Divine Path System

Chapter 798 A Sense Of Loss

Mars seemed to be afflicted with terrible luck. One thing after another kept happening.

Now, with a group of level 9 Abyssals that called themselves 'Nightmares', the hard-won stalemate was broken.

The federation had no manpower to bridge this gap. So, Enigma took the matter into her hands.

After landing on the planetoid Rhodes where two members of the Nightmare were wreaking havoc, the former leader of Shadow Guardians got into action.

It had been two hours since she set foot on this planet and the results were evident for every soldier on the planetoid.

"Keep your senses sharp! Focus! Focus!"

"Heighten your awareness! Don't lose sight of your enemies!"

Be it humans or Abyssals, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers fighting across the planetoid were hearing the same command.

Even the level 8s remained alert, not to mention the level 7s. As for the mid and low awakeners, they were trying their best not to be swept away by the battle in the sky.

The sky of Rhodes planetoid that was shining a few hours ago was now pitch black—even darker than the night.

In such a sky, explosions occurred occasionally and the darkness was ripped apart revealing three figures.

A woman in black clothes with a soft sword in her hand with several injuries. Facing her would be two Abyssals—one with a taut body that boasted his extreme physical strength, the other being a thin but lean figure who moved at ridiculous speeds.

BOOM!

The darkness was broken and the three figures were revealed once again.

Like every time, there was a new injury on Enigma and two new injuries on the two Abyssals.

In the next moment, darkness spread and enveloped them once again.

"What a strange power." A level 8 human sighed as he failed to use his senses in the darkness.

For a high level awakener, senses were critical in battles. By affecting them, Enigma gained an unfair advantage.

Perhaps that's why she was able to fight two mid level 9s.

"Where are you looking at?" Following a roar, a shining spear shot towards the human level 8.

"I'm seeing your death." The man avoided the spear and shot towards the Abyssal standing on a cliff, intending to finish him off this time.

Rhodes planetoid shook as hundreds of thousands of awakeners fought without reservations.

From a high altitude, it seemed like fireworks of all colors were going off on the ground.

At least, that's how it appeared to Enigma who was standing even above the clouds.

"I'll ask once again, who are you two? Where did you come from?" Enigma gripped her sword and its blade hummed.

"Hahaha! Do you think knowing would make any difference? In fact, it'd crush the last hope in your heart." The Extreme Abyssal specializing in Strength laughed.

Enigma squinted her eyes and raised her sword without a word.

The sound of metal clashing rang out and a figure appeared behind her. He was holding an axe that was shaking violently.

The Speed Abyssal looked at Enigma's sword and gnashed his teeth. She actually blocked his attack!

He's an extreme awakener that boosted his speed. He always excelled in sneak attacks!

But she blocked it despite being a sub-level lower than him!

The Abyssal squinted his eyes as he looked at the darkness that was covering everything.

Even to see Enigma now, he had to focus on his senses. Yet, his performance was affected!

"Fuck! Why do you have the path of darkness?" The Speed Abyssal cursed as his figure blurred and he launched another barrage of attacks on Enigma.

Enigma made only the absolute minimum movements, but she avoided all the attacks and started counterattacking.

Even with his great speed, under Enigma's darkness, mind attacks, and gravity power, the Speed Abyssal was quickly suppressed.

As Enigma was about to land a critical blow on him, the Strength abyssal attacked.

Enigma set up a gravity shield and blocked him at the last moment. But as the price, she lost the opportunity to severely injure the Speed Abyssal.

With only a slight edge on her enemies, Enigma continued to fight.

If Varian was here, he'd be surprised to find that Enigma's combat style was very close to his.

Of course, there were differences. If Varian's combat style was based on perseverance and destruction, Enigma's combat style rested on a single pillar—Precision.

The sky continued to shake as the darkness thinned with each passing second. The three fighters got more injured and fatigued.

But the fight was nowhere near completion.

'I can't drag this on. I need to end this.' Enigma's eyes flashed with resolve and she swung her sword.

The Abyssals avoided her attack and countered.

"Is this all your species good for? Sneak attacks and depending on your numbers." Enigma mocked.

The Abyssals were a proud race. They once stood at a great height before their circumstances crushed them.

That's why she decided to attack their pride.

