Odyssey of the Blind God

Nial waited patiently for the Heligav to arrive, or so it looked.

He was seated on the ground and his outer appearance made it seem as if he was eerily calm. Only the darkness that covered some spots of his skin made it clear that something was wrong.

Nial was boiling in rage from within and he didn't really have the desire to sit idle and let the attackers take the next life. He couldn't allow the Heligav to leave unscathed.

It didn't matter that the God of Darkness was the Lord of the Heligav, or that they obeyed his words when he had still been alive. Damian was dead and Nial was not the same person.

He may have some memories of the late God of Darkness but he was different.

The Heligav made him suffer, which meant he would repay this debt a thousandfold.

"Are you sure that you're doing the right thing?" Princess Evalyne suddenly asked. She frowned deeply at the sight of the message she had translated for Nial.

He wanted her, or someone else, who was adept at the tongue of the Heligav to be with him so that he could converse with them when they arrived.

Instead of telling others to come to his aid and act as translators, the Royal Princess stayed at Nial's side. She would rescue him if the Heligav were to attack him all of a sudden. That was something she swore to herself, knowing that Nial was currently not in a condition to think properly.

Evalyne had yet to get to know everything that had happened in Nial's family and around him but she knew that his mother had been killed by a former friend of his, that his sister left and that his father was in a very bad mental condition.

As for Nial's reason to target the Heligav, it was quite obvious. The third victim they killed had probably been very important to Nial.

His motive was revenge, and he didn't care the slightest bit about the aftermath of his actions, which was something Evalyne figured from his answer to her question.

"I don't care whether or not I am doing the right thing. I do what I want," Nial answered coldly. He didn't want to keep talking with the Royal Princess.

She would probably dissuade him from his plan and talk him out of it, convincing him that it was not necessary to seek revenge and that he could just focus on becoming stronger to protect the remaining people he held dear instead.

But all of this didn't matter to Nial. He knew that the Elves could have eradicated the Heligav on Jundra by now, but they had been too afraid because of the aftermath.

Princess Evalyne didn't want to make a mistake by waging war right off the bat because she had a whole race to protect. That was not something Nial had to be worried about.

There was no need for him to be afraid of the battle's repercussions because he had lost almost everyone by now, he practically had nothing left to lose.

This thought caused his blood to churn even more. He was enraged but he couldn't act immediately because he knew that attacking the Heligav in their base was not something he could handle in his current state. Beings at the Keltia rank were still too powerful for him to handle, even if he were to be ready to sacrifice his bodily health to initiate all kinds of overwhelmingly powerful attacks!

Almost a day passed before some Heligav finally appeared in his enlarged range of perception. Nial got up from the ground, and more than a hundred pairs of beautiful Elven eyes moved in his direction.

He took a deep breath to control his powers, clearly perceiving the partially transformed Odyssey seed.

By making a few changes in the transforming Odyssey seed, he momentarily regained control of all the dark energy and the Essence of Darkness that was necessary to advance the progress of his Odyssey seed's evolution.

"Kerakid, mushlavra levinda!" The thunderous voice of a Heligav reverberated through the surrounding before their outlines appeared at the horizon.

All the Elves stiffened for a moment while Nial stepped forward, not showing a trace of hesitation.

"That's their leader. Don't do something stupid for the time being!" The Royal Princess cautioned but Nial couldn't care less.

"Tell him that I want to fight the Heligav Assassins that had been sent out to kill a human every 24 hours," He spoke in a seemingly calm voice.

However, his eyes had already turned pitch-black and his skin was slowly swept through by the darkness that fused with him.

"Are you serious?!" Princess Evalyne asked, trying to wage the benefits they could gain from killing a few powerful elite Heligav with the possible dangers.

There were far more dangers, such as the fact that Nial may die fighting the Heligav Assassins, or that he was actually able to kill them. The latter was likely to result in an all-out war if the situation was not handled properly.

"I want a Rykarn with the Heligav Assassins!" Nial declared as his head turned in Evalyne's direction.

Nial regretted not having been able to have a final talk with Miranda, that she died just like that and that the situation ended in such a miserable way.

However, this was not his only regret. Nial knew that he was far from perfect and that he had made many mistakes. But despite all of this, he had always given his best to make sure that the people he loved were taken care of.

