Chapter 670 (1/2)
Book 6, Chapter 62 – A New Order
The Teures convened The Tiemere's Demonhunter Commander Phoenix, Stormford's Grand Prior Bruno, and Praelius' Grand Co in brief the situation that Skycloud now faced
When her report was finished, Phoenix's fiery red hair was practically standing on end One could alues of flah it were actually on fire
Of the four foreign leaders it was the lone woed by the circu when the realedies? Were they so useless? That one leading the wastelanders, Cloudhawk – I will deal with him myself!”
A smile crept into Bruno's face “Don't be so hasty, Commander Phoenix We know from the honorable Avatar's report that this Cloudhawk is the Deest to be found in this world No one contests that Coen a master of di They withheld their words as they pondered the situation
Until now they were unaware of the troubles facing Skycloud All of the Elysian realms were separate and did not typically co happened to the Cloud God's realm, they wouldn't be here
Eventually Lucian asked a question “Why is Skycloud's patron deity not with us?”
It then occurred to the others that indeed this was an Elysian realuide it!
Mount Sumeru had lost contact with the Cloud God but knew it still lived Skycloud's master had severed its ability to provide information to the collective but still received The Cloud God knew all that Gods were preparing
When the Supremes sent their representatives to Skycloud, they did so without telling the humans about the Cloud God's aberrant state Orders were simply to comply hatever the Avatar required for this was no ordinary Godly representative – the poithin her was gifted directly by the God King
Selene explained in calm tones “The Cloud God has been corrupted and will never return to Mount Suade it must be destroyed”
“What? Murder a God?!”
Once more, Phoenix raised her voice This time in alarm The others shared a wordless look If they'd been asked to hunt a demon there would be no hesitation, but to slay a God? Such a thing was easy to say but far more difficult to achieve On the one hand it was difficult for them to wrap their minds around On the other, the Cloud God had been one of the Supre herself “The Cloud God's strongest aspect is its psychic ability He can attack through nearly any defense and is ainst the Gods yet, the corrupted God cannot be per”
Selene's powers of time allowed her to see all attacks before they occurred However, against the mental powers of the Cloud God even she felt threatened Its scope of influence ide, far wider than Selene's If it attacked froe of her abilities she would not know until it was too late
It ainst the Gods entirely But whether or not that was true, it would act before the Boundary Portal opened again
When that occurred Selene would find it difficult if not impossible to finish the process Besides the fact that he could attack froreat distances, Skycloud was also its hole word could unravel all her plans
The fact that the Cloud God had yet to do either of these things meant it was still uncertain Perhaps it hoped to return to the fold
Selene found it pathetic, al with the blind desperation of a gaht seal removed… what made it any different froain “Calm yourself, Mistress Phoenix We are newly arrived and know nothing of this place We should listen to the honorable Avatar's instructions”
Clearly Phoenix was the roup More than likely it was a result of the environreatest warrior there was not a soul in Dragenmere that could stand before her Undoubtedly this would foster a ant nature
Of course she was also no fool She knew there were powers greater than her When her patron God arrived even it would not be able to supersede the will of the Avatar How h to knohen to hold back
