Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 791 - 792: Lost

’Hah?’

’This voice…’

As these words entered her ears, Yumo’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and a puzzled emotion filled her. The memories in her brain flickered like a slide show, rapidly playing in Yumo’s mind.

Without a doubt, the being shrouded in black mist that appeared before her, Yumo had seen it before.

But,

This voice, Yumo had heard a few times. Although the number of times could be counted on one hand, it left the girl with an indelible memory.

Whether it was over four hundred years ago, when she first faced the human alliance’s attack; or when she sensed divine power in the Wind City; or during the battle at the Red Moon Tower...

Yumo had heard such a voice.

When the shadow power within her body was on the verge of losing control, when her will could not suppress the innate demonic instincts, all these time she lose control, that was because of this voice…

Where did this voice come from, who was speaking in her mind? Yumo had always pondered this question.

Unfortunately,

no matter how she thought about it, Yumo couldn’t come up with an answer.

And she couldn’t understand why the owner of the voice would appear before her now?! In other words, ’the voices that resonated in my mind before were not an illusion?!’

-"Just who are you?!"-

Yumo wanted to ask this question.

But, when the girl and the shadow faced each other, Yumo’s soul seemed to be devoured by those deep rainbow-colored eyes, and her trembling body couldn’t utter a single word.

Not only could she not speak, but even moving her body seemed like a distant luxury.

The surging shadow power within her body, at this moment, also miraculously entered a state of tranquility.

The girl was thus, unable to resist, like a statue, fixed to the ground. The only thing she could do was to stare wide-eyed at the person in front of her.

For a moment, an unprecedented sense of powerlessness surged within Yumo’s heart.

Just like that, under Yumo’s anxious gaze, the shadowy person slowly raised its hand.

’Is this my end?!’

Yumo’s heart let out a trembling cry, and her whole body couldn’t help but close her eyes.

However, in the next moment, the unexpected event happened again, contrary to Yumo’s expectations.

She thought that this shadowy person who appeared in this strange space was her true enemy and would launch an attack on her when she couldn’t move. But its actions were completely different from what Yumo had imagined.

The shadowy person didn’t attack, but instead pinched Yumo’s chin.

-"What are you doing?"-

’?!?!’

’Huh?’

It was a completely foreign language, but Yumo somehow managed to understand the shadow’s words.

"What am I doing?"

She understood, but why did it ask such a question? This left Yumo completely confused.

Seeing the confusion in Yumo’s eyes, the shadowy person’s rainbow-colored eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of displeasure in its cold eyes. Apparently, it was very dissatisfied with Yumo’s reaction.

-"It seems that you have completely forgotten your mission"-

’My Mission?’

’What the hell is this person talking about?!’

Yumo was becoming more confused every second.

Unfortunately, the shadowy person enshrouded in black mist had no intention of explaining.

No, strictly speaking, it chose a more straightforward and easier-to-understand method than verbal explanation.

-"Since you’ve forgotten, I’ll let you remember it properly."-

As the words fell, the person in black mist stretched out its finger and slowly placed it on Yumo’s forehead.

Feeling the coldness of its fingertip and the surrounding black fog that was constantly engulfing her, Yumo’s sense of foreboding grew stronger. She tried her best to resist, but her body seemed to be completely controlled, unable to move at all.

The anxious girl even had a few crystal-clear teardrops slowly flowing out of the corners of her eyes.

The only thing Yumo could do was to protest with her eyes.

Unfortunately, this was also useless.

Ignoring the girl’s panicked and helpless gaze, an invisible force began to surge from the shadow’s fingertip.

In the next moment,

a bizarre, multicolored black aura suddenly gushed from all directions, engulfing the black-haired girl.

—— "What the hell is this ... ..." ——

After letting out a questioning cry in her mind, Yumo’s consciousness gradually sank into the black aura’s baptism and was dragged into the boundless abyss.

Her crimson eyes gradually lost their luster, becoming lifeless and hollow.

...

...

