapon, ammunition and supplies onto the ships. Chung, Eve and Apple ran the final maintenance on the Nasod Scorpion, Personal Mobile and other unit weapons, to make sure that they are at their best condition. The preparation took another day, so Glave decided they will depart the next morning.
Night, Add was sleeping near the projector after making the final adjustment on the equations. Seris putted a blanket on him and chuckled. "Falling as sleep like this, no matter if it 10 or 12 years, you are still the same Add."—Seris then turned around after hearing sound of foot step. It was Ara. "I came to check on Add. But look like you was faster than me."—Ara smiled. Ara and Seris then proceeded outside and sat down. "Just now, you called him 'Add' right?"—Seris asked. "Ah yes, he said I can call him by his name when there are only of us."—Seris remained silent for a while then smiled. "You like Add, don't you?"—Ara face then turned into a massive blush, and the girl couldn't find any word to say. "That a relief. Back then, even though he got along well with the others in the Crow Mercenaries, he still a bit quiet. But look like since he joined here, he had changed a lot. And I'm glad that he had found someone that love him."—then Seris started to tell Ara about Add when he still with the Crow Mercenaries.
The next morning, the day of the final battle of the 'Guardian' versus the demons. Glave stood before the portal, facing the rest of the 'Guardian'. "Let just skip the stupid heroic speech. I'll get straight into the point: Luto, former leader of the 'Guardian', had violated and betrayed the vow. So his consequences: being torture in Henir for eternity, to pay for his crime of treason."—the portal then opened. It was built wide enough so the ships can go through them. The ships proceeded through the portal, following by other unit troops.
When everyone and everything have got through the portal, they immediately set up a small camp while Add sent his dynamos and scouting drones to create a map. His dynamos and drones returned after a while with a holographic map. Glave looked at the map then announced the plan. They will divide into 4 groups to attack from all directions, while a small group will break in and deal with the big guy.
All troop then proceeded to carry out the plan. From the north will be Edan special assassination unit, south is Noah Imperial guard, east is the Vanguard and west is the 9th Sky Division. The ambush group consisted of Edan, Noah and Add group. Just as planned, Glave deployed the Vanguard with 2 more support group at the east entrance as the demon main army stationed there.
"Quake Buster! / Hypersonic Stab! / Land Demolisher—Earthquake!"—using the chaotic battle as a camouflage, the ambush troop easily opened a path and proceeded inside. Then 3 demons rushed toward Elesis. She couldn't react in time, but they got stabbed by a giant sword. "Armageddon Blade! Leave thing here to me, go on!"—Lowe grinned. "You better not die here pal. I hate attending a funeral of a stupid!"—Elsword shouted back. "Look who is talking! Your IQ is even lower than me!"—after getting inside, the path got separated into 4 routes, so they decided to split into 4 groups. They wished each other good luck then proceeding into their path.
-1st path—
"Harpoon Spear!"—Raven shot a nasod spear to the ground and quickly got rid of the demons on it track. He was in the same group with Chung and Noah. The demons caused them no difficult in dealing with them, so they quickly got moved further inside. Then a giant slam caused the roof to collapse. "Wonder Wall!"—Chung quickly brought up a defensive barrier, saved them from being crushed by debris. When the smoke had faded, they looked up to see the thing that crushed the floor was a giant nasod, with giant body, a big cannon, but tiny legs.
"Look like I missed some rats over here."—a figure with afro hairstyle spoke from inside the Inspector core. But Chung paid no mind at his word, now all his attention was on the nasod. "Interesting design, giant body for better center control, and to support the cannon when firing. But I still don't understand the meaning of tiny legs."—Chung said then titled his head to the side when looking at the Inspector legs. "Oh you don't need to, as you will die right now."—Wally smirked then from behind the Inspector, many smaller nasods appeared and quickly surround the trio. "Look like this gonna take a while, ready commander, Noah?"—Chung asked with a small smile. "Ready."—Raven and Noah responded in union. "Then, let start with a flashy entrance. Chaos Cannon!"—Chung said the insert a disfrozon into his cannon and carry it on his shoulder, multiple cannonballs started to come out from both end, creating big explosion and quickly destroyed the nasod formation.
