Chapter 820 - Advent Of The King III

Adrian entered the event at the same time that the players got inside of their gaming pods. In fact, he also knew the backstory of his character. What he did not know is that the gods and goddesses of Pandemonium had a different script to that of what is his character.

His character right now is the King of Twilight, Hay-lale. The progenitor god of the beings that controlled light and darkness. In fact, his demise is tragic because he got usurped by the infamous Goddess of Light and the God of Darkness.

He did not think that the two students that he nurtured would be the sole reason of his own undoing. As the universe kept expanding, just having one god that governs over light and darkness has become a burden to the God of Light and Darkness, Hay-lale.

He nurtured two gifted individuals in order to support him in governing light and darkness. The two are none other than Luminaria and Scotus. This was before the time where the dark gods came to Pandemonium.

"To think that the traitor to his mentor is the one speaking as if the King of Twilight Hay-lale is evil. The Goddess of Light Luminaria is really not a benevolent goddess but at least she had the acting chops for it." Adrian muttered.

From what Adrian is told, the King of Twilight encountered a dark god first, but she is not a spy. That dark goddess also ran away from the cruelty of the other dark gods as she had a different mindset compared to them. Needless to say, the King of Twilight and this runaway dark goddess have come to love each other.

Luminaria, who was already a demigoddess at that time, told the secret of her mentor in order to denounce her master. The Primordial Gods banished the Dark Goddess to a place unknown while the King of Twilight got stripped of his authority to rule over light and darkness.

Luminaria thought that she already won when she inherited the Authority of Light from the King of Twilight, but she thought wrong. The King of Twilight is one of the primordial gods that came to be after the first three gods were born. Hay-lale was the personification of light and darkness itself.

This is the reason why he can only be sealed to the farthest corner of the universe. If he dies, then the light and darkness of all the universe will become chaotic or vanish without a trace. Despite not liking that judgement, the new Goddess of Light had to accept the proposal, but she also used the first of her new creations to guard the gates of the seal.

"I believe that this Megiddo world would be real in Pandemonium, but it should not be easily accessible. A sealed god there meant that the security would be full of angels. I will just look into it when I am more powerful enough." Adrian thought to himself as his view finally changed to that of six screens.

The contestants finally chose the teleportation ports and that meant that combat immediately started. He did not expect that the first groups that arrived to each of his soulbounds are impatient. The moment that the United States team entered the gate and appeared before Kanlaon, they started attacking which prompted him to combat as well.

"Seriously! All of them had lines that they would have to say first. I even thought so hard on what they needed to say, and it all became nothing in the end." Adrian muttered as he became a bit peeved on what happened.

=====

The moment that the United States team entered the altar that they chose, they immediately started combat. Aisha unleashed a flurry of elemental arrows at the giant dragon that seems to be meditating above them. The dragon looked at them and immediately attacked after it got hit by the elemental arrows.

The dragon gathered its power in its mouth as it its preparing for a breath attack. Particles of light and dark element started gathering in the mouth of the dragon, but Null would not let that happen. She casted her long-range spell called Spell Break.

She wanted to attempt to cancel the magic that is being collected by the dragon, but it did not activate the way that she wanted it to. It only slowed down the accumulation of the two elements instead. Her team members did not blame her for this as they knew that a dragon would not be the ideal target for spell cancellation magic as they are masters of magic themselves.

Even if she only slowed down the breath attack, it is enough for all of her team members to do something. Totem immediately used two possessions which are the mammoth and the bear. With his newly boosted strength, he charged towards the dragon fearlessly. With an uppercut to the mouth, the dragon's jaw got redirected when it unleashed its breath attack.

Poison Ivy did not waste any effort and summoned all the supporting soulbounds that she has in order to boost her team members. Shado, in particular, started to search for the dragon's reverse scale as he wanted to find the weakness of the giant beast.

"They are good! Let us try this then. Blight!" Adrian muttered as he told Kanlaon to use one of his five skills.

The organizers needed to limit the skill usage of all of Adrian's soulbounds to five as they are already powerful with just those and the boost. The skills that Kanlaon maintained are his Dragon Breath, Master of Two Elements, Dragon Scale, Reverse Scale and Elemental Discharge.

Each of the skill also got renamed to make sure that the theme of their new forms is fine. The Blight skill is a combination of light and darkness that is released which is the Elemental Discharge skill.. A wave of light and darkness suddenly enveloped the whole altar as Kanlaon released this burst of energy.
