Chapter 5 - Unfinished business

Sunday, afternoon, Samuel Nygoz's house - "Hey Sam, what are we planning on doing after we go to afterlife?" Said Kyo- "I am not sure they will be welcoming to us but i am thinking they might listen to us if we explain everything, worth a shot i say" Said Nygoz - "Let's take another day for Ayame and Kyo to train, we got time until afterlife opens again" Said Naomi - "I think you two should come along too" Said Nygoz as he looked at Naomi and Lilith- "What, to train?" Said Lilith with confusion- "It would be a pleasure sir" Said NaomiNygoz nodded as he swung his hand and opened up a portal to his training grounds once again, he stepped in and said:- "Come on"- "I don't see why i have to do this but i am kinda bored so ok" Said Lilith as she stepped in the portalRest of them followed Lilith and all of them went in the portal- "Alright, for todays training, all of you will have to fight me, if any of you manage to land a hit on me you all pass, i don't care how you do it, do whatever it takes to hit me" Said Nygoz as he hut his hands in his pocketWithout a second hesitation Lilith instantly dodged towards Nygoz with insane speed, as she was sure that she was going to punch him, next thing she knew , Nygoz was standing behind her and had her grabbed by her armor collar, with a single swing he threw Lilith towards a giant rock, Lilith managed to activate her soul current and use it as defense at the last second- "Incredible speed, if Lilith didn't defend herself with soul current she would have been smashed into pieces" Said Naomi- "WATCH OUT" Yelled out KyoAfter hearing Kyo's scream Naomi suddenly looked next to her just to see Nygoz already close all of the distance between them and in next second they are both being grabbed by their necks, as Ayame saw the opportunity she instantly aimed her palm towards Nygoz and released soul current in an attempt to catch him by surprise but before the beam even reaches him he is already standing meters away from Ayame as he said:- "Good job, you released it"As Nygoz looked up at sky with a single eye he could see Lilith gliding down towards him with all of her soul current flooding her body, He instantly moved away but upon collision Lilith left a massive crater in the ground, hundreds of meters wide and the shockwave blew rocks and trees away as Ayame and Kyo could barley stand their ground- "I AM NOT DONE" Yelled out Lilith as she started charging more soul current in her hands- "Let's see" Said Nygoz with smileBefore Lilith's soul current could finish charging up, Naomi launched hers from behind but without even looking back Nygoz simply tilted his head to the side and dodged Naomi's beam and instead the beam went towards Lilith which ended up changing her aim and made her shoot her beam in the sky- "Watch out with your comrades now, how careless of you" Said NygozLilith didn't lose a second and instantly plunged towards Nygoz engaging in hand to hand combat with him, Nygoz wasn't attacking back but just blocking her attacks with a single finger but suddenly as Nygoz looked up a huge beam fell on him, as the smoke cleared Nygoz was standing right outside of the blast radius, hands in his pockets once again and smiling as he said:- "I see what you did there, you used Naomi's beam to pretend that you missed yours but in reality you launched it in air and kept me on the spot where it would fall, you almost had me"- "Watch this now" Said Lilith with a grin - "Very well, let's see" Said Nygoz - "Imaginary canvas: Hell's ruler incarnate" Yelled out Lilith as she made hand signsSuddenly Lilith ignited on some sort of red flames, as the flame cleared her appearance had completely changed, her shoulders still burning in the red flames, her whole body covered in the black armor this time, at the end of armor's arms there are huge claws, before second even passed Naomi also made hand signs as she chanted: "Imaginary Canvas: Final destination" Lilith Didn't waste a precious second of her technique as she instantly dashed towards Nygoz, leaving trail of fire behind her, as Nygoz looked towards Naomi he saw that she swung her arm in air, trying to punch nothing, as he was wondering what she was doing she suddenly appeared in front of him, punch progression still the same, millimeters away from Nygoz's Face, as he still outsped Naomi in such close range, Lilith took a huge Leap in the air and started gliding down towards Nygoz with her claws ready, as Nygoz was thinking that he could easily evade it, Lilith suddenly appeared in front of him, closing all the distance but once again Nygoz's reaction speed was fast enough to evade it, he smiled and said - "I see, your canvas is rather confusing Naomi, it allows you to not only teleport yourself but other people too"Lilith refusing to give Nygoz a break started swinging her claws around as she amplified them with her soul current, each slash easily evaded by Nygoz but the slashes travel a long distance, cutting any kind of obstacle in the way, Suddenly Naomi teleported Nygoz on random place once again, he observed the situation and was ready to defend the attack but suddenly he noticed little nails dropped on the ground, before he could think of any theories of why it would be there they suddenly extended with insane speed but Nygoz still managed to dodge it as he dashed backwards, Naomi suddenly teleported Lilith very high up, Lilith charged all of her soul current at once, ground started shaking from it's power, As Nygoz was getting ready to dodge the attack and looked down on the ground he was standing on, he suddenly noticed his feet were restrained by roots that have come up from the ground before he could look up again

