105. Preemptive Strike

...…..

A FEW MOMENTS AGO

Nytri turns to King, "Only Azurians." King makes a disappointed face, Nytri looks at Dialdelios. "Will the Xenos join?"

Dialdelios shakes her head, "No, there's no need. Running around crushing bugs won't be fun."

Nytri shrugs, "Suit yourself." Nytri walks to the 128th floor, she swipes her hand making a rift for herself. The Azurians can also make rifts wherever they are, so they join with coordinates from Nytri to 5 kilometers around Zareth.

Nytri enters the rift to the familiar space of streams of raw destructive energy, she raises her head looking around. She sees a shining beacon from above her, she activates FLIGHT MODE and flies towards the lift.

Nytri looks around her, "Huh? The earth is not directly under the divine realm? Interesting, I'll have to take time to see what the universe is really like." She focuses on the beacon flying at full speed, she feels the presence of her kin following her through the streams.

Nytri grins, "I wonder how things will unfold, do I just rampage or ask politely? The latter will do, I have impeccable manners." She flies closer to the beacon with the Azurians following her. She raises her hand making a circle with her finger. The space above her opens to show the roof of a building, she starts to slow down so as not to crash into it.

Nytri jumps out of the circle into the building, she looks around her fascinated by the technology present. Nytri arrived in a transport terminal of the divine realm, it's how they travel from the divine realm to the mortal realm.

Nytri is in a little chamber with a teleportal disk below her and runes inscribed on it, she instantly memorises them. The room has a gold colour with an ancient theme to it, she sees a big door before her and starts walking to it. She slowly opens the door revealing a bustling community of people moving up and down. People of various features, some beasts, animals, or mix of all. The place is like a huge room with similar chambers Nytri came from on 8 corners, a plaza of some kind, stores dealing in trade, almost like a big market.

Nytri steps out of the room and notices 2 guards by the door she came from. "Halt!" The guards said, one goes closer to her, "Where did you come from?"

Nytri tilts her head, she points at the door she just came from. The guard looks at her, "She's mortal, where is your master?"

Nytri folds her arms and her thoughts, "Oh, just because I'm mortal I'm a slave." Tapping her toes.

A goddess with an entourage is going towards the teleportal Nytri came from, she got to the scene and one of her entourage announced her intention to pass. "Vaitush, primordial goddess of elegance wishes to pass!" the guards stand aside and at attention, Nytri doesn't even care still focusing on the guards.

The entourage repeats the statement and Nytri is still looking at the guards, Nytri rolls her eyes then talks to the guards. "I'm looking for Zareth, can you show me where he is?"

The goddess stands behind Nytri and swings her hand at Nytri's head, "Disgusting mortal!" *THUD*

Nytri raises her hand thinking it's raining, "Wait, it can't rain in here." She turns back to see a shocked primordial goddess behind her. Nytri looks at the entourage, "Sup, can you show me where Zareth is?" she raises a hand for a high five.

"Get your filthy hands off me!" The goddess now takes a sceptre and swings it at Nytri's head. *THUD* the sceptre is on Nytri's head yet no damage.

Nytri brushes the sceptre off, "Hey, that's rude. I also don't get dirty, it's been a whiles since I sweat." She looks at her hand, "There's no blood on it too." She waves her hands, "Anyway, can you show me where Zareth is?"

"Disrespectful." The goddess says, "Bow!" she thinks Nytri is using the protection of a primordial god like her so she wants Nytri to bow and be done with it.

"Bow?" Nytri speaks, "Ohh, now I see what's going on….." her eyes glows, "So a primordial god is that weak. Only level 192, I guess that means you're really old."

The goddess is enraged has a twitch on her face, "Such Insolence!" She swings her hand at Nytri.

Nytri grabs it, "Insolence? You haven't seen anything." Everyone is shocked, the guards leap into action to attack Nytri. Nytri pulls the goddess' arm and grabs her jaw, she rips it from her face and pushes her back. The guards swing their swords to attack Nytri but then something happens when they reach 2 meters out of Nytri's Field of vision. The tip and edges of their swords start to vanish, it turns to dust and is erased from existence. They try to stop but can't, their swords is slowly erased then their hands, chest, head and finally gone.

The entourage of the goddess are shocked, one takes a weapon to attack Nytri but he can't perceive Nytri despite she walking towards them. Some go to help the goddess while she screams in pain *AAAHHHH!*

The entourage looks at Nytri as his thoughts, "Why? WHY?! I see her right in front of me but why do I think she's not, an illusion?" Nytri swipes her hand diagonally and that entourage is sliced in 2 falling dead.

The goddess tries to get up, she can't heal her injury. Nytri grabs her head through the crows, all those outside Nytri's field of vision are erased or have parts of their bodies gone, Nytri pulls on the hair of the goddess and look into her eyes. This draws people's attention.

"I have no reason to attack these guys," Nytri speaks, "But, they attacked me so.....EXPLODE." The goddess freezes, she looks into Nytri's eyes with fear. All the energy in the goddess becomes active, her body ruptures and then *BOOOOOMM*

......….

BACK TO PRESENT MOMENT

The dust clears showing Nytri as the cause. Everyone fell down, some stood up with their weapons ready to fight. Nytri swipes her hands like claws using not energy whatsoever but blades of air are made which sliced and diced everyone standing into pieces. Those on the floor look on with horror.

"So many people…" A trembling gods says, "They all died so easily."

Another god points his hand at Nytri, "MONSTER!"

The non-gods in the place tremble in fear with some having accidents, some of the people get up to run and Nytri walks slowly towards them.

Nytri takes a deep breath in and breathes out speaking, "FE~AR." Everyone freezes as it being held in place, they all take out their weapons and start attacking each other.

Nytri grins, "Mind control through fear, perfect for situations like this." Nytri shrugs, "Well whatever, I'll just read the corpses memories for Zareth." She raises a finger and all the corpses rise before her as some alive people are killing each other. Nytri hums speaking, "Zareth Zareth Zareth Zareth, where are you? Wait, these guys are in league with devils?! Urgh, so they make holy wars so people believe in them and they make champions to fight. I get that you need people to believe in you but come on! Can't you do miracles and stuff, just make rain fall and people believe in you. What's the point of starting wars? Oh, some of these guys eat flesh. Not my problem."

Nytri keeps looking through their memories, "Urgh, so none have seen him? But they did meet his father, Arcturus was it? Well, part two of our 'Date'. I wonder how I should kill his family…..well, since he kill dozens of mine, I think I'll let his family suffer forever." She fakes tears, "That's the only way to heal this broken heart of mine!" She acts dramatic, then stops touching her chest, "Wait, where is my heart? My inside is all foggy like air, I guess my race as Mist Azurian makes my vital organs mist. Safe way to live eh." She smiles.

Nytri walks further to the exit, "How to make this dramatic? Undead gods to fight? No, the fight will take time….I'll just turn to MIST and kill anything stupid enough to enter me." She starts to break off into purple mist, she fills all the rooms in the building and even leaks outside but not far. The snacks mysteriously starts to vanish as she does this along with secret recipes.
