The Past I: Sheree Backstory Chapter 1, Part 5: The Ethereal Apex The ground violently heaved as the fifty massive, grotesque Sacrifice Ethereal monstrosities let out a synchronized, plate-shattering cosmic roar that shook the very foundation of the forest trail. Their heavy black-and-white armored carapaces rippled with glowing neon-yellow mark lines, their asymmetrical wings—one black demon wing on the right, one white angel wing on the left—flaring dynamically as thick, corrupt Ether fumes boiled into the air. Reaper 800: "Alright, Remielle! We've got fifty S-Rank Sacrifice Ethereals on the grid [INDEX]. They are a massive pain in the neck, but our synergy is absolute. Let's show them what happens when they cross our path!" Remielle Dan: "You don't have to tell me twice, Reaper! Drive straight through the center line while I lock down their movements!" The S-Rank battle detonated in a microsecond. Moving with absolute, light-speed velocity, the two supreme fighters operated like a flawless cooperative force. Remielle Dan went airborne first, her white angel wings cutting through the dark-fantasy twilight. She channeled her specialized Lumiflux element, unleashing a spectacular torrent of brilliant white and pink energy sparks that crackled across the sky. Remielle Dan: "Chrono Lumiflux Stasis!" A blinding wave of white-and-pink elemental light erupted from her twin daggers, instantly slowing local time down to an absolute crawl for twenty incoming monsters, trapping them helplessly in slow-motion animation loops. Reaper 800: "Perfect coverage, Remielle! Get ready for a clean wipe!" Winding back his arms with planetary-level physical density, Reaper 800 never reached for a standard weapon forged by the Creator. Instead, he channeled the pure, reality-bending power of his cosmic Path of Soul. In his hands, the energy materialized into a colossal mechanical Scythe weapon glowing with an intense, volatile blue-and-black plasma edge around its circular core. He surged forward into his devastating EX Special Move: QUANTUM SOVEREIGN ERASURE. With a single, world-shattering horizontal slash, a blinding arc of blue-and-black quantum energy tore across the clearing. The strike sliced directly through fifteen Sacrifice Ethereals simultaneously. The atomic structures of the fifteen beasts completely dissolved into digital pixels, instantly deleting them from the current timeline in five seconds flat! The remaining Ethereals launched a ferocious counter-assault, but the squad's teamwork was completely unbreakable. Remielle Dan dived down from the canopy alongside Reaper, their combined white, pink, and black-blue elements causing a massive critical data explosion of bright sparks across the remaining forces until every single health bar hit zero. 💥 CRITICAL-EXPLOSION-BOOM!!! 💥 Exactly five minutes after the first transformation triggered, the entire battlefield went completely silent. All fifty S-Rank Sacrifice Ethereals lay dead, their grotesque forms fully dissolving into harmless yellow sparkles before vanishing entirely into the wind. The five rescued human citizens cautiously stepped out from behind the tactical transport truck, their eyes wide with profound, trembling awe. Remielle Dan: "Whew! Talk about a high-intensity workout! But we completely cleared the field!" Reaper 800: "Listen up. The area is secure, but you cannot stay out here in these woods anymore. From this point forward, we don't trust anyone under this sky. There are probably more of these monsters hiding in the shadow tracks. You are going to follow us straight back to your city layout." Citizen 1: "Yes! Yes, we will follow you anywhere! We will march right behind your truck!" The squad boarded the heavy transport vehicle and drove out from the dead forest trail, leading the surviving citizens straight toward the city borders. As the horizon opened up, the country revealed a hyper-futuristic metropolis filled with towering silver skyscrapers, glowing holographic pathways, and advanced energy spires. Yet, right next door to this massive future city hovered a colossal, swirling black void of pure gravity—a massive, active Hollow sector. 🧪 The Lair of Lord Drago The memory snapshot shifted dynamically, diving deep into the dark, hidden alchemist chamber beneath the fairytale castle layout miles away. Inside the dimly lit, metal-plated laboratory, Lord Drago stood in his true, intimidating form before a massive computer array. He looked at the data files of the intruders. His terminal flashed a massive, red error box when scanning Reaper 800, displaying a completely unknown dark aura element he had never seen in his entire life. Lord Drago's face warped in pure, unbridled anime anger, his green eyes flashing with intense rage as he slammed his fist onto the console desk. Drago: "Well, well... it appears these meddling Void Hunters officially know exactly what I am doing all alone in this fortress, and they have successfully found out what I am using! That smart-alec prick should come forward and face me!" Suddenly, the master computer monitor violently glitched. The screen overclucked with bright crimson data lines as Youkai the Red AI popped up directly on the display terminal. The avatar matched the file perfectly: a glowing white geometric stylized circular iris logo with curved outer spikes, sitting on a deep crimson red and hot pink digital background grid with horizontal electronic monitor scan-lines. Youkai: "Yes... you shall rule this entire future city, Lord Drago. However... never forget that the true owner of this entire world will always be the Creator. Keep your eyes on the blueprint parameters." Drago: "I am most fully aware of that contract, Youkai! And guess who else is coming with the raid squad? It's Remielle Dan, the first-generation Void Hunter!" Youkai: "Oh, her? She is the most easily scared of them all. I imagine that when she finally sees the absolute monstrosity you have created with this potion, she will be completely terrified of what type of Ethereal stands before her. And besides... you are one of them now, Drago. You can fully transform into an Ethereal yourself whenever you please." Lord Drago snarled fiercely, his green eyes narrowing as he plotted his next destructive move on the screen, while the floating red Youkai AI iris pulsed with sinister electronic data code blocks, cementing their shadow world contract.