Lilith had already closed her distance with the help of Naomi's power, upon collision a huge red explosion happened that lasted a few seconds, in the process destroying and blowing everything away , as the smoke cleared, Lilith's claws were stuck inside Nygoz's chest as he was\

 dripping blood from it as his face was clearly telling that he was in a lot of pain, two seconds later Lilith's canvas effects disappeared as she returned to her base form , as claws disappeared Nygoz fell on the ground , still bleeding and in pain, everyone gathered around him but before they could say a word they heard clapping sounds from behind, as they looked back, Nygoz was clapping his hands and slowly making his way towards them as he said:- "Bravo, your teamwork is truly amazing, i am impressed"They suddenly looked down where body should be but there was nothing as Lilith said with trembling voice:- "B-but how, i could've sworn i stabbed you"- "At last seconds, i used my sense manipulation and made you all think that you got me" Said Nygoz- "Was any of it real then?" Said Kyo - "Everything was real until the last seconds when Ayame restrained me with her technique, and i am assuming those nails were part of your tool manipulation" Said Nygoz - "That is right" Said Kyo as he nodded - "When did you two learn how to use techniques?" Asked Nygoz- "We trained all night" Said Ayame - "You guys are really strong, i didn't think i would be forced to use my soul current, let alone technique for even the littlest amount of time on the first training " Said Nygoz - "So, what are your techniques ladies?" Said Nygoz, referring to Naomi and Lilith- "My technique is merging, i can merge with my weapon or armor, this armor is specially made for my technique" Said Lilith- "My technique is position manipulation, allows me to manipulate positions of items and people, if the target is big or has a lot of soul current it's harder to move, you weren't using any soul current in the fight, that is why i was able to move you without trouble" Said Naomi, still blushing while looking at Nygoz- "Wait a minute, I've seen you two use moves that couldn't be part of those techniques"- "You probably saw them use racial techniques, each race has their unique technique that everyone of that race can use" Said Nygoz- "That is right" Said Lilith and Naomi at the same time- "I see, that is so cool, do we have it too? Said Ayame- "You have to have it from the second you are born ,you can't awaken it if you weren't born with it, considering you didn't even have soul current when you were born, you can't use racial techniques unfortunately " Said Nygoz- "Aw man, that suckssssss" Said Ayame with sad tone- "Well, let's rest for today, we have to defeat Sadan tomorrow" Said NygozAs they returned to earth, they had dinner and all of them went to sleep, at long last next day came as Naomi woke everybody up and said- "Guys, afterlife is about to open up in an hour , we must prepare" As everybody got up one after another and all of them got dressed and got ready, 30 minutes were left until the opening of heaven, Naomi concentrated soul current and created a door handle, as she grabbed it a whole door appeared that she later pulled and created the portal to the afterlife as she said:- "Alright, here we go"All of them stepped in at the same time, as soon as they entered, they were confronted by guards that aimed their weapons at them, Nygoz calmly said:- "We would like to speak to Maonz" Said Nygoz- "Who is Maonz" Asked Kyo with whisper- "It's name of angels leader, he is stronger than both Balthazar and Barthamus combined, it's natural angels were always stronger" Replied Naomi- "Who do you think you are, we are not going to let you" Said the guards- "I wasn't asking," Said Nygoz as he snapped his fingers Suddenly all of the angels in sight dropped on the ground motionless- "What happened to them?" Said Lilith- "I put them under my illusion, let's go and find Maonz" Said NygozIn a blink of an eye an angel appeared before them, his face all scarred, his eyes all yellow and glowing as he spoke:-"What do you want Samuel, have you chosen violence after all? you can not break our pact"- "Hey Maonz, i've come to talk, i will release all of your men from my illusion after you are done listening, i do not look forward for a fight" Said Nygoz- "Very well, i shall listen to what you have to say" Said Maonz- "Long story short, Sadan is on his way here, you