Chapter 11 - Illusional Paradise

THE WAR FOR THE CELESTIAL THRONE CHAPTER 11

On Earth

In the sky the big white seal glows brightly as it starts cracking and falling apart as the sky rumbles. Gemi on Earth looking at the seal as it falls apart "Looks like our less than happy encounters earlier today weren't coincidences." And moon white mana shoots out of crack and hits the clouds where Uriel descended from and a golden seal with a crescent on it is formed.

Timrel stops on the golden seal and starts hitting it panicking "Come on break yooouu, damn it. Wait Master Roxxie taught me this." She pauses and starts recalling her magic lessons and she pauses frustrated and with regret "Why didn't I pay attention fuck., as she scratches her head as she stands on the seal, Come on just one at least one seal deciphering technique." , and she remembers something and immediately looks back at the seal and raises her fist to it as a dark cyan colored gauntlet forms on her hand and she moves back in-between seconds and starts punching the seal.

On Earth the dinosaurs panicking as Uriel, Capricorn, Gemi look up at the white seal falling apart and the mana of all the other zodiacs starts pouring out of the seal turning the sky into multiple colors as the rumbling gets greater and greater.

Gemi hears Dracula's deafening roar and looks at its body glowing violently like the sun and stares at the seal with an intense fierce look in its eyes Gemi "Now that's a guy you can depend on." Uriel summons her sword "Yeah she is really dependable the protector of this realm" Gemi and Capricorn pause and look at each other in shock and turn to look at Dracula a few meters aside them and back at Uriel who notices their glazes on her and sees their shocked faces.

Uriel "You did know Dracula is female, right?" Dracula first pauses and turns to them with a calm face and tilts her head as she looks at Gemi and Capricorn. Who start avoiding eye contact "Pfft, obviously why wouldn't we come on Dracula is beautiful. In fact, how, as they turn intensely to Uriel spooking her, dare you think we didn't know." in perfect sync with each other and Dracula wags her tail up and about and runs into the woods leaving a white afterimage and line of white light.

Gemi "So we are four against twelve feels fair unless you ladies feeling uneasy." Capricorn "Uneasy for what from what I can remember in servitude we were MVPs on our separate sides the chumps got nothing on us." Uriel "I don't feel good going up against what's beyond that seal but just buying time for the rest to join us. Hey don't get carried away Capricorn I don't want to die because of what you did when you were twelve."

Capricorn "As you said I was twelve I am now…" Gemi interrupts "twenty-five million and twenty-one years old." Capricorn embarrassed "How did you figure that out." Gemi "you forget who throws you a birthday party every year." Capricorn "That's not fair you know my age tell me yours when I ask you, you divert it." Gemi "okay cube your age that's me." Uriel pauses "What the?! You don't act your age." Gemi "I get that a lot." Capricorn "I know you are old but I need a number." Gemi "Too bad that's what you get win and I'll give you and exact…" as he is talking a barrage of light arrows fire at them and Gemi uses his staff which spins and hits Capricorn turning her into light and absorbing and doing the same to Uriel as it flies through the barrage of arrows dodging and breaking the spears as it gets of the arrows rage eight kilometers away from Gemi who is standing at the center dodging the billions of arrows dodging every single one.

The staff still flying close to ground Capricorn forces her way out and rolls with staffs speed ahead of it and her armor comes on and she kicks Leo's blade as she was about to hit the staff and shockwave clears the trees for 13 km and Uriel is also let out about to go assist Capricorn and a man with a psychotic smile and blind fold strikes her with shotels *sickle like blade, the man white haired wearing a long blood red scarf with a sleeves body tight with light black armor on his shoulders with a baggy ninja pant and armor on his knees*

Uriel "And of course I get the dangerous, insane and sadistic piece of shit, Cancer." Cancer in his sadistic happy voice "And I get chicken tell me can I expect there to be milk or will I have to look for my own." As he presses his blade on her blade blocking his Uriel "You never cease to disgust me with your words." And she pushes him back Cancer "Oh, your entertaining way more than those birds back then barely put a fight don't disappoint now I know you are going to be really tasty." As he licks lips and he suddenly appears in front of her both his shotels about pinch through her with them and she jumps back but getting her dress cut.

