As the clash of the Immortals roared across the sea, Vale's Avatar arrived upon the battlefield with the swiftness of a shadow in flight.
"So that's the Eminence of the Sea's Avatar…" Vale muttered after seeing the majestic Avatar holding a trident as his weapon.
He certainly emits a terrifying aura compared to the two immortals, who seem to be reaching their limits.
'Two Immortals were actually not enough… I guess these deities can't be underestimated, huh…' Vale thought as he assessed the situation.
The Immortals, Nefrin and Gambhel, were locked in a fierce struggle against the Avatar of the Eminence of the Sea, their powers waning against the relentless assault of the Avatar.
However, their struggle will end now.
Vale's arrival turned the tide.
With a flourish of his cloak, he summoned the Astral Chains!
This is one of the Spells he obtained from a Dinsional Creature!
After activating this Spell, ethereal bindings that shimred with starlight appeared out of nowhere.. They spiraled outwards, seeking to ensnare the Avatar of the Eminence, to bind it with the very essence of the cosmos.
Clink… Clink… Clink…
The chains wrapped around the foe, constricting with the force of a black hole, yet the Avatar's strength was such that the chains strained and sparked with the effort to contain it.
The Eminence's Avatar then looked at the Shadow Immortal that had just arrived. Finally, Nefrin and Gambhel saw an expression from the Avatar… He was actually surprised and even a bit terrified upon seeing Vale's Avatar!
However, his expression imdiately changed into a serious one as he prepared to fight!
'Did he recognize Master Vale?' Nefrin thought…
'I knew it… Master Vale isn't young at all. There's no way this Ancient Being could recognize him if he was just a lucky Arcanist who obtained Divinity.' Gambhel thought, believing that Vale's real identity was also as Ancient as the Eminence of the Sea.
Then, with a roar that echoed through the dinsions, Vale's Avatar unleashed the Void Claw.
ThisSpell that was ant to be used by Dinsional Creatures was quite difficult to cast and required plenty of energy. Well, it wasn't that surprising since the enormous size of the Dinsional Creature was a huge factor for this Spell.
Anyway, the Void Claw was a manifestation of pure nothingness, the claw tore through the fabric of reality, a gaping void of darkness that sought to devour all light!
However, the Eminence's Avatar didn't stay still as he used everything he had to raise his weapon!
Boom!
The Void Claw clashed with the Avatar's Trident, a cataclysmic eting of space rending power and sea's power.
The impact sent shockwaves through the water, creating whirlpools and tidal surges that threatened to engulf the land…
The Astral Chain was also completely broken because of the Eminence's Avatar surging with the power of the sea!
The two Immortals, even had to move back for a bit because of the clash of power. Nonetheless, they remained a threat to the Eminence's Avatar as they gathered their power…
Even if they weren't moving and just showing their might, the attention of the Eminence's Avatar was split between the three of them!
It was already a huge help for Vale's Avatar!
'I guess he got the advantage on the battlefield, huh…' Vale thought as he realized why the Eminece was still filled with power even after fighting the two Immortals.
Although he wasn't sure how the Eminence's Divinity worked, he could tell that it was related to the sea below them!
'This is going to be tough… I need to make him stop getting power from the sea…' Vale thought.
The battle between them continued, and it was a spectacle of chaos and beauty…
Vale's Avatar moved with the Ethereal Steps Spell that he got from the Demon Saint!
He would cast various Spells like Abyssal Fire, and Cursed Fla, including Vampiric Fist and Aurora's Embrace, but it wasn't enough.
His Divine Lightning even seed like a nutrient for the Eminence's Avatar!
"You're still unpredictable, Paragon Atrius…" The Eminence's Avatar finally spoke, and this actually confused both Vale and the Immortals.
However, Vale's eyes narrowed as he heard this na. According to Magnus, Paragon Atrius was one of the Three Paragons of the Church that he had fought before!
"Unpredictable?" Vale repeated. He decided to go along with the misunderstanding.
"Yes… You still like using spells from different paths and not mastering a single path… You will never achieve the highest realm because of that…" The Eminence's Avatar said.
Vale wanted to ask more, but the Eminence imdiately dashed forward!
