Ending Maker Chapter 246 - DIVINE SPIRIT'S WHISTLE (5)

Chapter 246 – DIVINE SPIRIT’S WHISTLE (5)

Some changes I made from the last episode:

“Block it!”

The moment Kajsa shouted out loudly, the sirens turned towards the waves. Some summoned spirits, and some used magic in order to block the waves.

Swiiiiiiiiiish-!

With a dull sound, the waves broke as it got blocked. But its aftermath shook the sirens. Moreover, that was not the end. New waves appeared again.

“The Kraken!”

Jude had figured out on what had happened. The Kraken trapped in the seal was trying to destroy the battle formation by creating underwater waves from afar. It was an application of its abilities to summon a storm.

Swoooooosh-!

The second group of waves broke.

The spirit warriors manipulated the sea current surrounding the seal, which they had prepared earlier for a what-if scenario, in order to stop the underwater waves, and Sarandis opened her eyes and tightened her grip on the trident after finis.h.i.+ng the spell.

And at that moment, the Kraken’s second counterattack began.

Psssh-!

Black ink gushed out from the seal’s hole.

Because the current surrounding the seal was gone, the black ink flowed out straight. It turned the surrounding area black, and also engulfed the sirens in the frontlines.

“Aaaaaah!”

The black water caused the sirens to scream and twist in pain because the ink had a strong poison in it.

“Sarandis!”

Jude cried out. But even before his cry reached her, Sarandis had already realized on what she needed to do. So instead of hesitating from her confusion, she threw the Sea G.o.d’s Trident with all her might.

“Haaaa!”

Baaaaang-!

A thunderous sound was heard even though they were underwater.

The Sea G.o.d’s Trident covered in golden lightning penetrated the s.p.a.ce at once, and its shockwaves broke through the black water, scattering the Kraken’s ink at once.

And that was why Jude was able to see it.

Sarandis who was in front must have also seen it.

Baang!

The seal’s ceiling collapsed. Because the Kraken broke the ceiling and tried to swim up.

Boom!

The Sea G.o.d’s Trident struck the ground, and the Kraken that was still pierced by the Sealing Sword of Light then struggled as it flailed around its dozens of legs simultaneously. As it continued to be pulled back to the ground by the power of the Sealing Sword of Light, the Kraken let out its powerful mana.

Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+

The Kraken’s legs couldn’t reach the sirens. Its legs were tens of meters long, but the distance between the sirens and the Kraken was quite far.

But the Kraken’s struggles didn’t simply end at just that.

The shockwaves generated by its flailing legs struck the sirens. The mana it emitted penetrated the minds of the sirens who were using magic.

“Aaaaah!”

The sirens who were using magic screamed and collapsed. Those who were hit by the shockwaves had their bodies be flipped and smashed. The attacks on the Kraken were naturally reduced, and at that moment, Jude figured out the Kraken’s goal.

Because he saw its two yellow eyes looking at the magic circle spread over its head.

“Attack!”

Sarandis ordered just then.

The cavalry who were waiting on the left and right charged towards the Kraken, and Kajsa who was with them gripped her trident.

Malthias who was standing besides Iliana was still focusing on maintaining the Sealing Sword of Light, but she delivered a new command to the spirit warriors.

“Use the currents to push it down!”

What she meant was that they had to push down the Kraken so that it couldn’t touch the magic circle.

But that wasn’t easy. Because the Kraken was causing a storm even in the midst of this. As new groups of waves came rus.h.i.+ng towards them, the sirens who were maintaining the Sealing Sword of Light and those manipulating the current were both swept away by the shockwaves.

————-!

The cavalry and the Kraken began to clash at that moment.

The Kraken writhed and swung its dozens of legs at the same time, and the cavalry dug in between and struck their weapons into its body.

But the Kraken was huge. Even though the tridents were huge for the sirens, it was only a small thorn for the Kraken, so they could only stab the surface but not properly wound it.

“Your Excellency!”

Chloe turned to Cordelia. And so did Sarandis.

Cordelia was the only one who could deal a fatal blow to the Kraken.

And Cordelia acted instinctively. She threw the Spear of Calamity to the Kraken.

Shwaaaa-!

The Kraken struggled even harder when it saw the Spear of Calamity flying with a terrifying power, but it couldn’t properly evade because of the Sealing Sword of Light.

