Ascension Of The Nephilim

The orcs were horrified at what they witnessed.

It was so anticlimactic!

That knight was an expert! He was a strong and powerful knight that had enough pressure to make a level thirty warrior step back!

But he rushed and was easily devoured by the dark creature.

No bright lights were remaining as the darkness consumed it. The form of the horned demon emerged once more.

"How futile! You might have defeated me before, but I ate the Blood Calamity and had resistance to your Holy power! Me! Cracky Batcheeks! The Naked Offender!" Kyros laughed.

"Really? You're overcompensating by repeating the Naked Offender." Calaminus shook his head. He was near a certain mage, a hundred meters from where Kyros was standing.

"As long as this works, I don't care." Kyros was slowly allowing the darkness to heal him. Then, with the last slash, he released the Force that was trying to breach the curse.

The explosion of Force energy that broke out of his body had created huge lacerations all over his body. In fact, Kyros was using the darkness to help him stand and heal him. Kyros began to use the blood from his sword to begin healing him.

But despite these terrifying wounds, Kyros was not worried, but rather he was excited.

Kyros could sense that the Soul Force in his body had greatly increased and that he could finally release it.

The Soul Force in his body only had little use before. Due to the powerful curse, Kyros could not manipulate it to make Force attacks and only use it to empower his body to increase his Vitality and Strength stat. But now, he could see that the Force Energy in his body could release to some extent.

"Finally. Although it's very constrained, I can do Force attacks." Kyros smiled.

[Force Paladin job acquired.]

[Force Wielding skill acquired.]

---

"Force Wielding? Sounds so nostalgic. In my past life, I had to use the Celestial Code to aid me in Force Manipulation."

"You should be capable of Force Manipulation at higher levels. I think, just like your magic stat, you should be able to unlock more of it as you increase in your level. It's like your poking holes in a dam. Every level up is making a poke."

"I wonder how many pokes it will take for this curse to finally give way?" Kyros smiled.

"Wonder about that some other time. They're going all out." Calaminus replied as the mages in front of them began to harness magic attacks.

"Magis! Burn that monster!" The leader of the orcs shouted.

The magis channeled their energy, and several bright lights lit up the defense line of the orcs.

"Not good! Magic Missiles! This one would chase the marked target of the caster!" Calaminus realized the power of this magic.

"Fire!" The order rang out, and several fireballs were shot towards Kyros.

Kyros consumed a lot of his mana points and released a dark wall. Even with his dexterity, the numerous magic attacks would be impossible to evade.

"[Devour]!" Kyros shouted.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The power of devouring began to absorb the fireballs. But due to the skill level being so low, the magic was not being devoured.

The dark wall was on the verge of breaking, and Kyros had to expend all his mana and even began to use his Ancient and Fallen Source to keep the standing.

As the last fireball approached, Kyros concentrated and made the Dark wall swallow up the fireball. Unfortunately, this nearly drained all the mana he had.

The first attacks created several explosions, and Kyros could barely maintain the wall, but he then used the last seconds to make it look like the wall devoured the attack.

"Hahahaha! More! Feed me more fire! I am growing stronger!" Kyros activated his Silver Tongue job class to taunt and deceive the orcs.

"Stop firing!" The orc leader shouted immediately.

Behind the wall, Kyros was gasping for breath as his mana was nearly drained.

"How pitiful. If Mechiel were here, she'd laugh at my amateur use of Soul Devour." Kyros coughed up blood from the release of so much mana. He could only hold the wall for a little while longer if the orcs stopped shooting fireballs at him.

"Fools! I ate the holy power of that knight! What are your pitiful attacks? Compared to that!" Kyros shouted once more.

The magis stopped their attacks.

"Then try this on for size!" One of the orc magis shouted as he revealed a strange red orb glowing with bright energy. He was standing on a wooden tower overlooking the wall.

"Fire Salamanders Core!" Calaminus recognized the item. This was the monster's magic core which contained the fire energy. Many mages would often hunt for Cores to implant in on their body and create a Core. This mage was clearly one who was close to ranking up to his third level and had already found a suitable core for him. Although it wasn't implanted, he could still summon the stored fire energy within.

The magi drained the thick fire energy in the core and gathered it towards his scepter. A bright and strong heat could be felt that many orcs who did not have fire-resistant abilities moved to the side.

"I have never tried the full extent of this attack! The Fire Salamanders are rumored to have an attack akin to a volcano! Watch my power! My overwhelming power!" The magi laughed.

