Chapter 1919: Cap 1915: Callidora’s strange actions
Pov Samara:
Watching the master fight was incredible. His speed of progress is always a surprise to . During my ti as a Saint, I saw many geniuses called monsters for their incredible speed of progress. After that, as a servant of Hell, I created truly outrageous beings, both assisting in Hell’s experints and fulfilling functions in other universes.
Even so, I’ve never seen anyone in less than 10 years rise from among mortals to reach the initial stages of an Entity like Master Zenos is doing. This goes far beyond talent, genius, or potential.
The level of outrageousness cannot be asured because there is no way to asure it. His fusion with Tarzor is perfect in every way, and seeing the process unfold so closely was magnificent.
What I didn’t expect was to see such severe adverse reactions. I could clearly see a deterioration in his body. Tarzor, as an ethereal being, doesn’t have a physical body, yet he is the Universe. Integrating even a small part of himself would still be far more than a physical body can support, even for a Primordial God.
The master’s body was almost completely swallowed by Tarzor, which is why he beca ethereal. But the fusion of an energy cycle with a universal flow was sothing surprising; it’s the sa formula the World Trees use behind the Tree of Creation.
When I saw the master defeat that damned thing, it was a surprise. I knew of its existence, but I’d never seen it before. I’m glad I did. Just looking at it was terrifying.
As soon as Tarzor separated from his master, I stepped out of the shadows and caught him as his body rematerialized, almost in pieces. His body was in terrible shape and wasn’t healing. His Soul was also badly injured, his Aura devastated to the point of dust, yet his eyes forced themselves open.
"Samara, why didn’t you help!?" (Sarazar)
"He didn’t need it, and it wouldn’t have worked either. He must have realized it himself, and that’s why he didn’t call ." ()
"Here, take him with the others; we must leave soon." ()
"What are you going to do?" (Sarazar)
"The Demons aren’t true enemies. Now that this Event is over and this space lies in ruins, nothing stops the true enemies from fighting us." ()
"I also sense so eyes on us. I need to take care of this and look for Miss Niryna." ()
"Be careful..." (Sarazar)
"I will be." ()
After exchanging a few words with Sarazar, I place Master Zenos in his arms as I turn to Krimus, approaching, holding a strange sword I’ve seen before.
"What na are you using now?" (Krimus)
"Samara, I’m a Saint of Zenos." ()
"I hope you didn’t co to fight." ()
"I don’t need to fight Zenos; I can learn sothing by observing him, just like when I got this sword." (Krimus)
Ding!

.
Seeing this ssage was all I wanted. With the event over, there would be no more Demonic creatures or Envoys of Callidora. The external enemies were fine, but now we have to defend ourselves against everyone else.
After seeing the ssage, Krimus seed happy, and so he should be; he, of all of us here, had the best chance of winning.
"Why did you drag this out?" ()
"I wanted to see more about the Bringer of Chaos, and I must say, I’m amazed by his techniques." (Krimus)
"You don’t expect to believe that and you won’t tell the truth, do you?" ()
"I’m not lying." (Krimus)
"Don’t try to play word gas with , lying is the most basic way to deceive soone, I know that better than anyone." ()
"So if you won’t tell the truth, why are you here?" ()
"I want to leave a ssage for him, a ssage from my lady, Curse." (Krimus)
"Tell him that next ti it will be a direct encounter." (Krimus)
"< Open >" (Krimus)
Krimus throws a scarab back over his shoulder. The insect grows and its back opens, revealing a tunnel-like portal that Krimus turns around to enter before closing. The insect soon dries up and dies, leaving an empty shell behind.
"What’s this supposed to an..." ()
There were many inconsistencies throughout this Event. I let the others deal with those who remained. I flapped my wings, arriving at the remains of a destroyed planet. There I found Niryna’s two servants. She herself was also there, completely unconscious, yet her body bore no marks.
"Why is she unconscious?" ()
"We don’t know. She suddenly passed out during the end of the Event." (Lara)
"I see..." ()
It wasn’t hard to understand why. After all, she had always been responsible for this space, not the Infernal Envoy.
The destruction of the Infernal Summoning Ritual, as well as this space, must have provoked an adverse reaction in her.
