Chapter 473 - 473: Death godly essence

Bang!

The two gigantic beasts smashed into each other, successfully creating thunderclap sounds that shook the entire space around them. The beyond watched as the massive black serpent maneuvered through the fiery green wolf, successfully evading all of its attacks and wrapping itself around it.

"YOU DARE!" Derik's cries came in form of a growl which sounded like loud explosions!

BOOM!

Instantly the blazing green flame around him grew fiercer and brighter, forcing the serpent to retreat in fear.

WHOOSH!

Derik took the initiative to revert to his human form since he long noticed that the Lycan form was not suitable for beasts that possess terrifying speed and flexibility.

"You wish to fight the man you once called master? HOW BOLD OF YOU!" Derik growled as he clasped his hands and countless massive magic arrays appeared.

"Death magic: Shadow bind!" He growled as numerous black chains shot out of them, shooting towards Blake.

"If this is your sorry attempt to kill me then I apologize, I overestimated you!" The massive black serpent hissed as a massive golden magic array appeared above him and from it, a majestic golden gate appeared!

"Life magic: Heaven's gate!"  Blake hissed as the gate appeared.

Bind!

Instantly, countless golden chains shot out of the gate, clashing with the black chains and ultimately shattering them almost instantly.

"Cyrus…" Derik couldn't help but gasp as he saw the incoming golden chains and memories of his battles with Cyrus in the past resurfaced in his mind.

He failed to understand how nature would let an abomination like Blake exist but thinking deeply about it, Derik came to the conclusion that Blake was nature now so nothing can harm him. With the abilities of the new gods and the old gods, he has become a being that even the beyond has to treat with respect. Although Derik couldn't tell how or why the beyond chose to invest so much in Blake when there is a chance that the young lad will betray her.

"Don't get c.o.c.ky, boy!" Derik chose to switch his method of approach now.

Clasping his hands one mighty scorching sun formed in front of him and shot forward, incinerating all the golden chains in its path. Since his death magic was working against the life magic, he chose to take a different approach when dealing with his enemy 

Watching the massive sun growing as it moved, Blake quickly reverted to his human form while conjuring numerous walls of water but the massive sun just smashed through everything while shooting towards him.

"Moon magic: three worlds collide!" Derik's angered voice reached his ears.

Almost instantly, three massive moons appeared from the side, smashing into Blake and blocking all his escape routes. He could only stand and wait for the massive sun to reach him while trying to repel the three moons about to crush him.

"In the end, you were still weaker than my successor!" Derik sneered as the scorching sun, smashed into the three fake moons.

He was about to turn his attention to the beyond but then he felt something off! Or rather, something familiar. A darkish purple aura surged out of every available space found! Derik watched the fake moons and the massive sun slowly withers away quite easily. His face twisted and reddened due to anger as he gazed at Blake and screamed.

"You will return my godly essence… Now!"

____________________________

Blink and the rest of the team were led towards the Lucardo clan gate and just like Blink suspected, there was an anti-spatial magic seal, placed outside the gates that prevent spatial mages from using their abilities, until they have passed through the gates. 

His team was surrounded by the twenty or so black knights but the black knights seemed to be the nervous ones. Blink followed them until the large stone gate with plenty of guards stationed at the wall with their bows and spears pointed at them. Seeing this, Clovis and Blink chuckled, causing the black guards to stiffen. 

In front of the gate, they were forced to wait while the captain moved forward to meet the guards stationed at the gate. After a minute or two of discussion, he signaled the rest of the troops, and the gate was opened for them to pass.

"I guess it's time to leave" Clovis chuckled.

"Yep… I don't plan to get dumped in a stinking cell for a day or two or even a weak before the clan head decides to hear us out" Blink frowned.

The moment they walked past the gate they were greeted by at least fifty knights with spears, only then did the confidence of the two stripped captain return as he turned towards them with a hint of disdain in his eyes as he spoke.

"You two may be powerful mages but you cannot do as you please here! We are the Lucardo family and we answer to no one! On your knees!" He growled.

"Pardon?" Blink replied with a raised eyebrow.

"ARE YOU DEAF? I SAID ON YO…" 

Puff!

Before he could finish speaking, his head was cleanly removed from his neck by Blink's death scythe. Instantly, a golden dome appeared around Blink and the other ten mages/ warriors, protecting them from the ranged attacks fired at them.

"They still use bows and arrows in this era? If it were back home, you will be greeted by a giant golden sword the size of a small mountain or a power bolt of purple lightning or a powerful green aura spear!" Clovis complained.

"As much as I would love to show these people what real power looks like, I think it's best we don't cause too much trouble… that way the family head will be more willing to work with us" Blink shook his head as he spoke. 

All twelve of them ignored the attacks and spells bombarding the golden dome since they were sure none of it would be able to penetrate.

"Let's go then" Blink said as he opened a dimensional corridor leading.

At the end of the dimensional corridor was the throne room of the Lucardo clan head!
