Capítulo 86: Ties that Bind [P1]
//Back at the Nraka~//
The immensely powerful Titans stood amongst the rubble of Nraka, their forms like towering monuments of destruction.
Nothing living remained, even the powerful devils beneath the surface had been quickly taken care of by Atul's four powerful fists.
In the center of the continent, a final golden vortex appeared. A crystal titan slowly walked out from the swirling golden portal. Slender in form with glittering skin and reflective quartz hair it was Eos! Titaness of power, crystals and Qi. Strongest of all her kin.
"The Allmother demands.. and I obey.." Eos muttered as she slowly raised her hands.
Her body began to vibrate and her crystals resonated like heavenly chime causing space to distort and twist like a black hole.
All the power in the universe seemed to be condensing into her hands, the very fabric of reality bending under her might.
With hands glowing a misty grey, she struck down with all her might. Her gigantic hands buried deep into the earth causing all of Nraka to shake, it's surface jumping up and down violently.
Roaring gales picked up turning into giant hurricanes which cut rock like paper, lightning struck from above leaving enormous electrified craters, volcanoes erupted spewing magma and ash into the air and the earth itself began to buckle and split.
The apocalyptic events happening in succession didn't bother the surrounding titans as they stood still, waiting.
Finally with a wrenching thunderous boom, Nraka split apart into several parts that drifted alone into the void of space like broken remnants of a glorious era.
Eos and the rest of the titans hovered above the destroyed remains of Nraka, like puppets that had completed their mission they all waited silently.
A heavenly voice echoed throughout the void. "Good job my creations, now go."
After receiving the command, the Titans returned through the golden vortex one by one until none were left.
"My little worker bees are quite efficient no?" Ariel chuckled as she walked along the edge of the small island on which the black palace was built upon.
Dong Mu looked soulless as he laid unresponsive on the ground, his eyes dim and his face dyed red with dried blood.
With no reply given, Ariel scoffed. Raising her hand, she snapped her fingers.
Just beyond the black palace, a large statue similar in size to the titans appeared.
In it's palms, there rested a large ominous looking cube. It's surface was sleek and metallic, otherwise marred by the faces of countless devils distorted in unimaginable pain which moved along it's walls in aimless directions.
The souls of all the dead devils was used to forge this amalgamation of torture and there would never be peace for them as they suffered under the cube's horrendous designs.
Ariel walked over to Dong Mu and picked him up by the neck like one would a chicken. She walked across the void towards the cube with Dong Mu's wife, sister and child hovering closely behind them. Their screams of pain had long been muted by Ariel as they had begun to grate on her ears.
As they reached the walls of the cube, the wails from the souls trapped in it's walls reached their ears giving them unpleasantly cold feeling, though Ariel hardly noticed.
"Open." Ariel said with glee sparkling in her golden eyes. Before their eyes, the wall warped and formed a gaping mouth with a full set of jagged metallic teeth, inside lay a tangible inky darkness which writhed and squirmed.
"Welcome to your new home dust! There are many wondrous things for you to discover and experience inside, and I mean every singly one of you.." Ariel winked mysteriously at Dong Mu who was struggling for breath as he futilely scratched at her hand.
Dong Mu didn't seem to comprehend her words, his mind was a complete mess as he had already bordered the edge of madness. Only his primal instinct to survive seemed to remain.
"Well.. you'll come to understand what I mean eventually." Ariel turned her head and observed the cube as if looking at a piece of fine artwork.
"Of course the rent is cheap as only your suffering is required for payment.. hahaha!" Ariel giggled, she took one more look at Dong Mu before throwing him into the cube's mouth along with his family.
"Ahhh!!"
Dong Mu screamed as the inky darkness formed tendrils that wrapped around him and his family's bodies dragging them deeper into the abyssal chasm of a mouth.
*Snap!*
The mouth closed shut and quickly disappeared along with Dong Mu. The cube wall regained it's former haunting appearance as the souls of those damned to endure eternal pain returned, their agony stricken faces warped and moved along the cube's shiny surface.
...
//Hidden Void in the Fourth Heaven~//
Eos's gigantic eyes fluttered open confusedly as they slowly regained their clarity.
Observing her surroundings she discovered that she was still trapped in the prison built for her by her sister Tartara, an endless black void of space.
Eos frowned. [Humph.. naughty little sister, just wait till I get out and punish you!]
[What happened?] Eos felt a wave of dizziness wash over her as she shook her head and tried to remember. [I seem to have fallen asleep?]
After failing to racall what happened, she heard something coming from behind, turning around, what she saw made her gasp in surprise.
Behind her was a giant golden vortex that was slowly disappearing.
Eos felt a trace of the Allmother from the vortex and her eyes opened wide. [The Allmother!?] Her body shook as a fanatical gaze of reverence flashed in her eyes.
She reached out to touch the vortex but it disappeared too quickly.
Eos sighed in disappointment, but then she noticed something.
Where the golden vortex once was, there was a small crack with light slowly pouring out from it.
Eos's eyes lit up as she praised. "Thank you for your benevolence almighty Allmother!"
With an eager expression, Eos punched towards the crack and with a thunderous boom it widened.
After another punch, her crystaline fist shattered the small crack, punching right through the wall of her prison.
With a grin, Eos grabbed both edges of the small hole and pulled outwards. The breach in the wall wrenched and widened until it was now a big enough hole for Eos to escape from.
With an exhale, Eos jumped out of the hole with an absolute feeling of glee.
With the feeling of freedom washing over her, Eos shouted excitedly. "Little brother!!"
"You were wrong! The heavens must be cleansed of the insects that now inhabit it! The little goddess has decreed so!" A swirling storm of energy surrounded her.
"My imprisonment didn't change a thing and now that I am free.. I will finish what I've started!" Eos said happily, though she noticed something which caused a feeling of anger to swell within her.
"Oh?" Eos turned around. With her mighty gaze, she saw a small ant peeping on her.
[One of the little bugs the little Goddess told me to kill.. They infest all three of the lower heavens and continue to grow like a plague, how dare it!]
"A little insect dares spy on me?" Eos's purple eyes became bloodshot with blue streaks.
"Die!!!" Eos shouted angrily causing space and time to distort.
"Ah!"
She heard a terrified scream before whoever was peeping on her disappeared. Feeling satisfied with her work, she muttered. "There's no way that little bug survived."
Eos snorted before turning her gaze to somewhere else. [Time to punish some naughty siblings..]
