Destroying My Own World

Chapter 353 Possession.

Mephis landed and she went down to her knee as if she was greeting them from coming to her place. She was so majestic that they couldn't stop staring at her pale, shiny, and smooth skin. She then slowly rose and lifted her head to look at them which were a fourth of her size.

"Some of you don't belong here, and I suggest you leave before it's too late," Mephis' soft and quiet voice made everyone feel so calm. "But those who have done bad deeds, you can't leave this place," her cold and menacing expression made those who had sinned tremble in fear.@@@@

Mykel who was about to kill Mephis or used to be Nephilim was surprised when he saw Aevia floating right behind Mephis. Her smile was imprinted on the cloth and for whatever reason she appeared behind Mephis would only mean bad news.

Mykel stepped aside to observe what kind of tricks Aevia was trying to use. He let Victoria and the others take care of Mephis first and checked if she showed any oddity in her power.

Sophia, Duncan, Felix, and Sabel were preparing to make a move on Mephis. But when they were thinking of a plan, they were shocked when Mephis changed her appearance and became Victoria with a folded fan in her hand. That wasn't the only thing that shocked them because Mephis could use all of Victoria's abilities, including bone manipulation.

"You stole my sister's power, and now you will have to pay for killing her," Mephis stared at Victoria. "You have killed so many lives, and it's time for them to take revenge," she snapped her fingers and brought hundreds of damned souls, covered in hellfire.

The souls weren't just the ones that Victoria killed, but the souls that died on Isola Key Island. There were a total of four thousand souls and they were all blinded by rage to take revenge. It was a problem, but the real problem was Mephis who could manipulate the bones that appeared from the ground.

"Don't you fuck with me? You're not the only one who could—" Before Victoria could finish her sentence, she was confused that she couldn't use any of her abilities.

Mykel knew that it would happen, and he didn't want to take the risk to fight Mephis head-on knowing Aevia was sticking right next to her. It would be impossible for Mephis to take his power, but not if Aevia decided to help her to withstand his power.

"Why are you just standing there?! Do something with these bones!" Sophia shouted at Victoria.

"I can't use my abilities, all of them have been sealed..." Victoria answered as she looked at her status screen and her abilities were all grayed out. "She took all of my abilities and I can't do anything about it," she pointed out.

Javelin who had seen the real battle made Zachary's fight against Mephis look mediocre. But that wasn't her concern because if the previous demon was that strong, she was afraid that Zachary was no match for Mephis. She was the only one who knew that Mephis was holding back her power to fight Zachary.

"He won't be able to defeat Mephis on his own like that," Javelin pointed out. "We need to do something," she looked at Victoria.

"With Mephis stealing Zachary's power what do you want us to do? We are lucky that she's holding herself back, and we can see how she's only toying with Zachary right now," Victoria looked at Javelin.

"Well, at least it wasn't Mykel..." Sabel grunted as his limbs had regenerated and was ready to fight again. "But this is also quite troublesome because nobody could stop her right now," he added.

Everyone turned their attention to Mykel who was watching in the distance. They realized how bad it would be if Mephis took Mykel's powers and abilities because it would be the end of them. But at the same time, they couldn't let Mykel join in the fight because it would only make things harder for them to defeat Mephis.

"So what can we do? I don't think we can do anything at the moment because we need to carefully think of a plan and the best thing we can do right now is to retreat," Sophia asked as she looked at Victoria.

"Not particularly. Look," Victoria stared at Zachary who seemed to be mumbling to himself, and the sword in his hand started to glow. "Looks like he has something under his sleeve," she pointed out.

The moment Zachary stopped mumbling, the sword radiated its light, blinding everyone. They couldn't open their eyes, even Mephis was pained by getting exposed to it. The moment the light dimmed and disappeared, they looked at Zachary and his eyes were glowing white.

"This presence... Leraluz," Mephis squinted her eyes and looked at Zachary. "To think you would possess a human body is unbelievable, but as long as your toy is broken, I'm quite pleased," she smirked and then turned back to her original form.

Mykel looked at Zachary and noticed the one who possessed him was Leraluz or used to be Jeanne. He could see the way Zachary's stand was similar to Jeanne's and how he held the sword loosely. But then he noticed that Zachary's body was being burned by divine power that would kill him if he was exposed to it for too long.

"The Gods have decided that this will be the time for you and your sisters to disappear, Mephis," Leraluz said as she swung her sword and released a strong shockwave, pushing everyone away from the battlefield.

"Funny you said that even though you were on your knees back when my eldest sister put her sword on your neck!" Mephis spread her wings as she pulled out the sword and staff that were similar to the one on her statue. "One is enough to kill you all," she imbued her sword with darkness and her staff with divinity.

"It will be different this time," Larazul glanced at Mykel and then readied her stance.
