After a few hours of flying, they finally reached the sun.
Of course, Evangeline seed to know how to fly too by using her wings, but she really wanted a piggyback ride, and he didn't say no.
After all, she was really back.
It was still hard to believe, and it would take so ti to get used to.
But first things first...
Neraxis glided down to the ground and landed on the branch of a tree before grabbing Evangeline's hand.
"Don't let go," Neraxis said, and Evangeline rely nodded warmly.
"You know I wouldn't. My love handles are pretty firm," Evangeline replied plainly.
Neraxis's brow rose. "I don't think you know what love handles an."
"They're my hands, no?" Evangeline replied innocently, making Neraxis let out a sigh.
"Sure, why not."
She's way too perfect to even have love handles, Evangeline's waist is—
"I can still hear you, you know," Evangeline rolled her eyes.
[Though what does he an by that...?]
"I can hear you too." Neraxis chuckled, and before she could show surprise, he focused, and in the very next mont, teleported them off the world.
Like before, the pull was huge, and the space was actively crackling all around them.
However, not even a mont later, he felt the hot temperature hitting his body again, and when he reopened his eyes, he saw the flustered Evangeline standing beside him, covering her body.
"You're naked..." Neraxis muttered.
"Well, obviously! Take out one of those dresses you bought!" Evangeline said hurriedly, and soon, Neraxis took out a simple yet beautiful purple dress and handed it over to her.
Evangeline swiftly put it on before letting out a sigh.
"So for the next ti you teleport soone... I think you should figure out how to do it while also leaving their clothes attached."
"I'll keep that in mind the next ti I teleport any of the girls across the universe," Neraxis replied with a chuckle. "Now then, there are going to be a lot of problems starting now, so could I ask you for a little favor?"
Evangeline raised her finger. "Let guess, you want to protect your family for the ti being?"
"Yep, I'm sorry if it's too much of an ask, but I really need to have a chat with the Obscura before it's too late," Neraxis said. "Delta is an anomaly, and for all I know, Amara is already going after ."
"But what if sothing goes wrong?" Evangeline asked worriedly. "You're strong, but Delta and Amara are still a bit stronger. What if they don't want a peaceful conversation?"
Neraxis sighed. "Evangeline, if my family dies, you'll be next, and then the girls, until eventually they lure out. Without you, what reason is there for to live? Revenge? I can achieve it in a minute."
Evangeline's brows twitched as she reached into the air and pulled out a blood-red tal.
"This is Arksteel, and it binds itself onto a sword of choice, making it indestructible, while also giving it properties unique to the wielder," Evangeline said before tossing it over. "Put it on the rapier."
"Are you sure?" Neraxis asked. "This seems pretty valuable."
Evangeline shook her head. "You're more valuable to , and also, my sword has already been engraved by Arksteel, you just couldn't use it since you weren't ."
"I see..." Neraxis muttered as he took out the black rapier. "You're really sure?"
She shot him an impatient glare. "Neraxis, I'm heading toward your family's house now. If you still haven't used the Arksteel, then I'm not going to wait a week and pin you down today."
Neraxis tilted his head. That doesn't sound too bad though?
[I heard that.]
"Oh right..." he facepald. "Thank you, Evangeline."
She nodded in response and imdiately vanished from sight, leaving him with the Arksteel and the rapier.
He didn't waste any ti and simply brought the Arksteel down on his rapier, and in the very next mont, the Arksteel turned into sludge before rging with the blade.
It turned the blade slightly red, but that was only for a mont, as in the next, it morphed into golden before traveling up his hand.
Since it didn't feel strange, Neraxis rely let it happen until finally, the Arksteel settled, sinking into his skin as well as the rapier.
It left behind a faint glow on the blade while also effectively turning its color golden.
However, he wasn't sure what the effect was or how to check it.
Evangeline, do you hear ? How do I see what the effect is? he asked.
[You'll have to find that out for yourself, since I don't really know. Mine is a bloodfla, as every ti I slash, I disintegrate the individual's blood, similarly to your Destruction. Also... your parents are fine, your sister is too. They got food and now I'm enjoying a nice sandwich.] Evangeline replied warmly.
Have fun, I'll be back in a mont, Neraxis replied, and with that, pulled out the phone that had been ringing ever since he ca back.
Instead of a ssage, it was a call, which he swiftly picked up, and soon...
