Gate Guardian - Song of the Frozen Soul

PHASE 33 - A FATHERLY DATE THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN

PHASE 33 - A FATHERLY DATE THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN

Nothing can describe a woman who bathed on her lover’s blood.

Naomi was on her knees, unable to react. All she had is this astounded face as she stares upon her butchered husband’s guts right in front of her face. Tears crawled to her cheeks non-stop.

“K-Kristoff…”

“Oh, I’m sorry. Did I make your hair dirty?” Helena made a smirk. “Here, I’ll clean it for you.”

Helena was about to kill another person, but...

“<Aether Switch>!!!”

Rikkun switched places with Naomi, and as soon as he closed his distance, he made a swift side slash towards the psychopath swordswoman’s neck. But the invisible barrier is still effective, which means Helena is invulnerable from attacks.

“What the heck did you just do!?” Rikkun cried. “Why did you kill Kristoff! He didn’t do anything bad to you!!!”

“Don’t worry, once the <Song of Salvation> is sung, he will return back from the dead. Well, and fine. The same goes for your Amy…”

“Why you!!!” Rikkun’s wrath controlled him over. “<Moonlight Waltz>!!!”

There was a blink of darkness, and fifty-three silver slashes were made. But when the light returned, Helena was unfazed and unscratched.

Helena’s reply was a single greatsword swing. Rikkun is lucky that he predicted the focal point of the attack and blocked it, but the excessive force of the slash drove him away!

“Gah!”

Helena tilted her head with a wide smile, making her the perfect serial killer that could stop anyone’s heart the moment you see her bloodthirsty eyes.

Her mechanical arm extended, reaching out Kristoff’s remains, or more specifically, his torn chest. One silver God Core was caught by her dark fingers and absorbed it like a popping bubble.

“Aaaaah~” Helena made a satisfied moan as a sudden surge of power enters her veins.

Then…

Her killing glance shifted to the acolyte who is possessing the God Core of Mars. The poor acolyte trembled in fear as he fell down on his buttocks.

“<Mercury’s God Core Release: Wings of Light>!!!”

Bluish hologram wings grew from the sword princess’s back as she gained the same power as Kristoff’s phasing and speed. She dashed forward like a raging bull. Rikkun tried to intercept her by casting <Moonlight Waltz> again, but his attacks just passed through.

“What the-!!!!” Rikkun cried.

When Helena is close enough to the acolyte, she immediately used her alien arm to pierce through the poor man’s chest. She immediately withdrew it, and now she’s holding the orange ball of light: The God Core of Mars.

The safekeeping acolyte had his heart butchered, resulting in his immediate death.

This fear we’re all feeling… It’s the same as the Christmas Raid. Helena is now like Aeternos… or even worse...

“Now all that’s left… is to kill the last fragment of the Frozen Soul in this world.”

Helena locked eyes with me, and the coldest chill entered to my spine. Scared as I am, I hid my staff and materialized my gauntlets, ready to fight back. I might not be able to fight five gods inside a person, but I won’t go down without a battle.
