Unaware of the fact that the apparition had alerted some powerful beings.
At the same time as they appeared, in a place which embodies the name holiness, there was white everywhere, white pantheon-like houses on floating clouds, exotic plants everywhere, and you could see people flying with beautiful pairs of wings, trumpet singing.
In the heart of this place was the biggest building on the biggest cloud, a simple throne was installed at the center of this majestic building, and sitting on this throne was the most powerful being in this realm, she had six pairs of wings, cascading golden hair, and cross-shaped golden eyes, there was no need to waste time describing her beauty.
Her crossed-shaped eyes stared down in the mortal world, where she felt a familiar presence suddenly. Her heart jolted and her monotone eyes seemed to have regained a bit of liveliness, she soon instructed.
''Go down and investigate.'' she snapped her fingers, and a golden light pierced through the attendant who appeared, a three-winged being. He understood what to do and disappeared immediately following the order received.
While she felt a familiar presence, she also felt another sickening presence besides it, it wasn't what she was thinking. She closed her eyes to meditate. Things were about to become chaotic; she could feel it, and this time, for sure, it would be different. Things had changed.
°°°
At the same time in another realm opposite to this one, the sky was colored red, chaotic energy and monsters roaming everywhere.
In the heart of this realm stood a majestic black castle, and in the heart of this castle, sitting on an ancient dragon bone head was a man, with two curved horns and a thick tail. His eyes were purple; he embodied oppressiveness, he felt a familiar presence as well, and smiled.
He also sent someone to investigate and inform him of the result.
''Things are about to change after a while,'' he mumbled while looking at the portrait of a certain gray-haired woman wielding a bastard sword facing an army of flying beings in front, the dragon she slayed lying on her feet. She wore a savage grin.
•••
Back to the couple's location.
''So, are we gonna head to the civilization, honey?"
''Well, let me try something first.''
Gabriel closed his eyes, his focus increased to the extreme, he could feel different energy filling the air unlike the air, he knew it was mana particles, once he familiarized himself with these mana particles he focused his attention elsewhere, within his body, into his mana core which seemed bottomless, taping into it he could control it at will, he spread his mana all around him, at first 2 meters, then 5 meters then 20 meters, it keeps growing, soon it covered the entire forest, each living organisms within his mana perception range materialized in the illusionary 3D Map in his mind, countless information was sent to his brain, even though he reincarnated into the perfect body it was still taxing on him.
''Guh!"
The overload of information made Gabriel grunt in pain. His body began to tilt forward, and he almost lost focus. Fortunately, Lilith was there to stop him with her body. He inhaled her body's scent while she gently patted him on the back to alleviate some of the pain.
''Relax, honey!"
Her action and words seemed to work, as he regained his focus, his mana perception's range increased to an incredible range(more than 120km radius), and he was able to find a city before running out of mana. He immediately cut off the mana perception's skill.
''Huff! Huff!'' he panted heavily as he leaned into his girlfriend who embraced him lovingly.
''I find a big city not too far from here, eastward.''
''Good, let's prepare and head there.''
''I think so, but first let's take care of the incoming monsters.'' Gabriel, who had recovered, informed her about the incoming monster's attack; they seemed drawn toward the couple. Maybe they are trying to mark their territory.
Upon learning this information, Lilith's lips curved upward.
''Wow! Time to crush some bugs!"
As soon as she finished her sentence, footsteps came from all around them.
Dun~ Dun~
The first monster to appear was a humanoid type, two and a half meters t all ogre wielding a stone axe. Its vicious eyes landed on the couple, and the monster grinned, sure to savor crushed them.
Countless scars crisscrossed its body, a testament to its wild life.
''I'm taking this one!" Lilith declared before moving, her speed was so fast that it left afterimage, in an instant she reappeared before the startled monster.
''!"
Crack!
She clenched her fist, which made a crackling sound. Strength coursed through it. She punched the monster's head before it could regain its focus. It was fast and it was deadly.
Boom!
Her punch blasted the head apart; it vanished entirely, leaving the headless body to fall backward.
''Too weak!" She looked disappointed, but it was short-lived because there was plenty of targets all around. She moved and reappeared before another ogre with a kick to the head. It broke its neck. She spun to deliver another kick at another monster, another instant death. Her physical strength was terrific.
The charging monsters stopped in their tracks, fear apparent in their eyes. The more monsters she killed, the crazier her expression became, and the air around her became more chaotic.
Looking at his girlfriend enjoying herself, he felt his blood pumping through his veins, he had to join the fun.
Unlike his woman, he didn't go physical but chose to use a tool instead, while he could basically use all elements, his affinity with the Light and Time elements was the strongest. He just willed and created a sword made of light, putting strength into his legs he shot forward like an arrow, he slashed horizontally to bisect an orc in two, the sword changed hand to slice another monster in two.
Upon seeing that they couldn't kill the couple, they chose to swarm them, three monsters, two ogres, and one giant gray wolf charged at Gabriel. He stopped the attack from the first ogre while with his other hand, he aimed at his back and fired a condensed light bullet which pierced through the gray wolf's skull, and its body stopped moving. He then kicked the first ogre in the knee before smashing his fist into the monster's head; the skull was crushed.
He thrusted his sword on his right and poured more mana into it. It elongated, piercing its torso, cleaving a part of its heart. It died soon after.
Meanwhile, Lilith was dancing joyfully between the monsters, kicking, punching, each strike was an instant death, she shrank space to move between them, facing the biggest monster, a two-headed ogre with blue and red heads, the red head spewed flame but she disappeared and reappeared behind the monster before throwing a big punch.
Crack!
Space cracked as the punch seemed to disappear and reappeared inside thmonster's's body, its heart to be exact, instantly crushing the heart with the chaotic force behind it.
She moved backward to evade the falling monster's body.
She wore a crazed smile, she wasn't satisfied, her eyes seemed to say I want more, bring me more monsters to slaughter. Something inside her seemed to crave slaughter.
Seeing his girlfriend's unusual state, he knew he had to intervene.
''Deep breath, babe, deep breath!"
His words seemed to snap her out of her unusual state. She breathed in and out slowly, the red glow that was about cover even her white iris disappeared. She embraced Gabriel, sealing his lips with hers. They shared a deep kiss.
In that kiss was the sweetness of passion, a million loving thoughts condensed into a moment.
''Share the location of the city with.'' She stopped the kiss for a moment. Gabriel nodded before sealing her lips this time, as they kissed passionately he shared the city location with her. They vanished soon after.
