Chapter 245 Agatha, The Ex-Sword Of Archangel Michael
Even with all the knowledge it gained from the timeline, the Draco Galarian Beta couldn't even understand what type of seal it was but considering Azzy and Claire's good relationship, it thought the seal might be a capture kind.
While the beast couldn't control Claire's movements in a precise manner, it can still give orders on attacking, dodging, or changing the targets. In this case, it ordered Claire to fly towards it.
Unfortunately, the seal was created by the Reaper. Once it was locked on the person, there was no escape. While she was in mid-air, the seal struck her back, disappearing into her body, invading her mindscape.
It was a world of a floating island amidst the clouds where it is full of vegetation. A sword with two invisible chains around its blade was placed in the middle of the floating island.
One of the chains suddenly broke into pieces and the sword started to roam around in its world like a little kid until it sensed something strange. It connected its mind with its host's soul. Upon realizing the situation, it started to shiver in anger and an angry roar escaped from it.
"Preposterous." Golden energy erupted from its blade, illuminating all over its world.
Back to the real world, the Draco Galarian Beta sensed a disconnection from Claire's mind as her golden aura suddenly thickened by a lot. The beast deeply frowned inside, "platinum grade? No, it's far powerful than a normal platinum grade."
Before it proceeded with its next move, all of a sudden, Claire closed her eyes and stretched her hand above her head with her palm facing the skies. <strong>"I summon the Sacred Pillars of Light."</strong>
Agatha, the awakened sword of Archangel Michael unleashed one of the techniques that can be used when Descent of Heavenly Guardian is activated. The attack was very instant. The moment the possessed Claire unleashed the technique, all of her soul power was reduced to zero while a beam of light descended from the skies onto the beast. Her soul power was restored to full instantly before it fell to zero as the second beam of light struck the beast.
The first beam pierced its right-wing. While the Draco Galarian Beta was falling, the second beam pierced its neck. Before it fell on the ground, six more beams of light pierced its neck, body, and tail.
With Claire's low rank, their strength wasn't great and barely compared to the level of a high-rank-6 attack, but still, the beast was greatly injured by the light beams as they effectively hit its vital points, especially the fourth one that pierced its body went as deep as to pierce its heart.
Leah who just sent energy clones to beat up the Draco Galarian Alpha couldn't help but turn her head towards the other beast that crashed onto the ground while letting out a piercing cry.
"Platinum grade?" She also sensed the presence of an additional platinum-grade beast in the group, aside from the skeletons. Instantly, the story she read a week ago hit her memory, triggering a change in her facial expression, "she managed to unlock a seal. What did she do?"
Hearing her words, the Excalibur resting in her mindscape mumbled to himself, "No doubt. It is the work of Lord Tezca. It must be. What is his name in this life again, yeah, it's Lord Chronos now… I should stop using the previous name and get familiar with the new one."
Meanwhile, the Draco Galarian Alpha, whose mouth was forced to shut by Izarok, once again used energy eruption to cause a heavy explosion and push away everything around it.
Along with Izarok, the two energy clones that made their halfway towards their target were caught in it and got blasted away. Thankfully for Leah, she's out of the range. So, she was completely fine and her attention shifted back to her opponent.
Conjuring a purple energy sword in her hands, Leah pushed her leg against the ground and dash forward. The energy clones also managed to get a footing on the ground and joined her. On the way, she sent an order to Izarok to enter the beast's mouth and destroy it from inside. Izarok extended its legs and leaped towards the beast.
It was at that moment, the Draco Galarian Alpha suddenly disappeared from Leah's eyes, fusing itself with the Draco Galarian Beta, returning to its original form as the latter cannot be merged with it because of the light beams.
However, in the next second, the Draco Galarian realized that it made the stupidest decision of the century.
"Argh…" Not only the pain wasn't reduced even a little bit, but the beams of light also continued to pin in down to the ground even after the beast returned to its original form.
The beast thought it would become free when fused together but it didn't happen as it thought. No matter how much it struggled, the Draco Galarian couldn't move an inch. The possessed Claire let out a peal of laughter and spoke, "Indeed, a beast, in the end, is a beast no matter its strength and grade."
She then flapped the wings and slowly landed before the pinned beast, looking directly into its eyes, "These sacred pillars descended directly from the Silver City, you fool. A sinner like you can never hope to break the restrictions."
"From Silver City?" The Draco Galarian started to become panic. It knew the place its enemy was talking about is the home of Angels.
"It's been a while, Agatha." The possessed Azzy opened his mouth, drawing her attention towards him.
The familiar yet terrifying voice made Claire jump on her feet in fright for a second before she turned her head and looked at Azzy. When their eyes meet, it shuddered in fear for a moment before she averted her eyes away.
As a spirit from heaven who witnessed several things, Agatha could sense the Protos Energy as well as Death Energy inside Azzy. While the Protos Energy angers her, the Death Energy is the one that is forcing her to stay silent, thinking of the two gods that possessed it. So, she was cautious as she asked, "Have we met before?"
"How long has it been? 10 million years?" The Reaper replied vaguely instead of giving a direct answer. He talked as if he was going down a memory line, "The last time we met is when you poked Zeus' butt and was taught a lesson by your bitter rival."
Suddenly, realization dawned upon her and she greeted him with a kowtow, "Thank you for releasing me, O' Great one, the Divine Lord of Death and Time."
"Agatha, I released you partially on the account of my host's relationship with your host. This is where my help ends. The rest will be followed according to Michael's wishes." The Reaper replied to her and before he gets a response from the other party, he told her that they will talk later. Seeing Leah running towards them, Agatha no longer spoke and stayed silent.
