Will of chaos

The next day I woke up to a Zombie biting my leg, its teeth were too weak to scratch my skin, but its drool was still disgusting.

I just grabbed his head, swung his body around, and with all my strength threw him out of town.

“What a bad way to start a day…” (I)

“Nix, Nix!” (I)

“5 more minutes… Zzzzz… Zzzzz….” (Nix)

“Wake up or you’ll be without Caryna’s food for a week.” (I)

“Master without a heart, I’m already awake, I’m awake, what do you want to interrupt a woman’s sleep so early??” (Nix)

“Why am I in the middle of these ruins and have to be woken up by an Undead trying to satisfy my hunger?” (I)

“I don’t know, after a sleepless night due to you and the girls making so much noise, I got so comfortable in this shade that I fell asleep without realizing it as you walked.” (Nix)

I didn’t want to argue with anyone in the morning, so I spread my Dragon Wings upward, from up there I was able to locate myself and head back to the tower.

As I was flying I noticed that those walking near the Tower were almost all women, I saw almost no men, and those I did see were in very bad shape.

When I landed at the door of the Tower I found Sapphire who was talking to a female Ghoul, she sees me and comes to talk to me.

“Good Morning.” (Sapphire)

“Good morning, do you know why all the men are in this state? Besides, where are the other men?” (I)

“Last night was the end of a big party, what do you think happened to people who fought for more than 2 months and were full of accumulated lust?” (Sapphire)

“…” (I)

“I’m surprised to see at least 1 man standing, I even feel sorry for your son.” (Sapphire)

“Irius goes out with some Lamia?” (I)

“Yes, with the worst possible, my daughter Jade, I’m worried if he’s still alive.” (Sapphire)

“They are dating?” (I)

“I don’t know, but my daughter seems to like him a lot, so I don’t know if he’ll have any options in this matter.” (Sapphire)

“I think they match, they both have ideals of justice and they’ve both been controlled in the past by something or someone.” (I)

“What about you, having fun with someone?” (I)

“Only with the Keeper, I’m very picky about my tastes.” (Sapphire)

“Sakura is where?” (I)

“She and others went on patrol because of the undead.” (Sapphire)

While talking to Sapphire I walked to the place where a makeshift dining hall had been created inside the tower.

If I remember correctly, it’s been a while since I’ve had a decent meal.

———-

At the end of the morning, I met with Vanessa, Henrique, and Yara.

The three Priests were talking about dogmas of their own religions and the commonalities between them.

I interrupted them to talk about the continuity of the plan, I had to know what Henrique and Yara would do when I finished my part of the plan, I also had to know how long these would take.

I talk to them and learn from Vanessa that the Realms around them have been suspicious of something and have sent spies several times, but Elsaris and her family have taken care of them.

Discovering this made me realize that we can’t put off this plan any longer if any Kingdom thinks something dangerous is happening here and sending an army will only get in the way of my plans.

I thought I would have more time, but it seems I was wrong, I warn everyone to prepare, and I had to pull Nix out of my shadow to command people to return to the Dungeon.

Meanwhile, Rakan will help me in creating a ritual magic circle, this circle is to help me temporarily increase my maximum amount of mana using daring what I have stored in magic crystals during these two months in preparation for this moment.

Yara will also be using the help of Freya who has a trinity with nature to set up a ritual to invoke the power of Nature and life to create the terrain we speak on.

Henrique was using Hela’s help as she has great knowledge about death and the energies that come from it, they will create a ritual to separate the energy of death from the miasma, according to Henrique this energy would disrupt my plans and potentially hurt me seriously.

In addition to my Familiars and Divine Beasts, everyone else entered so as not to disturb what is about to happen, the three rituals could cause interference with each other, so they were created in separate places and will be used in sequence.

First, it will be Henrique’s ritual, then it will be my ritual followed by assimilating this entire place into the Dungeon, and finally, it will be Yara’s ritual to transform the terrain.

After all, this is done these two Priests will pray to their Goddesses to bless this place turning it into a holy land.

This all took a while to prepare, we need a full day for everyone to be back in the Dungeon with all the stuff we brought.

While they were doing this, Henrique, Yara, and I finished the preparations for our rituals in three different locations.

Rakan helped me create the ritual mana absorption circle, with that I can continuously absorb mana from items, if the mana is mine it will not have any side effects and the mana transfer will be faster, this should be a simple ritual, but I needed to make changes due to the large amount of Mana that will be transferred to me.

After Rakan finished he went back to the Dungeon with Layla taking him by my shadow, who I’ll need to act will be Nix right helping as the Dungeon Core.

I was alone with Nix in the center of the deity, this place would be where I would start, but first I must wait for the right moment.

Henrique was out of town with Hela, soon the two would start and when they finished I would know why the very miasma in the surroundings would lose the morbid energy it has, that would be the signal for me and Nix to start.

Yara and Freya were in the sky, they set up their ritual to invoke the powers of Nature and life in the sky above the city at the height of the clouds.

“I’m starting to get nervous…” (I)

“I really should, I’ll be fine, but the master will have to put up with a lot of pressure.” (Nix)

“I thought you might try to comfort me by telling me that everything is going to be okay.” (I) .𝘯𝘵

“But it won’t be okay, at least not for you, this plan is now just dangerous, but before calling those two Priests it was a suicidal plan.” (Nix)

“Then why didn’t you say that before?” (I)

“Would you have listened?” (Nix)

“Teria, I always listen to everything you say.” (I)

“Would you have given up on the plan?” (Nix)

“Maybe I made some changes…” (I)

“See? You were still going to go ahead with the plan, so why waste my effort, running the risk of the master coming up with a worse plan, which is almost always what happens.” (Nix)
