Ascension of the Nephilim

Chapter 146 - An Anime-Inspired Strengthening



The appearance of the Blood Calamity had truly surprised Kyros. Once more, Destiny had made an ingenious move.

While Destiny couldn't work and Fate was no longer making it hard for Kyros and his family. But what Kyros failed to assess was the Blood Calamity herself.

They had the advantage of having no interference or secret workings between Fate and Destiny. It also meant that the callings and directions of both Fate and Destiny would not be sensed or seen through Fate Challenger.

In effect, Kyros's advantage in sensing and knowing what Fate and Destiny may or may not plan became his disadvantage.

Kyros realized that he was relying too much on Fate Challenger. Little did he realize that this Blood Calamity had used her own wisdom and crafted her own plan to trap Kyros.

Her alluring power was simply too much. Kyros had only acquired a small portion of the Charmed Fallen, and it wasn't enough to combat the powerful energy that the Blood Calamity had.

Kyros's mind was falling into the allure of the Blood Calamity. He was slowly falling into a monstrous lust. The faint whispers of desires were growing stronger and stronger. It was then that Kyros used his Soul Console to combat his desires. 

Kyros also began to harness the energy of his body to activate the fastest Pronto possible. 

As Kyros kept increasing in his levels, he was slowly able to merge the speed of his mind and move it in synch with his growing bodily dexterity. It came to the point that Kyros no longer needed to use Pronto as his body could already catch up to fast thinking. But now, Kyros was focusing on using the full power of Pronto on his thoughts alone.

He needed to combat the attack of the Blood Calamity, and he needed to resolve it fast.

And so, Kyros was harnessing his memories and replaying it all at an incredible speed.

Calaminus sensed it and realized that Kyros was doing it. This fabled ability allowed various fighters and warriors to break through their limits and find strength against impossible odds.

The Pronto ability was being pushed to the limits. Even Calaminus was caught in Kyros's own time. It was as if time had stopped, but Calaminus knew that this was actually because Kyros was thinking so fast.

"This is it! This is the powerful ability that a vast number of mighty warriors have! Ninja leaders, pirates, golden warriors, samurais, mages, and so many more! The illogical and untimely flashbacks that make no sense, because you normally wouldn't think about the past and have a trip down memory lane when facing an enemy that could kill you and destroy the world, is actually happening to Kyros!" Calaminus exclaimed.

The power of Pronto was breaking through its limits. The power of the Mysterion, the Fanged Fallen, and the Charmed Fallen was all gathering to breach the De-Spacito seal.

"Hmm? This looks prepared. Has Kyros been constantly saving new powers in case something like this happens?" Calaminus realized it. The power of the three divinities was attacking the seal.

"I see! Kyros assumed that Destiny can still figure out some of his ability. And so, Kyros is actually holding back and not allowing himself to get stronger, so Destiny can't find out about it! Destiny can't know something that Kyros doesn't have. And Kyros is now breaching the seal. But how? Those three divinities can't take down a curse caused by those god and devil seals..." Calaminus thought.

And then, the force energy that Kyros had appeared.

Calaminus realized what it was.

"Of course! Hyperion's Code! He will use that to breach the seal!" Calaminus exclaimed.

As Calaminus guessed, Kyros was gathering all that power and attacking the speed disrupting curse plaguing Kyros.

BOOM!

Kyros's soul trembled as the power of the three divinity and the power of True Cut appeared.

The curse mark of De-Spacito shattered within Kyros's soul.

---

De-Spacito curse removed.

Time/Space Mage Job acquired.

Divinity of the Amazing Calaminus Time Continuum Warlock of the Infinite Worlds Randy Orton Ice Cold 3000 awakened.

---

"..." Calaminus's soul turned red in embarrassment.

"Oh right. One of my incarnations was still young and had the bad habit of mashing the cool things he liked as his user name. Ugh. I forgot to change my Divinity title. I have to change it!" Calaminus hurried.

Calaminus accessed the Soul Console of Kyros and changed the name before Kyros could notice the embarrassing Divinity Title.

Kyros kept on looking at the many memories in his past life.

He countered the rising desires with the many heart-wrenching memories of his past and recalled the last moments of the people he loved.

Mechiel's beautiful face emerged as she was dying.

"Kyros. The reason I saved you... it actually has a very simple... truth behind it. I love you." Mechiel smiled.

That simple smiled was engraved in Kyros's heart.

He remembered the first memories of his past interactions with Mechiel. At that time, he didn't know who she was.

Kyros cared deeply for this slave, but circumstances had prevented him from looking for the young slave.

"Young Maser Kyros. I'm sorry..." The young maid knelt down in fear. She had seen how impatient and wild this young master was. She was about to set the drinks for Kyros but stumbled down and spilled the drink.

Kyros glared at her.

But Kyros recalled the words of her mother and took deep breathes.

"You are too nervous when you enter this room because I am a wild beast. It's alright." Kyros answered as he controlled the building rage in his heart.

The young Mechiel was stunned.

"Tha-Thank you, Lord Kyros." Mechiel bowed.

Many other memories flashed on.

Kyros stood and watched the open fields as he held the sword down. He rested upon the shade of the tree to avoid the heat of the sun.

No one approached Kyros. Even the knights and other servants dared not accompany the wild man as he held the sword.

The young slave approached anyway.

"Lord Kyros. Yo-your drinks." She offered as she trembled.

"The other slaves and knights told you not to approach. Why did you?" Kyros asked.

"... It is my duty."

"I have told everyone to leave me alone. Yet you did so. Your duty would have been fulfilled by staying there with them. Yet you prepared this by your own to give it to me. Why?" Kyros asked again.

The young Mechiel was surprised.

"It seems Lord Kyros's ears are quite... strong. Was that why you attacked some of the knights and servants? You heard their words."

"..." Kyros was silent.

"I am not obliged to answer your question. But you haven't answered mine."

"... I was worried, Lord Kyros. You have been training in the heat of the sun and have no cool drink nearby." Mechiel bowed.

Kyros remained silent.

The young Mechiel placed the tray she held down next to Kyros and began to walk away.

"Wait." Kyros called out.

"Ye-yes Lord Kyros?"

"Stay here. Your presence seems to calm me down." Kyros ordered and closed his eyes to meditate on what he learned.

Mechiel was amazed and could not help but blush. She sat down nearby.

"Move closer. Sit where the shade covers you." Kyros spoke without opening his eyes.

Mechiel nodded and hurriedly sat closer to Kyros.

The memories made Kyros smile.

"Even then, it was you that always brought me to peace. And now in this life, it's still you." Kyros sighed as he could feel the lustful desires disappeared.

"He did it! The crazy son of a Fallen, did it!" Calaminus rejoiced as he could see Kyros resisting the magic of the Succubus.

Clarity returned, and Kyros glanced at the Blood Calamity.

"Quit bluffing. Let's fight." Kyros drew his weapons, and the seductive smile of the Blood Calamity vanished.