Cancer "SHAAAARRRRP!!!And sexy way better than flat Capricorn only assets are done but what else can you expect from prey meant to runaway he should have went with you." Uriel "I have heard of your ability you see possibilities." Cancer "Exactly that's right but guess what Primordial are different we are the only ones that exist our power not splintered we… I erase splitters of this universe no one escapes me though there was one I saw where you had a child adorable, she cried as I ate you in front of you that's the problem with branching it weakens prey so come entertain me." Uriel angry the ground melting around her and her flames becoming white looks at him with fury and launches at him as he twirls about and he blocks her sword as sparks fly and mana, she sees space shattering around his face and sees past his blindfold for a second his psychotic eyes with inside seeming endless and going on for ever with dots of lights inside

He then pushes her back with one hand and as her foot lands down he runs at her with his face up close grins at her catching her off guard and steps back and slices straight down on her body but she dodges it with it only cutting some of her hair and she immediately lets out her wings and tries slashing him and he dodges it with his grin still up and starts retreating and she follows as the slice he missed continues cutting through the ground growing in length as it goes and Capricorn is hit upside down into its path and she uses her hands to hold the ground and kicks it with her legs destroying the wave of energy and jumps up avoiding Leo who suddenly appears in front of and she kicks midair sending her into the nearest forest away from Uriel and pause taking deep breaths calming herself.

Meanwhile Gemi standing above the completely destroyed ground that became a 30-meter-deep crater summons his staff as he hears clapping coming closer to him and looks over his shoulder at Minai walking over the crater to him *Minai is 7ft tall like Gemi but white haired with crimson red iris dressed in a cloak with a wide sleeved black coat and twin blades behind his back attached to the back of his waist in a white sheath* Minai "Well this fun thanks bro for the passkey. To think that girl of yours, Capricorn right gets stronger the more she reserves her emotions like she literally as to kill her emotions on the battlefield to be of any use."

Gemi "Well she fights better than your ass." Minai playfully "Right where it hurts…" and is suddenly shredded by three spinning light spears and Gemi calls out "Come on did you honestly think a clone could do trick me where are you."

Minai's voice surrounding him as 30 pairs of glowing crimson eyes open in the shade of the surrounding wreckages surrounding him, Minai's voice from each of them "Of course not just buying time." Gemi crack his neck "Yeah figured can't allow that so hurry up great mage and come meet the great sage. You aren't picking up where you left off before the banishment."

Minai's clones laughing "Well come get me. Only you are smart enough to think of what I'm here for so come catch me." As the clones run at him at light speed and Gemi charges at one and cuts through it with his with the bult force of his staff and continues destroying them like this as their bodies get harder but not stopping him as smashes 16 of them within seconds and stops as eyes start radiating yellowish white and fires out concentrated laser burning through 12 clones like butter before hitting one that blocks the lasers with his hands only scorching his hands and he stops.

The clone waving his hand smiling in pain "Only 7200 degrees I thought you were supposed to go up to 50000 degrees." Gemi starts flying as he looks down on them "And why would I pass the chance to pummel you and me have a few issues to settle his body glows blinding white and the sun itself changes from yellow to blue and area starts to feel colder and the light fades out as he appears in his celestial clothing an open blue long hoody and gold linings with black gold lined gloves with a muscle tight shirt underneath and flies at the clone ripping off its arm and stands in front of the other one, Gemi "A third of your power can handle me don't make me laugh if my student could handle you on the battlefield what makes you think you could handle so called great mage it's time to face judgement by the sun." as a huge stone bull is thrown over them for miles and they turn and see giant Dracula roaring into the sky her body also now glowing bright blue.

The video is then paused and John reappears in front of them and Elly angry wanting to continue watching "What boo why did you stop it was just getting good." Liv "Yeah!" John sighs "You two this isn't movie time this is just a piece of the war's history that continues for millennia up to the point then sand weaver was destroyed during a battle for it when its original owner made the sacrifice the information in here is far too valuable with information from dead kingdoms and religions in great detail, so that includes their spells."

