Chapter 1061: Hela's Familiar

Chapter 1061: Hela's Familiar

Even with all that going on, with the gate being torn to pieces before forming into this great ring that absorbed the black and blue flames of the ritual, I never stopped looking at Hela, that's because I was confirming that her situation stopped getting worse.

Almost all of her hair had already fallen out and the little that was left was gray like someone very old, her skin was smooth before, now it was full of old age wrinkles, and her body was thin to the point of seeing the shape of her bones in the skin, but even with all that, his life energy doesn't seem to have dropped below half.

When I finally turn my attention to the ring that had the interior filled with the black and blue flames it absorbed from the Ritual, I see a large claw with chains attached to the wrists coming out from inside the ring.

The claws that emerged are made only of bones and soon another giant claw also attached by chains appears, the two claws are attached to the edges of the large ring and finally a colossal skull head appears.

RRROOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR!!!!!

The great skull attracts all the miasma and energy of death the moment it roars upwards while releasing a killing intent not less than what was felt a few minutes ago when I thought Hela was in danger.

With half of its body of bones sticking out I was able to realize that it was a Dragon Skeleton, I also recognized it as the Undead that Hela the scenes manages to summon temporarily.

This Skeleton Dragon had chains on its arms, neck, wings, and even attached to its spine, all of these chains continuing down through the portal it was exiting.

"< Take my blood and break free from the restraints. >" (Hela)

"< Absorb my Aura and become part of my power. >" (Hela)

"< Listen to my voice and obey! >" (Hela)

Hela's voice was charged with her Aura and traces of my Authority, but what surprised me was I felt a similar sense of Hell's presence that I felt before coming from her voice.

The Dragon spreads its wings breaking the chains before new chains appear trapping its wings again, the purple light that this creature had in the eyeholes became a flame or should I say a fire for its size.

Soon he absorbed the blood, power, and Aura of Hela before the chains broke freeing him, then the very gate he left through collapses causing the flames inside the ring to go towards the Dragon, but instead of running, he turned away plays in the flames.

I saw the flames not burn him, but rather being absorbed by his eyes as a Spectral Body formed from the flames around him, I also noticed that his form was becoming less bestial and achieving more humanoid traits like standing with his two hind legs while adjusting the body posture in the air for a straighter spine.

Perhaps his biggest change was his skull which was disproportionate with his body, his skull shrinks a little while all the bones in his body turned black, in the end, his Spectral Body was blue in color, his 3 pairs of wings were in black flames and blue.

I also saw some black chains still attached to his wrists, but it didn't seem to restrict him who was easily over 50 meters tall.

"What was that just now?" (I)

"He evolved by consuming the power that created this Gate of Hell, something Hela did on purpose, guiding him to do this." (Caitlyn)

"Where is that..." (I)

But I avoided combat by just going to Hela, so I used my blood to feed her before delivering a healing potion.

Meanwhile, Caitlyn was sitting on his shoulders, I don't know what she's doing but he's still.

After taking care of Hela I have her floating lying next to me while her Familiar follows us along with my sister floating on my other side.

I let Hela rest on a bed I pull out of item storage, then I sit down on the side of the bed.

"How are you feeling?" (I)

"I'm fine, master... Father." (Hela)

"I just need to rest." (Hela)

Hela raises her hand showing that the skin on her hand is already returning to normal.

-------------

When we get back to the city floor, I lead Hela straight to the mansion while I have her familiar follow me to the Temple Communal.

"Who are you? A Dragon? An Undead?" (I)

"I'm both, I was born in Hell from the corpse of a Black Dragon that was trapped there, and the first thing I did was devour that Dragon's Soul or what was left of his Soul." (Hellyos)

"Now after being released from the chains and having my full power released as well as receiving the power my mistress prepared for me, I have been reborn as a True Death Dragon." (Hellyos)

"I don't sense many emotions in your Aura." (I)

"I shouldn't have any, I shouldn't even have a mind." (Hellyos)

"The Contract I made with my mistress allowed me to suppress my instincts and finally have a mind, which is why I am able to take this form now." (Hellyos)

"You know, I have a lot of familiars, so I know you must be loyal to Hela, but that's not enough, I don't want someone to stand by her just because of this Family Contract." (I)

"I want to know if you'll protect her willingly, I want to know if you'll be there for her when she needs it, and I want to know how much she means to you." (I)

"Everything I am now she gave it to me, she was also the one who always brought me to the world of the living to fight alongside her, she is important to me." (Hellyos)

I look at him, but I don't know if he is telling the truth or not, his face has no expression and his Aura is too strange for me to understand.

"Let's go to High Priest Henrique, I need to know more about you and know if another of the Death Taboo Hunters is going to come after you." (I)
