Ascension of the Nephilim

Chapter 331 Becoming Weak Again



Back in the Realm of Middle...

The group below was rejoicing for their great victory. They shouted and shouted as they felt like this was a dream. Those who lived in Middle were still in shock at what they had achieved.

Never in their dreams did they think that their small and weafk numbers would ever have a chance of defeating Heralcus and his Commanders.

"I\'m not dreaming, am I?" Midgard asked himself.

Kyros held the upper torso of Heralcus and took his shield. There was also another object of interest.

"Interesting dark armor. I should be able to repair it or sacrifice it to the Temple to get more."

Finally, Kyros reached for the ring that Heralcus was wearing.

"A High-Quality Dimensional Stone. It\'s even using the eyes of the beast that Crowns could only kill!" Calaminus was amazed.

"First things first, is there food for our celebration?" Kyros peered into the ring and used his knowledge in Creation to alter the ring\'s ownership. He was acting fast, for he knew his time was running out.

"Good. Just in time." Kyros smiled as he suddenly lost his strength. He fell down as he couldn\'t even move the slightest muscles.

Mechiel saw this and sped forward. But as she did, Scarlet also met her.

"Scarlet! Let go of my husband!"

"Your husband? You haven\'t even made your bows. Now let go of my Lord!"

SMACK! SMACK!

Two smacks arrived as Martha appeared and slapped the two of them.

"Quick bickering and get Kyros to the Temple!" Martha ordered.

"Yes, Lady Martha!" Scarlet answered.

"I\'m sorry! Mechiel apologized as the two of them sped down.

"Damn it..." Martha sighed as she suddenly lost strength and fell down.

"Puff?" Martha asked.

"I\'m as drained as you, Master. I can\'t move." Puff sighed as his huge form fell down.

CRASH!

Puff landed on the ground, and many below rushed to evade the horse-sized dragon leave a crater.

But Martha landed in the arms of Aron.

"My lady." Aron smiled.

"Sir Aron..." Martha shyly answered.

"Sorry, I could only do this much. I hope my fight against Eredus back then was enough to impress you." Aron smiled.

"I\'ve had my eyes on you since that tournament when you stood up for Lord Branze." Martha smiled.

"Let\'s head back to the Temple. You need to get healed." Aron smiled.

"Ma-Master... What about me?" Puff asked.

Kyros was brought back to the Temple as he immediately lost the power that he had gained.

It wasn\'t just him and Martha.

Diana, Branze, Mezal, the Emberdons had over drafted their powers in that fight and now suffering from the backlash of their respective abilities.

Branze and Diana kept on using their Force Wall to attack and defend the many attacks of the Champions. But at the start, those Champions made devastating attacks that all reached the realms of what Commanders could do.

And so, the two had to use the power of the modified Last Stand just like Mezal and Kyros did. Unfortunately, they burned up a huge amount of their power and were now unable to move.

Martha had used her dragon cells to fight and overused her cells. Her fight against Qara forced her to make her cells evolve, similar to how the Thane Dragons fought and unknowingly wasted their cells. Martha made her cells evolve to the point that it would nearly kill her. Only then did she secure victory over Qara.

The Temple itself could not heal the weakness that Martha, the Emberdons, and the core Steele family had.

In Martha\'s case, her dragonic cells needed to be refueled, and she had to devour a massive amount of energy to strengthen her cells. For the rest, it was an issue of the soul.

"You\'re just like me, then." Aron laughed as he approached the group. He didn\'t join in the fight but stood guard over the Temple Storage Space, where all the infants and toddlers of the surviving settlements of Middle hid. He was already weakened after his first fight.

"Why do I feel that it was part of Fate\'s plan that we would be weak?" Aron asked as he carried Martha.

Diana saw it and felt jealous and gave Branze a meaningful glance.

But Branze was already lost in thought as more theories of his battles began to explode in his hand.

Diana frowned and was about to call out Branze, but as she saw Branze\'s eyes, she smiled and stopped.

"It was clearly Fate," Mezal spoke.

"I feel that we are fated to be weak."

"That is correct. That battle has brought us all to the power levels of Commanders. In fact, it would even exceed Commanders if we gauge it by the standards of the Lowlands." Kyros explained.

"I could have plotted another route, but this path is the right one. We\'ve become too strong. How can Fate trouble us?" Kyros laughed.

"Send all with critical wounds inside!" Hunter continued to give his orders.

Many of those who were wounded from the battle were brought inside. Some of them even had their limbs cut off.

"Tell everyone. We can\'t afford a full heal. The energy the Temple used up nearly depleted the energy of the Core. We will recover a lot by sacrificing our enemies; I plan to use it all up to increase our levels. As for wounds, we will be recovering them the normal way. Aside from broken limbs and such, the Temple won\'t heal most of our wounds but only heal us to the point that we would cross any threatening threshold." Kyros explained.,

The orders were brought out, and those that needed healing were brought to the Temple.

The Temple gave a weak flash and barely healed everyone inside, just as Kyros determined it to be.

The team began to slowly move up.

Branze and Diana still felt the weight of losing over half their soul.

"So I\'m this weak? I\'m barely as strong as I was before we came here!" Diana couldn\'t help but laugh.

The rest also made their slow rise.

Mezal had to be held by Faye and Stellya as he still had many injuries in that fight.

As for Kyros, Mechiel has pulled him up, but Scarlet had forcibly made her way to hold Kyros on the other.

Mechiel frowned.

"Let\'s not fight, for now, Mechiel. This is a time to celebrate. Allow me this few moments to hold him. He is quite... handsome now." Scarlet smiled as she glanced at the lean muscles of Kyros.

"Fine. I\'ll allow you this. And you did save a lot of lives." Mechiel acceded.

"My son is now all grown up!" Branze laughed.

"And look at that. Two girls next to him. How envious." Aron laughed.

"Kyros. I don\'t care how strong you are or who you are. In this life, I am your mother. You shall only have one wife." Diana ordered.

"Of course, mother. But as you can see, it\'s not that easy."

"Mother-in-law! I\'ll be sure to take care of your son!" Scarlet chuckled.

"Scarlet! I am Lord Kyros\'s wife! You be a good maid and attend to him by standing by his feet!" Mechiel cursed and shouted.

"Scarlet. Please move to the side. I command you." Kyros gave the orders.

"No!" Scarlet answered and kept on clinging to Kyros.

Kyros sighed.

​ "I thought that she\'s a member of the Coven. Why can she do that?" Stellya frowned. She had been eyeing the form of Kyros and was annoyed at the two women standing next to him.

"The rules of the Coven aren\'t that strict. I\'ve seen it. The truth is, we are free to disobey him as long as we don\'t put him in harm\'s way, but those whom he loves in harm, and that we treat him with the level of respect of a Master. But it\'s very flexible. In Scarlet\'s heart, she treats Lord Kyros as such so she can disobey such an order." Reptilia explained as she joined the leaders who stood by.

"Gather everyone and have them move in front of the Temple." Kyros decided to ignore Scarlet.

Hunter nodded and went out and called everyone.

"I can\'t believe that I\'m weak again..." Aron sighed.

"Oh, don\'t worry about it. We all are going to get weak. It\'s part of Fate\'s design. And not just us. I mean, everyone in this group." Kyros chuckled.

"What do you mean?" Mezal asked.

"Basically, everyone here will only be slightly stronger than we were before this whole battle started." Kyros laughed.