He raised his trident and it was like a beacon of the ocean's wrath!
It summoned tsunamis and called forth lightning from the depths, his attacked was filled with Divine intent.
"That's not enough to kill …"
Vale muttered as his shadowy form flickered in and out of existence. He avoided the attacks that were filled with Divinity. Although he could defend from it, it would simply consu too much energy, so it was better to dodge them!
With that, Vale also released his Spells.
As the battle raged on, the sky darkened, and the sea roiled.
The temperature of the whole western region of the continent started dropping as a vast amount of Divinity was being used… The power unleashed by these titanic beings was just too monstrous!
***
As the two titans clashed, Nefrin and Gambhel watched, their eyes sharp for any opening.
'We're going to get injured if we act now… Let's wait for a perfect chance…' Nefrin said through telepathy.
'I'm willing to make an opening even if it kills . Just kill that Eminence's Avatar.' Gambhel replied.
'Don't be stupid… The order didn't say that we have to sacrifice our lives. Don't waste your life in this winning battle.' Nefrin said, reprimanding his partner.
'Mhmm… You're right… We'll win this.' Gambhel nodded as he continued monitoring the battle.
After so ti, the two Immortals vanished from their spots!
The mont they've been waiting for ca like the break of dawn, sudden and clear.
The Eminence's Avatar, focused on Vale's relentless assault, left himself exposed for but a heartbeat.
Without any need to communicate with each other, Nefrin and Gambhel seized the fleeting chance. They surged forward from different directions!
Their Divinity exploded as they aid to kill the Avatar in this attack!
Nefrin, embodying the fierce blaze of the sun, and Gambhel, the unyielding strength of the ancient earth, combined their might!
The Eminence's Avatar turned, sensing the impending strike, but it was too late.
Nefrin's fire t Gambhel's earth in a cataclysmic fusion!
The air crackled, the sea stilled, and for a mont, all was silent!
'This is not a Spell… They're also not using any Immortal Items…' Vale's Avatar thought for a brief mont as he witnessed that the attack didn't activate any Spell Models of the two Immortals!
They used sothing else that he didn't know about!
Then, with a sound coming from the shockwave, the combined force of Nefrin and Gambhel's attack struck the Eminence's Avatar.
A blinding explosion of light and energy erupted, engulfing the Avatar in a radiant inferno that outshone the sun…
The shockwave of the impact sent waves towering high, rushing outwards in a ring. The very earth trembled, and the sky sent torrents of rain…
For a mont, Vale also saw the crater below before it was swallowed by the sea once again.
When the light faded, and the tumult subsided, there was nothing left of the Eminence's Avatar but a mory… Vale's Avatar stood amidst the aftermath, his shadowy form untouched by the devastation.
'I was planning to kill it by not destroying its body… I want to bring it back to be extracted… Ugh… Anyway, that's only an Avatar. I still have another chance. Especially if he'll continue supporting the Abyss Realm.' Vale thought as he looked at the two Immortals with a helpless smile on his face.
Nefrin and Gambhel, on the other hand, were satisfied with their work as they joined Vale's Avatar as if they were waiting for a comndation…
'Well, I didn't give clear instructions…' Vale thought as he decided to praise the two for their work.
***
In the anti, after Vale and the two Immortals defeated Eminence's Avatar, a ripple in the fabric of space marked the arrival of a young Dinsional Creature at the Headquarters of the Arcane Bureau.
The young creature that doesn't look like anything that would exist in the Human Realm shocked many of the Agents, including the Half-Immortals, who imdiately felt its arrival!
With Director Selene's lead, they imdiately created a defensive periter to contain its movent!
Nonetheless, there was still soone in the building who remained calm. It was obviously Vale's Avatar.
The creature had co with a purpose, to fetch him after his matter with the Bureau was finished.
He had already done his best to help them, and they should work on eliminating as many Demon and Demon Saints as possible!
"We're leaving, Director Selene." Vale said as walk to the young Dinsional Creature together with the Demon Generals Gorath and Zarvok.
"Wait--But… This creature…" Seraphina wanted to say sothing but Lucian held her back.
"Ti is of the essence…" Vale sternly spoke.
"We must join the others and turn the tide against our enemies."
