Chapter 1873 Willingness to Get Possessed

With each Flame Burst, Rynn unleashed waves of fire that licked at the very fabric of reality, causing the air to shimmer and warp with the intense heat.

Mana storms formed around her, crackling with energy as her Inferno Fury unleashed a tempest of fire and fury upon the Bloodfangs.

"Aaaaaah! My children! Humans, you'd pay for this."

Despite the Eldric members' best efforts, the Bloodfangs proved to be formidable opponents. Bloodfang arranged his remaining familiars in battle formation with the wave of its hand and attacked with newfound determination. CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

A hive of the familiars closed in on the Eldric members. Their claws tore through the air with lethal precision, leaving gashes in the earth and sending showers of sparks flying with each swipe. Their fangs dripped with venom, their toxic saliva sizzling as it met the flames of Rynn's inferno.

The battle raged on, each side locked in a deadly dance of death and destruction. Injuries were inevitable, with cuts and bruises marring the flesh of the Eldric Force members. But they fought on, their resolve unbroken even as their mana reserves dwindled and exhaustion threatened to claim them.

Finally, with a final, coordinated assault, Lyra, Thane, and Rynn unleashed their ultimate techniques.

The forest trembled and shook as their powers converged, unleashing a cataclysmic barrage of shadow, steel, and fire upon the Bloodfangs.

And as the dust settled and the echoes of battle faded into silence, only the victorious cries of the Eldric Force remained, echoing through the charred remains of the Shadowed Grove.

"Was... was this a setup by the Demon Earl," Rynn couldn't help voicing his concern in a grave tone as he steadied himself and landed on the ground.

"Whatever it was, I hope that it's over. Otherwise, we'd be in deep shit," Lyra spoke as she landed beside Rynn.

"Why... Why did you have to speak about this? Now you've jinxed it," Thane spoke in a complaining tone. He was relatively better off than the other two. Yet. he still had dark expressions on his face because, according to him, Lyra had raised a flag.

***

Another battlefield.

The Shadowed Grove echoed with the eerie silence that preceded chaos as Alaric and Vaelen faced off against the ominous Voidspawn.

The air crackled with anticipation, tension thick enough to cut through as the two warriors prepared for battle.

"Vaelen, I'm going all out now."

"Well... we lost our weapons in this mission. No matter how much we earn now, it's going to be a loss."

With a weary smile, Alaric spoke.

By this time, Kalen and the others had also wrapped up their respective battles. The Practitioners met at a place away from their respective battlefields.

Kalen observed that all of his team members were unable to explore the deeper parts of the Shadowed Grove due to injuries, almost depleted mana reserves, or damaged weapons and artifacts. He sighed before thinking to himself, 'I guess we can only retreat and try some other time. This forest is not as easy to explore as I thought it would be.'

Kalen was about to order his team members to retreat when his expression darkened. He looked around himself in the distance in dread as he sensed various powerful demonic presences approaching him and his teammates.

Before Kalen and his team members could do anything about it, they were surrounded. Kalen's face turned pale when he saw seven demon beasts emerge from the woods this time, each of them controlling their respective familiars.

The crowd-controlling ability was one of the most potent abilities of the demon beasts. The seven demon beasts wielded their powers to their fullest as they approached the intruders who were members of the Eldric Force.

"Humans, now that you have come here, kindly stay. Forever. Hehehe," one of the demon beasts, in a pretty and seductive young girl's form, stepped forward in the air as she spoke, looking at Kalen and the others tauntingly.

'To hell with my identity and integrity,' Kalen thought to himself. Gritting his teeth, he decisively closed his eyes and let Eren's Soul Imprint willingly take over him.

When Kalen opened his eyes, he was not Kalen anymore. Not really.

"Hmm? These many little demons have come here to welcome me?" Kalen spoke in a voice that didn't really sound like his.

"Kekeke. I'm certainly pleased. Now, which among you is the leader? Come forward before I exorcize your asses for good," Kalen, or rather Eren spoke in a casual tone before spreading his arms open and spreading his Individuality.

"What?"

"The fuck! This baleful aura!"

"Who... who are you?"

"This... this is not Kalen!"

"Demon! Kalen has been possessed!"

Kalen's team members spoke one after the other as they looked at Kalen with shocked expressions. There was also a mix of fear in their expressions.

They didn't know who had possessed Kalen, but they were sure that the demonic dominion that emanated from Kalen was certainly at a different stage than all the demonic entities surrounding them combined.
