Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

Chapter 257 - Requiem Of Desolation: Lightning Phantom Part 1

*twocolors - Lovefool *

Raven who was walking towards the castle with a dignified expression on her face suddenly looked up.

There, in the direction of the sky above the castle, a flash of pink lightning shot towards her.

The pink lighting was so quick and even appeared as though it had blinked or even teleported in front of the trio.

As soon as the lightning stopped mid air above Raven, Gaia, and Abbadon, it took the shape of a graceful figure that had a grin on her face.

As soon as she appeared though, the trail of pink behind her vanished and immediately after, a loud thunderclap exploded above, shaking the heavens.

Gaia frowned and gritted her teeth at the grinning figure while standing up on Raven's shoulder and raising her hand. She appeared as though she was going to slap the figure down, but a change occurred before she had a chance.

In front of the group, a cyan glimmer appeared out of thin air. That glimmer suddenly condensed into the shape of another figure as it took shape.

Stepping forward, the figure looked indifferent and expressionless; he showed no joy, no sadness, no anger, or any other emotion. 

However, that changed the moment he looked at Raven and her companions as he nodded in acknowledgement, showing a faint and rare smile.

Looking at the figure on the ground, then at the one in the sky, Gaia scoffed all of a sudden.

"Get down here!" Although her small fairy-sized body was tiny, it didn't prevent her from yelling loudly in frustration. "Why can't you be as silent and gentle as your brother, why do you have to be loud and hurt me like this?"

The girl in the sky tilted her head to the side in an inquiring manner before looking back and remembering that she had just caused countless lightning arcs to weave across the sky.

"Hehe…" the girl forced a dry apologetic chuckle as she slowly descended down. "I'm sorry… I didn't mean to-"

"Humph!" Gaia harrumphed coldlya s she cut her off, clearly not meaning to listen to her excuses.

*Sigh*

"If you can't bear getting spanked gently, then wait and see tomorrow…" Raven said with a soft sigh. 

Although the lightning must have hurt, it should be nothing. She knew that Gaia was simply complaining without a real reason, but this should be a reminder that tomorrow will be tough on her.

After all, the entire planet is her body and the entire battle against the invading angels will take place here, which means that she'll experience the most agonizing pain.

Although Raven didn't want that, there was nothing she could do about it.

"What do you mean?!" Gaia suddenly asked with flushed cheeks. "Who's getting spanked? Why are you talking nonsense!?"

"Huh? I didn't mean it literally… It's a figure of speech…" Raven said in confusion. However, this only made Gaia's cheeks burn even harder.

"I know!" Gaia said, her tiny head releasing water vapour as she burnt in embarrassment. "Of course I know! I was just joking!"

"Err, Uhm," Raven nodded subconsciously before taking a deep breath and looking at the two figures in front of her with a gentle smile.

"Aella, Zeru," Raven nodded at the two sister-brother pair. "You seem to have improved quite a lot!"

"Hehe, we have!" Aella said with a grin. "We were thinking about sparring with you, what do you think?"

"Err, I just got here…" Raven looked disappointed. She came here to check up on everyone and she didn't want to start a sparring match. 

"So what?" Aella shrugged. "It's a good way to relieve some stress, you know."

Squinting at the pair, Raven found that although Zeru looked calm, his fighting spirit was obvious in his aura. Needless to say, Aella didn't even conceal her enthusiasm.

*Sigh*

"Ok, I'll give you three minutes only, I'm not in the mood," Raven said with raised eyebrows.

"Hm, three minutes… that's a bit challenging," Aella pondered. "But that's ok, I guess!"

Saying that, she instantly turned around and disappeared in a pink flash; thunder followed.

Gaia gritted her teeth again, her cheeks burned hotter for some reason as she looked back and forth between Raven and the lightning arcs in the sky.

Zeru nodded as he silently disappeared into a glimmer of bright cyan then completely dissipated into thin air as if he was never here before.

Raven smiled as she observed them leave before following behind them.

Moments later, Raven arrived at the castle gates. The guards greeted her with respect and reverence. She naturally nodded gently before disappearing inside.

Entering the underground arena of the castle; the place used as a training hall, Raven found the two siblings waiting for her patiently. 

"Since we have three minutes, we were thinking of showing you one of our new moves!" Aella said with a grin.

"As long as you can maintain peak condition for tomorrow, I don't really mind," Raven shrugged before jumping into the large arena where the two were waiting for her.

Gaia jumped into Abbadon's shoulder and watched silently.

Watching Raven looking at her expectantly, Aella raised her hand to signal for the demons presiding over the protection in the hall. Moments later, a protective dome flickered and took shape above the arena, solidifying to the maximum.

The demons obviously didn't underestimate the coming match. On the contrary, they have already begun to call some of their friends to come and watch.

Without further ado, Aella and Zeru took action the moment the protective dome was ready.

Aella's playful expression disappeared in an instant as she extended her hand towards her brother that stood beside her. The latter did the same.

As their palms touched, their mana fluctuated and mixed together as colourful rays of energy dyed the air. 

Pink lightning and ghostly cyan suffocated the air inside the dome and even the few demons who were watching couldn't help but swallow loudly at the scene. The dome protected against most of the terrifying aura but they could still feel their hair stand on an end in horror.

At a certain point, Aella and Zeru's aura skyrocketed to a new height as they yelled together: "Requiem of Desolation: Lightning Phantom!"
