With Sylas green light, the spirit cannons of the spaceships opened fire.
*Boom*
The city trembled, the buildings were blown into smithereens, and explosions followed the impacts of the cannonballs, in a mere couple of seconds a third of Makir was decimated, the reason, Sylas aimed at the places that in his experience were used as storage houses for spaceships.
Besides the huge material damage, batches of corrupted beasts were also turned into nothing, the very few which managed to left something behind were burned to a crisp, some of the cannonballs aimed at the royal castle but there was a separate barrier which prevented it to be blown away.
Lilia turned to see her son and noticed he was smiling.
"Darling, is everything okay?".
"Mm?", Aster frowned his eyebrows, for some reason he felt a slight sensation of euphoria seeing the destruction caused to the city, it was similar to the huge amount of lust he felt towards Lilia and Alice sometimes.
Aster shook his head.
"Stupid incomplete bloodline, if you can't affect my judgement when it comes to my strongest feelings, what chances do you think you have in other aspects", he thought.
Rya has told him before that, dragons are violent and lascivious, so far, he has only manifested lust towards his mother and sister, but apparently the flames of war brought the other part out.
"Don't worry mom, apparently my dragon side wants to do some exercise".
Lilia licked her lips.
"We are in the middle of something here, but if my darling wants to then I'm happy to oblige ♥".
Before Aster could answer Rya interrupted them.
"For the love of the heavens, focus on the current "battle" before thinking on starting another one".
Aster laughed, he made a gesture with his hands, Eris, Mylene, Ritz and Adrian left their spaceships.
"Rya is right mom, we will have our "battle" later, for now here comes the genesis manifestation nuisance".
The flagships in Prasil at most had combat prowess similar to that of a middle stage star tribulation, because their rune masters weren't that skilled, so there was no reason for peak star tribulation cultivators and above to remain within their spaceships.
Apparently the Rigas weren't as stupid as Aster thought, even if they didn't have their guards up, they have prepared for this day, the ground of the city teared apart and the fleet of Riga rose from a hidden storage below the city.
Of course Sylas wasn't merciful enough to let them gain height without any problems, loud explosions echoed through the sky as the cannonballs impacted against the barriers of the spaceships.
Augustus had a cocky expression seeing that his spaceships were resisting the assault, but his expression twisted when he saw a golden line of light cutting a mid-sized spaceship in half.
He gritted his teeth looking for the source of the attack and saw a black-haired youth looking at him with disdain, the elder David snorted and took out his saber and slashed towards Orson's spaceship.
A dull sound made its way to everyone's ears, the figure of two old men holding each one a white axe with similar designs, blocking in front of the royal spaceship made David frown his eyebrows.
"A pair of miserable mortal transcending realms blocking my attack, how can it be!!!", he shouted.
Surprisingly the one who replied was none other than Eric which used a voice amplification spirit formation to make all the presents hear his voice.
"The patriarch of the Barbarian Heart sect sends his regards to the bastards from the sand mountain sect hahaha".
Aster nodded in approval.
"So that was the gift Eric talked about, those axes are a set of stellar ranked treasures… not bad".
Ritz pointed his axe at David, which made its color change from white to black.
"The Barbarian Heart sect will take care of the sand mountain sect", he said before Adrian and him flew upwards until they disappeared into the clouds.
David looked at Augustus and nodded before he followed them, leaving behind Augustus two women and surprisingly, another guy which looked similar to… Valentine but older, his skin trembled from time to time as if there was something moving below of it.
After a couple of seconds, they were facing Aster and the girls, with just a dozen of meters distancing one from the other, it didn't escape Augustus eyes that Aster stole a couple of gazes at his general but the same could be said of Nolan.
"So you are the other party that came from the outside, perhaps you recognize the new appearance of my most trusted general Nolan, a certain kid had a surprisingly decent lineage among the ones that arrived at my territories so Nolan assimilated him, I hope he wasn't a friend of you, because he died miserably".