"Hellfire Gatling! Frozen Step!"—Raven shot multiple nuclear fire toward the nasods while Noah casted a flame that turn everything into frozen ice. The nasod number quickly decreased, then the Inspector decided to join the fight. It lifted up the cannon on it back and fired a barrage of energy bullets, the bullets fell on the ground, creating massive explosions. Raven and Noah using their slow speed to dodge them, suddenly the Inspector slammed in cannon on the ground, knocking the 2 up and shot another barrage, knocking them unconscious.
"Vice Commander! Noah!"—Chung shouted while running toward the 2. "Now you are the only one left, little rat."—Wally laughed like his victory had been ensured. Chung stood up after checking the 2 to make sure that they still breathing. His expression remained as his usual small smile, but the aura around him had completely changed. Then in a blink of eye, a nearby nasod gone headless. "Have you ever heard of the 'Guardian' of Hamel?"—Chung asked Wally while making 3 more nasods headless. When Wally looked at him, he saw in his hands were a pair of guns.
"The 'Guardian' of Hamel consisted of 3 main armies. My father, Helputt Seiker was an Iron Paladin, those that stood in the frontline to protect other, the 'Invincible Shield'. Myself, a tactical Trooper, those that remained in the rear to provide back up and strategy, the 'Battlefield Intelligence'."—Chung then pointed his gun to the sky, concentrate his into a sphere and detonate it, creating a blue aura around him. When the aura died down, his armor had completely changed. The armor now had more agile shape with less heavy armor pad, 2 blue scarves sprouted behind him.
"The last army, was rarely mentioned, or to everyone, they have never exist. The Deadly Chaser, those that moved in the darkness, eliminating the targets without any sound, the 'Shadow Assassin'. Why did the 'Guardian' create the Deadly Chaser you asked? Because sometime, what the people need is not a hero clad in shiny armor, but a monster. The Deadly Chaser was created for the purpose of assassination, sometime the target is not the demons, but the people. Our hands were stained with blood, that why I've never like this form, but for my friends and comrades, I'll stain my hand with as much blood as it take."—Chung said then slammed his cannon on the ground, his helmet then appeared and his body was covered in silver aura.
"Artillery Strike—Quantum Ballista!"—Chung shot a giant missile that dropped on the ground, creating a massive explosion that instantly wiped out the rest of the nasod. "You brat! I'll crush you! Inspector!"—Wally said then commanded the Inspector to crush Chung with it colossal body. Chung quickly leap back and placed multiple mortar that rain wave after wave of shells on the Inspector. "Curse it! System Break mode activate!"—Wally said then crushed the red button on the control panel. The Inspector immediately went crazy and started to wreaking havoc. Chung used his cannon to send him flying up high. "You think that can help you? Inspector, ready the laser!"
Chung pulled out a small device and placed it on the cannon. "This thing was for no good except for it massive destruction capabilities. But now I'll put it into good use."—his cannon then transformed, it became bigger, it length is now 3 times his body, 4 disforzen energy capsules at the back, the front have 3 vents on each side. Chung held the cannon on his shoulder and started to aim for the Inspector. A magic circle appeared in front of the cannon barrel, a sphere of mana then started to form and getting bigger for every bit of mana that it can gathered from the surrounding.
"It a pity that I can't dismantle that Inspector to research it, but General Add had a lot more information about it, so after we got rid of the wyvern I'll ask him later."—the sphere of mana had reached it max energy climax. Chung gave Wally his final smile, then pulled the trigger. " 'Knowledge Tyrant' down, 2 more Creators to go."
"Sirius Howl!"
A massive beam of energy was shot from the cannon, and immediately destroyed the Inspector, leaving no trace behind, like it had never exist in the first place, so does Wally. About 10 minutes later, Raven and Noah woke up. Luckily, they only have a few bruises, so they continued to move on.
-2nd path—
"Elsword! Watch your feet!" / "Aisha! Duck!" / "Elesis! Above you!"
