Chereads / Seed Of The Stars / Chapter 167 - Neverending Onslaught

Chapter 167 - Neverending Onslaught

Nezha hunkered down to the floor, staring at his now exposed stomach.

A hook embedded itself into his stomach, with chains that slowly spread around his body.

『...Damn it, looks like I played around too much today...』[Nezha]

He stared forth at the dust going around.

『Pfft… I made contact with his spear so much that I actually had trouble controlling the energy that was in my body… But I guess there isn't any gain without some pain...』[Nezha]

He grabbed at the hook in his stomach and made an attempt to pull it out.

『...It's inhibiting my mana the more I let it stay… get… ou-!』[Nezha]

He quickly ended his sentence as his eye jet straight up toward the dust and he used his staff to push off the ground and make him collapse to his left.

No sooner did he do that before a spear jet out of the dust and pierce through the place his head used to be.

It went on for a while before it went through several buildings, causing them to collapse.

The dust was blown away, following the spear.

Once Nezha managed to open his eyes again, he noticed Reagan- still standing, albeit with bloody injuries, disheveled hair, and torn clothing.

『...You bastard!』[Nezha]

He pulled himself off the floor with his staff.

『...So, you get stronger with each time we exchange blows.』[Reagan]

Nezha began to glow the same orange as the tip of his staff.

『WOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAH!』[Nezha]

The mana in the area got hotter and hotter.

『Domain! Helios Ring!』[Nezha]

An orange pulse spread throughout the area, but before it could reach Reagan-

『Domain. Throne of Odin!』[Reagan]

A giant marble throne appeared behind Reagan while the marble continued to spread until the two abilities clashed, causing the marble to stop spreading when it met with the orange mana.

Xandis slithered around Reagan's neck, resting there.

『...Hurry it up, won't you?』[Reagan]

He created another spear, immediately getting into a lunging stance.

Nezha's excitement seemed to mix with his anger, causing a confusing mix of emotions to overwhelm him as he whispered to himself.

『...Is this… Is this… fear…?』[Nezha]

The throne of marble put forth an immense amount of pressure, causing Nezha's legs to tremble.

After gathering himself, he screamed.

『AAAAAAAAAAH! Pri...Primordial SPARK!』[Nezha]

The orange aura around him and around his Domain had begun to cling to each other, forming countless floating orbs that caught fire.

He then took his staff and embedded the bottom into the ground.

『Shakujo!』[Nezha]

The aura that was around him flowed into the staff.

With that, he let go of the staff and stared at Reagan with a bitter look.

『...God damn it… DAMN YOU, OLD MAN!』[Nezha]

He took out a crystal that shone with glowing white orbs inside of it.

Reagan looked at it for a moment before he realized what it was.

『A teleport crystal?!』[Reagan]

『I'm not going to let you kill me once this stupid fuckin' chain fully seals my mana. But don't worry, I'll be back to visit your body.』[Nezha]

He threw the spear he just created, but one of the flaming orange orbs suddenly flung itself at the spear and blew up.

『Tch.』[Reagan]

The crystal filled with orange mana particles before it cracked open and a flash of bright light caused him to vanish from sight.

Reagan was blinded for a moment, but the second he opened his eyes, he saw a mass of flames coming at him.

『Shi-!』[Reagan]

Instead of it blowing up in front of his face, Xandis had jumped in front of Reagan and blocked it.

Reagan stared open-eyed at Xandis falling to the ground.

『Xandis?!』[Reagan]

Once the flames dissipated, he saw hundreds of flaming orbs around where the staff was.

『...Shit!』[Reagan]

He scooped up Xandis, who was now severely injured with damaged scales.

Reagan looked at the wounds on Xandis, assessing the strength of the orbs.

「...That was meant to kill me.」[Reagan]

Xandis weakly flicked his tongue out, bits of his tail turning into orbs of light.

「...Return and heal, Xandis.」[Reagan]

He helped Xandis crawl into his mental space as he stood up to face the hundreds of orbs that floated about, as if gauging his strength.

『...Divine Rebellion.』[Reagan]

The moment he uttered those words, tens of purple and black lances materialized in the air, pointed toward the orbs.

No sooner than he did that did the orbs begin to start flying at him.

The lances began to be sent forth at a high speed and velocity, impaling the orbs and blowing them up rapidly.

The second that a lance blew up, another lance materialized to take its place.

He kept this up until something strange started to happen around Nezha's staff.

The orange mana around the staff began to materialize itself as a bulky humanoid silhouette.

『Tch.』[Reagan]

He sent a lance into the silhouette, but that only stopped it for a moment.

『The hell?!』[Reagan]

He sent another two lances into it, but it kept powering through.

He decided it would be better to run, so he was about to slip into one of the nearby alleyways when some blood suddenly spurted out of an open wound.

『Gguh..!』[Reagan]

Reagan took a step back, deciding to put more effort into attacking the orbs instead.

『...Damn it. I can't even run in this state.』[Reagan]

As the orange silhouette got closer to him, he could see more being formed behind it.

Regardless, he kept his cool as he continued to blow up the orbs and back up as he could.

Eventually, he had hit his limit, clearly, as he fell to his knees, still trying his best to fend off the orbs and silhouette, which had shrugged off all of the lances he sent through it.

『...Shit.』[Reagan]

It was at this point that the silhouette had finally raised its arm, ready to slam Reagan into dust.

But suddenly, the golem was blown away by an invisible force, causing it to dissolve into the air.

Not too soon after, Reagan's vision was filled by someone's back.

They turned back to him, revealing a glowing set of purple eyes.

『...Are you alright, teacher?』[Oswald]
