367 Chrono's decision - part two -

It was a chilly night and the wind passed through the hair of Demeter.

"The name is Demeter" She said.

The man nodded to Demeter.

"This humble monk's name is Bodhisattva" Said Bodhisattva while bowing.

"I didn't ask" Said Demeter.

"It's just simple politeness" Said Bodhisattva

"Then how about you are also polite and go direct to the point" Said Demeter.

She took one more to the front and looked at Bodhisattva in the eyes.

"Can we do as we never saw each other?" Asked Demeter.

"I am afraid that isn't possible, benefactor" Said Bodhisattva.

Demeter and Bodhisattva looked at each other.

"Too much talk"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind Demeter!

"Die!"

Cameron appeared from behind Demeter and swung his fist towards her!

But…

"!?"

Cameron was stunned when Demeter turned around slowly, without moving an inch.

And she just looked at him with cold eyes.

"Shit!" Though Cameron.

However, it was too late to retreat!

*SWTICH*

"AHH"!

Cameron looked stunned when he saw a black thing piercing his arm!

"When the adults are talking" Said slowly Demeter.

The black thing seemed to come to life with Demeter's words.

It quickly shot itself towards a rock nearby with Cameron's arm on it!

*PUM*!

The arm of Cameron incrusted itself on the rock while the rest of his body was sent flying!

"AHHHHHH!" Cameron shouted in agony while he tried to grab his already missing arm.

"Kids stay quiet" Said Demeter

"How!? I didn't even see her coming! She wasn't this powerful in the conference!" Shouted Cameron.

Demeter turned to look at him with her beautiful and yet cold eyes.

"It's because we were fighting at day"

"But now…"

From her arms, two black serpents appeared and disappear continually.

"No! they aren't serpents!" Though Cameron.

"Chains" Another voice completed Cameron's thoughts

Demeter turned again and looked at Bodhisattva.

"I will ask again"

"Can we do as we didn't see each other?" She said.

Bodhisattva looked at the serpents like chains.

"Death soul aura…" Said Bodhisattva.

"Not complete… but yes" Said Demeter.

Bodhisattva sighed.

"It seems like a cruel joke of fate" Though Bodhisattva.

He pointed his staff to Demeter.

"Here I go" He said.

He ran towards Demeter at a slow pace…

Or so it seems…

*PUM*!

Demeter Felt his chain clashing with something.

She looked at his side and saw the staff clashing with her chains.

"How…" Though Demeter.

She was surprised for only a moment, after that, she made her move.

"[Purge]" She said softly.

"Not good" Though Bodhisattva.

He didn't let go of his staff. He closed his eyes and began to chant!

The staff glommed while a white light began to emit from the staff.

Demeter quickly separated from Bodhisattva and her chains rotated around herself forming a small barrier.

"Life soul aura… indeed, you are one of them" Said Demeter.

"It seems that we have the same kind of origin" Said Bodhisattva.

"Yes and no" Said Demeter.

"Yes, we come from the same universe"

One of her chains swung around her arms.

"But we are way too different"

She propelled herself towards Bodhisattva while the point of the chains changed their direction in mid-air making it impossible to predict!

"Faster!" Shouted Demeter.

The chains spin faster and faster.

Bodhisattva didn't stay still, he ran towards the sides to evade the attack.

"You are not going anywhere!"

Demeter launched herself to Bodhisattva.

Bodhisattva furrowed while hi swung his staff in order to face the chains.

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

The chains and the staff collide with each other.

The chains were fast and swift, however, for some reason, Demeter felt strange while facing Bodhisattva.

"How can I not concrete any attack?" Though Demeter.

*PAM*

With a stomp, Demeter disengaged and quickly jumped backward.

"You…" Said Demeter.

Bodhisattva didn't wait for Demeter.

He launched himself towards Demeter and started to swing his staff.

"The first step to heavens" Said Bodhisattva.

*OMMMM*!

The staff vibrated and a huge soul life aura exploded in the staff!

"This is bad!" Said Demeter.

She tried to retrieve, however, a barrier with the staff as the center expanded and obstructed his path.

The staff clashed with the chains once more, but this time…

*Crack*

The chains began to crack!

"Kuh!"

Demeter spat a small amount of blood.

The blood soiled the staff and the glow in the staff decreased.

"…" Bodhisattva looked at his soiled staff and retreated as well.

Both took a step forward and quickly moved to each other.

Demeter's chains moved fast and tried to grab Bodhisattva's legs, however, he reacted quickly, he stomped the ground with his staff, evading the chains and, continue his way towards Demeter!

"[The second step]" Said softly Bodhisattva.

This time, the staff did the exact opposite, it became darker and darker until its golden color turned into black.

"A monk using death power!?" Demeter was stunned.

"It's the price to pay for my sins" Said Bodhisattva.

"However… this will give you rest…" Added the monk.

Bodhisattva arrived at Demeter's front and he lifted his staff.

"Amitabha"

Demeter looked panicked at the staff coming at her. Bodhisattva looked at her panicked expression.

However, something didn't feel right.

���She isn't avoiding it…"

The staff was a few centimeters away from Demeter and suddenly…

She smiled.

"My chains aren't black just for style" Said Demeter.

"NOT GOOD!" Though Bodhisattva.

However, it was too late.

*PUM*!

A huge amount of death soul power exploded in front of Demeter!

Bodhisattva quickly retreated and view in stupefaction how the soul aura didn't disperse!

Instead, it contracted and become smaller and smaller!

"Impossible! there is no human that can absorb death soul power! Even those who have mastered the cursed laws of death can't absorb this amount of soul power!" Said Bodhisattva in panic.

After a few seconds, the curtain of black smoke disappeared, leaving Demeter in front of Bodhisattva.

However, this time, there was a big change.

With her new white eyes, Demeter looked at Bodhisattva.

"That's the fundamental difference between us"

Four chains grew from behind her back while her long transformed from brow to dark.

"There is no impossible from GODS"

"MORTAL" Said coldly Demeter.
