Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 505 Friends With A Fallen
Pyrekaiser saw the team and set out to move out. He commanded his three Cherubims and several Conquerors to prepare for battle.
As Pyrekaiser was in his chamber, another man similar to his appearance approached.
"Brother. Is it wise to meet them in combat?"
"Since when is it foolish to meet foes in combat for us, Fafnirs?" Pyrekaiser laughed.
"You only have the strength of a Cherubim now. So you created a lesser dragon down to the Planesworld."
"I lost the connection with my daughter in Midlands. A daughter who has the full bloodline of mine. You can't expect me just to ignore that. Besides... No Celestial could kill me even if this form. Even the Eldrich Lord will have troubles." Pyrekaiser laughed.
"I guess I should join you in battle..." The other man sighed, turned around, and left the room to prepare for combat.
"A lesser dragon, huh? So that's what it was! Still, that's a very inefficient method!"
The man was stunned to see a strange, robbed man standing before him.
The man harnessed his Brute Force but was suddenly paralyzed.
"Im...possible...! Paralysis... magic? On my dragonic lineage?!" The man was surprised.
"Relax. Pyreking Fafnir, brother of Pyrekaiser. I am Supreme Magistrate Gandor Ellisium. I came here to inspect the migration of those neighboring planets personally." Gandor released the magic that bound Pyreking.
Pyreking was stunned.
"So it's Supreme Magistrate Gandor! I apologize for not recognizing you. I shall inform my brother."
"He already knows. My, how pitiful. Someone who had the potential to be as strong as Pyrekaiser. And yet you can't do half of what he can since that Eldrich attack." Gandor sighed.
"Are you here to tease my brother, Gandor? Or are you here because you're worried I am not strong enough?" Pyrekaiser approached.
"None. I am here to give your orders to resolve our many issues. That's why I used magic to awaken the Spiritual Avatar in this fortress."
"Hmph. These issues are as good as resolved."
"Impyernos could be alive."
"What?!" Pyrekaiser was shocked.
"I solved the riddle of their entry. Greater God Sheolrah had entered the Planesworld several times to seek Cracky Batcheeks. I believe that the Eldrich used a raw method to send those Eldrich that Princess Listrel found. Only Impyernos is strong enough to create an attack that would breach the shields of the Planesworld and send a team inside. And they might be doing it again. That planetary gathering is not a stellar army to fight and attack this place. It's a raid party!"
"You mean this gathering of planets will be to send a raid party? That's ridiculous. Even if Impyernos can create a shield, the most they can send is Conquerors! So why would these planets agree to send their team on a suicide mission?"
"I'm guessing it has to do with what is discovered in Airom. But there may be other reasons why they are gathering to send a team.. That's why we need to send someone strong to the Midlands."
"My brother? He is still a Cherubim. The laws prohibit it."
"Not if you take back your two levels of Celestial power that you used to heal your brother."
"...So you knew."
"Obviously. Why would the great Pyrekaiser be wounded in combat and lose two power levels? We all knew. Moribius knew, Solas knew, the king knew. We just didn't worry about it."
"...If I take away these draconian cells in my brother, he will die."
"Not if we imbue light magic in him. His level will drop to Crown. But even as a Crown, most Conquerors won't be a problem to him."
"You think I haven't tried asking Solas Soter for that? She said that such magic would be costly and drain her."
"She's just playing hardball to force you to pay up. But you don't know her weakness. I do." Gandor smiled.
"Her weakness?"
"Observe." Gandor's avatar raised his hand, and the fortress began to use its magic to create a link to the Planesworld.
"Pyrekaiser? If it's about your brother..."
"It's me, Solas."
"Gandor? Why are you there?"
"Impyernos is alive. He is taking advantage of the weakened barrier of the Planesworld that has been breached by Greater God Sheolrah. That's how those Eldrich arrived. As such, I plan to send Pyreking Fafnir to the Midlands. His cultivation will drop because Pyrekaiser will retrieve the two Celestial Levels he gave. But you need to heal that and stop the darkness from plaguing him.
"No. That darkness is a power of Thanatou and Astheneia. It will cost me great amounts of pain to heal that, which was why I asked Pyrekaiser to pay up and brave the Sol Star to get a flask of its light."
"Oh, come on! At most, it will just weaken your power by half a level! It's not that bad!"
"No! I refuse."
"Fine... I didn't want to do this, Solas. But you leave me with no choice. Esmeralda! If your sister agrees, I'll agree to go on a date with you. Not an avatar, the real thing. I promise."
"What?!" Solas exclaimed.
