Omega Summoner

Chapter 1191 Who Is The Real Angel?

Nurarihyon eyed Adrian as he wants to battle a being filled with death energy. Yokais are being that treat death energy as a delicacy as they are made of it as well. They will often target those that are living as they can partially transform life energy into death energy but that process often takes months.

Even the other yokai are looking at Adrian with eyes full of greed but they needed to adhere to the commands of their commander. Adrian did not sit idly as the area is flooded with yokais since something flared inside him to defeat them.

[You are in the presence of numerous Yokai.]

[They are beings that should not exist in this physical world because they are made with death energy.]

[You are the Shepherd of Lost Souls. Do your duty and send the yokai back to the underworld where they belong.]

[Your stats will increase by 10% for the duration of the fight with the Yokai.]

"Oh! I did not expect something like that." Adrian thought as he suddenly switched to his Aetheros form.

Adrian's sudden form change to a being of pure life energy shocked the yokai as they no longer feel that his energy is delicious. The yokai might like life energy so that they can turn it into death energy, but Aether Energy is different. The yokai felt some adverse repulsion from him as Adrian's life energy is too pure.

Adrian noticed that the yokai that looked at him with greed suddenly trying to get away from him. The Aether Dust that he also spread out just by flapping his wings could be seen poisonous to the yokai. Adrian smiled as he could clear out the tides of yokai as long as he can spread out his Aether Dust.

"Perfect Assimilation: Saena!" Adrian muttered as he has chosen Saena to fused with.

[You have gained the skill: Healing Wind.]

Saena suddenly turned into a spirit that fused with Adrian's body. A powerful bright holy light exploded when they fused together. The Aether Dust that spread out suddenly turned into pure white feathers that danced in the wind. He only got one skill from her and that is the healing skill which is greatly paired with the Aetheros form.

Everyone looked at the fused form of Adrian and Saena with shock as they have never seen a being that could be perfectly described as holy. Adrian's white and blue hair could be seen changed to that of feathers. The four wings behind Adrian that had the appearance of a cosmos suddenly became bigger and grew white feathers that shined in holy light.

The color aesthetic of the Aetheros clothes matched perfectly with Saena's Assimilation. Adrian looked what an angel should look like compared to White that is an actual angel. What he did not expect is that a certain jealous goddess be looking down on his current location.

[The Goddess of Light Luminaria is angry at the form that you have taken because it defiles the form of her beautiful angels.]

[The Goddess of Light Luminaria tried to apply a curse on you, but you are not affected.]

[The Goddess of Light Luminaria is shocked that her curse did not affect you and wonders why.]

Adrian knows why he is not affected by the curse and that is the fact that he is the Champion of the Twin Gods. A fun fact that he learned of those chosen by gods is that they cannot be affected by lesser curses done by other gods. In order for them to be affected, the gods or goddess must apply a curse equivalent or more powerful than the blessing that they are given.

"You should do better!" Adrian shouted in the air.

When Adrian said that phrase, a powerful flash of light could be seen in the sky as if a god or goddess wanted to smite a mortal. The whole world saw that bright flash of light and only thought of it as a person triggering a world quest or something.

"You should not look away from a fight boy!" Nuraruhyon stated as he suddenly slashed towards Adrian.

Adrian casually lifted his scythe that now has the appearance of a golden jade scythe to block the attack. He could feel the heavy hit that Nurarihyon did, but his adjusted stats made it easier to block it. The Aether Feather Dust that is scattered in the area also weakened the yokais which made Nurarihyon's attack be bearable for Adrian.

Adrian might be having an easier time, but the other players are not. Adrian is well protected by his soulbounds from the yokai which is why the only one he is directly facing is Nurarihyon. Eldritch and Seam are facing a collection of forty yokais. The same number is present for Hou Yiwei and White, but they fare better than Eldritch and Seam.

White can use holy magic which deals a great amount of damage to yokais because the Church of Light views them as malevolent spirits. With her purifying holy light, they can weaken any yokai that attacks them. Eldritch and Seam, on the other hand, are in a tough position but they are not cornered.

"Sirius, search for Tai and finish him off. The summoning will stop as long as we kill him." Adrian stated as he commanded Sirius to defeat Tai who suddenly vanished from their vision.

"I told you to focus." Nurarihyon stated as he suddenly appeared behind Adrian to slash his back.

Adrian used his very wings as a shield, and they did not fail. Adrian's wings right now are incredibly durable due to the fact that it is the main carrier for Aether Dust. When Nurarihyon's sword and Adrian's wings clashed, the sound of metal could be heard echoing.

The yokai leader, Nurarihyon, did not expect that as he is the quickest and the most powerful of the yokai in the Night Parade of the Hundred Demons. He might be limited by Tai's power because it was him summoned them, but the latter paid a price to lift some of the restrictions. At his level of strength, he could easily blow Adrian away, but he is not able to.

"It seems that you are a tricky one. I shall deal with you later as young Tai wants to defeat all of you." Nurarihyon stated as he suddenly withdrew from his battle with Adrian.

Adrian could not believe that he was abandoned by his opponent but there are still the remaining nineteen yokais facing him. His soulbounds are doing great work battling them but they cannot land a decisive hit. The yokais seem to vey synergistic in their attacks which makes them impossible to fight or counter with a small group.

"I should not waste time. I can already escape since no one is facing me directly anyways." Adrian thought as he tried to fly away from the area, but he crashed on an invisible barrier.

As soon as Adrian tried to attack the invisible barrier with his scythe, he suddenly felt something heading towards him and immediately dodged. The thing coming for Adrian is none other than Tai's palm. Tai's attack even shook the barrier for a moment before it repaired itself. Tai did not look good as he looks like he would pass out with just a tap.

"Sorry but this soul is already headed for the afterlife. No side trips allowed." Adrian stated as he swung his scythe towards Tai, but the latter dodged with grace.

Tai might have been heavily damaged and lost a few levels for summoning the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, but he can still fight. What made Adrian a bit wary is the fact that he could not feel Tai's presence. Adrian was only able to react when his instinct kicked in which means that Tai has a way to remain undetected.

Tai once again vanished from his sight which made Adrian tense up. He made sure to pay extra attention to his surroundings as Tai is still a threat. A skill that can seal skills is not something that Adrian wants to get hit with as he is very reliant on his skills. The sound of a bell suddenly echoed around him which made Adrian decide immediately.

"Time Stop!" Adrian muttered as time suddenly froze.

When Adrian looked around, he could see a being made of clouds materialize a hand.  This hand obviously came from Tai, and he could be seen making a grabbing motion towards the Cube of Paradox. Tai wanted to steal the Cube of Paradox from Adrian or at least the Soul of Conquest that is sealed inside of it.

"Shadow Walker!" Adrian stated as his body suddenly became part of the shadows.

Adrian also cancelled the Time Stop which made Tai confused. He remembers that he is reaching for the strange weapon that houses the Soul of Conquest, but it suddenly disappeared. The next thing that Tai felt is the sharp feeling on his back as a scythe could be seen plunged onto his back.
