Chapter 456: Enter the Class 1 Abstract Entities
—
Godmother raised a hand, her eyes on Neji's throat. "Soul Devour."
A red and black suction force rushed at Neji, and he prepared to block it. Lady Luck appeared just at that time to weave her fingers through the strings of probability once more and cause the technique to miss.
"Annoyance." Godmother turned to Lady Luck, preparing to take her out, but Lady Life stepped beside her to help her.
"You, Ra?" Neji turned to the tall man beside him. The Life Golem turned to him, his expression placid. Neji pointed at Chaos, "Keep her safe, alright?"
"Understood." the Golem slowly nodded.
As for Neji himself, he had a plan—at least he hoped it could be counted as one. He had notified his backup a while ago, but it wasn't here yet. Was the blockage of teleportation too much for-?
"Papa!"
"There you are!"
A voice rang, and Neji looked to the side. A flash of light brought Kurai beside him. Her rich black fur glistened under the star lights as she jumped at his arms.
Although normal teleportation was blocked, it seemed the reverse summon worked. Or maybe it was because she was his familiar? It didn't matter. Kurai must have sensed the desperation of the situation through their Familiar connection so she did her best to come back from Fate World as soon as possible.
"Let's do it, quick!" She urged him and pushed her pinky against his. Light flashed again as Neji and Kurai were reborn—renewed into a new form.
The [Fusion] looked like it failed before it could be completed, but Lady Luck raised a hand to pour Luck essence into him as it changed into succession. The light vanished and Neji came out with a cat tail swirling behind him and cat ears on his head.
[Neji Hado – Level 17676]
The Fusion worked. Neji felt much less pressure from these powerhouses around him.
"How annoying. Cancel Fusion." with a wave of her hand, the Godmother used the same command that Eurynome had used back in the underworld.
However, Neji resisted this command. A thread of pristine white flashed through the air as it tore into two, vanishing as soon as it appeared, and the command failed.
Godmother blinked. "What- ah..."
Neji called forth something to match the Godmother. Kurai had a divinity called the [Death Icon], and Neji had one called the [Dragon Icon]. Neither of them had ever manifested those Divinities into those hexagon symbols, but Neji tried it now.
The cosmos shimmered; stars in the far distance blasted like balloons, making it seem like fireworks, as Neji called forth his willpower into shape.
Two Hexagon shapes slowly began to form above his head, joining with the Joy Icon. Reality glitched and two new Icons formed. Neji's two and Lady Life's one clashed against Godmother's five.
[Ding! Two of your Divinities have evolved and attained the status of Icons. Usually, Divinities are incapable of doing something like this. However, the Gamer System can level up anything. Dragon Icon and Death Icon have evolved.]
But that wasn't enough. Neji clutched his hand around Ea, the Sword of Rapture, the Sword Before Swords, the Blade that existed before the concept of Swords came to be. Neji channeled his willpower through Ea, and tried to call forth another symbol.
