Odyssey of the Blind God

An Angel with two pairs of wings and golden eyes had appeared in front of Nial before he snapped his finger against Nial\'s stomach, blasting him several hundred meters away.

"That was the first one for daring to speak rudely to the Saintess of Light!" He declared in a voice that was almost void of emotions.

The Angel looked at the Deux Angel with a shaking head before he turned his attention to the Saintess of Light.

He clicked his tongue at the pitiful sight of their Saintess and he picked her up by grasping her clothes with one hand.

He threw her over his shoulders like a sack of potatoes. The Angel ignored the silently-issued complaints of the Saintess as he averted his attention to the devilized human being, who he had flung away.

Nial had already gotten up from the ground and he was shooting back in the direction of the Angel and Bella.

"You won\'t get away!" He roared out in an ear-deafening manner as he allowed the Odyssey seed to go all out. Until now, he had restrained the Odyssey seed but Nial was ready to sacrifice this control and unleash the seed to its full potential if it was necessary to kill Bella!

He was not sure whether the Angel was still at the Deux rank or if he had already attained the Keltia rank. Nial just knew that the Angel was manifold stronger than the first Angel he had encountered.

That was enough reason for him to give his all in order to get his hands on what he wanted and needed.

To his dismay, instead of being unleashed and allowed to gain full control, the Odyssey seed was being influenced by the Symbol of Life. The Ankh had been constantly trying to influence Nial after he had witnessed the death of his mother.

It had been trying to numb his pain, the anger that was churned deeply within his being, and the wrath that influenced his entire being.

The Symbol of Life had also been trying to prevent the Odyssey seed, the dark energy, and the Essence of Darkness from influencing Nial too much. It failed miserably but it had been trying to go up against the flow the entire time.

However, that had now changed. The Symbol of Life\'s color had turned abyssal black, outlined by a deep crimson before it slowly enlarged, covering the Odyssey seed in its entirety.

Instead of working against the Odyssey seed and everything it created, the Symbol of Life was trying to become one with the Odyssey seed and to influence it.

If it could alter the core problem and get to the root cause, Nial was bound to have fewer issues. That was at least the main intention the Symbol of Life pursued.

Nial noticed that the Odyssey seed and the Ankh were becoming one and he accepted it readily as he sensed that the change allowed him to become stronger.

The Essence of Darkness that had shrouded his body the whole time was retracted and it shrouded the Ankh and the Odyssey seed before pressing them together.

They were already fusing but the Essence of Darkness was used as an accelerant and a means to further alter the final result of their fusion.

The Essence of Darkness was not only one of the most destructive types of energy but it was also one of the strongest types of energies as well.

It could easily allow Nial\'s strength to elevate further if he were to use it against the Angel with two pairs of wings.

But he instinctively allowed all the Essence of Darkness to be used up in order to accelerate the fusion of the Ankh and the Odyssey seed.

Nial terminated the Ancient Devilization forcefully as well. He ordered Kaeldur to engulf the Ankh and to provide it with every single trace of energy he had accumulated.

While giving this order, Nial fully unleashed the Fairies\' Blessing to enhance his range of perception and his [Mana Sense].

"Mana, heed my call!!! Come forth and aid me in these dark times full of death and destruction!" Nial shouted at the top of his lungs, allowing all the emotions within him to let loose.

A shockwave originated from Nial\'s body as his appearance reverted back to his original looks. The powerful presence that had shrouded him until moments ago had also disappeared and it looked like Nial had just lost all his power.

Not a single trace of energy radiated from his body. However, that was impossible…had Nial never awoken his origin, to begin with!

"What is he doing?" The Angel, who was carrying the struggling Saintess asked in confusion. A trace of fear could be seen in his golden eyes because he could clearly tell that something was terribly wrong.

Nial\'s strength had been equal to a being at the Peak of the Prometheus rank for a moment before it dropped to the Mid of the Prometheus rank just to decrease further until it had disappeared completely.

It was as if Nial\'s whole energy was sealed within his body and shouldn\'t be possible for someone to accumulate even more mana than he already possessed, let alone make it move in his direction on its own.

However, that was exactly what happened. Mana emerged from the ground and mana that swirled through the surrounding area was being pulled in Nial\'s direction, rapidly.

The Mana was absorbed, and annexed before it seemed to disappear all of a sudden. That was not supposed to be possible but it was what was currently happening…right in front of him, by none other than a human of Jundra…the planet who had awoken its mana core not too long ago.

Under normal circumstances, the Angel would have long since shot forward to kill Nial or use his spatial affinity to disappear with the Saintess of Light.

His task was to bring the Saintess back, not to wreak havoc, and he was known for being great at following orders. However, for the first time in his life, he was finding it difficult to follow orders. Right at this moment, the Angel\'s golden eyes were locked on Nial, and he was unable to look anywhere else, let alone to move his body.

