Novel Full Chapter 448 - Devouring The Bombs!
-----
Ervas and Veronica fused their souls to fight back against the soul-shattering explosion made by Hekaton's Familiar Spirit Bomb.
They felt as if their very souls were fragmenting and shattering into tiny pieces as if fading away into ashes, their very cores were breaking apart, and their entire beings were torn away.
But Veronica activated Perseverance.
By fusing, both souls were able to use the skills and powers of one another, as they were a single and whole being.
Veronica shielded Ervas physical body by sending him inside of the inner realm of her soul while leaving her giant armor to be disintegrated, which she didn't really mind much, she could always generate more, and even her mechanical equipment could be regenerated.
But for now, the only thing that mattered was to resist this power.
The two put everything they had, the Mana they had accumulated through these lives, and through the amazing power of Perseverance, they used the very energy source of their Souls, Mana, to replace Health Points, somehow defying even the laws of the world that dictated that they should be destroyed into pieces!
However, the two noticed that this bomb was stronger than the one Veronica resisted…
Hekaton nodded while glancing things through his Divine Realm.
"It was rather obvious that I would make it way stronger than the one before while maximizing performance… Although there is a limit of how strong I can make these bombs without the vessel dying from the sole descent, becoming unable to withstand the power…" he thought.
Ervas and Veronica noticed that the explosion was indeed way stronger than the one Veronica took headfirst, and it began to grow even bigger!
Suddenly, however, an inspiration ran through their combined minds!
Without even asking each other for the idea that both agreed upon, the two combined minds put their intent and powers into the depths of their combined souls, finding Ervas soul void resting within.
They began to infuse it with large quantities of Mana, moving the large, gaping void alongside the Void World that came from Ervas Soul, which simply fused with Veronica's soul.
The two moved the enormous gaping void over the surface of the several soul layers they had until suddenly, a gigantic empty black hole emerged right before the explosion of soul-shattering divine power!
FLASH!
As if it were not enough of an amazing plan, the empty black void began to absorb the entire explosion's power without any actual issue at all, sucking it all like a vicious black hole that absorbed all types of matter in seconds!
Hekaton glanced at this and almost screamed in surprise!
"WHAT?! …Hmph."
For a moment he slightly lost his temper, only to regain it and become once more as cold as ever.
"Almost… there…!" said Veronica.
"Let's… keep going…!" said Ervas.
Both combined split souls fused their powers to levels they had never done before, struggling more than any time!
They kept using the giant gaping black void as it absorbed everything released from the explosion, while they triturated the energy that entered through the void with soul break, eating it away!
Crack…. Crack!
CRASH!
The entire explosion was the shattered and eaten whole, as Ervas and Veronica were finally done with this, and instead of feeling utter pain, they felt utter joy as they were refilled with new energy to spare!
With this new energy, the two assimilated all this power and used it to enhance their souls and evolve them right away, gaining a new power!
However, they suddenly felt incredibly exhausted, as the void itself was beginning to damage them too!
Ervas and Veronica's minds quickly moved the void back to its original position, as it could be dangerous to be left alone, absorbing, and eating everything, it didn't even disregard their won soul when they moved it away from its designed place of existence. After all, this strange void was a law-defying power that Ervas developed through the otherworldly connection he had to other planes of existence with his Bloodline of Summoner Demons, alongside the combined power of his "flawed" Samsara System.
The fused soul slowly fell over the ground, tired, and slightly weakened, although whenever they could be able to assimilate the power they got completely, their souls should be capable of regaining their power and form back.
"Hahh… Phew, that was hellish, to be honest…" sighed Veronica.
"I really didn't expect that my void would try to eat us, but I guess I don't really have to move it away for too long from its original position or it might indeed begin to eat just anything… even us," sighed Ervas.
"We did a good job nonetheless… Ugh, those two idiots are finally gone, what a serenity~" said Veronica.
"But there's no time to relax," said Ervas.
"I know, I know!" said Veronica, as the two were already flying towards Lucas, who was getting completely overwhelmed, his last two Artificial God Spirits were the last thing he had, and they were already losing miserably…
Poof!
One of them suddenly exploded out of existence, as Lucas fell over his butt while trembling, after seeing Mason getting killed, he had lost all hope… and seemed to be slowly resigning to die a bitter death.
FLASH!
Ervas And Veronica's fused form, which resembled a gray specter with many arms, wings, and crimson eyes, reached Lucas as they glanced at him from above.
"Aahh… Y-You… are you Veronica?" he asked as his lips trembled fearfully.
"We are more than Veronica… We are different yet the same, we are together… And you… you are a meal…" they said, extending their claws towards him mercilessly!
"W-Wait! Wait! AGGH! DON'T…! UNGNGH…! NGNHGHGGAAGAGGGGHH!"
Lucas, who screamed in fear and pain, who was always acting timid and pitiful, and who was always kindhearted was being eaten alive, and the two split souls couldn't care less if his intentions were good from his heart or not, they simply wanted to not see his face ever again… nor his soul.
Hekaton smiled, however, as he made Lucas explode!
…Only for it to suddenly fail.
Ervas and Veronica easily crushed Lucas's body into a pulp and grabbed his soul within milliseconds, opening it and taking out the familiar Spirit who was stuck inside like a filthy leech, which they immediately threw inside their void without even doubting, completely omitting the explosion and leaving Hekaton dumbfounded!
"Nnngh…! AGGGGHHGGHH…!"
A second after, he felt the sharp pain of two Familiar Spirits being eaten as he passed out…
