The cloud above the battlefield began to get hotter. Bryce was under it supplying it with enough energy.
" That's his soul bond character" Yocubu said " Stop him" he shouted.
The Oracles upon hearing Yocubu swung into action executing a combined wave of energy blast towards Bryce.
BOOM!
The energy blast launched towards Bryce suddenly came to a standstill after colliding with a barrier.
" What the..." Phil said totally unsure of what just happened. It seemed a greater power had just emerged and blocked their joint energy blast effectively. And whatever that was must be really really strong.
The Oracles turned to see the four ( aside from Bryce still using his soul weapon ) from The Thirteen in a different way. The five of them were clad in white apparels glowing with pure energy. Their bodies emanated the blue aura mightily and totally replaced their first auras. In addition, they looked renewed with new vigour and power. Their hairs turned white fully as if they had aged for hundred of years, and their eyes caused one to fall back in fear and trembling.
" What is going on here" Pete asked totally bewildered. What they were seeing now was something they had always wanted to see since they were Oracles at an early age. This was the power of ' Spirit instinct'. Spirit instinct had several forms that grew from weaker to stronger, but what they were seeing was the highest and most profound level of Spirit instinct.
Spirit instinct began with imperfect spirit instinct being the first stage. Then the imperfect god spirit instinct, following next was the god spirit instinct. These stages were powerful but the next following these were more powerful. Ultra imperfect spirit instinct, ultra imperfect god spirit instinct and ultra spirit instinct. Getting to this level was already considered very very good. The next were Perfect spirit instinct, perfect god spirit instinct, ultra perfect spirit instinct, ultra perfect god spirit instinct. The most powerful and highest was the Spirit instinct.
One in this level was totally untouchable and unbeatable.
" I can't believe it, we are actually back" La'Sel said looking like one that just won a jackpot.
" Damn, I never for a moment thought that I'll be seeing myself in this form again" Gaius said clenching his fists. " It has been so long" he added.
These transformed five turned their gaze towards the Oracles. Their stare alone emanated power.
" Let me tell you something before you all die" Ka'Zel said smiling.
In the wall, the remaining Oracles were already shaking just witnessing what was going on in the battlefield.
" This power is so much, how did this happen?" Yera-Cudra thought. Philip on his own was already full of smiles witnessing the power of the four representing them.
" For a moment I thought it wasn't possible for them to tap into that power again" Philip said. While saying this, things were getting more confusing for the Oracles.
" This is a secret you'll hear and never be able to tell anyone" Ka'Zel said. With a flick of his hands, he sent the five Oracles crashing into the ground.
" A time ago, we were like you ; Oracles. Yes we were Oracles. We did our jobs very well protecting different lands from all sort of troubles, but never was our work appreciated. But, we weren't after appreciation, but our duties. After we lived for centuries, it was time to go and allow new Oracles to take over. We as the twelve Oracles decided to allow our bodies become manure for a Nation where we weren't appreciated. But, three people stopped us from doing this; Judais, Philip and Bryce. They didn't allow us to make a fool out of ourselves, they also came with an idea. With our immense power, they wanted us to unite all villages surrounding the Tierurus and rule them. We had our oppositions at first knowing fully well that one day nature would have its course and we would die, but, this was to be taken care of. Judais and Bryce used their life energy to take time back for us to get our new bodies while being replenished by Philip's ability's energy. That is why Philip has no ability. With this done, we were so happy only to find out the setback it had. Our power as Oracles was sealed but we still had our strength. Realising this, we got new abilities and with that we conquered the whole of the Caribbean. We needed to set a ruler, and the strongest amongst us was Judais. Judais ruled us mercilessly since he was stronger than us. We finally set him up against commander Zen and he died. Philip since he had taken such a sacrifice for us then took over the rulership. Now you have brought back the power of the ancient Oracles, you are no match for us. Pushing us to the limit, we are back to full strength, and not even Zen can take on us again" Ka'Zel said.
The look on the faces of the Oracles told it all, they were finished and shocked. They had never in their wildest imagination thought that The Thirteen were their predecessors.
The remaining Oracles were then thrown out to the battlefield to face their destruction.
" We will rule, and you cannot do anything to stop it" Philip said to the Oracles. " From now on, Oracles will cease to be as you are all nuisances" Philip added.
Following this, all The Thirteen excepting Bryce and Philip entered the final spirit instinct state. They began to sap the energy and power of the Oracles from them till they were nothing.
The Oracles at first wanted to fight back, but then decided to accept their fate. There was no way they could fight The Thirteen again.
Turning and moving away, Philip said to Bryce " Finish them off". The fire cloud which had been suspended above since suddenly fell down on the Oracles completely destroying them.
" No...... Yera-Cudra shouted before being consumed.
The Thirteen went out and wiped out the remaining soldiers of the Oracles, then resurrecting theirs to become stronger warriors.
Out of nowhere, Heron suddenly arrived and bowed down to The Thirteen " Long live The Thirteen" he said.
Philip looked at him and stretched forth his hands to Heron.....
Out there in the academy, Jason had no idea that things just got very hard for him to take his revenge.
