Chapter 359 Attacking With Everything
"That's strange," the head nurse thought, touching the motes of light as they sunk in his skin upon contact.
"Yes it is strange cuz they are a part of meee!!" A childish voice entered her ear as she looked to her right and found a small figure happily dancing around in the air.
"Who are you?" Asked the head nurse as she recognized the creature to be a pixie right away. After all, there were obvious traits in the figure that showed that she was a pixie, childish appearance, small wings and a light glow all around them made it pretty obvious that the woman dancing in the air was a pixie but what perplexed the head nurse was what a pixie was doing here in the middle of a battle and why she was helping the humans.
"Helloooo!!! Im on your sideeeee," the pixie happily replied as she swam in the air. Seemingly excited to be here.
"But why?" The head nurse asked,
"Use your brainnn!!!" The pixie answered and it shut the head nurse as she just kept on looking at the pixie but she forgot that she was in the middle of a battlefield and the very next moment, an axe came flying at her.
Swerving to her left at very last moment, the axe pierce through her elbow as a shallow gash appeared on her elbow, "Arghhh," Grunting, the head nurse held through the pain as she turned look at the assailant.
In front of her stood a creature with two horns and the face of a bull, its height towered over the head nurse at the height of five meters. Looking at its weapon, she noticed it to be a crude axe made up of stone. However, in the midst of that axe were veins in which mana seemed to run unimpeded.
"A pseudo-artifact and that too in the hands of a celestial," she muttered as she brought out her own weapon.
A whitish light appeared in front of her as it momentarily took the assailant's focus off her. Using that time, the head nurse flew higher in the sky and materialized her weapon. A staff materialized in her hands as she held it tightly and looked down at the beast, trying to find out what it was.
"Oh! A minotaur, that's pretty rare to find in these areas," she thought as a smirk overcame her face, "Well, i love killing rare stuff," Saying those words, the staff shone a white light as the head nurse swooped down and swung her staff at the Minotaur.
Meanwhile,
In another part of the battlefield, a heated battle took place as Alden fought against a Celestial and by the looks of it, the battle was going in a stalemate.
"I have to say Alden, your synergy with your pack really is a cheat. You just evolved into a Celestial not long ago and look at you already matching my prowess. I'm sure your pack would be giving you all their strength so you could match upto a hundred year old celestial," the opponent Alden battled smirked. After all, it was the second oldest Celestial in the forest and although he was in a stalemate with Alden, it did a huge blow on him finding out that a hatchling could match upto his strength.
All this talk was just a way that the beast used to calm its hurt ego down but listening to the man, Alden just smirked as his eyes suddenly glowed orange, "Ohh dear, I am sure you would love fighting my pack then because all this time I hadn't even thought to involve them but seeing how eager you are to fight them, lets take it up a notch,"
The very next second, Alden's arms bulged as his strength increased exponentially. He grinned at the Celestial in front of him as pushed as the Celestial took a few steps back. This made the Celestial frown as he felt disbelief take hold over him.
"What? Scare of me now?" Alden teased the Celestial, "Now let me show you all my strength, you egoistic bastard," Saying those words Alden kicked the ground and appeared right in front of the Celestial. His fist smashed into the Celestial's mouth as the sounds of bones cracking echoed in Alden's ears like the most melodious of music ever played.
"Wonderful," Alden muttered in pure ecstasy as he kept on attacking, using the Celestial as punching bag and practicing his newfound strength. After all, it wasn't that he had just stayed on the same level during the past few days.
Under tremendous pressure of an attack, Alden had meditated and pushed hard and above his limits, reaching the intermediate tier as Celestial. This increased his powers multiple folds itself while the two of his pack commander had taken his advice and also leveled up. They were now Pseudo-Celestials and with his connection with them, Alden currently had the physical prowess of two Celestials and the Celestial in front of him was his first experimental subject.
All this while,
Ray and his teammates readied themselves for the attack. Kashish had said that she would need a bit of time to attack the tree because she would have to find an opening and charge all the mana and strength she had into one attack.
Therefore, Ray made another plan. He knew that the tree would be dazed for a very small moment and the opening they would have would be very small while the margin of error was very big. Hence, Ray asked everyone to take their places before hand and move at his signal right away.
And just like that, everyone stood in their positions, ready to do their tasks as they waited for Kashish to strike. The wait was excruciating as no one knew what would happen next. What if the tree accidentally found them? Or a mistake happened? Or the tree never got dazed?
But those were all variables and if one thought about all the variables that could take place, it would exhaust lifetimes but the variables would never end.
At their wits end, all of them saw as the huge reddish tree suddenly shuddered. It's canopy shook while a tremor went through its stem.
"Guys its time. Gooo!!!" Ray sent the telepathic message as he himself dashed out of cover.
Ray's mother made her move as well as a huge door opened up behind her. Out from her door came a raging silhouette of a demonoid as it phased through her body and disappeared. Following that a message flashed in front of his mother,
[Spirit Merge Successful:- Merged with Demon Ifrit ],
Following the message, the facial features of Ray's mother changed as her eyes turned into slits while her hair changed into pure elemental fire. Two fangs protruded out from her mouth as a bloodthirsty smile hung up her lips.
Looking at the tree in front of her, she licked her lips as a fire covered her hands. It then spread, from her hands to arms and then to her shoulders and spread on until it covered her whole body.
Another message flashed,
[Spirit Sublimation:- Avatar Of Fire],
Seeing the text flashing in front of her eyes, she smiled again and appeared right in front the tree, her body covered in raging flames as a huge trident of fire appeared in her hands. Her size looked like an ant in front of an elephant when she held the trident but for her, the size of the trident was nothing more than an unnecessary nuisance. It weighed nothing and she had full control over it.
She held the trident tightly and threw it forward as the trident struck the stem of the huge tree.
Following which, a screech echoed in the core of the forest. The tree shuddered as its branches moved, as if coming to life; they whipped around in the air, aiming for Ray's mother but she dodged all of them with ease.
While this happened, Tim and Elina made their way behind the tree. Emma had already informed them where Aella was being held and how to get to her and so Ray had given this job to the brother sister duo.
As for Ray and Sirius, they were teaming up once again to go against an enemy far stronger than them and hoped to come out victorious, if not that; at least alive.
"Come on man, another round of fun awaits us," Ray grinned as his mana core pumped as changes took place all over his body.