Elly "Okay, very important sand book but I'd like to continue the history story." Liv nods in agreement with her as the simulation turns into sand and starts retreating into the floor boards leaving no trace. John puts his glasses back on "Your mom is here to pick us. Do you really want to make her wait?" Elly rises to her feet immediately "No!" Sakai confused "What's going on?" Liv "Well mama is… a little." Elly "Liv come on she is probably turning on the car radio." Liv jumps of the chair and turns to Sakai, Liv "Come on we have to hurry." Sakai gets off the chair and grabs his bag next to it and moves past her with his hand pocketed Liv keeps looking at him "Since when does he pocket in front of Dad. Is he hiding something." As John picks up Liv's school bag and Elly's pink work bag and opens his office as they move out and Liv and Elly start speed walking as John keeps up with them and Sakai following behind them.

Sakai "School is really over." John "Time flies when you are watching a good story." And they shortly reach the schools front doors and walk past them and look into the parking lot where Mary *wearing a white blouse underneath a long brown coat and blue jeans and black wedges* is blasting hip pop music and dancing uncoordinatedly a mix of Scottish, break dancing and random hand movements and some children walk by them laughing "yeah my mom could never do that."

Liv and Elly turn back to the school "Quick before she sees us." About to take a step back to school and Mary calls out to them and they pause in their tracks and Liv looks up at Sakai with who has a grin. Liv whispering "Why are you smiling?" Sakai "You should see her messing around with anime fanatics of the school." And Liv turns around and calls out "MOM!" with her loudest voice and Mary poses in Goku's signature pose for a Kame Hame ha and the kids also pause like Vegeta with a final blast all aiming at her and she stands up straight as well as the kids and she waves them bye and walks over to them her hands wide open, Mary excited "MY BABIES!, hugs John as Liv turns away she picks her up and cuddles her, That was loud my shy baby getting a big girl public voice." Liv's face completely red from the moment whispers, "Please, put me down…mama." Mary "Guess that was too much for this cutie pie." Puts her down slowly and she runs behind Sakai Liv "WWHHHYY!?" As Sakai looks over his shoulder at her trying to hide his smile.

Mary about to pick up Elly with her eyes closed who backs up nervously and she opens her and looks at her, Mary with a devious tone and look on her face "You think I won't chase you till your little feet get tired just come over here." And Elly just walks over to her and she holds her, Elly shily whispers "Please, don't spin me I'm not wearing shorts under the dress."

Elly looks up at her and sees a smile on her face, Mary "This is a valuable opportunity to teach the importance of having more under your dress." And starts to spin as she lifts her off the ground and Elly lets out a sharp cute scream almost cat like and Mary immediately stops the spin and just carries her holding her skirt, Elly breathing heavily after the scream and sees some people looking at her and starts blushing out embarrassment.

Mary whispers into her ear "Got ya.,and Elly immediately hides her red face in her big chest, Relax they didn't see a thing…,before letting out a muffled scream and Elly looks up at her, Well played going after my boob but you forgot how petty I am." And Mary puts Elly down and she moves with her head down to John and puts both her hands up signaling him to carry her and he looks at her and sighs before picking her up and she hides her face again in John's chest, Elly "Thank you, Daddy." John "Next time do that after making it to the car."

Sakai looking at the scene with a smile thinks "Looks like she's the strongest in the house she eliminated everyone without even trying." Mary points at Sakai suddenly catching him off guard and he looks up at her, Mary squats down to his level looks at him, Sakai uncomfortable "Can I help you, Liv's mom." With a strained smile and Mary just giggles "Nope, wait you look familiar which is why I was staring." Sakai "I mean you did see me through the computer the other day so yeah."

Mary shakes her head "Not that time, actually before that side question do you have a six pack?" Sakai completely unbothered by it "Yeah, I do though it's probably not as hard as John's." Mary laughs "You are a weird kid approved but may I ask the eye." John "Eye injury not too serious." Mary in doubting "Huh?" Sakai reassuring her "It's minor don't even feel any pain now just going back home to take it." Mary's thoughts (This kid is missing an eye and as massive holes in his hands the smell of blood is faint) looks at John who seems oblivious to it (And he doesn't seem to notice whoever did this covered the scent well. And the mana on his wounds looks familiar.)