Even the Deux Angel looked at Nial in confusion because his current appearance and presence had changed completely.

Nial\'s uncontrollable rage and wrath had disappeared, just like that…or it seemed like this at least.

If the Angel had even the slightest inkling of what was going on, they wouldn\'t have been able to stay that calm. After all, Nial\'s emotions, all the accumulated energy he possessed, including the small strand of sealed Cursed Divine energy, and the existence of both the Odyssey seed and the Symbol of Life showed signs of merging together.

Kaledur had sacrificed almost all the energy that allowed it to come into existence to accelerate the fusion and to temporarily create something that was supposed to come into existence only after a long time.

For a short period, Nial\'s body reached a state where everything had already fused together. A black mass with crimson veins had come into existence, and it began to beat wildly, accelerating the absorption of the mana that surged toward them much faster than before.

It was as if Nial was temporarily in possession of two hearts. One heart kept his mortal body alive while the other heart was overflowing with energy that it deprived out of the surrounding in a radius of five kilometers.

And Nial made use of this whole energy without hesitation.

A huge broadsword with numerous runic constellations engraved on it and manifested in his hands.

The moment Nial grasped it tightly, he sunk deeper into the ground. Nial ignored the heavy weight of the huge broadsword as he used a ginormous amount of mana from within his second heart, the black heart that kept suctioning all the mana from the surrounding and the ground toward him, to supply the broadsword with it.

The broadsword\'s blade began to shine brightly before it began to crackle restlessly.

A huge inferno of flames and bolts of lightning erupted from the huge broadsword.

The inferno of flames and the bolts of lightning were forcefully pulled together and compressed. The sword blade chipped and the flames and lightning turned unstable, but Nial didn\'t pay any attention.

He used all this and the momentum he had generated to slash the huge sword in the direction of the two-winged Angel and Bella. After the first slash was issued, a second slash followed suit a quarter of a second later, creating a tremendous reaction as the Inferno of Flames and the bolts of lightning were merged together, creating an attack of death and destruction as they were released in the form of a Cross Slash.

[Cross Slash of the Lightning Inferno]!

When the Broadsword broke in his hand and crumbled to pieces, he threw the hilt aside before another weapon manifested in his hand.

He had the liberty to discard enough broken weapons for situations, where a stronger existence annoyed him enough to make him use them.

Broken Tier-2 runic weapons required a tremendous amount of mana to be activated but the power they could unleash was even more terrifying.

If used properly, even beings at the Deux rank could be injured by a single attack of a Broken Tier-2 runic weapon. And Nial was ready to use dozens of Broken Tier-2 runic weapons if that was necessary to kill Bella!

His mind was filled with hatred and the thought of taking revenge.

He had to kill Bella by all means and the mana around him aided him to make that happen.

His combat power might only be comparable to someone at the Prometheus rank right now but the mana he controlled right now allowed him to attack over and over again.

There was not an ounce of hesitation in his attacks. His killing intent was clearly pointed at Bella and he was ready to eradicate all the existences, who blocked him in his advances.

If necessary, he wouldn\'t mind wiping out entire races to terminate Bella. That was the extent to which Nial could go to get what he wanted as the frustration about the lack of dark energy and the Essence of Darkness was driving him insane.

Right now, Nial was struggling to control any dark energy and the Essence of Darkness in order to allow the black heart to stay in existence for a few more minutes.

All of it had been used up in order to create the black mass he considered a beating second heart. It suctioned enormous amounts of mana toward his body and acted as a second type of mana storage.

Nial made use of this second storage to initiate more attacks using Broken Tier-2 runic weapons.

A huge ice-spear followed the Lightning Inferno Cross Slash, and afterward, a ginormous serpent was created out of compressed water.

Following that, a storm of wind blades emerged, holy spears, mana bullets the size of bullet trains and many more attacks followed suit.

Nial was barely able to control each of the attacks, his mind was exhausted beyond measure and he could hardly stand on his own feet when he finished the 10th attack with a broken Tier-2 runic weapon.

His rage had consumed him and it was near-impossible for him to control his body that seemed to have acquired a mind of its own.

However, despite all of his efforts and the sacrifices he made, Bella had yet to die. The two-winged Angel had blocked all of his attacks without much difficulty.

Despite the ease with which he blocked Nial\'s attacks the Angel was still surprised.

\'He is really powerful…and persistent in his attempts to kill the Saintess…\' He thought, sighing deeply in regret.

"Looks like I will have to kill you. Curse your bad luck for being the Saintess\' enemy," The Angel said, creating a huge spear of holy light as he threw a look of regret at the struggling figure of Nial.

"You will die without much pain. Take my attack as a sign of my respect for your efforts!" He declared as he directed the spear that released a shockwave the moment it shot toward Nial with rapid speed.

Die…