have to help us" Said Nygoz- "What? Sadan? you mean, that Sadan?" Said Maonz in surprised face- "Yes, the same Sadan that murdered 4 gods and was banished at the edge of the universe, they will tell you the details, i just want to know if you are with us or not" Said Nygoz- "I doubt you would come here just to joke about something like that so it must be true then, very well i shall help you and your little team " Said Maonz- "One more thing, he is possessing Barthamus so i can not harm him because of the pact but he can, we need to play smart" Said NygozNygoz snapped his fingers once again as all of his soldiers woke up, Maonz yelled: - "EVERYBODY, GATHER AROUND AND LISTEN TO THIS YOUNG MAN"- "What why me?" Said Kyo - "Go ahead Kyo, tell them everything you got this" Said Ayame as she pushed him forwardsA few minutes of explanation later, everything was understood and everybody started preparing for Sadan's attack, minutes after minutes, hours after hours but Sadan didn't seem to show up- "Did you lie to us you damned brats?" Yelled out Maonz- "This is strange, why is he not showing up, he would have found an angel to get here, we even sent a few specifically to be found by him" Said AyameA few minutes later an angel came rushing in, out of breath as he barley spoke:- "SIR I HAVE BAD NEWS" - "What is it damn it" Said Maonz- "We've noticed Sadan but he is not coming here, he is killing all of the angels he finds and he got to Loom town and is massacring everybody there" Said the angel- "What is Loom town?" Said Kyo- "Biggest city of this era, all civilians are hiding there due to war, from all races and nobody is allowed to attack them" Said Naomi- "Is that bastard trying to get our attention so he can lure us there and he can come here himself and use the pond of great decimation?" Said Maonz- "He probably knows that he will not be able to handle me in his current state but nobody else can come even close to his power other than me and i can't be at two places at the same time, damn it what should we do" Said NygozAs everybody was thinking what to do, Lilith suddenly noticed something unusual about the pond of great decimation, it looked that it was slowly rising up, suddenly it clicked in Lilith's mind as she yelled out loud:- "FUCK FUCK, WHAT YEAR IS IT" - "What is it Lilith, what happened" Said Naomi- "WHAT YEAR IS IT JUST TELL ME" Said Lilith, as if she was in a huge hurry- "4,359,719 BC, why do you ask" Said Naomi- "OH NO, TODAY IS THE 100,000 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE LAST GREAT DECIMATION" Yelled out Lilith- "Wait, it can't be" Said Kyo as it also clicked in his mind- "SADAN IS NOT TRYING TO LURE US OUT OF AFTERLIFE SO HE CAN GET HERE AND USE THE POND OF GREAT DECIMATION, HE IS CAUSING NEW BIGGEST MASSACARE TO CREATE NEW POND AND HE IS PLANNING ON USING THAT ONE INSTEAD, WE FUCKED UP REAL BAD WE HAVE TO GO RIGHT NOW" Yelled out Lilith- "NAOMI, CAN'T YOU TELEPORT US THERE WITH YOUR IMAGINARY CANVAS" Said Maonz- "I can't i have to see in order to teleport to it" Said Naomi as she shook her head- "OPEN UP THE GATES RIGHT NOW, WE ARE GOING TO EARTH" Yelled out Maonz to his angel soldiers- "approximately how much time do we have?" Said Kyo- "a few minutes at best" Said Lilith - "We must hurry up" Said AyameAs the gates finally opened up, everybody jumped down but it still took 3 minutes, as they landed on earth Nygoz instantly grabbed all of them and dashed towards the loom town with light speed, even with Nygoz's speed they were still too late, as they arrived to the loom town, the ritual had already been started as Sadan stared at them with a demonic grin as he said:- "Too late, just like last time"- "WHY YOU" Yelled out Maonz as he dashed towards him but was thrown back with a flick of a finger from Sadan - "I am too strong for any of you in this body" Said Sadan as the grin didn't leave his face- "You know that you can not beat me, you might have started the ritual but we will still follow you and you will meet your doom" Said Nygoz- "I see memories of this body and i know about the pact, try to attack me and you will die" Said Sadan As the light of the ritual begun to grow brighter and brighter, all they could do was stand behind Nygoz so they wouldn't be killed by Sadan- "Look at all of you, so pathetic, unable to do anything , i always do whatever i desire and it will not change this time just because a few maggots decided to stand in my way" Said Sadan as he let out a demonic laugh Suddenly a giant cube appeared, only edges of it were visible, it contained Sadan and the pond of great decimation within, Sadan looked around as he yelled:- "NO NO NO, NOT THIS AGAIN, DAMN YOUUUUUUU" Before Sadan could say another word the cube was sealed up and Sadan's voice suddenly stopped, as everyone was still in surprise a figure walked from behind and put his hand on the cube as he chanted:-"Gate:Seal"- "Who are you" Said Nygoz- "I am sorry, i knew i should have gotten involved earlier" Said the figure- "Answer the damned question" Said Maonz- "My name is Azrael, God of earth"
