Chapter 895 – The First Nephilim
"Yes. The First Nephilim liked the Asmodians more than the angels which is why she had a high position in their community. She was one of the three that was tasked to escape with the slab that separated the barrier of the mortal and the divine realm.
She also suffered heavy wounds from pursuers from the followers of the dark gods. In the end, she fell into a deep slumber, and we are the ones who protect her. Her care takers had already passed onto the afterlife, but the God of Death Abaddon assured us that the two Nephilim sisters will find a soul worthy to carry the mark to wake her up." Rikbiel stated.
"Can I see her?" Adrian asked but he was suddenly aimed with vast killing intent that Sirius, Kimat and Kanlaon flew out of his body.
Adrian's soulbounds knew that their master was being targeted. This was a hidden function only available to summoners with deep affection towards their soulbound. The two Fallen were shocked when they found out that Adrian was a summoner as they only knew one Asmodian summoner back then.
He was strange even amongst the Asmodians that do not tie themselves to others when it comes to power. The Asmodian that created the summoning magic system as he felt that he was lonely. The very first summoner who was only known as the Alpha Summoner.
"Are you the inheritor of the Alpha Summoner?" Pahaliah asked as the two's bloodlust suddenly dissipated upon witnessing the power that the soulbounds released. The energy they released was similar to the power of the Asmodian summoner.
"Alpha Summoner? I am the inheritor of the Omega Summoner. That is what his soul has told me at least. He just buzzed me this job class after I said yes. Let me tell you, the headache was not a pleasant experience." Adrian replied with a slight joke to lighten the mood.
"Omega Summoner…I see. No wonder. That should be the case." Pahaliah muttered as he looked at Adrian then looked at Rikbiel as if he got a realization.
"Why are you interested in the slab? Even if you are an inheritor of a great being of the past, you will be eliminated if your answer is not correct." Rikbiel stated but he did not release bloodlust.
"Little Brother, answer the four headed creep and the three floating rings already." Solstice whispered.
"I am asking because I have one of the pieces, but I cannot see its function or description even with my evil eyes." Adrian stated as he took out a slab that is in the shape of an imperfect triangle.
The slab that Adrian owns has the carvings of the roots of the Tree of Life and Death. He already asked the Tree of Life and Death about it and was told that the carvings are its own image. Adrian could even feel that the Tree of Life and Death was a bit haughty and embarrassed when it praised itself as the model for the key that separated the realms.
"He has earned the right to know." Pahaliah stated as he looked at Rikbiel.
"He has. To think that a heavy burden has been passed down to you as well. You must protect that slab with all your life. If the followers of the dark gods know that you have that then you will be hunted down to the ends of the world. You must never bring it out from your personal space unless you are in a place where energy does not leak out." Rikbiel stated with a sigh.
"So…does anyone want to take the slab from me?" Adrian turned and asked Solstice and Lycan.
The two just moved a bit away and did not look Adrian on the eye. Adrian turned towards the two Fallen but they also looked away with all their might despite having multiple eyes. Adrian could only think that this burden has been placed on him, but it is not like he will take out the slab from his inventory.
"Do not tell me that you are going to force me to take the slab from the first Nephilim?" Adrian suddenly muttered as he felt a bigger headache coming his way.
"No! We would never dare. Rather, we cannot give it to you because of a special circumstance." Pahaliah stated.
"Let us show you." Rikbiel stated as the two Fallen suddenly emitted a bright light.
The light filled the surroundings and blinded Adrian, Solstice and Lycan. They closed their eyes due to the harsh light. When they opened their eyes, they can only gasp at the sight before them. Seven individuals were currently trapped in a weird plant.
The weird plant has a bulb made of light the other parts are vines. Connected to this weird plant in the middle is a beautiful woman that had the wings of an angel and demon. She was the First Nephilim that Pahaliah and Rikbiel were talking about. Adrian could feel his blood jump as he knew that this woman indeed has Asmodian, and demon blood like him.
"You are telling that they hid everything from sight just using light." Solstice muttered as this application of light magic is masterful to the point of being godlike.
"Why are the others connected to her?" Lycan asked.
"She is very wounded, and we are using the Lumen Miraclus Plant to share her pain. Only six of us can take turns but she is not waking up nor getting healed fully. We are barely keeping her alive. Even temporal magic cannot reverse the effects of her state. We also tried a relic back then, but it was not effective since it was one of the most power dark gods that inflicted her with her wounds." Pahaliah stated in a sad tone.
"What is her name?" Adrian asked.
"Her name? She is none other than the First Nephilim, Lilith. She has angel blood and Asmodian demon blood in her veins which is why she could master both elemental and arcane magic to perfection.. It did come at the cost of her own health and life."
