1761 I...Caught...You...at...Last.
'Because it is considered as abusing her laws and she will suffer from a small punishnt.' Lilith clarified.
'Since she is in the Echoing Tower, she had no problems with receiving so of those punishnts if necessity demanded it.' Felix nodded.
'In other words, it was better to bring them to their own prepared territory than to get found in another book for the sake of a small punishnt.' Lady Sphinx concluded.
'I see...'
Candace started to realize that Felix wasn't the only one capable of abusing his laws to turn things to his advantage.
This made her more worried and scared of what was about to co next.
'Ready yourselves.'
When Felix understood that sooner or later, Eris' letters would go inside his world, he gave a stern gaze at Apollo and Commander Bia.
'It's the mont of the truth.'
Apollo cracked his knuckles while pulling out his Lyre, understanding that so of them might not make out of here alive.
Although they had a plan in place to handle their enemies, it was subpar at best when it ca to dealing with upper celestial unigins.
But, there wasn't much they could do about it...The library offered them with the biggest chance of survival compared to the previous or upcoming floors, and they had to risk it.
'Found you.'
Suddenly, Eris' eyes glead for a second after she spotted a familiar environnt inside one of the books.
Without an ounce of hesitation, she recalled the rest of the letters and sent them inside that world.
The letters gathered in one place and started stacking among each other until a bright curvy stunning female figure erged. With a sudden flash of light, the figure turned into Eris herself!
"The chase is over, co out, and let's end things peacefully." Eris announced indifferently as she pushed her glasses upward her nose.
Although her senses hadn't picked up on anyone yet, she was certain that Felix and the rest were hiding here.
That's because the Librarian could not create multiple worlds using the mories of one person.
In other words, if Felix wasn't hiding here and using this environnt as a distraction, it would do nothing but delay the inevitable and ruin his advantage.
"No response? I gues..."
Before Eris could make another move, a sudden flash of light appeared out of nowhere, targeting her back!
It was a spear of light, cutting through the peaceful atmosphere with the speed of light!
Eris had sensed the surge of energy at the last possible mont and turned sharply to face the incoming threat.
Without an ounce of fear, Eris t the spear with a brilliant flash of light!
However, instead of the expected impact, the spear disintegrated upon contact with Eris. The particles of light from which it was ford scattered into harmless, sparkling motes that faded into the air around her...
"Impressive, Apollo. But you should know better than to believe a re spear of light can unsettle ." Eris comntated calmly.
"Then, how about millions of them?"
Apollo's playful voice resounded in the sky and before it could reach Eris' ears, she found herself surrounded by millions of blinding spears, coming from every single direction!!
Unfazed, Eris used the sa technique to shut down the barrage of spears! She remained untouched as the spears went through her skin akin to being devoured by a black hole!
The analogy wasn't farfetched when considering that the technique used was called Order Cancelation!
A powerful and unique technique capable of summoning the exact opposite force of the targeted attack to counter it perfectly!
In this case, Eris had used it on her skin, which created a pitch-black barrier with a 100% light-absorbing effect!
Thus, the rain of spears ended up doing nothing but cast a brilliant glow across the Sky Pearl Island...An utterly useless attempt.
At least, this was what appeared to the onlookers. But in reality?
Whoosh Whoosh!!
'Hmmm?'
Eris raised her eyebrow slightly after Felix and Apollo suddenly erged from within one of those flashes of light right before her eyes!
One ca from the front and the other from the back, sandwiching her in the middle.
One was holding a spear made out of light while the other was carrying a black lightning bolt, crackling with fierce electric power.
Both of their expressions were cold, serious, and mostly, murderous.
For they understood that they were pushed into a corner and the only way forward was to go all out!
"Eriiis!!"
Apollo thrust his spear of light forward, attempting to pierce through Eris' chest. Simultaneously, Felix, with a matching overwhelming speed, lunged forward, his lightning bolt aid directly at Eris' back!
They believed that Eris might leave a small opening in which she would be forced to either defend her front from the spear of light or her back from Felix's lightning bolt.
Alas, Eris was no pushover.
As the weapons neared, she invoked an advanced version of the Order Cancelation Technique!
This caused both attacks to halt the instant they touched her skin! The only difference this ti was Eris' front side turned pitch-black while her back transford into a gleaming, tallic surface!
The powerful electrical voltage was wholly negated by the peculiar tallic material akin to a fire being quenched by water!
'Damn it, she is untouchable!' Felix cursed with an ugly expression as he pulled away from Eris.
He was already inford that when Eris decided to take a battle seriously, it was nearly impossible to touch her...All because of this technique.
A technique capable of transforming her own body into the best material or energy capable of countering their attacks.
The only way around it was to utilize peculiar attacks that could not be countered, which was nearly impossible for either Felix or Apollo without abusing their laws.
If Felix still had his seven sin laws, bypassing this technique would be child's play...Too bad.
As she watched them create so distance from her, Eris remained unmoved, her eyes shifting forward to et Apollo's and Felix's.
"Is that the extent of your creativity, gentlen?" Eris remarked calmly, "No matter how powerfully wielded, simple laws cannot breach the defenses of one who commands the very principles of chaos and order."
Before Felix or Apollo could react, Eris clapped her hands once, and a part of the letters that made her existence broke apart and rged to create a circular chaotic grey portal.
The mont Felix and Apollo saw the portal, their expressions turned for the worse and they swiftly attempted to break it apart.
Alas, the portal was protected with the sa technique and their attempts failed again.
'Damn it, they can't even deal with Eris properly, how can they handle Uranus and Deter too?'
Candace nervously watched as Uranus stepped through the portal, widening it with two hairy arms.
His visage was as cold and rciless as ever...But this ti, his eyes were mixed with a hint of sinister pleasure and thrill.
"I...caught...you...at...last."
He uttered one by word, his eyes never leaving Felix and Apollo...They were affixed on them akin to a predator locking on his prey after a week of starvation.
