Theocracy Encounters (7)

"Caste Triple Maximize Magic [Flare Burst]!" The God of fire roared, signaling the beginning of the fight… The true beginning. 

Landing directly on target the spell exploded with a destructive force, sending shock waves throughout the castle. A faint, yet growing rumbling sound could be heard. The four gods got into formation while the god of fire drank a mana potion. 

"Did you get her?" The god of Life asked, trying to see through the plume of smoke. 

"You idiot! If she was that easy to kill, do you think she would have been the number 1 druid in Yggdrasil?" The god of Earth snapped, preparing his own spells. "[Earth's Protection!]" He chanted five times, once to include the golem. 

"Come out Demon! I know that wasn't nearly enough to kill you." The god of Wind shouted, preparing his shield and taunt skills. A bead of sweat dripped down his brow… What is this terrifying sensation? 

"If that's all the fire power you can muster, you're in some serious trouble." Night Silver mockingly stated, cracking her neck. "I also really don't like being called a demon…" She said, as her hair fluttered in her view. "And look… At… This…" She screamed. "YOU SINGED MY BEAUTIFUL HAIR!" She bellowed, empowering her voice with a passive nature skill. 

The rumbling began growing faster, occasionally having distinct moments of cracking, with the ever rare sounds of collapse and falling objects. It was a rather odd turn of events and one that led the gods questioning things again. 

"How did that spell do this much damage to the castle? If it could do that, then surely it would have obliterated her in a single hit." The god of Fire noted. Surely, I couldn't have done that myself, could I? 

"No, something is different… Even the Golem is struggling. And I feel heavy." The god of Earth said, looking around. 

"GRAVITY MAGIC!" The God of Life shouted, realizing the signs once the pieces became clear. 

"WHAT! But, that's an arcane spell!!!!!!!" The God of Wind shouted, now objectively terrified. We have nothing to deal with gravity magic. Shit! This might very well be impossible… 

"Don't worry, the gifts that we were given in the way of World Class Items are helping us resist it for some reason…" The God of Life mentioned, noticing the difference. "We'd be crushed by now otherwise." He explained. 

"Not bad, you figure it out. But Gravity Magic is not locked behind the Arcane arts. You're even dumber than I took you for, even after this terrible blunder… Arcane Arts seek to mimic natural phenomena in their own way. To bend to their own desires." Night Silver explained. "I am a Druid of the highest caliber. Druids master the forces of Nature. Do you really think the strongest forces of nature would be beyond my scope?" She taunted as she felt insulted at the mere notion she would be incapable of this. 

"Ahaha, Uhm, how about we just put all of this past us and go back to being friends…" The god of Life asked, cowering now that he knew just how fucked they truly were. 

"Yeah… I'm killing you first." Night Silver said, and moved at incredible speed.

Night Silver had made moves to punch right through the god of life's face. However, while she was capable of speed blitzing almost anyone from the game. Tanks had a special ability that would allow them to move instantly, once. It had an incredibly long cooldown as well. 

The God of wind, using this guaranteed block moved with his shield raised to tank the blow. However, in that same instance, Night Silver's delicate looking fist came into contact with his shield creating a hole straight through it, landing on his cheek, sending him hurtling into where the wall meets the ceiling. 

The god of Life pissed himself… The look he saw in Night Silver's eyes was clear and precise… She is going to kill me… I don't want to die! HUMANS ARE SUPERIOR! ALL THE SACRED TEXTS SAID AS MUCH!

"Scared of an elven woman, why? Aren't you superior?" Night Silver teased, completely unfazed by the others staring her down. "Oh, I get it now, you're superior at being utterly useless and terrified when it actually matters. Even if I were to be a demon, at least that's better than what you are." She said, as she walked up to the god of Life. 

Being at point blank range, Night Silver pulled her arm back and straightened her fingers, imitating a spear with her hand. Using all of her stats, she pierced the god of life's body. She didn't poke through the other side… No, she had arced her arm up and through the lungs, gently stroking a still beating heart… One going a mile a minute. 

There was a moment where the two just stared into the other's eyes. Like an entire conversation was taking place… The god of Life had his will to live drained, as the tingling of gentle and delicate fingers wrapped around his heart. Slowly and painfully, squeezing the life out of the god of life. Then… 

"You… Are… A Demon…" The God of Life declared with his final breaths… coughing up blood only to fall slumped over Night Silver's arm, dead and unmoving. 

"No, I am the only god here. You are nothing more than pretenders to divinity." Night Silver said, ripping the god of life's heart out from his body. She massaged it with other hand… "How could this thing ever hold such a terrible feeling towards others? It's simply unthinkable. Gods shouldn't be fascist, they should be warm, kind, loving, and accepting of all feeling creatures." She said, crushing the heart into a paste spewing from her now closed hand, dripping with blood. 

"You demon! How did you burn through his HP like that?!" The god of earth panicked. 

"Simple, but it's not like you're going to live long enough to find out…" Night Silver said, blitzing the god of earth to appear behind him. "Because you're next" She said in a chillingly cold voice. 

"What?! HOW! Such speed is nearing the level of that detestable raid boss! How do you have such speed?" The god of earth complained. 

"Never underestimate the strength revealed by a guardian mother, especially when seeking vengeance for her children's demise." Night Silver stated, keeping the true answer mildly ambiguous.
