Just like Ascalor that went to combat the Horseman of Death, the other two elders of the Daemos Race have gone to subdue the other two. The players trying to kill the Horseman of Famine and Horseman of Pestilence are shocked upon the arrival of the Daemos Elders but are overjoyed when they helped in attacking the horsemen.
The joy was short lived though as the Daemos elders experienced what Ascalor has as well. An orb of light could be seen floating near them and exploding into a brilliant light. When the light faded, the Daemos elder has also disappeared from their sight which shocked everyone.
The Daemos Elders vanished because of a flash of light, and no one knew where they went. The plan of the players was to use the assistance of the Daemos elders to their utmost advantage but that suddenly went to smoke when they vanished. Nobody knows where they went but their slight appearance of the battlefield was enough to give the players a slight advantage.
"You have done well, Mikayla. Your brother will be proud of you as we are one step closer to open the gates to the Silver City." Pristina stated but the female angel that holds a sphere made a snort as she does not really want to work with Pristina.
"To think that they were this easy to trap. It seems that those Daemos Elders are not as infamous as they say they are." Sephalia stated as she scoffed at the thought that the Daemos Elders are weak.
"You are only saying that because you are not the one containing them in the Prison of Light. I am already getting aid from twenty other angels. These three old monsters are not even actively trying to get out and are actually studying the Prison of Light." Mikayla stated as she has observed that the three elders do not seem to be in a hurry to escape.
Just as Mikayla said, the three Daemos Elders were not in a hurry to escape because they were bashing themselves. They were throwing harsh words at each other because they were caught by a spell that traps them in a dimension that uses light as a medium. Granted that they could not wield the light element, they are still harsh because they knew that were trapped by a spell that uses space.
"To think that an Archdemon of Space would get trapped with us in a confines space. Kekeke. It seems that you are getting old, Ascalor. You should retire by now and get married while you are at it." Koronn teased as he is also in his true form.
"Should you not worry even more that a master of space like Ascalor got caught up in the spell? This means that whoever trapped us here has great mastery over this enclosed space made of light. They are powerful enough to trap Ascalor of all people." Bronx stated as he looked at a more worrying thought.
"It is not that I was caught unaware, but I wanted to know who would even dare such a thing. I let myself get caught because I wanted to know the identity of the ones pulling the strings behind this incident. The Horsemen of the Apocalypse should not have been revived in the first place." Ascalor stated but Koronn does not believe what he is saying.
"Just admit that you got careless and captured. Is it really that difficult to admit?" Koronn grumbled but Ascalor's next question made him speechless as well.
"What is your excuse then? You are powerful enough to split time and control it easily, yet you also got transported here." Ascalor stated as he looked at Koronn with the same judging eyes that he got glanced upon.
"I also let myself get captured." Koronn stated with great conviction.
"These two!" Bronx stated as he sighed.
"Anyways, this space has been carefully constructed to be impenetrable from the inside and out. There is only one flaw in the spell though." Ascalor stated.
"If you mean flaw then you mean that?!" Koronn stated as he hinted at the same thought that Ascalor has.
"The flaw would be the prison is made using the same type of mana but different sources. Any spell created like this will undoubtedly be weaker if the one using it is not supplying all the mana themselves as stability is faulty when you need to work with others. Just one gentle push and this prison made of light will collapse." Ascalor stated and he made sure that the one using the spell is hearing the correct things.
Mikayla's eyebrow twitched upon Ascalor saying that sentence as the spell she is proud of has become a subject of mockery. She made sure to check the stability that Ascalor is questioning, and she really did find such flaws, but her pride made her unable to accept the situation. Even if she lacked in the space department of magic, she is the best when it comes to handling light magic.
"I will make these old fogeys suffer!" Mikayla thought as she used her own mana to create an attack in the Prison of Light.
Mikayla then made use of more mana to send Light Rays inside the Prison of Light. She also made use of mana from her other angel followers but not to the point that they will lose control of the Prison of Light as well. Mikayla is different from the other angels because she has two talents just like her brother who is the leader of the angels.
The only reason that she is helping Pristina is due to the fact that she wants to release all the angels as well. She is not also happy that she is helping her because she knows that Pristina is an angel that wants power for herself. She is only doing this because she might get promoted again with the help of her brother, Michael.
Just as Mikayla is using numerous Light Ray spells to attempt at injuring the Daemos Elders, she noticed that the spells are note even reaching their intended targets. The Light Rays are actually hitting an invisible barrier that the largest Daemos Elder is generating. The barrier is made of some sort of invisible force that can make anything that hit disintegrate.
"That should be the Force Barrier that is a famous ability of the Daemos." Pristina stated as she is also looking at the Light Ball that is being held by Mikayla.
"Force Barrier?" Mikayla asked as she has never really met a Daemos in person or fought one. She has been sheltered by her big brother her whole life. She also grew up thinking that her big brother is the best in the world and took a hard toll when they were separated by the seal on the Gate of the Silver City.
"The Force Barrier is just what you can say it is made of. A barrier made of Force which is the energy of motion. It can either be Potential or Static as it depends on what type of attack is needed to protect against. Since you are using elemental magic, that Force barrier is made of Potential Energy that can freeze any elemental attack. If the Force barrier is made using Kinetic Energy, then it can protect against physical attacks." Pristina explained.
Mikayla does not want to believe it but a barrier that can perfectly nullify one type of attack is definitely powerful. Even her brother would be held up a bit if that is used on him, but she believes that her brother will be fine as he can use both magic and physical attacks. The only problem for her is that she can only use magic as she finds it troublesome to wield weapons.
Pristina looked at Mikayla and calculated her next move. She knows that Mikayla does not have a favorable impression of her, but she wants the latter to trust her. If Mikayla becomes close to her then Michael might actually give her more power through the right of Brilliant Baptism that can only be done by the Envoy of Light.
"I think that is enough waiting and investigating. Do you two agree?" Ascalor stated.
"I agree as we now have a great clue on who really trapped us and the possible mastermind behind the awakening of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse." Koronn stated.
"We must return as well because news of our disappearance might bother the Daemos Corps. My son might be the current de facto leader when I am gone but he cannot handle everything himself just yet. I have yet to perfectly train him in the ways of a commander." Bronx stated as he also needed to return.
"We must also put a stop to those rampaging anomalies. We only let them walk at first as they have yet to disturb the natural balance, but they have done more damage than anticipated. They must be removed." Ascalor stated as he suddenly emitted a strong burst of energy.
