Ascension Of The Nephilim

By the time they found Martha, the group had changed the plans. At first, they planned to attack and distract the group in order to flee. But when the dracanae transformed and now had a form closer to lesser dragons, Martha had to change it again.

Martha had to increase the time to distract them while they fled. And to do that, she needed to have the capability to walk. There was also the issue of the nearby dracanae ghouls that were wandering around the area.

Hunter, Hems, and Hemsey had repositioned themselves for this battle. There were many preparations that they had to do in those short minutes.

The first one was killing all the ghouls nearby. They couldn't afford any more distractions for the planned escape.

With the group of ghouls they had, the team managed to kill the ghouls in the passageway. Then, with Martha's prompting, the trio was able to learn how to harness the dark energy of the ghoul's blood in their blade but not to absorb it. They managed to have so much, but the team still crippled a few more and left them on the path in case they might need to absorb more blood.

Hems and Hemsey took care of this and had been using their abilities to kill the wandering ghouls. They also started to gain an even deeper understanding of their Path of Combat.

Hunter and Myas had been slowly sneaking up on the group. The howls and shouts of the dracanae ghouls were distractions that even when they appeared and pretended to die, the pair was moving closer and behind the boulders and rocks they could find.

Mardock followed the group and was compressing his power to the bare minimum. But instead of following the two, Mardock positioned himself to a stone behind the dracanaes.

When Dorothy revealed his soul, it was to mask the energy that Mardock was releasing to ensure that the dracanae wouldn't sense him as they approached.

With each of their distraction, lies, and redirection of attention allowing them to position their teams on the right place, Myas could now perform one of their trick with her sister, which they called arrow delivery.

Things such as life potions, small weapons, or whatever packages they have would be delivered through each other by attaching them and firing the arrow. To the untrained eye, it would seem that the two would be attacking each other due to the swift movements of catching the package. But for Martha to accomplish the quick and almost hidden retrieval, she needed to be able to move.

"We start now." Hunter relayed the instructions.

Myas nodded and took a deep breath as she prepared to fire.

Hunter began to shake the vial containing the fire ore.

"Now!" Myas ordered.

Hunter tossed the vial up, and Myas shot the arrow.

The arrow passed through the small ring at the end of the vial and was pulled as the arrow's fletching, which was too big to slip through the ring.

The arrow flew and struck the ceiling where a cracked stalactite was.

BOOM!

The explosion occurred, and the stalactite fell.

On the dracanae's end, they kept discussing Dorothy's strange family line when the explosion occurred.

A terrifying roar followed as the rocks suddenly came crashing down.

CRASH!

The dracanae turned back, and as they did, they could see a green figure standing. From their perspective, this green being fell from the top.

"Hmp! Dracanae Lesser Dragons?" Mardock taunted.

"Prepare to die!" Mardock released a thick amount of True Entropy.

The strange power that this unknown creature released made the group weary. Even though this stone man knew they were Lesser Dragons, he continued to mock them and was fixated on killing them.

The dracanae glanced at each other, nodded, and summoned all the remaining dracanae ghouls they had to fight that beast.

The sounds of rumbling were heard as several footsteps could be heard nearby.

At the commotion, Hunter threw two vials towards Martha. But the throw wouldn't reach. Part of the plan was to restore Martha's health and mana more. A magic restoring potion and a life-restoring potion were thrown, and Myas made the two arrow shots.

The pair had to deliver it like this since shooting the arrows with the two potions would cause it to slow down and fail to reach Martha.

The arrows slipped through the rings and flew further, and Martha expertly caught it and immediately drank.

Mardock began to charge towards the dracanae, and the five prepared to fight it. Then, they began to slowly move back as they planed to make their ghouls attack it.

But suddenly, Mardock stumbled, and the energy he was releasing vanished.

The green golem began to roll on the floor as if some powerful energy was suppressing him.

It was then the powerful soul of the Dragon Orgen Pendragon exploded out once more.

"What?! A Great-Great-Grandfather is here?!" Mardock revealed a shocked expression as he weakly tried to stand.

Mardock was on his knees, but even then, he couldn't stand up.

In the shocking scene, the group was confused. But despite how they couldn't understand why this creature was affected by Relational Superiority, It added to make Dorothy's claim be true.

If this creature of pure entropy couldn't even stand, then there was great power in being one's own grandfather.

"I must be my own grandpa!" Each dracanae vowed.

Martha had finished her drinks and was feeling the surge of life and magic in her body.

Dorothy was amazed at Martha's body. It was the first time he had seen vampires that could heal using life-restoring potions.

"I can't believe this worked! In all my life as a deceiver, I've never seen such crazy lies!"

"Trust me, Dorothy. Being my servant isn't exactly a bad thing. Let's go!"

Martha ran as Myas and Hunter prepared to fire another volley of arrows.

This time Hunter threw two vials of fire ore together after much shaking. He threw it towards the dracanae, and the three vials were tied up together.

Myas shot it, and the arrow passed through the rings and caused it to fly further.

One of the dracanea noticed it on his peripheral vision.

He turned to see what it was.

BOOM!

The combined power of three made a bigger explosion, and all five were stumbled a few steps backward.

The immense strength of their body withstood the blast, but they were startled and hurt nonetheless.

"Roar!" The dracanae roared as he turned to see where the source of the blast happened.

The dracanae ghouls were near, but these were not their ghouls. They only believed it to be theirs, but all twelve were the ghouls of the Coven. These included the ghouls that pretended to be dead. They moved as if they were headed for Mardock, but suddenly, the ghouls rushed directly towards the five dracanae and focused their attacks on two dracanae.

Six dracanae ghouls attacked one dracanae and delivered their strongest attacks immediately.

SMASH!

Punches and kicks sent the vulnerable parts happened. Cracking sounds occurred as the fist and kicks sank deeply on the body of the two Dracanae.

So far, all that Martha and the Coven discussed about the plan were unfolding perfectly.
