Death… And Me Chapter 2795: Extinguished

Chapter 2795: Extinguished

"In the end, it had limited intelligence and could only act on instinct, especially in this situation with so many powerful souls around. It couldn't think straight. It fled as soon as it felt the presence of a Semi-Celestial, showing that it couldn't possibly fight against a being of that caliber. In the end, it can't fight against those who can change the laws in their favor."

Soul Gem's prediction was spot on. The Living Soul Devil, despite its best efforts, was still no match for the onslaught of Oshalf's attack. It desperately tried to harness all the Soul Energy it had ama.s.sed in such a short span of time, managing to hold its ground for a fleeting moment. But alas, all of its Soul Energy was swiftly devoured in that very instant. Even its unique ability to induce a loss of control over others' powers proved futile against Oshalf, sealing its fate. At the very least, it was nowhere to be seen anymore.

Soul Gem's expression eased as he took his attention away from where the Soul Devil disappeared, and a smile quickly appeared on his face.

*Boom!*

*Arrrghhh!*

Turen and Naya'il seized the moment, unleashing a devastating attack on Narka. Though Narka managed to survive, the injuries inflicted were severe, and their healing would be a prolonged process, a testament to the formidable power of the two Semi-Celestials.

"Narka!" Oshalf immediately turned around and flew back to the battlefield of the Semi- Celesitals. But it didn't change things very much. Oshalf himself was now in a weakened state, and he couldn't fight a single Semi-Celestial, let alone two.

The situation wasn't any better within the Garisan Armies either. The Living Soul Devil was able to get rid of a third of the entire contingent from Garisan. Above all, many of them were Divinity Realm and s.p.a.ce-Time Realm experts who thought they could stop the Soul Devil from killing their forces.

Last but not least, Oshalf's own attack did kill many of his people, too. He controlled his attack so it wouldn't spread too much, but hundreds of thousands of kilometers still took tens of millions down at once, and it was an attack unleashed within the Garisan Armies. Killing the Living Soul Devil came with its price.

Soul Gem and the other commanders on the back couldn't care less about the struggles Garisan was going through. They immediately ordered all their armies to change from defensive positions into full attack mode. The chaos within Garisan increased several times, and the chain of command began to collapse.

*Bang!*

Once again, Flavio exploded in anger outside the Universe. Messages asking for help and reinforcements appeared on almost all screens, and the Semi-Celestials from their side were struggling to simply stay alive. "What the h.e.l.l was that f.u.c.king thing?! Someone, answer me!" He had to do his best to not destroy the commanding room again.

And yet, the commanding room was absolutely silent. Flavio's subordinates looked in all databases, trying to find information about the Living Soul Devil. Unfortunately, the information wasn't present anywhere. "Sir... we don't have any information regarding the creature. All we can tell is that it is similar to a Soul Devil. However, it doesn't consume dead souls but living ones. Our Databases have nothing regarding it."

The screens continued to show more and more alarms. Each second, the situation got worse and worse. Flavio looked at the images and struggled to make a decision.

Suddenly, a message appeared on the main screens.

-Narka's Soul Flame has been extinguished.-

Just like the Lisan Universe, the Garisan Universe knew how to use Soul Flames. If it went out, it means its owner died. Doesn't matter where you are, it can even be another Universe altogether. The result will be the same.

"Sound the retreat! Tell them to activate the teleportations!" Flavio finally couldn't wait anymore.

"But sir, we have used the teleporting runes to clean the battlefield not long ago! The power required to teleport everyone away again within such a chaotic s.p.a.ce is too big! If we activate it now, we will probably lose at least a third of our remaining forces," someone warned Flavio.

*Slash!*

In the next moment, the one who tried to warn Flavio had its head cut off. Spatial Powers enveloped the guy's body, and it was consumed by the Fabric of s.p.a.ce. Not even his soul was spared. "Anyone else willing to question my decision?"

"No, sir!" The entire room answered.

Immediately, they went to work and pa.s.sed the orders to the s.p.a.ceships in the area. Naturally, the captains of the s.p.a.ceships were shocked to receive such an order, but none of them complained. All the s.p.a.ceships activated the Spatial Runes within the experts of Garisan in the next moments.

On the battlefield, Spatial powers covered all the remaining experts from Garisan, just like the last time.

"They can still use it?!" Jundonis was the first one to notice that the armies began to teleport away again.

However, Kafan and the others quickly noticed it wasn't like the last time. "Something is wrong. The Runes within their bodies are not like before. The Spatial Powers generated by the s.p.a.ceships seem out of order, too. If they teleport the armies in such a way..."

*Boom, boom, boom, boom...*

Everywhere within the teleported locations, many bodies began to explode as tiny Spatial Rifts sucked the bodies away. It happened once every three experts, more or less, showing that many were dying nonstop.

Back on Soul Gem's side, someone couldn't help but comment. "They are crazy!" However, Soul Gem shook his head. "No, that's the right decision. I would have done exactly the same." He pointed out. "Look at our sudden advantage. Our morale is sky-high while the enemies' ranks are in complete chaos. If they retreated normally, they would lose at least half of their forces once they turned their back to us. In that way, they are, in fact, saving more of their armies than they would with normal methods."

Soul Gem's Divine Sense quickly reached Kafan, Gragatou, and the other Semi-Celestials. 'The Semi-Celestials will definitely try to leave as well. I don't care how you do it. Make absolutely sure you keep at least one more of them behind. If possible, try to take that Fire Giant down.' All the Semi-Celesitals nodded. That was another big chance they couldn't afford to lose.

Around an hour later, another piece of information popped on the screens of the main s.p.a.ceship outside the Universe.

-Oshalf's Soul Flame has been extinguished.-
