【Awakening】Section 3 Dorag and Minos
If it weren't for that guy who controlled the absolute control of the other world, he wouldn't be living so badly now, Dorag pressed his wounds, and walked forward with difficulty in the space invisible to ordinary people, in the direction of Miller Castle. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info"That damn guy called 'Sehir'......"
The appearance of the demon god is for change, when the gods created everything in the world, in order not to make the world unchanging, the demon god is destined to stand on the opposite side of the gods. Just as Ars, the god of life, created the soul, and Dorag, his soul eater, was destined to devour it all.
When Dorag gained self-consciousness, he didn't know about the other gods. He established his own realm, transforming the dust of the other world into his own magical beasts. At that time, there was no such thing as "Alcatraz", and the appearance of Alcatraz was nothing more than a boy pulling out a goddamn sword on an island in the First Age. When the kid pulled out the sealing sword that the gods used to prevent them from intervening in the earthly world, a part of the otherworldly area coincided with the island, and everything that passed through the area near the island would be bound by the otherworldly aspiration, so the name of Alcatraz Island was also spread by the earthly creatures.
When the sword was drawn, she appeared in front of Dorag. She is called "she" only because her appearance has the characteristics of women of those earthly races. At the time, Dorag didn't pay much attention to it, but later it turned out that her physical characteristics were almost identical to those of humans who were born thousands of years later. She calls herself "the all-knowing, all-powerful Cechir".
Dorag didn't know when she appeared and gained consciousness, as no other demon god had ever broken into her realm before. She told Dorag that she had established a realm in the Otherworld that all demon gods could enter, and asked Dorag to go and discuss with the other demon gods about the plan to cleanse the world, and it was from this time that Dorag learned about the situation and number of other demon gods. After this meeting, Dorag was given the title of "Twelfth Demon God".
"It was her idea to rank second, and they laughed at me, why should we all listen to her from an unknown person......" Dorag said inwardly. Although she expressed protest and dissatisfaction in her heart, Dorag was still well aware of her abilities and strength far beyond that of other demon gods, and from the first time she saw her, Dorag was crushed by the power she exuded, and she couldn't raise her head in front of her. Dorag himself knew that his so-called "soul devouring" ability could have less than half the impact on the earthly world, but he had the ability to open the door to the otherworld anywhere on the earthly world that other gods did not have, except for that Cehir, of course.
In the purge of the First Age, there were only five demon gods who participated in the war, and she only proposed this purge plan, but she did not participate in it, if she also joined, maybe the result would be very different, right? At least she would not end up being forcibly repatriated to the other world by those damned sons of gods. No, you can't think so, Dorag shook his head again. "How can you start relying on the power of that nasty fellow? It's all bad for that damn son of God, yes!
"Last time I lost to those sons of gods, this time I didn't expect to be in the same place again, no, that guy's strength is not at all what the sons of gods can have, the energy emitted by the sword that pierced me, that feeling ......" Dorag's only remaining claw pressed his wound from the iron sword pierced by Regulus, and used the remaining strength to recover, but no matter how he recovered, the wound just couldn't heal, which was something that had never happened before.
Why would he ...... Damn, there's no time to think about this now!Go back to the castle and think about it in the long run!" Dorag said as he quickened his pace, he had been able to reach his destination in an instant, but now his physical condition could no longer support his actions.
On the main hall of Miller Castle.
"Your Majesty, according to the information we have received from the front, our 'Lord Dorag' seems to have been planted by the Son of God and is now on his way back to the castle. Salde reported to the king.
"Very well, it seems that it is time to take him in, so that my holy stone power can be restored!hahaha!" King Miller laughed.
As soon as the king's laughter fell, there was a gloomy wind in the hall for no reason, and there were only two people in the hall at this time, the king and the archmage, and the other soldiers must have been separated by the archmage - no one was allowed to approach when the king and the archmage were discussing things, although there were also newcomers who expressed concern for the king's safety, but the other guards said that as long as the archmage was present, it was enough. When the wind stopped, Dorag, panting and covered in wounds, appeared in front of them.
"Damn it, quick! get someone to heal me!" you-" He pointed at Thald with one of his last remaining fingers, "Aren't you some archmage? You should know some healing spells, heal me!"
"Yo, isn't this our Lord Dorag?" said Salder with a mocking smirk, "What's wrong with you?
"Stop talking nonsense! Quickly call someone to heal me!" On weekdays, if anyone dared to speak to him like this, he would have died tens of thousands of times, but now he has no extra energy to deter others, so he can only let them go.
