Chapter 42 - Chapter 42 the choice to be made and the price

Cu had been thinking about what he will do for some time now as in the game you get to choose whether to save the world temporarily or to become the next god until you become corrupted like them.

with his arms raised he both absorbed as much magic as possible to support him before casting this blasted spell

the first thing he did was used the most annoyingly difficult magic to teleport masses of people and targets so he forced everyone that wasn't related to the gods or were clad divine magic to be sent to a world that still had magic the world that Bahamut was from originally including a certain woman that he really didn't want to meet.

while he wanted to eliminate the dragons it wasn't possible with his current mental capacities to add more 'settings' to the magic spell so he had to put it off, for now, the false dragon god that acted as the vessel for the chalice was attempting to kill him.

the cool thing about attempting fate was you will never know what it will do until it happens!

Cu still in the form of Cerberus was forced to tank a tackle from the damned False dragon as he was forced to stay in place since his summons were occupied with the army of abominations and the large winged mummy.

they were doing a great job but that would only last for so long.

Cu was able to complete the task at hand but only after suffering 3 more blows that rattled his insides.

As the pained roar assured him of that and the large arm that crashed down from the skies.

As for the task he had just completed?

he had isolated this world from anything else thus the god's arm was severed and the small price of getting smacked around by the dragon god archfiend was worth it.

the only issue now was he lacked the majority of his magic since that spell always empties him out but at least it didn't affect the Two Onis under his control, however, he was in a pickle right now he was currently unable to use any of his most powerful skills or spells and the life siphon was still on cooldown.

Thanks to the stacking ability, he couldn't regenerate properly without a 'sacrifice' and he highly doubted that the attacking archfiend would just sit back and watch him do so so what he was currently going through was according to the saying 'too much of a good thing is a bad thing'.

the lock he placed on the world was only going to last at least 60 seconds since multiple gods are trying to get into this world and kill him!

to make things even worse one of the valkyries a variant at that was stuck in this world too and she was getting swamped by a small horde of those abominations!

The really irritating thing was the dragon archfiend was empowered by the gods as a guardian to hold him back from completing his plans so with the long time wish of Bahamut and the strange connection this one has with him that was greater than the others of the flock, he made the painful choice...

he threw one of his spears at the valkyrie's attacks with as much power as he could muster as the spear broke the sound barrier tearing through every monster there saving the archfiend but his enemy took this opportunity to stab as many teeth and claws into his now defenseless back!

*KUK*

Teeth sank into his right shoulder and the long blade-like claws protruded out of his chest damage almost everything inside of his torso luckily for him the transformation as an archfiend and his current boost was what prevented him from dying so easily!

Yes he decided to take the attack on fully before raising his remaining spear then slamming the shaft of his weapon on the top of his attacker's head planting it into the ground forcing its claws and teeth to be ripped off of him, his damaged flesh to spurt out blood from how terribly the injuries were that was to kill a regular archfiend before staggering away to have some distance from the monster he was facing...

as his blood dripped to the stained ground but the enemies that were the risen dead began mobbing him using their bodies to attack him, hinder him while the sorcerers that died and joined their ranks began firing spells that were powered by corruption and the leftover divine power from the severed arm.

As their spells and attacks reached his body regardless of element brought some kind of harm as he struggled to stay standing suffering different ailments were the least of his problems now!

so he decided to use the one item he had stored away had one crowd control skill that he was planning on saving for later but this was an emergency and he wouldn't live for very long if Cu delayed it longer!

a simple drop of his blood was needed and he had to throw it nearby as it needed to be on the ground to begin.

with how bloodied he was? well, he did need to do much since when his blood spurted out it already covered the said device!

the first task was easy but for the second one, it will be a struggle as there were so many of them.

But luck was on his side, the Black Valkyrie released a screech and charged into the nearby group as if creating an opening as if it knew what he was holding...

there was only one person that he told it to in this world and she should be safe and sound at the old town unless... the flock converted her... yeah they'll get it later!

but for now, Cu quickly threw the artifact to the open area before it brought forth its wonders, a vortex was formed, and everything other than his summons and the valkyrie were pulled by the suction power it was a bizarre sight as the victim that were pulled in were grounded into lumps of meat.

their blood scattered about and the dragon archfiend was being hindered with 20 seconds it was more than enough to make a sacrifice thus the bloodied and beaten up Cerberus raised its arms using both arms to save and sacrifice to bolster his life and magic as much as possible as desperate times called for desperate measures!

save the living and sacrifice the dead no matter what it was as numerous blue and red orbs flew into him he feeling of omniscience filled his being, hell it was to the point that he stole a certain line from a certain P***oss and one the cheat codes of the game.

"𝕻𝕺𝖂𝕰𝕽 𝕺𝖁𝕰𝕽𝖂𝕳𝕰𝕷𝕸𝕴𝕹𝕲!!!"

what the orbs strengthened will be checked later until then, this reinvigorated Cerberus will take the final task in this world!

To save or to sacrifice this is something that he will have to choose and hopefully, it will be the right choice. (A/N what would be your choice, fellow sorcerers?)
