Chapter 280: A Sudden Menace Approaches
—–
Nesephise and Abyss spent a bit of the morning singing. Abyss wanted to see if she could help Nesephise improve her singing a bit, while still being worried about Chaos, she couldn’t do much other than help the girl that could be the key on freeing him.
She had also grown a bit closer to her, Nesephise was simply a very nice girl to all, and Abyss might had made a good friend, even if they had spent little time together.
However, at the end, although Abyss felt like there was some sort of magical power within Nesephise’s voice as she sang, she felt that there was something missing…
“There’s something missing within you that makes the effects of your songs not take effect completely… I can tell because my very voice also has this “effect” when I sing… Have you really been putting all your heart into it, Nesephise?” asked Abyss.
Nesephise sighed as she looked at Abyss with puppy eyes.
“I… I don’t know how to put my heart into things… I-I am so sorry… I am so nervous I must fulfill this task, but I must do this to help you guys after you rescued our village…” sighed Nesephise.
Abyss looked at Nesephise as she sighed herself, and petted her head.
“I see… Sorry for making you feel like that… I don’t really know who else to ask for help… I’ve been born with so much strength yet… Now this is the first time where I cannot get through problems with brute force alone.” Sighed Abyss.
“…Abyss.” Sighed Nesephise.
“I though this world was simpler, I guess… It is, but sometimes there are things that you cannot really stop easily, even with strength, and if even, I would need to be way too strong, so strong that it is an impossible feat to accomplish even after years.” Sighed Abyss.
“…Yeah, I suppose that’s right.” Said Nesephise.
“But! We can always keep trying, right? Chaos once told me that no matter the adversities in life, we must keep moving forward with a clear goal on mind. Nesephise, I trust you. The journey to the giant frog might be long, we can keep practicing there.” Said Abyss.
“Abyss… You’re right… I shouldn’t give up yet, I have to keep trying. As long as I keep trying, something must come out at the end.” Said Nesephise.
“You must concentrate, put your heart into it! …Eh?” muttered Abyss.
“Yeah! Huh? What is it?” asked Nesephise.
The two girls looked into the clear skies of the morning, there were several shadows moving here, a dozen of spaceships, and all of them were exuding a powerful dark aura filled with thee elements of chaos and void…
“W-What is that?!” asked Nesephise.
“It seems we got trouble.” Said Abyss while squinting her eyes.
Meanwhile, inside the orphanage, Armonia and Ermenia were clearing the table from the plates where the kids and the guests had eaten food.
“Thanks for the food, you’re surprisingly good at cooking for being kids.” said Ifrit.
“Indeed, you guys’ food is nice, the sauce you use for the grilled fish is good.” Said Boxxy.
“Hehe, it is made out of aromatic herbs we pick around, there is also some tasty seaweed on it.” said Armonia.
“Inside the nearby lake there’s a lot of seaweed we pickup!” said Ermenia.
“Ooh! So that’s how it is. Aren’t you kids’ hard workers? Good kids!” said Yuki, petting the little boy with her fluffy paws.
“Hehehe…” gigged Ermenia, he melted he heart of the Wendigo girl.
“How about we help you out clean? Let’s go.” Said Ifrit.
“Thanks!”
“Thanks, big bro!”
“Big bro Ifrit, can you lift me up?”
“Me too! Me too!”
“Hahaha! Sure, right.” Ifrit giggled, as he lifted several kids and let them sit down over his muscular arms. He was pretty strong to easily do this.
SMACK!
However, the door opened wide as Abyss and Nesephise rushed into the house.
“Abyss?!” sked Belphegor.
“There are a bunch of bastards coming here! I can sense some strong presences… I don’t know if this might be true, but I fear they might be holding Forbidden One’s Fragments! They exude the same presence that Chaos does when he uses them.” Said Abyss.
“What?! More Forbidden One’s Fragments users?!” asked Belphegor.
“I thought our lord was the first in the Galaxy capable of taming them!” said Yuki.
“Well, he kind of just ate them and assimilate them.” Said Boxxy.
“Papa said that he can easily assimilate them and make them part of his body by eating them… But maybe there could be others with a similar ability… Nonetheless, we must put a stop to them, there’s no good reason why they showed up here out of nowhere…” said Erebus.
“Perhaps they came here because of the three Gods we killed? I know they were into some shady stuff if they were talking about their “boss” and other things. Even more esnalving the people here…” Said Natalia.
“Yeah, they’re being certainly not alone, they wanted to bring the egg to their boss or something, perhaps they gave out a signal and brought them here!” said Edward.
“It was kind of our fault that they came, we let them come all the way here after they forced the giant frog to come here and then when we killed them instead of letting them go… I suppose it is also our responsibility to take them down.” Said Belphegor.
“Let’s take them down, I love slaughtering bastards! Even if they got some fragments, we had grown stronger ourselves!” said Boxxy.
“Fight! Kill! I’ll summon Undead to protect people!” said Rot. He had been quite silent through the journey as he doesn’t have good social skills, but he had been having a lot of fun with the kids in the orphanage, as he was also a child in his mind, and wanted to protect them as he saw them as his friends.
“Hurry then, stop talking so much!” said Abyss, as everyone rushed outside the orphanage and into the village, the people were making a commotion as they pointed into the sky, the fleet of spaceships was getting closer!
