Pov Myu:
"Can you heal him!?" ()
"I can, but that arm is already a lost cause." (Silvia)
In my arms was one of my younger brothers, his body was covered in tal stakes covered in Cursed Runes and on one of his shoulders there was an empty place with a bite mark where his right arm used to be.
"It wasn't just his body that was injured, his Soul suffered trauma, the Anomalous Dragons' bites tear off more than just flesh." (Silvia)
"I can fix the stakes, but that arm..." (Silvia)
"As long as he lives, everything else can be redied in another way." ()
"Leave him with , I'll put him through the purification ritual before treating his injuries." (Silvia)
"Thank you, I really appreciate all the help." ()
I hand my brother over to her, but what catches him are branches that co out of the ground taking the form of large wooden hands, this was the last of the injured to be brought in, I myself am injured, but my injuries are minor, only my physical body was injured.
"(8 of them are on the verge of death, 643 are severely injured, all the others including have varying degrees of non-critical injuries...)" ()
"How did this end so well..." ()
I couldn't understand, none of us died, many ca close to death, so are still close to death, but no one actually died.
This ti there were so enemies with a power level close to my mother's, the enemies were also being much more violent in their attacks, I can't understand how we were able to have a number of zero casualties.
"Don't think too much about it, you might not like the answer." (Magnus)
"..." ()
"Magnus, son of Zenos... is that right?" ()
"Yes, that's , you're Myu, Lolth's daughter and right-hand woman." (Magnus)
"That's , nice to et you, but what do your words an?" ()
"You're not the only one who notices the strangeness in the number of casualties, but trust , you don't want to know the reason for it." (Magnus)
"I don't understand your reaction, as strange as it is, shouldn't it be good news?" ()
Sothing doesn't feel right, your reaction tells that there's a specific reason for all of this, I can't leave it like this when so many of my brothers are involved, especially now that my Mother hasn't shown up yet.
"Tell what you know now." ()
"..." (Magnus)
Sigh
"I tried to warn you since others on your side seem to have noticed, but I think staying silent would be worse." (Magnus)
"The reason there were no deaths probably has to do with Niryna, she's a good girl despite who's with her." (Magnus)
"Are you saying she did this? I saw her fight and she didn't seem strong enough..." ()
"She doesn't need strong attacks to distract soone in decisive monts, she also didn't do this to help you, it was just a bonus in her mind, as good as she is, she still has her priorities well defined." (Magnus)
"She manipulated the battlefield creating two lines of defense around us, rember how everyone was positioned, the Dragons of our universe were the last line of defense and you, who were greater in number, were the first line of defense." (Magnus)
"She wanted to reduce the deaths to the minimum possible to avoid holes in the defense line, but I can't deny the fact that she really enjoyed saving you even though it wasn't the priority." (Magnus)
"Are you saying that a young woman who may not be stronger than , manipulated the entire battlefield positioning by herself...?" ()
"Not alone, Samara certainly realized what she was doing, so she acted along with it, but the rest must be as I said." (Magnus)
"..." ()
I couldn't believe what I heard, the undertaking of doing what Magnus said is absurd, the battlefield took over an entire Star System, there were planets destroyed just by missed attacks, just paying attention to such a wide area is already absurd.
"I'm just saying this to avoid trouble later, the result is what matters and in that everyone survived, just don't let anyone cause trouble when everyone benefited." (Magnus)
"You say that when my brothers were the ones at greatest risk..." ()
"Look closely, Samara and Hades were in the greatest danger when facing the strongest enemies, we weren't far from the battle and probably more than half of our side didn't notice what Niryna did." (Magnus)
"..." ()
Sigh
I look in one direction, the girl nad Niryna was on top of a rock eating sothing, but from behind her another female figure ca out of seemingly nowhere, she was smiling and looked straight at , I didn't even notice when I took a step back in the air still feeling a shiver down my spine.
"(What is that thing.)" ()
------------------
Pov Xagar:
"My performance was below what I intended..." ()
"It wasn't that bad, just bad luck in choosing your opponent." (Silvia)
"Still, I know I could have done better..." ()
"If I controlled my power better..." ()
"Just rest, your curses have been cleansed, but your injuries haven't all healed." (Silvia)
"Thank you." ()
I watch Silvia walk away and fall into my thoughts, since I left the Church of Light, my strength has been rising at a very fast pace, my old techniques are no longer able to keep up, my skills are too many to master in a short ti, all I managed to do was get used to this current body and even that is only a small progress.
"(I need to be stronger... I need to master my power... I need to train!)" ()
------------------
Pov Akatosh:
I sat there recovering my strength for hours, my body was already healed by what Mavis did to , but my Soul also suffered several injuries as well as my power was spent.
"You can leave now." (Tarzor)
"Finally..." ()
"How is the boy?" ()
"Better, but he'll need ti to heal, he probably won't wake up until we leave this universe." (Tarzor)
"The one called Lolth, how is she?" ()
"I don't know, the Twins' powers are in concepts that go beyond those of a Universe, my senses can't understand what's going on there." (Tarzor)
"I understand, keep taking care of Zenos, I'll see how things are outside." ()
Tarzor appears twisting the space in the form of a Dragon's face, then that sa space opens in a portal arch that I passed through going outside.
The journey was smooth and from the outside I could still feel Tarzor's power being sustained by another power, but before anything else, a figure passed by as the portal closed, it was just a glance and yet I saw who passed by, Luci.
"Was this your idea?" ()
"No, but it's going to be okay." (Niryna)
"I'm sorry I didn't believe you." ()
I don't trust this girl, I know she's one of Zenos' daughters, but she's also connected to an Entity that shouldn't be trusted by anyone.
"(No matter how strong Luci is, she won't be able to fight Tarzor inside her body or against the Twins...)" ()
I continued walking without caring about Niryna who was still sitting on a rock, around I could see Dragons lying on the ground injured, the sll of blood spread through the air as the environnt vibrated with so many powerful Auras together.
Suddenly several Auras locked onto my position, one of them was already approaching , it was Lolth's daughter with a more Human appearance, if I'm not mistaken her na is Myu, a strange na for a Dragon.
"Where is my mother!?" (Myu)
"(I knew it would end like this.)" ()
"Inside, she is being taken care of by soone and she can't leave now." ()
"Is she hurt? Why do you look like..." (Myu)
"Don't be fooled by my body, my injuries are more than you can see, your mother's life is not in danger, so just wait for her return." ()
Saying that I go see the others, I don't want to get involved in whatever the twins are getting into, only a madman like Zenos would keep them around.
I move away from the planet knowing that this place is being used as a care camp for those injured, I found many Dragons with minor injuries around the affect as if guarding their companions.
I continue flying away and see the Cocoons of black flaming Runes, this was also the power of one of the Twins, they were slowly being dragged by ethereal branches.
"Freya, are they still watching?" ()
"Yes." (Freya)
"Did they see everything?" ()
"No, just what I allowed them to see, they don't dare to enter the universe thinking they haven't been noticed." (Freya)
"They'll try to ambush us on the way back." ()
"Are you sure not talking to Zenos and the others was a good decision?" (Freya)
"Zenos likes to plan a lot, he would make them realize they've been found, we need to catch them unnoticed so they'll fall straight into the trap." ()
"That was the end of this ordeal, but we're only halfway through the war." ()
