The blast of Divine energy was unforgiving and uncompromising.
Suzate felt it slither through Aigas, causing great reverberations, and knew at once what was about to happen. She paled.
She hadn't thought this was how Boron would respond to her betrayal. She hadn't seen how his actions would unfold.
She couldn't capture the actions of a stronger being than her even if they were in Aigas. She had hoped that Elita coming in through the gaps in the Rules of the world created by Skullius' Noboboyama earlier with her extraordinary sword would lead to Boron's imdiate and thorough incapacitating, which would buy her a bit more ti, but...
The drapes of ti hanging in the sky were suffused with Boron's energy and they unfurled, swinging down with morbid grace.
While they hung from the present Aigas, it was clear to see the distinction between the two pasts of this world and its future. The texture of the forr was different from that of the latter.
However...
The drapes of Aigas' pasts started to turn rigid and they made way for themselves within the stability of the future - the present Aigas. A film of genuine Divine energy coated them and it appeared to sow them into permanence, ensuring that their status as temporary visitors in the present was revoked.
To the common eye, they still appeared like giant drapes hanging from sowhere above (now turned stiff), but to Replicus and Elita, the new reality was revealed in full.
'Damn it!' Replicus thought, a dark look on his face. His still weakened body seed to lose even more strength as it slumped. 'This is really bad!'
He looked up into the sky, searching for Suzate's presence. He quickly figured that Boron's scream just now suggested that in his rise, he had already encountered the Sky Deitess. And if everything about Boron's identity as it was postulated by the Purity was true, then Suzate and Boron would not be allies.
Boron did not care for Aigas, but Replicus knew how much work Suzate put into ensuring Aigas stood in one piece. If Boron stood against that...
Right then, Replicus recalled a chilling sentence the possessed Skullius had said before their battle.
'...sadly, nothing you do can stop the progression of these plans. Even besting will not change the course I have made.'
Of course, back then, Skullius couldn't have possible ant that his toying with ti in their fight would lead to this, but regardless, it was because of him that Boron was able to create this monstrous abnormality.
He was fixing the past tis to the present, and as Replicus recalled, with an adequate affinity to ti, it was possible to go from tiline to tiline with ease!
If this problem wasn't solved swiftly...