All of a sudden Lezana touches Mary's back, "Boo." Terrifying Mary and she stands up immediately and turns keeping low guarding and backing up a bit and looks at her frozen in her tracks, John turns to look "Jenny how have you been." From looking at Mary with a playful look turns to John "Fine thanks for asking just spooking my friend's…" John "Wife." Jenny steps closer to Mary and holds out her hand for a handshake, "Nice to meet you wife of John. Sorry for the scare it's an intrusive thought of mine, we cool."

Mary looking at her stands straight (My guard was up the whole time and she this is bad. Come on hold it together she'll get suspicious) and takes her hand and takes a huge breath "Wow you got me. You are really good at sneaking up on people." Jenny jokingly "You haven't seen anything just imagine if it was dark." Mary "Now I think I may buy a night lights for my house." Jenny let's go of her hand and holds her bag casually "You were talking to Sakai right that's my boy I have never seen you around here he may not be so talkative as the other parents say he hit his eye pretty bad but it will be fine tomorrow thank goodness, he's a kid crazy recovery."

Mary "True that say your boy is friends with practically my whole family so why doesn't he stay over for the weekend." Jenny pauses and thinks before looking back at her and holding up her hand "Wow that's super great timing company coming up with a new product so work is getting hectic so I'll have to work over the weekend." John "So that's why he came on the bus." Jenny "Yeah called me early and worked me senseless." As she leans back stretching her back. Jenny "I can drop him off just give me your location."

Mary "No no no, we couldn't disturb you like that so what about John comes by your house and picks him up tomorrow 7 o'clock." Jenny looks at John "You still remember where I stay." John "I do from the teacher parent visit program that right." Jenny "Yeah, suddenly gets energy on spotting Elly in John's arms, Oh my stars who's this bundle of joy." Elly looks at her "Elly…" Jenny "Elly I have to say you are one cute kid." Spots Liv who cowers on making eye contact and she just waves at Liv who waves back timidly.

Jenny holds out her hand towards Sakai "Come on let's go Sakai." As she waves them bye and Mary waves back as she leaves the school with Sakai, Mary (Looks like I now know who gave him the injuries.) "Let's go home."

A few minutes later Sakai seated in the back seat of the car in silence as Lezana drives *the only difference between Jenny and Lezana is that Jenny's hair is black and Lezana's brown* Sakai tense "She hasn't said a thing this can't be good" pause on realizing the car is about to enter the next lane with cars moving in the opposite direction and Sakai shouts out "MOM!"

Lezana turns her head to him like she just woke up and moves back in lane. Lezana whining with a sleepy voice, "What's wrong?" Sakai angry by her expression "You can't fall asleep on the wheel are you trying to cause an accident." Lezana yawns indiscriminately and keeps her eyes closed and in between yawns, "Oh, please these slow pokes couldn't…even if they tried., opens one eye these people are taking too long to move." And starts speeding and overtaking cars in her lane as Sakai is panicking in the back seat as he constantly watches her barely avoid near head on collisions.

After 20 minutes the car slows down into their drive through and Lezana stops the car and presses a button on the dash board's center and the car doors open upwards and Lezana steps out with her bag in a tired fashion dragging her feet, Lezana "Come on the car has got it from here." Sakai holding his seat for dear life let's go showing the hand grooves in the car seat and gets off the seat with his bag and gets out of the car and the doors close immediately after as he walks to the open front door and finds Lezana's shoes scattered on the ground.

Sakai looks at them and sighs as he takes his shoes off and arranges both of theirs and puts them on the shoe rack, closes the door and walks through the short hall and stops looking at Lezana seated on one their stools in the kitchen counter her head down, Sakai remains standing there looking at her feeling uneasy. Lezana in a tired voice, "What can I help you? I'm tired so maybe not right now." Sakai lecturing her "Maybe you wouldn't be tired if you slept instead of torturing me." Lezana rises of the counter, turns facing him completely and leans back on the counter her voice cold, "For your information I haven't slept in hundreds of years, or needed to it for that matter I always I had a source, her sounding confused, but then what happened, and she tilts her head to look at Sakai with her glowing brown eyes, right you happened."

