Chapter 1877 Domination
Because the Sin Collection Domains overlapped and expanded outward, demon beasts of all varieties charged towards Eren, who stood on the epicenter.
Not too far behind him lay the unconscious Eldric Pressure members, fully defenseless.
“Cost!” Keram took the lead of his demon beast horde as he stepped ahead. Within the subsequent second, he fearlessly charged contained in the multi-domain barrier Eren had erected.
Keram was assured in his talents to regulate a demon beast horde. In any case, he advanced from a dire-wolf-type demon beast blessed with distinctive crowd-controlling talents. He was the Alpha of the pack, and his authority because the chief could not be questioned by his subordinates, even when he commanded them to leap into a fireplace pit and commit suicide.
Keram certainly confronted some hassle riling up his horde in opposition to somebody like Eren, who was on the higher echelon of the demonic hierarchy if not on the very high. Nevertheless, he did not discover it too troubling to exert his will upon his familiars. He additionally used his powers to drive them into berserk mode, fully abandoning motive.
The demon beasts affected by the forceful berserk mode had their eyes flip pink with rage. The demonic energies inside their our bodies surged, boosting their total bodily stats and magic-wielding talents.
Keram did not care concerning the destiny of the demon beasts’ our bodies after the battle. His sole focus was to dominate Eren inside his personal area. With an enormous numerical benefit, he thought, ‘I can do that,’ as he stepped into the multi-layered area for the primary time.
He, in truth, couldn’t do it.
Within the subsequent second, the humanoid dire wolf nearly howled to sound his retreat.
The very first thing Keram felt after getting into Eren’s area was a mind-crushing type of psychological suppression. It was as if the Faustian Contract, based mostly on which he had possessed the physique of the dire wolf, was attempting to tear itself aside, nearly forcing him to cancel the contract out of his personal volition.
This wasn’t all. Keram felt like his legs had turned to steer, as if he have been touring by way of the deep sea, with every step taking a toll on him. His notion of time and area was skewed and his imaginative and prescient was affected by the dense quantity of Sin Collection Mana that prevailed within the multi-layered area.
The Sin Collection Mana was nearly tangible. But neither the demon beast nor their leaders may use the mana to do their bidding in opposition to Eren.
Sifrona, the demoness phoenix wasn’t far behind Keram. She approached Eren from one other facet as she stepped into his area and nearly regretted inflicting this scene.
Sifrona met eyes with Keram and noticed him muster his braveness to hold ahead. She too determined to comply with Keram’s lead as she took management of her familiars and charged forward.
All of this occurred inside a cut up second. A lot in order that each Keram and Sifrona did not have time to foretell the efficiency with which Eren may wield his demonic powers.
The next occasions unfolded in fast succession in entrance of the 2 demon beasts leaders who actively took half within the battle in opposition to Eren in addition to the remaining 4 demon beast leaders who had determined to not contain themselves and their respective familiars within the battle.
It was as if the battle was meticulously choreographed for a climactic second in a dwell efficiency. Every scene appeared to linger in sluggish movement for these paying shut consideration.
[ 1st scene: Flames of Wrath ]
Eren invoked his Wrath Flames on the primary group of demon beasts who recklessly tried to method him. The benefit at which he may use these wrathful flames was worthy of reward. In any case, the flames of wrath have been the primary Sin Collection energy Eren had unlocked for himself from his struggling instances in Anfang.
This time, the wrath flames weren’t just a few senseless assaults Eren had unleashed on his enemies. One may say that they’d been upgraded ever for the reason that Sin of Wrath acquired strengthening from Advantage of Persistence.
This time, the wrath flames appeared to own a thoughts of their very own, hungrily looking for out their targets among the many hordes of demon beasts that surrounded Eren. If Eren have been to make these wrath flames much more sentient, they have been sure to show into hearth elemental fiends– the demonic firespawns that have been summoned instantly from the demonic planes that cultivated them throughout the depths of the infernal seas.
