Chapter 393 Finding The Forgotten

A few minutes prior to the arrival of Margie's party...

Kyros was lost in the deep darkness of a strange world.

The attack that they sent out that formed a dark hole was an attack that vastly surpassed what they could do. In that attack, Kyros had to use his two cores. His Light and Dark core were used, and [Phos Eis Skotos] was used to turn Light into darkness.

But the result of that power created darkness beyond comprehension.

Everyone fell into an exhausted state, and their bodies were too tired and drained as they were out of energy.

Their internal injuries were also great, as the raging element they allowed to the course in their bodies caused numerous ruptures and wounds.

But the truth was, they had already recovered a day ago. Under Lea's orders, the team had already been on the massive healing platform that was using the Brimstone cores as a source to use the souls trapped within and heal the team.

The energy formation circle itself was a thing of horrors that was only used by the Eldrich race.

Yet unknown to everyone, a subtle power was at work that was making everyone forget about them!

They were supposed to awaken soon, and even Lea told them when they would, but it did not occur. And yet, everyone was constantly battling as they had forgotten who was on that platform.

When Kyros, Mechiel, and Listrel harnessed the power to create a black hole, they found themselves falling into a strange state similar to the Dark Maddening. But because of Kyros's power and the Light Core he had, he was confident that he could pull everyone out.

They used that world to train in the darkness and for Listrel to understand the inverse elements and learn from them to gain more resistance.

But as the group continued to meditate on the vast darkness, they found themselves being separated from each other, and they all fell into a deep sleep.

Little did Kyros know, the world they were in was not the same darkness that Kyros fell into when he met Kyriachos. Instead, it was similar to the world of Kyriachos, but it had an even more sinister aspect.

The darkness that was around him was not just a void in space. It wasn't just nothingness that had no light. It was the darkness of no existence. It was a realm beyond the created and was a place that no one could physically travel to.

It wasn't in any rift, in any portal, or any cracks within the spacial realm. Instead, it was in a place that had been created.

Slowly, Kyros was falling deep into the strange world of this darkness, and he was being affected by it.

His existence and thought were slowly disappearing into the vast blackness.

It was then that the hunter began to move.

A being of darkness formed and was moving to erase every form of memory of this being.

"Quite a tough one... Your ties to everyone are quite strong. It's very hard to have everyone forget about you." The sinister creature approached.

It raised its arm, and it transformed into long needles that looked similar to the forms of the Shadow Ghouls.

It then stabbed its blade out towards Kyros.

BOOM!

The Balefire sword of Kyros appeared in his hands and met the enemy's attack. But during the many wars and massacres, the sword of Balefire had evolved once more. From being able to use fire and entropy, the new sword that Kyros forged during his stay in Castle Rock could now become a sword of Brimstone!

And this sword and cloak were now tied to Kyros's soul.

Darkness had met Brimstone which was one of its most loathed enemies.

But despite the sudden attack of Kyros, which managed to purge half of the arm of the being, the being only laughed as it retreated.

"How intelligent! You already sensed my attack from the start! I see now... Mysterion!" The being laughed as it became one with the darkness around you.

"Who are you?! Why have you attacked me and..." Kyros roared but realized he was having difficulty completing his sentence.

"And... And...! What did you do to me?!" Kyros shouted angrily. He had realized that he was supposed to have allies here, but they vanished! And he couldn't even remember who it was.

"Having trouble remembering? That's normal. And even if I wanted to tell you who I am, I can't. It is my nature to do so. Only Histerion knows my name."

"...You! Then you are...! Rumpelstiltskin?"

"...Ugh. So Calaminus is with you? That old coot made the same joke when we met. Of course, I doubt he will remember."

"You are Forgetfulness?"

"I am the being that allows memories to fade. I am that which makes creation forget its experience. I am the one that makes all things fleeting."

