Extra And MC-Chapter 206 - 202 - Return

"{Moonveil Art – Third Form: Starshower}."

At first it was a single shimmer of light, visibly dim and veiled beneath the hue of the dark, dreary clouds and sky.

And then, the gloomy clouds parted, revealing a million bright, pale-blue lights, all akin to falling stars, falling towards the entire expanse the Frontlines!

-TWISH-!

-TWISH-!

-TWISH-!

-TWISH-!

It was like a heavy rainfall, only, what should’ve been droplets of water, were high-speed, bright, pale-blue, droplets of light-based energy, all of them, viciously killing off any demon it landed upon!

-KACH-!

-KACH-!

-KACH-!

Truly, the scene before everyone’s eyes was unbelievable.

It was, quite literally, a star shower, one that was aimed, solely at the demons and the demonic army alone.

If it had landed on the humans, it was akin to a harmless ray of light and yet, for the demons and the other races, it was dissipating them to ashes in a heartbeat.

The rate at which the high-tiered demons were being obliterated, wasn’t completely enough to instantly tip the scales of the war and yet, the cause for said expansively destructive attack, was yet to be seen.

But Beelzebub…

Beelzebub knew clearly well the only two people capable of an attack of such destructive magnitude!

He had already killed the first so it should only remain one!

Amael.

Yet…

Why, in incarnation, did he sense multiple individuals coming from the skies!

Without even a second wasted, he hurled his moon-sized ball of energy at the incoming individuals, the speed moving at a blur despite its gigantic size!

As all these played out, everyone on the Frontlines, were forced to watch this turn of events, none of them, unable to fully comprehend what exactly was going on.

And yet, the moment the next words were heard, every single ranker who knew of the only people capable of such feats, instantly felt a cascading wave of joy, fill up their entire beings;

’{Berserker Art – Third Form: Infinity’s End}.’

No sooner had they heard those words, everyone on the Frontlines, had their mouths agape as they watched a corporeal, gigantic, greatsword of astronomical length, made up of a red-hued energy, split open the heavens to collide with The Demon King’s gargantuan purplish orb of energy!

-FUAM-!!!

Splitting the humongous orb in a literal half with little to no effort, the pressurized burst of wind created from the leviathan-sized greatsword, sent a massive windstorm billowing in every direction, enough that the entirety of the gloomy clouds, cleared up in an instant to reveal the bright sunny skies!

-FUUAAAAASSSHHH-!!!

And with that singular attack, came the appearance of the cause of the two, war-tilting attacks!

Aiden and Flynn Belmont!

The moment the rankers on the Frontlines, all of whom knew of, or were related to the brothers, saw this, they all, individually, reacted in their own way.

Their partners, along with their mother, burst into tears of joy whilst their father and Ivar, along with every other person they were friends with or acquainted with, let out immediate battle cries!

Battle cries that indicated that their spirits had been reinvigorated and their hopes, restored!

However, that was not all.

Trailing behind the two youths first, were the Valkyries, all of them completely healed up and back to their pristine state, their armors, gleaming in the sunlight with radiant smiles present on their visage, even beneath their Valkyrian feathered-helmets.

Secondly, were all of the Caeruleum Tribe warriors, their blue hair fluttering in the wind along with Evie who was grinning in exhilaration.

But more than that, far more than that, were two other individuals.

First, was Xavier Chrono, who was very much still alive, his hair billowing in the wind as he hurtled behind the youths!

As for the second individual, no sooner had Beelzebub, along with his Demon Generals saw him, an instant wave of fear, cascaded over their entire beings, one that caused The Demon King to let out a furious bellow!

"AMAAAAEEEELLL!!!"

* * *

(A few minutes earlier…)

Having met up with Amael in the Astral Plane, Aiden and Flynn, had conversed with the Hero.

Considering he had no physical body of his own, and only the corporeal form of his body along with his actual soul remained, Flynn had come up with a pretty nifty idea.

Creating a doppleganger of himself with Prana, Flynn had Amael, use the body that was created from it as his own.

And eventually, when Amael did take up the vessel, he soon morphed it, into a vessel of his own as he rebuilt it from the ground up, in his own image, an entity, cut off and separated from Flynn’s energy.

Considering the youths were of two worlds, the restrictions that should’ve originally being a hindrance to them doing this, had next to no implications for them.

Why?

Because the will of the world, had no idea how to classify them, just like the celestial orbs.

That was their sole advantage as otherworlders and reincarnators.

Getting out of the Astral Plane after that, both individuals watched as the Gatekeeper, with a warm smile on her face, walked towards them and placed her hands on Aiden and Flynn’s heads.

That single gesture of hers, gave the youths an answer to one more unsolved mystery that they always had.

How exactly did the celestial orbs, come to be and why, had they landed on Earth?

Turns out, Gaia herself, on her supposed death bed, had been the one to create them, one she had done in an effort to keep her powers sealed away from Arcanora for good.

However, since all of her powers couldn’t fit into one orb, she had ended up separating them into two.

But, once their parents, Zack and Alyssa had found it, mostly because Alyssa created the Fate Globe, an entity of similar structure to it but with a different use case, the orbs, began to beckon for it, even from another world.

The siren song, was also, what had guided Alyssa to it, and how, they had eventually had it, brought it back to Arcanora.

So, in reality, Amael was never the one to had infused the siren tune into the orbs, rather, it was just a guideline of sorts for directions to wherever Gaia’s things or Gaia herself was situated.

After that massive revelation, though, Aiden and Flynn then listened as Gaia told them that the orbs weren’t necessary to her anymore as she had still come back into being regardless and it was quite literally, useless to her.

Basically, it was all theirs, free to do with as they pleased.

