’Today, I’ll stop holding back,’ Aren yelled in his mind while moving through the air. He pulled the hamr back and attacked the snake again. It slamd into the head of the snake. He moved too fast to be stopped. The snake attempted to attack again, only for the giant to hurl its hamr at the snake. It instantly made the hamr larger as it slamd into the head of the snake and shattered the skull, leaving a very massive hole in it.
The guardian snake knew that at this point, there was no real return for it. There was no way that it would be able to take down Aren anymore. The only way was to retreat and recuperate as fast as possible, but even then, Aren wasn’t willing to allow this.
"Casper, take it down," he said in a calm voice. Casper wasted not a single mont. He rushed at the snake and, without hesitation, unleashed a barrage of attacks that completely shattered what remained of the skull.
The snake collapsed to the ground and stopped moving. It was dead. The guardian snake was dead, and Aren was the one that killed it.
Aren looked at the massive body, yet his eyes held no drop of joy. He seed hollow and without a drop of emotion.
His notifications were turned off, so Aren didn’t know what amount of soul fragnts he gained at all.
He walked over to the snake and then used Consu. Instantly, the snake, as large as it was, vanished into the shadow.
[You have gained a new Shadow]
[You have gained a soul weapon]
[Ancient Serpent Spear]
Aren looked at the notifications, but he didn’t rush to start checking any. He couldn’t, because right at that mont, the weight of using all of his powerful shadows nonstop finally kicked in.
Cough, blergh.
Aren collapsed to his knees and coughed up a mouthful of blood right there. His hands were shaking, and he could not sustain his summons anymore. He was forced to unsummon them to save himself.
His breathing was the loudest thing around, sounding like an engine that was about to combust. His heart slamd hard against his ribcage, and it hurt like hell.
"Tch, I’m not done yet. I have to keep going so I can help the others," Aren said to himself. He looked up with his bloodshot eyes, seeing red all around, yet his gaze locked onto the top of the mountain.
He pushed himself off the ground, legs shaking like wet noodles.
"Show the mories of the guardian."
Aren muttered. He wanted to see what was in the mind of the snake and how it related to the angel. He wanted to learn the truth.
Instantly, the skill kicked in, and Aren was pulled into the mind of the snake. It felt like a vortex was dragging him deep into the depths of an abyss, and when he had his eyes opened once more, he realized that he was inside the snake, which was inside a small glass cube.
The guardian snake was not as great and large as it was, but rather a small and very tiny snake. This alone made questions form in the mind of Aren.
The ground of the glass cube was filled with rocks and other things ant to make a regular snake feel comfortable.
Aren looked around through the glass and saw that he was inside what seed to be the room of a young girl.
There was a small bed with soft pink sheets and pillows. The ceiling was white and had little pink stars covered in glitter. The wardrobe, curtains, and everything else was a soft pink color.
’This looks like the room of a human child. What the hell is happening here?’
Before Aren could finish gathering his thoughts, the door of the room swung open, and in ca a girl, dressed in a beautiful pink shirt and black pants. She had her beautiful blonde hair tied into a bun, and her big angel wings were folded.
’That’s a young angel,’ Aren thought the very mont that he saw the girl, but there was sothing else. He could tell from a single glance that this angel was the sa girl that had been chained up, the sa fallen angel.
Not only had Aren realized that angels grew from birth and had normal lives, he also discovered that the fallen angel was young and normal.
"Oh, Slithers, you won’t believe what happened today," she said. Her tone was heavy and downcast. She threw herself on the bed and looked at the ceiling.
"Why do we have to train to serve the gods and then go out and punish other races for the gods?
Mummy says the gods need sothing from them, the teacher says that too, and they say we are the hands of the gods.
I really want everyone to learn to live in love like daddy used to say before he vanished."
Her words were clear and were nothing like her age. She shut her eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep, and as she did, the mory started changing as well to a different one.
The new scene showed the sa angel, now at the pri age of sixteen, riding on the head of her now giant snake extrely fast, with a sword in her hands. She attacked the flying golems that ca at her extrely fast. She was extrely quick, moving through the field until she finally destroyed all of them.
When she stopped, she flew off the snake and landed on the ground. She looked into the distance, and so angels stood there, all matured, but she focused on one that stood with her hands crossed. She looked like an older version of the girl. It was her mother.
Her mother didn’t have a reaction. She simply turned away and walked off like she wasn’t impressed.
"Lucy Dawn, first place with a ti of forty-five seconds," one of the angels standing there announced.