"Of course... If this world is doomed to burn in brimstone, the gods and fallen would still be able to remember this place! And yet, only Calaminus can remember... This means that this world doomed for destruction is also a world that is doomed to be forgotten! You are the opposite of Histerion! Histerion purges this world with Brimstone! He makes all things ashes! But you are what devours it all and makes it nothing!"

"As expected of Mysterion. The Goddess of Wisdom may be the only being who is constantly aware of me apart from Histerion."

"If your name is forgotten, I shall give you another name, so I shall always remember! Oblivion!"

"Oblivion? How quaint."

"Would you rather be called Skyrim? Or Morrowind?" Kyros laughed.

"Hm? You're buying time, aren't you?"

"Me... Mechiel! I remember!" Kyros suddenly flew as his dark wings expanded out, and he flew towards a certain point of the darkness as Kyros managed to recall it. Ever since he was in the darkness and had forgotten everyone, the power of Charm was calling out. It called out and cried in desperation, for it could not accept being forgotten.

Kyros had already lost his memories in the place to the point that all he did was try to survive. It wasn't only until Oblivion appeared that he finally understood his enemy and began concentrating on trying to remember.

And there, he caught the ripples and tears of the Charmed fallen that did not wish to be forgotten in its vanity.

"Xarmolipi! Of course!" Oblivion cursed as his form changed, and a massive black ball with large tentacles became his form.

Kyros began to charge out, and the tentacles began to reach out and whip out at him.

The Brimstone Sword erupted in energy as his light arm was fueling it, and Kyros began to slash back and fly in search of her.

"Mechiel!" Kyros began to shout as he flew and escaped the tentacles of the massive creature.

But as Kyros kept shouting the name, another person woke up. The name of Mechiel had spurred the memories in Listrel. And as the power of the Charmed Fallen cried out in desperation, Listrel began to remember.

"Damn it... I nearly... died!" Listrel shouted as she could see her body turning into a transparent form.

"I've already died in this timeline! I won't die again!" Listrel roared in anger as she harnessed the power of the leaf in her soul.

"I need... power!" She shouted as she realized she couldn't move. She could see the battle from as far as the darkness could not hide the fires of Brimstone.

"Calm down...! Calm down and remember!" Listrel could feel the power making her mind fall into a trance.

"This is a different kind of Dark maddening! Do not give in! This is a soul realm!" Listrel began to remind herself of everything Kyros explained when they reached here.

"I was already close to using it! This soul realm can benefit my leaf! That was what Kyros said! The power of Skotosynthesis! And if I feed my plant, it could give birth to live! Our real bodies are being healed by Brimstone cores! In theory... I can do something similar Skotos Eis Phos...! I am a leaf of the Yggdrasil! Make my body the tree and this darkness the soil! Summon the brimstone and burn the leaf! In this soul realm, I'll turn myself into a burning bush!" Listrel closed her eyes and wielded the energy in her to empower the light.

But as she gathered more and more energy, what she was able to summon was not the light. Instead, her soul birthed Brimstone as the leaf caught on fire.

VOOOSH!

Her entire form began to burn with strange fire, and the flames pierced the darkness.

"...Listrel!" Kyros recalled her name, and Kyros charged towards where Listrel was.

The powers affecting and causing Listrel to be forgotten are purged away.

"Listrel! Reflect my light!"

"Yes!" Listrel answered.

Kyros held his sword with his two hands.

"[Skotos Eis Phos]!" Kyros shouted and sent out a massive beam of light towards Listrel.

With Listrel's soul recovering, she harnessed the energy and power she had already mastered.

A massive mirror appeared, and the light was reflected.

FLASH!

A bright light shone all over the place and caused the darkness of Oblivion to flee.

As the light illuminated the area, it struck a certain body floating in the darkness and caused her to awaken.

The light had shed on her, and she could finally move. Unlike Listrel and Kyros, Mechiel only had the darkness with her. And so she had no other means to fight this place.

"Kyros! Help!" Mechiel managed to cry out.