The group was having trouble while trying to cross through the path full of traps. Aisha kept teleport into the traps while Elsword and Elesis always step on them. Rena stood at the side facepalming. "Stop with what you are doing guys, you only make it worse. Follow my lead."—Rena said then closed her eyes. After a while, she opened her eyes again and shot multiple arrows at random direction. The other 3 still don't understand what she was doing then from the place that the arrows hit, the traps immediately got neutralized. "How did you know that the traps were there?"—Elsword asked while poking at the neutralized traps. "Everything, don't matter if it a living thing or an object, they have their own presence of mana. If you can track their presence, you can tel where they are. You try too Aisha."—Rena advised, then Aisha closed her eyes and after a while, she can directly hit the trap like Rena. Elsword and Elesis did the same, the group then quickly got through the trap field.
When they reached an open space, more boulders came crashing down on them. "What the? I thought we already got rid all of the traps!"—then boulders after crushing down then returned and formed a giant golem. On it shoulder was 2 female figures, one with a big hat and a staff, the other with bat wings and a scythe. "Isn't it looks cute? It name is teach the Tyrant." "My name is Speka, the Shadow Witch."—Speka introduced herself. "And I'm Karis, the Succubus queen. I'm also the one who took your precious little Light El at the Elf Village."—Karis word startled the 4. They grabbed their weapons and went into their battle stances. "Elsword, Rena, Elesis, you guys take care of that golem, I'll deal with these 2."—Aisha said, but Elsword immediately cut off. "Are you nuts? You can't deal with them alone, I'll fight with you!'—the 2 of them started a argument, just like usual, they always argue over even the smallest thing. Speka and Karis were sitting on Teach shoulder and watching the fight. "Are you 2 love bird done talking yet?—the 2 turned over, and decided to put the argument aside.
"Fine, I'll deal with Speka while you deal with Karis."—Aisha said then along with Elsword, rushed toward them while Teach following Karis order to deal with Rena and Elesis. "Look like you also have a contract with Angkor girl. Let see between you and me, who is the true Queen of Angkor."—Speka smirked then she teleported her and Aisha to, Karis and Elsword different rooms.
"Well, guess that leave us with this big guy."—Elesis said then turned around to look at her opponent, Teach the Tyrant. "Let go Rena."—Elesis said then zoomed toward the golem. She tried to attack, but it body made of rocks so her attacks didn't penetrate it. "How about this? Eternal Fire!"—a pillar of fire erupted around Elesis. The attack caused the golem to halted it movement, but when the attack ended, still no damage found on the surface of the giant. It slammed it giant palm down on Elesis. Rena quickly used her arrow to create a wind wall to drag Elesis away.
"Dang it, my attacks have no effect on that thing at all. What about your arrows?"—Elesis asked. "I tried, but it skin is too thick."—Elesis gritted her teeth while thinking of a way to penetrate the golem skin. Then an idea popped up in her mind. "That it! The law of physics! If we combine my fire and your Freezing Arrow, we can break through it skin!"—one more time, Elesis used the Eternal Fire on the golem. Rena shot an magic arrow with ice magic right at the time when Elesis attack ended. Teach skin started to crack. After 3 more time, it body now full of cracks, Elesis then rushed toward to deal the final blow.
"Juggernaut Buster!"—Elesis spinned her sword around while dragging the golem along with her, after gaining enough force from the spinning momentum, she strike the sword with all her might, the attack caused the golem to fall apart. "Hah, finally. Wonder how is Elsword and Aisha doing?"
-Aisha side—
"Phantom Breathing—Dark Fall!" / " Hell Drop!"
