The bright sunlight reflecting off the shadow of the two figures sharply pierced Ery's eyes,
One of the two figures who were currently descending from the sky was soone Ery familiar with, extrely even. It was his one and only Master Xion of the Darkness Institute.
Master Xion landed on the ground and approached Ery who was still dumbstruck staring at the forr. On the other hand, the unidentified magus in golden robes headed towards Hades, apparently.
"Master Xion…" Ery said with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
Even though his thoughts were still trying to comprehend the situation, Ery was surely excited to see his master after such a very long ti. However, it was truly unfortunate that the location and circumstance of their eting wasn't exactly the best and made things awkward.
Before Ery had the chance to ask for an explanation, Xion beat him to it and spoke first. But strangely, the latter spoke in a straightforward and formal manner.
"Ery, trust and let handle this matter."
Xion also turned and looked at Klea for a mont, his gaze telling what he just said also applied to her. Both she and Ery nodded in agreent, showing they understood. Then, their attention was caught by a loud voice.
"Brother! You… can't let this…" Hades said, his expression extrely unwilling.
In response, the one in golden robes yelled, "You shut up!!"
Ery was surprised to see a single sentence had managed the haughty Hades shut his mouth completely. The now poor-looking magus lost all of the dominating presence he previously gave off when he was glared at by the golden-robed magus, who seed to be his brother.
The magus even went as far as taking out an artifact that looked like a rope, using it to restrain the still unwilling Hades. Unfortunately, the mont the rope-looking artifact was thrown, it had quickly and firmly wrapped itself to Hades, allowing only necessary space to let the latter breath.
The two, the golden-robed magus and the tied Hades, then hovered toward where Ery and Xion were. Ery's body instinctively went into its fighting stance, while his eyes cautiously watched them approaching.
"Magus Xion, I hope you would be willing to give us, the Nephilim Clan, so face to let us punish this stupid brother of mine internally."
Xion actually didn't respond imdiately and instead looked toward Ery and said, "Magus Hades has been personally and intentionally breaking the rules to interfere with matters in this world. I am here to witness and also advise you to agree and let the Nephilim as the caretaker to give appropriate punishnt. Do you agree with this arrangent, Ery?"
Ery wasn't sure if he had the right to decide, but at the mont, he also had no clear understanding on whatever was going on. There was also the fact his master wished to trust him, hence Ery only nodded his head.
"I agree."
Hades, on the other hand, was completely silent and seed to have nothing to say. The golden-robed magus, however, had his eyes locked in Ery, as he looked at him in interest and said, "Ery Ambrose, I am happy to see that there are more talented youngsters hailing from this world. I sincerely hope for your success in the future."
The golden-robed magus stretched his hand out and added, "I am called Zeus. I will definitely make sure my brother receives what he deserves."
This magus nad Zeus had a very polite manner of speech and a very authoritative tone that would make people unconsciously believe him. However, Ery didn't trust this man one bit. This Zeus was the one who tricked the Abbot, who instigated the fight between the brothers. Even so, Ery decided to stay quiet.
Zeus smiled and was about to turn and leave when Xion suddenly spoke and stopped him in his tracks.
"I am sorry, Magus Zeus. But it seems there's a misunderstanding." Master Xion said, "What I actually an is that you will deliver the punishnt right here and right now."
Xion's words quickly made Hades' face distorted as anger once again flared in him. Ery also noticed his brother Zeus showed a glimpse of anger, but the other party quickly regained his emotions and said with a smile, "Of course, Magus Xion."
He closed his eyes and said in an authoritative tone, "I, Zeus, hereby give Hades the appropriate punishnt for breaking the rules and interfering with this world without permission. The punishnt shall be of that physical death!"
Upon hearing this, Hades' face further contorted with rage, but with his body completely restrained from top to bottom, he was unable to do anything. He could only watch and grit his teeths helplessly when the just punishnt for his actions was conferred upon him.
Zeus seed to cast a spell as his palm gave off a bright glow. Ery then saw him touch Hades' forehead. Hades' face imdiately contorted as he tried to withstand the pain. His attempt to suppress the pain and anger he was experiencing made Hades clench his fingers so tightly that blood started to ooze out of his palms. Eventually, cracks started to appear on his body as if he was a porcelain.
Bright, golden lights could be seen coming out of the cracks. A few seconds later, Hades' entire body crumbled and disintegrated into nothingness. When all the bright lights were gone, Ery saw a dark crystal - the sa as the one on ave's chest, but he could see it flashing about before Zeus took it and kept it inside his robe.
Afterwards, Zeus turned to Xion and said in a rather cold tone, "I believe such punishnt was fair, Magus Xion."
Xion obviously noticed the coldness in the other party's words, but he didn't seem to mind it as he calmly replied, "Yes. I now can see why Nephilim Clan has such mighty nas that resound throughout the galaxies."
Zeus didn't even bother to reply, as he imdiately hovered to the air and flew upwards, heading toward the clouds.
Seeing this, Ery, Klea, as well as Arthur subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at each other, their expressions all agreed this ant the battle had finally ended.
But for Ery, there was still one concerning matter. Therefore, he quickly approached his master and asked for his assistance.
The group quickly headed toward where the Fey sisters were. When they arrived, Ery imdiately asked Magus Xion to check on the unconscious red-haired girl.
Looking at the pitiful appearance of the girl, Magus Xion kept his silence.. His gaze and feelings beca complicated when he saw the wound on her chest.
