Chapter 618 Giving up.
Buzz.
The peak angel-rank eagle flapped its wings, hovering backwards as it was preparing to charge at Blake\'s clone, however, Blake had no intention of standing there and watching the beast act freely.
GRRR!
Out of thin air, Ebony appeared by the side of the eagle, catching it off guard. The reaction of the peak angel rank eagle was fast as it turned to see the new addition to the battlefield, but Ebony was faster.
Lunging forward with savagery, Ebony bulldozed its way through the golden flames and its fangs reached the eagle\'s neck.
"Cawww!" the eagle let out a pained cry as it wiggled desperately in an attempt to shake Ebony off, however, it was unsuccessful.
At this moment, thick darkness tendrils shot out from Ebony, stabbing into the eagle.
"Is that the darkness element?" Lucian and Valerius said in shock as their hearts sank.
Valerius cursed silently as he observed Ebony\'s Haiti appearance after its evolution.
Ebony\'s now massive muscular frame which stood at 20 meters tall was shrouded in a thick obsidian-black fur and its head was crowned by a fearsome set of pointed ears that held eyes that could pierce through the shadows with an even more intense crimson glow. Massive, razor-sharp teeth lined its powerful jaws and extending from its massive paws were claws that appeared as if forged from the darkest abyss. While grabbing onto the eagle\'s throat with its fangs, its tail danced around with a flickering flame tipped at the edge.
The evolved Ebony was brimming with power and had even awakened the darkness element from this evolution.
\'I have to save it, or we won\'t even have a chance\' Valerius thought as he watched the eagle struggle for its life.
He knew the moment it died, their hopes of surviving this battle would fall drastically as well. But what bothered him was his suspicion towards Blake and his recent actions.
The fact that Blake allowed them to see through the Night mist to see Ebony\'s new appearance meant that he wanted them to try to save the eagle. It was as if they were being baited to do something, however, he didn\'t have a choice.
If the beast died, how would they be able to defend against Ebony and Ivory when Blake alone was giving them a hard time? The thought of adding Ebony and Ivory into the fray was enough to make Valerius shiver.
He quickly made up his mind. He needed to do something and do it fast!
Valerius quickly took out two items; one being a beast\'s tooth marked with inscriptions and a medallion. He watched the items grow rapidly until they transformed into a python and a Jaguar peak angel rank beasts.
On emergence, both beasts wasted no time before springing forward in Ebony\'s direction, however, their path was swiftly blocked by Ivory.
Ivory stood tall with her regal stature adorned with a lush, pristine coat of snow-white fur which flowed seamlessly over her thin and agile frame.
As the python and the Jaguar approached, they noticed delicate light blue markings traced intricate patterns across Ivory\'s fur... These markings emitted a gentle luminosity, casting a soft, azure glow that added an enchanting dimension to her already mesmerising appearance.
Her head leaned forward, revealing pointed ears and held a pair of eyes that gleamed with a serene radiance. Her paws were adorned with glistening claws, seemingly carved from a liquid crystal that left a trail of shimmering droplets as she moved.
Lingering over her head was a radiant blue tail that mirrored the gentle undulation of water in motion, carrying with it the essence of her elemental control.
Watching the approaching foes, Ivory\'s body stood tall as a body of water carrying the same shape emerged from her body and moved to her side. The body of water soon turned solid and gained a striking resemblance to Ivory, both in statues and in presence. The two waited to meet the incoming beasts in battle and with that another round of battle began.
However, Valerius and Luciano didn\'t have the luxury of observing the battle for long, as the world turned dark once again. Almost instantly, Valerius frowned as he detected movements within the darkness. But he was just too slow to react since Blake\'s speed was enhanced by five things.
Bam.
Valerius felt a warm liquid rise in his throat, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He could feel the Ember forge stabbing deep into his heart, but this time the darkness was not only limiting his healing abilities but also draining his vitality rapidly "Are you really willing to kill your friend, just like that?" Valerius asked, hoping to take advantage of Blake\'s relationship with the real owner of the body.
His questions proved effective as Blake paused to ponder. This was a question he had been asking himself right from the moment he suspected Valerius had taken over Castiel\'s body.
However, after pondering silently for a short while, Blake shifted his gaze back to Valerius with resolve brimming in his eyes.
"Yes," Blake responded.
Listening to this response, Valerius was momentarily surprised, but it didn\'t last long. He let out a sigh of defeat, and the fighting spirit in his eyes began to fade.
While he wasn\'t expecting Blake to change his mind and let him go, this was his final attempt to survive, and seeing it didn\'t work he saw no reason to struggle pointlessly.
Valerius had given up! n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
It had become clear that he and Luciano could not defeat Blake, neither could he escape since Blake could easily chase him down to the ends of the infinite realm with the space element.
The only thing that could save him now was receiving the protection of a God. However, from the look of things, he wasn\'t confident that Synder would make it out alive from his battle with Cassius.
While Valerius could try hard to survive, he was tired of running. He was truly defeated, both in body and spirit.
