Chapter 771 Angel Of Death
Inside the Primordial Shadow Realm, the World Essence was in a complete mess and was rushing in a certain direction. The ground was shaking and all the creatures were running away with a look of horror on their faces.
Powerful energy waves flowed everywhere, carrying enough power that could instantly kill even normal Rank Three Core Evolvers.
Amid the chaos, high in the dark sky of the Primordial Shadow Realm, stood a woman with two white angel-like wings. She had long white hair, golden eyes, and wore a long silver dress.
Looking at the ongoing chaos around her, the woman's golden eyes flashed, and a silver-coloured barrier covered an area of hundreds of thousands of kilometres, halting the energy waves from spreading throughout the shadow realm.
The chaos persisted for nearly ten hours before the energy waves began to calm down, and the ground of the shadow realm stopped shaking. After a few minutes, the energy waves that had wreaked havoc throughout the shadow realm completely disappeared. However, the woman who deployed the barrier didn't remove it.
At this moment, a powerful aura suddenly erupted, and the entire silver-coloured barrier started to shake. The woman with wings frowned as she tried to strengthen the barrier, but despite her efforts, cracks started to appear on the silver barrier, leaking some of the aura that the barrier was stopping.
Rumble!
The mountains inside the shadow realm started to crumble, and deep crevices formed on the ground. Just the silver of the aura leaking from the barrier was enough to destroy everything in its path.
Fortunately, the destructive aura coming out from the barrier did not last long and disappeared after a few seconds. The white haired winged woman sighed in relief when the destructive aura disappeared and finally removed the barrier.
As she removed the barrier, a woman with two dragon like horns and wings flew out. Her body was covered in shining black scales and the aura around her was still a little unstable, but compared to the previous destructive aura that leaked out from the barrier, it was completely under control.
"Congratulations, Lady Anastasia," The woman with white wings bowed and said in a respectful voice.
"Thanks for stopping the rampaging energy, Florita," Anastasia said in an embarrassed voice and stopped some distance away from the winged woman.
Anastasia used to be a Peak World Level Expert in the past, but because of an accident, her rank fell to the mid level.
After the shadow realm evolved, she felt she could reach the peak of the world level again and just as she expected, because of the evolution of the shadow realm, she easily reached the peak of the World Level once again.
Because it was not a breakthrough but instead a recovery of her original rank, Anastasia thought it would not affect her surroundings.
But the Primordial Shadow Energy that filled the atmosphere of the shadow realm not only helped her recover her rank, it even helped her become stronger than her past self, which is why she wasn't able to control her aura earlier.
'I didn't expect that the partial authority master gave me over the shadow realm would help me surpass my previous limits,' Anastasia thought inwardly and smiled.
"Where are those two idiots?" She asked after a moment.
"They said they wanted to spar and went to some remote corner of the shadow realm so that it wouldn't affect anyone."
"In other words..." Anastasia said in a neutral voice.
"Yes, Valtair is getting another beating from Draven," Florita said in a calm voice.
"That idiot..." Anastasia shook her head and sighed. "Although Draven can't use his full power yet, he is still a mid-level World expert. Why is that stupid Valtair sparing with him?"
Florita did not say anything hearing Anastasia and chose to remain silent. She felt like if she talked about Valtair, her IQ would drop by a few points.
"Anyway, I knew both of them would act like bitc-"
"Lady Anastasia, language," Florita interrupted Anastasia in a stern voice.
Anastasia's body stiffened upon hearing Florita's stern voice, and she laughed dryly. "I mean, I already knew they would act like idiots, which is why along with Draven I chose to wake you up."
"I am honoured that you trust me that much, but you should remember that I also can't use my full power yet."
"It doesn't matter, I chose you because you are perfect to manage things here in the shadow realm after I leave."
"When are you planning to leave, Lady Anastasia?" Florita asked.
"I am leaving right now. I am back to the peak of the world rank and you and Draven are already here, so there is no need for me to stay here any longer," Anastasia said in an excited voice and flew away from there.
Florita looked at Anastasia, who was flying away like an excited child and sighed. "She is hopeless," she said and followed after her.
Soon she caught up with Anastasia and asked, "What should we do about the people who are outside?"
"Are there new people outside?" Anastasia asked with a frown on her face upon hearing Florita.
"Previously, there were just demons, but a few days ago, some dragons also arrived and now they are also guarding the entrance of the shadow realm along with demons," Florita said in a cold voice, and her golden eyes turned purple for a split second. She really doesn't like the fact that some bastards are standing outside of their door.
"Dragons..." Anastasia muttered and narrowed her eyes as she remembered some unpleasant things.
