The Rise Of Calamity

276 Pandora? Is that you!?

"Well, because of that I don't feel like killing the rest of you" I sighed in disappointment with a mixture of worry within it.

I slowly floated down, finally deactivating my divine eyes and blinking a few times to get used to the new vision that only allowed me to see the elemental particles in the area and everything else that a normal person would see. It was a bit like reverting back to when I only had mana soul eyes, and due to that my vision would be limited too.

Limiting my powers and abilities was something that I had learned to do in the last 6 months after training with Olivia, and not only had that made me find my flaws when fighting, it had shown me that I am quite weak without my power and that any other divine being at my level would probably be able to kill me either due to their experience in fighting or their better-cultivated fighting styles.

In the last 6 months, I had found my flaws when fighting against Olivia, lowering my power level down to hers, and fighting with a staff instead of the bo staff that was currently within my soul space.

At the same time, I had also learned how to move with my armor on, making it much easier to fight stronger opponents, but the problem that came with that was the fact that even though I was considered quite weak on the universal scale of things, I could not find my match on this planet unless I were to attack beasts, and even then I would rather choose not to provoke them for no reason other than wanting to fight something strong.

Anyway, as I descended down, I looked around and quickly picked out some distinct and familiar soul energies fluctuating from the same area.

'Oh fuck...'

[You're looking in the wrong direction. Look 10 o'clock]

I slowly moved my head towards where Hela had told me to look just to see the shock of my week if not the month.

'Them too?' I asked, seemingly distressed

[Yes, them too.]

*Sigh*

Before anyone would walk up to me and ask for anything stupid, I had already disappeared into thin air and appeared in front of my grandmother who I knew was intelligent enough to understand who I was. At the same time, this was also done to make sure my brothers knew that it was me since even when I was in the forest I was not able to talk to them due to my mother not allowing them to see me even on their days off.

"Hey granny" I lilted my head to the right and released calming and soothing soul energy out of my body that immediately calmed her down so she could think about what was happening more rationally.

"P-Pandora?" She asked, her voice trembling and her eyes slightly watery.

"Yeah. Why are you crying?" I asked, this time more out of curiosity than worry. For some reason, I was unable to perceive that there might have been a chance that people in my family might have been worried about me and that I was not the only one who was suffering due to my mother's decision.

"I am just happy" She grasped onto my hand tightly with an iron grip that threatened to never let me go. The grip was weak yet for some reason, I felt like I would never be able to get out of it if she wasn't going to let go.

"Pandora? Is that really you?" Throid asked from the side, seemly confused about what was occurring.

"Didn't I just say that I was?" I was a little pissed off at how I was forced to repeat my words, but I made sure to quickly swallow my anger and even my killing intent that was threatening to flood out after being teased with such a huge amount of soul energy before being blue balled.

'If only I could have gotten all of that soul energy... I doubt that I would have broken through to the next stage of soul cultivation but still, it would have felt really good'

[Don't think about it. I worry about what you might do after thinking about what you could have done, for too long. You might just go on another massacre like the one you did when we went to that town, remember?]

'But imagine all the soul energy! I would feel pleasure like never before' I was almost salivating at the thought of it.

[NO!]

'Okay fine.' I pouted

[I can read your thoughts! No, you are not going to leave when I am asleep! We have been together for almost 6 months, and you still think I can sleep? tsk]

'I  SAID FINE!'

"But how... We looked for you everywhere! We even looked at certain people with the same physiques and body structures as you..."

"As you can see, I am much taller than I was before and much more powerful." I interrupted with the wave of my hand before continuing "Plus, I wear a mask wherever I go so you wouldn't have known it was me" I chuckled lightly.

"Why! Why did you not contact us" My grandmother began to cry, something that I would have never expected to see in my lifetime, let alone now.

"Uh... Granny?" I had begun to panic due to the sudden outburst of tears but thankfully, Throid and Alan seemed to have come to rescue, immediately grabbed her by the arms, and escorted her to her tent.

At the same time, the twins seemed to have come out of nowhere before looking at me with death glares before I had even gotten the chance to say hello to them.

'W-What!? What did I do wrong?'

[They probably don't know who you are]

'But I made it obvious' I tried to argue

[But they are stupid]

'Can't argue with that logic'

I also began to walk towards the tent where they were situated with a slow walk, allowing me to catch a few glances made out of animosity and hatred land on me and one of them happened to the gaze of Gold.

I looked back at her with a raised brow that she could not see, yet she still snorted and quickened her pace, as if she was trying to get as far away as possible from me.

"Quick! Zack, you get a bucket while Zarch, stay here and use some of your water magic to use your water's healing capabilities" Clara's voice rang out of the tent causing me to stiffen for a second and also speed up.

When I was finally in front of the entrance of the tent, I sidestepped and allowed Zack to run out, not seeing me due to me using the assassin's cloak, morphing it into a bra, and simply using it as a way to suppress my aura from being seen by anyone.

When I had finally walked into the tent, everyone within looked at me with complicated gazes while Zarch's turned furious before roaring "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE! YOU ARE THE DEMON, RIGHT!? THE DEMON LILITH!? YOU DO NOT DESERVE A PLACE IN THIS KINGDOM, LET ALONE IN THIS TENT! LEAVE BEFORE I MAKE YOU!"

When my grandmother heard what he had said, she was about to hit him on the head for being stupid but after feeling too weak to move a muscle and realizing that the reason he might be so stupid might be because she hit him in the head too many times, she gave up on her efforts and simply told herself that he would learn from his mistakes.
