At the crack of dawn, it was still dark but the sun already showed signs of rising, Abyss, Vanessa as well as Raven could be scene standing Infront of the mansion's doors.
"Alright are you both ready" abyss asked. "Yes" Vanessa and raven said at the same time. Abyss held both of their waist on his left respectively, which was a rather a funny sight as abysd in his child form was quite short. Both girls were same height standing at 5.4feet where as abyss was 1.4 meters.
"Good let's go, gate" abyss said and a red light covered them and disappeared along with them. Seconds later a red light appeared in dark alley and disappeared and in it's place the trio stood. "Wow 😲 that was so cool" raven exclaimed.
"Ok 👍 listen right now we're in the neighbouring kingdom Salamander so be careful and try not to stand out or else you'll be caught and killed on sight here take these rings inside are 100 gold coins for each do whatever you want with the until I come and get you "abyss explained to them.
" Thanks brother anyway how do we use these rings we've never used them before "Vanessa asked. " Oh i almost forgot to use them send put them on and send a bit of your mana to them and they will be connected you , they allow you to store anything except living things inside anyway that's about everything if you encounter any trouble just call me for and I'll come right away bye "abyss said and sank into his shadow.
A while later Vanessa and raven could be seen walking through the market district in the capital. The street was filled with dozens of different kinds shops , weapon stores, Cake stores, book stores etc.
" Hey Vanessa so yesterday you never told me how your brother got that strong like you said you would "Raven posed a question. " You really are persistent aren't you, I thought you had forgotten about that "Vanessa replied.
" So are you gonna tell me or not"raven asked. " Honestly it's not that i don't wanna tell you, its just that even I don't know how he got that strong but if you really want to know you can just ask him yourself "Vanessa said with a smirk.
" What where would I even began, sorry but I'm not ready to die yet" raven exclaimed. "Really... what makes you say that" vanessa asked as she was truly confused. 🌿"Remember when he came to our school as a cat 🐈 and when I tried to pet him he said if I'm not mistaken'do not touch me if you don't want to lose that hand girl 'so what do you think he would do if I tried asking him something personal when we're not even close"raven said with a horror stricken face.
" Hahaha oh yeah that happened, I had forgotten about it hahaha but don't worry I'll ask him for you "Vanessa said.
" Nah forget about it, somehow I get the feeling that I wouldn't be able to handle it if I knew maybe I might even die literally if I actually got to know the truth "raven said seriously.
" Smart move "Vanessa said.
Meanwhile...
" So tell me king Raymond what do you choose salvation or annihilation ".Abyss said while speaking to the king of the kingdom of Bliss.
The king a young man of about 25 who just became king 3 years ago after his father died of old age was arrogant and declared war on abyss's home kingdom was now sweating buckets while contemplating where he went wrong.
"Time is ticking little boy answer quickly you have 10 seconds... 10,9,8..." Abyss said and began the countdown.
The young king ran his hands through his golden hair, sadness and rage could be scene in his ocean blue eyes.
"4,3,2-
"No matter how strong you are you can't take on an entire kingdom on your own so my decision still stands we of the kingdom of Bliss wage war on your kingdom "king Raymond said full of confidence.
" Huh I expected more from you, I guess I was wrong... choose your decisions carefully in the next life "abyss said and stretched out his hand.
With his outstretched hand abyss made a fist and Raymond's body began convulsing up on his golden throne, his skin bubbling as if his blood was boiling from the inside which is exactly what's happening. Abyss opened his palm and Raymond body exploded into crystalized blood spikes from the neck down while his head was impaled through the mouth sticking it to the throne, his eyes widened in horror painting a terrifying mess of blood and gore.
Abyss moved towards the right wall and placed his right hand on it "curse of the damned, deathly wails" Abyss said and as those words left his mouth ominous sounds began playing inside the castle terrifying the workers, Raymond's ghost came of his body the expression on its corporeal form sickening as it showed extreme horror it's body made of deathly pale spikes.
It's hands unattached to it's body floating beside it with 6 inch claws extending from it's fingers. It moved out of the throne room and encountered a maid and raised it's claws and sliced her into a bloody bless "aaaahhhh" with a final scream the maid died and her ghost appeared as well,like that they began killing the inhabitants of the castle each fallen person would join the killing spree cursed to forever haunt the castle.
Some tried to run but the doors would not open trapping them inside, the same could be said for the ones outside as the gates would not open and the walls couldn't even be jumped as if an invisible force was preventing them from leaving.
A swirl of flames rose from the ground up covering abyss bottom to top and they they disappeared along with him. They reappeared in the market district just Infront of Vanessa and Raven stunning them and the spectators all around.
"Brother what's goi-
" We will talk later lets go"abyss said and held their waists and they all disappeared in a swirl of flames and reappeared outside the border of the abyss kingdom.
Abyss let go of their waists and crouched and touched down with his right hand" All may enter but None shall for this land is cursed for all eternity ... Devour and Destroy, Death's Domain "abyss said and strange black markings appeared on the ground around his hand , they glowed for a few a few seconds and the land inside the bliss kingdom border started decaying, the grass turned white, the stems of trees turned turned white and the leaves turned black while some tress and plants withered.
This curse spread quickly and a minute later the entire bliss kingdom was turned into a domain of death and decay. Black ominous storm clouds appeared above the bliss kingdom and a black eternal rain began puring wildly. Forms villages, to towns and to entire cities people began dying of disease black spots appearing on the bodies and their forms withering quickly those who didn't die of disease were killed by the ghosts 👻 of the fallen forever cursed to wonder this forsaken land and kill anyone who dares enter.
"Raven, tell me are you satisfied now? This is the power that someone who can leave the continent at will bring" abyss said while staring at raven. His red eyes devoid of emotion, terrifying her , her instincts telling her to run from those red soulless eyes and yet she stood.
"Do not be frightened, I would not bring harm to my sister's close friends, when you are with me you are at your safest also you must be wondering how I knew you wanted to how strong I was " abyss said.
Raven looked towards Vanessa frightened by her calm demeanor despite the horror happening in front of them, Vanessa looked towards her as well and gave her a look that says I've seen worse.
"No she didn't tell me as mind reading is just one of my many abilities" abyss said with a chuckle and snapped his fingers, lightning descended upon them and disappeared along with it.