Aster shook his head
"The only thing I regret is that couldn't kill him myself, but since that idiot is part of that guy then I can destroy him instead, speaking of that what happened to the other three guys and the girl that were with him?".
Augustus frowned his eyebrows.
"What the hell are you talking about… could it be two birds escaped from the cage, I only welcomed three youngsters in my castle, the boys were stripped from their vitality and the girl became my toy, just like it will happen with…".
Augustus couldn't finish his threat, when Lilia grabbed his neck and they both disappeared from the planet.
Aster smiled.
"You could have lived to give your third-rate villain speech if you have watched your mouth, whatever at least I know that only Valentine and another one died, so Kail, and Kray probably didn't arrive at Riga, Kayla and her boyfriend got what they deserved since that pig elder is also not here".
"Ghaah aghh aghh", a guttural laugh made Aster look at Nolan, his teeth were spiky, Nolan has absorbed the non-refined vitality of so many people that his body was no longer the one of a human, just like what happened to Robert he basically turned into a monster, also his cultivation fluctuated between the early and middle stage of the mortal transcending realm.
Eris and Mylene chose one of the two women, while Aster pointed his sword at Nolan, without a second of delay their images flashed and the next thing everyone saw was a mountain a couple of kilometers away collapse, followed by a huge portion of the nearby forest being blown away and a river which water rose from another impact.
The spaceships on the other hand started maneuvering to get away from the city in order to start their own battle, only the big spaceships had weapons so the soldiers landed and started killing the corrupted beasts.
Sarina, Alice, Aria and Kana descended from the spaceship and joined the battle at the ground, so now everyone had their own opponent.
About six kilometers away from Makir, Aster was clashing against Nolan, whenever his sword swung a limb was severed, but Nolan ripped that part of his body and a new one replaced it in a millisecond.
Rya who was watching the fight from the mind space looked rather amused.
"This guy is like corpse puppet at this point, he is just a mix of different minds joined together due to the impurities of all the vitality he absorbed, mortals never cease to amaze others with their ideas".
Aster saw Nolan smiling, his face became more and more similar to Valentine, which gave him a good idea.
"I wonder did you became a eunuch after what my sister did to you for being an idiot?", he said in a disdaining voice.
Nolan's expression twisted; his previously indistinguishable voice became clearer.
"I have the memories of that kid named Valentine, who would have thought that he was related to you, by the way according to this guy your sister was his obsession… I guess after I kill you, I could fulfil his wish as a thanks for giving me his lineage haha… aghhhh!!!".
Aster leaned his sword over his shoulder.
"You corrupted can somehow share information, so you know how Robert died, this ability of discarding the places where I cut with my sword wasn't a bad idea, what a shame unless you are a genesis manifestation or above, once annihilation touched your body… you are a goner".
Nolan kept screaming, his body started melting, no matter how much he tried to regenerate his wounds, the golden light didn't disappear.
Rya laughed.
"What a joke, you want to overwhelm annihilation with that low impure vitality, when a certain twin which had control over the law of life couldn't fix something cut with my sword".
Nolan's face had the same expression as valentine when he was beaten by Alice, Aster saw it and he pierced his head with the tip of his sword, with a last scream his whole-body light up in golden flames before Nolan disappeared into nothingness.
Aster sighed.
"What a disappointment, of course he wasn't near the battle prowess a real mortal transcending realm should have since he only advanced thanks to absorbing the lives of others, but I at least expected some resistance, Robert was less pathetic".
Rya shook her head.
"That guy was originally an early star tribulation, he only advanced that much because Valentine's blood had a similar boosting effect as yours, on a really weaker amount of course".
Aster turned to see the battlefield, things were going quite well, but then the sky changed from its green-blue tone to a darker one, which made everyone look up to see what was happening.
Ritz and Adrian were the most shocked, since they were above the clouds, they saw what happened closer, even David felt his back covered in sweat.
"What the hell is going on!!!", everyone thought… one of the nearest planets was now missing a third of its original mass, the explosion caused the sky of Prasil to darken, it was as if the world was about to end.
Aster sighed, "That is not controlling your strength mom".
