Chereads / Tensura : [Charybdis] / Chapter 42 - War [The Queen]

Chapter 42 - War [The Queen]

Charybdis sat upon her throne on the massive, dragon-shaped ship, cables connecting her armor to the ship.

From the outside, her eyes glowed an ethereal blue, but within, she was immersed in the ship's interface, her vision filled with streams of data and system analytics.

Her army had already teleported to the demon realm, and now it was time for her to make her move.

She could see the battle unfolding through her interface, each soldier's position marked and updated in real-time by their weapons and the small spiritual chips.

Her mind was a storm of calculations, strategies, and predictions, all working towards one goal: complete subjugation of the demon realm.

The ship hummed with power, the reactors working tirelessly to maintain the vessel's readiness.

Charybdis took a deep breath, feeling the ship's pulse synchronize with her own it was an extension of her self at this point.

She focused her thoughts, commanding the ship's systems with precision.

'Open a new rift,' she ordered in her mind. The ship responded instantly, its mechanisms whirring to life.

Outside, the air shimmered and distorted as a massive rift began to tear open.

The sheer size of the portal was awe-inspiring, as it became visible from the shores of the main continent.

Charybdis watched through her interface as the rift stabilized, creating a passage large enough for the colossal vessel.

' Engage thrusters,' she commanded.

The ship responded with a low rumble, and slowly, it began to move forward. The ship's dragon-like form cut through the air with a not so silent grace, heading towards the rift.

Charybdis's eyes never left the interface, her mind calculating every variable, every possible outcome.

She was in absolute control, almost a dream come true , and nothing would stand in her way.

She watched as the ship entered the rift, the portal closing behind them with a thunderous clap.

The battle had already been won.

As Charybdis appeared in the demon realm, she found herself in the territory of Rouge, the primordial red.

With Rouge having long departed to live as a demon lord, Charybdis scanned the entire realm with a bored look, counting every demon within it.

The central machine in her ship whirred to life, the sphere within it beginning to rotate.

This was the large-scale version of the spell she had used on Milim's crown, designed to absorb the souls of dying demons throughout the realm.

The cables attached to her began to glow yellow and black, signifying the different lineages of daemons, as the first attack led by Krodha and her pet elemental lord began.

A small grunt escaped her as the necklace embedded in her collarbone heated up, the once dull crystals glowing as they absorbed the souls of the demons.

Her eyes widened, and she grinned with ecstasy as she felt the souls of the primordial demons entering her being. The colors, save for red, lit up in the cables.

In the distance, a group of red lineage demons decided to attack her ship.

"She's vulnerable! Attack now!" one of them shouted, their voices rising in a frantic chorus. "For the honor of Rouge! I will stop her!"

Charybdis sighed, her voice echoing with irritation.

"Annoying bugs," she muttered, her eyes narrowing.

Activating another weapon, the dragon head of the ship transformed into a long blade reminiscent of storm border.

Light began to rotate in concentric circles, the sheer holy presence threatening to tear the demon realm apart.

A powerful whirring sound that grew louder and more intense with each passing moment.

The noise was a rhythmic, pulsating drone, a constant reminder of the immense power being unleashed.

The bands of light rotated with an electric crackle , adding a sharp, high-pitched undertone to the deep, resonant with thrum of the turbines of the engines.

The cacophony built to a deafening crescendo, shaking the ground beneath with onlt its sound.

The demons tried to flee and teleport, but none could escape as Charybdis's monotonic voice rang out, "Divine Departure."

The sound of an immense power build-up boomed through the air, followed by a deafening crack as holy light erupted in all directions.

The entire Rouge territory was evaporated in an instant.

Clouds gathered crackling with the very same holy lightning, causing rain to fall in the demon realm.

Meanwhile, in the territory of Blanc, the primordial white, Veldora was mercilessly beating Blanc.

Each of Veldora's punches echoed like thunderclaps.

Blanc, reeling from the onslaught, looked up just in time to see the blinding flash from Charybdis's attack.

Despair washed over her. "... How can we fight against such power?"

She thought, her heart sinking further as she felt the realm's balance tip irrevocably.

Back on the ship, Charybdis got up, the cables still attached to her back.

She walked to the edge and looked at the horizon.

Her smirk widened as she saw the scattered demons.

The falling rain, heavy and unyielding, mirrored the chaos she had wrought.

"Some crows are here" she called out to the fallen angels that she sensed trying to escape from the careless Veldora in the territory of Blanc.

One of the spheres floating beside her transformed into a bow without a string, and as she held it, an arrow made from the pure magicules of the reactors condensed, laced with holy magic.

As she drew the bow, a concentrated beam of light hummed with power. "Divine Arrow," she repeated, releasing the arrow.

The arrow whirred accross two territories silently but the rotating arrow began destabilizing as it neared its target.

And as soon as it reached the group of terrified fallen angels it lost its form completely and transformed into two spheres of light and an explosion of pure spiritons and Magicules.

But its mechanism wasn't that simple the Magicules and Spiritons turned into metaphysical waves as they interfered in Hyperbolic lines creatung fringes of destruction a sight of absolute beauty.

But the intense burning of the atmosphere caused the area to explode.

The sound of the explosion was belated, the light a blinding burst in a torrent of calm.

The arrow erasing a quarter of Blanc's territory.

Blanc's eyes widened in horror as the arrow obliterated her realm.

"Impossible... This power..." She trembled, the overwhelming force of Charybdis's attack breaking her will.

Veldora's laughter echoed across the realm, chilling and triumphant.

"Hahahahaha! That girl sure is over the top just like her father"

Charybdis stood, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction, as the rain continued to pour, the demon realm trembling under her overwhelming power.

The demon realm had no choice but to acknowledge the unstoppable force that Charybdis had become.
