Omega Summoner

Chapter 594 - Asmodian’s Sacrifice

"I will destroy this tower. Use the chance when I overload the magic crystal in that platform to escape. It will disable the magic that prevents teleportation. I will burn my remaining life for that to happen. I can feel that the curse is already spreading. The tower must fall." Cain stated as his right arm started changing color as if being infected by something,

Adrian saw that Cain's arm suddenly became infected by something. Blisters and grotesque boils suddenly started to grow on his right arm. He could see that the curse that did not propagate is now hurriedly.

"Your arm! Can we do something about it? Maybe if I apply chronomancy." Adrian stated but Cain stopped what he was attempting.

"It is too late. The curse has become too powerful from all the years that it could not move. Even if you came a hundred years early, I would still die because of the curse. This curse is much like my brother's, but it will make me a mindless slaughterer instead.

I would rather die with my mind still intact instead of dooming this world. I already gave you everything that you need to know. All you need to do is escape this place and carry out my will. I have lived for far too long in a cage being tortured.

It is now time for me to rest as I want to finally be free from pain and suffering. I want this to happen because I am sure that even you will want to finally rest if you end up dealing with what I have experienced." Cain stated as he activated a magic circle and grafted it on his body.

Adrian knew that he could not tell Cain to think about the future because the latter already made up his mind. He will die even if he chooses to live longer because the curse is eating up his life force and soul. Cain is igniting his very soul in order to fight off the curse that is spreading like an infection.

"Be careful in future as being an Asmodian is more than meets the eye. You will learn more about us when you enter the grave. I should not spoil your fun as the transgressors are already here." Cain stated as he looked at the teleportation magic circle finally losing light.

Bishop Bright arrived with a happy face, but it soon turned into a frown as he saw Cain out of his shackles and another demon that snuck past them. The fact that a demon manages to sneak inside the tower because the Envoy of Light is not there is unacceptable.

The Church of Light might be called the purifying ones but that also takes effect upon their failures. If Bishop Bright does not solve this dilemma, then it would be his head on the chopping block. Just because he knows of the true origin of the high ranked officials of the Church of Light will not make him escape the purge.

"Everyone! Kill them. Activate the magic circle and send everyone here! The demons should not be powerful enough yet as he just broke free. Kill the small one first and collect his blood next!" Bishop Bright shouted his orders which made the two priest and two paladins that came with him go in battle mode.

"I have been meaning to repay you for the years of torture that I experienced from you. It is just a shame that you will die before I even see your face in agony. It is a good thing that I will take you to the grave with me.

People like you should not be alive in this world. You call yourself a warrior of justice, yet you are not paying attention to your own deeds. If you ever get resurrected, be sure to do better in your next life. Then again, you do not even worship the goddess of life." Cain stated as the magic circle that he grafted on his body started to glow brighter.

Cracks started to appear on Cain's body as if it was made of clay. His whole body is turned into a bomb that will destroy the tower. At first, Adrian thought that Cain might blow up the whole town, but he would not do that you the area once ruled by his brother.

He loved his brother too much for him to just erase something that bears his name. The paladins and priests tried hurling spells at Cain, but nothing happened as it only fueled his spell faster. Cain is going to make his core explode. An organ like thing inside his body that deals with his magic casting and abilities.

Adrian knows of this technique as it is a last resort for demons or beings that have magic cores in their bodies. If they did this, then only their soul but also their entire being will be erased without leaving a trace. Cain thought this through as he does not want his body to become a lab experiment if they find his dead body.

"I shall show you all the true meaning of light." Cain stated with a smile of gratification. He feels that he has done everything that he can and should be given the chance to rest. 

"You dare, demon!" Bishop Bright shouted loudly as he used every spell in his arsenal to protect himself.

"Charon, use Soul Prison." Adrian commanded as Charon took Adrian, Sirius and Kanlaon inside of the coffin. Adrian knew that Charon will not survive the blast and the undead also knew that. It was actually Charon that brought the idea.

Even if Adrian uses Soul Form Manifestation to become an incorporeal ghost, he will still die from the blast. Anything that uses the soul as a catalyst will inevitably hit. This is why magic that uses the souls of others is taboo because the price is too steep.

Charon did not even wait for Adrian to command him as it already attached chains on the body of the three and pulled them inside of the coffin. The whole room is suddenly covered in a bright light and every individual inside of it got swallowed by this light.

-----

The tower suddenly started to shake and rumble. The priests and paladins that are working inside the tower felt it shake. This was the first time that they experienced the tower to shake because it never does. Even if Abelport gets hit by a strong earthquake, the tower will stand tall as a symbol of power and dignity.

"Did anyone feel that?" One of the priests asked as the document he is writing suddenly had ink blots over it.

"I felt that too, but it probably is just the demon being tortured. Maybe his death triggered something and made the tower shake." One of the paladins stated as this was the first time for him to experience that as well.

The priests and paladins did not think much of the tower shaking until it became continuous. They suddenly started to panic and ran outside of the tower, but it is already too late. The floor that they walked upon started to glow and crumble because of an intense rush of energy below it.

The priests and paladins that are inside the tower are all swallowed by the light. At the very least, they got killed by what they are believing in as it is light that ended their life. The situation outside of the tower could not be different as a strong earthquake could be felt by all of the people that are in Abelport.

All of the people inside of establishments went outside so that they will not get crushed if the buildings crumble. All of the people at Abelport then saw the tower that is safeguarded and the location of the Church of Light starting to crack.

The cracks that could not be seen before spread across the tower like a snake. Soon, light started pouring out of the cracks and the tower started to crumble without any warning. The tower did not immediately fall but a beam of light shot out of it and cleared the skies.

The light looked like a beacon which made the citizens of Abelport think that it must be the Church of Light doing something like a festival or a warning signal. The citizens are then shocked when they saw that the tower crashing down after the beam of light disappearing.

All of the guards, paladins and priests immediately went to the area of the tower when they saw the tall structure suddenly come crashing down. The whole town of Abelport did not immediately panic but unrest has settled in their hearts.

The next thing that happened made them look with disbelief. From the rubble that was once the tower, a figure suddenly shot up from the sky. The figure had wings that are a mix of a dragon and a bat while being surrounded by two other figures.

The winged figure is surrounded by a silhouette of a dragon and a wolf. The citizens of Abelport all exclaimed their surprise as this is the first time that they have seen something like this.
