Requiem Of A Failed Hero



The faint sound of the system reached Raith's ear as news about Jarvis was announced.

Raith had been so long in this moment that his senses had grown numb. The sensation of experiencing his death over and over again had completely numbed him, his face was full of wrinkles and his eyes were heavy, almost closing with his pupils nowhere to be found in them, his lips were dry and no different from that of a skeleton.

Yet in this situation, something was happening to Raith that no one had an idea about, not Raith, not the system.

[Due to Jarvis's origin the death soldier has awakened Anima]

[Anima is a source power available to the guardinals, a subrace of the celestial race]

[Death Soldier 'Jarvis' has reached rank level limit]

[Death Soldier 'Jarvis' is due for an upgrade]

[Upgrading Death Soldier 'Jarvis' from Captain rank >> Major rank]

Wham!!

Just when Cor-Ellion was about to strike a vortex of black and thick tapes enveloped Jarvis and formed a ball around him.

Cor-Ellion stopped and narrowed his gaze.

Pow pow

He stretched his hand forward and sent two space attacks at it but it was not scathed.

"Now this will be an issue?" He said softly, scratching the back of his head with a smile on his face. He looked back at Kortopi who had been standing in one place all the while.

"Is it going to be your turn now? Or you?" His gaze switched from Kortopi to Noir who was also patiently waiting.

"If you don't come at me, I will destroy this thing. Don't think I can't because my measly attack isn't scratching it. Obviously, you guys need a reason to fight so I'mma give you one. See this thing here, fight me so you can protect it or else I will destroy it and interfere with whatever is happening in there... now I wonder how devastating that will be to your buddy."

"Don't mind him! He's just bluffing!!" Crimson shouted as Kortopi was about to launch himself.

Cor-Ellion's brow creased into a cantankerous frown. "Did you just say I am bluffing?" He said, turning his head back to Crimson who had fully healed from the previous blow thanks to Raith's surplus dark energy and the abyss maintaining them.

Cor-Ellion lifted his index finger and raised his hand, "First finger law...."

WHAAAMMM!!

The entire surroundings began to quiver as if the very earth itself trembled and cracked under the force. The wind roared and breezed with an aggressive intensity, howling through the air. At the center of it all, atop Cor-Ellion's index finger, a minuscule golden orb spiraling in mesmerizing motion.

"...Goltes-Gebot."

THWOOOOOOOOMM

BOOOOOOMM

A deafening sound echoed through the air, followed by an earth-shattering vibration with the ground quaking heavily. These were all effects of the presence of the golden orb in Cor-Ellion's hand because it had not been discharged—but its effect was not sustainable by the space laws of Therut and thus it was shattering.

The space itself began to crack, and the earth crumbled and broke.

Crimson's eyes were left wide open as he saw what was happening, of course, he understood what was happening right now.

"There's no way... the space is breaking?"

He understood that these fissures in the space were more like they were getting shattered by something and the only thing that could be was whatever was in Cor-Ellion's hand, surely someone with the power of using one finger to destroy the laws governing the space of an entire plane would have more than enough power to tarnish Jarvis's upgrade.

But what he didn't understand was the extent of the power of darkness and death that Raith possessed. Who could blame him, even Raith had not realized half of his power, he still thinks rising from the dead is the best he can do, tsk tsk.

"Do you understand now..." Cor-Ellion's grinned as levitated and spoke down at Crimson. His grin was, however, short-lived and soon turned to a frown.

"It is time uh?" He muttered and folded his finger, the golden orb disappeared and in an instant, everything returned to the way it was—like there wasn't a force threatening to destroy space just now.

"I hate that I will have to stop here. Well, I have done what I came here to do." He stated but simultaneously.

[Congratulations]

[Death Soldier 'Jarvis' has been upgraded to Death Knight Jarvis]

[Status]

Death Knight Jarvis

Level: 01/30

Rank: Major

"Wow..." Crimson let out a gasp as the tape unveiled who was within with a white smoky aura seeping out of it. Jarvis had completely changed.

The clothe helm of his helmet had become white smoke, and his narrowed eyes from the helmet were gleaming white smoke. Instead of the usual red, white streaks coursed throughout his body, emanating an otherworldly aura. To complete the transformation, a large white cloak now adorned his back, fluttering majestically with each movement and he seemed to have gained some height.

"JARVIS...." Crimson called with squirmy eyes as he admired Jarvis's fineness.

"Crimson..."

They were all grabbed by shock as the thick vibrating tone came out from him. Jarvis could now talk to.

But instead of sparing them any more moment, the death knight looked up at the asura that was looking down at them.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Jarvis shifted one leg forward and swung his sword backward, pausing a few moments as though he was charging it with something.

[Death Knight Jarvis is using 'Anima: Ursus arctos horribilis']

[His physical strength is boosted to match that of his opponent]

WHAM

As his figure was adorned by a white aura that formed the shape of a grizzly bear of him, Jarvis swung his sword an arc from below sending a white sword slash at Cor-Ellion who in response smirked.

"What change does that make?" He said as he parted the strike with his hand as it reached him.

"Surely I would love to play more with you but I have to go. In the end, you were not able to save your master" He chuckled as he slowly flew higher, and upon reaching a point he disappeared into space.

Leaving all of them with the disaster of their fight.