He had begun to truly despise himself for being too weak to keep his promise and for being too much of a coward. In the end, he might have faced a few dangerous situations, but to gain bigger opportunities, it was necessary to have a bigger appetite for risk.

And now that he didn't have much more to lose than his own life, Nial grew more reckless. He was ready to risk his all if that was necessary to take revenge on all the beings, who believed that it was fine to play around with him just because he was weaker than them.

He was tired of being used as a scapegoat, as a plaything and not to be taken seriously.

It was obvious that he was weak in comparison to beings at the Keltia rank, let alone Gods but that didn't mean they should take him too lightly, not anymore!

"Do you even know what a Rykarn is?!" Princess Evalyne asked with squinted eyes before her eyes widened as she hurriedly added, "How do you even know these terms??"

"A Rykarn is a Warrior's tradition that allows the challenger to fight all his mortal enemies at the same time," Nial answered in an emotionless voice while ignoring the Princess' latter question.

Princess Evalyne looked at Nial for a few seconds before she gave up. She could tell that Nial was hellbent on doing what he wanted. If she wouldn't propose to have the Rykarn, Nial might as well attack the Heligav openly while ordering the Nightshadow Elves and Dark Elves to aid him in the battle.

This would result in a far worse situation than they were already in. Avoiding an all-out war with the Heligav was not something Princess Evalyne was trying to do but there were still a few preparations that had to be done.

These preparations included ensuring that all the Elven races were ready to fight for one goal, and not that they would start betraying each other all of a sudden.

Unity was the most important now that the other Elven races wanted their fair share of Jundra as well. Thus, to make sure that everything would go according to the plan, the Royal Princess needed some more time, time Nial didn't have to waste!

"Rykarn propuas Nial Orin chu Heligav assurian!" Evalyne declared loudly in the language of the Heligav. The Heligav, which had the upper body of a Minotaur and the lower body of a bull, halted only hundreds of meters away from the Elves and from Nial, who stood in the center of the Elves.

The Royal Princess was standing next to Nial, and she was the target of most piercing gazes. The Heligav were willing to sacrifice themselves to kill the Royal Princess at this very moment.

However, they weren't allowed to do so because their lives were a necessity for the race to complete other tasks and progress further.

"Rykarn? Humanity?" The hoarse voice of the Heligav's Leader resounded through the area before he began to loud out loud.

The Heligav's Leader on Jundra sounded disgusted and almost all the Elves present began to frown. Even the Nightshadow Elves and Dark Elves felt the desire to tear apart the Heligav. That was how much they loathed the Heligav; their hatred for the race was enough to unite all the Elves with the common goal to eradicate them!

Nial knew that he was being laughed at but he was not bothered. The Four meter tall Heligav were all muscular and it was obvious that he couldn't rival their physical strength easily.

But that had never been his intention, to begin with. Nial stepped forward while releasing some of his dark energy in an explosive manner. The ground all around him burst open and a tiny crater was created wherever he stepped.

Nial took one step after another, and marched forward until he stood in the open space in between all the Elves and Heligav, ready to fight.

"Are you afraid to fight me? Seems like your race is nothing noteworthy!" Nial said, smirking at the leader of the Heligav on Jundra.

He didn't need to tell someone to translate his words because more than a handful of Elves were more than willing to provoke the Heligav.

The Princess had been a little bit reluctant to translate the obvious provocation but one of the younger High Elves at the Deux rank immediately translated Nial's words.

In return, the Leader of the Heligav began to issue weird noises that turned into an earth-shattering roar. It almost looked like he was about to attack Nial and the High Elf translator at the next instance, just to calm down a moment later.

The Heligav Leader turned around as he pointed at two Heligav that were at the Mid of the Prometheus rank.

They stepped forward and the Heligav Leader began to speak a few more words but Nial didn't even hear them anymore.

'As expected, they're weak enough to avoid the hyper-sensitive senses of the radar and they possess some sort of concealment trait…Was I not able to sense them when they attacked Miranda because they activated this special trait with some concealment technique?' Nial made his conclusion within seconds before he started acting.

He forcefully distributed the mana fluctuations of the two Heligav Assassins with the use of his own mana and [Mana Sense] to mark them before he retracted his mana fluctuations.

There was no need for him to play fair in his opinion, even if the Heligav didn't feel like this.

"Can we start the slaughter, or do you guys have any last words?"
