Ascension of the Nephilim

The orders that Kyros listed grew more and more complex. Along with the high demand was the speed of Kyros's orders.

Reptilia was barely keeping up, and Kyros would even add snide comments like 'acceptable' or mumble 'oh well' and other sighing remarks.

This even made Reptilia want to prove herself all the more.

Unbeknownst to many, Kyros was secretly harnessing his Force and Magic energy to create a strange resonance inside. His force showed a fraction of True Cut and would secretly send it in the areas where Reptilia's attention was not focused.

Kyros was also sent inside the dark powers from his core and even used Mysterion to send Holy energy.

And so, the ingredients began to react outside of the expected reactions when it was exposed to the elements.

"How? How did that happen? Why is the Vile Water Fungus seeping out with the dark energy it has?!" An alchemist didn't understand what he was seeing.. One of the Ingredients was moved near the Earth Core, and as Reptilia began to crush it, the dark energy was leaking out.

The lizard alchemist reached the nearby tables and crushed the same ingredient, but no dark energy leaked out.

It wasn't just him, but there were many who were also trying the strange anomalies that Kyros displayed on some of the ingredients that were being harnessed above.

Even Master Alchemist Crooked Bite began to move and grab some of the ingredients.

Commander Komodo was silent but knew that this young boy was showing more miracles.

"Ma-Master Alchemist. Those miracles... How?"

"I will give a lecture to explain all this soon. But right now, let's concentrate, shall we?"

The nearby alchemist cheered as they heard this.

"Alright, Champion Middle Claw, here's what you will do now. We're already past the physical chopping, cutting, and crushing. I want you to create a compressed energy bomb that would explode for about... seven centimeters."

"Wha-What?"

"Oh? Is it not doable here? Oh well. I am too used to having such powerful helpers whenever I craft. I don't blame you. Alchemy really isn't one of the lizard's strengths. And thankfully, Champion Reptilia here should be strong enough to contain magic that you can explode. Use your force energy to contain the explosions that Champion Middle Claw makes. I trust you can do that? Otherwise, the whole Operating Table will be destroyed. Feel free to drink that Force-Restoring Potion." Kyros spoke but tried to hide his sneer.

Reptilia gritted her teeth. She was getting drained from the many requests of Kyros, but her anger grew all the more.

"Just do your part, and I will do mine! This is nothing!" Reptilia shouted back.

Kyros didn't answer and continued to throw in more and more of the ingredients.

And then, Kyros soon directed the two to begin harnessing their energies to create those small explosions.

Sweat began to pour at the backs of the two Champions, and it was apparent that Champion Reptilia was being exhausted of all her Force energy. Yet despite the many desires of the nearby fighters to offer their place, the cold glare and eyes of Reptilia silenced them.

Soon, the entire process of creating the alchemy weapon was now in the last process. And that was the sealing part.

After creating the concoction, the alchemy item needed to be sealed. Alchemy drugs such as food pills, capsules, and the like would be contained through various items, and alchemy weapons would be sealed in a tight container. The sealing process was normally the hardest part as it was to contain and compress the powerful magic born from the alchemy process.

Kyros concentrated and prepared the bomb seals for the weapons as he began to direct the two Champions into the process of compressing the energy.

The problem was, there were two items to compress!

Reptilia was pressed beyond her capability, and Kyros continued to tell her to drink and even asked someone else to take her place.

But no female captain dared to take the place of Reptilia.

"I... Can... Do... This!" Reptilia shouted as she poured out her Force energy and contained the wild energy.

Kyros then immediately acted and sealed the two bombs through his own force. Since Reptilia contained the energy of both alchemy weapons, the sealing was easy for Kyros.

A muffled noise could be heard as the seals closed on the energy, and the loud sounds of the roaring fire and the exposure of the ingredients to the elements suddenly died out.

The room fell into pin-drop silence.

All that everyone could hear was the deep breaths and pants of Champion Middle Claw and Reptilia.

But no one paid any attention on them as their eyes were glued to the two alchemy weapons.

They were two metallic balls quickly moved as Kyros directed Force energy to it. The two metal balls flew towards the alchemy retrieval bin of the large glass crystal. A part of the glass crystal opened up with the force energy of Kyros, and the two alchemy weapons flew out.

"Champion Gojirrah." Kyros called out.