"You two, leave us alone." ()
"I won’t leave my mistress’s side." (Lara)
"You two are no match for , so save yourself the embarrassnt, get out of here!" ()
"..." (Lara)
"..." (Dante)
The two exchange a look and still stand their ground, but they also lacked the motivation to fight , knowing I wasn’t an enemy, which only ans they’re protecting Callidora and not their own master.
"Whose loyalty lies?" ()
"If Niryna were awake and truly wanted to destroy even your Souls, do you believe Callidora could protect you?" ()
"You more than anyone understand what Callidora is capable of." (Dante)
"We do this for Lady Niryna. Lady Callidora is too strong for her to resist right now. Giving in to her emotions could bring her more harm in the long run." (Lara)
"Truly ignorant, your duty is to follow orders. You can advise her, but daring to decide for her will only shatter her trust in you. When she opens her eyes, what will her decision be about you?" ()
"It doesn’t matter, what’s done is done..." (Lara)
"The risk this ti was too great to hesitate..." (Dante)
"..." ()
From their words, it seems they know at least a little about this, which also ans Callidora was attaching great importance to this Event. There are many discrepancies in this.
"Callidora, I know you are listening. I ask that you speak to before your actions today cause a rift between you, Miss Niryna, and Master Zenos." ()
I remained silent and waited. Not even she would want more enemies, especially soone with the power of Chaos that can affect even Hell.
Just as I expected, she erged from Niryna’s unconscious body, her smile was the sa as always, but her eyes had a serious glint that I had never seen before during all my ti of servitude.
"You think too much, Samara." (Callidora)
"Niryna might be upset for a few months or years, but Zenos being okay will help her calm down much faster." (Callidora)
"Once I resolve things with her master, my little daughter will forgive and, in ti, trust again. There’s nothing to fear." (Callidora)
"Master Zenos can be stubborn, especially after this. I’m connected to him and have felt his fury like never before. No amount of compensation will make him forget this incident." ()
Even without getting involved, I’m forcibly connected to Master Zenos. He never lets his emotions and thoughts leak out to . He doesn’t even trust , so for his emotions to leak out so deeply is capable of affecting my Soul. It was surprising.
"When he wakes up, it will be easy to resolve. Everything has its price. I know the price to calm Zenos." (Callidora)
"I don’t understand. This was all too risky and doesn’t fit with your way of doing things. This wasn’t one of your favorite pastis; it was too lighthearted for that." ()
"I took advantage of Master Zenos’s loss of control to peer into his mory. The Infernal Chiras’ strength was partially sealed, the Chiric Sword was also a copy of the original. Even the Titan of Taint was ill, lacking in mind and energy, and the Titan of Purgatory was so weakened that it was clearly under restraint." ()
"You can fool these two, and even Miss Niryna. Even Master Zenos can be fooled about this, but I know enough to distinguish actions that are out of the ordinary." ()
"What was so important that you broke the trust of your favorite toy and risked making my master an enemy?" ()
"I knew you would notice, as would others, but what I do or don’t do is my own business. Don’t try to understand my intentions." (Callidora)
Even though you’re just an ethereal form, your presence is always unsettling to . Better than most, I know how frightening it can truly be.
"I know that, but what if all your plans go awry?" ()
"My Master is a Bringer of Chaos. Unpredictability is intrinsic to him. Your compensation may an nothing to him, and with the importance he places on his family, there’s a chance he’ll do the unthinkable, even if he regrets it later." ()
"I’m willing to try to justify your actions. Your words and compensation may an nothing to him, but because of my connection to him, everything can be different." ()
"Your words carry aning, but the answer is the sa. It’ll be fun to see Zenos’s response. Him turning against would be interesting too." (Callidora)
Suddenly, I felt my consciousness waver, my mind driven away by a wave of fury and pressure as the Master took over my body. This lasted for several minutes before I woke from the trance.
Looking around, I saw Niryna’s two servants with their shattered arms and legs bound by ethereal chains on the floor, their eyes burning with Starfire, their faces in agony.
Niryna was still unconscious on a bed, and Callidora was floating above her, looking at with a smile. Her gaze this ti was the sa as always, without the serious glint of before.
"What did he do?" ()
"He threatened without even listening to my words. His boldness is delicious~~..." (Callidora)
