This place was entirely made of tal, a large room with small floating beds shaped like eggs, in addition to these beds there were machines that I don't know and a large entrance.
I was facing an angry Yntra as if responding to her anger her beautiful image was destroyed as her muscles grew to the point of tearing her skin, her body beca twice the size with her head almost hitting the ceiling, and tentacles grew in Her back and head bones changed into an imitation of a Dragon's head giving Yntra a monstrous appearance.
Her fury was more than palpable, I could feel this place's rejection of on a much greater level than before to the point where I almost couldn't hold on to this place.
"(This place was as deep as I could get before she started to fight back, but strangely she was very willing to stop from getting here.)" (I)
"I see, this is the core of her will, the biggest pillar in her mind." (I)
Just as that cabin in the blood forest is my central pillar in my mind, this nursery is the central pillar in her mind.
After everything I saw until I got here and what I could understand, I begin to see why this place was the central pillar in her mind.
"This may just be a place for you, but will you want to destroy everything? You know I can fight you on equal terms even here, it doesn't matter if neither of you wins." (I)
"I don't mind!" (Yntra)
She seed to disappear as she left the space above , she attacked as a distraction from above to let her pass using the Holy Power concentrated below in the form of a monster's head trying to bite , which doesn't work when I jump to the side, entering the space to co out in front of her with a kick already inches from her face.
She dodged my attack or that's what she thought as my body exploded releasing 5 beams of Essence circulating around her image of her imprisoning her as a wave of Holy Power explodes making the entire nursery shake with cracks spreading.
Soon there was a black crystal sphere with 4 different colored energy rings rotating around it, a similar image of the Essence Core within my Soul with the only difference acting as a sphere of flesh with 1 eye, 1 mouth, and so tentacles floating inside thrashing around trying to get out.
I simply co out of my Divine Weapon as if I were a Ghost possessing it, when my body reford I could feel that the corruption of this space was very slow, but what surprised was that all the destruction done was being reversed, the cracks closed, the devices and floating beds returned to their positions, all of this was as if ti was moving backwards until everything was in perfect order as it was when I arrived here.
"Interesting." (I)
"You bastard looks like you got what you wanted." (Yntra)
"Yes, I beat you in your own mind, so if I could..." (I)
"No, I won't make it easy for you." (Yntra)
The sphere of flesh stopped fighting inside its Essence prison, and the tentacles returned inside its body leaving only a ball of flesh with 1 eye and 1 mouth.
Her image seed calm, but I can feel her Aura breaking in the face of despair, losing to her ans much more than just her defeat or her death, I don't think she cares about those two things, what is destroying her now is the sa thing I used to ss with her emotions until now, the possibility that everything she did was for nothing.
Even without knowing everything she went through, I can imagine so of the more obvious things and assu a few others.
"(Corruption is very slow, it could take hours and every mont counts as there is still an enemy in the shadows.)" (I)
"(I have to make her finish breaking, her will is now stronger than before, but the reason is her hatred towards , without this hatred her will could have already broken.)" (I)
"It was worth all your research, all your experints on innocent people, the countless sacrifices you made, everything you abandoned and lost...your own daughter." (I)
"SHUT UP!!!" (Yntra)
SHUT UP!!!
It seems that even with your Soul imprisoned, your consciousness is still free, the words of the ball of flesh and the mind were at the sa ti showing that there is still a connection.
"What do you know!?" (Yntra)
"We were facing a crisis! I am one of the greatest minds in the Universe, my research on regeneration allowed us to fight for years longer, and my research on body modification improved our soldiers, granting us the only victory we achieved against those damn things!!" (Yntra)
"From start to finish, I was right! That naive girl Astrid was only able to run away because of !!!" (Yntra)
"She was weak, always thinking of ways to escape and run with her group of cowards without ever daring to go further wasting her mind on scrap tal seeking useless improvents instead of seeking the next step of evolution like I did!!!" (Yntra)
"THEN WHY AM I WRONG!!!!" (Yntra)
"If it weren't for you stealing Haku from , ssing up every one of my major research, and forcing to act hastily without proven research, I could have reached eternity and brought everyone with !!!" (Yntra)
She is in a spiral of guilt, but even so, her mind rejects mine violently, I cannot corrupt her mind any faster, my attempt to break her only increased her defenses against .
"We both know you would have failed anyway, even if I hadn't co, you're already inside soone else's trap, so don't make things worse." (I)
"Do you know Haku is fighting outside right now?" (I)
"..." (Yntra)
"How did you find out about her?" (Yntra)
"It wasn't difficult, in Haku's mories it was clear that you approached her first, one of the most intelligent and respected people approached a young researcher, you supported her much more than would make sense and included her in your important projects, everything That was strange in itself." (I)
"I ca to consider that you were in love with her, but you never showed things like affection, sexual desire, or even romantic interest to Haku, you were always very objective even with the clear favoritism." (I)
"But I only understood after Haku ca over to my side and you started creating clones of her." (I)
"If you only wanted her mind and knowledge, then there was no reason to maintain her appearance and over ti the clones always proved to be the leaders, you cared too much about her to just be her assistant." (I)
"Sexual desire and romantic interest were out, so the only thing missing was the connection between friends and connection between family mbers, the first being impossible as they had shown favoritism since they t, there was no ti to form a friendship of that depth." (I)
"You really like hearing the sound of your own voice." (Yntra)
"Haku is your daughter, one you abandoned, and yet here we are, a mory that is a central pillar of your mind, a nursery." (I)
"I didn't want to abandon her, but I didn't have ti for a child, I spent months sleeping in the laboratory to the point where I didn't rember where my apartnt was." (Yntra)
"I had more important things to attend to and luckily she inherited my intelligence, she really was my best assistant and a source of pride for , yet you took her!" (Yntra)
"Yes, I broke what you did in her mind and I give her all the freedom she wants, now you won't have the sa end." (I)
I could see the thoughts running through her single eye, then I felt her rejection disappear, then my corruption and my mind took over in seconds, the ball of flesh inside the prison of Essences becoming clearer as it disappeared.
"I'm lost, but my legacy will still live on in her, I hope she walks a better path than mine... take care of her for ..." (Yntra)
From start to finish, this was the only ti I showed her affection, in the end even a bad mother is still a mother.
"I didn't need to say it, she's one of my companions now." (I)
I could feel the Essences burning the Soul as control of its planet-sized body began to weigh on my mind.
"This will take... a while..." (I)
The Essences began to disperse as the image of a nursery disappeared like an illusion revealing a hut next to a cave among several blood red trees, my central pillar replacing Yntra's.
Her mind broken and her Soul destroyed, her cris were many and grave beyond what she could imagine, the Demonic Goddess of Death and the Goddess of Life would not let this go.
"I'm going to make good... take advantage of everything... you left..." (I)
