Chapter 282: Time to Serve Vengeance (1/2)

Kyros continued to fly through the air with great speed. He had been in constant communication with Martha and had even used the enhanced power of their Dark Link to see the entire dome.

With the enhancement of the Dark Link, the power of Kyros's communication could now be passed on to a few people. As long as a member of the Coven is nearby, Kyros and the Coven could choose to link another person who is nearby.

And so, Faye and Stellya were able to hear the voice of Kyros speaking directly to them.

Kyros suspected that the power of the dark mist that spread out had sensing capabilities thanks to Calaminus's many lessons of how darkness could be used. And so, Kyros told Martha and the team to follow what he said.

The reactions that they heard proved that Kyros's conjecture was correct, and the group continued to play around with what they learned, with Kyros giving them some notes as they continued to act out the scene of pretending to be ignorant.

The retreat of the four somehow relieved the Commanders, who was still holding down on Qara, who was angry to the extreme.

”Silence! We have already been delayed in our ritual! We start now! Qara, calm your rage and join us. Now that they have retreated, we should focus on making up for the lost time we had! Neteri, have you found their souls?” Cardinal Heralcus asked.

”I... nearly did, Lord Cardinal.”

”Try harder,” Heralcus ordered as he closed his eyes to harness the dark artifact that Destiny gave for him.

Neteri was silent but was secretly cursing. It was actually because of the angry reaction of Heraclus from being called a walrus that Neteri lost focus and was disconnected from the souls of the Commander.

Neteri began to concentrate once more. Her power was vital to hasten the process of resurrection as she could communicate with the soul and create a path from the place where the soul is towards its physical location.

The souls live and see a different world compared to those who see it. They see the physical plane and the soul plane and move through it. As such, souls could not move in the same physical directions as those living could. And so, it was difficult for newly departed souls to find a way to move in the new world and new sensation they now live in.

And since the place they were at had a frozen soul plane, it was even more difficult to travel.

Neteri would try to search the resonating power of the Commanders soul. As the Commanders were the strongest cultivators ever to have walked in this place, it was easy to find them. But the soul plane was something that Neteri could not easily move into due to her weak cultivation. She had to rely on another artifact that Destiny gave her. Through this artifact, she creates a call that attracts the souls back to them. But now that the link has been destroyed, Neteri has to go through searching for the souls in the soul plane again.

The two began to concentrate as Darako tried to reason with the Qara, who was still bound in chains.

As Martha and the group retreated, Kyros then gave the order.

”Alright. Go back to them and start attacking them.”

”Go back? But I thought you said we should retreat.” Martha frowned.

”Exactly. I made you say that they will be relieved, lower their guard, and start whatever ritual they need to make. I'm sure that whatever ritual they are trying to do requires focus and intense concentration to perform. So they should be focused and trying to get their momentum to cast this spell back. Hence, you guys go back and start calling them. I'm still searching for more survivors that Midgard told me about.” Kyros explained.

”I understand, Lord Kyros.” Martha answered, and the group made a sudden turn.

”What do we say?”

”Bring out Puff, and gave his speech in dragon tongue. Since Dragons rarely interacted with people, they didn't want others to learn their tongue out of their pride. So I hope that not many of them can speak Dragon Tongue. Otherwise, this plan won't work. But might as well try since it won't cost us energy anyway.” Kyros answered.

Martha noted what he would make Puff say, and Faye and Stellya blushed as they heard it.

”This...” Gojirrah was amazed. The words would definitely invoke a reaction.
