48 The Night That The Sky Fell 2

"AH…AH…Ah ARGH!"

"My force sea! My pure force no!"

A devastating black sword light ripped directly through the two dark elf knight's suits of armor. Fenrir came cras.h.i.+ng down on them, tearing the first one straight in half in a mess of blue blood and spraying guts. The blade beam continued leaving a b.l.o.o.d.y gash halfway into the abdomen of the second knight, who landed with a thud on the ground.

The magic mirror on the second knight's hip skated away from him in the dirt. The dark elf knight hurried to struggle crawl to it, but he accidentally triggered the killing formation! Savage demonic sickles rose rapidly from the curse marks on the ground like giant shark fins, and sliced off the dark elf knight's outstretched arm, while another s.n.a.t.c.hed his head off his shoulders from the opposite direction.

Jodye Trill was stunned as he collapsed to his knees, then rapidly crawled backward while dragging the oh so heavy Fenrir. He paled as he looked at the glowing curse seals arranged on the ground covered in blue blood before they slowly faded away as if they weren't there.

"What in the b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l was that?" He had indeed summoned every once of his power to deliver that strike. But still, how f.u.c.king mighty was that? This Fenrir augmented his power dramatically! Not only that be he seemed to reach a new threshold in his body's transformation!

"You finally activated the combat seed, albeit unconsciously," Sylvester told Jodye via telepathy. "Not only that but you somehow used slaughter force with astral might as the base. Good show."

"Combat seeds? What is that?" asked Jodye Trill as he suddenly felt a soft hand wrap around his own as he melted into the darkness. He felt his body jerk then accelerate like on a go-cart.

"Remember the when we first met in this life? I said I would give you a gift. This gift was the combat seals of myself and my brother, I imprinted it on your force genesis early, forcing your body to enter the awakening state." Sylvester replied matter-of-factly.

"You…forced me into the awakening state? Couldn't that damage my potential!?" shouted Jodye, suddenly vexed.

"Yes," responded Sylvester indifferently, "This is why I took advantage of your weakened consciousness to slowly cook you with the Sky Fall flame, further reinforcing and refining your physique. You currently have the nascent Sky Fall Physique. Of course, to do this, I had to take control of the Main Soul."

"You can do that?"

"But of course. Who is it that gave you control in the first place?"

"This is true. Combat seed though?"

"The combat seed is the link between your force genesis and the essence of our soul flames. Through it, we may share with your strength as you grow. In exchange, you must facilitate our growth as well." Sylvester's ever cold and indifferent voice rang truth.

"So then I also have the dragon's combat seed?" discovered Jodye Trill. "I get it! Mother taught me that combat souls are able to augment our strength, and the level of augmentation depends on our realm and the grade of the combat soul."

"See? With just a bit of thinking would you always need to ask these useless questions?" quipped Sylvester. Jodye instantly cut his link with Sylvester in frustration. Nonetheless, he was a bit excited.

His origin energy was far stronger then what he had previously believed! Had he not broken through to the ninth level of the Wimpy Man realm, his physical strength wouldn't necessarily be better than his energy. Even though it didn't help much with his attack, it allowed him to resonate with Fenrir, which added extra sword force to his strike! Although he wasn't sure exactly how much power was in that strike, he knew it was well above his current level of strength.

Those knights must have been stronger than he initially thought!

Sweat appeared on Jodye's back as he realized how lucky he had gotten.

"It is good that you realize now how reckless you are," Sylvester said to himself in the Host s.p.a.ce, as he glanced at that huge Volos egg. "Maybe in the future, you will be more cautious."

Jodye Trill emerged from within the shadows in the tree hollow, which was rather dark in general. Even more so this late at night. However, Jodye was a Sage and could see in the dark to some extent. Not to mention that his right eye had a fair amount of concentrated divine source.

In the tree hollow, he could see his mother was currently unconscious. Xavier slowly extracted a silvery liquid into a magical black light surrounding his left palm and refined the poison inside of her into a black blob of energy that was floating above his other palm. The energy blob was the size of a fist and slowly increasing in ma.s.s.

"There are a bunch of tiny spiders inside of her blood, this could take forever if I have to do it alone. We can ask Sly to burn all these bugs in her bloodstream, that way they stop releasing venom. Then I can refine the remaining venom and get it out of her," Xavier's voice sounded anxious which kind of warmed Jodye's heart.

Xavier honestly treated him like they were brothers and this was his mother as well. Then again, upon further thought, Jodye realized this was just as much their life as it was his own. This behavior was rather appropriate in that case. Sylvester, on the other hand, was just an a.s.shole. However, Jodye didn't dislike him at all. In fact, it was quite the opposite.

"Sek Si, can you check the perimeter?" Thanks to Sylvester's earlier warnings, Jodye Trill was afraid to use his spiritual awareness right now if he had another option. He wasn't sure how easily it could be detected by others. Sek Si nodded, then disappeared into the dark. In the meantime, Jodye took out a mid-grade origin stone to restore some of his energy. A strange devouring power suddenly activated in his palm, and Jodye knew Sylvester was silently a.s.sisting him. His energy quickly replenished.

"Jo...dy..." a tiny voice like the softest bell chime reached Jodye's ear, and he whipped his head around to see his mother, whose eyes were barely open and dazed. As Jodye leaned in close to her, she silently slid a golden crystal ring onto the middle finger of his left hand, then used her remaining strength to mumble an incantation before Jodye could react.

Jodye was startled, "Mom no, relax! What are you doing?"

"I love you..so....much...ba...by..." as the incantation finished the golden ring emitted a bright light. When Jodye could see again, the ring had disappeared and in its place was tattoo spelling the name "Rah" in an ancient script Jodye was surprised he could read.

