Ascension of the Nephilim

494 Enter the Eldrich Circle

Nightwing listened as Pnevma revealed the coming era.

"Era of Middle? Is that just a title, or is it like a destined or fated event?"

"It's the era when Destiny and Fate will finally start waging war with each other. You could say that everything that has been happening between the two forces has been the two recruiting or stopping the other party from recruiting. But now, events will pit the two Challengers against each other. Those without alignment will become tools to force the fight between the two groups."

"I see. This means a lot of bad blood is bound to happen. The events that I've foreseen will truly happen."

"Yes. Destiny and Fate cannot coexist together. Your plan is risky, but if you succeed, you could deal a terrifying blow to the forces of the Eldrich. They are the main forces of Destiny here. And for some reason, I know Wisdom values the Planesworld as a very important planet. This was why you were sealed in this place, and why many of Fate's allies hid or died here."

"Then that changes things. I'll need to infiltrate the Eldrich armies deeper and masquerade myself as a powerful Fate-slaying cultivation... Do you have any suggestions?"

"You're asking... me for suggestions?"

"Is there a problem with asking for your suggestion?"

"Kyros. Nightwing. Or whoever you want to be called... I've seen your plans. You're definitely the son of Wisdom. So why the hell would I suggest it? Do you want me to embarrass myself?"

"Um... I just thought... since you know... you're a goddess..."

"I am not a daughter of Wisdom... I wouldn't know. In any case... stop bullying my little descendant. Besides, Mechiel or Scarlet's rage is building, and they are becoming angrier at the passing second. So it's going to be you who will suffer in the end. Besides, those two are great beauties. Zelah and Xermolipi... Their very core Code and Corruption lives on these two."

"I do not doubt that those two are top beauties. But they belong to 'Kyros'. I am Nightwing. I can sense the other souls in me. But I am my person in this trinity. Together, we are the Nephilim. But I am not Kyros. And I would not allow myself to be conquered by these women."

"Ah... I forgot you are a trinity. How annoying. I can't comprehend your thoughts. Just don't try to fight against yourself."

"I have no intention. But I will be Nightwing. Away from this Trinity."

"Whatever floats your boat. Say hi to Luigi for me. I really miss him."

"It must be true love if you really love him."

"It is. That goof is more charming than you give him credit for. But do remind him that he is married."

"I will."

"In any case... I bid you farewell, Nephilim. I'll be watching, but there is nothing much I can do until Krysta's family ascends to the Celestial realm. Till then, continue to fight to the End. And I like Kyros better. You should learn from his good deeds."

"If he's as smart as me, he knows I would be this cruel."

The vision faded, and Nightwing saw himself back in the room.

Krysta was also alerted.

It was as if the entire vision took less than a fraction of a second.

The power of the wind began to surge.

The breath of life had appeared and with [Supra-Physikos] began to appear as the bestowal of the goddess began.

Krysta felt lighter and could feel the wind. She was one with the wind and could sense it coming and going. And then she could sense the breath of life in his parents.

"Mom... Dad... You are the wind." Krysta whispered.

Suddenly, the eyes of the two opened!

Their souls resonated, and as they received the Sacrifice of Souls, the body of the two began to reform. It didn't have a deathly aura. It, in fact, harnessed a great amount of energy.

The wind blew and a hurricane formed around them. A large vortex of wind awakened.

"Impressive heritage... But it's lacking... Allow me. The breath of Solas will do well with the light of Soter." Nightwing called out the link to the Fortress. But this time, he summoned the light he sensed in his first connection. A light of healing and restoration was found within the Fortress.

The True Holy Healing that was in the Fortress had already improved. The Emberdons who had become Liches continued to improve on this power so that they could unlock the potential of everyone and clear out the meridians and other hindrances in cultivation.

A light appeared on Nightwing's arms, and he shot it out to the vortex of wind. The great light source spurred the awakening heritage of Krysta, Christopher, and their awakening parents.

And there, wings began to appear!

Ikarod sensed the great power and felt a vast inferiority.

"Transfiguration! I have read of that power...!" Ikarod froze. In the records of his family, there spoke a legend where one of their ancestors, now heralded as the greatest member of their family, was bestowed this power and wielded the great light.

Krysta and Christopher began to panic as they could sense a strange sensation at their back.

There was a pain, but it quickly passed.

The two didn't understand and glanced up.

"Mom! Dad!" Christopher cheered and began to tear up.

Angelian, Monica, and Sherah were also amazed at what they saw.

"But how?" Anglian couldn't understand.

"By the Undivine, I call you! By Mysterion, I enshroud you. By Soter, I bind you! By the power of Thanatou, I claim you mine!" Nightwing declared.

But his words did not use any of the Words of Power that he would use to call out the power of the universe. Instead, the power that Nightwing invoked was deception.

Those meaningless words echoed out and amazed those watching.

"Arise, my Unholy Angels!" Nightwing laughed as the light, and the wind expanded out and exploded.

BOOM!

Four winged beings stood.

Christopher just noticed that he now had wings.

Krysta's parents had their eyes opened, and they glanced at the room with a confused expressions.

"Mom! Dad!" Krysta cried as she flew to their embrace.

Christopher did the same.

"I have kept my promise. And you will now become my slave. You have no choice, for I have bound you!" Nightwing called out to Krysta.

Christopher was confused. But before he could react, he heard the voice of Luigi.

"Just play along, guys! Master still has an image to protect."

Christopher and Krysta nodded.

"Now... Go and talk with your resurrected parents. But as discussed, your souls are mine!" Nightwing laughed manically, and the four left to the side.

Nightwing watched as the group left. Krysta glanced at Nightwing and had such gratefulness.

"Where are we...?" The winged man with a stern and cautious expression asked.

"I'll explain later, father." Krysta led the group away.

Nightwing turned his attention to the gathered group.

"Greetings! I am-"

"I will serve the great lord!" Ikarod bowed immediately.

"Damn it! I wanted to do that!" Grandite Doragan cursed and made a huge leap, and landed in front.

THUD!

Grandite had his face planted down and was kowtowing before Nightwing. He made a full kowtow to show that he was more serious than Ikarod.

"Idiot, son! Bow before your ancestor!" Grandite shouted.

Barakan quickly followed, and he and the giants and cyclops all leaped and bowed before Nightwing.

"Oh? Why so excited to bow to me?" Nightwing laughed.

"You have the words of life... Where else can I turn?" Ikarod asked. The lost legacy of his people was here!

"You can bestow life! Even the Gigantes follow you! Why would I, a humble Golem, not serve you?" Grandite asked.

Everyone else began to approach and bow.

It was too awesome and inspiring. With the two Crowns bowing in servitude, what else could the rest do?

Nightwing smiled as his plans to recruit them worked perfectly.

"Do you all know why I have recruited you?" Nightwing asked.

"Please enlighten us, master," Ikarod asked.

"Whether you know it or not, you are strong but are unaffiliated. Some of you are even betrayed by the former secret masters you serve. I am targeting those secret masters of yours. The Eldrich have arrived in this Planesworld. The outcast race that was once driven away is here. And some of you know this. Many of you don't know you have indirectly served them. As for me... My goal is to enter Eldrich's circles. They plan to enslave this world. And I want a piece of that pie!" Nightwing laughed.
