TRAILING SHADOWS 8 Power Overload

He exhaled now. He appeared like he had been pushing himself to the limit since when all he had done was to study the Wolf

Still, Surprisingly, this wolf still held out against the combined efforts of himself and the other irunmoles in Ilu Obatala.

In distances, he could see the shimmering energy essence of Irunmoles fading into nothingness. He felt sickened on the inside.

Was this fate occurrence so huge that it was going to wipe out the whole Ilu Obatala?

So huge that even the G.o.ds had stopped replying.

He shook his head slowly, sizing the cloud of dust and exploding energies infront of him. It wasn't that he was scared.

No, with the power of Transcendency flowing through him, he could go on with the beast singlehandedly.

But so far, he had had to limit himself severely to reduce the damage he dealt out. And so far, the wolf had dealt even exceedingly horrifying damage.

Just then, Anu's right foot drove into the ground, shattering the already hardened ground into dust and sand. She phased into presence now, standing beside Elder. Her entire body was flowing with ma.s.sive pseudo demi G.o.d cla.s.s essence, making her body seem to be vanishing and appearing. Shooting out slivers of warm energy.

"Anu, shey o wa pa(1)?" Elder asked, genuinely concerned with wrinkled brows as he turned his head.

"Am I okay" Anu yelled, annoyance rocking her tone. "Oh, so, you can ask if I'm okay now?She retorted, beating her b.r.e.a.s.t.s at each word, but yet, you went out with low cla.s.sed irunmoles. And you have the guts to ask if I am okay."

"Once we are done from here, I promise you, Elder, You will see my true colors. Who do you think you are to be putting all of us at this strain? How dare you, Elder, How dare you?" Anu trembled, pointing a finger at her Elder.

"Anu, lets…"

"No, how dare you?"Anu blurted, flashes of silvery energy dissipating into s.p.a.ce accompanied by an outburst of reinforced Pseudo-demiG.o.d Aura.

The howl of the wolf sounded once more in response to the outburst accompanied with fierce eruptions of concussion winds.

She looked forward now, visibly trying to comport herself.

Why was she surrounded by idiots? Why her?

What had she done?

Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed all about. As it did, Anu's form shivered, phasing in and out of existence.

Sighing, she shot her frame mightily into the air, like a torpedo launching with precision towards it target. Following her ascent, winds bellowed with great impetus, washing over what remained of the forest.

"INO AGBARA: ALMIGHTY FIST OF DESTRUCTION" Anu's voice rumbled mightily.

Leaning to her right, Anu pulled her left hand backwards as far as she could. Instantly, a wispy ball of light energy appeared in front of her fists.

In another split second, the ball fused into her hand, enveloping her left fist to her shoulder. She dashed through the air, roaring with vicious might.

As she did, a depressing force overtook the atmosphere, severely limiting her impetus. Still, she pushed on, physical exertion visible on her face. Anu raised an elbow forward to block the repellant force.

The shielding arm began to take on a vibrant white hue, forming an atmospheric shield.

"Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh…" She yelled, rode through the air resistance.

Just then, a flash of heavily dense aura blasted through, cutting through the heavy focrefield that was about the wolf. Anu's ma.s.s burnt through the air in a shimmer of silvery light.

BOOM..

A shockwave resounded upon impact.

Energy began to drain to her shoulder and then, to her fist as it crushed into the wolf's head, driving it into the ground.

Aaaaahhhhh....

She yelled, more energy concentrating as her fist dug deeper and deeper, forcing the wolf's head further into the ground.

A webwork of cracks appeared.

The Wolf whined angrily and striking out it's ma.s.sive paw forward bat off Anu to the side.

That same minute, golden chains shot out, easily ripping through the inert forcefield of the wolf from behind Anu who was still tumbling down. It had Golden arrow heads at it's too, giving it a deadly sensation. The chains clanged noisily as it dug into the flesh of the wolf with its edges.

"Creation Agabara: Heaven's Chain!" Elder's voice rocked the air.

The chains wrapped around the wolf, squeezing and strangling it in process. As it did, the dust cleared and Elder appeared in the midst of it, holding Anu with one hand whilst holding on to the chains with the other. His staff stood, stuck into the ground beside Anu.

"The very chains used by Obatala -King of the white cloth to descend down into Aiye"

Veins began to stretch across his face. Apparently, he was using a very strong skill. Summoning an artefact using creation Agabara.

Creation Agabara was one herculean feat already that could tear apart an Irunmole. Yet First Prime had used it to summon an artefact, ...

No, not an artefact.

Elder had just summoned the weapon of a G.o.d. The Golden chains of Obatala.

Sparks spluttered out of the golden chains, filling up the air with more electricity and heat as it burned deep into the wolf body.

"Retract" Elder clenched his fist.

BOOOOM...boom.. boom boomm

The chain links interlocked , Sparks of golden light flickered as it shortened in length, dragging the wolf closer. Within the seconds, the distance between Elder and The wolf was just mere inches.

Elder's hand flickered, dashing off to the staff and the next.

BOOM.

Steel tore into flesh as the length of the staff drove into the head of wolf.

BOOMM...

A forcefield quaked through the air materialising from Anu's uppercut to the impaled p.r.i.c.kled Bane Winged Wolf.

The ma.s.s of the wolf hurtled through the dense atmosphere away from the Primes. It's wings flaied as the hole created by the staff began to cover up, it'sred eyes turning darker now.

Red lines stretched across the breadth of the wolf, giving it a demonic presence as it gained balance in the air.