Dark magic were all over the room as Aisha and Speka were competing to see who is the best Queen of Angkor. Their spells collided and nullified each other as they both used the same kind of technique and magic. "You sure got some skill little girl. Now take this, Dark Cloud!"—Speka created a poison cloud around Aisha, then teleported away. After getting to a safe distance, she summoned multiple energy rays and shot it toward Aisha. "Plasma Cutter? I remembered the direction where the laser will come from so dodging it wouldn't be a problem."—Aisha thought to herself. But just when the laser hit the cloud, it immediately exploded, Aisha quickly teleported away from the explosion and use her ice magic to cover the burn spots. "That was my special customized Dark Cloud, I putted many ingredients in it and it became a new type of gas. If you teleport just 1 second later, then you will now be a burning corpse on the ground."—Speka started to mock and being self-confident about her genius mind. "You okay Master?"—Angkor appeared beside Aisha, asking for her situation. "I'm okay. Both me and her, we used the same technique, but she had modified some of her skill. SO my only chance of winning now is to combine both Angkor and elemental magic. Think Aisha, think!"—then Aisha remembered that when the cloud exploded, the ice that she created back then reflected the light. "Reflect…reflect…this might work."
"Blizzard Shower!"—Aisha casted her spell, millions of ice shards then fell down from the sky, but Speka managed to dodge all of them. "Your spell is too weak little girl! Why don't you just surrender and I'll be the true Queen of Angkor!"—Aisha then summoned Angkor in it big size. Angkor started to gather energy and shot a giant laser.
"How pathetic of you, struggling in the last minute. Abyss Angkor had great attack power, but the move was too predictable!"—but Speka then immediately shut her mouth when she turned around, the laser hit a big ice shard and got separated into smaller one. The small laser then continued to reflect using the ice shards from Blizzard Shower. Speka effort of dodging the laser could only save her from a few, when there were a lot of laser beams.
"You can modify our spell by adding ingredients to it, then I can create new spell by combine 2 spell into one. I called this one…
"Crystal ice Mirage."
Speka was left confused in the middle of the laser, and after a while a beam hit her, then another and finally, all laser finished her off. "How…can I lose…to you?"—she spoke under her breathe, Aisha then came beside her with Angkor. "Because Angkor denied you." "I prefer my queen to have twin tails."—the bat added the last part. Then Aisha teleported back to where ELesis and Rena were. About 10 minutes later, Elsword returned, with Karis clinging on his arm.
"I told you, GET OFF ME!"—the redhead shouted with irritation, but his expression was something otherwise. "Why don't you just admit that you love being like this?"—Karis said with a seductive tone while pushing her 'things' closer on his arm. Elsword then turned around to see an Aisha surrounded with murderous intention.
"Elsword, what is the meaning of this?"—Aisha asked and without letting the redhead says anything to defense himself, she quacked him multiple time on his head with her axe-staff. Elsword now lying on the floor, blood coming out form his head. Elesis poked him to check if he still alive while Rena trying to heal him. Then their childish fight broke out again, for the 3rd time today. Elesis then glanced at Karis who was laughing while enjoying the show. "What is your purpose?"—Elesis asked, Karis just replied with a simple question. "The demon realm can be very boring you know, and your side seemed a lot more fun."—Elesis still hadn't satisfied with the answer she got, she still hold some doubt about Karis, but decided to put this aside.
-3rd path—
"WAAAAAAAAH!'—Ara, Lime and Amelia screamed while trying to dodge 2 giant claws coming down on them, Eve was being carried by Oberon and still remained her usual poker face. They were battling with the Dragon Bone and the Dark Nephilim, 2 colossal beasts at once, couldn't get any worse, that what they thought.
"Heaven Fist—Sweeper."—Eve summoned a giant fist that slammed down in front of the beasts and swept them away. "This will buy us sometime."—Eve said and still managed to sip her tea in this kind of situation. "Those things are too big for our attacks to have effect."—Amelia said after scanning through the beast body. "No, there is a way. According to my data, the Dark Nephilim had tough scales, but it abdominal remained vulnerable , so does the core in the Dragon Bone chest. If we can make the Dark Nephilim to show it belly, we can take it down."
