Zeke wouldn’t have imagined that he would meet his demise just like that, so did Dexter. In his eyes, his father was the strongest black magic, who couldn’t be beaten. He was a perfect example of power.
The plan from Decratic was clear that Zeke would inflict black magic, in which it would affect her and it would be easier for Zeke to get the luna.
However, they didn’t count for her rage, or rather... Zeke and Dexter didn’t count it. Because there was no way Decratic didn’t know what kind of result that would happen if you pushed her too far.
Zeke was an important pawn, but Decratic’s main goal was always Na. Iris in extent.
Lu had recognized it earlier that Zeke was the second pillars and Lou had showed it what happened when you destroyed the pillar. The backlash of his power and that was what happened to Iris.
The moment she killed Zeke, she experienced the backlash of her power.
At first, it felt like her whole body was being burned, the lightening around her went awry, her power was in disarray. Not to mention the divine power and the black magic within her clashed against one another.
Iris felt her inside was being ripped apart, as if there were claws that shredded her. The pain was unbearable, she couldn’t even scream, while her surroundings was so bright. It was very bright until it was blinding.
Iris couldn’t even sense any direction, whether she was being laid down on the ground or she was standing up. Everything was confusing and painful.
However, from outside, this blinding light that Iris saw actually very destructive. It killed everything in a strong shockwave, the monsters died, turned into ashes, the knights nearby didn’t even know what they were facing when they met their demise, even the shield protection of the magic users didn’t work.
Elder Dandolf created a portal to save himself and the other two elders, only then they were be able to escape this catastrophe.
The expand of her backlash was so great, the backlash reached the second fortress and killed the monster there.
Rei and Dexter escaped, while the black beast used the black wisp as a shield, but it was not enough. Its fur burned and it was apparent that he would turn into dust if this continued. The black wisp that shielded him faded and it roared in pain when the light touched its flesh, it turned into dust. The process was slow, but certain, as the beast kept resisting...
On the other hand, just a while before this blinding light appeared, a certain merchant was waiting for his death, but it didn’t come.
Lou waited for the agony, the pain from being eaten alive, yet as it turned out, there was no pain. He was not sure, whether he didn’t feel the pain or he simply died without feeling anything, just like how he prayed.
But when he opened his eyes, he saw the crows flew above him, just like the last time he saw them, but neither of the crows touched him.
