Chapter 554 Fall Of The Stars



Nightwing and his team could attack and kill many in their ambush. They timed the attacks right when everyone was focused on attacking the falling flames.

Four Crowns were killed, and Nightwing quickly devoured their corpses!

Ikarod and Grandanite Doragan ambushed the Crowns as they were able to sneak in.

Many of Destiny's strongest fighters who survived the Uninvolved Lands were also assigned to take out many others.

The plan of him ambushing those who were to ambush the arriving fleet had worked, and their initial volley of attack eliminated many warriors of Destiny.

They sent attacks and slew many of the most prominent members of the Midland Kingdoms who were key members of the future betrayals and those who would serve the Eldrich.

But this attack was a desperate attack to save the falling forces of the Eldrich. Nightwing was forced to reveal his location too early. His perception and Wisdom were greatly lowered, and even the timing of his attack was too flawed.

Though they had such a great start, the powers of End quickly appeared and worked against them.

Nightwing felt a great hindrance in his fighting ability that he couldn't even make a good decision in his battle.

In their battle, they were quickly surrounded as many fighters of the Midlands appeared behind them and to the side.

Mechiel and Scarlet even intervened and tried to secretly help Nightwing. But the decisions of Nightwing didn't make any sense to Mechiel and Scarlet. If it were Kyros, he would have understood the intention. The result was that the forces that Mechiel and Scarlet manipulated with their beauty ended up clashing with the forces of Nightwing!

"The curses of Nightwing are too strong." Mechiel frowned as the chaos caused the forces of Nightwing to lose ranks.

Krysta, Sheolrah, Monica, and Angelian were all called to move closer.

The four women didn't understand Nightwing's decision but knew that Nightwing was acting in fear.

"Master Nightwing! Send us to the front!" Krysta argued.

"You could die!"

"And you're not thinking straight! The attacks were too early, and now we are surrounded! Mechiel and Scarlet's plans are backfiring because of it! Allow my father to command the army!"

But then, several Crowns began to appear over the heavens.

A combination of Crown attacks was shot toward the location where Nightwing was!

Ikarod and Grandanite were elsewhere and saw the attack and cursed.

But at that moment, a strange power returned.

Daradiel had released his powers and sent them out. He bestowed the power to all who were owners of his Code.

The Celestial Code rippled, and Nightwing sensed it.

All of a sudden, Kyros appeared.

"Just in time! My plan worked!" Kyros laughed as the Celestial Code returned to him.

The elements heeded his power, and his sword appeared.

A clear Crown appeared over him.

"[Celestial Shield]! [Star Severing Slash]!"

A shield blocked one attack, and a slash was sent to another.

The shield manifested and blocked the Crown's attack causing it to explode over the fighting forces.

The attacks of a powerful Crown could clear mountains and change the terrain. The massive clash of powers instantly slew Commanders, and Cardinals were injured from the explosion of the attacks.

The other slash sent out a cutting path that slashed through the grounds killing many along the way.

"The Curse is far worse than I estimated." Kyros sighed.

Krysta sensed the change.

"Kyros?"

"Yeah. Nightwing has it rough. But this was necessary. I had to force him out to defeat so that we could claim victory at the right time. I trusted Fate would do something to help, and by the look, it's working. I'll cast one last spell before I leave." Kyros harnessed the power of the Celestial Paladin.

"[Celestial Guard]! [Blood Recovery]! [Might Aura]!" Kyros used the strongest spell and buffs that he could use. With the full return of the Celestial Code and how Daradiel was able to channel out the power through Exodia, Nightwing finally received the great blessing spells!

"Destiny never knew all of these abilities! So even with End, these abilities should be able to allow us to win!"

The spells blessed all of Nightwing's first allies and those who were true of Fate.

"This battle is meant to kill all of Destiny's forces that Nightwing recruited. So naturally, it will endanger you. Fight and live!" Kyros ordered as the light vanished and Nightwing regained control.