"Whatever you say doesn't matter." The Strength Abyssal looked at her like he was staring at a corpse. But despite striking her words off, he didn't want to admit his race was weak.

"As long as we can win, we are willing to do anything. Victory is everything." The Speed Abyssal said after launching another sneak attack on Enigma.

The Speed Abyssal's axe tore the apart and shook the space itself. Before it even reached Enigma, a huge explosion set off and the shockwave from the weapon merely traveled her leveled mountains!

Enigma clenched her fists and changed the gravity around the axe. Suddenly, the axe was 'attracted' to the Speed Abyssal who threw the spear.

The gravity force pulled the axe that was going to Enigma at breakneck speed in the opposite direction—toward the Speed Abyssal.

The axe quickly slowed down before it completely stopped before Enigma. Then, with a flip of her hand, the Axe shot towards the Speed Abyssal with a higher speed than before.

"Damn you Gravity bastards!" The Speed Abyssal cursed as he shot through the air and ran away from the spear.

Speed Awakeners exploited their speed to dodge attacks. But in front of Gravity Awakeners who could lock the weapon onto their body, they were helpless.

Enigma turned to the Strength Abyssal and her eyes shone with a cruel glint.

The sky shook the next second.

"Come help! Quick! Damn it!" The Strength Abyssal yelled as he kept raising his spear and blocking Enigma's attacks one by one.

When their weapons clashed, sparks flew and despite being the one higher in strength, the Abyssal was suppressed.

Strictly speaking, Enigma was weaker than him and should lose the physical blow. But since she interfered with his mind, he wasn't able to exert his full power. Topping this darkness that diminished his senses, it even made him weak!

It didn't end there, sometimes, the darkness would turn into weapons and sneak attack him!

"Who the hell are you? What is a hybrid like you doing in this forsaken place?" The Strength Abyssal glared at the woman.

The Nightmare was a group from the Abyss Empire. Compared to the people of the solar system, he knew more. And that's why he didn't understand what a hybrid like Enigma was doing here.

"Oh, so you're from that side." Enigma blocked a sneak attack from the Speed Abyssal who returned and said.

"That side?" The Speed Abyssal backed off and looked at her in shock. "Y-You know that we…"

The Strength Abyssal also looked at her in shock. "What the hell do you know? No, how do you even know?"

Enigma glanced at the two Abyssals for a short moment and sighed inwardly. To kill them, she needed to get them off guard or at least, get them agitated and push them to make mistakes.

Only then would she have a chance to kill them. Even that came with significant injuries.

The two Abyssals didn't attack her and stared at her seriously for an answer.

"Province Trial." Enigma suddenly said.

"Y-You!" Strength Abyssal's eyes widened as he looked at her in utter shock.

"You won't win." The tricolor woman declared. "You know what happens when you don't win, right? Your beloved friends, Zions will happily—"

"Die, bitch!" The Speed Abyssal roared in anger as appeared behind her and slashed his axe.

His face was pale green and his eyes were bloodshot. He was furious.

And that gave her a chance.

Enigma increased her gravity to the ground and the height at which she was floating plummeted.

Like a stone throne down from a building, Enigma quickly went down and dodged the attack.

And when she did, she also used her mind powers on the Speed Abyssal and exploited the burning fury in his mind.

She froze half of his body for a split second and then slapped him with a gravity palm.

The gravity around his body turned chaotic and the legs of the Speed Abyssal twisted apart while the sounds of bones popping reverberated all across.

"Why did the Abyss Emperor send you now?" Enigma's voice rang as she faced off the Strength Abyssal.

"His majesty—"

"Lemme guess. You were crushed by the Fairies and he wanted you to get the legacy so you can have a chance of survival, even if it means wiping out the human race. How moral." Enigma said in a mocking tone.

"Don't you dare!" The Strength Abyssal also lost it and went on a rampage.

Enigma used his anger against him and dealt a decisive blow.

After a few minutes, she killed the two weakest members of the Nightmare.

'Ten more to go.'

Enigma hid from both humans and Abyssals as she recuperated from injuries.

Even though she killed them, the two Abyssals managed to give her two significant injuries.

Enigma endured the pain and said. "Boo, some potio—"

She froze and looked around. "I…"

Realizing that she wasn't in the ghost ship anymore, Enigma felt a sense of loss.

The loss of leaving her home.
