Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 749 Volume 4 Teaser: Echoes of the Void

|?Tier 8 Spatiotemporal Magic! ?|

The Faux True Voice of the Celestial Deity echoed throughout the area, resounding in the ears of all present.

Since the moment Evan saw the Tier 7 magic wielded by EOTD, he had always been curious about Higher Tiers of Magic. Now, beholding Tier 8 Magic for the first time, he wondered.

'Is this the Height of Magic?'

Unfortunately, he did not have the chance to admire the intricacies and magnificence of the 8-ringed spell circle, after all, the target of that Tier 8 Spell was none other than Evan himself.

For the Lower Existence Evan, merely being targeted by a Tier 8 Spatiotemporal spell constricted the very fabric of spacetime around him, completely sealing his movements.

This was merely a by-product of the spell targeting him, not even its primary effect.

|?HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!?|

The Fallen Celestial Deity laughed manically as his power surged, his level increasing every second as he rapidly approached the peak of Transcendence.

Waves of celestial energy emanated from him, sending shockwaves that hurled Evan's companions backwards, inflicting grievous injuries upon them.

Divinity flowed through his energy circuits, seeping out of his body and into the Tier 8 circle hovering behind him as a hidden puppeteer pulled his strings unbeknownst to all.

The golden chains of causality stretched out from the void and restrained the limbs of the goddess Artemisia, constraining her movements. Despite her visible efforts to escape, the chains tightened inexorably with each struggle.

Her face twisted into a scowl as she directed a fierce glare towards the Celestial Deity emanating a bright light from his being, so intense it banished all shadows, rendering Kuro's abilities nearly powerless.

The intense light was accompanied by scorching heat that melted Milena's ice and caused her water to evaporate instantly.

The Demon of Greed was down on one knee, blood marring the left side of his face, and his left arm's bones shattered to pieces.

Roselia wasn't too far from him, similarly wounded with a gaping hole where her shoulder blade should be, and vivid red blood flowing freely.

Blood dripped from the corners of Laurene's eyes and her vision blurred. Unfortunately, she was facing the Celestial Deity when the Tier 8 spell manifested behind him and her Mystic Eyes automatically began analysing it as they did with his other spells.

However, the current Laurene was far too weak to analyse a spell for Higher Existences, even with her Mystic Eyes of Truth, as such the potent magic and celestial energy struck her with a fierce backlash.

David found himself in an equally dire, if not graver, predicament, his eye slashed by the spear wielded by the 'Battle Celestial'.

Kayla's golden lightning fizzled out into oblivion and the last embers of Amy's flames burned out as both spirits were forced to their knees by the oppressive pressure of the Transcendent Celestial energy.

Behind them all was a blonde, sapphire-eyed girl radiating waves of ether that enveloped everyone in a soft green glow.

A trickle of blood ran from her nose, down her lips, and into the pool of crimson liquid beneath her feet as she strained to heal them simultaneously.

Shards of green light floated through the air; the remnants of her Life Energy Draining Prison that had been shattered mercilessly.

"…"

Kayla gritted her teeth in indignation, before unleashing her 'True Spirit Raiment', manifesting a Half Crown adorned with Ornate jewels appeared above her head.

Seizing the opportunity while the Celestials were distracted by Kayla's sudden power surge, Roselia swiftly retrieved a white key and thrust it into the?empty?space before her, giving it a turn.

In a brilliant flash of light, a book materialized in her hands.

The book emitted a pristine white light and radiated an aura of 'holiness', combined with an immense amount of Demonic Energy that sent shivers down the spines of all the Celestials.

This familiar energy diverted their attention from Kayla to Roselia, each reacting with the same surprised exclamation.

"""The?Book of Lumière?!"""

"How is that thing here?!"

"You're still a menace even after Death, Alvey Sargon!!"

The Celestial Deities' soldiers lunged at Roselia in place of their masters. The Celestials knew the real owner of the Grimoire Roselia wielded and they didn't want her to do anything with it.