The Spear of Calamity pierced the Kraken’s torso, and it struggled even harder as it loudly screamed.

———————!

It worked.

But Cordelia did not create a second Spear of Calamity. Instead of summoning the Spirit King, she turned to Jude.

Cordelia’s senses were telling her something like always.

That they couldn’t defeat the Kraken with their current method.

In fact, the Sealing Sword of Light was getting weaker.

“Jude.”

Jude also saw Cordelia. And he nodded his head. They then launched Plan B which they had planned in advance.

When Cordelia threw the Spear of Calamity, she then conveyed what she had observed and thought via magic.

Boooom!

The underwater waves caused by the Kraken became even stronger.

It spewed ink again, and the cavalry in the vicinity hurriedly retreated. But Kajsa didn’t do that. She spitted out a curse and deeply pushed the trident that had already been stabbed into the Kraken’s head.

————–!

Even if it was a small thorn, the situation was bound to change if that thorn stuck deeper inside.

The Kraken screamed and flailed, spewing ink that almost covered its body.

And Jude and Cordelia did not miss that gap.

“Your Excellency?!”

Instead of responding to Chloe’s call, Cordelia spread her wings of light. She flew down straight to the seabed, while Jude released his energy and used Landius’ signature flying technique. He rushed towards the Kraken.

“Die! Die!”

Kajsa pushed down another nearby trident in the Kraken’s head. She ignored the poisonous ink as her body could handle it.

——————!

The Kraken roared. It smacked itself with its leg in order to attack Kajsa, but she hurriedly swam away to evade the monster’s leg. And suddenly, Jude’s firm arm wrapped around Kajsa’s waist.

“Eh?”

The surprised Kajsa looked back at Jude, but he did not even look at her. He simply released his energy again to soar at a high speed as he evaded the Kraken’s legs and headed to the magic circle above them.

The Sealing Sword of Light became weaker.

The Kraken glared at Jude and Kajsa with its yellow eyes, and let out its immense magic power again.

It prevented the sirens from daring to charge towards it.

And Jude glared at such a Kraken. After roughly throwing Kajsa, he chanted the mnemonic chant of the Ninth Heaven’s Nine Doors. At the same time he opened the sixth door, he activated the power of the black sun.

Booooooom!

Everyone on the battlefield turned to Jude when he let out such an immense power. Even Kajsa who was cursing after being roughly thrown could only admire Jude at the tremendous force he released.

So the Kraken focused its attention on Jude again.

It was just as Jude had wished.

—————-!

The Kraken no longer caused underwater waves. Instead of struggling to remove the Sealing Sword of Light, the demon of the sea scattered around a curse.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!”

The sirens screamed as they grabbed their heads. Kajsa also struggled as she groaned in pain.

It was the result of the Kraken further strengthening its unique mental attack that caused fear and terror to its targets.

But Jude ignored it.

One of the abilities he got from opening the sixth door of the Ninth Heaven’s Nine Doors was an ability to protect the mind.

So instead of feeling fear and terror, he treated the Kraken with anger and hostility.

The Kraken stretched out its legs towards Jude. Dozens of tentacles on its mouth quickly extended and tried to capture Jude.

Jude calmly used Valencia’s swordsmans.h.i.+p. He let out black energy to his legs as he cut off the monster’s tentacles to protect himself. He remained in his current position.

If the Kraken had rushed and attacked, he wouldn’t be able to perform such acrobatic moves even if he was Jude, but the Kraken was now held down by the Sealing Sword of Light. It couldn’t do anything else to Jude as it could only stretch out its legs to him.

The sirens barely came to their senses at Jude’s amazing moves and were impressed, but Sarandis gritted her teeth.

Jude’s power was obviously great, but she realized that they couldn’t beat the Kraken in this way.

She had to focus her power again. The Sealing Sword of Light wouldn’t be able to last long, so they had to deal a fatal blow to it in that time.

‘The Sea G.o.d’s Trident.’

She had to recover it. The trident didn’t hit the Kraken, so it still had the power she had gathered.

Sarandis searched the seabed in a hurry. But she widely opened her eyes then.

Because the Sea G.o.d’s Trident had disappeared.

And it was at that moment.

[Juuuuude!]

Cordelia shouted.

Plan B.

To not kill the Kraken but to seal it again!

