chapter 1987 Siege of Bastion the nightmare creatures had reached the shore crawling out of the surging Lake like a swarm of Horrors that had escaped The Forbidden depths of Pandora's Box in the darkness of the night their wet slithering figures glistened with the ghostly Radiance of reflected Moonlight enormous limbs Rose High into the air and plummeted down making the ruin Shake as they sank into the rebel to pull the Monstrous bodies onto land this time of course it was not Pandora who had opened the mystical box out of curiosity instead Morgan's monstrous brother had done
it out of malice still she wasn't too concerned if these poor creatures had known any better they would have stayed in the depths they would have guessed that the Box had not been locked to contain the horrors inside instead it had been locked to protect them from the true monsters that dwell Beyond witnessing the chilling tide of Abominations Soul Reaper smiled I guess it's my turn she did not seem particularly impressed by the sheer dread and Splendor of the chilling scene the blue wraith remained calm and laidback as if facing a swarm of great and
corrupted Abominations was not a death sentence for most Saints then again this saint in particular had long proven that death was afraid of her and not the other way around Morgan gave her a brief look lure them into the ruins jet raised an eyebrow amused they'll topple the wall Morgan looked at the crumbling wall they were standing on this great Fortress what remained of it was her ancestral home three generations of the Valor family had dwelt here and it was from these ruins that the Glorious sword domain was born she Shrugged impassively let them topple
it then her brother was determined to stop at nothing to destroy Valor there was no step he would hesitate to take and no sacrifice he was unwilling to make that was how one won a war her brother was determined to stop at nothing to destroy Valor there was no step he would hesitate to take and no sacrifice he was unwilling to make that was how one won a war and Morgan Morgan was the princess of War she was prepared to sacrifice the entire world if it meant achieving Victory let alone these ancient walls Soul Reaper
smiled crookedly then picked up her War sidee raised it above her shoulder and tossed it forward with tremendous Force as if throwing a javelin at the same time her body turned into a torrent of mist and swirled around the sidethe being carried away from the safety of the Fortress by its pull far below ether had reached Athena's position and dashed past her rushing back toward the wall Raised by Wolves herself lingered summoning a long Spear and looking at the approaching tide of Abominations with a grim expression it was then that the ghostly War side landed
among the nightmare creatures suddenly a chilling Mist exploded from it in all directions obscuring The View a moment later haunting whales resounded from within the veil of mist echoing across the Restless Lake Morgan had no time to pay attention to that part of the battlefield anymore the nightmare creatures calamitous as they were just a couple of them could have destroyed all of Humanity a few decades ago were merely a diversion today the true threat was her brother Athena Retreat below the wall Raised by Wolves stared at The Cloud of mist with a complicated expression then
gritted her teeth and dashed back Morgan could see tian's fin towering above the surface of the lake as it cut the surging water her brother was moving around the ruins threatening to attack them from the East at the same time a vast SWA of the Lake West of the crumbling Castle boiled revealing glimpses of Gargantua tentacles and an abominable body surfacing from the depths there were more Transcendent vessels advancing from the south as well Morgan scalled for a moment calculating the timing single quote dot dot dot he got me good this time her Vermillion eyes
glistened in the darkness despite the Head Start ether reached the battlements at the same time as Athena Morgan studied them for a moment then spoke evenly night Andale intercept nosis and his retinue if you will Athena stall Ty on for as long as you can after Soul Reaper these two were her strongest champions in fact they were no weaker than the former pillars of the House of Knight tyon and nois had been despite being decades younger and far less experienced Morgan even suspected that they would have slain the legendary Saints in battle if given the
chance to face them oneon-one sadly the two Storia saints were dead and it was morri controlling their bodies now Not only was her brother fearsome but he was also shrewd and cunning never letting his most powerful vessels face her best warriors without an advantage so she could only hope to stall them today Athena side then dismissed her Spear and crouched a moment later the crumbling wall Shook and the stones under her feet cracked the beautiful Saint sword into the air in a stunning leap seemingly flying toward the swiftly approaching fin as she flew her body
which seemed to be cast of polished steel expanded in size by the time Raised by Wolves landed in the water she was a steel Colossus at least 100 m in height a great wave Rose from her plunge into the lake and a deafening Thunderclap rolled across the lake making the trees on the distant Shore sway she was standing far away from the ruined Fortress and yet the water barely reached her things the lake was deep enough to swallow even a giant like Athena but she had chosen her Battlefield carefully there the water was deep enough
to lure taihan to come but not so deep as to leave her no Fighting Chance of course she could have fought him at the bottom of the lake if so wished Saints could hold their breath for a long time after all however fighting a Transcendent of the House of KN in the depths was something that only people with a death wish would do almost at the same time a graceful figure dashed across the black Sky rushing West night Andale assumed his Transcendent form as he flew and soon Moonlight glistened on the beautiful scales of a
