Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 408 Remembering The Celestial Code

Kyros was very honest with the team.

But those that stood by didn't cower and only gripped their swords and weapons tighter.

"Still... It took two beings that we cannot fathom to kill you. Not a bad ending... Histerion approaches with his army. I want to ask the remaining Feather-Folk to carry my wife back." Kyros turned to a Commander.

"...I am saddened that I won't die with the honors of facing this beast. But I will gladly bring your wife to safety." The Commander bowed, and his wings erupted out.

"N...o..." Mechiel cried out. But she was too weak. The fight she was having with Lanthanou was causing her to be drained of all power.

"Mechiel. Your battle is to distract Lanthanou. I'm sorry. I thought I'd be strong enough to figure this out. But the power before us is too powerful. Breveros... I'll be frank." 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

"No need to explain, Lord Miracle. If the battle begins to shift to our defeat, we will sacrifice ourselves to save you." Breveros answered.

"Good. I really don't want to retreat."

"It's not cowardice when you still have more people you could save. I understand. We are beings doomed to fire. This is both our Destiny and Fate. We are both pawns to be used in the battle between the gods and fallen." Breveros sighed.

Kyros's expression changed. The moment Breveros said that something just didn't sit right. This was not how Fate acted.

"Could it be...?" Kyros thought. He began to try and deduce what it was that he saved in that seed.

"What message did I leave there? Did the past me who made that account for this battle?"

Several men appeared on the distant horizon. The heat began to sting. It was as if they were looking directly at the sun's heat.

Four beings were flying in the air.

Kyros expected an army, but when he saw them, he sighed.

"This is bad. Histerion is really going for my neck now..." Kyros sighed.

"Their back. The former lords of the Planesworld, and my master...! Their back!" Breveros saw the three and was horrified.

Of the four, three were familiar figures.

The first one harnessed tremendous light energy and donned a sword and shield. He contained so much Force and Magic that the entire world looked as if it had recovered its sun back.

Emperor Elistre Protos Endoxos appeared once more, and while his powers were limited only to the form of a Crown, the powers had fully returned. He even wielded the Codes that were lost.

The light of Soter glowed strongly. The King of the Planesworld followed the religion of the light and served the god, Soter, the most.

He not only learned of the Code of Soter but would be blessed with the special blessing that allowed him to rule. He was the Vicar of Soter.

On the opposite side was his eternal rival. King Necros Olethros flew out quietly at the side. He was around three times the size of Lea's full Grendelor form. The tail wildly swished out, and the darkness gathered around him like a huge shield that protected him from the darkness.

A thousand screams could be heard as he moved, and the shadows that were being cast from the light of Elistre were like the shadows of several beings screaming in pain and trying to flee from the shadow.

The forced energy of this man was so strong and sharp that the ground below him began to crack from at his flight.

The final being was a man who Breveros knew well. He was an Eldrich that was assigned by Eldrich Impyernos to lead the charge into the Planesworld and acted as the leader. Had not it been for Breveros, Kyros would never have known the true leader and assumed that the Eldrich leader was this man.

The man was clothed in some form of darkness that took the form of armor. But the man himself didn't wield the darkness. It flew with him.

Compared to Necros Olethros, who wielded massive Force energy that was aided with a few magic, this person was the opposite. His magic allowed him to do marvelous things.

He had an almost Elvish appearance, but his eyes were that of darkness, and scales were growing around him like most Eldrich.

He commanded the Wind and Entropy that followed him and carried him.

"Eldrich Emperor Bolerax Hiwind... It really is my brother. It's like looking at him when he was younger..." Breveros frowned.

But Kyros's eyes were not on these terrifying warriors. But he looked at the man leading them.

Leading the group was Histerion himself. He was no longer a being formed from the, but this incarnation was emitting powers far beyond his previous forms. It contained tremendous Brimstone energy.

"Instead of a random form, it's like you stepped into this world and was reborn." Kyros sighed as he flew up to the sky.

Histerion had his usual appearance. But the heat he released was so immense that the heat brought by the light of Soter could not even compare.

"I have to be more serious if I want to fight you. But I'm sad, Kyros. Here I thought you'd be able to make me remember." Histerion sighed as he flew ahead of the three.

"Honestly... I think there is still a chance that I did do what you asked of me. But it's all a blur."

"Ah, to deceive your enemy, you must deceive yourself, especially since your enemy is someone that can alter memories. But this feels like we're at the end of this journey, Nephilim. If you do have any aces, best reveal it now."

"Of course." Kyros then ripped open the void. When he found the strange dark world, Kyros could now create a small spatial chamber. It was very small, barely a meter wide. But it in, Kyros hid the strongest powers that they had crafted as they marched ahead.

It was a small core of energy.

"A Soul core? But that doesn't look like it has any elements at all. It's as if you simply took the souls that make up the Brimstone Beasts you defeated. For what purpose is that?"

"The last time I used this, it gave me the power to defeat the Necromancer Heralcus. I needed the Okto-Khefali's cores. But since I don't have that luxury, I will have to make up their cores with pure soul energy." Kyros harnessed the powers that Mezal told him. But instead of sacrificing a portion of his soul, he drew in the souls of those inside the soul core.

"[Last Stand]!" Kyros sacrificed the entire core that contained thousands and thousands of souls. This resulted from their study and experience creating the Time Core of Calaminus. Kyros created a massive contained for all the souls, which he would be able to use in a battle like this. The power of Last Stand surged within him.

The power of the elements quivered as [Last Stand] took effect. Through numerous training, Kyros could access more of the elements. It wasn't the same when he wielded the Cores of the Okto-Khefali. But during the months that had passed, Kyros used the time acceleration of Calaminus and actually trained for nearly a year to master the elements.

And so, Kyros harnessed the energy of the Celestial Code. He had wielded it before, in Middle, and once more, the form of the Celestial Paladin returned.

Kyros's power surged from Champion and broke through the levels of Commander, and finally, it stopped when Kyros reached the level of a Cardinal.

Those nearby were amazed at Kyros.

He was already so strong as a Champion. But now, he scaled two realms!

Histerion smiled.

"Now, there's the Nephilim that defeated my weaker incarnation! Let's have fun!"

But Kyros's expression was full of shock.

"I remember! I... remember!"

Drawing out the power of the Celestial Code caused a quiver among the Codes.

He saw the memories of the Okto-Khefali! It had taken shelter in the Celestial Code and was working alongside Lanthanou.

"You...!" The Okoto-Khefali was alerted to the power of Kyros.

"There you are... No wonder you didn't go for the Corruption of Water or the Code of Plants. Instead, you sought the Celestial Code!" Kyros smiled.

"You brat! Die!"

Harnessing the power of their link with the Celestial Code, which was answering Kyros, the Okto-Khefali caused the elements around Kyros to attack him!

"Foolish! I was the wielder! How can a lizard-like you control it!" Kyros laughed and quickly called out to the elements.

The Okto-Khefali raged and fought against Kyros.

But it was no use. The power of the Celestial Code appeared as Kyros remembered the power he commanded in this past life. H was reborn without the Code, and Kyros only copied bits and pieces when he used it. But the power of Lanthanou was already working, and Kyros could not fully remember what it was to wield the Celestial Code. But now, with the very Celestial Code he communed with nearby, it cried out to its real master and was trying to escape the Okto-Khefali!

Kyros's power surged even higher.

BOOM!

"Crown! Lord Miracle... has reached Crown!" Breveros was amazed.

Kyros laughed as he gained the power, and hope was rekindled.