--"I created you, not to play house. You are the Abyssal Lord, do not forget your mission."--

...

Meanwhile,

When the Pope of the Asumos Church fell into a state of complete silence,

In the sky above Anvika, there was a heated argument inside the Sky City.

After Yumo’s blood infected all the members of the allied forces in Anvika City, the Sky City became the strongest combat force left for the allied forces. With the powerful defensive ability of the Thunder Particle Shield, the swarm of Abyssal Demons posed no significant threat to the Sky City.

However,

although the Abyssal Demons had not invaded the city, the immense pressure they brought made it difficult for the people inside the city to breathe.

...

"What should we do now?! Should we retreat?!"

"How can we retreat?! The Madam is still in the city!"

"But Madam’s signal has disappeared, hasn’t it? She might have been killed by Bloody Butterfly like the others, or even turned into an Abyssal Demon. We’re still guarding here for what? Hurry up and retreat! Once the Abyssal Demons finishes dealing with the remaining troops on the ground, they’ll target us."

One of the officers, who seemed to be particularly loyal to Madam Lisa, sternly reprimanded the people in the command room.

As these words entered his ear, Bazeeburr, the executive team leader, abruptly stood up and furiously punched the table, creating a large dent.

"Enough, Kama! You’re trying to get everyone killed!"

Bazeeburr angrily questioned the officer named ’Kama’:

"The Thunder Particle Shield is powerful, but without Kadispan’s maintenance, it can’t remain open permanently like before. If it’s overloaded, the particle shield will close, and we’ll all become the Abyssal Demons’ food! Besides..."

As he spoke,

Bazeeburr furiously pointed to the huge magic power display next to him, which showed the current situation of the Asumos Church, enveloped in smoke.

"The Asumos Church, where the Madam is located, is in this state!! Who knows if Madam Lisa is still alive?! It would be better to retreat while Kael and the others are entangled with Bloody Butterfly! If we don’t retreat now, once Bloody Butterfly comes out, it will be...it will be too late..."

However, as he spoke halfway, Bazeeburr’s words became broken and disjointed.

And as the last two words came out of his mouth, Bazeeburr’s face suddenly changed, and he stared blankly at the ground with a ghastly expression.

In fact,

Not only Bazeeburr, but everyone, whether they advocated for a quick retreat or waiting for Madam Lisa’s return, fell into silence and stared intently at the screen. The image showed that, accompanied by a flash of crimson light, the dense smoke surrounding the church suddenly dissipated, revealing a desolate scene.

The magnificent Asumos Church no longer existed, leaving only a vast expanse of sand and dust, as if everything had turned to dust after the intense energy collision.

And on this desolate expanse, the black figure surrounded by crimson butterflies stood out strikingly.

"Bloody Butterfly...?"

Upon seeing Bloody Butterfly, the high-ranking officials of Sky City, including Bazeeburr, realized something ominous.

Kael, who had activated the Aggregate Star, was still defeated by Bloody Butterfly.

"Damn, useless..."

Bazeeburr couldn’t help but curse.

Then, this executive team leader anxiously looked at the pilots beside him and furiously roared, "What are you looking at?! Bloody Butterfly has come out! There’s nothing more to argue about! The entire Asumos Church has turned into that state! The Madam must be dead! We should retrea...?!?! Huh?!?!"

However,

before Bazeeburr could finish saying the word ’retreat’, a dagger enveloped in light pink magic tore through the space and fiercely attacked from behind, piercing directly through Bazeeburr’s skull.

In the next moment, this high-ranking official of Sky City, who had just tried to issue an order, died with his eyes wide open and fell to the ground. Blood and brain matter gushed out from his brain, staining the luxurious animal skin carpet beneath him a fresh red color.

’?!?!’

’What, what’s going on?!’

As the other executive team leaders looked puzzled at the situation in front of them, a low, hoarse female voice filled with hatred and anger slowly came from behind them.

"Retreat? Retreat what... Fire the divine cannon!!! I, I want to blow that whore Bloody Butterfly to pieces!!!!"
