Bro, I'm not an Undead!-Chapter 1469: Subjugating A Deity (6)
Only when all three gifts had been clearly outlined did Nunax become cognizant of the enemies before her. Skullius judged that this was a mechanism meant to give the subjugator a brief reprieve while earning their rewards for the Trials.
'Then I guess that sudden attack earlier was prompted by the Taming Appixel just for the fun of it, huh,' the future Hybrid thought, amused. A lesser being would have been killed in that instant when Nunax had turned to them and attacked abruptly.
Nunax started to rise to her feet, her hair turning as lively. It might have been a nest of serpents. Her glittering cloth swayed to and fro, but remained firmly perched on her body. She turned to the spectators and Skullius finally, and their presence registered to her senses.
Her hostility peaked in an instant.
Future Skullius responded to it promptly.
Thick shrouds of purple-gold, brimming with unfathomable throngs of power layered over Red Rage, Aurolio, Elita and Kenno protectively. They were formed from a mix of Maximum Catalyst and [Just Light].
According to one of the gifts he earned, Skullius could leave and enter as he pleased, but Nunax and the spectators couldn't. Quite like the previous gifts though, this one was only just barely helpful. Perhaps Skullius could leave and get a whole training arc before returning to fight Nunax again if he wished.
But of course, the Taming Appixel had a time-limit after the Six Trials were completed, the rewards for completing them dispensed: a hundredth of a Consternal or 7,2 seconds.
Nunax drew a deep breath as Amras condensed around her body. It even had a bright property to it. The quality of Amras that Deities possessed was inherently different from that of common Divines. Oddly enough, Skullius had learned this first from the Warmoth's Vault when he had first encountered the Warmoth's masterpiece of an armour. A Void rank Treasure.
Even to Future Skullius, it remained a mystery how the Warmoth was able to get access to Treasures when they weren't supposed to exist in the Null Verse. Even more curious than that was the fact that the Colossus Warmoth's Void rank Treasure was capable of expelling Amras, which was also supposed to be a foreign concept to Serenity's Treasure.
With a sigh, Future Skullius summoned his own Amras.
"Keep the Standard Unit System active," he commanded the guidance field and it responded at once, creating sleek, illusory depictions of the respective powers of Nunax and Skullius.
Naturally, the spectators were able to see them as well.
[Nunax : 35,000 Standard Units]
[Skullius : 27,900 Standard Units]
The values were still shocking to Elita. She had begun to critically analyse how much a Standard Unit considered when measuring the strength of a Divine, but had found no answer. The answer to that would tell her just how exactly Skullius was able to increase his strength and enter the realm of Deities earlier.
A Deity was a Divine that had an Ascension Status of 25. That is, when denoted on the guidance field, it would be Broader Existence Phase 25.
Had Skullius increased his Ascension Status with the help some Andori perhaps? But that would go against his contract with AKHASHA which stipulated that he could only grow his Broader Existence through killing other Divines and harvesting AKH units.
The former Paladin Champion groaned. She wished she could see Skullius' status.

Her wish was granted. Skullius, sensing her frustration, chuckled and allowed it.

Your ascension to Divinity has changed your progression.

…!!!
Elita, Kenno and Aurolio were struck dumb with shock, but there were not afforded the time to process what they had just seen. After all, Future Skullius and Nunax made their moves.
Seven great odd shapes glazed with different kinds of jarring lights appeared behind the Deity just when Skullius rushed to one of the royal blue tiles prepared for his convenience.
When the future Hybrid began weaving the 47,201 gestures, Nunax whipped her hand out and pointed at him.
For a moment, the definition of the entire tiled space was enveloped by a intense vermillion light. Everyone was blinded.
But then the light vanished almost as soon as it appeared.
Everything in the tiled space remained the same. Nothing was damaged, or broken.
But the spectators tensed.
Future Skullius was gone!
'Was that an attack?' Aurolio found himself wondering, horror-struck. 'Did it get him?'
His fellow watchers were thinking the same bleak thought. Nunax was a Deity, after all, and at the Standard Unit system depicted, she was stronger than the future Hybrid.
But the shroud of protection around the four remained, they noticed.
The future Hybrid was alive.
An instant later, Skullius seemed to will himself into existence, appearing on a royal blue tile behind Nunax. A sticky layer of darkness was tearing itself away from him.
The Deity turned sharply in his direction, her eyes suffused with more than just beauty. They were bathed in a dark propensity for violence.
But Skullius met her gaze with a calm one and…
"Jadeenis Konilio."
As he said it, the Deity quivered, affected.
