21岁的胜夏的偶像秘密日记

Chapter 296 - Words Of Seduction



The power of Codes and Corruption could not easily be passed on. Gods and Fallen have to give this power and claim the practitioners as their own to wield power. Those who are actual descendants can easily wield power. Those who aren\'t descendants endowed with power have to take on the name of God or Fallen.

The name was not just for show. The title bestowed on the person was the god or fallen, imbuing the ability to make the known universe submit to it and treat the named individual as part of the power of the great god.

Kyros had no name from Daradiel or is a direct descendant. And yet his memories guided by his wisdom allowed such power.

Calaminus was intently observing the miracle before him. Even if Kyros had the experience, trying to wield and call on the power of the elements directly, and even by using the allure of the Charmed Fallen, could not work. But then realization struck Calaminus. Kyros had one power that he had been using several times, which aided in his ability to do quick actions. Even the half-light, a half-dark form that Kyros has shown could be explained through this.

Calaminus connected with Kyros and accessed the Soul Console.

And as he did, he saw a long list of programmed codes that dictated how each Element would work and how Kyros\'s body would respond.

The three Souls of Kyros were working together. Earth was being wielded by Kyros\'s Soul. As a man of neutral state and born from the dust of the earth, this soul was the best to wield the Earth energy.

The Ancient Source harnessed the power of Fire as the Ancient God\'s were primarily creatures of Light. In the elemental theories, Fire was closest to Light and was the best source to wield it.

The Fallen Source wielded the wind. Time and Space magic was closely associated with the power of Dark and the Fallen. As Kyros had both the power of Kyriachos and the power of Time, he focused both energies on his Fallen Source to direct the commands of gathering wind. Dark, Time, and Space were elements closest to the darkness, and it could even be said that these two powers were related.

Kyros began to pant as the powers disappeared.

"Still lacking. But I know what to do." Kyros then began to open the Soul Console and slowly updated the codes.

"The fragment?! This is really how you did it? Each of your souls was acting on it?!"

"Yeah. All I had to do was a pump in Force and Magic. If only I have the power of the soul. I would be able to wield another. This is hard!"

"Hard?! You call harnessing the power of a god whose Code you don\'t have hard?! That\'s impossible!"

"I have to. The Necromancer will surely give us a big surprise. What happened to the Okto-Khefali of this place? It\'s definitely with the Necromancer. Imagine an undead Okto-Khefali appearing in this place!"

"Right! The Okto-Khefali! I forgot about that!"

"We don\'t know if it\'s an ally of the Necromancer or if the Okto-Khefali is the enemy. I expected it to appear here, but it didn\'t appear yet. So either it\'s still sealed in this time, or if it\'s already allied or has become an undead summon of that Necromancer. In any case, I need to gain back as much power as I can, and the fighting style of a Celestial paladin has had a lifetime of practice!"

"Then you should study your dad\'s discoveries. He is now a Knight Templar, after all. A Celestial Knight Templar sounds awesome!"

"That\'s the third priority." Kyros answered.

"Third? What\'s second?"

It was then that Dyne noticed several people looking at him.

"Erm... What?"

"How?" Demerus asked.

"Remember Astra\'s power? She invoked the power of the Celestial Code. I\'m sort of acquainted with the God who has that power. So I took inspiration and used the Corruption of the Charmed Fallen to erm... do something. You already read up on the theories of Words of Power, right? My words won\'t have power, but by calling out to the Elements and using the Charmed Fallen, I can do it."

"But that\'s impossible! If it were that easy to command the elements, the Charmed Fallen could have done this! How can you hear the voice of the elements?!" The Blood Calamity exploded in anger.

Kyros glanced at the Blood Calamity.

"Don\'t get mad. You\'re cute when you smile." Kyros answered.

The Blood Calamity\'s red-angered face turned into a blush.

"That- That\'s- You! I hate you!"

"Tsundere..." Martha sighed at the side.

Scarlet continued to pretend to concentrate on wielding the elements, but her hand was trembling.

Avary sighed as he saw Scarlet.

Reptilia also shook her head.

"I could teach you." Kyros gave a meaningful smile.

"Wha-what?!"

"The power to wield this Code. For a being that has transcended Celestial ranks and is close to cultivating to a god, I bet learning how to do what I did can help you grow stronger."

"Why are you helping someone like me?" The Blood Calamity frowned.

