Ascension of the Nephilim

Kyros continued to walk down the stairs as if it was nothing.

The power of Kyriachos detected a being similar to its lord and did not attack.

But as Kyros took more and more steps down, the stronger the darkness was and it was beginning to attack Kyros! It no longer sensed the supremacy of Kyriachos and began to attack Kyros.

"Hmmm? Such darkness dares to fight me?" Kyros laughed as he began to sprint down the steps and enraged the darkness.

"Calaminus... You better hide inside my soul and don't you dare try to go out. This darkness is insane!"

"I can feel that it's literally insane. Such madness lies in ut. Why is Kyriachos also attributed to those who are wild and insane?"

"I don't know. You're the god between the two of us. Didn't you know him in your life?"

"Know him? Oblivion made me forget! I only remembered him when we met him personally! You're a Kyriachos and the son of Wisdom! Can't you deduce that yourself? You should tell me, mister class president!" Calaminus asked.

"...If I were to guess, the darkness or the void is something that ceases thought. It's like Oblivion in a way. People affected by it fall into the bottomless darkness of the Dark Maddening where only their body and instinct move them. It removes every control and constraint in their body and adds a terrifying amount of death energy. The deeper we go, the stronger this death energy is." Kyros explained.

"So it's basically magic."

"..."

Kyros was angered at Calaminus's reaction and Kyros opened his mouth.

The power of Dark Devourer appeared and Kyros began to eat the darkness.

The darkness began to tremble in fear as the mad dark eater appeared.

Inside Kyros, the power of the Light Core harnessed Brimstone to purge the darkness. Kyros also had an energy conversion circle inside of his body that was actively changing the elements of darkness and was increasing Kyros's cultivation.

"Hmm... I can't eat too much otherwise, the rest can't train here. This is a good training ground to resist or assimilate in the darkness. I guess I can use this darkness to raise a few levels..." Kyros chuckled.

"Erm... Kyros... The darkness is affecting me." Calaminus complained. He had evolved from being a Soul Core to a Soul Seed. And because of his soul seed form, he was now practically 'alive' just like how plants are.

"I know. But this darkness is good soil. Based on the books that I read and from the knowledge you told me, those that have a chance of becoming a god or a fallen create a Chamber of Power in their Soul realm. To become an eternal being, the soul itself has to become the source of power so that eating and drinking are no longer necessary. I've planned to create a garden of life in my soul realm. Soul seeds like yours will be the perfect one." Kyros explained.

"AHHHH!" Calaminus cried as his soul seed was exposed to a powerful Brimstone energy. As the Time God, his inverse element was Brimstone who purges everything, including time. And while half of his soul seed was buried in darkness, the other was exposed to the great heat of Brimstone!

"Get used to it. You'll need it to grow. And that should keep you silent." Kyros chuckled as he descended deeper and absorbed more of the darkness.

The darkness that acted as the soil was being drained by Calaminus as he was being exposed to the brimstone light of Kyros.

Kyros continued to walk down the steps towards the lair of the Okto-Khefali. In this world, his imprisonment was kept in this darkness but the arrival of the Lizard Lords would have opened this chamber through some mysterious means. But Kyros changed all that by bringing in the warriors and fighters of the Planesworld.

Listrel and Lea's appearance also altered the direction of the future to the point that Fate and Destiny's estimates were delayed.

Now, with the Nephilim forgotten, the destiny that would have awakened the Okto-Khefali was also lost.

As Kyros walked deeper and deeper, he arrived at a point where even the darkness was finally causing him pain and the pace of his steps was getting slower and slower.

"I can't... walk anymore..." Kyros frowned.

"I guess I have to eat as much darkness as I can. The rest don't need this level of darkness to train from." Kyros opened his mouth and began to become one with the darkness.

"The living... will be killed by this death energy. Those that are dead or Dark Dependent will be absorbed and taken by the dark. But I am... both! I am a vampire so I cannot die. But I am also light! And as light, this darkness can never convert me! Perhaps this is the future that I will live! I'll be like a candle in the dark... Then this will be the place... to practice to keep my light shining no matter what!" Kyros smiled and began to cause his Brimstone energy to rage from within.

Calaminus felt great pain but his Soul Seed had received a majestic boost. Dark energy as his ground and the powerful heat of Brimstone as the sun was causing Calaminus to grow!

He was slowly forming a strange ethereal body that was within Kyros.

A soul was clearly forming within Kyros's soul.

"That's it...!" Calaminus sensed it. The way that his soul would be kept hidden had finally revealed itself. If it was just the previous traitor Greater Gods and the Fallen, then Calaminus was confident that he could hide his appearance. But with numerous Beings that Were involved, Calaminus knew that he would be detected.

"A soul space...! This is the power of the Nephilim! I get it now! That Fortress! I thought it was built by other gods and fallen! But it in itself is Kyros's power! He hides! He hides an army! He hides a kingdom! He hides the souls of the gods, fallens, and beigns that will be his ally! In him the allies of Beginning are forgotten!" Calaminus felt it as his soul began to form.

"You finally understand? How slow... That's the true purpose of the Library of Light and Shade! The stronger I get and the more I unlock about those codes and corruption, I could hid a god within!" Kyros teased as he constantly began to surge more of the power inside of him.

"Hm? I leveled up. I guess I should start walking." Kyros decided and descended into the darkness.

Deep down the passage, the Okto-Khefali was starting to grow curious.

"What kind of a person can resist that darkness? Was it that Grendelor I sensed? To think she would be this strong! Does she have that power? Somatos Ous Thanatou? Then the vision I saw of that Necromancer should happen anytime soon..." The Okto Khefali cursed.

As a being who lived during the War of the Heretics, he was not new to strange anomalies as the battles with gods and fallen will naturally bring out the strangest events.

"Somatos Ous Thanatou... The body of death. Is this... my end? Is this the final moment of me, Eugene?"

RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

But then, it was as if the darkness grew angry. The darkness that chained Eugene began to move. The four heads of Eugene perked up in confusion.

"Hm? The darkness is now fighting light? Impossible! How can there be light in this place?! It would be snuffed out!" Eugene exclaimed.

Eugene began to feel a call as one of its heads suddenly rose up.

"My Dark head!" Eugene was amazed.

The dark head turned to Eugene.

"A being... approaches. He is not of my master, nor is he your ally. He is the Nephilim and he bears the power that is similar to your cores! He is an Okto-Khefali slayer!"

"A Slayer?!" The Okto-Khefali was shocked.

"Allow me to use your powers." The dark head spoke.

"...Fine!" Eugene cursed. A Slayer of his kin was a treacherous thing. As an Okto-Khefali, dying was very difficult for him. As long as his Cores exist, he may yet live. His resilience and power even surpassed dragons! But yet, here was a being that had caused final death to another Okto-Khefali!

"The being... can eat darkness. It must have slain an Okto-Khefali with a dark head like you!"

"Eating the darkness? Then send my darkness to it! Let's see the stats of this being! [Dark Scan]!" Eugene used powerful magic that would surpass the scanning abilities of Cardinals!

The darkness moved along with the darkness and Kyros was unable to defend against it.

"Scanning magic?! Somethings alive down there?!" Kyros cursed. He didn't expect something to use scan magic on him. Kyros was unguarded. And so, the magic had scanned him accurately.

"I guess I have no choice... [Skotos Eis Phos]!" Kyros shouted as a magnificent beam of light exploded and purged the darkness.
