Chapter 1850: Cap 1848: The new Urd part 6
Pov Hades:
The Temple shook in front of everyone, the space didn't break, it was corroded and replaced by something else, a wave of raw power ran through the surroundings like ever-increasing waves coming from the Temple that was changing.
It was as if the Temple was a shell of something else that was emerging even larger, while the pieces of the old temple fell to the ground, a column of stellar energy rose to the sky that collapsed opening a crack out of the universe that took up the entire sky.
The new temple that appeared in front of everyone was 4 times larger, its shape was of marble columns with crystal veins pulsating light with spiral staircases in the middle that rose to the sky fixing increasingly ethereal, a triangular wall in the background that contains a painting of a staircase that leads to a tree that resembles a scale, a beautiful painting.
The temple columns fragmented as they grew taller, their pieces floating in place in increasingly larger spaces, but what really caught everyone's attention was what appeared as an illusion to everyone in the sky where the spatial rift was. It was an ethereal image of a structure with hundreds of Towers together, organized from the smallest to the largest inside, where the largest of them all in the middle had rings of Runes around it. This structure floated among stars and seemed small when seen through the spatial rift. Even so, just by looking at it, one could feel the massive size of this thing, larger than many planets.
Even though there were so many Avatars and even Callidora's Envoy here, no one said anything, no one made any movement. This wasn't fear or anything like that, it was pure disbelief.
Some were incredulous with surprise, some were incredulous that such a thing was happening, and others were incredulous with anger.
All this because the type of power we felt from this temple as well as from that building in the crack in the sky was undeniable, it was the power of the Concept, a power that only belongs to the Entities.
Such power took over the surroundings and I could feel that this power was making the chaos inside me pulsate, considering who the master was with inside the Temple, it was just a matter of adding one plus one to understand what was happening.
"(He turned her into an Entity... like the Twins...)" (me)
I still can't believe what I was seeing, the master never ceases to amaze me, but this state of calm wouldn't last forever, everyone was calm because they wanted to be sure of what was happening.
An Entity is always someone who draws attention, even other Entities must pay attention when another Entity is involved, none of the Avatars will act without receiving permission from their masters first and even Callidora's Envoy will not act without confirming the situation, those who serve Callidora are not being protected by her but are used as disposable pieces as Callidora pleases, this was something that Master Zenos made a point of teaching everyone.
I try not to move too much as I confirm Freya and just as I thought, her eyes are focused on the crack in the sky her eyes shine like portals full of stars and vines full of dark scales circle around her.
She was clearly focused elsewhere, which could only mean that she was focused on what was happening inside Tarzor.
"(I feel stronger and stronger, this is also...)" (me)
"< Divine Eclipse Magic: Guardian's Claws >" (me)
Suddenly I feel a killing intent and without hesitation I raise my hand, I feel my natural energies circulate faster than before, my Divine power on the other hand was heavier, more concentrated and intense than before, the amount didn't seem to have changed, but the difference between before and after was absurd.
"If I have you in my hands he won't run away!" (Avatar of Greed)
With my power being stronger and more efficient than before, I was able to perform this great divine magic in an instant, a double-layered magic circle appears near Freya and me from where a large 10-meter Dragon claw rises, its arm covered in thick scales seemed to form a shield native to its large arm that stands in defense mode between us and the yellow Scythe that crosses the entire arm as if it were made of paper.
"(At least it bought us time...)" (me)
The slight delay of the blow due to having to cross the shield gave us time to get further away, his surprise attack missed and even so he ran towards us.
"YOU ARE MINE!!" (Avatar of Greed)
"A truly interesting idea, but don't waste your time now, Avatar of Greed." (Ayden)
Suddenly Ayden appears next to the Avatar of Greed, placing his hand on his shoulder and stopping him from continuing to attack. I didn't even see him move, and his hood disappeared into pieces while his full-body red armor was revealed, covered in marks from endless battles.
"What do you think you're doing, Avatar of War!?" (Avatar of Greed)
"Do you think you're protecting them from me!?" (Avatar of Greed)
"Don't be foolish, look around before you get lost in your emotions, young Avatar, especially pay attention to your condition." (Ayden)
"(He's looking at the Envoy of Callidora...)" (me)
Looking at the Envoy of Callidora, I realized that she wasn't looking at the achievement that was being rebuilt in front of us. In fact, he had something shining in his hands. It was a symbol similar to a training target in the shape of an eye.
In front of the Avatar of Greed was a deep valley right where he would pass, in the hands of the Envoy of Callidora was a thin sword like a rapier.
"Ladies and gentlemen present here, why detain us for so long instead of joining in the fun!!" (Envoy of Callidora)
"Ha ha haha hahahahaha!!!" (Envoy of Callidora)
"There are 5 marks like this, one on each of the Avatars, this is the mark of the infernal hunt, in other words they are my assassination targets for today!!" (Envoy of Callidora)
"The game ends when a bearer of this mark is dead, whether killed by me or by one of the others gathered here." (Envoy of Callidora)
Just as was to be expected for an Envoy of Callidora, he was smiling with every word while amusement was written in his eyes, he was announcing a murder as if it was some kind of game or competition.
"Huh?" (Sent from Callidora)
"Hahahahahahahahahahaha..." (Sent from Callidora)
While he was announcing, he also revealed a cruel killing intent that made even me tremble. He was getting ready when suddenly his eyes widened before bursting out laughing.
"I almost forgot to say because of the excitement, the marks I showed will appear in random places on the Avatars' bodies, so if you have them in a visible place or if you are hidden, it's your luck since even I don't know." (Sent from Callidora)
"Any doubts? No!?" (Sent from Callidora)
"Then let the game begin!!!" (Sent from Callidora)
With his announcement, murderous intent appeared from various directions. My eyes, as well as those of many others, scanned the Avatars. It was clear that this was one of the Avatar assassinations that Callidora promised as an event.
Looking around only 2 Avatars had the mark in visible places, the first was Greed where the mark appeared above the eyelid of his right eye and the other was the one who was clearly an Avatar of Pride, the man with an open coat and no shirt, the mark appeared in the middle of his chest as if he was revealing it to everyone.
No one else was visible and the places where it appeared didn't seem random either, the eye of the Avatar of Greed and the chest of the Avatar of Pride, it seemed to be almost planned.
"< Sword that Embodies Massacre >" (Ayden)
Without saying anything Ayden, who until now had prevented the Avatar of Greed from causing more confusion, suddenly pulled out his silver sword that was bathed in red energy from Ayden's Aura shining sinisterly towards the head of the Avatar of Greed who barely managed to defend himself from the blow.
"What are you doing!?" (Avatar of Greed)
"Nothing personal, but I'd rather have a fool like you than one of my comrades in arms." (Ayden)
"(That's right, kill each other and forget about all of us.)" (me)
I was really relieved, our position was very bad, everyone here was Master Zenos's enemy, without him around everything became potentially more dangerous.
But with this death game going on, we are the only ones left out since there are no Avatars here.
"HHAAAHHH!!!"
"What a shame, this game ended too soon... hahahahaha..." (Sent from Callidora)
At least that's what I expected before everything changed, the Envoy of Callidora was behind one of the hooded people who came with Ayden, his clothes had been cut in half along with his body revealing a middle-aged man wearing armor without a helmet, his body cut in two was engulfed in green flames as he screamed, the flames looked like a monster as they tore and corroded his body on their own revealing the eye-like target mark on his neck.
"The game is over!!" (Sent from Callidora)
"Wasn't it fun!? Hahahahahaah..." (Sent from Callidora)