"ERMAHH GREATERGAHHHHDDD!" A shrill cry of great excitement was heard in the background.
"SISTER! AGREE! AGREE!"
"ESMERALDA! CALM YOURSELF! I WILL LOSE HALF A LEVEL IF I-!"
"YOU ARE RUINING MY LIFE! I HATE YOU!"
Pyrekaiser and Pyreking had their mouths wide open as they heard two girls in a shouting contest.
"Solas's weakness is that she has a very spoiled little sister. So if she doesn't agree to my request, her sister will plague her forever. And to Solas, having her younger sister's tantrum equals losing two levels." Gandor chuckled.
"I'll create a portal for you two to go. Get healed, get your powers back, and send your brother to find your daughter."
"...You also know about my daughter?!" Pyrekaiser was surprised.
"What do you think I'm doing there in my observatory?" Gandor chuckled.
"What if they attack?" Pyrekaiser asked.
"They won't. At least not yet. This gathering is to abrupt! There were no movements before this. They are gathering to negotiate something. They even chose a planet that was situated in the middle. Brek Fiasco is where all the neighboring planets gather to meet each other halfway." Gandor gazed up towards the planet and frowned.
"What spurred them to gather?" Gandor wondered.
Brek Fiasco was a dark planet that could not even get any light from the Sol Star. It was a planet full of Dark Dependents. There were very few humans in this place, and these few were only in Brek Fiasco by migration or warping.
The dark land was dry and dark. Very few water sources were present, and only the Dark Dependents could thrive on this planet.
But now, all the nearby forces on the planets that wanted to breach the great barrier of the Planesworld were gathering.
In the Penultimate Fiasco Fortress, where the kings and queens of this planet lived, were numerous portals activated to receive the incoming guest.
One after the other, the portals began to flash out as the armies of darkness moved into the planet.
Numerous Elderich arrived first.
They had the largest delegates that arrived.
Races of all forms of darkness gathered. Skeletons, liches, demi-humans, half-demons, pit lords, and many more gathered.
Those of the lighter shade of the darkness were also present. Goblins, ogre lords, dark elves, arthropodians, and lizardfolk were also there.
There were nearly 20 other planets and other dwellings close to the Planesworld. To those who have reached the Conqueror levels, they would have the power to conquer the skies. And so, known only to those of such levels in the Highlands and the Netherlands, was an interplanetary war. Some stellar skirmishes between the planets would claim certain floating lands where rare magical plants and items could grow.
But for the longest time, the strongest planet in this region was people hailing from the Planesworld.
If not for the equal power of the Highlands and the Netherlands that clashed and fought against each other, these others planets may have already been conquered!
And so, the threat of the Planesworld was one of the reasons the invitation that Eldrich gave was answered.
The Penultima Kingdom had brought all of its strongest warriors up. Their armies were close by to answer should there be any threat to this gathering.
There were Cardinals and Crowns that numbered by the hundreds. Conquerors were also many. And finally, several Cherubims were standing to represent some of their worlds.
Each planet brought Conquerors and Cherubims as part of its escorts.
The Eldrich king, Cherubim Bolerax Hiwind, arrived.
Many gave respectful and fearful looks at the Cherubim. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
A surging power from the skies above could be felt as a terrifying being was making his entrance. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com
And finally... a Celestial appeared!
BOOM!
The warp beam slammed on the ground and created a strong impact.
The Cherubims of the planets used their powers to block the shockwave.
"Cherubim Emperor Bolerax Hiwind. Let's get down to business. What makes you think you can breach the barrier of the Planesworld?" A man with a strange pale green aura approached. At closer inspection, the atmosphere was actually the souls of countless beings. Their face and heads could be seen forming and vanishing around him as the man approached.
"Soul Lord of the Million and Conqueror of Dark Planet Yantze. Your presence is a gift." Emperor Bolerax Hiwind stood up to greet the arrival of the Celestial.
Many of the Cherubims of different planets were respectful to the only Celestial who arrived.
"Enough of your futile greetings. How can you assure our entry?" The Celestial known as Soul Lord demanded.
"Me."
It was a faint whisper. No one knew from whence it came. But the voice echoed all over the planet.
A gripping fear was felt, and the Celestial Soul Lord was faced with tremendous power that he stumbled down.
"... Impyernos! Lord Impyernos! You're alive?!" The Soul Lord trembled.
"As you can see, unlike all of you, our Eldrich race is still friends with a Fallen." Breveros laughed as everyone began to bow in fear of the Fallen, who they thought had died.
