From Human to Skeleton: Revived with Infinite System Crystals

Chapter 167: 3 on 1



Ty, overwhelmed with anger and frustration, couldn't contain himself any longer. "Stop your bullshit! What have you done to Earth, and why do you continue to torment me?" he yelled, demanding answers from Erebos.

Erebos, his face turning to one of annoyance, replied with a cold, cutting remark. "I see you have access to so much power, yet it is the reason for your stagnation. You are too nice and unwilling to do what's needed," he said, criticizing Ty's reluctance to embrace a more ruthless approach.

Refusing to listen any further, Ty stood up, his determination burning fiercely. He slammed his fist into the ground, creating a circle around Erebos. An intense gravity field activated, trapping Erebos within its pull. With flames propelling from his feet, Ty rushed towards Erebos, his voice resolute. "I won't be letting you get away this time," he declared.

The injured soldiers around them could only stand in shock, witnessing the incredible display of power. Ty, with an intense pressure building around him, leaped above Erebos, attempting to slam his staff down on his adversary.

At the same moment, Nana joined the attack, unleashing a barrage of water bullets towards Erebos. Her actions were accompanied by a scream, a mix of anger and determination, as she too aimed to stop Erebos.

The battlefield was a scene of intense power and destruction. Ty, his determination unwavering, continued to advance towards Erebos. His skeletal fist, ablaze with black flames, contrasted starkly against his black armor, which was outlined in red and shone brilliantly in the sunlight.

As he moved forward, the cracks in Ty's skull became more pronounced, a physical testament to the strain and ferocity of the battle.

Despite being caught in Ty's gravity field, Erebos displayed a terrifying level of power. With an effortless motion, he lifted his arm, unleashing a massive ball of white heat that resembled a white nova. This incredible force of energy erupted with such intensity that it shook the very ground beneath them.

The impact of Erebos's attack was immediate and devastating. Todd, who was in the vicinity, was pushed away from the strike. The water bullets Nana had fired were instantly vaporized by the intense heat. Ty, caught in the path of this overwhelming power, bore the brunt of the attack.

His skeletal frame was scorched by the burning heat, and he was violently thrown backward, crashing through several trees and creating a massive upheaval of dirt and grass in his wake.

Ty, groaning from the exertion and pain, struggled to his feet. Despite the severe damage to his skeletal frame, he managed to stand up, his bones audibly restructuring themselves. A sigh of relief escaped him as he regained his composure. His attention then turned to Erebos, who was casually strolling towards him, checking a watch that was emitting an orange light.

"And what is that watch, anyways?" Ty inquired, curious despite his weariness.

Erebos, looking at the watch, responded, "Another trinket for bringing you to the Demon King." His tone suggested a deeper involvement in the cosmic schemes and Ty's destiny.

Erebos then delved into a bit of history, shedding light on the nature of the Demon King. "While the Demon King isn't very demon-like in human mythology, that's mainly due to his father being killed by the Angelic king during the last 12 realm war, and him adopting a new path for his realm," he explained.

This revelation painted a picture of a complex character, one shaped by past events and conflicts.

He then shifted the conversation back to Ty's situation. "However, he has his own goals for you that do not align with what I want from you. And due to this, along with the issues going on with Earth, you won't survive long enough to get your original body back," Erebos stated, hinting at conflicting agendas and Ty's precarious position in these plans.

Erebos then hinted at a necessary change. "So, a change of scenery will have to be done, but at the same time, the people here still need to develop," he said, indicating a shift in strategy or location might be imminent. As he spoke, his fist began to erupt in orange energy, his blazer outfit absorbing the glow.

The tension on the battlefield escalated as Erebos revealed his intentions to Ty. "Don't worry about any of that. You will have plenty to worry about for yourself. You have relied on your partner's power for too long, so to ensure your proper growth, I will be taking HIM away from you," Erebos declared, indicating a significant shift in Ty's journey.

Ty, confused, responded, "Taking my what? You mean that constant voice that begs to take over?"

"I suppose so. I don't know too much about it, but it's a key piece in your final power. But for now, you've been relying on it far too much," Erebos replied, his orange energized hand poised to thrust toward Ty's skeletal frame.

Reacting swiftly, Ty caught Erebos's fist with his own, struggling against the powerful force. In that intense moment of struggle, Nana intervened from behind, releasing a barrage of finger snaps accompanied by explosions around Erebos.

However, Erebos, unfazed by the assault, slammed his foot into the soil, sending a wave of dirt flying around him. With a swift motion of his free hand, he transformed it into energized stone, launching it towards Nana. The resulting attack opened cuts all around her, and a piece of stone pierced her upper chest, causing her to skid along the ground, struggling to stand.

The battle was a brutal display of power and resilience. Ty, fighting to protect himself and Nana, faced a formidable adversary in Erebos, who wielded his powers with both precision and ruthlessness. The stakes were high, with each move and countermove carrying the weight of their intertwined destinies.

The intensity of the battle reached a new peak as Erebos delivered a powerful kick to Ty's skeletal skull, sending him crashing into a tree which then fell onto him. With Ty temporarily incapacitated, Erebos turned his attention towards Nana, walking towards her with a cold, calculating demeanor.

As Erebos approached, Nana, despite her injuries and the blood leaking around her, defiantly declared, "I will kill you no matter what." Blood trickled from her lips, a testament to her resilience and determination in the face of overwhelming odds.

Erebos, seemingly unfazed by her threat, began to manipulate the blood around her. He held his hand above her, forming the blood into a hovering, ominous mass. At that critical moment, Todd intervened, rushing in with his staff, attempting to strike Erebos. Erebos, however, effortlessly dodged the attack and countered, aiming to slice the blood at Todd's neck.

In a display of quick reflexes and defense, Todd placed his hand in the way of the attack. The blood assault instantly bounced off, shattering into a splatter once again, showing Todd's ability to counter Erebos's deadly manipulation of blood.

The scene was a harrowing display of Erebos's cruel and calculated nature, contrasting with the courage and determination of Ty's allies. Despite the odds stacked against them, Nana and Todd continued to fight, showcasing their unwavering commitment to their cause and their loyalty to Ty.
