Chapter 2046 Crank it Up (Part 2)

The impact produced a boom that could be heard from Belius' walls and created a dozens meters deep crater. Iata coughed out a mouthful of blood, but a savage grin appeared on her black snout.

"Thanks, you moron!" She said while Warping away in the sky.

The hit had dealt her severe injuries but had also freed her from the hooks and given her enough space to use dimension magic. Blink could have been followed whereas Warp moved her outside the range of Life Vision.

She had conjured it with body casting while enduring the beating, waiting for the right opportunity.

"Fuck!" Crank snarled, seeing his prey escape. "I forgot that Sealed Space doesn't move with its target."

Lith was about to comment on that when he saw Solus's golden and white pillar flying toward him, followed by the golems and what was left of his Demons.

"What happened?" He asked.

"I ran out of juice and so did Raptor and Trouble." She replied panting. "I defeated one Divine Beast, but our army paid a big price for it. Once Thrud's army resumed its advance, we didn't have the strength to stop them anymore. We had to retreat."

Of the over one thousand Demons that had answered Lith's call less than a half were left. He could still see their shadows lingering around him, feel their hands clutching at him in a silent plea for new power.

"Fuck me sideways." He said while consuming the energy he had just recovered to restore the army of Demons and partly recharge the golems.

Their movements had become sluggish due to the depletion of their power cores, the mana crystals etched in their bodies almost out of juice. Solus wasn't faring any better.

Her blue core was strained from the repeated use of Sky Blessing while her body was on the verge of crumbling.

Being close to Lith helped, but it wasn't enough.

'I wanted to make my body disappear and return inside the ring to recover, but I'm too scared at the idea of what might happen. What if it counts as failing at the world tribulation? What if Mogar kills me?' She asked via their mind link.

'Excellent question, but I have another. Since when do you have world tribulations as well?' Lith was shocked seeing how similar yet different her proto-Guardian form was to his own.

'I don't know that either!' She replied in frustration. 'By my Mom, we are so dumb. All this time and we never figured it out. It's actually obvious if you think about it. Back in Kulah, Mogar talked to me.

'When Aunt Loka attacked you in Jiera and we fused, our appearance was far from human even though we used my body as a base.'

'Are you saying that those were your tribulations as well?' Lith was flabbergasted.

'Yes. I mean, no. Maybe.' Solus felt her head splitting and her heart pounding, respectively out of mana abuse and fear. 'I don't want to die! Please, Lith, help me.'
