Raptur looked back, seeing the massive black dragon glaring down at him with rage burning in its eyes. With Amaterasu ahead of him and Arad behind him, all his paths had been blocked. His life wasn't short, but he did spend the past few centuries chained down by Cronos. So this is why that loathso Titan decided it was ti to rest.
Cronos must've felt the bastard coming and left everything to him. He can fight to the bitter end, but those two are immune to all of his magic.
Arad is one massive problem, and Raptur isn't sure if Amaterasu even has emotions for him to manipulate.
He sighed, "Fine, you won't take down before I maim at least one of you." His wounds healed and his blood boiled, ready to face his death and fight to the end.
VON! Suddenly, sothing strange happened. A tiny humanoid landed on Raptur's shoulder. He was pale with burning green eyes, and his body crackled with spatial magic.
"You!" Raptur growled, but before he could finish speaking, the humanoid flew up and thrust his fist into Raptur's head, killing him. And almost imdiately, he ripped his own head off and fell dead as well.
Arad halted for a second. That humanoid was too small compared to their current size for him to notice him in ti. He had managed to steal the kill. But sothing was off.
Amaterasu looked at the two massive corpses and sighed. "That weirdo again." She flew toward Arad and stopped in front of him.
Arad shifted to his humanoid form and landed on the ground, prompting Amaterasu and her angels to approach him. The two angels gave him a gentle bow while Amaterasu remained seated on her sun, looking down at him from above.
"That one was Vorvadoss, or what remained of him. Now he is flying around and killing the important abominations before we get to them." She looked again at the corpses and sighed.
"When I or the other gods kill a powerful abomination, we can assure its soul never returns to Nyar."
After a mont of silence, one of the angels finished explaining, instead of Amaterasu, "The preparation takes about a minute, the stronger the abomination we want to fully erase, the longer ti we'll take preparing. We saw this one earlier, but didn't have enough to prepare."
The other angel added, "Vorvadoss might've lost his mind, but the mindless role he plays now as a suicide killer is no less annoying to us than any other active role he would've taken."
Just like how angels never truly die and simply return to their god after death, which allows them to grant them a new body to fight with. The abomination never dies. They return to Nyar, and he can give them new bodies to fight.
The gods had found a way to cut that cycle, but it takes ti. The only problem now was Vorvadoss, who teleports all over the battlefield and kills the vilest of abominations himself, returning them to Nyar before the gods could finish them off.
Amaterasu smiled, "Tell , my dear Arad. Where did you find this ugly thing?" She pointed with one finger at Cronos's corpse.
"Beneath the Storm Titan's mountain range. They had this monster called Cronos Raptur, which I suspected to be an Abomination, so I chased it, and this is what I ended with." Arad sighed and reached with his arm. He then sucked Cronos's corpse into his stomach.
"I'll return this to the Storm Titans. I'm sure they'd want to bury their ancestor." He then looked back at Amaterasu. "By the way, can you let it off?"
Amaterasu blinked twice, looked at him with a smile, and remained silent for a few seconds. "Ahh, you're talking about her. Isn't this none of your business?"
"It is indeed none of my business. But I'll speak up for my friend. I'm here with you now, but at the sa ti, I'm down there having a drink with him. He's pretty sad now." Arad waved his hand and teleported back into the universe, leaving Amaterasu alone.
She remained silent for a few seconds and then sighed.
"What do you two think?" She asked, and the two angels looked at her. One looked worried, and the other seed exhausted.
The worried angel spoke first, "I think Arad is right. You can't push things like this for a long ti. Sothing is bound to break."
The other angel sighed. "She is right. I believe I already told this a few days ago. It is ti to let go."
"Fine, fine. But it'll take ti to prepare. Which ans more hard work for you two." She clapped her hands together, and the two angels went back to their work. One brushed her hair, the other polished her nails.
As the two angels worked, Amaterasu's eyes flashed red, and more abomination settlents were blown off into ash by Amaterasu's exploding suns.
****
Arad landed back in the cavern where the fight between him and Raptur started. The whole place had lted into a pool of burning lava now. Good thing that monster decided to flee into the outer universe. It was almost impossible for Arad to keep the damage to a minimum.
He looked around, standing on the lava, and then shifted his attention back to his stomach. He had managed to retrieve eleven souls from Raptur besides Zenia's soul. But there is a big problem with them. They've all gone mad from the countless decades of suffering that horror brought on them.
Zenia's soul didn't fully go insane yet, but she is bound to have countless ntal issues. She was already suffering inside Raptur, but then Arad had to co out and violently rip her out of him. He tried to speak with her several tis now, but she seed to see him as another monster similar to Raptur. Who else could snatch souls like that?
Did he have ti to ask her nicely back then? Probably yes, probably not, but that doesn't matter now. Her body should be outside with Tyal, and her soul is now inside him. If he can fix her body, then he'll be able to test if he could sow a sentient soul back to its body.
This would be a step forward toward giving Doma a body.
