Chereads / Dainsleif: Grand order / Chapter 52 - Return of the queen

Chapter 52 - Return of the queen

A person who has possession of a celestial spirit is called a sealer. A sealer who has full control over its celestial spirit is considered to be one of the most powerful beings on earth. There are five stages of transformation a sealer can go through, the berserk mode, the cloak seal mode, the Rion seal mode, the Rengoku seal mode, and the bankai seal mode.

The berserk mode is the weakest transformation of all, the sealer received a limited amount of power which would make your aura surround you (like Mitsuki) or which would change one of your facial features (like Jason's hair).

The cloak seal mode is the most uncontrollable, the user receives a vast amount of power, however, the user is no more able to control his body, and if he lasts too long in that state, he becomes submerged by evil aura, and the celestial spirit takes possession of the body. The cloak seal mode envelopes you with a purple cloak aura and tails come out of the user depending on the celestial spirit's ranking, for example, Jason having the 4th celestial body, will develop 4 tails.

The Rion seal mode, the bankai seal mode, and the Rengoku seal mode have never been obtained by any sealer before meaning that there is no information on what it is, and how devastating its power is.

Jason was slowly losing consciousness as his eyes were rolling up, and he was releasing his grip on the arm Gruel was using to choke him. Slowly, the screams of Laexa shouting his name, and the explosion created by the others were heard from far by Jason, as if they were echoes.

"Let it take possession of you... You cannot resist it, all you can do is let it invade you, or else DEATH awaits you," the inner voice from Jason's head was getting higher while the voice from his friends was fading away.

Jason woke up to appear in a chamber in which he saw a big gate in front of it. Jason walked towards the tall and imposing gate. As he walked closer to it, he could feel a power getting closer to him.

'Is all that rush of energy coming from the other side of the gate?' Jason thought getting closer to the gate and reaching for it.

At that moment, only his fingertip reached the gate, but he felt an intense power emanating from the other side. He fell back to the ground in horror for the power was of such a big amount of evilness.

"This isn't a gate..." The voice coming from the other side was the Ice King's voice.

'Why is his voice coming from above?' Jason asked himself.

"hehe hehe, do you really think that hideous form of mine was my real appearance? I am the Ice King, the most majestic evil creature this planet has ever known!"

A big and imposing Dragon of Ice appeared from the darkness and presented himself with dignity and intimidation In front of the gate.

"I've got to admit, Dragon you are way better than human you... but tell me, if this isn't a gat, what is it?" Jason asked looking up at the dragon.

"You are not very smart for a talented boy... You are a sealer, so what do you think this gate is? It's the seal which contains me inside of you... but when my power will take possession of you, you will remove this seal and free me!" The ice King replied in a sinister tone looking straight down at Jason.

"What do you mean your power!? Aaargh, what's happening to me, my skin, it's ripping off me!" Jason screamed while his skin was slowly getting torn while a purple cloak of aura was taking its place.

"It's too late, you are mine now!" The Ice King screamed.

Once Jason was out cold, Gruel released him, and Jason fell to the ground.

"Not so tough anymore huh?" Cobra said smiling.

"Jason, stand up, it's not the time to sleep right now!" Alexa said with wet eyes.

Mitsuki tried to help Jason, but Cobra blocked his way and the other students were also occupied fighting other villains. Jason was on his own this time, and Gruel was already heading toward Alexa to take care of her as well.

"What did you do to Jason!" Alexa shouted at Gruel with tears in her eyes.

"Don't worry Princess, I only knocked him out, but I don't think he's gonna survive. I'm pretty sure that the celestial spirit will devour him from the inside!" Gruel said pulling Alexa up by the hair.

Suddenly, a massive amount of aura started to spread around the area. The aura was so intense that the waves of wind were blowing on their face. Gruel released Alexa, while Bruce who was watching from the sidelines understood the situation, and wanted to interfere, but he was too weak.

"What's going on?" Lucretia wondered looking around.

It was not long until they all figured that the aura was coming from Jason. His body was getting covered from a thick armor of aura which was shaping into a dragon. Wings started to come out of his back, and tails started to appear.

"I've got to intervene!" Bruce said trying to run in the direction of the scene, but the nerf effect was still operational making his sickness greater.

"Crap!" Bruce shouted punching the wall of the building they were in and spitting out blood, "what type of number 1 am I!?"

Only the principal and Bruce knew what was happening, but they were both too weak to even stand a chance against the beast in front of them. The principal was on the verge of death, while Bruce was nearly about to pass out due to the nerf effect amplifying his sickness

Gruel and Alexa who were the closest to Jason would feel the heat of the evil aura coming out of him. At the moment his transformation was complete, the waves of wind stopped, and beast Jason had his eyes closed.

