anwhile, in the sky, Qridus finally made his move, unleashing a giant golden palm.
The black lightning orb moved forward to face it head-on, but Azzy beat it to the race, charging forward and swinging down the sword at the incoming palm.
The sword of radiance gave off a divine glow for a second as it collided with the golden palm, cleaving it into two halves and letting Azzy charge forward even more and reach his opponent.
Qridus wasn't surprised the least by Azzy's strength. He actually retained calmness by the ti Azzy reached him.
As Azzy swung the sword at him, he stayed in his spot. The sword, however, passed through his body. Qridus then pushed his hand forward, striking Azzy's chest head-on, blasting him for several ters.
While Azzy controlled his body in the air and stopped flying away, Vajra acted. The black lightning orb released a torrent of lightning currents at its opponent, but none struck Qridus at all. They passed through him as if he were a ghost.
Qridus then mumbled, "Domain: I reject all Arcana spirits with grades of celestial and above."
An invisible barrier was unleashed into the surroundings, pushing away Vajra.
In an instant, the black lightning orb was found hundreds of ters away from Azzy's body while Lux was glowing brightly, trying to resist the law. As a primordial sword, it could resist the laws of the domain.
"You are strong but still have a long way to think you can defeat , Azrael," said Qridus, putting one of his hands behind his back as if he were showing off his superiority.
The black lightning orb was about to attack it from outside the domain, but suddenly, it disappeared alongside Lux as Azzy's eyes changed. The pupils were gone, and the eyes were glowing in white.
A distorted voice then escaped his mouth, stating, "Sorry, but your opponent is ."
Qridus furrowed his brows, "I cannot sense any soul energy inside Azrael for so reason. What is this power?"
Tellus then raised his hand, conjuring a block of adamantine and throwing it at Qridus.
Qridus hurriedly evaded it, but the adamantine block that missed him changed its direction imdiately and struck his back at a terrifying speed.
"Ka…"
Qridus crashed to the ground. As he got up, he spat a mouthful of blood, Qridus conjured a light energy sword, "You are not Azrael. Are you his Arcana spirit?" He questioned.

Tellus looked down at the opponent, "No, let's say we are the different sides of the sa coin. On one side, it is Azrael, and on the other side, it is , Tellus."
Tellus then shifted his attention to Devorah, "Your father's will is to free you from this burden he put on you and also give you a life where you can do whatever you wish. Following his request, I'm here to destroy the entire forbidden region and give him peace.
You will be free from the duty of a guard, Azrael will get a decently powerful army of undead to face the angels, and this little arrogant one here will be able to finally open his eyes about the future of his clan. Everyone wins."
"Wha… What are you saying?"
anwhile, inside Azrael's mind space,
Azzy's soul was forcefully dragged into the mind space, where the clan founder was comically seen on a sofa with a bucket of popcorn in his hand. Then, there was a big screen floating not far away from them, displaying what was going on outside, although it was a first-person view.
"Uhh…" Azzy was stumped for a mont, seeing weird things in the mind space when it was supposed to be empty white space. "What's going on?"
The clan founder threw a popcorn kernel into his mouth, "It's nothing. I gave a little mission to Tellus while you are away, you know, in exchange for the help I provided you to create him."
"Mission?" Azzy shifted his focus to the theatrical screen. He saw a huge crater on the ground. A large area around the central region of the Forest of Death was ruined, and there were adamantine blocks everywhere around.
The clan founder then snapped his finger, and another sofa seat appeared beside him, "Sit and watch."
Taking a seat beside him, Azzy inquired on the matter.
The clan founder answered, "Tellus will destroy the forbidden region, all of those three islands and monsters trapped in it. When you go back, don't absorb their spirit cores; instead, rge them with the undead and create an army of 9-star and 10-star undead monsters.
Once you do that, you can force leaders of other hidden clans to create the world barrier and protect the planet from the influence of any god. Even Thanatos couldn't claim the souls without having your permission.
Later on, I'll also teach you a thod of releasing the core from the monster and giving it to your friends or family, increasing their power, too. Then, you can even raise a bunch of demigods if you want.
Of course, if you don't want any of that, you can just keep the undead army in your mindscape and use them when you face the threat from Thanatos' army. After all, you killed an apostle of death and also captured the sword of radiance. You might survive, but you can't protect your clansn with your current strength."
"Umm… that's okay but…" Azzy, after listening to his ancestor's plans in patience, asked, "Is there a need to interrupt my battle with Lord Qridus?"
"Oh," The clan founder casually replied, "that's because I don't want you to go against your family even if your ego is hurt in the process. Both of you are my direct descendants, regardless of our connection to reincarnation. Family is important. It is their existence that makes you think of the word ho. People don't say that blood is thicker than water for nothing, you know.
Moreover, I knew that you would win against Qridus anyway. But, in that process, you will not only hurt his confidence but also disappoint your parents, who will think that it is their fault that you grew up this way. You are soone who gave up your dignity to help out your friend. Here, it is your blood.
As a youngster, it is your duty to treat your elders with respect if you think they are your family. Give a proper apology to him later on, understood?"
Azzy wanted to say sothing in defense, but in the end, he inwardly sighed and nodded, "I understand."
"So, popcorn?"
The clan founder stretched his arm toward Azzy, inviting him to take the popcorn.
Azzy took a couple of kernels and tossed one into his mouth. The popcorn dissolved imdiately in the form of energy, giving him a sense of peace for so reason.
"Hmm?" Azzy's eyes widened, and he looked at another kernel in surprise. "This…"
"Created from pure natural energy. Gaia's pure energy always gives you peace because it is filled with the essence of the mother goddess, who loves every mortal who resides in every materialistic world with all her heart. When you feel peace, you will be calr and a calm person often makes the right decisions compared to the one who was influenced by seven deadly sins.
I also added a bit of Jupiter's essence to give it crispiness." The clan founder smiled.
Azzy let out a pleasant smile, "yeah, it tastes good."
