"Who is this adorable Fairy?" Anna asked, looking at Icon.
The Paragon system in a Fairy form looked at Anna and responded. "My na is Icon, I am Master Klaus’s most trusted assistant."
"Oh." The ladies smiled, knowing she was rely telling them what they had to know. Naturally, Icon could make herself invisible, and not even the gods would be able to see her.
However, knowing that these people are her master’s wives, she allowed them to see her.
"We should get started," Icon said, waving her hand, manifesting a spell circle.
"Sit in the middle, Asmodeus."
Asmodeus nodded and walked into the spell circle. He sat down and waited for Icon to begin her thing. She is decisive, and due to that, Asmodeus knew she was the best person to handle this task.
"Allow yourself to be connected to the link that will surface once I begin."
"Okay."
Icon nodded and retrieved the two cores and placed them inside the spell circle. Despite coming from planets, their sizes are no bigger than three adult heads.
The mont they touched the spell circle, the ground shook, and a powerful aura ca from the diagram, causing the ladies to move back a few ters just so they wouldn’t get killed.
"The summoning ritual has started. Do your best to keep hold of their soul threads while I work to make sure their summoning wouldn’t be interrupted."
Asmodeus was well aware of the dangers of this summoning. All undead that used to follow the Paragon of War were supposed to die, but since so of them remained, it clearly went against the heavens.
Asmodeus was easily summoned because he had a mirror soul. But the sa cannot be said for Erynx and Alesi.
However, thanks to Asmodeus’s genius mind, he was able to bind them to his limited soul, allowing them to hang between undead and death if there is such a place.
Now, with the ritual being perford, that connection was being forcefully opened, and in no ti, the gate will open, allowing them to be summoned yet again.
"It has started. Once I give the signal, summon them."
Asmodeus nodded again. Icon was drawing tiny runes in the air, with each rune causing the spell circle to grow brighter.
At the sa ti, the planet cores that were sustaining the spell circle were also shrinking in size, indicating how much energy was being channeled out from it.
The ladies stood vigilant, paying attention to what was happening. Aside from Lunara, Sofia, Lulu, and Nebula, none of them knew the two people Icon and Asmodeus were going through all this trouble to summon.
But the ones who knew them knew if just one of the two were to join the awakening, they would have a much bigger advantage.
Back in Klaus’s 7th incarnation, they witnessed the might of the three undead.
"Almost there," Icon muttered, paying even closer attention to the process. She had already completed the spell, and the only thing left was for the gates to open.
And they did...
"Do it now."
Icon said, and Asmodeus called out with authority.
"Heed thy call and answer thy summon, Eryx, the one-eyed demon spawn, son of the One Eye Demon God. I, Asmodeus, son of Jaded Maid, killer of the Demon King Muko, hereby summon you. Co forth and stand by your master yet again."
A dark gate slowly erged from the ground, standing 3 ters tall, with a dark portal swelling with necrotic energy.
The ladies distanced themselves yet again, not daring to stand closer to the gate of death or at least a replica of it.
From within, a 2-ter-tall man, wielding a two-ter-long sword, walked through, radiating the aura of a Peak Domain stage warrior.
He had two eyes, but one could tell they were fake, for the tattoo of the vertical eye on his forehead was his real eye. Just looking at the tattoo reeked of danger.
He was clad in dark armor with nothing but scratches from different weapons on the surface.
When he laid eyes on Asmodeus, a smile appeared on his face. The evil Asmodeus also laughed, but he wasn’t done yet.
He started to summon the last person.
"Heed thy call and answer thy summons, Alesi, the twin sword vixen. Daughter of the unknown, sister to the Great Evil Asmodeus. Co forth and stand by your master yet again."
From the sa gate Eryx ca from, a beauty clad in black leather armor, of which, looking at the amount of exposed skin alone, one would wonder why wear armor, walked out.
She held two swords and a disc-shaped item sheathed with 15 daggers that hovered behind her. As she walked, the feeling of death and peak domain stage warrior emanated from her, making Queenie and her sisters wonder just what kind of power she possessed.
"Her na is Alesi, one of the most dangerous won I have ever t," Lunara said, recalling the day of the awakening back in her past life.
Lulu, Nebula, and Sofia nodded. "She is indeed a nace. Glad she is back now." Nebula added.
"Don’t worry, sisters, we still have ti to get to know her, so you all can get a better understanding of her character." The ladies nodded.
Asmodeus had beco pale, looking at the lady glaring at him. He knew with her arrival, his days of peace were over.
"Welco to the land of the living," he said weakly, knowing that any second now, his torture would start.
Well, at least that was what he expected.
Alesi smiled at him, but instead of attacking, she bowed slightly. "Thanks, little brother. Because of you, I get to fight side by side with the master again."
Eryx also bowed slightly, causing Asmodeus to blank out for a mont. However, his true self returned the next second, forcing himself to stand up.
"No need to thank . I am, after all, the Great Asmodeus; bringing the undead back from the dead is sothing trivial for ."
Alesi just shook her head, but she smiled. However, she turned away from him before she couldn’t control herself and began torturing him.
She stared at the four ladies she recognized and smiled at them. However, just as she was scanning the rest of them, her gaze locked onto Queenie, causing her to pause and visibly shudder.
"The Blood Queen," she muttered.
"I know, right?" Asmodeus laughed. "Looks like the end of the cycle the master talked about had co. All of them were legendary warriors, but the fact that the Blood Queen is here is clearly unexpected."
"The fact that she is here makes all the difference. I am afraid that if the heavens haven’t tried to kill her yet, then they will try it during the awakening." Eryx shook his head.
"She has awakened her bloodline, aning they had tried already but failed. However, they will try again. After all, we both know the Blood Queen and the Blood King cannot reunite.
Now they have, and the outco is sothing I would love to see," Alesi walked toward Queenie and smiled at her.
"If one day you are assembling blood sisters again, even though I am not an Asura, I would like to beco one of them," Alesi said, flashing a puppy gaze.
"I don’t know what that is because I don’t know much about my past, but I will be sure to include you if that day were to co."
"Great. Can’t wait for that day."
Deep inside Queenie’s subconscious, a seal slowly opened, waiting for the right mont to co alive and paint the universe red again.
