Chapter 161 - The Abyss Part 4

Liam told her what he had seen because he did not really know what had happened : "At the beginning nothing happened, Anaya has caught you and she told us that you were probably still conscious but in your sea of consciousness.

Then the energy of the shield and the one contained in the scepter were sucked by your divine door.

The shield has gone and the scepter transformed back into your two daggers.

We thought it was over but a beam of light passed through your divine door and got connected with Anaya.

When the beam disappeared you woke up and Anaya came out of her torpor."

Alec added : "It's not really all, you both level up to level eight within seconds when this beam of light connected you to each other."

Celia couldn't believe it, she repeated : "Level eight, but I didn't feel anything at all, i had just wished that Anaya could be here to draw the face of the men i saw standing by the side of the demon god."

Anaya was shocked by this revelation : "I didn't feel anything either, and do you think that why i saw again this vision, because you wanted me to see it."

Aiden looked at them and said helplessly : "Anyway, we will have time to talk about it later, at least it was worth our time to come here, Cel found a new energy, the universe energy, and they both gained two levels ... Let's continue, I'm really curious to know who could have created this kind of trap."

Basile returned to Aiden's arms saying excitedly : "Treasure ... Treasure ... Treasure."

Celia laughed and said : "Aiden is right, I'm also curious as to who could have used the pentagram symbol in this way, let's go !"

Anaya helped her to get up and asked her : "Are you sure you're okay, you have coughed up blood and bleed from your nose so how are you feeling ?"

Celia smiled at her and kissed her quickly on the lips, she said as she took Gabin in her arms : "Sweetie, I m perfectly fine, that new energy was very taxing to use, but after absorbing it I feel great."

Anaya caressed her cheek tenderly and said : "Okay my love, if you say so."

There was only one entrance to this cave, this passage was quite wide but it was a bit spooky, so Anaya with her light energy created little golden balls to the delight of her children who clapped and tried to catching them.

Of course Anaya made sure that the balls did not approach them too close because after all these balls of light were very dangerous especially for those who had darkness energy.

They went deeper into the cave and suddenly Aiden handed Basile to Liam and stood in front of the girls motioning for them to stop.

Celia didn't understand why Aiden had reacted like this, but soon enough she felt it too, this darkness energy was even stronger than the one Basile had, Celia felt completely oppressed by this energy, she began to shake helplessly.

Anaya came to support her and created a force field with her light energy to block some of this darkness energy, and it worked, although Celia could still feel it, it was no longer oppressive.

Celia exclaimed first : "What was that ? Aiden do you have any idea ?"

Aiden was confused so he said : "I can't feel any reserve of energy so there is no one out there, I can lead the way to that darkness energy, it is probably coming from a weapon."

Celia looked at Liam and Alec to know what did they think about it and Liam answered her silent question : "I think it's okay, Aiden can't be wrong his hunting skills is far beyond mine."

Anaya said : "It's okay my love, we are already there, let's go see what is inside that cave."

Celia nodded and everyone followed Aiden, when they came to an intersection Aiden turned right and Celia who was using her super perception to track down that darkness energy too, couldn't help but mark a stop.

As much in the right tunnel Celia could perceive the shadows of this darkness energy, as much she felt drawn into the left tunnel where a silver halo seemed to shine at the bottom.

Celia ended up following Aiden who had seen her hesitation and had stopped to wait for her, she said to everyone : "We will also have to go to the other side, I saw a silver halo there, at the back of the tunnel."

They all nodded and continued to follow Aiden and the golden balls that was clearing the way.

After ten minutes, where even the children had stopped playing or even making noise, they came to an opening which led them into a large room.

In this room was a giant pentagram drawn on the floor, and at its center was a long fully black sword that was held in place by golden chains of energy, that was coming from each corner of this pentagram.

The power of this sword was really terrifying, Aiden couldn't believe his own eyes, he absolutely had to explain to everyone what this sword was : "I know this sword, actually all the demons that grew up in Inferno know this sword, it is the Sword of Chaos."

Celia looked at Aiden who had stopped to speak, he seemed completely petrified, she touched his shoulder and made him understand to continue his explanation, so he said : "It was the supreme weapon of the demon god, it was lost during the last war, the one that sealed Inferno and isolated us from the rest of the universe.

Legend has it that whoever would bring this sword back will be the next demon god, and will reign over Inferno and the whole universe."

Celia, while Aiden was finishing his explanation, saw something strange, the darkness energy contained in this sword seemed to be focused on a precise point.

She has had just enough time to use five green papers of universe energy to form a shield around them when that energy began to attack them relentlessly.

Celia was concentrating on her shield which looked like it was holding on for the moment when she heard Liam swearing.

She turned and saw that Basile had his eyes completely black and that he was floating in the air with his darkness energy that was shielding him, he raised his little hands in front of him and shouted : "Bad."

It was then that a powerful darkness energy came out of Basile's hands, it broke Celia's shield and neutralized that sword's darkness energy within seconds.
