Chris, Erdrich, and Elfriedden clashed against the incoming army of monsters. Their gigantic arms descended, making the ground tremble as they tried to crush them into minced flesh. The boys barely evaded, using the strength of their bodies and the basic stats that granted them superhuman reflexes.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
The blazing arms of Elfriedden's mother rushed down, as the young man leaped into his mother's arms and then swung his long, spear-like needle against her. A barrage of powerful piercing blows pierced through it all, detaching the entire arm within seconds.
CRASH!
"GRUOOHH!"
The monstrous mother screamed in agony, blood coming out of her wound as she fell to her knees, only to open her jaws and release a blast of infernal flames into Elfriedden's body.
The elf's eyes widened, preparing himself for his death, only for Erdrich to appear in front of him and punch the flames away.
BAAAM!
He didn't say a word, Elfriedden either, but they looked at each other's eyes, and knew they could rely on their friends.
Chris was the same, his axe cutting through the limbs of the aberrations, evading hitting their necks and heads.
Even now, all three of them couldn't bring themselves to kill these people.
At the end, they were going to die, but would slow them down, as much as possible.
They kept clashing, being pushed back more and more.
Their bones started cracking due to the enormous blows they had to block, their foot started burning and bleeding due to the sheer amount of pressure they put them.
Their muscles started being torn apart, their entire bodies were riddled with wounds infected with demonic energy.
They were dying.
"We can't let them get closer to Eric and the rest...!" Chris thought. "I have to keep fighting... I've been always a useless piece of shit my entire life! I can't..."
Suddenly, the image of Frederica appeared inside of his mind.
Perhaps the only girl that seemed to genuinely like him... Discover hidden content at m,v l'e-novelhall.net
He had planned to marry her even.
But he was going to die now.
"I'm sorry, Frederica..."
His body didn't respond to him anymore, as he fell from the ground, a giant fist crushing him into the floor.
BAAAM!
"Uuaagh...!"
Chris felt his internal organs twisting and exploding, as he vomited blood, his two arms were broken, his legs torn apart.
"CHRIS!"
Erdrich and Elfriedden were too far away.
They ran to his help, to at least die with him, but the aberrations got in the way.
Cattalina tried to reach them from the skies, but several flying aberrations targeted her, constantly stopping her.
Chris faced death as a dozen aberrations hands rushed towards him.
"Blake..." he muttered. "I wonder... where are you... buddy..."
CRAAASH!
Scales of gold and silver grew over his arms and legs.
His handsome and divine face looked down at everyone.
It was as if a true deity had descended from the skies!
"Is that...?" Elfriedden muttered.
"B-Blake?" Erdrich asked.
"This curse, I will undo it."
With a single word, Blake's command willed itself into existence. His Creation powers, through his transformation, temporarily achieved their peak.
FLASH!
His divine rainbow light cleansed all the aberrations, their bodies having fallen into the ground and healed, quickly returned to their original forms.
Hundreds of thousands of innocent elves appeared, covering the streets.
"H-He did it..." Erika smiled.
"Blake..." Eric muttered.
"Blake... please!" Elfriedden called. "Chris... He...!"
Blake suddenly appeared above them within a split second, teleporting through space.
He looked down at the remains of his friends.
His face full of indifference twisted in one of sorrow.
"My friend..."
He descended and put his hands above, divine rainbow essence surged.
The body of Chris, his remains, all gathered together, his body being remade completely.
His soul was then placed back into his body, as Blake carried Chris on his arms.
It was a miracle that only the very gods could ever accomplish.
Something so utterly impossible and incredible.
And something that Blake, in his current form, could actually do.
However, he had to sacrifice a large part of his own powers to do it.
But he didn't care.
It was his friend after all.
"W-What did I just see...?" Erdrich muttered.
"H-He... he revived him?" Elfriedden started crying.
The God slowly walked towards them.
"I'm sorry for taking so long..." Blake apologized, gently placing Chris over the floor. "He's... fine now... I... Ugh..."
Blake felt a sudden sense of drowsiness.
And then his transformation was undone, as he fell into the floor, unconscious.
"Blake!"
