Chapter 1087: Stepping Up To Combat Part 6

"No you won't!!!" (I)

I couldn't stand by watching this, I knew that a fight was going on somewhere that I wasn't able to see and so I was able to sense this Evil God's intention in extracting both the power and the corrupted Souls from these creatures that possibly form his army.

This Evil God was losing, honestly, it was much more difficult and time consuming than I thought possible considering he's caught in a trap, there are also enemies like Lorraine who seems to be almost a Living Fairy Goddess, him lasting so long against her and several other enemies close to that level only proves the power of this bastard.

Because he's close to losing he must want to use this dark energy and Corrupted Souls to replenish his own power, break the trap that holds him, or something else that honestly doesn't matter, what I need to know is just that I shouldn't allow this to continue.

I didn't have time to speak, so I used my lines to pierce Hela's wet arms and used my connection to Hinata to bring her to me, all while pulling apart the power within my body and touching one of the Blessings I never use, but which are always in my body.

I start draining only Hela's death energy which luckily doesn't resist and prevents her Familiar from interfering.

I absorb Hela's death energy into my body, making this power mine thanks to the Blessing of the Demon Goddess Kalistos, then use this Blessing to further strengthen that power while forcing the Death characteristic of my Aura to merge with that power.

For some reason having my body submerged by the power of death made my entire body freeze and my vitality was being affected, but still, it wasn't a deadly situation for me and I continued with what I was doing.

This death energy coursing through my body at great speed before I place my hand on Hinata's back connecting my power to hers, then I send this empowered death energy to her while I use my connection to her to transmit information about a technique that controls her body to help me.

I didn't have time to teach her and there was no other way she could help me in this situation.

"< Death Barrier >" (I)

I didn't have time to come up with a more suitable technique, but a simple technique can always be adapted with ease to endless situations as a Mana barrier being the basis for countless barrier techniques, one of the simplest ways to do this is to use a power different like using elemental power, Holy, Curse or in this specific case I'm using, the power of Death.

Once I activated this technique using two types of barrier migrants, a barrier spell and a barrier spirit rune technique, I was able to merge these two techniques with ease as I had already done something similar before.

I used Hinata as a conduit for this power because her control over Death's power is greater than mine, her toothpick body opens what I thought were countless cracks all over her surface, but I soon realized it wasn't a crack when teeth erupted in all of them those openings rebelling to be one bizarre mouth or maybe several bizarre mouths, honestly it didn't matter right now.

A sphere of pure darkness forms in front of Hinata in less than 1 second and shoots towards the sphere in the middle of the Tree of Changing, then the darkness covers with a new layer around that area where the fight should be taking place in a Separate Space or Territory.

This barrier was strange, it seemed to be in liquid form, it didn't look like something that can be called a barrier, even I thought it had failed but the dark energy and the Corrupted Souls stopped its way, in fact, the Corrupted Souls kept their distance, some even trying to go in the opposite direction as if they were trying to escape, but even so they seemed to be being sucked towards that place in the World Tree.

I continued to concentrate as best I could to maintain the barrier that would have broken a long time ago if it weren't for the Blessing inside my body and Hinata's body connecting with a presence within the barrier, that's why the presence of this Evil God was trying to destroy the barrier and was stopped before even making the attempt, I felt his presence being suppressed more strongly.

With the Corrupted Souls seeming afraid to go near the death barrier, the dark energies these Corrupted Souls are surrounded by won't separate from their body, it looks like the plan worked somehow.

When I looked up again it was due to the noise of chains coming from above, the noises of chains came before what sounded like a waterfall of red and black chains falling non-stop.

These currents moved in a straight line, each one heading towards one of these Corrupted Souls, I was able to better see the Corrupted Souls furthest from the barrier and who were closest before the current reached those Souls who tried to force it further more to get away, I saw several lines be coated with silver, gold, red and purple energy taking the shape of a leech's head full of teeth at the end of the lines, these lines tied themselves around hundreds of corrupted Souls pulling them in our direction.

I look back and see the cocoon that had already just absorbed, whatever the lady Caitlyn threw at it, now all the threads were stretched towards the Corrupted Souls.

When the currents reached these Souls a dispute began, but this dispute was short-lived when the pull of the currents proved stronger than the pull of the lines.

When I saw the cocoon being dragged along little by little I was worried, but Mrs. Caitlyn just stared at the cocoon with a strange smile, so she looked at me and pointed at the cocoon.

"Put your hand on him and transfer your Holy Power along with Zenos' Authority to him, be quick or he will be dragged to Hell as he won't let go of prey." (Caitlyn)

I didn't have much time, I also didn't know anything about the cocoon, so I didn't know how important it was to Mister Zenos, so all I could do was protect it while I waited for Mister Zenos.

I run to the cocoon and put my two hands on it while trying to hold it with my strength to prevent it from being taken along with the corrupted Souls, while I held it, some Holy Power and Authority that comes from lord Zenos began to flow into the cocoon that absorbed it voraciously.

When that happened I felt something move inside the cocoon, then something came out, it looked like a "tentacle?" with a point that looked like three blades of black crystal forming a triangle, this "tentacle?" moved quickly as Zenos's authority surged through the crystal blades he used to break the chains one after another as the crystal blades were damaged or shattered by the impact.

In the end, all the Corrupted Souls bound by the red threads were dragged into the cocoon along with what was left of the chains still binding the Corrupted Souls, everything was absorbed by the cocoon while the "tentacle?" went back inside the cocoon with the hole he made being mended.

"You will not interfere, Taboo Huntress." (Caitlyn)

"Why interfere with the recovery of these fugitives?"

"You also know, serving food is a form of punishment in itself, so don't bother and don't make me act personally." (Caitlyn)

"I'll let it go this time on orders from the Goddess Kalistos, but control this one..."

"Ssshhhhhh!!!" (Caitlyn)

"Don't spoil the surprise." (Caitlyn)

"..." (I)

Not knowing what they were talking about what I thought was a Phantom that appeared out of nowhere next to the pod climbed up without looking at us again and stayed close to the chains watching while the other corrupted Souls were taken inside the ring in the cloud that closed soon after.
