The Blood Calamity cursed as her powers couldn't manifest at the very last second.
Due to her connection with Mechiel, it was impossible to entice Mechiel with the power of Charm. It would be tantamount for using Charm on herself.
"Hmph! I'll get you someday!" The Blood Calamity stood next to Mechiel as she glared at Kyros.
"That form looks very beautiful. I can't wait for Mechiel to grow!" Kyros admired.
"But... now let's focus, shall we? Blood Calamity. If we do this together, you could have an understanding of wielding the Celestial Code. My attempt earlier was a poor, poor imitation. I couldn't even use those magic to attack. I was only able to draw them to me. So I need your help. Lend me your powers. Allow me to experience what the true powers of the Charmed Fallen are. I lack practice after all." Kyros chuckled.
"You were confident that I won't kill you because of Mechiel, and so you openly offered this even though your soul would be in danger."
"Not just that... I know that aside from the fact that Mechiel is fated to be mine, the power of the Charmed Fallen also affects you." Kyros sneered.
"You really can't bring yourself to kill me now, can you?"
"Why don't you stick out your neck and find out?" She frowned.
"Well, we can try that. But I don't have the time. So let's begin, shall we? This Dark Link is the strongest form of bond. It's similar to what Vampires can do to their slaves and thralls. We keep the link of our soul connected so you can see the power of the Celestial Code. But when I did that, it was like a curious animal approaching me, wondering if I had food. But I don't. If we use your allure, I can wield it, and they will obey me."
"Why would you offer me this chance to train? What's the catch?"
"For Mechiel, there is no catch. But for you, it's simple. I am confident that this arrangement will benefit me more than it will benefit you. I have your blood and have awakened the Corruption of the Charmed Fallen. So learning charm magic for me is possible. But the Celestial Code is not with you, after all. I have my secrets as to why I know it!"
"Then why should I agree to this if it benefits you more than it benefits me?"
"Let me rephrase it this way. I am stronger and more talented than you can ever be. Even without a Code, I will master the Celestial Code, and you would not be able to grasp even an inkling of it because you are weak, dumb, and defeated. Even before you can manifest in this world, I defeated you. Despite your plans and traps, I outsmarted you. Look at yourself! A mere parasite to the woman I love. Destiny led you to Mechiel, but Fate allowed it knowing that your power can empower me all the more."
[Taunt of Tyrannus activated.]
The Blood Calamity erupted in anger. Mechiel felt it but then stopped the raging soul that wanted to attack Kyros.
Mechiel and the Blood Calamity had a pained expression as both were struggling to dominate the control over the soul.
Even though Mechiel was the dominant soul, the ancient power of the Blood Calamity was too strong that it became an ordeal for Mechiel.
Kyros saw it and smiled.
"I am offering you a chance to defeat me. In truth, we still are equals in a way. Both of us only have the Charmed Corruption and will attempt to learn the Celestial Code. It's all a matter of potential and skill now. These words of pride are obviously a clear taunt. But taunts are based on truth. Will your saintly pride allow my words to trample you? Or will you prove me wrong?" Kyros laughed.
"Fine! I agree with your offer! I'll show you! I am the Blood Calamity! I will be the next Xarmolipi whose powers will be known throughout time! One who commands not just the Elements but all Codes and Corruption!" The Blood Calamity declared with great passion.
"Good! Now calm down. You won't be able to sense the power if you're all hyped up and bat crazy like that." Kyros laughed.
The Blood Calamity trembled in rage as Kyros gave a casual and comical response.
"Alright! Let's start. Hey, get in Mechiel's soul. I wouldn't dare touch you. Even if you have the beautiful features of Mechiel, I will only touch the real Mechiel!" Kyros ordered.
Mechiel blushed, and the Blood Calamity submitted in rage and disappeared into Mechiel's soul.
"Hold my hand." Kyros raised his hand. Mechiel reached out, and the two souls connected. The power of the Dark Link was heightened.
Kyros began the process. He used his memories to bring out the power. But this time, Kyros didn't think about his memories of his previous life. Instead, he focused on the memories of when he showed the power several minutes ago.
The Blood Calamity could see the soul of Kyros and could tell that Kyros was drawing out his memory.
"Memory?" She frowned and couldn't understand what had happened.
"Why are you recalling this?" She asked.
"Didn't you notice? I was in a state of enlightenment and fell into a trance. That was Fate's gift to me, and I can't replicate it! So I'm using my memory to try to repeat it." Kyros gave a casual defense.
"Hmph! So this is it! Was that power just a vision from Fate? And here I thought it was all your power!"
"Fate pushed me when I was barely opening the door. My enlightenment was my hard work. What about you? Have you been enlightened with the Code or Corruption that you are not blessed or descended of?" Kyros sneered.
The Blood Calamity raged silently.
"Focus. We should start now. The Elements are now being called through this. Use your powers to call it out. Do you need me to teach you?"
"No need!' The Blood Calamity answered and released the power of her charm.
Outside, the Elements began to gather as they sensed the call. But this time, the energy was thicker, swirling around Kyros and Mechiel.
The Emberdons saw it and ran towards it.
"This! This is amazing!"
"Emberdons. Kyros and Mechiel will continue to gather the elements. Take this time to study it. You are witnessing an unknown power. But knowledge of what you see can help you! I will aid you as well!" Calaminus called out.
"Get all the Skeletons and magic practitioners here now! This is a time to learn!" Faye shouted and ordered out.
The Emberdons all gave several orders. It ranged from gathering all men to set up a proper arrangement to view the mystery and study it. A lab would be set up around it.
Branze smiled as he saw it.
"I guess we have to move our studies elsewhere." Branze motioned to the rest for them to train and study outside. He could sympathize with the Emberdons as he often fell into a research craze.
"They look amazing." Diana praised.
"Yes. We are about to see their full power in research. Look at them. They are not even turning this into a contest but will wholeheartedly work together to figure out this mystery.. We are about to see the true power of the Emnberdons."