Gojirrah was already waiting, and the two weapons landed on his palm. His large palm could barely hold the two alchemy weapons.

"I've never seen such amazing alchemy before..." Master Alchemist Crooked Bite applauded as he rushed forward.

"Grand Master Alchemist! You have opened my eyes! What alchemy weapons are these? They look different from the alchemy weapons you said you would create!"

"It is different. I made a slightly stronger one. This isn't a Paralyzing Gas Bomb, and the other isn't a De-Magic Fog Bomb. The first is a Nerve Numbing Paralysis bomb, and the other is a Drain Magic Fog."

The silent room became noisy. But it was because most alchemists were asking each other what those two bombs were.

Only Master Alchemist Crooked Bite had a frozen expression.

Commander Komodo frowned and approached Crooked Bite.

"What are those?"

"The Nerve Numbing Paralysis Bomb is much stronger than a Paralyzing Gas Bomb! It can paralyze Champions!"

"What?!"

"And the other bomb is much more powerful and useful! The Drain Magic Fog is not just a defensive bomb that is deployed. This fog absorbs magic energies! If deployed on the battlefield against mages, it will rob the mages of magic, and it will be all contained in the bomb! That Drain Magic Fog can then become an explosive weapon or a supportive magic-recovering tool!"

"I guess it's about time for me to reveal myself. I am not just an ordinary slave. I am the son of a king." Kyros began.

"But my kingdom fell, and although I escaped, I was forced to throw myself in here. But who would have thought that my enemies would be here? And so I hid my identity and pretended to be some weak slave. Luckily, I met Gojirrah. This is the truth of my identity and how I have such knowledge as an alchemist. But enough about my past. All that I care about now is the future! I am crafting these things for free, for my revenge! Gojirrah and I found out that Golem City speaks of things that are enough to kill you all. But I will help you as long as you promise to kill my enemies, the humans in that city, and not mistreat me here. I want to be treated in equal standing to Commanders." Kyros boldly declared.

The Captains and Champions were shocked.

"It shall be as you say." Without hesitating Commander Komodo Dragon spoke.

"But only if you make a Soul Binding Vow to serve our race."

"Of course. I will gladly do so. But before you do that, I have enough energy to create two more alchemy weapons. But to do that, I would need a much stronger Force user. As you can see, this Champion lost her bearing."

"I... Did... not!"

"Just drink the Force Restoring potion already! You look like you're about to collapse!"

[Taunt activated.]

"I can... go another round and create another bomb!" Champion Reptilia was so angry that she forcibly stood up.

"Champion Reptilia. I wish to help him and experience the process of creating such weapon up front." Commander Komodo Dragon walked up ahead.

"Give me this honor," Komodo asked.

Although he wasn't respectful like how others would talk to Reptilia, Komodo was careful not to say anything rude to enrage Reptilia.

"Oh. so even this Commander likes her..." Kyros observed.

"... If Commander wishes..." Reptilia slowly walked back. Some of the nearby soldiers offered Force-recovering potions, but then...

WHACK!

Reptilia's tail smashed on these folk as she stood and watched.

Kyros ignored her and was busy talking with Komodo.

"Are you sure, Commander? This next item is quite taxing." Kyros warned.

"I can manage." Komodo smiled.

"The alchemy weapon that we will use could turn warriors into weak men. This is a Force Inhibiting Poison bomb."

"Grand Master! You can make that alchemy weapon?!" Master Alchemist Crooked Bite exclaimed.

Kyros nodded but turned to Komodo.

"The process of creating this is quite dangerous. You must focus all your attention to create a powerful Force of energy that covers the entire cauldron so that the poison won't leak. The glass crystal cannot contain this poison alone! The poison has properties that can seep and pass through almost anything. You cannot divert your attention. Otherwise, this bomb will explode and harm all of us."

"Understood. You can be at ease, Grand Master Alchemist. Even if it drains every bit of my force, I will contain that bomb!" Komodo declared.

Kyros gave Komodo a respectable smile and turned to Operating Table.

"Gojirrah. Get ready." Kyros secretly communicated.

"Prepare our escape path. Once I drain the Force out of this Commander, I'll deploy all the bombs. And then, we can begin our escape." Kyros snickered as he spoke to Gojirrah through their link.
