Adrian's battle with the Greater Faceless One ended in a good way as he did not need back-up. Adrian was a bit confident since there is only one enemy. If he is not able to incapacitate the ten young werewolves then he would have asked for help from Solstice's team.
The faces of the ten young werewolves are in disbelief because they were following a monster. Even though each of them shared sentints with Aspen, the fact that the Aspen they knew was a lie took a big toll on them. There are also the souls of their love ones that they are now seeing.
The souls of their family are currently before them and is currently speaking with them with Aspen's soul in the mix. The human that killed the fake Aspen suddenly changed his appearance to what they know as Demons of legend.
"Lost Souls of the Deceased, you are no longer welco in the material plane. You must cross over to the other side or else you risk becoming evil spirits. As Shephard of Lost Souls, it is my duty to guide you." Adrian stated as his voice powerfully echoed unlike his usual calm voice. The voice he has now carried authority.
The souls that the Greater Faceless One devoured all ca towards Adrian's soothing yet authoritative voice. Adrian chanted a few words and a skull suddenly manifested itself from thin air. The skull then lit up in a golden fire.
The skull blazing in golden fire opened its jaw and the golden flas outlines a door. The deceased souls were enamored by the place beyond the door and not the door itself. The young werewolves who have family mbers among the dead souls shouted for them not to enter.
"You may say your farewells. The world owes you at least that much." Adrian stated but he told this without being controlled by the AI. He already regained control of his body upon saying the first sentence.
Adrian used his remaining mana in order for the spirits of the deceased to materialize. They hugged their families tightly as they could for it will be the last ti that they will be able to do so. Tears rolled down the faces of the young werewolves and if their deceased family mbers could cry then they would do so as well.
After an hour of them caressing and feeling the love with each other, Adrian once again reminded the souls of the deceased that they must cross over now. The young werewolves tried to stop them, but Adrian already stopped supplying mana to them which made them incorporeal once more.
Bidding their farewells, the souls of the deceased finally entered the gate to limbo where they will be judged. When the last soul entered, the skull collected its golden flas and disappeared like it was never there. The young werewolves are solemn, yet they now look much different than before. The defiant attitude that they showcased earlier was no more.
"Will they go to a better place?" The youngest of the werewolves asked. She looked like she was only twelve or thirteen.
"They will go to a place much more peaceful than our land but that does not an we should go after them imdiately. What would they say to you if you were to follow after them when they gave up their lives for you?" Adrian stated as he knew that telling them a simple yes would not suffice.
"As for you ten, I will send you to the Duke of Arkadia's mansion where you will be in good hands." Adrian stated and so of them froze.
"Eirene said that the Duke of Arkadia eats children and will puts us in leashes to sell as slaves." One of the young werewolves stated.
"Why should you listen to the words of another monster that may have been the source of your grievances? Like the one masquerading as Aspen, Eirene is also one of them. Monsters that feed on the soul of the living and offer their bodies to their malignant god." Adrian asked the young werewolves.
"You have no proof! Aspen or that monster might have took him when he was vulnerable when the vampires attacked." One of the young werewolves stated.
"You have yet to truly believe , yet I only speak the truth. You people never really t the real Aspen. The real Aspen was already dead, and that monster feasted on his soul in order to look like him. If you saw Aspen's soul earlier then you would have noticed that it was weak and thin." Adrian stated as he realized how the faceless ones transforms into other people.
The faceless ones are basically a husk with only a will given to them. The faceless one would then wait for days maybe years for its first victim to arrive. The first victims are the foolish magical practitioners that think that they could summon a god.
The foolish magical practitioners would then be able to summon a breach into the dark god of the faceless ones. Since the dark god could not breach the dinsional barrier, he sent his inferior copies as a substitute in order to break the dinsional barrier.
The first sacrifices would be the magic practitioners as the dark god of the faceless ones would consu the bodies and souls of its summoner. The dark god of the faceless ones would then use the identities of the sacrificed in order to gather more. This was how the faceless ones operate which one of the souls that Adrian freed told him.
"It seems I managed to kill one of the original faceless ones but that would also an that they might know my location." Adrian thought as he knew that the faceless ones were a hive mind, but he does not know how far their telepathic capabilities could reach.
"Anyways, all of you will be taken to Arkadia. This is no discussion. You people are basically prisoners of war." Adrian stated as he used Dinsional teleportation to open a fracture in space that leads to Arkadia.