“Screeeeee!”
“Kiyaaaaa!”
Because the flames made contact with the flesh of the demon beasts, they seared by way of their demonic varieties, abandoning trails of smoldering embers and agonized screams. The flesh was burned and even bones caught hearth, incinerating the low-ranked beasts into nothingness as quickly as they stepped in.
The wrath flames did not simply burn the bodily our bodies of the demon beasts; they delved deeper. The wrathful flames burned the demons’ very souls with an infernal warmth. This warmth wasn’t simply excessive in bodily temperature. It appeared to devour their essence from inside.
The demon beasts, caught within the grip of Eren’s Flames of Wrath, writhed and convulsed in anguish because the spectral flames consumed them.
Some tried to flee, solely to search out themselves engulfed by the relentless flames regardless of the place they turned.
Some tried to protect themselves from the flames with futile Expertise and demonic powers. This was the battle they knew they have been going to lose. And but, their survival instincts made them wrestle until their deaths.
There have been different, extra sentinel demon beasts, who noticed the futility of their wrestle. They succumbed to the flames’ relentless onslaught, collapsing to the bottom in smoldering heaps.
[ 2nd scene: Mouths of Gluttony ]
This was maybe the second most trusted battle-oriented Sin Collection Potential Eren had in his arsenal. Whereas a portion of the demon beasts have been getting roasted within the wrath flames, the opposite teams of demon beasts have been compelled to take care of the demonic mouths that had been summoned throughout a number of areas within the multi-layered area.
With a mere gesture, Eren unleashed the Mouths of Gluttony, spectral and grotesque, desperate to feast upon the essence of their foes.
Because the hordes of demon beasts charged in direction of him, they discovered themselves instinctively scared by the insatiable starvation of the Gluttony mouths.
After being strengthened by the Advantage of Temperance, the Sin of Gluttony had leveled up. Eren may summon staggeringly extra demonic mouths round him than his earlier numerical limitations.
Plus, the demonic mouths may very well be left to their very own units. Eren did not need to make efforts to maintain them. So long as they have been offered “meals”, they might keep functioning with out Eren’s interference. It was as if the Advantage of Temperance had allowed them to final lengthy and turn out to be much more demonic in nature and motion.
Swoosh. Zoom. Chunk.
Human and inhuman-looking jaws opened vast, snapping hungrily on the infernal creatures.
Some mouths resembled these of ravenous wolves, whereas others appeared like twisted amalgamations of assorted creatures, every another horrifying than the final.
Nom. Nom. Nom.
The demon beasts’ roars of defiance turned to determined cries for mercy as they realized the futility of their resistance.
‘Hmm. I am utilizing these chains in a non-creative method. Maybe, they are often utilized higher. However I suppose I suppose that is sufficient for now. I could not make a lot of the wrath flames prior to now as I can now.
So this is able to be one other studying curve I might need to undergo earlier than I can really make good use of those chains. In the meantime, I can study from my experiences. I want to check the results of those chains earlier than fascinated with anything.”
Eren thought to himself and nodded internally.
‘This was simpler than I believed. Time to earn some extra Faustian Contracts.’
Eren watched with a steely gaze because the Chains of Avarice did their work, binding the demon beasts in place and leaving them susceptible to additional assaults.
[ 5th scene: Shroud of Lethargy ]
The shrouds of lethargy have been subsequent in line to get summoned.
A darkish mist started to unfold within the multi-layered area, seeping into the air and shrouding the environment in a thick haze.
Because the Shroud of Lethargy enveloped the demon beasts, a palpable sense of lethargy washed over them, weighing down their actions and clouding their minds with a heavy fog of exhaustion. It was as in the event that they have been kicked out of the berserker mode due to the area’s results.
The beasts’ as soon as ferocious roars have been lowered to weary groans as they struggled to elevate their limbs and muster the power to battle.