However, the sheer amount of Demonic Energy stored in it was enough to blow them all away in a single burst of power.

One of the Fallen Celestials wielded a Sword of Frost and swung it at her, but Amy intervened with her black flames, blocking the strike and buying Roselia the time she needed.

Harnessing her energy and combining it with the power of the Book of Lumière, Roselia activated a spell with the Authority bestowed upon her by Alvey. The grimoire's pages fluttered and its text glowed, as Demonic Energy gathered before her.

A single glance at Kayla was enough for both of them to understand each other's intentions.

The two pooled their energies, launching their most powerful combination attack at the Celestial Deity on the brink of Exuviation.

Naturally, he wasn't about to stand idly by.

He tapped into his celestial energy reserves, harnessing the law of Fate's power to retaliate.

The two attacks collided midway, releasing power surges that ripped apart the fabric of spacetime, forming a volatile rift that consumed and neutralized their energies entirely.

This brief moment this took to happen was just enough for the unlikely Spirit-Demon duo to gather power, with Roselia even using a Celestial soul as fuel to launch another attack and the Celestial Deity was a second too late to retaliate.

He redirected his energy into defence, but Roselia exploited her idiosyncrasy and created a hole in the defensive barrier, allowing the enormous arrow of Demonic Light, Space, and Lightning law energies to hit him squarely.

The impact threw him off the centre of the Ritual Spell circle, severing the power that had been flowing into him.

He crashed onto the ground, blood spilling from his torso where the arrow had pierced him, bypassing his Transcendent Durability like it wasn't even there.

Lying wounded and defenceless on the ground, the Celestial Deity was now open to another attack, presenting the perfect opportunity to defeat him.

However, Roselia and Kayla were never aiming for that in the first place.

They just wanted to get him out of the way so they could get to Evan. Unfortunately, their decision proved to do more harm than good.

With its caster temporarily incapacitated, the Spatiotemporal Magic Circle sucked in lingering energy residues from the surroundings and automictically activated.

It drew in Artemisia's Divinity, Kayla's lightning, the 'Light-

Space' energy from the Book of Lumière, the destructive essence radiating from Evan, the remaining frost energy in the vicinity, and even some latent divinity within the Magic Circle itself.

These energies were sucked into the circle in the instant it activated.

As if puncturing a hole through the fabric of space-time, a portal tore open right in behind Evan.

It gleamed with vibrant, swirling colours, resembling an otherworldly kaleidoscope suspended in the cosmos. Its edges crackled with raw energy, offering fleeting glimpses of an expansive starry void beyond.

Radiating waves of vibrant energies, the portal warped the air around it, causing it to shimmer and distort.

The concentrated ambient universal law and cosmic energies from the void of space which were usually filtered by the planet's atmosphere, surged through. This powerful influx forcefully dispersed everyone's energies and hurled them back nearly a hundred meters in an instant with a blast of power.

From within the portal, the cerulean blue chains of time lunged forward and ensnared Evan in an instant, pulling him into it as the portal closed up barely a second later, returning the planet's Space-time fabric to normal.

"?!!"

In that moment, Roselia, Nadarus, Kayla, Kuro, Milena, and Eliza simultaneously felt a piercing pain in their chests, as if something had been forcibly ripped out from them.

That momentary pain was followed by an unsettling sensation of 'hollowness', like there was something 'missing'.

Laurene and David's Hero Resonance Power boost suddenly reduced by 1/3.

Roselia's expression contorted into a frown while Kayla's turned into one of deep distress.

"…n-no…"

That word barely escaped Eliza's lips as her knees gave way beneath her. The girl was overcome by an indescribable feeling of despair—as if the World's end was at hand.

That description wasn't an exaggeration; it felt as if her entire world was crumbling at that very moment.

No one needed to tell them what had happened.

All six of them felt it instinctively—the fact that their contracts with Evan had been abruptly severed.

This unilateral severance of their contracts could only signify one grim reality:

Evan…wasgone.
