Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 430 Forgetting That The Enemy Can Wait

The power of light exploded in the darkness and the shroud of Kyriachos struggled.

Kyros had been scanned with a powerful darkness. Many details that Kyros had been hidding had been revealed.

"Damn! I was too careless! I have to hurry!" Kyros charged down the dark steps. Instead of the subtlety of his movements to keep the dark ones uninformed of his true potential, Kyros had no choice but to charge quickly.

With the information the enemy now had because Kyros was greedily devouring the darkness to level up, they could prepare and counter him! fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

And Kyros wouldn't let the enemy have this information freely. He had to deal with them.

With the light, Kyros charged and didn't even take in any of the darkness!

Meanwhile, in the depths of the darkness, Eugene and the controller of the darkness and Eugene was glancing over at the stats of Kyros which they managed to get but the dumbest of luck.

"What the fragment?!" Eugene cursed.

The darkness quivered as it saw the name of Kyriachos and began to fear Kyros.

"Two stats that are over four hundred? By his Dexterity, he ought to have a Victor's Crown potential! How can a Champion have so many blessings of Codes?! This is the Nephilim!?" Eugene exclaimed.

The dark head turned to Eugene's main head.

"We have to combine our powers. Through the darkness that my master has bestowed, I can reanimate the other heads and increase the death energy in them. It should give us the ability to reawaken their Cores! I'll create a dark realm to increase this space so you can reform your true size!" The Dark Head explained.

The two understood that Kyros's stats mean that he could easily reach a power level that would surpass Commanders and even challenge Cardinals at once! And that was a very, very conservative estimate!

Eugene and the darkness aspect that chained him were in an agreement. The enemy that they were fighting was something that they couldn't understand. The darkness was set to prevent the Okto-Khefali from claiming it and stopping the one that it was destined for to eventually come and claim it. One who walked in the power of Somatos Ous Thanatou would be the person destined to claim and cultivate the power of the Okto-Khefali.

The death energy gave false life to the heads and so on, all eight Cores of the Okto-Khefali had begun to take form.

Fire, Lightning, Entropy, Wind, Dark, Water, Ice, and Metal elements rose from the dead and found life in their decay. The massive form of the Okto-Khefali had returned and the giant creature roared loudly as its powers and strength grew. The energy that it had quickly surpassed that of a Commander and was reaching Cardinal level!

"More! Our enemy has a High Crown Potential! In terms of powers and attack, he might be able to perform an attack that could reach the base level of Crowns!" The Dark Head spoke.

Eugene cursed. He wouldn't have believed it but he had seen Kyros's stats. Even having a High Crown's potential didn't necessarily mean that the attacks could reach Crown level! Usually, only Cardinals would have stats that would reach the 400 stat mark! But Kyros was a level 36 Champion! He was 14 levels away from having such stats! But he feared what the Codes and Corruption that Kyros had and what its full power could do!

The Entropy head was the main head of Eugene but the Dark head was currently the strongest one thanks to the dark being empowering it.

The two beings were gathering more and more death energy and created an Okto-Khefali powered by the same Corruption that Heralcus used.

But in that alternate future where Heralcus did acquire the Okto-Khefali, the battle he had with the Okt-Khefali was rather dangerous. His primary ally was the very darkness that chained the Okto-Khefali. In that alternate timeline, thousands upon thousands of years had passed and very little energy of the darkness remained. The Okto-Khefali, Eugene, was also affected by the death energy of the darkness and was greatly weakened.

Heralcus fought and slayed the Okto-Khefali using the very darkness that bound it, and in that battle, some of the elemental cores were destroyed. And so, the power that Heralcus received was weak.

But now, the darkness and the Okto-Khefali were stronger and even worked together. They were quickly reaching a Crown level of power! The height of Heralcus was only a Cardinal, and they had crossed that gap and reached the next realm!

The darkness inside expanded out as if there was another world inside and the full frame of the Okto-Khefali was revealed.

Kyros could sense it from afar.

"Did you feel that, Calaminus? It looks like those guys are preparing for my arrival. I can feel the power of the Okto-Khefali appear." Kyros smiled.

"AHHHHH!" Calaminus was still shouting in pain.

"Oh... You still haven't gotten used to it. I'll seal you again with Mysterion." Kyros closed the lid on the loud, crying soul of Calaminus who was being scorched by the sun.

Kyros then began to think about how to properly deal with the problematic enemies.

"I don't want the Okto-Khefali to lose more of its core... Even though Heralcus had an ally to tame it, he still lost some of the core when he fought the Okto-Khefali... It'll be dangerous if I clash with it and lose those precious Cores... Those are the closest thing to what another god or fallen core is! If I am Mysterion who hides the power of the gods and fallen who sides with Beginning then I must acquire those cores to be used as the foundations of what my ally will make..." Kyros knew that the cores that were previously gifted to him by the Temple were not perfect and wouldn't be suitable to pursue godhood or falsehood.

"Alright... I'll use that strategy..." Kyros decided and began to rush further inside. Soon, he was close to the very bottom of the stairway and knew that the Okto-Khefali was just beyond the doorway.

He then took out a strange orb. It was like a soul core, but it had several souls inside of it. After learning the trick of sacrificing the souls to perform Last Stand, Kyros created a weaker version of that spell which was also more economical. It took and chained the souls of the dead that was absorbed in the Nephilim Sealing Fortress.

And with it, Kyros created a strange soul core through alchemy. It was not an Elemental core, but with it, he can perform a weaker version of [Last Stand].

Kyros still lacked training and he needed the boost of several souls to awaken that power.

"[Last Resort]!" Kyros shouted and activated the weakened version and the powers of the souls in the soul core surged and bestowed great power to Kyros. 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

"I didn't want to waste one, but oh well..." Kyros sighed as his powers began to increase.

The power of the Celestial Swordsman appeared.

The sudden power surged out and the two dark beings sensed the power.

"With this sword, I have slain a Fallen! What is a mere worm?!" Kyros's domineering words echoed out of the darkness.

"He's coming! Attack with all you have! Use your true form!" The Dark head shouted.

Eugene knew what to do and activated the power of his blood and brought out the memories of long ago.

Just as the Dracanae that Martha fought was bestowed the power by Destiny to evolve far beyond their capabilities, so did Eugene awaken the memories of so long to revert his cells and become a monstrous power.

The power of the Okto-Khefali returned and Eugene had reached the power of the Crowns!

A Crown had appeared over the head of Entropy as Eugene assumed the strongest form he could make!

He glanced at the path and prepared for Kyros to move inside! The Dark Head also prepared its strongest attack.

...

...

...

...

Only then did the two realize what Kyros had planned.

"YOU MOTHER FRAGMENT! GET IN HERE AND FIGHT!" Eugene roared.

"Hmm? Why should I?" Kyros's voice echoed from beyond.

"You! You're waiting for us to lose power in this form!" The Dark Head realized.

"Yeah. Why should I fight you now? I can wait. I'm asking Calaminus to tell me a long story titled, One Piece. Wanna listen?"

"That's...! Cheating?!"

"Why? Did you guys forget that I can wait and not get in that room you prepared?"