"DAMN HIM!" Nightwing roared in anger as he flew up.

"Killian! Take command of everyone! You're the leader now!" Nightwing had no choice but allowed Killian Sword Saint to be the leader.

"Understood!" Killian answered and leaped to the sky as he slashed out an incoming Cardinal. Then, with Might Aura, Killian felt his powers increase by thirty percent, which gave him enough raw force to challenge the coming Cardinal.

SLASH!

"Angelian! Fight and clear a path out! We're moving out of this place! Sheolrah, send your forces at the back to fight the hordes of Scarlet and Mechiel! Monica and Krysta support Angelian!" Killian gave a series of orders to restore the organization of his forces.

Back in the Fortress, Daradiel could sense how his fusion with Exodia allowed his energy to be summoned and drawn out.

"Good! Just in time... Branze! I can send some of your men to warp towards where the Nephilim is! Who shall go? I will also- who is that? Is that a Shaman Queen?!" Daradiel was amazed as he saw a woman who was slashing and attacking Mezal.

"Ermm... Ignore them. It's just an old married couple resolving some things. In any case, we Emberdons should move out." Triona spoke. She was terrified of the Shaman Queen and had been flirting with Mezal numerous times. Would she be the next scratching post of the Shaman Queen? She knew that she had no authority to evade as this woman was the Matriarch of the Steele Family!

"Are you sure? Someone has to stay here. I can sense several powers opening. Numerous meteors will fall into the Planesworld as the other planets have noticed the disappearance of the barrier. They will send a first wave! And I plan to bring them here. You all will be forced to fight beyond your capabilities, but I can see that this Fortress is well-equipped!"

"Hm? In that case, The Emberdons should stay-" Branze spoke.

"Demerus can stay here! All of us... women... can go to the Nephilim! That's right! Send the girls! Demerus can handle and control our experiments here, right Demerus?" Stellya added.

Faye rolled her eyes as she knew what the two were afraid of.

Branze gave them a meaningful look but accepted.

"Fine. Our mages are strong enough to fight anyway. I guess father and mother could stay here. Daradiel, send my wife and me along with the women Embderdons. We wish to aid in the massacre in the Midlands."

"Alright." Exodia closed its palms in prayer.

The power of Celestial energy began to appear as a portal opened up.

"Go! Aid the Nephilim!"

The women Emberdons charged in, and the portal closed.

"Prepare for war! I will move the Unholy Mist to be concentrated on the sides. The weak amount left will disperse. So I plan to move it to surround this place and seal any means of escape. This will force us to fight the army. Are you ready?"

"Army of the Nephilim, are you ready?" Branze called out.

The nearly two hundred warriors who guarded the Fortress all cheered bravely.

"Good! Now it's time to awaken my Code! The power of the Celestial shall appear once more! Planets who invade the Planesworld! Be warned! For Yggdrasil has a new ally! As the Planesworld kept me alive, I will keep it alive! You chose to fall as stars! Then fall into this place! Astra! As you have borrowed my powers, I call on yours! Let the stars fall! Let it fall here in this place to be food to this Unholy abode! Be the whetstone to sharpen the sword of the Nephilim!"

Demerus heard the Word of Power and could feel an immense power surge out.

Daradiel took control of the Fortress and caused the Unholy mist around the area to surround the place and prepared a clear sky above to welcome the falling stars.

"Prepare for battle! Deploy the Golem and the Gunpla!" Demerus ordered as he flew over his flying ship, and the Wings of the Nephilim squadrons appeared.

Cannons, ballistas, and many other weapons of war were being prepared at the side.

Daradiel harnessed his Code, and Exodia wielded it.

"Falling Stars that rain down! Fall to this pit! Fall into this trap! Fall to your deaths! I, Greater God Daradiel, will slaughter you!" Daradiel declared, and with his Word of Power, the many magics that were sent by the nearby planets to send meteors which they would ride to enter the Planesworld, were now being drawn into the Unholy pit where the Fortress stood!
