The Bungsu Princess Inferior

24. BEDROS

I closed my eyes tightly, but nothing happened. I opened my eyes and saw Revan standing in front of me, the dark aura ball that was about to strike me was now motionless and had turned into an ice ball, a large ice ball that smoky from the cold. Then I looked back at Vio, the ice barrier protecting him from the giant snake. Revan was still silently facing the red-eyed man, his gaze was gripping, his cold aura was oozing with a dark aura, a dark aura like mine. Could it be that the dark aura that we got during the ritual in the stone cave has now started to rise? I looked up at the sky, the sun was slipping from its place, isn't this a sign that the moon of the gods is about to appear?

I tried to get close to Varen, but her cold aura completely pierced my skin. The ice ball began to crack, my right hand touched his shoulder, the cold instantly pierced my hand, it hurt but I held back. I channeled the silver aura I had gotten from the emperor to Varen, I tried to get his body warm again, hoping that the silver aura was more dominant than his dark aura.

"Varen, relax!" reminded me. Varen's eyes looked at me, his dark aura starting to get under control, he pulled me in his arms.

"Don't I tell you not to harm yourself anymore?" Varen grumbled still hugging me. In his arms I saw the Emperor, the Empress and the magic troops were busy making a protective layer for the entire silver empire, they wanted to protect the people. I extended my right hand towards them, draining the sun aura I absorbed and creating a protective layer that also protected them inside. Strange but Varen's embrace seemed to give me additional energy, my body was not affected at all, even though I had expended a great energy to create a protective layer.

"Varen, I hate to be silent waiting without doing anything, please understand. I'm not gonna apologize for this one." I let go of Varen's embrace, the sound of ice cracks coming back. Vio ran towards our front as if on standby protecting us from the darkness. "Varen have you ever thought that cold poison is actually a powerful force if you can control it?"

Varen's eyes flashed, "what do you mean?"

My gaze turned towards the ice barrier and the ice ball together. "If it were just poison, it could never exist like this. You stemmed his dark attack with the power of ice that is a manifestation of the cold within you, perhaps this is not the curse of the moon god, but rather a blessing if you can control it Varen."

"Braaaka....Vraaang!"

The ice ball and the ice barrier broke into pieces, revealing a red-eyed man who had now returned riding on a giant snake. His gaze sharply cursed, his dark aura exuding mercilessly.

"Interesting, you finally showed up to Varen! Hahahaha.." his thunderous laughter fed me up.

"Stop Bedros!" Varen's remarks made the man who turned out to be named Bedros clenched his sharp teeth. "Did you come early for fear of God's moon support?"

Revan gave a mockery to Bedros, but I was bored. I pretended to pinch Varen's left arm, trying to get Bedros off guard. Varen caught my weird moves.

"You think I'm afraid of the moon god? Hahahaha..don't dream!" Bedros stared at Varen sharply. "But I really hate the moon god, I want to exterminate it!"

"Get out!" The arrow reached right at the heart of the giant snake, the body of the snake bursting forth.

"AAAAH! IT'S NOT THAT EASY TO KILL ME!" Bedros tried to resist the attack of our energy arrows by making a shield from the dark aura, but that was not enough! He was dragged back quickly, crashing into his own army.

"YOU ARE HOLY MEN!" Bedros rose, his body bleeding almost all over, his hands raised up. Varen grabbed my waist with his left hand. Dark storms seemed to blow all over them, they were like entering into a dark, terrible whirlwind. The bodies of thousands of dark troops were like being devoured by the vortex without any remains, the cries sounding deafening. I shuddered, Varen clenched her hands around my waist.

"I'LL NEVER LOSE!" The sound of Bedros thundering accompanied by lightning bolts from the sky, the dark whirlwind growing bigger, now spinning fiercely towards us. Vio let out a light from his unicorn horn, trying to banish but nil! The wind had broken through Vio's attack. Varen pulled me behind him. He seemed to be focused and moved both of his hands towards the sky. A heavy hail of ice descended from the sky, trying to pierce through the dark wind vortex, the vortex was stifled for an instant. From behind Varen, I launched a golden lightning bolt, repeatedly firing towards the center of the vortex. Vio flew around the dark wind vortex while shooting out his energy so as to form a light bond like a rope. Varen then attempted to freeze the dark vortex of wind with its cold power.

The vortex rebelled, I channeled the silver energy by touching Varen's shoulder. Varen kept trying to freeze the dark vortex of wind, I squinted my eyes, seeing that the vortex was slowing down for a long time. The sky darkened, the sun set, but the moon god had not yet revealed his face. Vio circled around the dark wind vortex incessantly, his aura like a rope trying to curb the vortex, almost half the vortex was now frozen. But I felt something was wrong, it was all too easy to make me suspicious!

Suddenly a loud bang blared from behind, I turned around. Thousands of other dark troops seemed to come in numbers many times more, as if wanting to give help to Bedros. Geez, we're surrounded, and I just realized that Bedros is just a lure to get us to the surface.

"Varen," Varen turned her body in my direction. "What should we do?"

Varen didn't answer me, he froze the dark whirlwind of Bedros's incarnation and broke it to pieces, finished with Bedros, he took my hand.

"We do everything we can, I want to protect them." Varen looked at his parents and people down there who were now protected by two layers of protection. The inner layer looked sturdy, the result of being made by empresses, emperors and magic troops, while the outer layer was just a thin layer that I made hasty with the addition of a few spells so that they could not fly out, I don't want to put them in danger. This fight is targeting Varen, but if it's reasoned, aren't they targeting me as well? I want to finish this battle with Varen.

"Vio, come back." Without waiting for Vio's answer, I made Vio go back into the ring, I knew I was selfishly imposing a will, but I really felt I had to focus. The dark forces are getting closer, now they seem to be coming from all over, the many dark animals I see participating, they are terrible to shudder me.

"Do whatever we can Aira, at least hold on until the moon of the gods appears." Varen looked at me, "do you still want to fight with me?"

I stared at Varen's pair of fixed blue eyes, "sure!"