Sakai immediately steps back sensing her anger and which all of a sudden just disappears making pause as keeps eye contact. Lezana sits up straight holding her hands and slouches forward "I'm tired because of you for the first time in centuries I'm tired and it's because of you." Lezana then shoots at him a small at the left of his waist and goes right through him with and the force of the stone tears a circular hole of an eight-centimeter radius in his waist going all the way through him as the stone stops right behind him and the sudden force when it stops pushes him forward onto the ground.

Lezana angry "WHO do YOU think you are to lecture me about a problem you caused me, with that contract." Sakai panicking on the ground "Why is it so hot there, as he moves his hand to hold his waist but continues touching his flesh and torn pieces of his large intestines looks up at Lezana with pain written expression, I'm bleeding out you can't…let me die because you'll die too." Lezana stands up and stone starts rises to her hand as it crumbles in specific areas forming a long war hammer handle and she grabs it and pulls rest of it out of ground and raises the head of the hammer pointing at Sakai from the counter.

Lezana "And what if I don't care anymore." Let's the hammer head fall as she walks towards Sakai dragging the hammer, Sakai closes his eyes and looks at the floor awaiting his fate as he hears the sound of her lifting the hammer off the ground. Lezana "I'll make it quick for both of us." As the light flower glows brightly in her eye as she lifts the hammer above her head and Sakai grits teeth waiting impact and hears a loud thud to the ground and stone crumbling and opens his eyes slowly to see Lezana on the ground unconscious and starts to stand as his waist heals becoming good as new.

He stands up moves closer to her slowly and stops looking at her and then unwarps his hands and the holes she put are gone (Gemi did you do this.) Gemi "Yeah, you can heal yourself completely restoring entire body parts, even your eye is back." Sakai (And what if she gets curious) he gets closer to her squats next to her and looks at her "You look vulnerable like this. Guess I should put you in bed." (How though she's taller than me.) he tries princess carrying her and lifts her up and stops adjusting his hands while holding her and manages to get a firm hold on her as her head rests aside his.

Sakai (She's way lighter than she looks. I didn't think this would work.) Gemi "Count those benefits of being my incarnation toned bod, super strength, speed and much more." Sakai (So the abs and pecks…) Gemi "Yeah that was me. Why don't you just kill her like this." Sakai (She's not asleep. I know.) Gemi "What but she looks asleep! And don't worry I can trick to thick she healed you." as they enter her room and Sakai gently puts her on her bed covers her and she immediately turns away from him like a person sleeping.

Sakai puts his hand on her back "You can tell me anything we're family after all." In a soft tone and exits her room partially closing her door and Lezana's eyes open immediately and rises up. Lezana rubbing her head sits on her bed (Why is he insisting on being nice?) hears ringing from a drawer and pulls out the compartment and pulls out a military grade phone and looks at the number saved as snake and answers it.

Lezana, "Why are you calling me?" A man on the other end with a deep calm voice "Fine how are you." Lezana coldly "I don't have the energy for your banter, Xavier." Xavier's voice with a psychotic happiness in it "Come on I'm just checking on my business partner. I have your package safe and sound right here with me." Lezana "Mess with my package and I kill you." Xavier "Okay, calm down why would I annoy my partner."

Lezana sighs "Anything else?" Xavier "Oh, actually yes, I still don't understand one thing so please explain how, a six-year-old was able to forge a contract with you that has no loop holes… explain." With an expressive voice switching in between anger and confusion coming back to an overall neutral voice. Lezana gets off the bed and walks to her closet "I already told you the story." As she opens it and takes off her long sleeved white shirt letting it fall to the ground and unhooking her bra and putting it away then grabbing the top of her pajamas as she waits for Xavier's response and starts taking off her skirt, Xavier "Right, but explain to me your analysis over the asset, his voice sounding displeased, how does a boy with no knowledge of how contracts work, create a contract that delays our plans AND BINDS THE SUPERIOR PARTY." Lezana's skirt falls and she pulls down her panties and lets them fall and picks her pajama pants, Lezana "What can I say the boy is smarter than he looks there has been no sign that he's even what we are looking for." Xavier yells in anger "WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S SMARTER THAN HE LOOKS!" Lezana coldly "I know we contract that gives us equal say, back from the world war battle field. Xavier don't annoy me, because I've found our alliance beneficial watch your tone. I'll kill him on his next birthday."