"If those small attacks are devoured, try eating this monster!" The orc magi pointed his staff and aimed at Kyros.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you." Kyros chuckled.

"Tonight, we eat roasted vampire!" The orc shouted.

"Die!"

"Calaminus, use tackle!" Kyros ordered.

[Calaminus used Tackle!]

With the level increases of his Soul Wisp, Calaminus could now perform stronger taps. With his body synched to Kyros, his taps became more powerful as the Force Energy in Kyros could now empower his soul. Harnessing that energy, Calaminus's made a strong tackle.

The position of the orc magi was critical to release the magic. The gathering of fire energy on the tip of his scepter made it 'heavier to wield. And because of that, the sudden increase due to Calaminus's Tackle caused the scepter to point downwards.

"NOOOO!"

The firebolt shot down and struck the wall where many of the orcs were standing guard.

BOOM!

A large eruption occurred right on the front lines. The town didn't have strong walls, to begin with. The explosion was also unguarded that the orcs with strong Force energy or magic could not defend themselves from the attack.

"AHHH!"

The shouts of the orcs being burned resounded, and the angry roars could be heard.

The orc magi watched in horror at what was happening. He trembled in fear and could not understand how that sudden force appeared.

FWIP! FWIP! FWIP!

Three arrows struck him in the head before he could say anything.

Kyros took advantage of that moment and charged towards the base, again firing arrows at several individuals he deemed dangerous. The Shadow ghouls and the shadow familiar emerged once more. Unlike before, the Shadow Familiars didn't have wings as Kyros no longer had mana left to manipulate the dark energy.

Kyros now only had the Vermillion Scale Armor and the Dark Cloak, which covered him in darkness. Nevertheless, he ran with great speed and utilized Force Energy to increase the power and speed of his dashes.

"How pitiful." Kyros laughed at the speed he could do and recalled the bluing speed he could perform in his past life.

Everyone was still shaken from the sudden explosion. The explosion had rocked everyone and caused them to lose balance and stumble down. Kyros also moved fast that when they turned to search for Kyros, they could no longer see him as the ghouls and familiars were moving everywhere.

The archers began to shoot as they recovered. There was no time to ponder what happened. But their attacks were aimed at the Shadow Familiars, who were intentionally revealing themselves near the fire.

[Calaminus used Tackle!]

[Calaminus used Tackle!]

[Calaminus used Tackle!]

Like a man who found a new obsession, Calaminus was like the ball in a pinball machine giving light tackles to archers and mages who were shooting. Because of that, a more friendly fire occurred.

"Somethings in here!" An archer shouted as he felt the tackle. He watched and found that his companions were also being pushed.

"Calaminus. Make a bigger commotion and distract them! I'll assassinate as many as I can. I need to recover a lot of blood. Try to use the force energy that your sifting from my soul to make a shout." Kyros suggested.

"Oh! Right!" Calaminus realized it.

"There is something here!" An archer kept shouting as he could see his peers suddenly being pushed or moved right before they would release an arrow. The orc archer gritted his teeth as his shouts were useless. Everyone was panicking, and everything was disorganized.

He saw his captain recovering from the blast. He was thrown off and was still forcing himself to stand up.

The orc ran towards his captain to report the anomaly he witnessed.

"Captain! I-" The orc began.

"I LOVE YOU! I ALWAYS HAVE!" Calaminus interrupted, imitating the voice of the orc.

"What?" The orc archer was shocked and confused. Something shouted right in front of him and hit caused him to pause and look around.

The orc captain glared at the orc archer.

"I knew it..." Another voice echoed from the side, and when the captain turned, he saw several orcs looking at them. Calaminus was, of course, the source of this comment who passed by and made more unnecessary remarks.

"So that's why there are those 'late night' reports!"

POW!

The orc captain smashed his fist on the archer and howled at the observing group to man their positions and fight the enemy.

Kyros had just reached the wall safely due to the increase of commotion. He was recovering and using the Bloodied Sword to drain the blood of a fainted orc nearby. Kyros continued to crouch on the wall to recover his wounds. He still had a shocked expression at what he just heard. The confession that just happened was the first of many.

"My friend... If we die... I... I truly..." A heartfelt voice spoke near a certain orc. The orc turned and saw his companion standing with an amazed expression. He just heard his voice spoke and couldn't understand what was happening.

Stunning and brave confessions that would make the LGBT community proud resounded around the base that night.

Some of those confessions ended up with punches and attacks, while others were reciprocated.

"I guess... that's one way to use it." Kyros was amazed.
