Chapter 978 Cap 976: Welcome Back Elizabeth Part 3
The blood giant had disappeared within the mist of blood that had risen from his body evaporating with the blood that made up his body boiling.
Before I thought it was just steam, then this steam built up enough to notice that it didn’t move away from the blood giant until it became a mist that hid him inside, but now it looks more like a cloud around him, a red cloud blood.
I took advantage of my Aura and power stopped being absorbed while only red energy continued to come out of the statue for a few more seconds before also stopping, I took advantage of my work being basically over to pull a barrel of blood twice my size into to drink.
It took me just a few seconds to drink all of this, I felt like I had spent years in the desert without seeing water once, and now I can finally fill my stomach with this wonderful liquid, and in this analogy, this liquid represents this absurd amount of blood that I just drank drink at once.
“I’ve had worse…” (I)
Sigh
I felt the rapid digestion of this blood while I felt my veins dry before, now I try a few drops of blood appearing, halfway through the Awakening Ceremony I had already lost the connection I had with the giant made of my own blood, it was as if the connection was changing.
I look down at my hand with a start when I realize it looks like a mummy’s hand, it was just skin and bones, it was at that moment that I noticed that my previously perfectly fitted outfit is now loose enough to fit another person inside.
I was completely dry, I ran my hands over my face and I only felt the hardness of my bones, it was a strange sensation and I hadn’t even realized how fragile my state was until that moment.
I was very shocked by my state, but suddenly I saw a glint out of the corner of my eye and came to look at the place where my sister was still going through her Awakening Ceremony.
That’s when I realized that the cloud of blood around him was a sphere flowing in circles.
In addition, it seemed that within these clouds there were lightning and thunder of different colors, but they were not emerging from the center, they were emerging from the edges and reaching the center causing lights to appear from within from time to time revealing a smaller and smaller silhouette.
I look towards the pool of my blood realizing that it was now empty, in addition to losing all the blood in my body, I also lost all the blood that was in the pool that was also mine.
“Aren’t you going to pull away?” (Natasha)
“Not yet, I don’t think it will take that long, I’d like to see it through to the end.” (I)
The flashes within the cloud became more and more frequent, the flashes more and more intense to the point where the silhouette within was no longer visible.
I also started to feel my presence disappear from the cloud sphere completely, the same for the presence of the Goddess Selene, the only presence left was the one I felt inside my blood before when my sister Elizabeth was still inside my body.
“Aren’t the others coming over?” (I)
“They can’t, this is still the Authority-filled presence of a Demigoddess creating a new body, if not for this Temple the whole city would have been crushed by this presence.” (Natasha)
“I don’t feel that presence is that strong.” (I)
“You and I are immune, we share her origins, our presences, Aura and Authority don’t have such a terrible effect on each other.” (Natasha) .
The cloud of blood outside looks like a storm cloud, but no sound comes out of there, all we can see are the flashes caused by the various colored lightning bolts, no sound ever comes out of the cloud which seems to become thicker and thicker to the point of material what should be in a gaseous state appears almost liquid.
“Why was she still alive even without a body?” (I)
“I could feel her weak life force within me before, even now in the ceremony she was not considered to be reborn.” (I)
“She is being restored.” (I)
“She must be killed twice to be considered dead.” (Natasha)
“His Authority of hers allows him to transfer his Soul and part of his power through the bloodline we all share as brothers.” (Natasha)
“Her body may have been destroyed, but she didn’t really die, she would have died if you were killed with her still inside you.” (Natasha)
“I see…” (I)
She’s more absurd than I imagined, she basically uses her family as a fallback point if she dies, like roleplaying games where if the character dies in a fight for the world, they come back to the city or some other fallback point.
“(This is very ripped off if this was a game I would report her for cheating.)” (I)
————–
I stayed in the same place for 30 minutes next to Natasha while we were watching the storm sphere in front of us.
During that time my body digested all that blood I drank and produced a little more blood in my veins, so I drank 5 more barrels of the same size as the previous one of blood, thanks to which I can finally feel a weak flow of blood through my body and I’m not as skinny as I used to be.
I may not be 100% yet, but at least I’m not in the same weakness as before, meanwhile, the storm sphere in front of us has an almost solid appearance, we can’t even see the lightning inside anymore.
It only took a few more seconds for the outer surface of the sphere to stop moving, it seemed completely solid now, but the presence we felt before now seems to have something more, I’m sure Natasha can feel that Authority too.
A tyrannical Authority that demands not obedience but respect.
An Authority that does not allow itself to be contradicted or denied, its sovereignty cannot be denied, I could feel that Authority, but I was not affected by it.
Crack
“Looks like the time has finally come.” (I)
“I think you better get away from me for a bit.” (Natasha)
“Why?” (I)
Crack Crack
Soon cracks began to appear on the sphere’s surface and a red glow began to seep through the cracks.
“I might have done something… Urgh!!!!” (Natasha)
Crack Crack Crack
Boommm!!!!
Suddenly I felt a gust of wind and the next thing I knew Natasha wasn’t next to me, she went through the wall behind me flying away, next to me there was another person who was surrounded by red mist.
When I trace where it came from I notice that the fog trail around that person leads to the sphere that has a huge hole now.
“I’m fine now, I’ve wanted to do this for a while.” (Elizabeth)
“…” (I)
The presence, Aura, and Authority that previously emanated from the sphere disappear, but I can feel traces of them coming from this person that I’m sure is Elizabeth, even her voice is the same one I heard in my head before, a voice full of extreme confidence.
“I don’t know what that was but…” (I)
“Welcome back Elizabeth.” (I)
