Odyssey To Dominion

Chapter 24: 24. Death’s door Abyss magic



A Few Moments Later.

In a corridor-like passage in the dungeon, water could be seen dripping from the roof to the ground, as cracks could be seen on the walls. Then, the place began shaking.

*BOOOOOM* a little girl could be seen running on the ceiling upside down like a blur, *SCKREEEECH* a giant centipede capable of filling half of the corridor appeared in a frenzied chase against this little girl. The little girl spoke, "I KNEW THIS THING WAS FAST BUT NOT THIS FAST!" and the monster responded *SCKREEEEE*, this girl was Nytri,

As this dungeon is known as the Abyssal Sanctum, all the monsters here have a connection to abyss energy, including this giant monster and Nytri.

Nytri's thought as her voice hasn't been restored yet, "It keeps getting closer!" as she was running on the roof, "With its size there's no way it can avoid the poison. "POISON CONTROL *Purple poison appeared before her like water falling* and gather it into a sphere* the poison gathered into a sphere* I don't need to fire it." The poison moves to her right and falls landing on the monster in pursuit. "More, this won't be enough to stop it. Then I'll make it stream, that'll take too much EP but I can manage until I reach the trap beyond the fire place (Lava floor). POISON CONTROL, then this." She moves her hands behind her as the poison appears from her hands and falls like a sprinkler with the monster being only 5metres from Nytri crawling on the ground, the boulders and small path made it difficult to reach its top speed and catch her.

As the poison fell on the monster, it kept taking damage which stung it bad, then it pushed itself into the ceiling barely hitting Nytri, *BOOOM*, "ARRGGHH!" although Nytri wasn't hit, she lost her footing on the ceiling as she started to fall to the ground, "NO NO NO NO NO NO! WHAT DO I DO?!" the monsters pushed itself from the ceiling aiming for Nytri who was falling as she pointed her hands to the monster, "IN THAT CASE ABYSSAL MAGIC > ABYSS FIRE." Abyssal fire which is the same color as fire but with a darker appearance was fired from her hands to the monsters open mouth ready to gnaw her, it got burnt but the force from the fire pushed Nytri further. "The abyssal fire can push me, then more."

She fell on the ground and without even getting up, released more of the abyssal fire as she was pushed on the floor onto her feet and kept using the fire to create distance, the monster was enraged so it charged even fiercer towards Nytri as it was encased by a blue light and its speed wasn't hindered anymore, "This thing is using a skill, one hand is not enough, my hands and feet can produce the fire and make me faster. I'll keep my feet close to the ground if I'm falling. ABYSSAL MAGIC > ABYSS FIRE." Fire came from her hands and feet like a jet and she sped up in the corridor but the monster was still approaching. As she looks ahead of her she sees light in the color of fire at the end of the corridor.

"It's getting hotter ahead, meaning the fire place (Lava Floor) is just there." She pushes herself even more as the monster was gaining on her. Then she made it on the floor, due to exhaustion, she moved forward to a platform made of earth on the lava floor and she landed on it. "It should fall into the fire soon, I can use this to rest a bit and move on to the trap. Huh?" the centipede monster pushed the entrance of the corridor as a boulder smashed into Nytri as she was embedded into a wall with the boulder smashing her right leg, her throat hadn't been healed so she couldn't even scream in pain. "M….M…..M….My leg." Then the monster fell into the lava as it was burnt.

But it wasn't done yet, the centipede whose length could be seen although a part of it wasn't yet in the room was over 30metres long as that part jumped out of the lava and fell into it again *SCKREEEE* in pain, then it saw Nytri embedded in the wall, "SHIT (She heard it from the vendors) I have to move." She puts her hands on the boulder pinning her into the wall trying to push it but to no avail, "DAMN (this is from drunks), MOVE!" the monster starts to push itself through the lava towards Nytri as more of it's body enters the lava floor reaching 50metres at this point. "I… I can't move it." She looks at her hands on the boulder as her brown eyes seem devoid of light, "NO OTHER WAY! SKIN HARDENING!" she hardens her hands as they become sharp as knifes and she starts to cut the right side of her stomach to the center and down, she grits her teeth through the pains as she breathes heavily then she cuts that part of. She pushes her self to the side and clings to the wall with her back as the monster slams into the place she was a second after moving, "REGENERATION! REGENERATION! REGENERATION! REGENERATION! AAOOOWWWW! REGENERATION! IT'S COMING! WEB CONTROL > HARDENED SPEARS | THREADS!" she makes a spear and throws it to the roof and swings with the threads to a platform about 10 meters away from the monster.

She tries to get up then she sees the blood left on the wall she was clinging to, she was horrified but she grits her teeth and uses a spear to make it to her feet, "I can't reach the trap like this, I have to fight it here. I'll use the fire, I'M NOT LOSING TO THIS THING!" she looks at her hand gripping the spear and a purple screen appears,

The monster pulls itself from the wall as a hole could be seen reaching about 5metres deep, the monster roars *SCKREEEEE* and looks at Nytri, Nytri hisses at it. The monster then charges again at her as Nytri readies herself for a jump, she holds the spear with both hands bends down a bit and jumps over the monster, but it knew of her intentions so it also move upwards and caught her remaining leg and bit her as she grits her teeth, "WE"RE FALLING INTO THE FIRE! GRRGHE" she uses her spear and pulls herself up the monster as her leg is ripped off by the knee, she breathes heavily as she continues to chant REGENERATION in her mind. The monster falls in the lava as it splashes on Nytri, she turns and uses her hands hoping to cover herself. The lava eats into her hands as her left arm falls off with holes visible on her body even losing her right eye, "HOT! HOT! ARRGG!" with her remaining hand, she throws a web towards a platform as she pulls herself to it, her remaining knee was dipped in the lava and the bleeding stops but the pain increases a lot.

She breathes heavily on the platform as the heat enters her body, "It's too hot, too hot! ABYSSAL MAGIC > ABYSS ICE, freeze everything, everything!" she releases EP from her body but it's only enough to freeze the platform she is on until her EP reached 0, "No, not enough. I won't die, not now, not ever! Freeze, freeze, FREEZE!" nothing happened, she looks up at the ceiling and notices the lava moving, the monster was getting up, her ice starts to melt, "Damn it (From a drunk), I need EP, it hurts, hurts so much. REGENERATION, regeneration." A silver-white light flashed across her eyes as a strange energy pulse in her but her vision starts to lose focus, a purple screen appears before her unfocused eye.

Nytri kept chanting in her mind, "Freeze, regeneration, freeze, regeneration." As she was losing consciousness, the energy around her, in the air, earth platform and in the lava started surging towards her as if being siphoned, the energy entering her body was causing her harm as her body was being burned in the process but she was healing and freezing everything around her. In a few seconds, the lava around her started to freeze as it spread across the floor, the monster pounced on her again but even it started to freeze, it was only about half a meter from her before its head was completely frozen, the ice spread across the floor until a storm was snowstorm was seen freezing everything even the monsters hiding in the lava. Nytri was also freezing but with her constant regeneration she was healing, and this was even tempering her body making it tougher and durable.
