Chapter 167 – Bell Of Blasphemy

The scene was one all would live to remember and tell. This news was going to shake the world, and their impact was stronger than anyone dared to imagine, even the culprit himself.

As the darkness appeared into the world, the crowd realized that a dark being had appeared. These beings were known as the world\'s bane, and all races despised them. The reason was simple. These beings were not a part of this world.

"You dare deceive me?" the wrathful cry shook the world stronger than Vyxas\'s shout, and the person in question was none other than Lilith, whom Nikolai had brought to this ritual.

The darkness made way for him to run through, and it was all the darkness he could create. However, none of the demigods were holy, and his darkness was the bane of elements.

Of course, there was a limit for how much it could withstand before breaking. Lilith chased after him like a hurricane that swallowed everything into it. The divine arms also attacked him, but his darkness brought him momentary protection.

"…boom! boom!"

Explosive noises rang around Nikolai as he sprinted forward as if his life depended on it, and it did. The arms were one thing, but if Lilith managed to land a strike… death it is.

Nikolai ran across the sky while also avoiding the arms. The divinity concentrated into this world made it impossible for him to enter his stealth because his darkness was still too weak to sustain the dark dimension.

"I need to reach the gates," he muttered as his eyes glanced backward. However, there was no way that he was going to outrun Lilith. The only reason he managed to reach half the distance toward the gates was his head start while she was busy fighting the Fairy Queen.

"Are you saying that he is not your generals?" the Fairy Queen also sounded wrathful because of Nikolai, who also deceived her into attacking Lilith.

Nikolai wanted Lilith to attack the divine descent to weaken it, and that was the only reason he could survive against the arms that attacked him from everywhere. However, Vyxas withdrew from this world after the offering failed, which was why Lilith felt deceived.

The offering should have happened when the Holy Grail was detonated, but Nikolai used his darkness to destroy the enchantment. Then, Lucas protected the princess who was about to be killed. The Fairy Queen was another pawn that he used, but it did not go as expected.

\'At least Lucas is alive,\' Nikolai thought as he ran across the sky. His eyes glanced downward, and he could see Lucas standing with Maria\'s help. \'Do not die easily, bastard.\'

Lucas moved his lips with a terrified face. Nikolai realized that he was warning him, and he looked upward to see Lilith descending toward the arm.

BOOM!

"AAAAAAH!" the arms screamed as Lilith descended, breaking the divine arm and bending it. "Mortal…!" the god\'s voice was wrathful, but Lilith did not care. The arm crashed into the ceiling, and the ritual ground crumbled.

Her eyes snapped open as she looked around, but the darkness was fleeting, and there was no one here. Then, after a few seconds, a figure jumped out of her shadow and stood in front of her.

"Hello there, Miss Aya, who is not Miss Aya," smiled Nikolai mockingly. "I did not lie to you, did I? The ritual happened, but you were too weak to seize this chance."

"You bastard," Lilith stomped on the ground and bolted forward. "Greet death for me," she said with a crazed grin before striking with her dagger. Nikolai smiled as he lifted both hands to block the attack. "Foolish!"

Nikolai saw the dagger tear space apart as it radiated incredible power. However, he was not afraid. Nikolai has managed to withstand one of her attacks in the vision, and he could do it again.

<ABSOULTE SHIELD>

The barrier appeared one centimeter around his body, covering it all like another skin. The dagger struck his palms, but the weapon did not break his skin.

"Impossible…!" her expression showed incomprehension, and it was a delight for Nikolai\'s eyes. Then, as she pushed against him, Nikolai grinned at her.

"I will kill you one day, Lilith," his eyes showed his unwavering resolve for revenge. "I will cut your limbs and drink your blood. But, wait for me," as he said so, Nikolai jumped, and her attack made him fly away toward the Celestial Gates.

[-7829 DMG!]

Her attack was enough to send him toward death with not even a single cell left. However, his Absolute Shield did not betray him. Nikolai watched as the Gates of Celestia were in front of him, and he started following the tablet\'s instructions.

"Open for me, Abyss," his darkness exploded in front of him. "This is my offering to the fallen gods, so let me in!"

The runes inscribed within his sea of consciousness left his body and merged with his power before creating a giant arrow. The arrow flew to strike the celestial gates, and a crack made the world tremble.

"I will never let you run away!"

A shout came from behind him, and Nikolai could feel that Lilith threw her dagger toward him. His teeth gnashed against each other as the darkness and the runes dug through the gates.

He obtained these runes from reading the tablet aloud after Taly deciphered it. They were the ones forced upon sinners of the past to send them into the Abyss, where the darkness was overflowing.

The darkness was his home, so Nikolai did not fear it. As the dagger flying toward him was about to strike his back, the Gates of Celestia were broken.

DING!

A bell rang that shook the world. It reached the furthest ends known to man, awakening ancient creatures from their slumber. This was the Bell of Blasphemy, only ringing when someone dared to go against Celestia.

DING!

From the highest of heavens and through the infinite skies to reach the deepest of valleys, the bell rang to announce heavens\' wrath.

DING!

The bell rang again as Nikolai disappeared from the world of mortals. The dagger struck the gate and fell toward the ground, creating a giant crater as it landed.

"That dark being… succeeded…" the priest muttered on the ground with horror. "The monster has sneaked into Celestia… the Bell of Blasphemy rang three times… this is bad… this is bad… heavens show mercy…" the priest fell to his knees as he started crying."

"What does this mean, priest?" asked the Bestial Prince who stood beside him. "What was that bell?"

"Your highness," the priest turned to the prince as if he was his final hope. "You have to report this to his majesty. This cannot do, this cannot do. The heavens are wrathful. We need to prepare or…" the man began shaking.

"Talk sense, priest," frowned the Bestial Prince. "What is going to happen?"

"We are doomed. We are doomed. We are doomed," the priest kept repeating as he fell to his knees, going back and forth. Then, the Bestial Prince realized that the man had gone insane.

The crowd did not know what this event meant, but the world will soon learn of this. Celestia was wrathful against the darkness, and the hunt will commence again. However, this was not the beginning of a slaughter.

"The bell," muttered Lilith as the Fairy Queen landed beside her. "I cannot believe that it happened this quickly. We should have had more time to prepare…"

"What is going on, whore?" asked the Fairy Queen. "Have you finally lost your mind?"

"This is not the time," said Lilith before turning toward her rival. "You need to go back to your domain, now. They are awakening."

"Are you talking about…" froze the Fairy Queen. "That is nothing but a legend. The darkness has been banished for thousands of years."

"When there is light, there is always darkness," said Lilith as she walked toward the dagger and picked it up, looking at her reflection on its surface. "That dark being… I was blind to miss it," she gritted her teeth.

"I was a fool for being deceived, too," frowned the Queen. "However, it told us nothing but the truth. That was the reason we believed him. It used our weaknesses against us. The only question is… how did it know?"

"I am unaware myself," Lilith answered with a sigh. "Thou desire to fight against mine?"

  "Haha," laughed the queen. "Your words are slipping back into the ancient tongue. Tell me, whore. Do you know who that dark being is, and how did it know all of this?"

"I don\'t know," Lilith corrected her speech and shook her head. "I thought it was an interesting seedling, but it turned out to be a poison that is going to kill this world. This creature knows of secrets that none should know."

"Then, what is going to happen now?"

"Are you an idiot?" frowned Lilith. "We need to prepare before they arrive.. Otherwise," she paused, "this world will be destroyed."
