Far away from the battlefield. The Celestial Realm experts that still remained on the huge mountain were all observing the battle between the dean and the horned demon that had used a bison based transformation.
"That bull headed man. He is Celestial for Gods sake and look at him charging in everywhere recklessly," Said another demon. His eyes were slanted like a serpent as faint scales could be seen on his hands.
"You are right, the situation is betting bad and I am transporting to the battlefield," The mountain shook and spoke.
"You mad or what? Teleporting there just like that?" the serpentine demon shouted in shock. However, he was too late. The huge troll had already teleported himself as the mountain flickered a few times before disappearing.
In the battlefield,
The dean was preparing himself to stop the incoming attack when he felt the space spring him fluctuate. A grave feeling arose in his heart as goosebumps appeared all over his skin.
"F*ck," He muttered. Knowing that even if he blocked the incoming attack, the new part that was to arrive would bring him down for sure. Therefore, accessing his spatial storage; he brought out a small scroll.
The scroll ha faint runes over it as they gave off a mysterious feeling. Injecting his mana into the scroll, the runes lit up as the space around him warped and he disappeared from his place.
A few meters above the spot where the dean previously was, the space fluctuated as a portal was opened up. The portal extended out hundreds of meters as a frightening presence arose from it.
A huge rocky base appeared as it started to descend and the whole picture was revealed. It was a huge mountain big enough to rival the Everest.
Suddenly, in the middle of the mountain, the rocks displaced and moved as an eye was formed. The eyes opened up and started at the battlefield as the dean suddenly shivered.
He felt his body instinctually bending down to the mountain's will as he realized what it was.
"Someone half a step into that realm," He muttered as his expression turned grave. As he tried to calm himself down, he suddenly noticed another two presences above the mountain as he finally realized the situation he was in.
There were now three Celestial Realm experts he had to face and the huge mountain emitting the presence of an expert half a step into that realm was just like a cheery on top.
Suddenly, the dean's eyes widened as he saw the eye stare at the cocoon in which Amanda was.
"Not on my watch," The dean roared as he blinked in front of the cocoon, ready to do everything in order to protect Amanda. However, that was when something else happened.
Something slammed into him from behind. Looking behind him, the dean saw the demon that had used the bison like transformation as that demon had smashed through the cocoon and into him.
He saw Amanda's body flying into the air and rolling on the ground far away like a rag doll. Seeing all that, his body trembled.
A primal urge rose from within him as his anger finally erupted. His emotion overflowing, all he saw now was the color of blood.
Reacting to the change in their master's emotion, the dean's army also charged forward. The spirit generals gave turned to the offensive as they tore apart the enemy army.
On the other hand,
The dean unfurled his wings. Ignoring the hole in h stomach, he took to the air and raised the scythe high. His eyes were mow pitch black as the air of death around him intensified to the point that it started to turn corporeal.
"I don't care what you are, who you are and how strong you are but I am going to make sure that I will at least bring you all down with me," The dean spoke in anger. His voice was coarse as his anger had taken control of his mind.
Right now, the dean didn't want to kill but cause a massacre. He wanted to rip them apart and color the battlefield with their blood.
His scythe raised, a vague shadow appeared behind him as the illusion of a moon rising into the horizon appeared in the sky.
The dean looked like the grim reaper who had come down to the mortal world to reap the souls.
His scythe streaked through the air as the huge mountain had a slanted gash going through it. However, the gash disappeared within seconds and the mountain turned like before.
"Hmphh.." The dean didn't care and merely grunted. His wings flapped as he disappeared from his position. Appearing above the mountain, he looked down at the Celestials standing there and aimed at them.
Two Death Spheres were launched as he challenged them both at once.
"Fool," The serpentine Celestial muttered. His figure blurred as he shot through the air and into the dean.
The dean dodged and slashed his scythe as he dodged once again. In his previous spot was the other celestial, his hand brimming with energy as he had tried to sneak up on the dean but failed.
Having a disadvantage in the air, the dean decided to take the fight to the ground. After all, even if his wings provided him with good mobility and speed, he wasn't in the best of situations right now.
Not was his mind so calm for him to consider everything. Therefore, he decided to simplify things.
Landing on the ground, he decided to use his domain and filly utilize his strength.
[Domain:- World Of Souls],
He spoke softly as right after he did, the world around him slowed. A strange serenity spread through the air as the world turned calm. The battles happening around him slowed down. The waves of energy spread out from his body as he was the only one unaffected by everything.
Seeing the dean launch his domain, the Celestial Realm experts decided to back off but they were already too late. They realized that hey had been influenced by the domain as well and that they were within the domain.
The dean's eyes opened up as a relentless darkness shone in them. He looked at the Celestials with coldness emanating from his body. Raising his scythe, his body blurred as a huge gash appeared on the serpentine celestial while the dean appeared back in the spot where he stood.
Turning to the other celestial who resembled a hybrid between a demon and a goblin, he disappeared yet again. The appeared above him as the tip on his scythe grazed the hybrid celestial.
Even though it just grazed the celestial, the hybrid celestial's eyes constricted in pain as he felt the most searing pain spread through his soul. He tried to scream but he couldn't, the domain still affected him and all of his physical functions were disabled.
This was the peculiarity to the dean's domain. It didn't do anything to the physical body but directly restricted the soul that in turn led to the restriction of physical functions. After all, the physical body was nothing more than a vessel for the soul and the dean directly aimed at the soul so what use was the vessel.
However, it wasn't all. The dean's domain, The World Of Souls was said to be a unique domain and allowed the dean to fully use the powers of a Celestial without being restricted by the world and even let the dean showcase his Celestial class "Soulmancer" freely.
Dusting off his cloak, the dean looked at the demon who had used the bison transformation and decided to end the demon once and for all.
His scythe raised, he charged his spell into it. Channeling his mana through it, he muttered,
"Soul Claw,"
He aimed his scythe forward and then kicking the ground, he leapt up in the air and slashed the scythe down. As he did, the darkness around him surged as the air of death formed a vague corporeal claw that sped towards the demon.
The claw resembled a bony skeleton very much while the moment it passed through somewhere, only death remained.
"Hmphh!!!"
Seeing the claw approach him, the demon transformed into bison snorted in arrogance as instead of running away or dodging, he just charged into the claw.
"Fool," Seeing the demon charge forward, the serpentine demon muttered. He was truly angry and the foolishness of his teammate made him want to kill him with his own hands.
Smashing into the claw, their demon suddenly erupted with immense energy as a huge fiery aura was formed around him. His body turned red hot as tongues of fire blazed all over his body.
At first, the flames were strong and resisted well against the claw as the claw seemed to be burning inside out but that didn't last long. The claw suddenly pulsed as the tongues of flames receded. It approached the demon and clutched the demon's body.
It passed right through the bison-shaped body and clutched onto something translucent as the dean raised his scythe. As he did, the claw was raised into the air with a strange reddish soul clutched in it.
