CHAPTER 4:ECHOES OF THE FALLEN

 The floor under him dropped landing in the corner of the colosseum standing in one of the altars its runes glowed as if entrapping him it was as if he was scanned , he felt naked exposed without the power of his false ascension state [AMBER] he was stuck with his basic skillset abilities native to the basic functions of his own body. the light of several Olympic torches the size of skyscrapers illuminated the coliseum with a dreary red light. His perception seemed to slow down as an sense of foreboding filled his heart, his blood chilled as his muscles tensed his spine tingling , silver eyes glowing this was something he hadn't felt in a long time , it was fear , pure all encompassing soul chilling dread.

In front of him was a being clad in black and red armor in crimson energy the being was massive having dwarfed him sin its immense stature its four eyes emitting light from the openings in its helm a hollow smile seen from its blackened almost mechanical mouth piece, a heavy giant fist struck him crashing against his arms folded in a defensive position sending him flying as he skidded across the arena floor as he planted his feet producing spikes from his soles that he tried to slow his momentum with. He saw the damage to his arms shattered in that instant the mangled purple chunks of flesh sending rippled of pain up his bruised body his hands where gone nothing but bloody stumps he looked at the bloody path carved from his passing, he looked at the entity before him analyzing its structure as the silver Norvanite rose to the surface of his skin as it reshaped his arms in that instant the thing infront of him was massive standing at 15 meter tall with four arms and large gauntleted fists twice the size of his body that oozed with red and black energy which formed a miasma that kept its surroundings hidden he looked side to side increasing his sensory range he was hit with data mental information detailing what these things were they were similar to his vestiges but stronger far stronger and they were not of his own creation the

 [ANTARE]

Arc knew that in such scenarios that there would always be more than one enemy that's when he noticed another whose hands were on the ground all four of them another hovering in the air with ethereal angelic metallic wings and 3 eyes tracking his movements seemingly docile with unnatural bloodlust emitting with cyan energy that faded to dark red and black, blades as long as he was tall appeared from its forearms and its blades wings while another figure reminiscent of a barbarian golem with high powered armor it held a combination weapon a dual axe and glaive compared to the rest it stood as a titan it stood massive compared to the rest a titan of great size. 

He began to run, he began to noticing 3 things, activation static which held back other components of the altar as sudden thoughts and pressure filled his mind, there were eleven more , fifteen in total 3 greater entities as he could see across the coliseum with twelve minor entities he was hit by one , one that took his arms as he saw the unknown language in the air on a tablet of energy the fact of him.

"FORSAKEN BY CREATION AT HIS WEAKEST ,THE LORD WAS VANQUISHED AS HE WORLD WENT TO HELL, CORRUPTION IS RAMPANT THROUGHOUT ALL HIS CREATION JUST AS THE PURITY OF HIS CREATION WAS ALTERED AND PEVERTED, UNNATURAL JUST AS YOUR CREATION WAS THE REPRESENTATION OF THE GODS THE RIVALED HIM AND SURPASSED HIS POWER.

 THE ANTARE WISH TO DESTROY YOU ENDURE!!!!

As the same pressure came upon him again ,as suddenly the ground below him and crack as he was shredded by a multitude of spikes in that instant as he woke up again in the original spot he stepped into the circle around he arena. He saw his body and his blood on the ground infront of him , shredded, he then heard a counter go off as he looked at the rings around the temple one of the slits glowed red, a death counter, he said to himself as he began moving his body was fixed currently and he had to figure out a way out of his mess, for now he was functionally immortal seeing that he survived . his first death yet the sight of his own shredded corpse scared him the blood and viscera wasn't what scared him the fact that even death would not erase everything that made him , him a demon of a man a false clone of true neohuman capability that subsisted of consumption and devouring all ura and uratsu he came in contact with, the crimes he committed borderline warcrimes while he was under the influence of the Amaterasu when his emotions were suppressed under cold robotic logical efficiency a machine a methodical megalomaniac the genocide of the southern factions their families their families razing their regions to the ground there screams that he did not care about in the instant he performed those acts the suffering he caused to fuel his power sent to destroy and pillage lives like drops of water forming a river which fills a dam. He wouldn't die here with this this revelation he would end the organization that made him. death to the AMATERASU.

He began to sprint in alternating directions as he narrowly dodged attacks to his person through his skill alone to focused beams of energy of extreme power and heat fired from the cannon in the arm of the antare of reformation who fired the blasts from a distance they moved slow or slightly above or relative to his full power as he figured out something else of the altars temple one of the beings didn't move it was seated on a throne reminiscent of a sarcophagus, it looked damaged missing several of its parts , parts present on each of the functioning antare the false representatives of of the gods that betrayed the absolute being .As he realized this the antare became hostile as they charged at him the corresponding pieces turned a glowing gold as they rushed at him 

 REFORM THE STATUE AND ESCAPE.

That's what he had to do as he moved pulsing a concentrated blast of ura from his back and joints to propel him at the antare using a ura enhancement technique developed by the Amaterasu URAULTRA.

His speed multiplied tenfold using highspeed physical techniques

He moved the sole use of the technique interrupted as he was grabbed by the chest and electrocuted by the antare representing the herald of energy Evaltol. 

He came back again as the death counter gained a second point.
