Vengeance of the Returner

"General Grendon, should we not enter the battlefield?" Said one of the men riding the Sarabam by Grendon's side as they looked on to the war field.

Grendon laughed at his man and began talking. 

"Haha, shouldn't I at least give some big entrance? If it isn't for my brother I wouldn't even have stepped into this land."

"But, your highness..."

"Haha, let us wait until the right time. This seems rather entertaining."

Grendon said and looked down straight at a man who dashed towards a devil. ANd for some reason, he sensed something odd from this peculiar man.

***

The orcish devil which towered over six meters tall looked down on Nix with a menacing smile. The devil seemed quite out of shape. It possessed a big belly and skin red akin to blood, two long horns curved upward and in between those were a flame that quivered along with the air. Finally, it possessed a long tail which's end was like a big barrel. Seemingly something that can be used as a hammer for heavy attacks.

So, judging from all these Nix could see that this is a devil of the upper echelon, meaning they hold high authority in the underworld. And as per what he has seen only two-horned devils have ascended to mid-world.

Rousing his mana, he dashed before the monster. Everyone was very expectant over Nix's victory. Though Nagendra's face went pale. It seemed as though he had noticed something that was about to happen. Well, obviously Nagendra is a very perceptive fighter as such he can keenly sense what's about to happen.contemporary romance

'What?'

Nix uttered in shock furrowing his brows. 

In the very instant he was thrown into the army of devils. 

"You human dare try to fight me?"

The devil spat on the floor and once again adrift his eyes on the group that had entered.

None had the time to witness the fight. They all had their hands full. The large-scale battle that contained about 300,000 beings, why would they even show importance to a petty fight that was happening in a random corner of the Warfield?

After all, Nix and his team were just a bunch of lives like any other. They weren't special by any means considering that there are a lot more hidden beings amidst the armies.

'Doom prediction vision isn't working?'

Nix thought rising up.

To be precise, it did not work against the monstrous devil. It showed several after images and probabilities something far beyond his own speed and strength. He might need at least over ten seconds to see through the future.

Doom prediction is an ability of a spectator, something that is godly.

The ability was similar to Yagavaran, the omen of doom's. There are also four more entities that possess similar capabilities. 

At the current moment Nix's might be lacking but, soon it'll be something that could literally drive him away from the shackles called Fate and destiny.

Ever since the beginning, his abilities have never been clearly explained to a comprehensive degree.

His ability is something that relies on his soul that was merged with Nova, a unique source of power.

His eyes and soul compresses information going far beyond time further by compressing it into micros of data and transfers them to his brain, with which he can see five seconds of the future even though he is still in the present.

In simple words, his soul lets him see the future whilst the present stops for five seconds until he'll be able to perceive the future to reflexively make his moves. But, in reality, it is his soul that processes at an extremely unperceivable speed.

So if he were to ever expand further he'll be able to literally go beyond time. There were also several split probabilities that continually change as he changes his path. 

One can say Nix, had already view about two years' worth of future by merely using doom prediction from time to time.

Explaining it any further will just complicate the real meaning behind his usage over the ability.

In any case, he was beyond shocked. When he is brain gave him signals he perceived different routes. And each time he perceived a different route on his mind, he got attacked by the gigantic devil before him who looked at him baring his long fangs.

He raised his body and saw the monster approaching Rebecca and the others. Yet, fortunately, a Roslie was there. She seeped through the shadow and appeared behind the back of the pig-like devil and swung her claws. 

Soon, Nagendra ran towards the devil all the while Shreya, Sonali, and Camila shot their arrows onto the devil.

Needless to say, they were all soon intervened by the winged lower devils who possessed single horns. Unlike Nix's expectation, Rosalie was pushed back by the orcish devil since it was backed by several others of his kin.

"Fuck!"

Nix cursed and swung his chain as the devils grasped him. Some even bit his neck and flesh. They tried to pull him into their group to devour his flesh.

