Chapter 1087: To Kill Him



The amalgam let out a sigh.

Benzard had been about to say something to him - mostly concerning who he had been talking to when the ebony waters splashed, revealing two figures, both of whom had pungent-smelling steam rising from their bodies.

Pherdanta and Yuyui rose to stand over the ebony waters.

The former had been fully revived, flesh and all, armour and all.

Her survival staggered Benzard. He could have sworn he had seen her get ripped to shreds minutes ago.

Yuyui helped the Unlimited up and was soon joined by Vohnvolt on the task. Pherdanta was still in shock. Unlike Yuyui, she wasn't used to dying, and the manner in which she had been killed had scarred her for life. Having her soul get ripped apart like a roll of paper, was a truly agonising experience and it would not leave her anytime soon.

"Master?" Pherdanta said with a distant gaze.

"You're alright," Vohnvolt said as he looked into her eyes.

She did the same and her eyes widened. She gleaned something from his sockets and turned paler than she already was.

Pherdanta gripped the amalgam's hand shakily.

"It... it was my idea! I really thought we could pull it off if we worked together! I thought we could prove ourselves! I... I... even hoped that the fact that we could die once without having to worry would further add to our advantage, but...!" she cried.

Vohnvolt held her tight.

"Calm down," he said, but she refused.

"I can't, Master! I know! I know she died!" Pherdanta seemed to bleed out all her fervour as she said this, her eyes not leaving the amalgam's sockets.

Vohnvolt sighed flame.

Pherdanta was rather attentive. Out of all the Unlimited, she was able to discern his thoughts and feelings through the behaviour socket flames best. She took her duty as the hidden sword of her Master seriously and now, it paid off in a manner Vohnvolt hadn't expected.

The female Unlimited had noticed with a simple stare into Vohnvolt's eyes that someone died. Someone who couldn't come back.

Eaniss immediately understood what the amalgam was talking about, though she was stunned that Actuass could create Rules. She hadn't seen him do such a thing, after all, same as the Bishop.

Benzard, on the other hand, was surprised by this in addition to the fact that everyone here seemed to know that the most of the Deities weren't present in Aigas.

"Well then, if we can help it, how about we use the original plan I suggested," Eaniss said. "We force this damn necromancer into a struggle of Territories. If we use that one bestial subordinate of yours who was able to clash Territories with multiple Faction Leaders at once, we could hit him where it hurts."

Indeed, Eaniss had suggested this before.

She was thinking that now incorporating Baddan into the plan would work in their favour.

"What about the finishing blow? This man is hard to kill. Not to mention, he has a lot of help," Benzard said with an uncertain frown.

Eaniss looked at him.

"Either you or I could deal the final blow. You were able to casually overwhelm the masked man in his Territory when it came to close quarters combat. I doubt even ten million undead could stop you on your way to dealing him a fatal blow," she said before wincing lightly at the pain from her inflated soul. "If that doesn't work, I will have to step in. While my way is more surefire in terms of killing, it is a lot more... niche. If I can get close to him, he's as good as

dead."

Vohnvolt looked at Eaniss quizzically.

Really?

While he didn't know much about Eaniss' powers except the multiple, dark humanoid figures she could conjure, he wasn't sure killing Actuass was as simple as she made it seem.

"If that is the case, then fine," he said. "I promised something in exchange for your help. If all you need is to get close, Yuyui can assist with that. Whichever of you wants to take the final shot, you can, you can take a crack at it. However, just in case, I'll be preparing something of

my own."

A dark presence suffused from the amalgam, his sockets lividly flaring.

"I have a score to settle, and if things go well, I might just beat you all to the punch."

As he spoke, Yagrina and Bassbion approached, as did Baddan and Grim.

The sizable number of experts would all have a role to play in the final stretch.