"What is going on?" Lucy froze not even moving an inch, while Mitsuki observed beast Jason closely.

"This aura, why is it so similar to mine?" Mitsuki whispered with his eyes wide open and his jaw dropped.

"It's just a stupid transformation of his, I am pretty sure his ower didn't change at all!" Gruel then prepared a beam of aura which he projected towards beast Jason.

The beam hit beast Jason right in the chest sending him right through a wall and inside the building. Once beast Jason was inside the building, Gruel sent a fireball which exploded once inside the building and making it collapse.

The building squashed beast Jason who was to be seen nowhere. Everyone assumed that he was under the pile of broken pieces of the building.

"Jason!!!" Ian shouted using his brand new advanced elemental to send a lava ball to Gruel who deviated the trajectory of the lava ball by simply sending an aura ball.

Ian let out a surprised expression taking a few steps backward. Tyler's ankle was still stuck under the tree, however, it seemed like he was watching attentively and completely forgot about his ankle. There was a moment of silence in which everyone was waiting for something to happen in their favor. Even Gruel, although showing a menacing face was not sure what he had to do.

Suddenly, a big flow of aura could be felt under the remains of the scrap building. They all turned their head to the building's ruins and started realizing something very astonishing. The aura was converting itself into an atomic blast.

The air was getting tense, and the aura was starting to take the shape of an orb around the ruins which was expanding slowly. Bruce, who understood what was happening immediately decided to reveal himself from his hideout and run in the student's direction telling them to gather next to Tyler.

"Everyone run to Tyler, there is gonna be an explosion!" Bruce shouted grabbing the student who was watching over him by the collar in the process.

A few students' reaction time was very slow, and Bruce could only gather a few students around him to protect them.

Bruce then created a purple transparent compact cube of aura around them to protect them. This technique Bruce used is called the perfect shield. On the other hand, the other demons and rebels including the other students attempted to find shelter in vain.

Lucy looked at the atomic sphere which started to compress smaller and smaller. Even the most stupid of them would have understood that a massive explosion would follow. Lucy, you could clearly see her fate looked at the students who were safe in the perfect shield.

"I guess it's it for me..." she said slowly with tears pouring through her cheeks while she looked at her friends with a smile.

Before Ella could even shout Lucy's name out, a massive explosion occurred just as predicted. The explosion was so deadly, that it carbonated the ones who were not strong enough to withstand it. Most of the rebels and the rebel captains (including demons) were carbonated at a point even their skeleton disappeared just to leave space to a massive amount of dust.

Most importantly, the students in the cube saw their friends vanish in a matter of seconds to leave just an infernal environment behind them. Every single building was wiped out, and even the sky was submerged by a massive amount of smoke. The cracks on the ground filled with lava, and the vast land looked just like a living hell.

"Lucy..." Ella cried out falling to her knees and covering her face with her hands mourning her friend's death.

Bruce, even with his powers being nerfed, managed to contain the perfect shield in place long enough for them to survive the deadly explosion. Bruce still affected by the nerf fell to the ground breathing heavily.

"Look... despite the explosion, there are still a few survivors!" Dylan shouted pointing at Gruel, Cobra, and most importantly the principal.

They were severely injured, at a point, they could barely move their heads. Each of the villains was on the ground but was still conscious.

Ella, still thinking about her friend's death held a dagger made of her wind in her hand and slowly started walking in Cobra's direction.

"What do you think you're doing!?" Tyler shouted trying to hold her back by grabbing her hand, but Ella immediately rejected Tyler's attempt to stop her giving away an expression that clearly shows what her intentions are.

Once in front of Cobra, she held the dagger firmly in her hands and lifted it right above Cobra who was lying on the ground head faced to the sky.

"You... do not have what it takes..." Cobra said weakly letting out a painful laugh.

This only infuriated Ella even more who swiftly swung her dagger at Cobra, but at the last moment, when the tip of her weapon was a few millimeters away from Cobra's chest, another explosion was heard from the skies.

Everyone looked up and could see the once black female-shaped dust of darkness taking a more ameliorated shape. It was taking shape, changing its skin color into a type f beige skin color, and blonde long hair. Her curves started to take form putting into value her feminine characteristics, and her blonde hair started to expand to become long enough to reach her knees. The dust of darkness around her covered her intimate parts to make a type of black suit similar to a spy's one. Finally, a dark mask with two holes for her to see appeared on her face.

The principal who watched everything let out a slight smile

"Hehe... you are all doomed, all of you. The queen has returned!"