"Do you need our help in healing, the all-powerful Lord Dorag? aren't you going to destroy the son of the god?
"You say that guy is the son of God, but the guy who made such a mess of me is not a son of God at all, he's-"
"Lord Dorag, it's not good to blame others for your incompetence!" Salde interrupted Dorag, "It turns out that the famous 'Soul Eater' is nothing more than that, it seems that we overestimated you!"
"You...... You're ...... Although my strength is greatly reduced now, it will not take much effort to kill you scum, so you can come back after you die and repent of your disrespect to me today!" said Dorag, gathering energy at the tips of his claws, ready to strike at the king and the archmage.
"Lord Dorag, you are one of the twelve demon gods, and ordinary people cannot destroy you, but do you know the three abilities of the Stone of Hades, the treasure of our country?" Salder took out the stone they called the Holy Stone, and the stone floated in the air, emitting a blue-purple light from time to time.
"It's ...... What are you going to do?!" Dorag was shocked at the sight of the energy emanating from the stone.
"Lord Dorag, to tell you the truth, after years of research, we have discovered three abilities of this stone, the first of which is to control the mind!" said Salder, who suddenly shot a beam of light out of the main hall, and it wasn't long before a soldier came up to Salder with a blank face, "Kill him!" Salde ordered.
After receiving the order, the soldier drew his sword without saying a word and slashed at Dorag, facing the hideous demon in front of him, he had no fear on his face, but the next second he was pierced through his chest by a sharp claw. After Dorag had killed the vulnerable soldier, he stared at Salder viciously, as if regretting that he had not been able to see through his scheme.
"Your Excellency, please don't be angry, you know that that the ant-like soldier is far from being your opponent, although you are injured, it is still effortless to deal with such a pawn, here is just to demonstrate to you the ability of the Holy Stone!" Salde smiled, "The second ability of this Holy Stone is to control evolution!"
As Salde finished speaking, King Nissac Gikos's body reacted, just as it had done nine years ago—his body began to swell, his skin gradually turned blue-black, and his hands turned into claws. Jikos let out a roar that shook the entire castle as if it were trembling, and his eyes were greedily fixed on the demon god Dorag in front of him, as if he wanted to devour him completely.
"That's your true strength, but that's it!" said Dorag, preparing to attack the king, who was wounded but still considered himself superior.
"This third ability is [Imprison the Soul]!" As soon as Salde's words fell, the stone began to emit an unprecedentedly strong light, stabbing people from opening their eyes. Dorag was illuminated by this bright light, and he had a bad premonition, and his body subconsciously stopped moving.
"Imprison the soul?!, do you want to ......" Before Dorag could finish speaking, King Miller had already attacked him, and Dorag was about to fight back, but suddenly he couldn't move, as if he was frozen by something, and could only watch as the claws of Gikos came towards him.
"Lord Daedric, please come and be a guest in our sacred stone!" After Salde finished speaking, Dorag felt his soul leave his body, and he felt that he was light, without pain or desire. As a "soul eater", he never imagined that he would one day be sucked out of his soul. His soul turned into a white band of light and flew straight into the Stone of Hades in Thalder's hand, and the rest of his body was nothing more than an empty shell.
King Miller pressed his claws against Dorag's head, and with a loud shout, Dorag's body began to shrink, as if all the life energy in the flesh had been sucked out by Gicos, and at last all that was left was a dry skin. As soon as the king pinched his claws, the skin was reduced to ashes and scattered in all directions.
"Hahahaha! In this way, my power is endless!" The king did not hide the ecstasy in his heart, he finally got rid of the various side effects caused by Bennison's seal in the past nine years, he felt that his energy was more than ever, it seemed that what the archmage said was true!
"Hand over my obsidian stone!!" suddenly a voice sounded in the main hall, and the king followed the sound, and found a person wearing a black robe and black cloak with a purple mist around his body appeared in the center of the hall, and there was no guard who came to report it before, for fear that he had been poisoned by him.
"Who are you?How dare you trespass into the main hall!What are the obsidian stones you are talking about?," Jikos asked, his words full of disdain and dissatisfaction, and his body still maintained the state of holy stone energy.
"Don't you have the garlic less!!, don't you have that power from obsidian stones, you filthy thief!" the man said with anger in his words, but calmly.
"It turns out that you are fighting the idea of our country's supreme treasure 'holy stone'! The person who moved its idea has already died under my claws, I advise you not to know how to lift it!"
