Chapter 1227 The Secret Lake II

The porcelain mask was not destroyed by Sirius as the former envoy of night made sure that it will never be destroyed. The shadow body of the former envoy of night might have been torn to pieces but the porcelain mask suddenly floated in mid-air to gather the shadows. Sirius is annoyed by this interaction and decided to destroy the porcelain mask, but he is unable to.

Sirius tried reaching the porcelain mask as he noticed that it is the source of power of the former envoy of night, but his Realm Ender ended. Sirius is suddenly overcome by fatigue which made the former envoy of night try and deal a killing blow to him, but a pillar of water suddenly surged below the latter.

The giant serpentine monster seemed to have attacked the former envoy of night when the latter wanted to kill Sirius. The former envoy of night is deterred by the sudden pillar of water hitting it directly as its shadow body scattered but its porcelain mask remained unharmed. The giant serpentine monster roared as it cannot deal fatal damage to the former envoy of night.

The body of the former envoy of night suddenly came back once more as if it did not get damaged. Seeing that two monsters are attempting to kill it; the former envoy of night suddenly created another porcelain mask out of nowhere. The second porcelain mask is different to the first one as it has the face of happiness while the first had a stoic expression painted on it.

"Saena, use Sun Flare!" Adrian shouted as Saena's magic circle suddenly appeared below the former envoy of night.

Saena immediately let loose a burst of powerful sunlight when she came out of her magic circle. The burst of sunlight washed away all the shadows or energy of darkness in the area. The body made of shadows created by the former envoy of night suddenly vanished as only the mask remains.

Adrian then summoned his Primordial Armament: Spear and directed it to destroy the porcelain masks. Adrian only managed to destroy the porcelain mask that has the happy face on it. He was able to hit the one with a stoic expression, but it was covered with a layer of defensive barriers.

'ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N ovelBi(n)',

Adrian did see something good though as he saw a small crack that he made on the stoic porcelain mask. The former envoy of night panicked as its vessel suddenly cracked. The former envoy of night then looked at Adrian's direction and released a powerful killing intent because it can remember Adrian.

The former envoy of night clearly remembers the demon that ruined its chance to reverse time on itself. It wanted to return to its former form before it became cursed by the Goddess of Night. It would have succeeded if not for a demon that had the candle of the Goddess of Night.

The former envoy of night knew that the demon was its bounty hunter, but the latter was still weak back then. Now, the bounty hunter that wanted to kill it has returned and even more powerful than before. The former envoy of night can even feel divinity from Adrian as it also collected some divine energy on its road to return back to its former self.

"You shall pay for this! I will have my revenge against you demon who is a hunting dog of that distasteful goddess." The former envoy of night stated in a female voice.

It seems that the former envoy of night has started to revert back to her previous self but is still not complete. She is collecting divine energy to counteract the curse of another divine being which is a god. She has been collecting artifacts or killing beasts with divine energy to supplement the needed energy to revert her back.

She then created a black void as she wants to escape from this area since she knows that she will never win. Adrian chuckled as he already expected this to happen when battling the former envoy of night. Adrian supplied the Cube of Paradox with half of his mana to lock the space in the area.

"I might not have been able to prepare that much against you, but I made sure that you will never escape our encounter." Adrian stated as space itself froze in the area.

The black void that the former envoy of night created suddenly exploded as it is connected to another space. Adrian might be smiling but the most he can do is one minute because freezing space is not easy. If he was Ascalor then it might have been easy, but he just became an Arch Demon.

"Saena, use Sun's Warmth and Cleansing Light!" Adrian commanded. Saena once again exploded in the energy of the sun.

[Nychta, the Former Envoy of the Goddess of Night, has 15% reduced stats for five minutes.]

[Sirius has been healed.]

[Sirius' stats have returned back to normal.]

Nychta's shadow body once again fizzled out when she was hit by the burst of sunlight that Saena created. Adrian saw that the shadow body actually retreated inside of the porcelain mask instead of getting destroyed which means her real body is the mask.

"I must act fast." Adrian thought as he once again used his spear to try and pierce the porcelain mask but is once again met with great resistance.

The porcelain mask is Nychta's true body and is not just a simple vessel. Her curse is actually to become the shadow that she loved to control. Her body slowly turned into shadows throughout the centuries as she is no longer a mortal once her body started transforming.

As years go by, Nychta's senses vanished bit by bit as her whole body turns into shadows. Her ultimate punishment is to become a shadow that feels or sees nothing and to also completely forget who she ever was. Her curse would have been successful if she did not bump into another cursed item called the Stoic Porcelain Mask.
