The celestials beast took their sibling from the platform and flew close to where Rahz and the others were at, up in the sky. There was definitely enough firepower to destroy Nefarious in one shot but the problem was that Rahz was not sure if the dragon had a defensive ace under his sleeve and using World Divider strong enough to kill Nefarious couldn't be used more than once.
"We can help you restrain him, so you can use Apocalypse" said the beasts in unison
It was light at the end of the tunnel for the team and it came at the right moment, screams came from the platform as the members of the God of Justice standing on it were hit by a couple of abilities and were unable to withstand them with their barriers and were tossed into the air and scattered on the platform.
The members of Blackrock sneer at them, Silverwing was known for their defensive prowess and looked at them now, they were the first ones to cave under the pressure.
"You kids ready, I can't hold him much longer"
Nefarious heard the old man and intensified his attacks; however, in youth we learn; in age we understand. It was all a play by the old man to take Nefarious focus from the group.
It was extremely important that the plan was executed in one fell swoop and it all started with the elder. While Nefarious was attacking him, the celestial beast took their positions around him, the White Tiger to the west, the Dragon to the East, The Bird to the south and Ox to the North.
A magic circle appeared underneath the area between them and a Yin-Yang symbol that rotated in a counterclockwise direction appeared right in the middle underneath Nefarious.
CELESTIAL PRISON
Nefarious felt all his energies in disarray and he lost his ability to move, even the phenomena outside stopped. The magic circle shook as Nefarious struggled but Rahz wasn't going to let the chance pass.
DEMONIC TRANSFORMATION
RUNE BURST X 12
The Scales in Nefarious body tingled and he knew that what was coming was dangerous. Rahz held Apocalypse up and swung it with all his might.
WORLD DIVIDER
RIPP… FOOSH
Blood sprayed out of Rahz muscles but unlike the last time, he held on. The people standing around heard a popping noise followed by the sound of something being sucked into a vacuum. The fabric of space was cut open right along Nefarious body from the base of his two heads including the left one which pop like a balloon and were destroyed by the space forces into nothingness.
Everyone else was left with their mouths right open but only Rahz responded quickly, while everyone was trying to process what happened, Rahz observed that Nefarious right head moved at the last second and saved itself before moving towards him at a fast pace with jaws wide open.
Rahz uncork the gourd at this waist and with the last bit of strength activated its skill that didn't use much power since the creature in question was moving right to it.
WHOOSH
Nefarious felt a pulling force but he couldn't stop his momentum and was sucked right into it. Rahz smiled and without any more strength started falling from the sky while second wind was activated.
"THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE…
LORD ODOS WILL BE VERY PLEASE...
YOU WILL NOT BE REMEMBERED"
….
SUN CLEAVE
…
SLASH
Riddick saw it all but all he could do was extend his arm trying to grasp at something but all he got was empty air. Degark saw it and his face felt and all he thought was 'OH SHIT' before activating FEIGN DEATH. His body twisted around and fell on the floor like a broken doll.
Rahz looked at his body but the cut never came, instead he felt a warm energy entered his body and it was an energy he knew too well.
The moment he looked back, he didn't see the face of Pendragon but that of his lovely wife before a red line appeared in the middle of her face and her body started burning into ash.
KE KE KE
Rahz couldn't think for a second but in that moment the worst happened, the Embodiment of Pain, the second piece of the Avatar of the Plaguebringer set that looked like a shriveled head came to life. It was the same item that was depicted in many of the statues belonging to Loux and what people remembered the most.
It was the item whose mouth opened up to bring pathogens from the plane of pestilence but this time it was the reverse. It opened his mouth and sucked in Elune's Soul before a mini portal opened and it disappeared without a trace. There was no way that Loux would pass up such wonderful amount of spirit and the Embodiment of Pain was her insurance to take it all to the plane of pestilence.
Elune was the one that understood Rahz the most, she knew the strain the skill put on Rahz's body and that she needed to be ready to help, unfortunately, she was not the only one. The followers of the God of Justice had received the report after omega's defeat and were waiting for the opportunity to act. They even fake being hurt by Nefarious skills in order to conserve energy and help their leader against the retaliation of the other forces once the deed was done and Rahz was dead.
The time came and they took action but never did they imagine the outcome, they not only fail to kill Rahz, they killed his wife and sent her soul to the plane of pestilence.
Pendragon wanted to say that it was all him, that people in the cities were innocent but no words came out when he saw tears of blood come out of Rahz's eyes.
Rahz was still on his Demonic form and just stared into the empty space, it was the longest 30 seconds in everyone's lives.
"GIVE ME HIS ESSENCE"
It was a command to the gourd before he took a giant sip and the essence of Nefarious flowed down his throat, scales started to cover his entire body and his eyes became dragon like once more.
…..
Rahz move extremely fast and before anybody saw what happened, his hand was inside pendragons body and was extracting his heart. It was so fast that pendragon's body was still alive and was able to see what happened next… rows of teeth started chomping on his heart.
Apocalypse was then grabbed very tightly and all the angered that he had repressed came out as he started cutting the corpse screaming non stop, DIE DIE DIE .
Pendragon's body was chopped at least 100 times before Rahz's attention turned to the people on the platform and it was a massacre, the lucky ones were chopped down and died quickly while others got their limbs cut and an organ eaten.
Nobody knew what to do and just observe, even Riddick stood still. When there were no more people on the platform silence ensued.
Rahz walked towards a body and said, "From now on the church of the God of Justice in Elysian is no more. I will mourn my wife for a month and then I will go to Silverwing City if I see anything that resemble Odos at all, let alone a follower I will kill everything in sight and then go to BlackRock Port and do the same"
Degark stood up, nodded and left.
50 years later, in the highest tower of Silverwing, a top a bustling city…
Rahz was sitting down listening to the conversation of two gnomes that were drinking Ale as he absorbed the energy provided by the four celestial beast.
"You know, you can say the word and we can start the ritual to make you a god. There is no need for you to absorb energy like this to increase your level. There is no one stronger than you in the realm" said Xiao Bai
Rahz continued quietly while the gnomes continue their babbling.
"You Know Rahz… I helped you against Venekious and even brought you the Mask of the Flame King, the least you could have done was to help me reincarnate into a Barbarian… Vulcan was a great model so Why! Why! a Gnome, no offense bud" said Jazz looking at the second gnome in the room
"Offense taken" said Giant Blade before continuing " What are you complaining about, aren't you married to my beautiful niece… hundreds of people would kill for getting her favor you know"
Jazz sneered and said "I was tricked… I was drinking Ale in the gnome city when Ella appeared and got me drunk before taking advantage of me. Next thing I know, I am naked in a strange bed and that bully elemental of hers is standing over me before restraining me and taking me to the church butt naked"
Rahz was listening to the same story he had heard for years now, when out of his shadow a short sword came out and was thrusted into his skull.
Clink
The Short sword snapped in two and then a sigh came while the shape of a sexy girl in a ninja outfit took form….
"The portal to the Plane of Pestilence has been completed"
Rahz face contorted into a smile astonishing all the people in the room. It was something they hadn't seen in 50 years.
"Let's go get your mother"
