Sounds good, go for it.
Woah...alright, this is pretty damn useful.
I suppose I’ll need a na for this new application of my Gluttony Skills. I’ve got it...
"Now, ," I chanted, a swirl of dark, shadowy energy erupting around , surrounding and shrouding my entire body in the energy of Devour.
I then spread out my wings and zipped up towards the ceiling, the Apostles following after .
As I ca into contact with the ceiling, the energy surrounding began to carve through it...this new ability, Cloak, it covers my entire body in the effects of Devour or Drain.
In other words, Devour: Cloak shrouds my body in an energy that consus all physical objects that co into contact with .
And if I apply it to Ravage, I’ll be effectively untouchable...huh, this is actually kinda OP as hell.
But I can’t use it ceaselessly.
It doesn’t consu that much Mana, just twice as much as using those Skills the regular way, which I can more than cover with my current Mana reserves.
But regardless, I can only maintain Cloak for a limited ti.
With Devour and Drain, it’s one minute each, and with Ravage, it’s half a minute.
And after that, it’s a one hour cooldown.
While that isn’t a whole lot of ti, each limit is separate.
In other words, if I fully use up the minute with Devour: Cloak, I can still imdiately switch to Drain: Cloak for upto a minute, and Ravage’s thirty seconds are counted separately too.
Anyway, as I drilled through the ceiling, I erged in an space full of prison cells, spotting a few malnutritioned people cramd inside the cells.
I hesitated for a mont, before continuing up with a grimace, bursting through to the next floor, another level of this prison.
Unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury of stopping to save anyone...and given the state they seem to be in, they’re beyond saving anyway.
I didn’t slow down or stop, continuing my rapid ascent, before finding myself in the castle, a long, wide corridor.
Alright, this must be the ground floor.
I shot up into the first floor, finding myself in a storage room, before I proceeded further, rising through the ceiling and into the next floor, a smirk spreading out across my lips as a startled yell rang out.
"Well, now, looks like luck really is on my side right now. To think I’d end up in the exact spot I need to be in," I remarked, as I t Fenelza’s gaze, a look of terror appearing on her face.
"N-No, no, no! [D-Demonic Art: Warp-...]...!" She began, before I cut her off as I shot forward and clamped my hand around her face before she could react, deactivating Devour: Cloak.
I slamd the back of her head against the wall, dazing her, before I let go and whipped my arm across, striking her chin with the back of my fist and knocking her out, her eyelids fluttering shut as she collapsed onto her knees and fell over, hitting the floor with a thud.
"," Spoke up Invidia in bemusent.
"," Added Luxuria with a wry smile, as I lifted Fenelza over my shoulder.
"I an, there was no reason not to. If we’d run into any of the other Generals, we would’ve had to fight our way through, and I can’t afford any long, drawn-out fights right now, so I figured it’d be faster if I had you guys along to imdiately overwhelm and wipe out any enemies we may have run into. Hm...think I’ll push my luck a tiny bit before I leave. Let’s take this outside," I declared as an idea occurred to , before approached the window, pushing it open and leaping out.
The others followed after , my feet thudding against the ground outside, before I stepped a bit further away from the castle, keeping a close out.
Good, looks like the coast is clear.
Oh, I almost forgot...
"," I chanted, before turning my attention to the south as I sensed Desecrator returning from that direction.
Several seconds passed, before it ca into sight, shooting through the air towards with imnse speed.
I caught it as it got within my reach, before sheathing it with a smile. Glad I rembered, it would’ve sucked if I ended up leaving it here.
"?" Inquired Superbia, as I turned my attention back to the castle.
"Might as well deal one last blow before I leave. ," I chanted, my power surging as purple energy erupted around , before raising my hand towards the castle as the energy settled, chanting, "Now, ."
A massive purple beam of destructive energy, spanning a radius of a ter and a range of a hundred ters, burst forth, blasting a hole through the castle, before I proceeded to unleash several successive blasts of Obliterate, perforating the large building all over.
As I fired Obliterate at full power for the ninth ti in a row, I used up my ti limit with Enrage, each blast using up a hundred seconds.
I let out a slow exhale as I reverted back to my normal state, before tossing Fenelza onto the ground, turning my attention to her with a sense of rising anticipation.
"!" Squealed Luxuria excitedly.
"Yeah...ti to go ho. ," I chanted, as the Apostles and I gathered around her.
Her body jerked sharply before getting up onto its feet, her expression tensing slightly, as she chanted...
"[Demonic Art: Warp Gate]."
As the blue glow of her Skill spread out around us, all of us freezing in place, her eyes suddenly opened with a start, a bewildered look on her face, before her eyes widened in alarm as she t my gaze.
"What the...?! What’s going on?!" She blurted out, right as the glow of her Warp Gate sharply intensified, blindingly bright, before I felt a change in the air as the light abruptly faded.
I swiftly drew out Desecrator and lunged towards Fenelza, who stumbled back and began to raise her hands, starting to charge up a Negative Energy blast.
"," Chanted Acedia, a sharp scream ringing out as Fenelza convulsed, a stunned look on her face.
Not too long ago, Acedia figured out that, by using Shuffle on a single target instead of two, he can jolt their soul, leaving them stunned for a few seconds.
Basically, instead of swapping their soul with another target, their soul ends up getting violently shaken inside their own body.
Before she could recover, I drove my blade into her solar plexus, piercing her Core before shattering it with a sharp twist of my blade.
Her eyes rolled back in her head as her arms slumped to her sides, before I caught and tossed her body into Treasury as she began to plumt.
I deactivated Descent, before lifting my gaze and looking around, a wide smile spreading out across my lips.
I’m back...I’m really back on Earth!
No one’s around, the streets are completely empty. Let’s see...ah, that explains it, it’s 3 AM in the morning.
Alright, ti to go ho!
Aria’s probably asleep by now, so I’ll have to surprise her in the morning. I can’t wait to see her again, and her reaction to seeing again...
