Chapter 326 - Arrival Amidst Despair

-----

In front of Abyss and Edward's eyes, Boxxy's entire body was suddenly sliced in half horrendously, the same way Abyss had it sliced! Her soul was also sliced at the same time, as blood began to flow everywhere gorily.

"No! Noooo!"

Abyss cried in utter horror and anger as she rushed towards Boxxy.

The doppelganger's mind began to slowly black out, her eyes locked into the horror of the almighty strength of such a powerful Orc.

Her golden eyes began to slowly release tears of regret.

"Yu… ki…" she muttered to herself, having the most important person in her life inside of her heart even in her last moments.

Edward gritted his teeth as he mustered the last amount of mana he could.

"Grand Heal!!!"

FLAAAASH!

A flash of bright life light reached Boxxy's sliced pieces of her body, forcefully binding them together and healing her back…

"Edward!" said Abyss as she smiled faintly, Boxxy almost didn't make it!

However, her body was too weakened, and she had already fallen unconscious…

Edward quickly caught her with his arms and hurriedly stuffed her inside of his Divine Realm, these small seconds were enough for their foes to move, however.

Too weakened to move fast and too exhausted for their reflexes to be at 100%, the two didn't realized it when… they were already trapped inside two spatial cubes.

Ernesticia looked at the two with an angered expression in her face.

"You rats are so tough to kill… But this is enough, I already got you where I wanted…" she said with a smile.

Brutus smiled at Ernesticia.

"Good job, the booze is on me tonight." He said.

"There's no time to talk about booze…" sighed Ernesticia.

And they even dared to leisurely talk in such a situation!

After the Aberrant Psionic Cthulhu died, there was nothing stopping them from attacking and finishing off their foes.

"Then this is it…" said Ernesticia, a malicious smile emerged in her lips.

Silver emerged at the side of the two, a pissed off look on his face was clear as water, the egg was carried by him with its special artifact carrying it with a sharp blade near it, and he was forced to carry Nesephise using mechanical arms he generated around his shoulders because she had fallen unconscious.

He was missing two arms and a leg, which showed that his wounds were barely bleeding, and most showed destroyed mechanical tissue, he began to slowly repair himself with his powers, as one of his eyes was torn apart and revealed a glowing red mechanical eye covered in blood.

Indeed… Silver was not a normal human.

"Detestable monster… to think it managed to damage to such an extent… Agh! I don't want to see their faces anymore, quickly kill them already!" he muttered.

"Alright boss…" said Ernesticia.

She pointed her hands at the two cubes as a vacuum force began to slowly emerge inside of the cubes… she did it slowly because she wanted their bodies to slowly be torn apart…

Abyss and Edward looked in despair at the situation… everything… all of it… it all went wrong.

"Edward… I am sorry for being… such a useless leader…" sighed Abyss.

"No… Lady Abyss… I am sorry for being so weak…" muttered Edward.

Facing their end with sorrow in their faces, Silver smiled back at them, as if they were nothing but scum to him ready to be butchered alive…

Were these pathetic people the ones that gave such big headaches to his boss? He couldn't believe it… they were so easy to trick and kill…

At the end, he triumphed…

All of it came out perfectly!

…

CLASH!

CLASH!

However, out of nowhere, two black claws made of chaos and demise fell over the spatial cubes over Edward and Abyss!

They were covered in black armor, and several materials of the Forbidden One's Fragments, being controlled from afar, they quickly used their incredible strength to crush the spatial cubes and shattered them into pieces!

CRAAAAASH!

"W-Whaaaat?!"

Ernesticia looked in shock at the scene as Brutus, Lucia, and Silver glanced at the enormous claws made of chaos and demise quickly rushing towards them!

FLAAAAASH!

"W-What are those things?!" asked Lucia.

"Fuck!" muttered Brutus, as he raised his axe and intercepted the two with a powerful swing of his axe, clashing against the two at the same time!

SLAAASH!

Their power was incredible and so was their resilience, the two were able to easily resist his powerful Axe Technique, while grabbing his axe and pushing him back with their strength!

Suddenly, the second one shaped itself as a fist and punched Brutus down into the water!

CLAAAAAASSHH!

"Uuuuagggghhh…!"

Brutus groaned in agony as his entire head was dislocated, and several of his bones broke due to the incredible attack! What's worse, it began to infect his entire body with miasma, which slowly started to burn his body by transforming into black flames!

SPLAAASH!

His entire body fell over the swamp ocean down below, as Silver, Lucia, and Ernesticia looked in horror at those gigantic claws!

They quickly flew without waiting any longer as, they stated to push them back!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"W-What are these things?! Someone is attacking us from a long distance?" asked Ernesticia.

"W-Who the heck…?! Ungh… Oi! Do something!" roared Silver at the frog.

The frog couldn't understand him, as Nesephise was unconscious to speak to the frog. He could even threaten it with the egg but the frog, without understanding his order, would never be able to get his meaning.

To the frog these claws looked interesting but were not a threat for her or her egg, which was farther away from her and flying more away from the claws to be kept secure, so it didn't particularly cared about anyone else…

Silver quickly realized that the frog's complexity was a bit too annoying, how come it couldn't understand him?!

Abyss and Edward were freed from their spatial cages, as the comforting voice of someone dear to them resonated behind them.

"I am sorry for being late…"