Boom

Booom

Boom

Boom

Boom!

Five Alpha Irunmole leapt up from the ground, their aura over clouding the demonic presence of the wolf. Within seconds, they descended, readying their fists for impact.

"Alpha Circle: Alpha Combo" The Alphas thundered simultaneously

BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM....

Fire leapt out in a huge circle encompa.s.sing the wolf as it plummeted down into the dust below.

Humph!

Humph!!

Sunday gasped as he arrived the battle scene, with bent back and hands on the knees. Hearing the huge explosion, he jerked his head up noting the huge ma.s.s of the Rare Cla.s.sed Beast falling down.

"No, no, no... (Humph)This is my Fight..(humph)...MINE. AND MINE ALONE" He screamed, forcing whatever energy he had left into his legs as he ran forward.

Just a little more. Just a little more, he told himself.

Meanwhile, Elder waved his staff in a semi circle clearing off the dust particles that fluttered about. The veins that had stretched on his face were now gone, enforcing his celestial look of 1st Transcendency.

"I could have taken you all out but I needed to understand you. Why you showed in here.

But you..." He spat aside.

"But you... You have overstepped your boundaries. I am THE First Prime of the entire ilu-orun, The Elder. And today, you have defied me."

Elders armor glittered even more, radiating light and heat with every word he spoke

The wolf saw this too, streams of red lines crisscrossing about it's already scarred body. It snorted, then growled. it's body took a grayish hue as it solidified, thickening it's already stout body.

"Ah, I see. You've decided to step it up." Anu grunted.

She burst forward, booming past Elder in a flurry of energy and blinding light.

"But not for long"

Materialising now, she reached for the neck of the 15m tall Rare Cla.s.sed Beast, only for it to move back suddenly.

Anu blinked.

Then she gasped as a huge clump of rock materialised above her and latched onto the hand she had struck out.

It moved around, twirling as a snake would slitter in the gra.s.s, encompa.s.sing her whole arm in mere seconds.

She grunted as she shook her hand, breaking the stone clamp into tiny granites.

"You insult me, beast." Anu yelled as striking out her left fist in response.

"d.a.m.nit" she muttered, jumping 10metres backwards.

She looked up into the air, where a ma.s.sive beast bomb was swirling dangerously

Elder paused his eyes wary as a huge clump of rock materialised latching onto the hand that had held the staff.

It moved around, twirling as a snake would slitter in the gra.s.s, encompa.s.sing her whole arm in mere seconds.

Lightning flashed about accompanied by thunder as stress points suddenly appeared on the rock mould and the next second, the whole mould shattered, falling down as dust and granites.

The air around Elder intensified once more, returning the full might of Transcendency. He kept on walking, each step, sending cracks along the impact point.

"First Prime..." Anu's voice cut of Elder's focus as he looked back.

"What?"

"Allow me.." She replied, flapping her wings as she hovered off the ground.

Her eyes flashed, body blurred and a concussion wind boasted, brushing across Elder. She tore through the air empowered by the Heavens Armor skill that she had, ready to wipe out the vile creature before her.

And she was leaving nothing to chance.

"Creation Agbara: Judgement Seal"

s.p.a.ce flickered, a whip storm of dust and debris, the ground cracked as Anu covered up the distance, revealing steaming hot lava underneath.

The lava reacted itself, rising as if being controlled , like a wave, spewing heat and molten magma about.The magma rose like hands and latched onto the huge beast bomb above.

Pulling it downwards as it attempted to swallow the bomb whole.

Anu's hands turned fists as she drew back, ready to pounce.

"Heavens Might";She chanted, beads forming across the width of her fist.

All of this happening in mere seconds.

Faster than the Wolf could react

She slammed.

Just as she did, Maerius jerked up from the ground, eyes beaming as he rose up to his knees.

His eye widened.

"No, no,no no... Noooooo..." He muttered, shaking his head as he clenched on to the dust below.

"2nd Prime, how can you be so careless."

As he spoke , explosions rang forth, as the wolf buckled, crumbling into the magma below it. Multiple concussions erupted clearing off anything in a 50 metre range. More blobs of white began ascending, a sign that more Irunmole had been destroyed in the aftermath.

But that wasn't what had gotten him muttering...

It was something else.

Rather someone else.

Seconds later, the whole explosion suddenly began contracting...

Just as if time itself was reversed, each particle began reverting... Back to it's original spot.

No, not back...

Suddenly, he felt a pull on himself. It was nothing that he had ever felt. Extreme force along side with ma.s.sive heat. pulling him towards the center of the explosion.

FWOOOOOOOOOMMMMM....

"Aaaaaaaaaarrrggghhhhhhh...."

Suddenly, the force vanished.

He gathered himself together, crounchin on one knee. Then he stretched out his hand to summon his blade. He reached for it, feeling once more the solidity of his most trusted weapon.

BOOOM...

Maerius was flung into the he air, blade and owner in separate directions. He gasped as some rocked sharpnel tore into his sides and arm, tiny streams of white energy appearing before vanishing into nothingness.

Maerius flailed his hands trying to grip something to no avail. Seeing how unsuccessful he was, he bent lower, grabbing both knees before flipping backwards to the ground.

Nearing the ground, he struck out his hands to steady the impact he was going for. Quickly he swerved around to watch the scene of the attraction .

And what he saw, made him gasp him, fear visibly written across his face.

In the place where the wolf stood, was something else.

No, not something else.

Someone Else.
