Omake: Partial Necrosis

Ash and the LGD were encountering Mephisto's herd aplenty. Without the robed special forces of Yan taking care of them, Mephisto's abominations wreaked havoc. But he will change that.

With a raise of his hand. The originium crystals on the abominations exploded inside of their bodies like frag grenades, turning them into mists of gore and blood.

His sword then absorbed it and the LGD stared right at the three meter tall behemoth.

"Who are you..." Ch'en sobered up from her shock and glared at him, seeing his strength and the eery aura coming from the sword.

"Me? I already told you Ch'en. I am Talulah and your husband. Well, in another dimension at least. Just know that I'm on your side." He squeezed his hand and all the abominations popped.

"Amiya... This is quite bad, who the hell is this guy?" Blaze who was giving the dokutah a piggyback ride was feeling the creeps.

"We do not know Blaze, but he is on our side. And I can feel it with my arts, it's like he knows me..." Amiya used her arts to empathize with him and Ash only had pleasant thoughts about them.

"Really? Okay, I trust you." Blaze furrowed her brows and the doctor that was in a suit from head to toe looked at Ash curiously.

"Beatrix, go with Hoshiguma and control the slums. I've taken care of the abominations. Arrest Reunion members that are left behind." Ash ordered them and the tiger feline Beatrix raised a brow at him.

"Why would I do that?" She huffed at him and he started walking towards her. She only reached his hips and even the 6 feet tall Hoshiguma only got to the middle of his abdomen.

Ch'en tensed up with Hoshiguma and Beatrix gulped, regretting her choices in life.

He reached with his hand and started rubbing her ears. "Who's a good girl, Swire is! Now go clean up the Reunion members with Hoshiguma."

Swire purred for a few seconds and her tail swung left and right excitedly. "Ahhh! You bastard! What the hell did you do to me!?" Swire hit him on his stomach, but she felt like she was hitting steel plates.

"Works like a charm, your ears are sensitive after all Beatrix." He shrugged and he gestured for Ch'en to follow him.

Amiya, and Blaze who was carrying the doctor also followed, but the former wasn't happy with the current arrangement.

"And Amiya, try to pick my mind again and I will show you something that you won't like." Ash stared at her and Amiya gulped. His ominous words reached her to the core.

He then looked at the rings on her fingers and the suppressant choker on her neck. Nodding that she hasn't donned the black crown.

"Let's go." Ash ordered and they fought through groups of Reunion.

And they rested a bit for the doctor and LGD members that followed their battles that were too strenuous to continue for them.

While they were resting though, two people arrived. And the other was hidden.

"Who is he?" Kal'tsit looked at Ash warily. She has never seen someone with such a strong body before. Much, stronger than even Buldrokkas'tee.

"Yo, AMa. How are you doing?" Ash waved at her with a smile and Kal'tsit immediately shouted. "He's an enemy! Take him down! Mon3tr!"

Ash just held the black being with beady red eyes. Crushing its neck, a red blur then tried to stab him in the temple and he caught her easily.

"Woah, bad girl. Do you teach Red to assassinate people indiscriminately? Kal'tsit?" He grinned at her and she gnashed her teeth.

"W-what do we do?" Amiya was panicking and the LGD along with Ch'en also didn't know what to do.

"Relax Kal'tsit, I'm not your enemy you know? Do you really think that, if I know that name. That you have a chance?" Ash shrugged and the Lupo he had in his hand was hissing at him.

"S-stand down..." Kal'tsit almost had a heart attack from him calling her that earlier and thought it was true. If he did know it, he would snap them like twigs. As shown with her harmacist companion Mon3tr.

"We will talk after this." She glared at him and he shook his head. "No. I can feel Ling and Dusk already. They're almost going to breach the space. Maybe next time, Kal'tsit."

"Dr. Kal'tsit, what was with your reaction from earlier?" Blaze asked with concern and Kal'tsit sighed.

"Sorry Blaze, nobody can know that." Kal'tsit put the curtain on the issue and they slowly started to calm down.

After that debacle though, they separated ways. Especially because Kal'tsit was getting paranoid around Ash.

They fought again and reached the subplate of Lungmen. "Frostnova! We don't have to fight! Join Rhodes island!" Amiya called out to the other bunny girl.

"Yelena... What happened to you?" Ash furrowed his brows immediately and saw that she was at the terminal stage of oripathy.

He started walking up to her and she raised her hand. "Don't move any closer." She coughed violently.

"Yelena... Calm down, Alina wouldn't want this." He frowned and she was surprised. "Why do you know that name!?"

She fired a beam of her arts next to him and the building they were in started to screech from its integrity getting compromised.

"Buldrokkas'tee would want you to live and be happy Yelena." He raised his hand and the temperature around her increased.

"Shut up! What do you know about me and my dad!?" She fired arts directly at him. "Ash!" Amiya was about to protect him, but he snapped his fingers and all their arts disappeared into wisps of energy.

"Why do I know? Hah, of course I would know. You would tell me stories about how Patriot saved you from the mines." Ash walked even closer to her.

"I'm warning you! Don't come any closer! Who the hell are you? How do you know that?" Yelena yelled in confusion.

"That they arrived in the nick of time. When you awakened your arts. And when he hugged you, even when the cold would give him partial necrosis on his unarmored parts." Ash arrived in front of her and hugged her tightly.

The originium on her body started to fall down and she felt something. Something that she has forgotten already, warmth.

"Silly bunny girl you. Why are you so obstinate? Alina would definitely scold you later." He patted her head and rubbed her ears.

She just stared at him in shock and Yelena squinted her eyes. Beginning to cry.

"Alina... Alina has been dead for years now." Yelena gripped his shirt tightly and began to wail.

He went wide eyed. "Alina's dead?" He then glared in front of him and thought that time hasn't been kind to them in this place.

"Talulah has gone mad, dad's days are numbered. Half of his body already originium. What are we even fighting for now?" Yelena lost strength on her legs and he caught her.

"Shhh, calm down. Have a candy, you love them right? The disgusting spicy ones that you used to make with Alina and Talulah..." He manipulated matter and turned it into one of the candies she loved.

He popped it into her mouth and she was still crying. "Un, just like how we made it..." Yelena noticed that it truly was bad.

She used to eat them all the time because that's the only way she could feel warmth. Whenever she ate or drank something hot, her insides would burn.

"Relax for now. Relax, I'm here. Nothing's gonna go wrong." He rubbed her ears and she nodded like a lost child. Ash carried her and then she fell asleep.

He looked towards the people behind him that was in shock. "Y-you're from Reunion." Blaze frowned and he shook his head.

"Not really, but I think we have a bone to pick. Talulah's in Chernobog, Kaschey. Don't think that the past will be the same here." He squinted his eyes and his energy skyrocketed.

Several blue refined originite prime bracelets around his arms, legs, and torso shattered. Containing his awesome might.

"Ch'en let's go. You want to know what happened to Talulah right?" He took out a stim and injected it into Yelena. Ash then provided the necessary nutrients and elements needed by her body to bring it into its peak.

He nodded in satisfaction and she will wake up when they arrive at Talulah's position. "Yes!" Ch'en nodded and wanted to confront her sister.

Ash raised his hand and Ch'en floated right next to him. They then flew outside and was in a direct path to Chernobog.
