Chapter 46 - Chapter 46: Mansion Of Styx

Deep in the lowest part of the Underworld There lies the source of all evil: the mansion of Styx. Deep in the mansion, Shiki is on her knees, bleeding from every part of her body. A black aura came off her body as all of the wounds healed. A ferocious scream came from directly behind Shiki, but before Shiki could turn around. A three-headed dog bites into her shoulders while screaming in agony; multiple spiders start to crawl away into the open wombs of the shiki. They started tearing her nerves apart. Shiki's body hit the ground as a voice could be heard on a speaker as it spoke, "Did you really think you were permitted to come here, phantom? You will die like the rest of your kind." As blood covered Shiki, her mouth opened and she uttered a single word, "Fengária". Suddenly multiple black projectiles came out of Shiki's hands, destroying the dog as the dead spiders started falling out of her body. The wounds started to heal across the body; her swords floated and said, "Is this going to be your end, Phantom?" Standing on her feet, she grabbed End and said, "No, I will not die here." Multiple monsters that were a mixture of different races came towards her, but even when they slashed and bit into Shiki's flesh, they were swiftly cut down. On the brink of death countless times, Shiki pressed on until she reached a massive staircase that looked endless. While walking up these endless stairs, Shiki was breathing rapidly as End spoke: "What are we here for, Shiki?" A light shone onto Shiki as she said, "This mansion is home to two deities." The god of the underworld is Hades, and the god of death is Thanatos. We are here to take back what they stole from my kind." Shiki clenched her fist so hard blood started coming out as she reached a door. While opening it, a massive tongue wrapped around her, dragging Shiki into a dark room. Shiki couldn't see or feel anything; it was like she was standing in pure darkness. Then the lights turned on, and a creature with a frog-like tongue, a bird face, a fish body and human legs stood before her. Before Shiki could react, the creature wrapped its tongue around her neck, slamming her into the ground multiple times. It started draining Shiki's magical energy from her body. As her energy began to go, her eyes shone as she used a black magic spell called "Skia"; multiple clones made out of black magic appeared behind the creature, and they sliced it into pieces. While getting to her feed, Shiki realised something. She smiled and grabbed End and got into a sword stance. End started to release a massive amount of energy as Shiki used the first End technique called End of All. Shiki vanished as a thousand cuts appeared around her shadow; as she reappeared, she clicked her fingers and sliced the mansion into two pieces. Hades and Thanatos lost sight of her as everything around them turned to black. Shiki stepped out of the shadows with a frustrated look on her face. Sitting at the table, Thanatos said in a worrying tone, "What do you want?" Shiki laughed and grabbed his head before slamming it into the ground then. She lifted his head into her view and said, "Do you know how long I have waited for this? You stole our immortality from my kind, making us feel fear, pain and death. Even with that, you weren't satisfied; you took our power, and then when you couldn't take any more, you took our lives." Hades spoke up and said, "What do you want from us?" Shiki smirked and said, "I want my wings." Thanatos shook his head, saying, "It can't be done." Shiki laughed while speaking, "I know, but I can make more." A massive amount of black magic consumed the remaining parts of the mansion. A soul came out and spoke, "My lord, I will be your wing." This soul was of the God Styx, as it turned into a golden wing attached to Shiki's back. Thanatos and Hades looked at her. Dumbfounded, Hades lowered his head, knowing they will be next. Shiki opened her hand and used a black magic spell called "timoría"; it decayed Thanatos's body down to the very soul. His soul flooded to Shiki's side, saying, "I will serve you, my lord." She formed another wing which attached to the other side of Shiki's back. She walked in front of Hades while he was cowering away; he said, "Just kill me already." Shiki grabbed his neck and said, "You are not worth killing since you tried to take the throne from Nezha; you have become nothing but a pathetic weakling, but I want a soul." Hades,with a worrying tone, asked, "What soul do you need?" Shiki spoke and said, "I would like the soul of Melty Bloodfallen." Hades had a terrified look on his face as he handed on her soul. Once Shiki gained the soul, she swiftly left as the mansion burnt down to the ground.