majestic Dragon his great body was dark like the night sky and his eyes were like silver stars the vast shadow of his wings covered the tall waves raising up a hurricane Morgan side the three government saints were each handling an overwhelming foe but it was up to her and the Saints of night to face the most Dreadful adversary chapter 1988 ruin has come to our family to the west of the crumbling Castle a vast swath of the lake seemed to boil with foam as a seething mass of dark tentacles Rose from below the gargantuan tentacles
reached for the moonlet sky like a primordial Forest each aiming to catch Crush smother and tear the Swift enemy apart or bring the enemy down to the depths into the dark Chasm of the creature's harrowing ma the size of the enormous Kraken was so immense that it easily dwarf the Great Dragon making him seem small and insignificant in comparison however the night singer was undeterred folding his wings the dragon Dove down piercing through the Palisade of towering tentacles with dire speed his voice resounded above the lake making their movements grow slow and sluggish in the
next moment a haunting song resounded Above the lake and a devast ating sonic wave crashed into the foaming water producing a deafening explosion countless tons of water were displaced and thrown into the air obscuring the view it was really a daunting thing to witness the Dreadful battle between the ruler of the depths and the monarch of the Skies reality itself seemed to contort and groan from the dire forces Unleashed by their tyrannical clash as if moments away from cracking and crumbling down sadly Morgan did not have time to pay close attention to the battle between
Nightingale and the Kraken nor did did she have time to observe the clash between Athena and the Monstrous creature tyon the giant fin had risen even higher above the water and then the behemoth's Fearsome body was finally revealed he slowly emerged from the deeper part of the lake straightening as giant waterfalls flowed from his impenetrable scales tyon was vaguely humanoid in shape he had a powerful body that towered even above the war Colossus St Athena however where she was lean and graceful the monster of the depths was Broad and mighty his figure bulged with muscles
that resembled tectonic plates and his skin was covered by a natural carapace of unbreakable scales he had sharp ridge-like fins protruding from his back his forearms and his thighs those were like colossal blades capable of slicing armored ships in half instead of two legs tyon had four flexible pillar-like limbs that resembled long tentacles his head was bestle and appalling crowned by enormous horns and there were two monstrous serpents growing from behind his shoulders each with long twisting necks and terrifying needle-like fangs crowding their Ms he looked like a dark deity Whom The Abominable drown would
have worshiped Morgan had never been to the Great River so she could not draw the parallel however Effie who knew the drowned all too well could she grimaced with resentment and braces herself preparing to endure the assault of the Titanic fiend of the depths when the Two Goats collided the entire world shuttered and shook all throughout the ruin shards of stone fell from the crumbling walls and Scattered on the piles of Rebel Morgan winced below the wall The Cloud of swirling Mist was flowing up the shore already nearing the wall the chilling whales and muffled
thunderclaps were still resounding from within it proving that Soul Reaper was engaged in a deadly dance with the swarm of Abominations her Insidious aspect was capable of destroying Souls directly and Morgan suspected that that was the only reason why there were no rivers of blood flowing back into the lake from within the icy fog finally the first tendrils of mist washed over the stone w and she looked at the Saints of night we are retreating to the second ring Nave hesitated for a moment wouldn't that give that man more room to surround us she smiled
Darkly his forces are spread thin too there was always the risk that her brother would choose to attack either night Andale or Raised by Wolves from the back instead of going to her and her remaining Saints however the possibility was not high after all he was being weakened by the prolonged Siege just like them in fact time was his most fearsome Foe and while Morgan lacked the ability to end the battle swiftly by decapitating the enemy MRI could all he had to do was kill her that tempting possibility would dictate his actions even if he
knew that it made him more predictable Morgan turned around the four of them abandoned the outer walls and swiftly reached the second defensive ring deeper in the ruins it was situated higher than the outer wall too so they could see the battle more clearly from there so they saw the moment when the walls of Bastion fell in perfect detail even though Morgan had anticipated the inevitable destruction of the outer Rampart watching the ancient wall crumble still rattled her no one knew who or what had shattered the moon and brought the proud Citadel of the demon
of imagination to ruin in the distant past however what remained of it had withstood thousands of years of neglect and desolation never surrendering to the Wrath of the nightmare creatures until humans she and her brother came a wide section of the wall collapsed raising a billowing cloud of dust Mist poured through the breach followed by the enormous shapes of advancing Abominations they spilled from the breach like a tide there were fewer of them than before and many seemed to be in agony their movements slow and listless still nightmare creatures had invaded Bastion for the first
time since her grandfather had conquered this great Citadel Morgan sighed lightly and cast her gaze further at the shore of the surging Lake there more creatures were emerging from the water these ones were no less terrifying and yet they were no nightmare creatures instead they were Transcendent vessels of her brother as she watched several of them retained their monstrous forms While others turned into humans one figure in particular caught her eyes he was looking at her to Morgan gritted her teeth so he came personally this time far away her brother smiled and gave her a
