1514 Dark Vessels & Incarnations, Time Rule



Date- 13 April 2321

Time- 9:50

Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital

Devils and demons don’t just invade other realms for fun or just because they are bored, they do it for rare resources, pure souls, special souls, etc. However, collecting these resources while being suppressed by the world’s will and hunted by local powers would be difficult. 

So, they start a cult in the said realm, where they give the fanatic believers small immediate benefits such as lending their power for valuable offerings such as rare resources and souls. 

But establishing a cult in a foreign realm was easier said than done. Especially with the world’s will suppression and the local powers hunting them to please their world’s will. 

The other realm’s wills were not kind to invaders, especially devils and those related to them. Making it hard for devils and demons to start a successful cult in other realms. As a solution to this problem, the devils came up with a new technique, dark vessel refining. 

The Dark vessel refining technique was where a demon or a devil refines a native of the other realm to be their incarnation in the other world. This way their incarnations can access their full power in other worlds and do their bidding in the other world. Making it easier for the devils and demons to establish their cults in other realms. 

The original plan of the six devils summoned by Aba in the Southern Capital was to erect a blood dome of darkness, then each of them would select a suitable dark vessel to refine them into their incarnations in the card world, and kill the rest before scattering to the far reaches of the card world so no powerful card apprentice could track and kill them to please their world’s will. 

However, they could not erect the blood dome of darkness, yet they decided to proceed with their plan anyway with a slight adjustment that they would help each other refine a dark vessel using the six devil battle formation before declaring war on all 75 demigods and 250 turrets. 

But this plan also failed before they commenced it as the sixth devil, the one with the mohawk and a huge hourglass strapped to its back, chose to go rogue. If only the mohawk devil followed their plan they all would have a vessel in the card world that would allow them to display their full strength without being limited by the world’s will suppression. Then they would not have had to worry about taking on 10 demigods at a time. 

However, the mohawk devil had to show off and went off on its own. Without the mohawk devi, they were one devil short to use the Six Devil battle formation to fend off the demigods while they one by one chose their dark vessels and created their incarnations.

And now they who could have massacred the entire Southern capital were left to defend and buy time so once the mohawk devil was done having fun with its prey then it would come after the demigods for their souls. 

The five devils only saw their trouble and thought that the mohawk devil was so arrogant because of it and never stopped to think that maybe the mohawk devil had troubles of its own.

When finally the decisive battle between devils and the Southern royal family forces began, somewhere in the space of the Southern Capital Henricks looked at the mohawk devil intently. Especially the huge hourglass it was carrying on its back as he blurted to himself in shock, “Time rule.” 

The first time the mohawk devil used its time rule was when it destroyed Arans’s corpse puppet with a single punch. When it happened there was nearly no disturbance in the time of the card world. So, even though Henricks suspected the devil used the time rule, he did not conclude hastily. However, he was certain that the mohawk devil was using the time rule when it dodged thousands of soul energy projectiles in less than a fraction of a second. 

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Hendricks was not shocked that the mohawk devil was using the time rule but over the fact that it was using the time rule in the card world as the time of the dark realm and card realm was different. This meant the time rule and its meaning in the two realms were different. 

Because of this, the mohawk devil would have to deduce and adjust its time rule to the time of the card world before it could use its time rule in the card world. 

Just like how the Field Marshal had to deduce and adjust her space rule to the space of the dark realm to use the space rule inside the blood dome of darkness. 

This was also the reason why the four devils summoned by Ada near the dual gate dungeon after setting up the blood dome of darkness never bothered to disturb the surrounding space to stop the Field Marshal from using the space rule. However, when they realized that the Field Marshal was using the space rule it was already too late. 

Now the questions that were plaguing Henricks were how was the mohawk devil able to use the time rule in the card world so fast and when would the southern royal family’s forces realize that the mohawk devil was using the time rule?

If the Southern Royal family’s forces were slow to catch on to the truth like the four devils killed by Field Marshal Heatsend. Then their end will also be like the four devils. 

In any realm time rule was a hard rule to master even for the beings at the peak of the power realms so it was rare to face opponents who have mastered time rule. 

Considering that facing off a devil was not common for regular demigods, let alone a devil with time rule mastery. Not to mention the time rule being different in different realms, so the demigods from the Southern Royal family never stopped to think that maybe the devil was using the time rule. 

As things were unfolding right now in the Southern Capital, it appeared the Southern family forces would not realize that the devil was using the time rule anytime soon.