The demon beasts stumbled and staggered by way of the mist, their actions sluggish and uncoordinated. Their eyes, as soon as crammed with fiery willpower, now drooped with weariness because the Shroud of Lethargy sapped their vitality and drained their power.
With every passing second, the results of the Shroud of Lethargy grew extra pronounced, rendering the demon beasts more and more sluggish and torpid.
Their assaults grew to become feeble and ineffectual, their actions sluggish and labored as they struggled to withstand the oppressive weight of the mist.
“Kekeke. Could not have requested for something higher at this level.”
Like a skilled maestro dictating the continued symphony of the band, Eren raised his fingers and waved them. The air crackled with demonic power as Eren’s powers surged forth, engulfing the demon beasts in a maelstrom of destruction.
The Sin Collection talents enhanced the effectiveness of others. The consequences have been stacked and the destruction was seemingly immeasurable.
Flames of Wrath licked at their flesh, devouring them with spectral hearth, whereas Mouths of Gluttony tore into their our bodies, consuming them from inside. The Chains of Avarice made it harder for the demon beasts to launch counterattacks than it already was.
[ 6th scene: Seeds of Jealousy ]
The Seeds of Jealousy have been quail-egg-sized spherical issues that have been fabricated from pure and potent Envy mana. They have been considerably much like Pearls of Gluttony in measurement. Nevertheless, the results they produced have been fully completely different.
Probably the most dreadful issues about these seeds was the very fact they could not be blocked. These spectral and meta-
bodily seeds went by way of any and all types of defenses and entered the enemy’s our bodies, sprouting inside their souls.
With a whispered incantation, Eren sowed the seeds of discord and envy, planting the insidious tendrils of jealousy deep throughout the hearts of his foes.
Because the Seeds of Jealousy took root, a darkish aura started to envelop the demon beasts, clouding their minds with emotions of mindless envy.
Whereas the lower-ranked demon beasts have been getting affected by the remainder of the SinS sequence powers Eren had unleashed on them, among the unfortunate high-ranking demon beasts had these seeds planted of their our bodies.
The place as soon as there had been unity and cohesion among the many ranks, now there was solely mistrust and discord as jealousy tore by way of the beasts’ ranks like a festering wound.
The demon beasts turned upon one another with snarls and growls, their as soon as fearsome alliance crumbling beneath the load of their newfound envy.
Former comrades grew to become bitter rivals, locked in a lethal wrestle for dominance and energy because the Seeds of Jealousy twisted their ideas and feelings.
[ 7th scene: Shield of Hubris ]
Protect of Hubris was a defensive-type Sin Collection Potential.
‘Hmm. Since I’m not getting attacked, I would as properly apply it to these poor sleepyheads to check its effectiveness in real-time.’
With a wave of the butcher’s hand, a shimmering barrier of golden mild surrounded the fallen Eldric Pressure warriors, keeping off the relentless onslaught of the demon beasts.
The Protect of Hubris’ radiant power repelled claws and tooth with ease. With every strike, the protect pulsed with energy, absorbing the power of the blows and dispersing it harmlessly into the air.
***
The Sin Collection talents, bolstered by the Advantage Collection Marks, had reached an absurd degree of energy. When used collectively, they shaped a symbiotic relationship, strengthening one another to boost Eren’s offensive and defensive capabilities.
The facility he wielded contained in the multi-layered area was nothing wanting a divine miracle, particularly contemplating he nonetheless inhabited a mortal vessel. One may solely think about the extent of Eren’s energy if he have been to turn out to be an Immortal.
The 2 big hordes of demon familiars nearly vanished from sight as quickly as they entered Eren’s multi-layered area. An enormous quantity of Gluttony Pearls, Seeds of Jealousy, Wrathful Flames, and Faustian Contracts have been extracted from them. All of them may very well be used to nourish Eren’s Path.
All seven scenes unfolded concurrently or sequentially inside mere minute or so.
Regardless of the brevity of this interval, it was ample for the emergence of a definitive victor.