Xavier calm "Just do your part like you always have perfectly throughout our 200 years of togetherness." Before hanging up the phone and Lezana lowers her hand with the phone from her ear and stretches and looks down at her underwear and a look of disgust feels her eyes. Lezana "AH, gross guess Sakai is right I do need sleep. ,as she yawns, How can I seriously get wet talking to the snake of all things?" and walks back to the other-side of her bed and puts the phone back and lies in bed and covers herself with a blanket."

Sakai in his room looking at her thermally with bright eyes sees her temperature moving steadily to that of a sleeping person and the mana in the house becomes lighter and Sakai gets out of bed (Gemi she's asleep now. You said you can trick her right) Gemi boastfully but hiding it "Right, something I came up with in my name. Called mana cloaking it allows me blend mana with my environment very good for stealth since mana readers can't even see you." Sakai (That skill is way too valuable in my current situation. What else can I do?)

Gemi "We can create any weapon with light magic. Just pause and visualize your murder weapon." Sakai (That won't work, she'll react just in the time the weapon makes contact and I jack when it comes to explosives so those would be failed attempts to escape and I have 3.) Gemi "Fair enough it's not like you could kill her without exposing yourself so in the off chance she survives we'll be figured out and then screwed royally."

Sakai (Can we do sweep of the area like she's doing without being detected.) Gemi "Of course we can I can blend the mana to hers and make it seem you're in bed." Sakai impressed (Really that is useful in so many events involving her are there any draw backs.) Gemi "Sadly yes she can see us with her eyes your can manipulate the light around yourself to hide but if she sees through it…" pauses momentarily Sakai (Exposed huh…, Using my memories can you make something we can use to escape. Like a drill.) Gemi "Yes ,as Sakai's eyes glow and a drill made of light forms in front of me, a drill easy work but may I ask why not escape by running away you can move at the speed of light." Sakai (The fact you proposed killing her first instead of running meant you saw a higher chance of survival in killing her which means moving at light speed isn't easy.) Gemi "Yes, she's nothing like I remember. She's fiercer and more ruthless. So why the drill."

Sakai (An escape root I thought of something this house's walls, ceilings and floors are thick to extensive degree big enough for a person even 6 or 7 years older than me to me move through them, just an estimate. Why are they these big on the account of seeing how she treats me she most like prefers noticing around her victims without risk of damaging the house structure. Let's get to work on this escape route no telling how many opportunities we'll have.)as he walks towards, he's closet and removes its floor covering as a hammer with a claw also forms out of light and plucks out the nails of the floor boards under his closet exposing the earth underneath.

Gemi "Hey kid I thought she had cement used for the house." Sakai (Expected this is her house why would she use cement maybe it's not as easy to control. Put an infinitely elastic cap at the end to drag out the soil. Are you sure this won't wake her up?" Gemi "Certain I was the stealthiest in the war back then and even now and I teach you but instead of a bag I can break it down into her own mana that way she won't even know there's tunnel since it will fill like everything is still there just don't open this tunnel after I finish hiding because mana will radiate out and she will notice." Sakai (One time use got it.)

The drill spins and borrows into the exposed dirt oddly not make too much noise as it drills through as Sakai sees it avoiding pipes and wiring all through the house to the sidewalk before stopping and vanishing. Gemi "Put the floor boards back now." Sakai immediately places back the floorboards that were there and hammers them down with the hammer perfectly and places the cover back as using infrared vision looks into her room seeing her body with one leg raised the other far away from the other and her arms apart her body temperature the same as a sleeping person.

Sakai (Thank goodness that not even a rocket launch can wake her up completely different story when you try hitting her.) Gemi "Done." As Sakai's eyes stop glowing and he yawns as he stretches and gets back in his bed and covers himself. Sakai in a sleepy tone (Good night, Gemi.) Gemi (Good night kid.)
