Cursed Convergence

Immediately After Chapter 24 We Pick Back Up With Melantha And Selene's Battle As It Reaches Its Climax.

Melantha(Serious): I Suppose It's Time We Finish This.

The Grim Reaper Then Combines Its Essence Into The Scythe Transforming It Into An Entirely New Weapon.

Melantha(Menacingly): This Weapon Has The Essence Of The Death God Sealed Inside Of It, Once It Comes In Contact With Your Soul.

Melantha(Menacingly): Your Very Soul Will Be Guided To The Gates Of Hell Itself.

Melantha(Melantha): Farewell.

Melantha Then Pierces Selene With The Scythe As It Directly Touches Selene's Soul.

Selene(In Pain): AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Selene's Eyes Then Glow A Bright White Color As Does Her Nose And Mouth, Selene's Body Slowly Disintegrates Leaving Nothing Behind Then The Scythe In Melantha's Hands Disappears As Her False Reality Shatters Bringing Her Back To Reality, The Cross And Hourglass Disappears.

Melantha(Playful): That Was Easier Than I Thought.

Melantha(Serious): Mission Complete.

Jay(Telepathically): Mel, Head Back To The City, We Need To Meet Up With The Grand Elder And Inform Him On What Happened.

Melantha(Telepathically): On My Way.

Jay(Telepathically): What Happened To Selene?

Melantha(Playful): She's Dead, Though I Feel As Though Our Battle Went To Easily But… Nevermind.

Melantha Then Makes Her Way Back To The City To Meet Up With Jay And The Grand Elder But She Feels A Small Fragment Of Energy Behind Her Which Causes Her To Come To A Stop And Looks Back.

Melantha(Curious): It's Probably Just My Imagination.

Melantha Then Fly's Back To The City But We Cut Back To The Shadows In The Forest Where We See A Figure Lurking In The Shadows Limping And Covered In Blood With Scars All Over Them.

Selene(Breathing Heavily): Damn It, I- Need To Get Back To The Hideout.

Selene(Breathing Heavily): I Just Barely Made It Out Alive, The One Named Jay Killed Deimos.

Selene Appears To Have Survived The Getting Her Soul Ripped Apart But How?

Meanwhile We Get A Glimpse Of The Hideout, Where 4 Mysterious Figures Clad In Robes With Their Faces Hidden With An Ominous Symbol On The Back Of Their Robes Observes Selene From The Shadows.

Unknown Figure(Whispering): Selene Survived… Intriguing.

Meanwhile Hours Later We Cut To The Sorcerer Council Chamber Where Melantha,Jay And The Grand Elder Are Discussing The Battle Between Melantha And Selene.

Melantha(Serious): Mission Accomplished Sir, Selene Is Dead.

Jay(Serious): Her Partner Who Goes By The Name Of Deimos, The One Who Invaded The City He's Also Dead.

Grand Elder(Relieved): Excellent News Indeed!

Grand Elder(Serious): Now We Just Need To Deal With The Demon Organization, Selene May Be Dead But Their Leader Still Lingers In The Shadows.

Melantha(Serious): Also, The Demon Hunter Azreal Died In His Battle Against Selene When I Arrived.

Melantha(Serious): However After I Finished Off Selene, I Sensed A Familiar Soul Energy That Felt Like Azreal's.

Melantha(Serious): There May Be A Chance That He's Still Alive, But I'm Not Certain.

Grand Elder(Serious): Let's Not Focus On Azreal Right Now, He Is Neither Ally Nor Foe And It Appears We All Have The Same Goal.

Jay(Serious): Also I Couldn't Help But Wonder.

Grand Elder(Curious): What Is It?

Jay(Serious): In Me And Jason's Training, The Cursed Seals On His Arm They Appear To Have Spread To His Torso.

Melantha(Confused): They Did What?

Jay(Serious): They Spread To His Torso, Like Expanded.

Jay(Serious): And When They Spread To His Torso I Noticed A Subtle Difference In His Fighting Style.

Grand Elder(Confused): Elaborate.

Jay(Serious): When We Were Sparing, His Attacks Seemed A Little More Vicious.

Jay(Serious): And I Noticed That He Was Getting A Little Reckless During The Sparing Match.

Grand Elder(Thinking): The Seals, As I Expected.

Grand Elder(Serious): Siba Has Forewarned Me About This, The Cursed Seals On Jason's Body They Are Starting To Evolve.

Jay(Curious): Evolving?

Grand Elder(Ominous): It's Merely The Nature Of The Cursed Seals, They Adapt And Evolve With The Hosts Strength And Emotions, Jason's Power Is Rapidly Growing.

Grand Elder(Dismissive): It's Nothing Major To Worry About Right Now.

Grand Elder(Dismissive): But Keep An Eye On Jason And Let Me Know If You Notice Anymore Changes.

Jay: Yes Sir!

Meanwhile On Another Side Off The Map In A Massive Monastery Hidden In An Ancient City We See Hundreds Of People Clad In Black And Red Robes With Flames On Them With A Demon Symbol On The Back.

We Cut To Inside Of The Monastery To See A Room Full Of Ancient Prophecies Written/Drawn On Stone Walls And Hundreds Of Cloaked Figures On The Ground Hailing A Painting Of Malum On The Wall.

A Hooded Figure Then Enters The Room To Which The Room Is Met With An Eerie Silence And The Lights Dim And Torches Lite On The Walls, The Hooded Figure Then Sits On His Seat Looking Down At The Cult Members.

Cult Leader(Ominous): The Time Comes Near For The Revival Of Lord Malum.

Cult Leader(Ominous): Lord Malum Has Been Sealed Inside Of A New Vessel.

Cult Leader(Ominous): The Sorcerers Have Taken The Power Of The King And Have Stolen It For Their Own.

Cult Leader(Ominous): The Prophecy Has Revealed That King Malum Will Rise Again, And When That Time Comes The Old Era Of Sorcery And Demons Will Make A Comeback.

Cult Leader(Ominous): It's Only A Matter Of Time, Azreal Has Failed His Mission To Bring Us The Vessel And Has Betrayed Us.

Cult Leader(Ominous): Time To Take Matters Into Our Own Hands.
