Psycho X Psychic

Meanwhile, not far into the distance. Into a place that Nick was kindly familiar with. These are the fields where Teren has his Evil Spirits residing. Right now, a cloaked person dropped from the sky. The strange thing was, or the expected outcome rather, blood, bones, flesh, and organs splattered when the person reached the ground.

This gory scene was soon enveloped by a mysterious power. There was still a beating heart and every piece of flesh and bones were attracted to it. As if by magic, they all flew towards where the heart is, under the cloak, and the person who just 'died' was instantly revived.

The slim white limbs were able to move again. As if nothing happened, the person looked around. She was the Nuke Empress based on the same pattern on her minimalist mask.

"So this is inferno farm that man was talking about."

The Empress whispered while feeling the 'evilness' around the area. The Evil Spirits that were trying to attack people and steal their bodies have taken her as their new target. But as soon as they got close to her, fear struck these steel-willed Spirits. Unable to continue further, they have no choice but to retreat back to the ground.

However, not all of them did.

"Such strong Evil Spirits."

The Empress was undaunted by the pressure and malice that was being directed towards her in all directions by these invisible beings. When they got too close to finally interact with her, she actively fought back, pushing them away.

For a moment there, she was in disbelief.

"One teenager was able to control all of them and keep them here? I haven't met this Devil Himself but he surely isn't some grunt. But to be the greatest threat, I don't think so."

The Nuke Empress went toe on toe with the Evil Spirits. Just one of them was able to kill Nick if Teren was not there. However, she alone was able to fend them off without exerting much effort.

That is not to say that the Evil Spirits are weak there. Normally, only Great Spirits wouldn't be scared of her.

A few moments later, amidst the 'taming phase' where the Empress shows the gap between their will, another figure have arrived the scene. It took the Empress a short while before she entered a state of extreme vigilance, scaring the other Evil Spirits entirely off in just a blink of an eye.

"Who are you?"

'I didn't even notice this woman's arrival.'

The Empress thought before realizing and being dazzled by the beauty this newly arrived woman have. Even she, who have deep experience was temporarily swayed by this woman's external appearance.

'... how beautiful...'

She thought.

"Hello... I'm Nature."

Nature said with an emotionless face, however, her tone sounded polite as if she tried too hard. Her politeness, awkwardness, and beauty made the Empress lower her guard a little.

Noticing this, the Empress consciously put them up. For someone to lower her guard so easily, the more she should put them up!

"Nature? Who are you?"

"Ah... excuse me, you may have known me as the Ancient or... the Ancient Prophet."

Nature innocently said but at the next moment, there was a bright flash of light before Nature put up her hand, making the light from the Empress disappear.

"Please, don't do that. You may kill yourself and everyone else in a fifty kilometer radius."

"W-what!? My Great Spirit!"

The Nuke Empress shouted in disbelief and dumbfoundedness. Soon, she was shrouded with fear. When she learned that this woman was the Ancient Prophet, number two on the AWR, she intended to unleash her full potential.

She didn't need verification.

Innocent lives may die for naught but the chance of letting go a being with a capability of global destruction, possibly wiping out the humanity, will be more severe.

But there was one thing that this woman who claimed to be the Ancient Prophet made the Nuke Empress tremble.

'You may kill yourself and everyone else in a fifty kilometer radius.'

'I haven't tried my strongest explosion but I'm confident that it would be stronger than the Emperor of Bombs, the Tsar Bomba. Therefore, fifty kilometers of radius might be accurate. However, only I should know that.'

Behind that mask, the Empress was gritting her teeth in stupor.

"What do you mean everyone else?"

The Empress asked.

"What do I mean?"

But it doesn't seem like Nature was able to figure out what she meant by that question.

"Are you saying that you wouldn't die if I unleash my full power? And that... I may also die?"

"Yes, it might lightly wound me and you will die. Your Great Spirit of Immortality have seem to be abused. Great Spirits have their limits. You're not a Heavenbeing, after all."

"Haha... you even know my Great Spirit of Immortality. And about my Great Spirit of Destruction, did you... do something to it?"

"To it? Yes, I did something to her. You people don't really treat the spirits of your ancestors quite well. Although they can't communicate with you, it doesn't mean that they are no longer humans. They just don't have the physical body to do so."

Nature replied in a nonchalant manner.

At this point, the Empress have given up. If the Ancient can restrict her Great Spirit of Destruction, that also means that her Great Spirit of Immortality can no longer be depended. Without her Spirits, the Nuke Empress could only be a simple girl right now.

"Don't be afraid of me. If I want to kill you, I would've restricted you Great Spirit of Immortality as well. Once gone, your multitudes of diseases will all attack you and you will die in seconds, if not on the spot."

"Diseases..."

The Empress felt bitter hearing that as she muttered.

"So... are you here to destroy Teren's 'farm'?"

"..."

"I see, you have a tight lips. That's very commendable. Don't worry, I'm just here because I want to talk. It's because I have something to tell you. As for Teren's 'farm'."

Nature glanced at the far fields before turning towards the cloaked Empress once again.

"Did you just break your fingers?"

"..."

"Ahh... I see, so you wanted to know if I'm lying or not. So what did you realize?"

The Empress felt her hand again and they were fully recovered.

"You're not lying."
