Chapter 801 Breaking The Seal

Chapter 801 Breaking The Seal

The beavers stood around a large blue-glowing pond in the middle of a large cavern, watching the crack in the circular dam they formed around it. "There is a crack forming here! Start the patching process!" A beaver screamed and half of them rushed in with wood and started nibbling at the dam.

They removed the cracked wooden panel and replaced it in less than a minute, seeing them work looked like trained racing mechanics changing the car's tires in the blink of an eye. Those beavers trained their whole life for the sole reason of repairing this dam and making sure it never breaks.

The dam was here for centuries and in that time they optimized their process to the point that what would take humans a year to fix now takes the beaver monks and shamans no longer than a minute. Teamwork, the hardwood of the mana-rich fungus growing around the pond, and the tireless enchantments the shamans kept casting, everything worked like a precise clock.

The dam got fixed in a minute and a half, and the shaman old beaver woman growled, "Damn it Filo! Damn you Bevalina! Why the interruption, you know we're too busy, this fix took half a minute longer as she wasn't here doing her job." Since Filo went to check who opened the gate, her spot in the work chain was left empty causing a large delay.

"The chance of the dam breaking is low now. Someone go bring her without a word, drag her back by the tail." She growled, pointing her cane at the cave leading to the gate. But then, she fell silent.

Two purple eyes appeared in the darkness, standing several beavers tall, it was clear it wasn't a beaver. She started sweating, "There is a barrier here that kills anything that isn't a beaver." Her old arms started shaking as Arad's face slowly appeared out of the darkness.

Even Tempo had stayed back as he sensed the barrier covering the seal's room.

"Don't go in there! You'll die!" Filo cried, standing back with Flatail as they watched Arad slowly walk toward the room.

Arad's foot finally landed in the room, pushing onto the barrier. A heavy wave of divine magic left by the ancient gods washed over Arad's skin, burning in a hazy golden mist, a contentious divine smite that kills anything that isn't a beaver. His skin burned to the bone as he kept walking forward, his flesh regenerating at a blinding rate to keep up with the damage.

With each step, his body flashed like a welding arc, but he didn't even slow down, walking straight toward the beaver shaman with a straight face. The beavers all ran back, staring at the monster that just come in.

"It can't be...this barrier, can't fail!" The shaman cried, "I do not care." Arad stood in front of her face, tanking the whole barrier as he glared at her, the glow of his purple eyes getting through the endless flash of the divine magic.

"Such vast divine magic, it treats everything that isn't a beaver the same. Humans, titans, and everyone would get burned by it just like vampires and undead. I can't survive it for a second, I doubt even Vlad could walk in there, he'll evaporate right upon contact." His eyes opened wide, "I see, so that's way." He did manage to grasp a faint understanding of what Arad was doing.

"I see... I was the idiot for thinking you coming here in a weakened state was wrong. Even in this state, you almost can't be killed by normal means."

Since Arad took Vlad's entire army inside of him, he managed to achieve something that's only possible for a creature like him. While Vlad had an immense regeneration, he was achieving it by using captive humans inside of him to siphon blood and heal. Arad had another approach only possible as he's a massive dragon with a lot of blood and health.

Tempo was still standing outside the barrier as he couldn't walk in, but he kept a close eye on Arad and was the first one Tempo was still standing outside the barrier as he couldn't walk in, but he kept a close eye on Arad and was the first one to notice. Arad isn't going to just reduce the water level to a manageable state.

"Arad! Don't do it! It's dangerous even for you!" He shouted.

All the beavers stared at Arad sipping the pool's water. He sat up and opened his mouth, the void inside his stomach pulled the mana water at a rapid speed like a vacuum cleaner. The inside of his stomach was made of a near-endless void, as long as he shoved the mana water into a single spot away from everything else, he could keep it there safely the same way he was keeping the accursed pillar of cursed metal.

All the beavers cried with gaping mouths, unable to believe their eyes as the water level dropped rapidly.

"You're freeing the monster!" Galina cried.

The pond dried in seconds, and Arad stood as the barrier crumbled now that its source of energy disappeared. Tempo could finally walk inside, but Arad had already jumped down to the pond's bottom.

"He's getting out anyway, so what's the difference." Arad walked with a smile on his face, staring at the black, twisted, and bloodied created slowly rising from the ground.

"And..." The abomination growled as Arad approached, "After I spent all those years, pouring mana in to burst this seal open..." He writhed, wigging as he stood like a worm. "You came and freed me at once." His two glowing white eyes stared at Arad with a deathly stare.

"What are you? No mortal should be able to achieve that." The abomination slowly took a vaguely humanoid shape, pointing a finger at Arad.

"I'm a void dragon, and I'm here to put an end to you."

"The cosmic police? I've heard of you from the inside of my seal, massive dragons that protect the realms of existence." The abomination took the form of a young man with short black hair and pale white eyes akin to those of zombies. "I'm a bit thankful for saving me the hassle of fully breaking the seal so I'll let you go."

"That I can't do." Arad replied with a gentle smile. "You're a threat to my family, and must be dealt with."

"You can't kill me. I'm so beautiful I could create gods." The abomination said with a smile as clothes covered his body. "Do you want to become a god? I can help skip becoming a demigod. I'll even spare your while lineage." He extended his hand to Arad.

"Beautiful? To my eyes, I've never seen something so ugly to be this revolting. I don't need godhood."