"The Obsidian Stone is a sacred weapon granted to me by Lord Hades, how can you humans understand its true power?" the man said contemptuously, his tone was not as calm as before, as if he was a little excited, and even the mysterious mist around him became thicker, "I am Minos, the son of the god Hades, and you dare to steal the obsidian stone from my sleeping tomb while I am asleep! The name of the Supreme Treasure, it turns out that you humans are so brazen!"
"Damn, it was him......" Salde seemed to know something, and he took the initiative to move a few steps to the side of the hall.
"Don't dodge!" Minos suddenly tilted his head towards Salde and exclaimed, "Although your face has changed, I will not forget the aura you exude! You thief! You were the one who stole the obsidian stone back then!"
"Archmage...... "The king was confused, and did not understand a word of what he heard.
"Oh, who am I, the imp of Hades who sees humans as ants, but has to survive with the help of human bodies!" Salde no longer dodged, but walked forward with a smile, "Whose body are you borrowing?"
"You guy......" Minos clenched his fists, "stop giving me nonsense!
"If you want to grab the Holy Stone, then it's up to you to have the ability to do it!" Jikos shouted loudly, and took the lead in attacking Minos, only to see that he gathered a large amount of energy visible to the naked eye in his dragon-like hand, which was black, like countless bubbles, and those bubbles slowly converged into a sphere, and the sphere was surrounded by electric light, as if he could die without a place to die if he touched it a little.
"In that case, then I'll step over your corpse and get my artifact back!" Minos said as he began to accumulate power in his palm, and the purple mist that had been hovering around him began to converge into his palm at this moment, and those air masses slowly accumulated into a blue-purple energy ball, which was the same size as the black energy in Jikos's hand, and from time to time emitted a light similar to that of the magic stone.
"Your Majesty, be careful! this man is not easy to deal with!" Salde reminded him.
"I'm still afraid he won't make it!" said Gicos as he rushed towards Minos, his muscles growing again, and the arm in which he controlled the black ball was as thick as a tree trunk. He dangled the energy in front of his palm and pressed it towards Minos's head.
Minos didn't move half a step, just raised his hand and used the blue-purple energy orb he had accumulated earlier to catch Jikos's attack steadily. The moment the two energy balls collided, the energy exploded in all directions like a hurricane, and the aftermath of the collision spread to the surroundings, and the stone benches, sculptures, iron tools, tableware, and several guards who had just arrived were all turned into powder in an instant, as if these things had never existed. But Archmage Salder was unaffected, perhaps because of his own strength.
"What?!This guy was able to take my powerful blow?!" Gicos seemed too light to believe what was happening.
"This man can even compete with me with the power he stolen!It seems that they have developed the obsidian stone to a certain extent......" Minos thought to himself.
"Drink!" Gicos clenched his unused left claw into a fist and slammed it towards Minos, but Minos only raised his right hand and stopped his fist with two fingers. The moment Gicos's attack was stopped, there was also an energy spread, causing the entire castle to tremble, and if they made a few more moves, the castle could collapse at any time.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the two withdrew their attacks at the same time, and both sides took a few steps back, keeping a certain distance.
"It seems necessary to settle the battle soon. Minos said as he struck a beam of light at Gikos with both hands, and an explosion occurred where it hit, and a spherical film of energy appeared in the center of the explosion, bouncing the beam out. Several beams of light flew around the castle and hit the castle's stone walls, causing an instant explosion that blew a large hole in the entire wall, and the masonry of the inner and outer walls began to fall off.
"Your Majesty!" Salde cried out and rushed to Minos.
"Helper, get out of the way!" Minos freed up his hand and struck a purple light at Salde, knocking him straight out of the big hole that had just appeared, "It's much quieter now, and it should be a result." Minos stopped his assault and waited for the smoke to clear, only to find King Gicos of Mill almost unscathed, and that he had bounced off all of his previous attacks.
"It doesn't look like it's going to end so soon. Minos said calmly when he saw this.
Under the walls outside the castle was the mysterious and deep forest, and Salde, who had flown out of the castle, fell straight into the abyss below the cliff, but it was not long before he walked out of the entrance of the forest as if nothing had happened.
"That kid has a really fiery temper, and he hasn't grown much from back then!" said Salde to himself.
"Is there finally a chance to act alone, Mr. Salder?" a figure stepped out of the forest behind Salde, "or should I call you 'real' His Majesty?"
"Who are you?!"
