Chapter 57 - A Cold Embrace (2)

"Evelyn! Nathan!" Came Desrian's voice, but Nathan didn't care. To him, nothing mattered anymore, the one thing he cared about was gone, she was dead, bleeding out against his body.

Desrian let out a roar of rage, charging at Lily, a broadsword held at his side skidding across the ground. Lily waved her hand, sending a shockwave of aura through the air that crashed into Desrian, his bones shattering from the impact as his body was sent through the air.

"So annoying." Lily spoke. "Do you have any idea how irritating it was to play house with you idiots? It was basically torture." She was silent for a moment, her eyes on Nathan.

He didn't care about anything else, his eyes were locked on Evelyn's emotionless face. His world had been shattered, he couldn't hear or see anything around him, or rather, he didn't care to.

"You really loved that bitch, didn't you? Too bad, she's dead now." Lily said with a shrug. She then raised her sword, putting the blade against Nathan's cheek, Evelyn's blood smearing across his face. He didn't even flinch, at that point he didn't care whether he died or not, the only thing he could think of was how he never told her...

Lily laughed, her body beginning to change, two horns curling from her hand and a pair of stark white feathered wings growing from her back. She lowered the sword.

"My name isn't Lily, just for your information, it's Lilith. And I am very impressed you all managed to kill Ballakon, you did us demons a great favor." She said. "Two birds with one stone, right?"

She walked past Nathan. "I'm not going to kill you. You are already dead."

She flew into the air, rising up a couple hundred feet before flying over Ballakon's head. She snapped her fingers and cracks were struck into the ground, emitting a red glow. Black chains flew from these cracks, wrapping around Ballakon's body.

"I'll be taking this. I wish you all luck." She said.

"Lily!" Came Desrian's voice again. She looked over to see him barely standing, leaning against his sword, blue aura surrounding his body. "Go to hell!"

"Oh, I plan on it." She responded. She then waved her finger, and his body contorted, his back shattering as he was bent backwards violently before falling to the ground dead.

Lilith laughed. "What a fool. They said you were the strongest of the Deities other than Mato and Lyra, what a joke!"

Just then the sky filled with a blue shade. Lilith looked up. "What's this?"

Five spears of blue light had formed high in the clouds, illuminating the earth below. The first of them slowly began to descend, followed by the others. Lilith waved her hand, knocking one of the spears of course. As it crashed into a mountain in the distance, it erupted, the earth quaking, and the mountain was completely obliterated, leaving nothing left, as if it had never been there to begin with. The other four slowly picked up speed falling towards Lilith.

"Impressive, I see you left a gift before you died. Too bad it won't work." She said, holding up her hand, a pulse of aura crashing into the spears. A blinding blue light flashed across the earth, making it almost impossible to see as the auras clashed in a massive explosion that corroded away layers of earth from the sheer power.

Lilith smiled, about to make a comment as the light faded out, but then her eyes went wide, Sedori appearing in the air in front of her. She held out her hand as he thrust his sword at her, followed by a dozen other weapons, but they all stopped in their tracks as if they had struck an invisible wall. Then Lilith let out a cry of pain, a small sword stabbing through her shoulder. She waved her hand, a wave of aura knocking Sedori away.

When he landed, he found the ground to be slick and hard. He looked down and his eyes widened when he saw that a layer of ice had began to grow from the ground. He quickly leapt upwards to a higher level to avoid being caught in the sealing magic.

Lilith smirked. "Well, it was fun- not. I will be taking my leave now." She snapped her fingers and a flash of red light illuminated from the chains holding Ballakon, and he was then dragged downwards into the earth as Lilith faded into a cloud of red mist. The ground swallowed Ballakon, before the crack then closed over, being covered in ice. She had gotten away.

Nathan didn't care about the ice, he let it engulf his body as it rose. The cold didn't affect him, nothing did anymore. He was broken, lost in his own regret. As the ice rose, swallowing his body, his last thought was how he regretted being unable to tell her he loved her.