mocking bow snarling Morgan looked away and turned to the Saints of night the main guest has arrived let's give him in his Entourage a warm welcome chapter 198 N9 home sweet home Morgan had her bow and the Saints of Knight had already summoned their weapons in this battle their strength would be stifled by having to fight on land however that did not mean that they were powerless far from it Nave was wearing light but immensely resilient armor sewn from the skin of some unknown sea monster wielding a long Harpoon made of bone as a spear
his Indigo eyes seemed to Glow In The Moonlight and his handsome face was both somber and Cold Blood wave had summoned a heavy armor forged from dull metal which made his towering figure seem even more formidable he was armed with a heavy cutless there were two of them before but one had been destroyed in one of the previous battles now the tacern saint simply used the claws of his steel Gauntlet to Ren the Flesh of his enemies ether reached toward the sky grasping a ray of Starlight and manifesting it into a thin blade the youngest
of the Saints did not possess as much physical strength as the rest of them but made up for it with speed and skill the weapons he could weave from start were absolutely lethal still his aspect was not suited for close combat that well not that anyone was suited well for facing morr today the Defenders of the crumbling Fortress were weaker than they had ever been Morgan's three most powerful Champions were away each dealing with their own crisis her brother meanwhile still possessed more than enough vessels to take the castle some of them were following noses
and tyon but 10 including his true body were here they had already scaled the outer wall avoiding the cloud of mist and the nightmare creatures that were still fighting Soul Reaper within it morr himself lingered at the top of the rampart looking up at the second ring of the battlements despite the apocalyptic noise of the battle his voice reached Morgan and her Saints clearly ah How Sweet It Is to finally come home despite the sweet words his tone was deep and dark full of nothing but coldness and Malice he smiled aren't you going to welcome
me sister instead of an answer Morgan sent an arrow flying his way laughing morr swatted it away with his sword as the spell whispered in her ear announcing the memories destruction her brother and his vessels leapt off the outer wall and rushed toward the second ring I guess HEK done being sentimental Morgan sighed and dismissed her bow summoning a sword instead all around Bastion runes carved into the ancient stone suddenly lit up with ethereal light as its enchantment aray came alive before Sentinel swords left behind by her father would come alive and fall like steel
rain on the heads of the Invaders many other deadly enchantments would activate as well enveloping the ruined Fortress in a defensive net sadly most of the aray power had been exhausted in the past few weeks The Sentinel swords had been shattered one after another the reserves of essence powering the array had been drained and many of the runes forming it had been found and destroyed now the Colossal enchantment was a pale shadow of its former self it still did one thing particularly well however it restricted both the others and the aspect powers of the prince
of nothing here in the crumbling Fortress he could only rely on brute strength to obliterate its Defenders Morgan raised her sword and prepared to fight four Saints against 10 Transcendent vessels of a murderous madman the odds were not too great for her brother that was because while he could not use his aspect Morgan could still use hers activating one of the enchantments stored in her body she sensed dire strength permeating her very being time seemed to slow down a little smiling viciously Morgan dashed forward and met the first of the Transcendent vessels as it leapt
onto the wall those of the taken Saints who could move on land in their Transcendent forms had kept them those who could not had become humans again each of them looked different but all both humans and creatures had the same cold inhuman unfeeling look in their eyes with dark flames of boundless wrath burning beneath the cold surface Morgan Crossed Swords with one of the human vessels throwing it back off the wall but in the next moment she had to dodge back as a gargantuan claw hand fell on the battlements sending a rain of sparks flying
in all directions the claws bit into the ancient stone and a hideous snout Rose above the parapet resembling that of a giant crocodile the Triangular fangs snapped almost taking Morgan's arm off or at least catching her in a crushing trap her body was as hard as steel so her limbs were not that easily separated from it a moment later two Swift figures dashed past the crocodile head and she had to defend herself from two Insidious blows Morgan managed to deflect one but the second scratched against her armor worse than that the enchanted blade seemed to
have left a corrosive film in its wake making the black steel of her breastplate boil and flow down in thin streams of bubbling metal that was what made her brother so deadly not the number of his vessels and not their power it was their perfect coordination which allowed them to fight as different parts of the same organism because they were if it were any other pair of enemies Morgan would have managed to evade both blows but the vessels of the prince of Nothing Left no chance to the enemy damn it 10 of them The Enormous
Crocodile head Rose into the air revealing an immense neck the creature's body was both reptilian and humanlike in nature and it was truly enormous standing almost as tall as the wall the Towering creature Unleashed another blow at the battlements making a section of them crumble from the obliterating force of the impact and outstretched a mighty hand a her of Sparks swirled around it starting to form into a giant bronze Trident Morgan pursed her lips on both sides of her Nave blood wave and ether had already clashed with the remaining six vessels of the prince of
nothing morr himself was holding back for now waiting to see if Morgan Had prepared any traps for him single quote dot dot dot should I be flattered he really seems to have a very high opinion of my abilities well who could blame him after all she did have a trap prepared in fact this whole battle and this whole Siege had been a carefully constructed trap