Cordelia grasped the Sea G.o.d’s Trident and inserted it into the sealing place where Perigeo’s Crystal Ball was originally located inside the seal. But this action alone wouldn’t reactivate the seal.

So Cordelia took an additional step.

Using the power of the trident as a resource, she poured mana into the sealing place and brought Moonlight to the place at the same time.

“Melissa!”

[You only look for me when you need me!]

Melissa let out her resentment, but she still responded to Cordelia’s wish as she was a kind and gentle artificial spirit.

Perigeo’s elves shared the same roots with Magellan’s elves, so Melissa could utilize the ancient system that the sirens gave up on because they couldn’t handle it.

“Oooooooo!”

The Sea G.o.d’s Trident replaced Perigeo’s Crystal Ball. And Cordelia herself replenished the lack of magic power!

All of the various magic recovery and amplification tools she received from the sirens were now utilized.

Under Melissa’s command, the seal system was restarted, and the powerful force of the seal overwhelmed the Sealing Sword of Light in its power as it began to pull the Kraken.

—————————————!

The Kraken struggled and resisted, but the sealing power was different from that of the Sealing Sword of Light.

It wasn’t long before it realized the situation – that it was bound to be sealed again.

—-!

——!

————!

Therefore, the Kraken prepared for a powerful curse.

Even if it was impossible for the human in front of it, it prepared a curse that would bring death to the sirens.

But Jude didn’t let it continue.

The moment it gathered magic for the curse, he ran towards the opposite direction.

As the monster tried to cast a curse as its final move, he headed to the Kraken’s head – to be exact, the eyeball that Cordelia had destroyed. He landed on it and at the same time, he struck out his sharp sword-like hand.

But for the Kraken, it was still only a small thorn.

So instead of screaming, the Kraken continued to prepare its curse without worrying about Jude.

But Jude moved a little faster this time.

Having seen Cordelia use up all her mana at once to summon the Spirit King’s right arm, he put into practice what he had thought.

The Black Sun.

Until now, Jude had only used the power of the Black Sun to generate powerful energy or to strengthen the energy of the black dragon.

But it was different this time.

He released the energy in his entire body at once, just like what Cordelia did.

Instead of using a skill or creating a wave of energy, he concentrated the pure power of the sun.

Yang energy in contrast to Yin energy.

Although its color was black, it was definitely the power of the sun.

At that moment, he activated the Supreme Sun Divine Art.

He maximized the Yang energy of the Black Sun.

Light.

And heat.

The true power of the sun was released through Jude’s fingertips!

———————————–!

The Kraken screamed.

It cried out.

It was on the verge of losing its mind at the tremendous pain it had experienced for the first time.

Its head was burning.

The immense heat of the sun messed up its head.

———————!

The Kraken was unable to resist anymore.

It could no longer cast the curse as it just screamed.

[Jude!]

Jude responded to Cordelia’s call. He removed his sword-like hand from the Kraken and kicked its head at the same time. Kajsa grabbed Jude who was unable to move because he had exhausted all of his energy.

“Melissa!”

When Cordelia saw the scene, she urged Melissa to activate the final stage of the sealing system.

The Kraken temporarily became unconscious as a subs.p.a.ce door opened and dragged the monster inside it.

Booom-!

The Kraken’s body touched the bottom of the seal, causing a vibration, but that was it.

The subs.p.a.ce door swallowed up the Kraken once again, just like how it did a long time ago.

The seal was completed.

“Haa… haa…”

Cordelia panted as she leaned against the Sea G.o.d’s Trident that had completely become part of the seal now.

She slowly raised her head, and smiled when she saw the unconscious Jude being supported by Kajsa.

Several rings of white light surrounded Jude’s body, though it was unknown if it was rewarded from repelling an enemy or from successfully sealing it.

And right after that.

At the moment when Cordelia began counting the number of rings that surrounded her own body.

“Uoooooooooooo!”

“We won!”

“We defeated the Kraken!”

The sirens shouted and cheered. They also shouted the names of Jude and Cordelia as they rejoiced.

She couldn’t hear it much because they were underwater, but Cordelia also smiled. She sat on the floor, picking up the fallen Moonlight and saying.

“We won.”

[Congratulations.]

Melissa plainly said, and Cordelia smiled again.

In the midst of their victory, she kissed the Moonlight’s golden jewel as if to soothe Melissa who was sulking a bit.