No sooner had she said that, she had then casually waved them over and walked into the Astral Plane, taking her rightful place as the God of their universe.

Thanking her for that, Aiden and Flynn, along with Amael, made their way out of the Astral Plane shortly after, with Aiden using ((Fracture)), once again, to transport them back to Arcanora.

The moment they had arrived though, back in space and on the moon, they had watched from afar as Beelzebub’s attack, obliterated the entire sea, turning it into a mist of fog and vapor.

And yet, just as Amael’s gaze had turned deathly cold at the thought of his brother being dead, murder on his mind, both he, along with the brothers, watched as both The Sentinel and The Valkyries whom he had previously encased in a dome, back when he had first arrived on the moon, suddenly materialized back into existence.

Simultaneously, Xavier, now completely an old man with a very wrinkled face, reappeared before the three, completely catching them off-guard.

As he even struggled to walk, there was still a smile, plastered on his aged face, one that the three instantly dashed forward to hold him before he staggered and crashed to the ground.

Explaining to them, the sequence of events that had happened, Xavier soon explained how he had slowly started aging due to the restrictions for interfering with the memories of Arcanora’s events and its inhabitants.

Following that, he also explained how the war had been going and how, he had tricked Beelzebub into believing it was him he had still been battling with.

Explaining that he had used [Fragmentation], a spell that he had used to create Novier, Amael had a wave of nostalgia on his features, thinking back to all those millenniums back.

Basically, Xavier had split his being into two, with one side retaining most of his major memories and the other, retaining a few, along with his undying hatred for Beelzebub.

Having done that, he then casted [Chrono Stasis], a spell, which asides from preventing damage to an individual by freezing that exact moment in time it encased them, could also erase the existence of someone or something for a fixed amount of time.

That reason, was exactly why, Beelzebub, literally had no idea where the Valkyries and The Sentinel had vanished off to.

That same reason, was exactly why, he hadn’t realized that he had forgotten his original goal of destroying the contraption when he hurtled to space and also, killing off the Valkyries for good.

As for the Valkyries themselves, Sigrun and Senya were still barely holding on for dear life whilst the Ashildr and Morrigan, were still squirming in excruciating pain.

Swiftly, Amael blinked over to them, using his own authority, ((Rule Breaker)) to instantly, remove the restrictions on them, causing the brain-searing pain which was rapidly erasing their memories, to stop affecting them.

At the same time, he also used his [Creative Series] to return them back to healthy status, one that he had done because Aiden and Flynn informed him that healing potions, had no effect on the Valkyries whatsoever since their physiology was different from humans which it was created for.

Simultaneously, he did the same for Xavier a few seconds after, using his authority to lift his restrictions and simultaneously trying to heal him.

Previously, this was something he was unable to do, especially since the restrictions on he himself would have being too heavy and wouldn’t have allowed for him to tamper with other beings when he himself was shackled by it.

However, now that he was more or less an unexplainable entity, one that was simply living in the vessel of another being who was also another entity of his own, the will of the world, had no way to classify him and just let him be, just like it did to the youths.

Yet, as Xavier watched the restrictions lifted off him, nothing changed and his appearance remained the same, causing both Xavier and the youths, to become extremely confused.

To this Xavier then explained to the three that he was dying regardless, and the [Fragmentation] spell he had casted, literally split him into a young man and an old man in his dying hours.

Basically, he was in a state where he was already out of time and could die at a moment’s notice.

However, without even a single moment wasted, the brothers, had looked at each other and instantly, Flynn clasped Aiden’s hands and then used his own Authority, tightly gripping onto Xavier’s hands, much to Amael’s confusion.

But, when he watched as Flynn and Aiden, slowly began to de-age, both of their features returning back to their late teens, he soon realized what exactly, Flynn’s Authority was.

It was basically an authority, that quite literally had control over the temporal mana in his own being and others, making it so that he could remove a certain portion of himself and others, just like Xavier’s [Fragmentation], to share with other people.

Honestly, it was the basis of Doppelganger itself, one that he had greatly expanded upon to create the authority.

No sooner had that happened though, Xavier gradually watched himself revert to a younger version of himself, causing him to widen his eyes in amazement as he stared at the two brothers.

To this, the youths then explained that they had siphoned off and reversed quite a lot of the unnecessary years they had spent in the Astral Maze, giving all of that added lifespan to him in the form of mana since they didn’t need it.

Around that exact same time, the Valkyries finally woke up, all of them covering their mouth in a wave of joy as they watched Amael, kneeling, right beside Flynn and Aiden as they tended to Xavier.

Reunited once again after so, so, so many years, their joy knew no bounds.

However, they all knew, that they still had, one more important thing to do.

And that was to rid the universe of the stain that was Beelzebub!

Instantly, Ashildr snapped her fingers and swiftly, Evie and the rest of her tribe, made their way out of The Sentinel, the situation, a bit curious to Amael who had no knowledge of these people.

As for the others, they knew from the onset that Ashildr had purposely ordered all of them to only attack during the third wave of the invasion.

Considering her orders were absolute, they were forced to simply watch on, even when they had all watched both her and sisters lose against The Demon King from the Sentinel’s feed along with Novier.

Evie on the other hand, had wanted to disobey orders but the rest of her tribe members had held her down, preventing her from going out.

But now, now everything was alright.

Now, she, along with her tribe members could fully exert as much destruction as they wanted on the Demon King and his army.

And so, as they hurtled downwards from the sky, watching as Beelzebub yelled out Amael’s name with a bellowing shout of fury, they, along with everyone else across the expanse of the battlefield, heard as the Hero replied with a condescending grin and a shout of his own;

"HI! DID YOU MISS ME?!"
