Chapter 1163 Uri’s Return
Date- 5 April 2321
Time- 04:09
Location- Southern Region, Blossom district, Unknown
"f.u.c.k," Uri who was carrying unconscious Luna cussed out loud learning that his two other bodies died without being able to achieve their agenda. Then he remembered how his handler warned him that all three of him would be required to complete this mission, so he decided to head back but the problem was Luna. If they were to fight while carrying her around then he could not be able to use his most useful ability, Mobius Presence.
With no time to waste, Uri acted on the first thought that came to his mind. Using his earth elemental rune he buried Luna alive in an underground tomb. This way he could pick her up midway through his return.
Then he revived one of his bodies, climbed on it, and asked it to use the card to exchange its life force for explosive speed so that he could reach the cemetery without wasting much time. Upon reaching the cemetery, the body that used the forbidden card dissipated as it had exchanged its life force for speed, allowing Uri to return to the cemetery within seconds. Only to hear Agent Lois, "General, stop talking nonsense with that old hag and focus on the mission, we only have 8 minutes left. I will hold her back, you go get the boy."
So, Uri decided to not reveal his presence and use this opportunity to kill the boy using his other two bodies under the effect of Mobius Presence. But unfortunately for him, in the rush to arrive here while not wasting time, he had already revealed his arrival, "Found you, handover my grandniece, or forget about leaving her alive."
Colleen did not learn of the kidnapping of Luna until later. With Lorenzo in a coma, Luna missing, and commander Anna unreachable, the temporary southern watch base took its time to establish a new chain of command and immediately inform their General of the bad news.
Learning about what happened in the temporary base, Colleen was super mad but then a thought struck her, why did her sister-in-law not act to protect her husband and granddaughter? Thinking this far, hot-headed Colleen immediately calmed down. And instead of immediately attacking Agent Lois and General Baylor, she decided to have them surrender and get the news on the demiG.o.d that kidnapped her grandniece. This was one of the main reasons why she decided to talk reason with General Baylor when he offered to. After all, torturing the answers she wanted from them would take time. Which she did not have.
But to her surprise, the missing demiG.o.d returned, saving her time. So ignoring Agent Lois's needless taunt she looked toward his location and said, "Found you, hand over my grandniece or forget about leaving her alive."
Then turning to demiG.o.d Baylor she said, "General Baylor if the words you just spoke were true then stand aside. I will let you talk to the boy when I am done with them."
"Your highness, what I said was indeed true. Though I will not fight you, I will be talking with the boy on my own terms and decide on what to do next," With Uri's return, the battleground was evened again. Baylor wanted to use this moment to have a heart-to-heart with the boy. He did not care that in a few minutes, Field Marshal Heatsend would arrive, or the organization he was forced to join would label him as a traitor, right now all he cared about was the boy. That was reckless but he was confident in his strength.
"Backster, guard the boy with your life. Ann, honey, try and hold that girl till I return. I will be quick," Colleen did not spare Baylor a glance and headed toward Uri who had captured Luna trusting her allies would be able to hold their ground.
Uri hurriedly revived his other two bodies seeing the approaching Colleen. Colleen timed her arrival next to Uri such that she could capture all there of Uri's body in her ability, "Verglas Speculum"
As soon as Uri's other bodies were revived, the moisture in the air surrounding them froze to form a thin sheet of Ice Mirror reflecting their image that morphed into Colleen. Then these Colleens grabbed them and dragged all three of them into the Ice Mirror. All three of Uri's bodies resisted but to their surprise, their strength was being used against them. The harder they struggled the stronger the pull on them became, similar to a quicksand before they could figure out the principle behind these mirror images of theirs that morphed into Colleen, they were dragged into a new world, a cold replica of the one they were used to living in.
"Now that you are here, you can forget about leaving," Original Colleen's voice sounded while the three bodies of Uri were being entangled by their reflection that had morphed into Colleen.
"Give up, those reflections are equally strong as you, the more you struggle the more you are tiring yourselves out. What the heck were you thinking by gathering all three bodies of yours in one place," Colleen did not understand why someone with Uri's physique would gather all his bodies in one place. Did he not know the consequence of that?
"Because we are stronger together. Arghhh," all three of Uri's bodies said in unison as their strength suddenly increased by three times and they shattered the mirror images of Colleen with their new strength. Then they added, "It is you who should be worried about being locked with us in a closed s.p.a.ce."
"Interesting, what kind of buff are you using? My mirror images were not able to mirror them," Colleen asked as she was surprised to see that her ability was not able to mirror the strength buff that Uri's three bodies suddenly gained.
"It's the innate buff of our physique, for it to work all three of us should be within a melee range of each other. Your mirror image may be able to mirror our strength but they are not us so they do not meet the requirement to use our buff, even if they were able to mirror the buff," Uri explained and added, "the flow of time seems to slow here."
"No, time is not slow but your body is slowing as the vibration of the soul pathway in your body is slowing down under the effect of the cold here. The longer you are here the slower you will get until the vibration of the soul pathways of your body gets decreased to the point where they will not be able to maintain your current shape and your body will shatter like a block of ice," Colleen explained the additional effect of her ability.
"Was this why I felt like being in a quicksand when in contact with those mirror images?" Uri said figuring out why he could not struggle free from being dragged into this cold world of Colleen's ability.