"I\'m not helping you. I\'m helping Mechiel. You and her soul are tied together, after all. Your strength becomes her strength. It\'s easier now that she has your soul. Your call and your power can spill over, and she might just be able to call upon the power of the Charmed Fallen through you." Kyros smiled.

"Hmph! You\'re a fool for thinking this. And let me guess... you want me to teach you how to channel the power of the Charmed Fallen?"

"Yes. This also is important. Since if I want to practice that, I\'d have to make myself vulnerable to your spell. Aren\'t you tired of being our captive?"

"Your arrogance will be the end of you! Fine! I accept!"

"Good!" Kyros laughed as he motioned to make the Blood Calamity draw closer.

Mechiel moved, and Kyros brought them to the middle of the Temple where Kyros was once sealed.

"Everyone else, go back to your training. Calaminus. Be sure to guide everyone."

"Alright. You kids be careful." Calaminus answered.

"What do we do?" Mechiel asked.

Kyros sat down in a crossed leg position.

"Sit down and hold my hand. I need to show you what power I draw out to call the elements. And I\'m assuming the Blood Calamity has Dark Link. It would be easier if she could link directly to me so I would be communicating directly to your soul."

"Al-alright." Mechiel sat down with a shy expression, and the two were facing each other.

"Let\'s test it. Hold on to my hand and see if you can hear my words." Kyros instructed.

Mechiel nodded, and both closed their eyes.

It was as if they were standing in a dark world. Yet even though there seemed to be no light, the two could see each other.

"Where is this? This is like a dream!" Mechiel was amazed.

"Oh? It looks like the Blood Calamity wants a home-court advantage." Kyros laughed as he recognized the place.

"What?! Then we better stop now, Lord Kyros! This place is too-"

"I\'m glad Fate led me to you, Mechiel." Kyros called out.

"I..." Mechiel\'s blush turned brighter. But then her expression changed.

"Lord Kyros. I feel that Fate is telling me that we will... end up fighting. But, even now, the Blood Calamity is-" She trembled as she spoke these words.

"We will. The binding of souls between you and the Blood Calamity makes you a person of Destiny."

"Then... We are enemies?"

"Yes. But don\'t worry. Something so trivial as Destiny won\'t keep us apart. The journey will be difficult, and it often seems that us fighting and killing each other would be inevitable. But I won\'t let you go. I promise you."

Mechiel trembled as she heard those words.

"Why... do you show me such favor?" Mechiel asked.

"I can\'t answer that. But it involves a lot of gods." Kyros chuckled.

"Are we really like your mother and father?"

"Something like that. Two souls destined for each other but cursed to be apart. Shall we fight the chains that guide our future together and break free from them?"

"Yes!" Mechiel smiled.

"Try to be in control and fight back when the Blood Calamity tries to act. You and her share the same soul. She\'s just a parasite. So don\'t let her have her way."

"Yes, Lor-"

"And no Lord Kyros for you. You best get used to calling me by my name, Mechiel."

"I... It doesn\'t seem right. You are strong, powerful, and is the leader of this group. I dare not call the Nephilim casually."

"It\'s a bit too early to call me husband." Kyros chuckled again.

"That\'s not what I-!" Mechiel turned red.

"Then call me Kyros. But I guess it does feel weird. We just met, after all. So I guess I\'ll wait for the time when our closeness and familiarity allows you to drop this silly courtesy."

"Your words of seduction won\'t work on me." A dark shadow slowly took shape behind Mechiel, and it transformed into the figure of a woman of great beauty. What was amazing was that the woman looked like an adult Mechiel.

Kyros froze as he saw it. It was the same appearance that Mechiel had in their past life.

The Blood Calamity saw that her power worked, and she smiled a sinister smile.

"Stop!" Mechiel shouted.

The Blood Calamity stopped as she felt her body quiver.

"You!"

"You\'re in my soul! So behave!"

"What...?! This place...! Its links us both!" The Blood Calamity realized what had happened, and Kyros regained control. It was then that the Blood Calamity realized that the words of seduction she believed Kyros to say weren\'t meant for her but to grant Mechiel more power to resist.

"That was scary. Thanks, Mechiel! Anyway, Blood Calamity. The best way to learn the Celestial Code, is to experience it. I want you to do the calling, and I will hear its voice.. Can you help me?" Kyros asked, ignoring the situation that nearly led to his death.
