Chapter 1147 Saving The Prince
-----
Because of Gustav's vampiric powers suddenly awakening in the last moment, the Demon was unable to escape, as his tentacles were zapped with crimson lightning, enough to make him step back in confusion.
Those precious seconds Gustav bought for Planta were not wasted! By using her precious Celestial Energy, a unique energy stored in her Halo that can only be used a couple of times before it runs out, and with no other way for it to recover than to wait, she conjured a mighty Ward.
Usually, she wouldn't waste this energy in making such a small yet powerful Ward… However, at this very moment, she couldn't afford to lose Gustav, and had to seize the opportunity at all costs!
"{Divine Ward}: {Sealing Cube}!"
FLAAASH!
"HUH?!"
A cube-shaped barrier ward materialized out of nowhere, encapsulating the Demon inside and completely sealing his powers and movement! The blinding golden light was slowly burning his body away, exorcizing him.
"Uuaagh! T-This can't…! How did you…?! UGH…! You truly have the power… of angels?!"
As the Demons creamed, Planta imbued the cube with Holy Spirits of Light, who wanted some revenge after they were forced to not attack him to protect Gustav.
"Shut up and die already, I'm so FUCKING tired of you demons…"
Elayne's words and face changed, she looked so serious, yet incredibly furious, something she perhaps had never experienced before to this extent.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The anger she felt against this demon and herself for hesitating before, it all came out in an immense rush of spiritual light.
"Burn."
The blinding spiritual and celestial light consumed the demon as his slimy and miasmic body boiled and began to dissipate away into ashes.
"Gryyyaaaaeeegggh!
His scream of agony reverberated across the area, as his miasma dissipated, Elayne quickly noticed little Gustav appearing there, and another body, the body of a human fused with a slime-like entity.
"Uuuaaagggh! It hurts…! IT HURTSSSS!"
"Wait, is he…?!"
Planta gasped as she noticed the man was one of the three Forgery Brothers! She couldn't remember his name, but they all looked like stupid thugs anyways.
Nonetheless, he was still another victim to this, possessed by the demons and turned into a vessel. She noticed the armor covering him slowly became smaller and smaller, although it was trying to grip into him.
"Open your mouth!"
The demon forcefully opened the man's mouth, trying to get inside of him.
"Planta! If that thing gets inside him it'll be able to resist the exorcizing! Kill it quickly!"
"Got it!"
Planta immediately hastened the infusion of powers, making the cube so filled with holy light that it began gaining cracks, the slime-like black demon screamed in agony, unable to reach its destination before it exploded into ashes.
"D-Dammit!"
BOOOM!
Crack, crack…!
CRASH!
And at the same time, the cube exploded into pieces, leaving behind two unconscious people resting over the floor, and a slightly tired Planta, all her Avatars could get tired individually after all, although they shared her Stats and Satiation.
"This is finally done! Ah, Gustav!"
She completely ignored the Forgery Brother, leaving him unconscious and naked in the floor. She couldn't even care if he died being eaten by the Undead anyways.
"Gustav! Are you okay? Dear?"
Planta hugged him tightly, holding the boy in her arms and quickly infusing him with all her healing spells together, slowly managing to help his heart begin beating again.
"Cough… Ugh…"
He began coughing a black moldy substance, making Planta panic. If the demon had left some of its miasma inside, there was a chance it could possess him!
"I have to purify his interior!" she said. "I should… do this!"
FLUOSH!
Her Domain expanded as she combined the powers of her Gourmet Essence, creating a pseudo spiritual kitchen around her. Many Gourmet Spirits came together, fusing into the palm of her hands, as she added several droplets of her own blood sap into the creation, and then a lot of elixirs and medicinal herbs.
Until finally, what was created was a tiny golden-colored pill!
Ding!
[You have prepared the [Heavenly Spiritual Body Cleansing Pill (S+++ Grade)] x1!]
[You gained +250.000 EXP.]
[You gained +50.000 Gourmet Essence.]
"My head hurts…" groaned Gustav. "Ahh.. A-Auntie Planta?"
"I'm here dear, calm down!" said Planta, hugging the boy and kissing his forehead, giving him her warmth. "Here, please eat this! It'll help you feel better, alright?"
"Um…" the boy hesitated but was slightly forced to eat the pill. "It's a candy? Hmm… tastes like honey…" the boy munched on the pill and then ate it.
Thankfully, because it was made with her sweet, flavored sap, it had honey flavor, making it easy to eat for the child. If it had been bitter, things might have gone differently… Planta knew how little kids could be about these things, she was a mother after all.
FLASH!
The boy gained an aura of light, as the internal miasma he had swallowed quickly purified, turning into ashes he coughed for a few seconds.
"Cough, cough… Ugh… I feel dizzy…" Gustav groaned. "Where am I? What happened?"
"A lot happened… But I'll keep you protected," said Planta. "Here."
FLUOSH!
Planta covered the boy on a full armor made out of her wood and scales and surrounded him with hundreds of Dragon Spirits.
"Let's go to your mom and your dad! Ah right, the Undead… Just stay behind me, I'll carry you."
"Eeh?"
Gustav suddenly realized Planta began carrying him on her back as if he were a baby, wrapped around her wooden body, as she slashed apart Undead and left behind several areas full of spiritual light, where Undead could no longer step into, effectively cleaning space from them and making their numbers descend as they had lesser space to step into.
"Let's hurry!" she roared. "{Dragon Thunder}! {Frost Breath}!"
Her Crown shone brightly, firing beams of thunder and frost and blasting, freezing, and destroying anything that approached her, while the spirits she summoned turned into elemental swords, slicing her foes.
As she moved towards her destination, she noticed that out of the ten Underworld Gates, there were two that had been closed already, her other body had already slain two of their bosses inside.
However, still, there was something ominous in the sky.
"Just what's that thing?!"
A sphere of pure darkness accumulating rapidly, growing bigger and stronger.
And from within, the beating of a heart…
BA DUM!