"Ma what...Ma? Mom?! Mother wake up!" When Jodye looked back up, his mother was unconscious again, and she didn't respond no matter how she called to her.

Three minutes later, Sek Si had returned, "Reporting to the young master, the enemy knows that Lady Isis has been removed and his subordinates killed! Apparently, he can sense when the killing formation is activated."

"However, elder Slaughter also noticed what happened when she sensed your aura and the Five Element Wolf pack started using terrifying attacks and spells! I underestimated them, their only a bit weak. They have successfully tied down the big dark elf and his forces. I estimate we should leave in the next five to ten minutes, or leaving will become impossible once the big baddie catches up," Sek Si looked Jodye dead in his ocean deep eyes without blinking as she spoke.

Jodye Trill pushed his other thoughts away and immediately summoned the [Cosmos Revolving Grimoire]. Although he wasn't able to recover a lot, it was enough to facilitate him summoning of a combat guardian. Sylvester was summoned in puppy form in a blaze of emerald black sky fall flames. Jodye was beginning to notice that Sylvester seemed to be capable of transforming his shape at will. The information in Jodye's mind updated itself.

[Name: Joseph Goldwolf]

[Age: 5 years, 5 months.]

[Status: 93% Health, 12:15 am]

[Guardian 1: Cosmos Devouring Sky Wolf]

'Compatibility rating: 51%.'

'Tier 1 abilities unlocked.'

'Summon time: 1 hour left.'

[Guardian 2: Mighty G.o.d Sky Jackal]

'Compatibility rating: 22%.'

'Tier 1 abilities unlocked.'

'Summon time: 2 hours left.'

Without speaking the little winged puppy floated over to lady Isis and spat out of a couple of swaths of flame, which he let engulf her before inhaling them again two minutes later. Sylvester landed on Xavier's head, and the black blob of energy begin to rapidly inflate like a balloon. Three minutes later, once the black blob of power was the size of two watermelons, Sylvester turned into a purple beam of light that flew into Jodye's glabella, returning to the host s.p.a.ce on his own initiative.

"Show off," Jodye grumbled. Notwithstanding this, he was truly grateful. Sylvester had single-handedly streamlined this process, then returned on his own to the host s.p.a.ce, which he discovered conserved summon time and energy. "Truly convenient. X, can you come back the same way too?"

"Don't know how," shrugged Xavier Tricko, completely nonchalant. Jodye simply didn't believe this puppy at all. Xavier's ears suddenly twitched a bit, before he continued, "Oh, so that it. Okay, watch this."

Xavier turned into a beam of crimson light that also shot into Jodye's glabella.

After Sylvester and Xavier Tricko returned to the host s.p.a.ce, Jodye Trill put his arm around his injured mother before turning to look at Sek Si, "Let's go, mate. Back to the Villa!"

— Trilleck Villa, Event Hall

Osiris Trilleck was dressed in the House battle armor, red and white caped armor with a black crescent moon crest on the shoulder. The cape represented a specific realm of strength, whereas the black crescent moon represented the House Lord, but they were both the same color.

Lord Osiris was standing with his hands behind his back on a balcony overlooking the entire Villa. His face was stoic and emotionless, and there was a formless pressure coming from his body. The two elders with him had to leave the balcony to re-enter the building due to the weight of this pressure. It was truly overbearing! They had felt like their bones were beginning to creak.

Ching-ling.

Suddenly, right before the two elder's eyes, a shadow walked out of the Lord's own shadow before a tall butler appeared. He had waist length dreads that were long and white and had little silver bells tied to the end. In fact, the elder's only noticed the man due to the presence of these bells.

"Urgent update from elder Fontaine, my lord," said Ke Si handing over a golden wolf head token to Osiris Trilleck.

House Lord Osiris injected his true essence into the token, and his stoic face changed to one of shock and worry, "How could this be...did he deploy a second team that even the first didn't expect? How can this plan be elaborate to such a degree?"

"My lord, at this rate we may lose our only chance to...hm? Oh!" Ke Si stopped mid-sentence let out a startled shout. He just noticed four shadows rapidly approaching his own Shadow Avatar. Two seconds later, Jodye Trill walked out of his father's shadow with his mother in his embrace. Lord Osiris was absolutely dumbfounded. Not 30 seconds after he received the report about a missing Isis, she was emerging from his own shadow, successfully rescued by his son.

"Dad help me, ma's hurt!" shouted Jodye as soon as he appeared. House Lord Osiris quickly sobered up and took his wife in his arms before vanis.h.i.+ng without even acknowledging his son. Jodye frowned and looked at the startled head butler, "Ke Si, please, I need you to take me to my parents!"

Ke Si glanced at this unfathomable youth with appreciation evident on his face. However, his face quickly changed to indifference, "Young master, you have done an excellent job. However, my current primary objective is to send you to safety. Previously, you disappeared. Now, we must leave."

"Ke Si... take me to my mother." Jodye Trill's voice was suddenly cold. Ke Si raised his brow as a dark energy mist begin to rise from his body.

"I apologize, master Joseph, but you will accompany me to safety. Come this way, young master. Sek Si, you will remain here," as Ke Si's words finished he sealed Sek Si's avatar within his own, and vanished from where he stood. The next instant he appeared behind Jodye and placed his hand on his shoulder.

Jodye was enraged as he swatted at Ke Si's gorilla gripped hand to no avail, before being instantly dragged into the darkness! All nine of Jodye's emptied astral points suddenly burst to life! He quickly turned his perception inward. To his absolute shock, his origin energy was mysteriously and rapidly being drawn into his spiritual meridians, and back out through his astral pathways.

His energy was converting directly into astral force!
