Chapter 9 - Chapitre 9

Abellio reached the top floor and saw a large sliding door in front of him and opened it. Inside the room, a young woman in white priestess garments was placed on a round structure on the floor in a prayer position.

He moves confidently through the dark room until he is right above her.

"Are you the boss?"

"... No"

"Are you sure because you literally look like a final boss."

"You!" You are Abellio, aren't you?

"... No" *smile*

Vati: "stupid, I'm stupid, why did I rush like an idiot." I could have died so stupidly. Pri-pri will surely make fun of me when I get home.

Haaa, it hurts, I can't even get up, I'll have to crawl.

*Tremblement*

What's happening again?

OH shit!

Debris from doors and walls tumbled down the stairs he was on, and he had to roll to the other side to dodge it, which caused him pain.

The room and its roof completely exploded, leaving Abellio and the young woman exposed to the open air. He dusted himself off and stood up straight. When the dust from the environment settled, he was able to observe what had caused the explosion.

A giant ghostly hand with long, sharp nails.

Abellio: "I understand now that you are not the boss."

You are too weak for that.

The hand extended blood vessels from its stump that protect the priestess, then rushed towards Abellio at full speed.

He observed the thing and thought.

It's a manifestation of a part of a psychic mind, but there is no consciousness inside. The power is entirely automatic, which means that everything in this invocation is limited. Its power and range are absolutely not bothersome to me, but I will still play it safe to reach this lady in her cage.

Abellio takes an apple out of his satchel and concentrates his psychic energy into it, which blackens it, then he crushes the black apple in his hands.

"Glutton comes to me."

After this ritual, Abellio's power manifests in the form of a great creature.

The wolverine is one of the seven creatures shaped by Abellio's psychic ability.

She looks like a giant leech with blood-red skin and inside her leech mouth, an enormous head of a rabid wolverine equipped with sharp teeth.

To summon him, he must have eaten a few hours earlier, and the glutton will only attack enemies who have eaten at the same time or shortly after Abellio.

The wolverine possesses great strength and combat resistance, it can almost crush anything with its jaw and can dig holes in just about any material.

Abellio: "digging"

The hand closed into emptiness and a hole appeared beneath her.

"Where has he gone?" wondered the priestess, as the hand, surprised by this unpredictable event, came to a halt.

*Crack*

"Huh?"

Cracks appear under the priestess.

*Tremblement*

The wolverine emerges from the ground and bites her in the abdomen while returning to the lower floor.

Vati, who had managed to climb up by stepping through the debris, had to face the hand that had detected and categorized him as an enemy.

He calmly leaned against the remains of a wall, while the hand rushed towards him, just a few meters away from touching him.

"OROMI!"

The white sword pierced her, and a sensation of fatigue overtook Vati.

A minute of trance had passed, and Vati woke up.

Mmmh, this experience that I have absorbed is really interesting and useful. I understand better how to deploy my psychic energy into my blood vessels.

Saying this, Vati focused, and his painful gunshot wound closed up thanks to his blood that had coagulated and his blood vessels that had strengthened.

He felt like a new man every time he overcame a problem and became stronger.

*Breathe*

He enjoys that feeling of pride and being fully alive, then gets up to see what his teacher was doing.

He approached the hole where Abellio was and witnessed a scene that would be etched in his memory forever.

Abellio: "swallow"

Priestess: "kiiiaaa!"

Glutton: "haaa glup glup glup"

Abellio: "Spit it out... Spit it out, glutton!

Glutton: "urp"

Abellio: "Do you want to continue?"

Priestess: "...."

Abellio: "… Glutton"

Glutton: "hiiiii"

Priestess: "No, wait, okay!"

Abellio: "Be a glutton GO"

Glutton: "haaaaa glup glup…"

Priestess: *vomiting* "You will all pay for it when your time comes, the great luminous will annihilate you, it will destroy you, it will obliterate you, it will..."

While the priestess insulted them and threatened them with all sorts of tortures for humiliating her and destroying their master's headquarters, Vati rummaged through Abellio's satchel to retrieve a healing apple seed.

Abellio: "blablabla where is the head of the place?"

Priestess: "I will never give information to a sinner, especially if it would harm mahaaaa."

Abellio's expression changed drastically, and as he crushed the priestess's ankle, his eyes turned cold, fixating on his victim.

Abellio: "I don't know if you've noticed, but we're in an interrogation." We had a lot of fun at the beginning and were a bit silly, but now let's be more serious, alright, young lady.

He said, pressing so hard this time that the priestess shed a tear.

Fear and dread seized her, yet a faint glimmer of hope made her maintain a twisted smile as she imagined her divine master annihilating everything that this wretch before her had built.

Priestess: "Hehe, it's already too late for you, A.B.E.L.L.I.O." At this hour, the great luminous must be in your headquarters without protection to conquer it. I was only instructed to create a diversion. I would have liked to do more, but I trust my boss and know that it's already over for you!

In a small, well-equipped apartment that also serves as a headquarters, a young blond man steps out of the shower.

*Dring*

Pri-pri: "Oh, they are already back?"

He wraps a towel around his waist and goes to open the door, but when he opens it, no one is there.

Pri-pri: "Is anyone there?"

Pri-pri walked down the hallway to the stairs and saw a man wearing a scarf looking at him.

"Are you a henchman of Abellio?"

Pri-pri: "hmmm... yes, you could say that"

He said with a thoughtful look.

"ok"

Before even a second had passed, half of the head and face of

Pri-pri was pulverized