{My My, use the dark attribute!}

Astaroth uttered.

Astaroth's strength has long faded away that he lost the ability to achieve the capability to get himself a vessel.

In the next second he peered at the scene he found Rebecca in the clutch of the orcish devil who caught by her hair. A scene, very similar to the one he saw in synchronization.

The difference is that he was covered by a group of devils, unlike last time.

[Private ability: Nova manifestation activated]

He didn't use the ability but, it had triggered on its own. Meaning this was something that was needed to change his destiny.

[Past Ability: Spatial traverse activated]

[Transcendence forcefully activated]

Now, this is an ability that is hard-earned which Nix clearly didn't obtain. `It was the seeds Dark Nix sowed which is bearing its fruits now.

Grendon and the others who looked down on the peculiar man were intrigued by the change. They didn't dare expect to be a man who could be able to wield the power of transcendence.

Transcendents are humans who are beings that can rival gods, they have the ability to destroy the souls making them unable to reincarnate. To put it in a few words, they are Individuals who can literally destroy the souls of gods akin to any other life.

And a weak man possessing such capabilities had made them surprised.

"Did I not say?"

Grendon asked with a hideous smirk.

Now, Nix was clearly in an advantageous position. He decided to let his emotions go on a killing spree. The soul which was engulfed by vengeance had unshackled its binding.

The split consciousness took over Nix's. This was Nix's first time to let the power flow instead of coexisting or trying to control. Unlike his expectations he had control over his body yet, he felt really strange. He felt like someone was backing him and holding his sword standing behind helping him to wield.

Berserk was even controllable at that point. But, this is an ability that will surely go off in mere seconds as such he appeared behind the orc devil and perfectly sliced it into two making the blood spray towards the sky and pour out like rain.

He did not stop there. His sword energy was certainly low but when he swung his word it clearly slew over ten heads of the devils in an instant.

Outsiders fear the devil but, not Nix.

[You have paid your debt]

[As a reward you can now learn Swordsmanship of Dark Nix]

A message popped up before Nix.

At the same time,

The two demigods were nowhere to be found as though they've vanished.

The celestial being slowly descended towards the opposite army and began to use its cold breath to freeze the enemies.

"Hah"

Grendon sighed looking at the blue aura.

In the next moment, he released his mana which entirely made the battlefield freeze. 

Everyone dropped their weapons and looked at the sky from where a bird-like beast approached the center of the battlefield.

'What?'

Raes henil thought, as his heart began to beat wildly that it could burst at any moment.

The same goes for several others. This man could literally destroy an entire army. 

It was as though a god has descended and intervened in the war. Unlike one could expect, he was not there to spread peace and happiness. He was there since his brother Raavan order him to do so.

As he descended along with his knights. Both sides looked at the men with surprise and shock. Whenever one entered their path as they moved to the center of the corruptist's army they killed them without hesitation.

This made the army split their formation in order for them to enter deep. Each of the twenty knights was comparable or stronger than that of a sage or saints.

The balance seems to have heavily crumbled but, this was why the materiality blocked the paths to enter. And Raavan's kingdom is said to be the strongest among any other kingdom or continent in the whole of Empyrean. 

A small grin appeared on Grendon's face as he reached the center where Raes henil was located at.

"I-I-I"

Raes Henil fell back as he stammered.

It was unsightly of a king. This attitude was something he'd have never displayed.  He trembled in fear and literally pissed urine on his pants.

Grendon didn't utter a word. He walked towards him and ripped his head off in an instant.

The men around him kneeled in front of Grendon as though they were begging for forgiveness. 

Meanwhile,

The Nightmare looked down on Grendon with a faint smirk on its face as he looked up. It was as though they knew each other. 

In the next second, several sirens blew. It may seem absurd but, that was the truth. Grendon, of the central continent, one of the generals was enough to literally infiltrate the corrupted army and kill its king.
