The demon's words splashed over Nicholas like freezing liquid, transforming his face into the look of one at war. A holy war.
Kit'Karum, prepare for a battle against the spirits! The creature of darkness has revealed its purpose, and it's worse than I feared. The shadows which tempted to pervert his blade caused the angel to shudder, and he swiftly doused the darkness by swiping the blade through the shimmering wards still orbiting his body.
We are with you, Nicholaius. I bid you Godspeed.It was tempting to smile, but the wrath of the Divines would only be fulfilled through solemn judgement. Still, a tiny grin played at the edge of the angel's lips as he quietly muttered: "Godspeed, it is." Suddenly the breeze which wafted so gently through the forest roared with the power of an hundred wings, creating a powerful wind. The angel's physical form shattered into rays of light, burning brighter than the midday sun. After a few moments the blinding light subsided to reveal a new figure, an angel in Godspeed form. The cloak which formerly covered his body was missing, now wrapped around his waist as a skirt. His skin glowed with ethereal power from head to toe, and even his hair had changed from raven black to snowy white. Perhaps the most extravagant part of the transformation was the two mighty wings with protruded from his back.
And in his hands, the
Aegisess pulsed with a light of its own as wards traversed up and down the length of the blade.
"May God lend His mercy, because I will not!" His deafening voice could be heard for at least a half-mile area.
"By divine strength, and for divine right,
Let these souls of darkness be banished tonight!"
As the final words of the chant escaped his lips, the angel twirled his blade about the demon, dismissing the shadows with
Aegisess's holy light. "Depart from his body, dwellers of the Gehenna! Depart or be destroyed!"
