章節 620: Chapter 614: Thrones (1)
"Master, Master."
The next morning, Yuki was awakened by a warm voice...
"Master, wake up, it's important."
The voice grew louder, but Yuki, who felt so comfortable in Mukuro's arms, was too weak to want to open his eyes. After all, there was no better way to wake up than in the arms of your woman. However, he had to get up due to Est's insistence.
Still drowsy, he rubbed the corner of his eyes and gently moved to avoid waking Mukuro.
"What's going on?"
"We have a problem, Master."
"~Hm?"
This time, Yuki's eyes snapped open. He didn't know what had happened, but Est wouldn't bother him unless it was urgent. So, his consciousness dove into his spiritual world, and when it did, he was momentarily shocked.
The crown that protected his spiritual world was fully revealed. It should be noted that before, due to the fog, the crown had been hidden and barely visible. But this time, twelve peaks covered the entire spiritual world, and to make matters worse, three of the peaks bore three weapons.
"Zafkiel, Rasiel... Michael?!"
The change was significant. Yuki instantly recognized these three weapons and, at the same time, the beauty sitting next to Michael.
"Mukuro?!"
Mukuro's faint image materialized on the throne. When it did, Mukuro, who had been sleeping next to Yuki in the room, disappeared and entered the spiritual world, taking a seat on the throne.
Yuki's mouth opened in disbelief, unable to understand what was happening. Everything was so confusing. He had no idea why Mukuro was in his spiritual world.
"What's going on?"
"We don't know either, Master, but the Sky Castle has also changed."
Est pointed to the floating castle where the thick chains were now fragmented, and the aura around it had also grown stronger.
Yuki's expression changed at this. The Sky Castle was already very powerful; increasing its power even more wasn't good for him.
Not to mention the worn-out chains—they looked so fragile that Yuki even thought a slight tap might break these massive chains. However, this was just a superficial glance. Yuki knew these massive chains wouldn't be easily destroyed.
"That's not the worst part..."
Suddenly, another clear voice pulled him out of his thoughts. Yuki turned his head, and a lovely World Spirit in a black feathered dress approached him.
"Eggy."
Eggy, who had been training hard to increase her strength in seclusion, emerged from her room.
Although this girl had already changed her power system to the Multiverse and no longer needed to shut herself away to cultivate, it seemed she still couldn't let go of the habit. And although meditation slightly increased her strength, there had been a change in her energy, which was now very close to Yuki's.
The reason she came out was simple...
"The Ocarina is damaged."
The Ocarina in her hands had cracks all over it, which left Yuki in a cold sweat.
The Ocarina is a very powerful sealing weapon. According to Black Rock Shooter, although the Ocarina is quite old and its power is not as strong as it was in its prime, it is still a cosmic-level weapon.
For a weapon of this level to be damaged, the force needed would be equally tremendous.
"How bad is it? Can you repair it?"
"No, I tried earlier, but I don't have the strength to repair it."
Eggy shook her head, very dejected. As a World Spirit, her strength had always been in construction. Even though she was an Asura World Spirit and had a strong combat level, she was still helpless before a weapon like the Ocarina.
And without the Ocarina, the Demon King could no longer be contained.
"But if we join forces, we can perform a simple repair..."
However, all hope was not lost. Although Eggy couldn't repair the Ocarina on her own, if Yuki helped as a 'World Spiritist' and they combined their strengths, repairing the Ocarina wouldn't be impossible.
Yuki sighed in relief at this, but before he could relax, Eggy continued.
"And that's not all..."
"There's more?"
As if enjoying Yuki's distress, Eggy continued, while Yuki felt his head throbbing with each new revelation that was worse than the last.
"The Archangel Gabriel has been devoured."
She pointed to the small world that had merged with the crown. The Archangel, who was supposed to be imprisoned, had now disappeared—or, more precisely, been devoured by the Sky Castle.
"....."
------------
After his lovely spirits told him about the changes in the spiritual world, Yuki contemplated the pros and cons.
Indeed, not everything was bad; there were benefits in this 'misfortune.'
For example, Yuki's strength had increased. Although he hadn't reached the next level yet, for beings at his level, even a slight increase in power was noticeable.
If Yuki were to return to the God Eater world and fight the Ego of the Lord of the Abyss again, his crown would still be unable to activate the incomplete domain, and he would still have to rely on the Apocalypse Tower.
But the number of Apocalypse Towers needed to activate the incomplete domain would be halved.
And, of course, that wasn't all...
"Michael..."
Murmuring, the sealing angel was called to his hand. As he did so, Mukuro, who was resting on the throne, merged with the spear and flew directly into his hand.
"~Nushi-sama?"
Mukuro, who was forcibly awakened, murmured warmly but was also confused. She didn't know where she was, and her perspective felt a bit strange. Although she was next to Yuki, something felt different.
"Mukuro?"
Seeing the change in Michael and how Mukuro had disappeared, Yuki already had a suspicion in his heart.
Mukuro and Michael were now the same being. Mukuro was now like Est—a spirit artifact.
Moreover, the changes in Mukuro were more drastic than with Est. After all, Est, who benefited from the Demon King and was baptized with the Order, still had her 'Destiny,' while Mukuro no longer had hers. She didn't need it anymore. She was now a pure spirit of Order.
A champion's weapon.
"As long as Muku is forever with Nushi-sama, it doesn't matter. Nushi-sama is Muku's family, and family must stay together..."
After understanding all this and realizing she was now in his spiritual world, Mukuro once again transformed from her 'Weapon' state and tenderly embraced Yuki.
Last night had been her first experience. Mukuro now considered herself inseparable from Yuki, so even without the spiritual connection of the crown and the throne, Mukuro still wouldn't leave Yuki. On the contrary, she thought their connection had grown stronger...
"Thank you..."
Yuki still couldn't explain what was happening. Having Mukuro forcibly integrated into his spiritual world, merging her with Michael to become his weapon, made Yuki feel indebted to Mukuro. It was quite unfair if viewed from another perspective. Mukuro was different from Est and Eggy. The fact that this girl didn't mind and was happy lifted a great weight off his shoulders...
Even so, he couldn't ignore what was happening...
There was both good and bad, leaving the Demon King aside...
Mukuro's Sephira Crystal had disappeared and merged with the crown, and Mukuro's power level had also increased, matching Yuki's.
A Low-level Destroyer...
<Mukuro, Michael> was a spirit to be feared.
Another piece of good news was that Mukuro could still remain as an independent life form, just like Est and Eggy. She could come out and live as before and even fight independently, just as she used to.
However, due to the lack of energy, Mukuro couldn't stay in an independent state for too long during battle and needed to recharge in the throne...
Moreover, as Yuki's weapon, Mukuro had the power to activate an 'Incomplete Domain,' just like Zafkiel, and thanks to her direct control, the energy consumption was lower and the duration longer compared to Zafkiel.
And since Mukuro had no destiny, she was now a weapon that Yuki could use to fight directly against Chaos.
After all, being a pure spirit of Order, Mukuro was its nemesis and wouldn't suffer like Est...
