Divine Path System

In the dark expanse of outer space, a lonely figure faced a horde of abyssals.

She was far stronger than ones of her own level, yet this number had gone beyond what she could bear.

Yet, Enigma poured all her strength in with each sword slash.

Her attacks never missed and with each strike, she took down an abyssal.

Yet, with blood dripping from every corner of her body, she felt a sense of weakness seeping in.

But she still fought. Her eyes were never wavering, her attack never weakening.

From time to time, Enigma teleported to dodge the lethal attacks. But that didn't completely help as the abyssals knew where she'd be teleported to and attack that location.

Just like now, dozens of lightning orbs reached Enigma and exploded.

"Cough. Cough. Cough." Enigma clutched her chest as she felt a sweet taste in her throat.

"She's almost done!"

"Focus!"

"She took down fifteen by herself! What a monster!"

The level 8 abyssals stood in the empty dark space far away from her. Yet, their voices reached her without any hindrance.

Enigma glared at them with fierce killing intent and tried to continue. But her body was already giving up on her.

'I can still escape…' The thought surfaced in her mind and she bit her lip.

If she used that method, she even had confidence in destroying the tracker in her body.

But the price was heavy—a dark, dreary, and lonely realm of sleep that'd go on for centuries.

Enigma looked at the abyssals' in the distance. They waved their hand and a slew of lightning spears surrounded her from all directions.

Enigma slashed her sword and quickly teleported away. As expected, once again blasted by the bombs at the location she was teleported to.

"Cough. Cough." Enigma covered her mouth and glanced at the abyssals.

These grey creatures, with golden lightning wings, looked at her with anger.

Because at their feet was a freshly cut corpse, spluttering blood from its neck.

"We'll torture you so much that you'll beg for death."

"We're not even kidding! It's better if you kill yourself now."

Enigma clenched her fists and straightened her back. Her body was falling apart. She ignored the pain and glared at them fiercely, but she couldn't ignore her body and nearly collapsed on her back.

"Look at her eyes, she thinks she can still scare us?" An abyssal commented.

"Enigma, eh. A headache for so long. See how's she now. She can't fight. Can't escape." Another sneered and condensed a lightning bolt in his hand.

'Escape…' As she felt closer and closer to death, the thought flashed in Enigma's mind.

'If you die, then Sia wouldn't survive. For Sia, she must escape.' The voice in her head told.

Enigma clenched her fists and glanced at Pluto far away.

If things went as planned, Varian should've picked her up long ago. But he didn't. It only meant one thing.

The plan didn't work. And he was in trouble.

There's a good chance that he'd die.

She muttered. "If Varian dies…Sia will kill herself. So, for her, I can't abandon him."

'What if he dies? He abandoned Sia. He instinctually rejects hybrids. It's impossible between them. Give up on him. Sia will get over him. We don't belong here. We never did. This isn't our war.'

Enigma fell on her knees and clenched her fists.

Sia…

Yes, she was helping him only because of Sia…no?

The abyssals misunderstood it as her surrendering.

"Hahaha! This is where your glory ends, slave."

"We'll all get promoted and get out of this shitty planet."

The abyssals approached her as they roared in laughter. But an abyssal suddenly pointed to his alpha orb and said.

"There's news that Dreamer attacked a core facility. You control her, I'll kill him real quick."

Enigma raised her head abruptly and her tri-color eyes locked onto the abyssal that spoke.

In a bone-chilling voice, she declared.

"Don't touch him."

Drawing strength she didn't even know existed, Enigma attacked him.

The abyssal's eyes turned wide and he exploded the next moment.

"Fuck!"

"She still has strength."

Enigma slowly stood up, her body threatening to fall any second. Yet, she found strength something deep inside her.

'Are you stupid? You will die! You were asleep most of your life and really had what can be called life for a fraction of time. Yet, you want to do this for Sia? Is she really worthy?' The voice in her head chattered.

Enigma flicked her wrists and two dazzling red swords appeared in her hands.

'This isn't about Sia and me anymore. This is also for…him.'

Saying so, Enigma channeled her powers and prepared for teleportation.

Space twisted and she appeared at another location, which was instantly bombarded by lightning bombs.

Though it was very taxing, she teleported almost immediately and avoided the attacks.

With a flash, she appeared right in the middle of abyssals.

The abyssals already put on a defensive barrier and attacked the moment she appeared.

Zaap!

Enigma too attacked right after appearing.

She avoided most of the attacks but was still hit by a few, causing her injuries to reach a critical state.

On the other hand, two abyssals were quickly killed.

"You!"

"She's crazy!"

The abyssals saw her chaotic aura and exclaimed.

There was a fresh wound very close to her heart!

Enigma snapped her fingers and the swords flew back into her hands.

As she was about to attack again, Enigma's eyes froze. Her arms… were shaking fiercely as they tried to hold the same swords she easily swung a few seconds ago.

'You're crazy! This level of overexertion is too harmful!' The voice in her head said. 'You and Sia should stop this Varian bullshit! This is insanity!'

"Insanity?" Enigma muttered weakly.

Somehow, the moment where Varian smiled at her flashed in her mind. Then, his words sounded.

'The repulsion problem can be solved. Don't worry about me and Sia. Worry about yourself.'

'I know..the pain you're experiencing is far more than what Boo said. I'm really sorry I can't do anything to ease your pain. But I promise that every second of your suffering will be paid back in blood by those who caused it.'

His voice was gentle, yet firm. He meant what he said. He was weaker than her, yet he was giving her support.

Enigma's eyes blurred.

She knew he was doing this mainly for Sia. But…he didn't have to take this risk. She said Sia would contact him after exiting Earth Ruins.

Yet…he was risking his life.

And in the corner of her mind, she too knew that if Varian encountered an obstacle of Pluto, he had the option to escape using ghost ship.

He could abandon the entire plan instead of risking his life.

But he didn't.

Enigma's age was long, but the days she was 'alive' weren't so long. And most of the time she was conscious, she spent it in darkness.

And for the first time in her life, someone helped her when they couldn't.

Regardless of the reasons, Enigma felt a warmth in her heart.

And that warmth gave her the final bit of strength to fight.

"Varian, I'm waiting for you."