After discussing on the plan for a while, the team formation had been decided. Eve and Amelia will deal with the Dragon bone while Ara and Lime take on the Dark Nephilim. "OK, let make this fast then."—Ara said then summoned Eun and went into her millennium form. "Sharp Fall!"—Lime leaped into the air and dived down, creating a big shockwave, caused the Nephilim to stun. "Fox Fire!"—Ara took the chance and launched multiple fox flames at the Nephilim, but instead of hitting it, she detonated it under his feet. The shockwave lift the beast slightly into the air, but it recovered faster than expected, so it immediately roar and release it Shard of Darkness toward the 2 to prevent them from attacking it. "Ouch, we missed it. One more time Ara!"—but Eun then stopped them. "What is it Eun?"—Ara asked, the millennium fox then smirked slightly. "You said that you will let me have some fun the next time you summon me, so I have a better way to deal with that thing."
Lime then again, rushed toward the Nephilim. But instead of the old plan, this time they will do as Eun plan. "That thing recover rate is way too fast, and it too heavy. Even if you can lift it up enough to make it show it belly, it can just recover and counter your attack. Lime, you buy us some time while we charge up our energy, this going to leave a big scar on that thing." "Let hope your plan work Eun. Dive kick bombing!"—Lime unleashed millions kick on the Nephilim head, and just as she expected, it made the beast went mad. She dodged it claw then continued to land kicks on it body.
"Violent Attack!"—while Lime distracting the Nephilim Ara and Eun were charging up their spirit energy. Ara formed her Hell Blast while Eun charging up 9 energy orbs at the tip of her tails. "Ok Lime, we are done here!"—Ara shouted, Lime then unleashed another Sharp fall and caused the Nephilim to stun. "Now Ara!"—Eun shouted, then Ara released her Hell Blast at Eun. Using the massive spirit energy from it, Eun fused it with the 9 spirit orbs on her tails, creating an even more massive energy orb. "Take this you youngster."
"Millennium Cannon!"
Eun shot the massive energy sphere at the Nephilim. Even thought it scales were one of the hardest material in both Elrios and demon realm, it stood no chance again the massive sphere of spirit energy. Instantly, the Nephilim scales got destroyed and leaving the beast vulnerable body to take all the damage. After making it final growl, the Dark Nephilim collapsed on the ground. "See, I told ya this way was faster."—Eun chuckled.
-20 minutes earlier, on Eve side—
"Genocide Reaper." / "Crazy Shot!"
Eve and Amelia were trying to break the core in the Dragon Bone chest. But even though it bones were very old, it even tougher than normal steel. And the flame on it body made some of attacks become useless. "Amelia, how much mana do you have left?"—Eve asked. "Not much, only enough for a couple more spells I guess."—Amelia responded while huffing. "It almost time for the next tea time. And I don't want to let my tea get cold."—Eve said then summoned a giant machine from a portal, with multiple nasod spears floating around it. The symbol of the Nemesis—the Lunatic Scud. Eve opened the holographic screen on the machine, typing the keyboard, the machine then separated into smaller parts and attached to Oberon, Ophelia and Ferdinand. "Hyper mode: activate."
"Queen Authority."
"Oberon, Ophelia, Ferdinand, let get this over with."—Eve ordered her 3 nasod servants. Using the upgrade components from the Lunatic Scud, Oberon along with Ferdinand quickly eliminated the Dragon Bone claws and wings. While Ophelia released millions of missiles and got rid of it armor. Amelia took aim and at the right timing, shot 4 guided arrows that precisely hit the core. Eve who was floating with her nasod spears then appeared in front of the Dragon Bone. "Return to where you belong, insolence commoner."—Eve said then pointed her finger at the Dragon Bone, responding to the queen order, the nasod spears then flew high into the air and dived down while the 3 nasod fired a massive amount of electron balls at the Dragon Ball, completely annihilated the beast.
The Lunatic Scud then reform into one piece and returned to where it came from. Eve summoned her throne and sat down. Oberon then reappeared with a tea tray in his hand, Ophelia took the tea pot, poured the tea into a small cup and handed it over to Eve. Eve took a sip then ordered Ferdinand to give one to Amelia. "It herbal tea, it can help recover your mana."—Amelia gladly took the tea cup and sat down on the chair made from Remy and Moby.
