Chapter 1417 Closing The Gates!

Chapter 1417 Closing The Gates!

-----
"WE exist within every single living being of HELL!" Roared the entity. "We are the COMBINED Will! We are ONE, yet we are MANY! We are… LEGION!"
Its tendrils which were cut down suddenly started to transform, becoming smaller Demonic Beasts that rushed towards us, attempting to stop what we were trying to do!
"Fuck outa here!" I roared, swinging my newly acquired Demonic Weapon, the Demonic Beast Bone Axe, which cleanly cut through dozens of small Demonic Beasts with ease, crushing them into smithereens and burning them to ashes as it unleashed explosive Demonic Flames!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
"Haha, this weapon's not bad!" I laughed.
"YOU CAN WIELD OUR WEAPONS?!"
Legion suddenly panicked. If I was right, this guy must be something like Hell's own version of Yggdrasil, a collective consciousness created from all the living beings that is something akin to a God that oversees it all.
It is most likely working in conjunction with Pandemonium to create these Hell Gates!
"Not really well, but it's a start." I smiled, as I opened my jaws and unleashed an explosive Frost and Holy Light Dragon Breath, freezing the tentacles rushing down towards us.
BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!
"RAAAAH!"
At the same time, Benladann appeared from above the frozen tentacles, her two axes suddenly beginning to glow brightly as they fused together into a giant silver and pink-colored halberd, channeling her Spirit's powers.
"[Divine Moonlight Dragon's Halberd]!"
CLAAAAAASSSSH!!!
RUMBLE!
Her powerful attack unleashed a destructive shockwave, blowing up the frozen tentacles one after another, as I used my axe to chop the pieces left and burn them into ashes, making sure they wouldn't turn into Demonic Beasts.
"We're getting closer!" I roared, as we kept flying across the skies, evading the countless tentacles as they came while clashing against those we couldn't evade nor dodge. My Divine Weapons and my Divine Spirits flew around me, intercepting the attacks constantly.
"Almost… there!" Benladann roared, her halberd clashing against the tentacles and pushing them away through a combination of Moonlight, Frost, and Chaos, a surprisingly powerful fusion of elements.
Explosions of many divinities spread across the red skies of Muspelheim as we made our way to the Hell Gates, quickly sensing that Surtr was already on the other side, which seemed much less guarded than the front!
"Master, I've already reached the back!" He notified me through telepathy.
"Good! Let's do this!" I roared, a smile surging on my dragon jaws as Benladann and I reached the Hell Gates and touched its red-colored stone pillars with our hands!
FRRRSSSSSSH!
The sensation of our flesh, bones, and blood boiling was almost instant. But I was able to constantly regenerate and therefore not be as affected. Benladann in the other side was channeling her Unique Skill, the Mold itself, as it seemed to slightly negate the Demonic Energy, perhaps because it was also an otherworldly force that defied this world's energies.
[Now! Unify your minds and divinities with Surtr and visualize chains wrapping around the Gates!]
The System's voice echoed inside of our minds at the same time, as we all coordinated our timing, instantly channeling all our Divinities at once into the palms of our hands!
"YOOUUU! What do you THINK you're DOING?!"
Legion seemed incredibly pissed, summoning hundreds of tentacles that rushed towards all three of us as we were concentrating. Our Divine Weapons and Divine Spirits doing their best to intercept them and push them away, giving us a bit more of time!
"RAAAAAHHH!!!"
Our roars combined together into a mighty eruption of divinities, countless colors swirling together and forming a mass of rainbow flames that started to cover the entire Hell Gate, slowly shaping themselves into chains, which then started freezing the gates.
"[Primordial Divine Demon-Sealing Chains]!"
FLAAAASH!
The chains kept growing in number and size, constantly wrapping the gates more and more with each passing second. The angered screams of Legion could be heard in the distance, as they were constantly attempting to break through our combined sealing spell.
"Visualize it… sealing it…!" Surtr roared, gritting his teeth. "Come on, come on…! [Heavenly Smith]! Please work!"
FLUOOOOOSH!
And then, Surtr finally activated his Unique Skill in the very last moment, his powers fusing together with the chains we created and then the Hell Gates themselves, combining both components into what he visualized as the Gates slowly growing smaller and smaller!
TRUUUM…!
"T-This can't be…! W-What are you DOING?!"
TRUUUUM…!
"To think you can close Hell Gates!"
TRUUUUMM…!
"We will not FORGET this!"
TRUUUUMMM…!
"WE WILL BE BACK! AND THIS WORLD… WILL BE OURS!"
TRUUUUUMMMMM…!
The Hell Gates reduced in size to almost ten meters, distorting space, and time as it started to be erased, not by our powers, but by someone else, the equivalent of Legion of this world, of course.
"I will NOT accept you within my WORLD! As long as I LIVE!"
It was the Will of Yggdrasil, who emerged out of the entire Continent, using my body and Divine Powers as her recipient to call her Will all the way here quickly, and channel a large quantity of her weakened powers.
FLAAAAASSSH!!!
The Hell Gates quickly flashed with a bright, golden light, until they completely disappeared, officially closing the damned Gates once and for all!
Peace and silence finally took over the entire atmosphere. There were no more Demonic Beasts either, all of them were slain by our families.
We were finally given the chance to sit down and sigh in relief…
"Hahhh… That was… so intense." Benladann sighed. "Ugh… I need some vacations, dear."
"Honestly, same." I laughed. "This right after the Flame Emperor's battle… It's not really good for my mental health."
"W-We did it…" Surtr sighed in relief, laughing happily. "I don't care about anything else right now, let me just… enjoy the happiness of victory…"
"I guess we are allowed to do so much." I smiled, slowly standing up. "But this place is not really a good spot to rest, let's go back to the mountain with everyone else for now."
