In the beginning, Celestial beings were monsters that road around blindness. Over years and ages, they evolved into celestial beings by undergoing a certain path and becoming stronger than other monsters.
In essence, they all also trod the sa path as any other being to reach the peak of their existence. Since ancient tis of Empyrean, there were beasts that reached the realm of Celestial beings.
So beasts were born as the Celestial being since their birth whom the elven race worships. This did not an they worshipped every being that reached the realm of higher existence. They worshipped only the ancient beasts.
And the beast that possesses the potential to evolve still dwells in the Labyrinth and all-around Empyrean.
"What happened to you?"
Nix questioned the boy who possessed long silver hair and bright blue pupils. His smooth white skin was defiled bruises. His body was extrely lean and his face was super feminine that people would mistake him for a woman.
"She..."
"For fuck sake!"
Nix cursed and made him rise up.
"You are safe and there is no problem now. So tell who did this to you?"
Slowly a woman entered the tunnel. She was in a full white-clad covered by a torn robe carrying a staff and gave off a strange feeling. She seed to be injured as well. This probably ant they were attacked by so beast and later the won choose to do sothing with the boy.
"Ferdinand, why did you run away?"
She said after abruptly rushing in and hugging the boy tightly as he shivered in fear.
Empyrean was indeed a world of equality so, this was nothing strange. It seems the woman was the one that dominated the boy since they seed at the loss of hope.
Nix looked up and down at the woman without showing surprise or emotion on his face.
"Who are you?"
She asked, peering at him up and down.
" "
He was just glancing at her information while the woman waited for him to talk.

[SINGULARITY:
Companion of light
(?????) ]
'What in the world are those particularities? A priestess being sadistic is that possible? Perhaps she was suppressing her nature. until the end and since she felt hopeless she went on to die after doing the deed.'
He contemplated inwardly but, he was certainly able to understand she was fated to be the boy's partner since her Singularity seed to be connected with him. But, it was very weird from Nix's point of view.
The woman seed overly obsessive over the young boy and her sadistic nature was certainly a dangerous one too.
"Priestess Jerina, I hope you understand that Saint Ferdinand is scared of you."
Nix said indifferently.
"You! how did you know my na?" She asked in a daze while tightening her embrace around the boy.
"Aren't you a follower of Heredia?" He asked again. If she was the priestess of wisdom. Then she was soone from the Church of Heredia.
"How???"
As she asked again he slightly grinned and blatantly lied.
"Well, I kind of know."
"Really? But, you seed like an Outlaw though?"
"What does being an Outlaw have to do with this?"
Nix said in a low tone.
{Haha, what in the...}
Astaroth began laughing.
"Oh is that so? I assu you are aiming to beco a paladin of our church?"
She asked, covering her bosom, noticing that Nix was peering at her semi-naked body. In fact he didn't even pay heed to her body in the slightest.
{Haha, This woman is absurd}
Astaroth comnted with a laugh since she ca to a weird assumption on her own.
"Nah, I am not aiming to beco a paladin nor have an Idea about becoming a follower of that goddess Heredia. I want to hear how you got here and what's your purpose?"
"Extracting the holy light from the beast of light was our mission."
As she said he nodded his head.
Beast of light was a monster that dwelled inside a Labyrinth that possessed vast possibilities to beco a Celestial being.
"I see. And I hope you'll loosen up Mr.Ferdinand."
She loosened her embrace and bowed before Ferdinand and grabbed his hands.
"I am sorry... I cannot justify my actions. But, forgive for what I have sinned. I hope you will not share what happened between us. I am... I loved you..."
She practically begged him. It seems she had shifted back to reality since Nix was there and she was hopeful of escaping the labyrinth.
"Co on now? This is annoying. Aren't you a sadistic woman who is hiding it just to maintain your position as a Priestess?"
Nix questioned in an annoyed tone as the two of them continuously cried.
"Who are you?"
Jerina questioned pointing her white stave towards him.
"I believe you are ready to fight? "
Nix asked coldly and lashed his chain looking at her eye, releasing his mana around the vicinity to make her feel intimidated.
"I am sorry..."
She said dropping her stave.
For a fact, Nix knew these two were extrely goody two shoes and were not strong either. Jarina was slightly twisted because of her sadistic nature but she certainly was a trustable person.
So she probably felt like,' I'll just satisfy myself before my death.' This was not justifiable in the slightest though.
"I am sorry Mr..."
Ferdinand stopped to make Nix reveal his na and Nix understood it.
"I didn't introduce myself. So, Yeah. I am Nix, an Outlaw. Now may I know what you both are going to do? I can understand you went through so trauma but..."
"Mr.Nix, I beg you to take us with you."
The priestess said pleadingly.
Now the bait was taken. He was not obliged to solve the problems between them. He wanted to get healed quickly but, they seed to be useful considering the combination of healing with Regeneration he would possibly take down three floors within three days.
"As long as you don't drag down. And in exchange for protecting you, I'll need your healing from ti to ti. Moreover, I won't be leaving until I finish my training which will be after two days."
He explained his position and waited for Jerina to speak. And it seems like Ferdinand was still in trauma.
"It would be better to leave. We were a group of six when we entered and everyone else was hunted by the Intors a few hours ago."
"So?"
"I suggest you leave..."
"I am not leaving. If you both want, just leave."
"But..."
"But?"
Nix questioned and began to walk towards the deeper level where the two stairs were located. One went towards the underground and the other ascended towards the top.
"We understand."
Jerina said hesitantly and picked Ferdinand on her back ready to start exploring. He refused to follow nor had the will to live. Since he was feeble and had strength lower than Jerina. She forced him and carried him on her back. He just quietly accepted his defeat and decided to go with her whims.
Nix did not care to turn back and continued the pursuit to rise to the upper level.
"Rawwrr!"
Followed by a thunderous roar the three headed beast entered the trio's vision.
Cerberus was certainly not an easy opponent like Intors and scalates. Cerberuses were opponents that were extrely strong to fend off. He unraveled his sword and dagger rousing his mana.
"You both stay behind until I finish this."
He said turning towards her, and abruptly pressed his leg on the floor compressing his muscles and jumped straight onto the first floor using his mana and stabbed Cerberus' thick skin.
"Rawrrr!"
As the beast growled he ignited the sword with the fire attribute and wholly injected its gut with fire and tore open its flesh.
Both Jarina witnessed the fight in a daze and slowly gained hope that they may be able to leave the labyrinth alive. Precisely at that very mont, Nix got inflicted by a fatal attack that sent him flying towards the lower floor once again.
"Fuck..."
He cursed and once again walked towards the bleeding beast and wrapped his chain around the neck of the Cerberus, while slowly beginning to inject his mana into the chain and shapeshifted it into a spiked one.
"Ahhhh!"
He yelled to the top of his lungs sitting atop the beast that was screaming with him in unison as he pulled the burning chain. The nerves in his arms and muscles tightened as he continuously tried to separate the beats' head gritting his teeth in desperation.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a demon as he rcilessly pulled one of its heads. Without wasting a minute he shoved his chain that shapeshifted into a sword through the severed hole and bombarded its body with fire until the beast fell down.
The reason that he killed the beast at ease was that he exposed himself to extre conditions by using Berserk havoc without the fear of death.
"Hah! Hah!..."
He dropped the head and panted heavily and approached the duo.
" "
They didn't utter a word and looked at the man sitting in front of them with a cold expression. It was their first ti to witness a man who fought more brutal than ever. He seed more like a barbarian than a well-trained warrior from their eyes.
"Heal up."
He asked coldly looking at them while wiping the blood that flooded out from his torso.