"It seems the news about the shadow realm already spread among many people," She said and shrugged her shoulders. "Well, it doesn't matter because after the recent evolution of the shadow realm, all the shadow undeads are in the process of awakening, and once all of them wake up, it doesn't matter even if the entire Utopia knows about us."
"All the energy of the shadow energy pond was used up in order to wake me and Draven," Florita said hearing Anastasia, and sighed. "It will take quite some time before the shadow energy pond recovers. If there was enough energy in it, we could have awakened all the top-level shadow undeads."
Anastasia also felt it was a pity that the energy of the shadow energy pond was used up, but she did not think too much about it.
"Since they are standing outside of our door like some stray animals, should I go out and give them a warning?" Florita suddenly asked as her eyes flashed with a strange light.
Hearing Florita, Anastasia looked at her and said in a teasing voice, "You want to do your job as the Angel of Death once again, huh?"
Florita's mouth couldn't help but twitch when she heard Anastasia, and she looked away.
"Oya, don't tell me you are embarrassed. Did you forget how you used to introduce yourself as the Angel of Deat_"
Anastasia suddenly stopped talking when she noticed Florita was looking at her with a smile on her face.
"Lady Anastasia, I just remembered there was someone who accidentally broke the soul bracelet that Master had spent a few years making, and put the blame on Valtair. Coincidentally, I happened to see the real culprit who broke the soul bracelet. I wonder how Master will react when I tell him about the real culprit?"
Anastasia's body trembled when she heard Florita, and she immediately stopped talking.
Florita looked at silent Anastasia and nodded her head. She couldn't tolerate it when people reminded her about her immature self who used to act like a chunni.
"There is no need to act against the people who are outside right now. Master just came back to Utopia, and he still needs some time before he can integrate the shadow realm with his core. We will wait until he is strong enough before doing anything," Anastasia said as she landed in front of the castle.
Florita landed along with her and followed her inside the castle. Soon both of them arrived in the throne room of the castle where the core of the shadow realm was located.
"You are going to leave your essence clone here?" Florita asked once they arrived in the throne room.
"I can't go out before transferring the partial authority that I have, so I am going to create an essence clone and transfer the authority to it so that I can leave," Anastasia said as she started to create her essence clone.
Florita frowned when she heard Anastasia and asked in a concerned voice, "Will you be alright after making this essence clone? In order to make an essence clone that can handle the pressure of the partial authority, you will have to use a large amount of your power."
"Well, I will be weakened and won't be able to use my full power after making this essence clone, but I don't think there will be any problem," Anastasia said, and soon an essence clone of her appeared in the room.
Anastasia's aura weakened greatly after she created the essence clone, but she didn't care about it and let her essence clone sit on a small throne that was inside the throne room. Once the essence clone sat down on the small throne, Anastasia closed her eyes, and a black ray shot out from her forehead, going inside the body of the clone.
A small black mark appeared in the centre of the clone's forehead once the black ray went inside its body.
Seeing the black mark on the clone's forehead, Anastasia sighed in relief and a smile appeared on her face.
"Lady Anastasia, you transferred more than half of your power to this essence clone. Are you sure this is alright?" Florita asked with a deep frown on her face.
"I can't transfer the partial authority to anyone else even if I want to, so this is the only way I have if I want to leave the shadow realm," Anastasia said in a calm voice and smiled. "Besides... Even though I transferred more than half of my power, I am still strong enough to protect myself from any threats."
Florita looked at Anastasia for a few seconds and finally nodded her head.
"How are you going to leave? There might be some powerful people hiding outside. If you were in your prime, there would be no one in the entire utopia who could find you, but in your current state..."
Anastasia looked at her clone who was sitting on the throne and smiled.
"Don't worry, using the power of the shadow realm, my clone can send me millions of kilometres away from the portal of the shadow realm." As Anastasia said, the black mark on the forehead of the essence clone started to glow.
The Primordial Shadow Energy and the World Essence of the shadow realm moved, and a black aura covered Anastasia's body.
"This..." Florita was stunned when she saw what was happening and looked at Anastasia's clone with a shocked expression.
"This is the new ability that was unlocked after the evolution of the shadow realm. Now the person who has partial authority over the shadow realm can use its power to do some simple things like this," Anastasia said, and her body started to disappear. "With the help of this new ability, it will be easier for you to defend the shadow realm if someone forcefully enters inside."
Florita came back to her senses hearing Anastasia and nodded her head.
"I will come back with Master once he becomes strong enough to integrate the shadow realm into his core."
"Please take care of yourself and don't do anything reckless," Florita reminded Anastasia in a serious voice.
Anastasia nodded hearing Florita, and her body was engulfed by the Primordial Shadow Energy and the World Essence. The mark on the clone's forehead flashed, and Anastasia disappeared from the shadow realm.
