BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"AHHHH!"
"You dare ambush us?!" An Antibody sent a smashing combo that blew away the parts of the Silver.
"WHY?!" The Silver shouted in confusion.
"You know why!"
BANG!
The enraged Antibodies began to attack and attack the Silver and massacred three armies of Greedlings.
Watching beyond the Swamplands were Nightwing and his allies.
"Poetic, isn't it? The limited knowledge of the Antibodies. The Parasite of Greed had already made a strange building but just because it didn't hurt, they won't attack the Silver and Coins."
"...How did you... a Paladin makes that attack...?" A Cardinal asked.
"Oh, It wasn't me. It was her." Nightwing brushed off the golem cardinal's question.
The Antibodies saw the Silver launch an attack and created a powerful cut that contained an incredible amount of darkness. And from the eyes of the Antibodies, it was as if the Silver attacked and fled.
"But... that darkness!"
"It's a... weapon we prepared. You all foolishly entered this place without preparation. My family has been stocking up great darkness for a long time." Nightwing answered. He knew that if he kept quiet and acted mysterious, the survivors would begin to question him.
"Our plan has always been to destroy that structure that allowed communication. So we prepared. The magic Krysta who has a deeper heritage compared to the fake Saint Sword family can harness it. Of course, it's still my Force energy that has to be cut. I'm not comfortable wielding the darkness."
"Why aren't we fleeing?" The Bee Cardinal asked.
"And leave all those to be devoured by the Greedlings? If we don't get rid of that body, another Coin could eat it and we'd have to face this army behind us. No. We wait for them to get massacred, go back, and use my portal spell to get rid of the body."
The Cardinal nodded in understanding and they watched as the battle quickly ended.
The power of the Antibodies made was reaching Crown level and several minutes passed and the armies were eliminated.
The messy, gory, land was all that was left below as the Antibodies departed and zoomed toward the heart.
"That should buy us some time." Nightwing smiled.
"Will those... things attack the Fallen Spawn?"
"No. The Fallen Spawn will have means to avoid clashing with them. The Gigantes are clearly not allied to this Fallen Spawn. There should be some form of deal between them. But they are not obliged to help them. So that's a good thing. As long as we pick our fight and try not to damage the heart in the upcoming fight, we should be fine." Nightwing began to move using Force Energy to fly toward the location of the battlefield.
Krysta and Angelian followed.
The group of demi-humans watched as the trio moved.
"Thank goodness they are here..." A Commander sighed.
"They must be from the Highlands. There's no way that they would be that strong and smart!" The Golem Cardinal sighed.
Nightwing flew and kept releasing holy energy.
"Ugh... I hate this holy light." Nightwing sighed as they left.
"...What you told them... is it true?"
"About the Gigantes having a deal? Yes. And it's more complicated than what I told them. I'm sure that by the time we get to the Fallen Spawn we would have to fight those Antibodies."

"What?!" Angelian and Krysta chorused in horror.
"A Fallen Spawn of a Phaulos is not to be underestimated. They never hold their part of the bargain. So this Fallen Spawn wanted access to the heart of the Gigantes. But do you remember the parasitic organs that he created? He must have tricked the Gigantes into making it so that he can control his Coins and Silver all over the place. But it's also an experiment. He tested there, and with that who knows what he can do to the heart? I'm betting that because of my little angel appearance, he will be forced to fuse with it."
"You mean, he will be a parasite of the heart?!"
"That's the worst case. This means, he can shoot us with all his strong spells, but if we fight back and attack him, then those Antibodies move."
"The Gigantes was his goal all along! That's why it's been taking so long to finish his process!" Krysta understood.
"Exactly. He wants to become the Gigantes and that needs a lot amount of energy. Not to mention, he's very careful not to alert Fate or Destiny. So he's gunning for the neutrals or the rejects."
"These are all rejects?" Krysta was confused.
"Master. When you said that you want to kill them, I don't understand. They are strong. But how is it that all of them are not warriors of Fate or Destiny?"
"They are barely passable if you ask me. Listen, Fate Challengers, and Destiny Challengers may not necessarily have high cultivation. You guys are so caught up in cultivation levels in this world. 'To beat a Champion, be a Commander. To beat a Commander, be a Cardinal.' Or, at the very least be several levels higher than them. Those are all stupid. Angelian. I've defeated and killed people stronger than my original state when you met me."
"But... You... tricked us. You got us to kill each other. And when we fought, you did have a power that could match Crown!"
"Tricking you, yes. But it's my power. [Deception]. You keep forgetting that I am a Fallen. And that was one of my most powerful spells, to be honest. How do you think I managed to trick the Antibodies into that attack? There is a power a work that you couldn't see when I used it."
"...I saw it. The place around was... full of this unnatural power." Krysta added.
"See! And as for my temporary rise to Crown. I did not have the time to contain that power as you did. If I had your advantages then, I wouldn't flee even if I face a Conqueror. Heck, I could even kill one." Nightwing spoke as they landed over the huge corpse of beasts. He stabbed his sword and the blood began to spread out and was creating a large energy formation circle.
Angelian was quiet. But she did agree. She had far greater advantages than Nightwing but lost.
"Fate Challengers and Destiny Challengers are strong because of something else. They are favored, they are blessed. But mostly, they are capable of overcoming the impossible. None of those freaks are any of those. So everyone here except for those I deem to live will be alive after this."
Angelian remained quiet.
"Can't you use them as allies?"
"Use Neutrals as allies? That's stupid. It's very difficult to turn a Fate Challenger and make it one of Destiny. But Neutrals are easy. Unless they are True Neutrals like dragons or this Fallen Spawn, they're more likely to be ticking time bombs. My precious Mysterion is too dangerous to be entrusted to them. They can only be killed. Saving them will cost us greatly."
Angelian was quiet and resisted the temptation to turn around and glance at the demi-humans.
"But how can we fight several Antibodies or kill the Fallen Spawn if we can't fight it?" Krysta asked.
"That's why I'm bringing all the armies up there to the heart. It's a distraction. The only thing that can kill the Antibodies is the Gigantes itself. So while you fight a great battle against it, I will find a way to communicate with the Gigantes. This means I might have to move up the heart and towards the brain of this Gigantes."
"How much time would you need? Are you going to teleport your way there?"
"I probably can't. The Gigantes would have defensive measures against that. That's why you guys need to keep fighting for hours... or days."
"We won't be able to hold on that long!"
"Not you. Don't worry. What do you think Sherah is doing?" Nightwing smiled.
At the edge of the Swamplands...
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The gigantic pig fell down as it squealed its last.
The large Coin couldn't even speak as it felt its blood being drained.
Five large spiders stood next to Sherah as she led the team.
"Another Coin down. That makes four of them..." Sherah smiled.
"Prepare the spell! Let's get this last creature out and head into the Swamplands... Let's hunt those remaining Coins!" A Cardinal laughed.
Everyone followed and began to prepare the massive teleportation spell that Sherah taught them.
