An Assassination! II
An Assassination! II
Someone at such a level was leading the assassination of a single Daolord, Halcyon looking at this dark clothed figure closely to see if she could make out who he was, but she got nothing in return.
She shook her head in frustration as in the slowed time, her gaze returned to the single Daolord being targeted as there...she could see a man that was smiling so brightly as if he was receiving the biggest present of his life!
A man without an ounce of worries as even while surrounded by three Daolords and a fourth one at her own level or the level of Forefather Julius and Isaac...this being was facing it all with a smile and bright eyes that released beams of light, Halcyon being able to etch this scene to the depths of her mind before all 5 figures...disappeared.
BOOOM!
Then, another set of resounding explosions echoed out as after the disappearance of Daolord Osmont and his attackers, even more terrifying things bloomed from the void.
Tonight's terrifying attack...was far from over!
After the disappearance of Osmont and the 4 Daolords that surrounded him, the void was seemingly not done with everyone as it spat out multiple figures that looked humanoid, but they were too overly plump in some places as they also had three pairs of wings erupting from their backs.
Their bodies released terrifying waves of essence as this wasn't all, their coming was closed by one last entrant from the void.
ROAAAR!
With a body glimmering white and gold and seeming like a mixture of the most ancient animals, a Beast stepped out of the void as its roar alone seemingly devoured its surroundings.
The essence of Ruination and the Primordial Daos leaked dangerously from it as shockingly, such a combination of essences meant not Lesser...but a Grand Primordial Beast!
Those at the level of Lesser only held either Ruination or Primordial Daos, with those at the Grand Level holding both.
Such a creature appeared from the void of the shattered ballroom within the Primal Haventower as its gaze...actually came to lock on Halcyon.
The other figures of humanoid existences with three pairs of wings on their backs all rushed out powerfully in multiple directions as they targeted anything within the banquet hall, no matter what colors of what House they wore.
'Vile things!' Halcyon couldn't help but show her distaste, too many questions appearing on others' minds if they were the ones watching what she saw.
Daolords popping out to assassinate another? And then weird humanoid creatures along with a Grand Primordial Beast following them?
It raised too many questions and possibilities as Halcyon could only shake her head with a sigh.
Seeing the gaze of the terrifying Grand Primordial Beast locked onto her with purpose and its myriad of wings behind its back flapping towards her, Halcyon sighed some more as her body had already been lit up with a myriad of essences.
'Even with everything aside, I have reached it as well you know? .'
What granted her the title of Foremother. It would definitely not be enough to handle a Grand Primordial Beast, but it would be enough to hold it off for some time. What she could do would be enough.
But...she knew she wasn't alone. Forefather Isaac was here, and even the distasteful Foremother Rose that came with those from the House of Stormdust. With them and all the Daolords within the Primal Haventower, it should be enough.
Before the terrifying Grand Primordial Beast could smash into her, she also looked into the group of beings that Daolord Osmont had brought with him, her gaze particularly locking with a certain Queen Dowager and a Blue Slime among others.
With such a cluster of beings around her, even in all the chaos...she knew that she would survive.
The question remained for the disappeared Daolord Osmont, and exactly where he was taken by the attackers. What exactly was this being facing at this moment?

Darkness.
This was all that Noah could see, or what he should have been able to see. But under his eyes, everything was as clear as day. The very air around him felt viscous, as if the surroundings themselves were trying to weigh him down with the weight of Universes.
Essence that wasn't Ruination or Primordial surrounded everything as it was utterly black and devouring all light, the essence bringing a sense of repulsion to Noah as he saw everything around him.
The three Daolords that had been reaching out towards him to attack had been nothing but a diversion, the main culprit being the existence that had reached out above him- the existence with the same level of power as Princess Halcyon and the Forefathers he had seen before that could make his danger bells ring.
It was this dark clothed being that had released an ability that covered all of them and took them to another location!
As for where this location was?
RUMBLE!
Noah wouldn't be given a chance to find out as the three Daolords near him pulled back, only the being that should have achieved the stage of "A Glimpse of Edicts"similar to what Princess Halcyon mentioned remaining above Noah as his hands were materializing a crimson spear that was being formed by the coagulation of multiple Daos and Laws.
It was someone similar to Noah that had been trying to put together Laws and daos, but his coalescence felt rough and unstable...as he didn't have the Samsara Universal Dao Origin Trait nor the Cosmic Dao of Fusion that Noah had.
But he was dangerous nonetheless, and Noah found to his awe that this wasn't the only dangerous aura around him!
Apart from this existence and the three Daolord that had pulled back, there were three pristine and colorful Primordial Beasts making his way over in this dark space...each of these terrifying beasts holding a figure on top of them that looked like a bulky humanoid with three pairs of wings erupting from their backs.
It was a cluster of terrifying enemies, with many of them releasing an aura at the same level as Noah if not vastl above it...and all of these were prepared for Noah's assassination!
But even in such a dangerous predicament, Noah only found himself marveling at the shocking reality before his eyes.
'Primordial Beasts and Daolords working together?'
He only marveled at such a fact briefly before his glimmering eyes took in everything around him...and then his body exploded with overbearing might and power!
