The Fallen Spawn was enraged as he received the reports from the Coins that rushed towards Grecher.
A Coin was a power that the Fallen Spawn crafted from himself. And these creatures would resurrect themselves as long as the soul of Grecher returns. But there was a strange power that stopped Grecher's soul from returning and the backlash of the severing power made the Fallen Spawn suffer great pains.
But now, no trace of where the angel was could be seen.
It brought fear to the Fallen Spawn and ordered his Coins to act in pairs as they would fight in the land.
The Coins were ordered to move in pairs and were ordered to eliminate the surviving warriors and prepare for the Grand Merge. With an angel hunting the Coin of Mammons, the Fallen Spawn realized that he had little time left.
All the Coins were rushing back to kill everyone and devour them. Two Coins would attack
"I must begin forming my Fallen Form!"
There were nine Cardinals and twenty-four Commanders that were fighting in the region and the armies of the Coins were all poised to fight it.
Suddenly, a massive amount of Greedlings began to die near the stomach region of the Gigantes.
The Coins began to tunnel through and travel using the veins of the Gigantes which acted as an underground highway for the Coins to move from one place to another.
The Coin of Mammons rushed out of the underground world and despite their massive piglike forms, they traveled swiftly.
"We have to be careful in showing ourselves! Since the two of us will be working together, let's strengthen the Greedlores by bestowing more power on them!" A Coin suggested.
"Agreed! We have to eliminate all beings within two days! Lord Fallen must be thinking of using the Gigantes' Antibodies to seek and destroy the angels!"
"He has not gained full control of it. Simply opening the mouth of these beasts already takes up so much energy. Unless that Angel harms the Gigantes, those Anti-Bodies won't-"
"RAAAAAAHHHHHH!"
The entire world trembled and a loud cry was heard all over the world.
Everyone was startled at what they saw.
The Gigantes was in pain!
Somewhere to the far east of the land, Nightwing plummeted down to the ground as he was drained of energy.
Nightwing's holy form vanished and he could not even maintain enough energy to fly!
Krysta cursed and used her powers to save Nightwing and catch him as he fell.
She glanced at the end of the place where the 'edge of the world' was. They had reached the furthest point of the Gigantes's body.
But now, a ray of light was piercing inside. Nightwing's powerful attack created a large cut that somehow slashed through the almost indestructible muscle lining of the Gigantes!
"...What power! The power to sever and cut through anything!" Krysta marveled as she watched the wall which was starting to close.
Nightwing was so exhausted that he could barely move. He used the strongest attack that he could manage. The power was similar to a Crown but because of his dark form, the avatar and the crown did not manifest fully when he prepared for it.
"Let's... go. Use the magic to send us away. Bring us as far as you can in that direction." Nightwing did his best to point.
Krysta nodded and held on to the Devouring Core and used the spell engraved on her right arm. Because of her unique body, Krysta received several engravings that allowed her to cast magic if she just sends energy into the energy formation circle written on her arm.
Mages of the Midlands did this and would use specialized material or steel where the spell was engraved. But with Krysta, her entire body could be used. This was a weaker form of the Spell Slot that mages in the Highlands or the Netherlands had.
But Krysta had something similar to a spell slot.
The spell engraved on her right arm was [Portal]. Krysta used the Devouring Core's Time/Space abilities and the Talisman and they moved out.
As the magic gathered, Krysta could sense the arrival of terrifying beasts. All at the level of the Cardinals!
This was what Nightwing warned her but she quickly activated the spell before the beasts even saw them.
WARP!
The pair appeared at a mountain region that was overlooking a swamp land that extended as far as their eyes could see.

"The Swamp Lands," Krysta recalled the region that she and her family traveled through on her memories long ago.
"Or... the intestines of this Gigantes. This was the path you took to get to the heart, right?"
"...Yes," Krysta answered.
"Let's move. I can sense Angelian beyond this region. That attack will delay the Coins more so that Monica and Sherah can make their preparations."
"Nightwing... What were those creatures? They were not here when we first traveled here."
"The antibodies of this Gigantes. They lie dormant and will only awaken if the Gigantes are hurt. The Fallen Spawn cannot control them. Although he has stayed here for hundreds of years, fully controlling this world is something that those who are Celestials can do! Even I would need to be at least a Cherubim to have hopes of controlling this."
"But the battles we had inside this world were also terrifying. My father was similar to a peak Cardinal and the powers he revealed here could match Crowns! Yet those creatures never attacked!"
"Normally, they wouldn't appear as the insides of the Gigantes is an expected battleground. There are only certain areas that it will defend which will seem like large stones or mountains to our eyes but are actually organs of the beast."
"Then what was that which you attacked?"
"You don't know? That cut made an opening that could lead to the outside world. Had you moved through it, you would have been somewhere in the mountain regions around the Black Fog Kingdom."
Krysta was shocked at what she heard.
"In short, that attack made a wound and forced the Anti-Bodies to appear. The Gigantes is looking for us. I had to use my light form to make a wound so that the antibodies would be looking for an angel. And now, I will assume a vampire's form. You'll have to hunt some greedlings for me, though. Let's go. Carry me towards that region. I can sense Angelian nearby."
As Kyros moved into the swamp lands, the Antibodies, which were eight-meter-tall stony giants arrived at the area and roared and began to spread out to search for the assailant.
The Coins surfaced when the Antibodies left and used a spell to show their lord the attack.
"A wound?! That angel managed to cut open a wound?!" The Fallen Spawn saw the massive cut that was slowly closing and knew what level of strength was necessary to make that attack.
"My lord... What do we do?" A Coin asked.
"Return to your targets and kill them swiftly! Stay in pairs! The angel has drawn the attention of the AntiBodies which is a good thing. It won't be able to openly fly out of the area anymore. Hurry! We have to start the Grand Merger before more Angels arrive!"
"At your command!" The Coins moved.
While the Coins moved up north, Monica and Sherah had already assimilated with another group of survivors and slew over a hundred Greedlings.
The two stood in front of another group of survivors which had a greater number than them.
Three Cardinals stood at the forefront of several groups. The team had survived, but it was clear that there was still lingering animosity between the camps unlike when Krysta gathered the team.
"Oh? A Commander led this group? Your Body Snatchers are quite something." A Cardinal praised.
Sherah chuckled.
"Our benefactor allowed us to appear close to each other." But then, Sherah's expression changed.
"We've seen another platoon get wiped out. As you know, these creatures acquire what they kill. We had to flee from those Greedlores. Yes, they are Greedlores, not Darklores." Sherah explained as she pointed at one of the dead Darklores which was now transforming into a strange pig!
"What?!" The crowd echoed out in shock.
"Darklings can't gain strength from what they eat. Greedlings on the other hand, can." Sherah explained as several small spiders began to move out of the Greedling and start to move over another one.
The Cardinal saw it and raised his head.
"You are a strange Hive Queen. Your spiders seem unique."
"A gift from my benefactor. In any case, we have to prepare. The Coins are moving. We need to make a plan!" Sherah explained as she revealed a magic stone that could record a scene.
The scene of the Coin of Mammon receiving powerful attacks from several Commanders was revealed.
All who watched it had horrified expressions.
"What... was that?!" A Cardinal exclaimed.
"We don't know. But there are many of them! The holder of this stone recorded this last moment before he died. We were able to kill the beast, but the other Commanders died from the poison..."
"What do you propose?" The Cardinal asked.
"We have to move to the Swamplands. The poisonous miasma in that region is deadly to these Coins. We make our stand there!" Sherah urged.
