Ascension of the Nephilim

411 Crown of the Victor

Kyros's form transformed as the power of the celestial elements shifted from empowering his entire body as an armor and shield into becoming a sword.

The power of the wind gathered on his Wings of the Light and Shade, and Kyros flew back with tremendous speed. The arrows chased him, and he got hit for half a second!

"[Pronto]!" The power of Time erupted, and Kyros's Celestial Swordsman improved even more.

The arrows of Bolerax were quickly approaching. It moved at a speed that even Crowns wouldn't be able to defend against! This was Bolerax's most dangerous spell, which would use so much entropy that it would harm him. But in his Brimstone Body, the entropy had very little effect!

But with Pronto and Kyros's already high dexterity, he could see the arrows that would have easily assassinated another Crown.

All of a sudden, Kyros stopped evading and suddenly pushed forward.

ZOOM!

The power of [Time Haste] activated and allowed Kyros to dive right inside the approaching arrows.

Kyros moved so fast that he zoomed right in, and the arrows missed!

Histerion and Bolerax charged forward as they saw the attack missed.

Histerion wielded his large ax to smite Kyros while Bolerax harnessed a massive gust of wind to slow Kyros's charge. The arrows that Bolerax shot had made a round turn and were now chasing after Kyros.

But Kyros now had time to complete his form and continued to call on the Celestial Code to tamper with his sword. Because of [Skotos Eis Phos], Kyros's sword was assuming the form of the Lifeblood Holy Fire Sword of Ten Thousand Justices. And using that as the center, the elements gathered around.

Kyros controlled the power of light, and with his hand that had the Dark Core, he bestowed darkness in the midst of light and used [Skotos Eis Phos] to stabilize it! The hilt of the sword became dark. Slowly, the darkness moved up, and the very middle of the blade was darkness, and around was the light and the elements.

"Let's try it! [Astral Slash]!"

SLASH!

Kyros made a 360-degree slash that caused the power of the star to pulse out!

The incoming arrows of Entropy and Wind could not resist the power of the star.

The slash was so strong that it challenged High Crowns and threw the two enemies back.

A massive magma shield appeared as Histerion held it out to receive the star.

"[Hell's Gates]!" Histerion shouted and activated a defensive spell to resist the attack.

Bolerax raised his staff and revealed his other hand that harnessed so much entropy that his hand was withering!

"[Withering Atmosphere Shield]!" Bolerax activated his defenses.

The attacks and the defensive skills met.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The attack sent the two flying back, but Kyros was not yet done. He could see that the battle on the other team was becoming even more dangerous, and Kyros harnessed the power of the star.

Histerion saw Kyros aim his sword towards the Kings of the Highland and the Netherworld and made the two quickly retreat.

"[Cute Kitty Cat Beam]!"

A rainbow beam with a cute kitty on its tail shot out. It was very weak and didn't even have any firepower.

NYAN!

The sound of the beam itself was cute.

Everyone stopped as they saw the beam.

Histerion was silent for several seconds.

"...Did I just successfully trick a Being that Was?" Kyros was amazed at himself. He could feel another power surging out of him.

"So this must be dad's Corruption, huh?" Kyros guessed.

"I... can't believe I fell for that! It seems that you raising your levels also allowed you to tap into some power inside of you. You've awakened the Corruption of Deception! Among several others..." Histerion frowned as the four beings stood by.

Kyros looked at the army and realized they were in no shape to fight anymore.

"Breveros! You did well! All of you, head to the Omega Kingdom! That is where the battle is! Before Lanthanou arrives, you all have to secure the Celestial Code! Lanthanou will definitely go after it!"

"But Lord Kyros!"

"Don't worry. Didn't you see me push them back? I can manage now. I'll keep them busy and kill these incarnations. You all fight where you can fight!" Kyros persuaded and even used [Oration] to order them.

"I... understand."

"If you do, hurry up before our battle begins. It's going to get so crazy! Move now, or you will be caught up in the battle!"

Breveros understood the urgency and ordered the army to retreat quickly. The retreat was not even organized as everyone began to flee for their very lives.

Histerion smiled.

"Impressive. You didn't even use his deception power to make them retreat. Does that mean you are confident in facing all four of us?"

"Confident? No. The four of you together should have a power that can challenge even those arrogant ones in my past life."

"Oh? Your first encounter?" Histerion closed his eyes to search and retrieve the record of that event.

"Ah. Your first encounter with a strong Highland warrior elite. He had Victor's Crown potential."

"That's right. Crowns are the big leagues and the biggest bottlenecks for cultivators in the Highlands. Reaching Victor's Crown would make one a hero! They are a step away from becoming those level seventy monsters, the Conquerors. And yet, I'm about to fight in a Victor's Crown-level battle! Man, it feels like a long time, but in reality, I've been only reborn for over a year in this new time! And most of it is spent here!" Kyros harnessed the power that he placed in his sword. But now, the energy was surging and covering Kyros.

"You took the Celestial Code and harnessed it to make Astra's Code! Impressive, Nephilim! I believe that you are the first Astral warrior in existence!"

"I hereby decree this job to be the Astral Sword Master!" Kyros declared, and the power he spoke invoked a reality.

Kyros's form stabilized as he constantly released the energy of the star.

"[Astral Sword Master]! Very good. This will be a fun match! Ah, too bad I didn't create Conquerors in this world! You tricked me! I estimated that Crown would be more than enough to kill you! Yet now, you can push my strongest warriors back and me... But I won't be easily defeated, Kyros!" Histerion laughed as the three assumed a formation.

The energy surged as the four moved in a formation.

"An energy formation circle?!" Kyros was amazed. This was knowledge that surpassed his own! An energy formation circle that was not 'drawn' was instantly formed among the four!

"You are birthing a star with your power. But let me use the mature version! Your young star has too little heat as it is just forming... But can it contend to the higher heat of brimstone?" Histerion laughed.

Kyros created stellar power that harnessed the Celestial elements and bound them in dark and light. But Histerion also did the same!

At the core of the formation were the dark powers of Necros Olethros that Lanthanou had bestowed. It was darkness constantly binding and devouring!

Around it was the power of brimstone that surged like lava. With the darkness holding it in, the brimstone became the core of the power.

Light shone as Elistre Protos Endoxus used his light to gather around the brimstone.

Bolerax raised his arm, and the power of entropy was added, and a thick amount of power caused the light of the energy to give off strong radiation!

"Let's see if your little star can compete with my raging sun!" Histerion laughed as he charged forward.

Kyros gathered all his energy and poured it into his sword. He created a powerful slash last time, but now, Kyros desired to erupt the energy on his attack.

Kyros swung down as it met the formation of the four enemies.

"[Supernova Slash]!"

BOOOOOOOOMMMM!
