Chapter 119 - Sacrifice

"Haha, since I can't harm you does not make you invincible kid" said the possessed as he continues to dodge attacks while heading in their direction.

"Listen up people, we have to protect Diana since she is the only one who can harm him" yell Jason as he tells them of his discovery.

After the announcement was made, everyone begins to head towards Diana as they begin to surround her from all sides to prevent the possessed from attacking her on her blind spot. Seeing the formation that they have made just to protect Diana, the possessed couldn't help but let out a laugh.

"Do you really think that you will be able to stop because of your numbers" said the possessed as he charged at them.

Releasing attack after attack on the possessed in the hope that they will be able to bring him down but unfortunately, their attacks just go through him. All this time that they were trying to get a hit on the possessed, he was slowly recovering his strength and he was beginning to take form.

"He needs to be taken down quickly before he completely regains his strength" advised the bracelet.

Now looking at the possessed as he was no longer floating in the air but was walking slowly toward them and whenever an attack was coming at him, he would effortlessly hit it to the side. And by now, they are finding it difficult to breathe due to the pressure that is coming from him.

"I don't see the reason why you are all scared, you are going to lose your life one way or the other anyway so why stand looking scared when the enemy has yet to recover completely" said Trace as he tries to motivate the crowd to continue with the attack.

"We have been trying to land an attack on him for some time and we have not been able to do so, what makes you think that we will be able to do that now that he is a lot stronger" asked Steven.

"Stop complaining you little child can't you see that he is no longer moving in the air, if we were to go at him, I am sure he will not be able to hold all of us back since he is now walking" said Jason as he points out the difference between when the possessed was still in his smoke form and when he has taken shape.

"I am still wondering why Sam failed to kill you Jason" replied Sam with a frown on his face as he was not happy that he had been called a child and by the person he hated the most.

"How can someone who can't beat those that are under him be able to beat me" replied Jason with a light chuckle.

"Can you guys focus on the danger that is in front of us" said Trace.

The possessed has a wide smile on his face as he begins to walk towards them with his hand stretched out and out of nowhere comes a sword that is made out of smoke. 

"I really want to thank you guys for letting me out of my prison and what is the better way to do that other than to send you lots on your way to the land of the dead" said the possessed.

"I don't know about them but I don't plan on accepting your appreciation" replied Jason as he took a step forward.

"I am sorry kid but you will have to accept it else I won't be happy that I am indebted to you" said the possessed.

"Then you can go dead at least then you would have to be" replied Jason as he charged forward as he swung the halberd at the possessed.

"Haha, I just got out of prison and you want me to die, come on shouldn't I at least live for some more days or months before thinking about that" said the possessed with a chuckle as he slash his sword at Jason incoming halberd.

"Thud Thud Thud" 

The sound of metal clashing could be heard as the two were engaged in a serious fight and seeing that Jason has been doing fine since he had clashed with the enemy, Adam began to give orders.

"We can't leave him to face that thing on his own, you two stay here and keep watch over her, the rest of you come let's go give him a hand.

After giving the order, Adam quickly went forward to give Jason a hand as the two members of his family which he left behind to protect Diana were both focused on the fight.

"Hahaha here comes more people for me to slaughter" said the possessed with an evil laugh as he sent a slash at Jason that was accompanied by black smoke.

Fending the attack away as he created some space between them as he tries to catch his breath while leaving Adam and the others to take over.

"I don't think that we will be able to last long against him" said Jason as he tried to catch his breath.

"The only you people will be able to beat him is if that girl will be able to join the fight but unfortunately for you guys, she is out of spiritual energy and would need some hours to recover twenty percent of her spiritual energy" commented the bracelet.

Jason turns to look at Diana to see how she is doing and to his surprise, her face was pale due to the amount of energy she has used to activate the lamp.

"With the state that she is in right now, I think she will need more than a day to recover twenty percent of her spiritual energy, and let's not forget about the lack of spiritual energy in the area" said Jason with a sigh.

"It would be a miracle if you guys would be able to hold him off for two hours not to talk of a day" replied the bracelet.

"Ahhhhhhhhh" 

Then came a scream and a body was seen crashing into the wall before it stopped moving and just like that someone was dead.

"We need to act quickly before we all end up dead" said Jason with a worried look on his face.

"There is a way to get her to recover her energy but it would be a small portion of it" replied the bracelet.

"Say it then, as long as it is enough to send him to his grave, we don't have to worry about the consequences" said Jason.

"Alright if you say so. You can let her consume the whole medicine pills that you have and although they are not for recovery spiritual energy but they still have some energy stored within and if she can absorb those energies, then she would be able to recover in no time" replied the bracelet.

"What, letting her go consume the whole pills is equivalent to us placing our lives on her hand" said Jason with a surprised look on his face.

"That is the only option that you guys have in surviving the fight unless you have another idea in mind" replied the bracelet.

Jason did not act quickly as he began to think if he should do according to what the bracelet said since they don't know how long they will be staying in the ruin and with all the danger, it would be difficult to survive without the pills to heal their wounds.

"Those that still have pills on them, please lend it to me" said Jason after thinking things through.

"Sorry man but there is no way that I am giving my pills out" replies Steven.

"If you want to die, then you can keep it to yourself but also remember that I can still take it from you after your death" said Jason in all seriousness.

Seeing that Jason was being serious, Steven quickly passed his pills to him. It didn't take long before Jason was able to take the pills from everyone including those that were already dead before going to meet Diana as he squatted in front of her.

"Hey Diane, I want you to take these pills and try to absorb the energy that is within it and be quick with it before we lose our life" said Jason.

Diana was looking at him with her pale face as she was trying to understand how he was able to come up with the idea of consuming pills to recover her energy but she didn't think of it for too long before she took them from Jason as she nodded to him with a weak smile on her face before throwing some pills in her mouth and closed her eyes to concentrate.

"You guys better take good care of her while she consumes those pills" said Jason as he rose before going to join the others battle the possessed while leaving Diana to absorb the energy.
