Chapter 1963 Stranded Survivors



-----

When Kizuato, the strongest warrior on his team woke up, he found himself in the same, fantastical scenery that Truhan and Celica had experienced. His friends were there with him, asleep, or maybe completely unconscious. The air was thick, and his mechanical armor ended breaking apart into pieces. He knew nothing about these items, and Meiji was missing, nowhere to be seen either.

"What in the world happened here…" Kizuato muttered, trying to recall the bright light that sucked them all into this world. "This is… Cough, it must be the Spirit's Plane? Their world? It is… as bright as I imagined. But the air is so thick… Ugh, and filled with energies. Hey! You guys!"

Kizuato desperately tried to wake up his friends, putting his divine swords on their sheaths as he began moving them, using basic divine healing spells, or anything on them, but aside from learning they were still breathing very weakly, he couldn't wake them up.

When he checked their Statuses, the System started failing, as if being in another world made so the System couldn't hold itself, errors and glitches appearing through his status, but he managed to catch a glimpse of something…

[Intoxicated: Spirit Energy Overdose (Paralysis, Slow Death, Soul Degradation)]

"What?!" Kizuato couldn't hold his calm any longer even in such a terrible situation. Somehow he was the only one barely capable of resisting this atmosphere, but the rest, not so much. If nothing was done about this soon, they would all die. "Shit…! You can't just die on me like this! Alright, all of you are going inside my Divine Realm for now- Ungh?!"

However, although Kizuato wasn't affected by this energy, his divine realm was, clogging itself with spiritual energy and slowly beginning to infect the rest. Perhaps not as lethal as Miasma, this energy was equally as destructive as it made everything simple explode due to overdosing on spiritual energy.

"Fuck! I can't open my Divine Realm?! You have to be fucking kidding me!" Kizuato groaned. "Now what could even go worse than this-"

"ROOOOAARRRR!"

"Right, I shouldn't had said a single thing…"

Kizuato looked behind him to face whatever beast had appeared, quickly noticing a dozen monstrosities of this world approaching. They were similar to the "soldier-type spirits" they fought before.

This time, they were much larger though, ferocious, and had the shapes of beasts, although still made of transparent crystals and light. The system messages, between glitches, showed they were called [Spiritual Beasts] and they had Ranks from 1 to 10, or even higher, and all of these beasts were Rank 5 to 8!

"I don't have any idea what those Ranks mean though." Kizuato sighed, holding both of his swords as he gently imbued energy into them, they blazed with flames and electricity. Powerful Divine Swords forged by Kireina for him. "I'll have to just get through them… I can't let them have a nibble on my friends!"

"SHAAAAAAH!!!" A huge snake-like Spirit Beast of Rank 7 jumped towards Kizuato, its body as huge as fifty meters made the entire ground tremble, as several beams of spiritual energy were fired from its crystalline body towards the brave monkey-kin!

"[Divine Blazing Thunder Blade Arts]: [Infernal Lightning Strikes]!"

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! CLAAASH!

Kizuato desperately started intercepting the blows with his two Divine Swords while parrying the beams of spiritual energy, each parry generated huge explosions in the sky, the other beasts were intimidated as the little monkey-kin was stronger than they thought.

However, their numbers surpassed him, and as he felt weakened, coupled with a System that wasn't responding properly, Kizuato was still at a heavy disadvantage.

"RAAAAH!" He roared, unleashing a powerful slash of flames and lightning against the snake, and slashing its tail, white blood oozing out of the wound as the beast furiously unleashed a beam of spiritual energy from its jaws!

"Fuck!" Kizuato knew that if he evaded, his friends behind would get blasted to smithereens! "[Divine Blazing Thunder Blade Arts]: [Lightning Infernal Cross]! RAAAAAH!" With all his might, he unleashed a cross-shaped sword technique, clashing against the mighty beam!

FLAAAAAASH!

A huge explosion of bright light spread across the entire area, as Kizuato barely regained his sight before seeing a huge snake jaw attempting to eat him whole.

"Fuck off!" Kizuato cried, channeling more of his Divine Power into his swords. "[Divine Blazing Thunder Blade Arts]: [Ascending Blazing Thunder Dragon]!"

FLUOOOSH!I think you should take a look at

His swords channeled the mighty of their power, combining together with the Blade Arts he had trained since he was recruited by Kireina and given a sword to hold and fight with, as his Blade Ki and Elements converged into a ferocious, roaring dragon made of flames and lightning!

"ROOOOAARRR!!!"

The huge dragon entered the Snake's jaws, the beast's entire body was bloated like a balloon, and then gained countless cracks as flames and lightning surged from within them!

Crack, crack…!

"GRYYYEEEHHH…!"

BOOOOOOOMMM!!!

With a loud shriek, the huge serpentine Spirit Beast exploded into countless of crystalline fragments! The weaker Spirit Beasts in the distance started eating the remains while the larger ones ignored them, glaring at Kizuato with even more hunger than before.

Five huge tiger-like spirit beasts, several unicorn-shaped ones, even a few flying wyvern-like spirit beasts appeared from the skies, brought over by the commotion of a fight.

"Shit…!" Kizuato muttered, stepping back as he extended his Aura into hands, trying to grab his friends and run away.

"GROOOAARR!"

"SHAAAAH!"

"ROOOOAARR!"

However, it was too late, as several beasts leaped towards him at the same time, the old, scarred monkey gritted his teeth, creating a barrier out of his Divine Aura and trying to see if he could tank their attacks at once!

"[Divine Moonlight Titan Axe Arts]: [Star-Splitting Slash]!"

SLAAAAAASSSH!

However, a huge black axe emerged out of the skies, descending over the three beasts at once, and slicing their bodies in perfect halves, the huge axe falling, stuck into the ground!

BAAAAAAAMMM…!

"That Axe…!" Kizuato muttered, glancing into the distance. "Celica!"

However, it wasn't just Celica that had appeared, as a huge blazing titan emerged right behind the Spirit Beasts, a huge blazing axe beheading three of them at once!

"OORRAAAAH!"

CLAAAAAASSSH…!

"Truhan!"
