Odyssey of the Blind God

Chapter 600 Pain In The ...



"Kiralim, voldaren mulakea, Shinadae!!" One of the man Originals surrounding Nial shouted out loud, causing him to frown deeply.

"Can you speak in the universal language please?" NIal asked in response while making sure that his dark energy was sealed within his body and not oozing out. Some races were highly religious and they weren't really in favor of existences with 'evil' energies. Nial didn't really want to offend anyone because he was in need of the people living in this stellar system. He wasn't even sure where the closest adjacent stellar system was located either.

Ignoring the isolated stellar system to which Nial didn't want to return, this place was certainly the most important for him.

"Shuralam Kiralim, fykcalo shotari!!!" Another Original bellowed, pointing his longsword at Nial.

'Looks like you guys don't know how to speak the universal language. That's pretty darn annoying, for sure…' He thought while continuing to use his range of perception and Mana Sense to figure out more about the multitude of races around him.

If Nial were to be searching for a term to name them, it was probably Demi-Human. Each of the Originals and Ascenders around him was in possession of human parts. Some had more, some less. Other than the human parts, the beings in front of him were pretty unique. Some had body parts of a single type of monster, while others looked like Chimeras with some parts of their body being of various monsters.

Considering them as Demi-Humans did them justice, or so Nial thought. Of course, that didn't really matter because he couldn't even converse with them. They may as well be fish. If he couldn't converse with them, none of that mattered.

He tried to gesture to the Demihumans to calm down and to listen to him. Unfortunately, his gestures weren't really taken as calming hand movements.

Rather, the Demihumans began to believe that Nial was practicing sorcery, or so Nial thought when almost all Demihumans began to move nearly simultaneously, charging at him in hostility.

'Where the hell did I end up?' Nial shouted in his mind, having a hard time understanding how his calming gesture could be considered a hostile movement.

He unleashed his dark energy in an instant and exerted the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique. Nial moved behind the Original who was the furthest away from his position. The Original was casting a spell, or something similar to that, as a huge array of light, consisting of numerous runes, manifested in front of him.

The crocodile-head Demihuman wielded a staff with a crystal embedded on top of it as well, giving off the vibe of a wizard.

'This guy is definitely a wizard, a true virgin for sure,' Nial told himself, trying to calm himself as the dark energy tried to influence him. It tried to make him attack and kill the Demihumans. That was not something Nial actually wanted to do. After all, he was more focused on returning home than on making sure that nobody dared to speak up against him. He was in need of a good, or at least, neutral relationship with the Demihumans.

Not killing them was a pretty nice gift from him. It showed that he didn't have any hostile intentions. At least, it would show that as long as he played out his cards properly.

With a seemingly simple chop, he knocked out the crocodile-man before he could finish his chant. He grasped the Demi-Human and retreated rapidly as he perceived that the bright array was about to explode.

This was exactly what happened just a moment later and was caused by the unfinished chant. Nial had, obviously, no idea of that, and it didn't really interest him either because he could protect his body and the body of the crocodile demihuman with his dark energy.

After the bright array exploded, Nial threw the unconscious body of the crocodile man behind him while releasing the Devil Roc from within his Heart of Darkness.

"Take good care of him, and don't eat or injure him!" Nial ordered while having a hard time enhancing his voice with dark energy to make sure that his words traveled through space.

If not for them being in space, Nial would have used his strongest form of Dominion before knocking out the Demihumans one after another. It would have been highly efficient and very easy.

Unfortunately, it was pretty difficult for Nial to make sure that his voice would travel several kilometers in space. He never had to do something like that and he had yet to figure out how his voice was actually affected while being in space. There were a bunch of things he had yet to find out. Thus, it was already more than enough that the Devil Roc knew what it had to do and that he could freely use the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique in addition to his Weaponry of Ten Thousand Nights martial art technique.

The Weaponry of Ten Thousand Nights technique considered the hands as a form of weapon as well. That way, Nial had also learned how to do close combat without actually using an external weapon.

He disappeared from his spot once again and passed through space in an eerily fast manner. Nial reappeared next to another opponent, knocked him out, and threw the unconscious body in the direction of the Devil Roc. The Devil Roc expanded in size until it reached its original size.

The appearance of the Devil Roc attracted some attention but Nial didn't really care about that. He was having trouble finding spots to disappear and emerge from when using his Grasp of Eclipse technique. Thus, instead of continuing to travel through space, Nial ended up releasing a massive amount of dark miasma rapidly. He spread it through the space in his surrounding area using his dark energy that was already spread out.

Afterward, he shrouded his hands with Chaos which was further enhanced with crimson moonlight. No sooner than he finished, a bulky, two-meter-tall wolf Demihuman appeared in front of him. He had metal claws as his weapon and slashed them at Nial with the intention to tear him apart and kill. Nial blocked the slashes with his Crimson Chaos shrouded hands and counterattacked with a series of high-velocity punches and a final attack that relieved the Demihuman of his consciousness temporarily.

Nial was evidently stronger than his opponents but that was not something the Demihumans at the Mythician rank seemed to be willing to accept. They replaced their weapons with different sorts of weapons, runes glowed up and a huge box enveloped the remaining Demihumans with Nail before everyone was pulled to the ground of the box.

'What is that?' Nial though, unsure what exactly was going on. His mana perception was drastically affected inside the huge box where the gravitational force seemed to work perfectly fine.

He could sense that the box caused a disruption of mana, but that didn't really make sense either.

'They should have countermeasures for this…so they can use mana, right?' Nial wondered while trying to use his dark energy as well. However, this was easier said than done. It didn't work properly, and the simplest movements of dark energy were already enough to inflict pain.

'What a pain in the ass!'
