Fallen Chronicles



3/5 power stone bonuses,

The next two chapters might be somewhat confusing, but everything will become clear in the third one, 

----------

'Thia? '

'Why is she here!? I haven't contacted her yet.'

'No, no,'

'The more bizarre thing now is Thia's state.'

In Renji's view, the nun was steadily approaching his room. Though Suthia's figure was not that big to block the doorway, her elongated shadow, reflected by the raging fire in the city hall, seemed to be grinning madly, effectively sealing off all of Renji's escape routes.

*Clang, clang,*

The sharp and grating sound echoed in his ears – the sound of Suthia's dark, massive scythe scraping the ground as she approached, sending chills down one's spine.

Renji had seen Suthia like this before, but the problem was, he had already "corrected" her in the Holy Kingdom, reestablishing the contract. 'Why would she still...'

'Right, the contract!'

Realizing this, Renji immediately activated the contract power, trying to control the seemingly Yandere Suthia.

With Renji's awakening, a red glow flashed at the back of the nun's neck, the mark of the contract. However, Suthia only slightly slowed her steps in response to Renji's control, and the next moment – *crack, crack!*

A powerful backlash from the contract hit him, as if a heavy hammer had struck his mind, almost knocking Renji unconscious. He then completely lost the contractual connection with Suthia.

Kneeling on the ground, still reeling from the backlash, Renji was dizzy and his ears were ringing. Then, Suthia's twisted voice came from the doorway.

"See, My Lord."

"This is my love. A love that transcends all. A love that not even a contract can bind or stop!"

"I already possess such enviable love, why aren't you satisfied? Why did you have to do that? Hehehe, the love that Thia can't have, then no one else... should have it!"

As the nun's expression turned ferocious, she suddenly quickened her pace towards Renji.

But at that moment,

[SD-533 Hovering Cannon fully charged, target locked, initiating super-limit overload mode. Maximum power limit unlocked – 120%, 340%, 760%, 999%. No one will harm master in my presence! Fire!]

The maid, standing in front of Renji, had constructed numerous floating hand cannons in the brief time Renji had bought. These cannons now surrounded her, their dark muzzles beginning to flicker with dazzling blue light. Despite the constant warnings of "overload" from the floating cannons, the maid paid no heed and raised her remaining arm towards the nun. Following her last, fervently angry shout of "Fire," a barrage of blue laser beams, teeming with terrifying energy, was unleashed towards Suthia.

Facing this massive and dense laser rain, Suthia didn't use her scythe to block. Instead, she began chanting, with holy light gathering in front of her.

No.

This wasn't the familiar, healing holy light.

It was...

"[Degrade]."

These one simple words, softly uttered by Suthia, transformed the holy light before her. In moments, it morphed into an inscrutable dark gray mist, enveloping her.

This dark gray mist did not intercept the lasers from the maid. The blue beams seemed to effortlessly pass through the gray fog.

But the real change occurred after they passed through.

The laser beams, after being baptized by the gray mist, rapidly dimmed. The abundant energy attached to the beams decayed and dissipated, so much so that by the time they reached Suthia, they were weaker than bullets, easily blocked by the nun's casual gesture.

In this scene, the maid's face turned pale, filled with disbelief as she looked at the unharmed Suthia opposite her.

[How... How is that possible!? What exactly is that...]

Unfortunately, Suthia had no intention of explaining. Her figure flickered and vanished from the maid's sight. By the time the maid realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

The maid, already overburdened due to the "overload mode," had no strength to retaliate as Suthia approached. She could only watch helplessly as the nun swung her scythe and, with a 'Swish' sound, pierced the maid's chest, lifting her entire body.

Afterward, Suthia casually flung her scythe to the side. The maid, impaled through the chest with a gaping hole and countless fractured wires sparking, was completely paralyzed and unconscious. The nun discarded her like trash, tossing her aside.

Having dealt with the maid, Suthia, eager to proceed, continued towards Renji with her scythe in hand. She intended to take Renji away, but out of respect for their past relationship, she was willing to cut off some of his bothersome parts and leave them for the others.

Just as Suthia, laughing crazily, was about to take a step forward, her other foot seemed suddenly bound, immobilizing her.

The nun frowned, looking down at the vine that had emerged from the ground and entwined around her foot. At that moment, two more figures finally arrived at the battlefield.

"Quick, Sister Eileen! I'll hold her off, you get Mr. Renji out of here!" Ashu, her hands radiating a dark green light, urgently turned to the girl beside her.

With Renji's help, Ashu, who had learned the 'Shaman' class through the "contract" and now possessed the power to control plants, was responsible for the vines entangling the nun's feet.

Then, as if to buy more time for Eileen, Ashu clenched her teeth and exerted all her strength, intensifying the dark green light. Suddenly, two more vines burst from the ground beside Suthia, entwining the nun's hands like ropes.

"Hehehe~"

"Another one?"

"Another hooker? No, a cat coming to steal my fish?" Suthia's head was lowered, her bangs casting half of her face in shadow, only revealing a crazed smile at the corner of her mouth.

"Perfect, since you're offering yourself up."

Though both of Suthia's hands were bound, this didn't hinder her ability to use her powers. If anything, it seemed to...

The nun touched the vines wrapped around her, and instantly, holy light burst from her hands. Then, with the same one words [Degrade] the holy light turned into a dark gray mist, surging into the vines.

The once robust and lively vines, brimming with vitality, suddenly began to wither and decay, their color quickly changing from vibrant green to a lifeless brown.

The wilted vines could no longer restrain the nun and limply fell from Suthia's hands and feet. But that wasn't the end. The nun then used holy light again, and this time it seemed to be for 'healing'... right?

Under the healing radiance of the holy light, these brown, withered vines, while still appearing rotten, seemed to regain vitality, like undead vegetation brought back to life.

This was clearly not just simple healing. The undead vines, seemingly changed even in species, burrowed into the ground at Suthia's distant gesture. When they re-emerged, their target had switched to Ashu, who had initially controlled them.

Ashu wanted to resist, but now that the vines had been degraded and withered by Suthia and then resurrected, they were no longer connected to her and were no longer under her control.

The cat girl could only watch as the vines she had used to bind Suthia now entwined around her own body, tightening like a python. Ashu began to struggle to breathe and felt her consciousness blurring.
