Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

"I am superior to all of you? Bow to me?" Abbadon repeated after Silver in an ice cold tone. "How dare a fallen angel mutter such filth in the presence of my mistress?

"You\'ve fallen from grace, haven\'t you? You\'re a disgrace to your own kind as much as you\'re a disgrace to yourself. 

"I may as well be doing the worlds a favour by getting rid of you!" With that, Abbadon retracted his aura into his body as a serious and deadly expression painted his face.

Seeing that, Raven teleported away while at the same time ordering her army to retreat and watch from a safe distance. \'I can easily tell that Silver is stronger than Abbadon, but I doubt that will stop him from showing his best in front of me.

\'I will give him a few minutes of solo combat before giving him a hand, let this be a lesson for him. There\'s always someone stronger...\'

Watching intently as Abbadon almost erased his presence by consuming all of his mana, Raven suddenly noticed a change in Abbadon\'s form.

\'Ho~ Kay, what is he doing?\' she asked.

\'Err, here, let me show you…\' saying that, a couple of system notifications flashed in Raven\'s mind.

[Abbadon has used his Unique Skill: True Form Unleashed, thus granting himself power over daemon magic, also known as curse magic.

[As a result, Abbadon\'s magic skill Mana Manipulation has been converted into Curse Manipulation.]

\'Oh, well that\'s new…\' Raven thought to Kayla while observing closely. 

Not a second after, Abbadon\'s body turned all black as his physical body started turning into what seemed to be a terrifying ghostly presence of dark, or rather, curse energy. 

Looking at his rank, Raven widened her eyes at what she saw. \'No way… he has just gone up by a whole Star! He\'s ranked as Three Stars now…\'

Gritting her teeth, Raven understood that this may cause a terrible pressure on Gaia\'s body.

\'Abbadon, end this quickly, I don\'t want your aura to corrode the planet and hurt our allies,\' Raven said through their mind link while checking on Gaia who seemed to be fine for now.

\'Yes, O\' kind mistress,\' Abbadon said sincerely.

Raven sighed in relief seeing that he had responded rather quickly which indicated that he was still in control of his senses and was still loyal to her.

\'Maeve, Aamon, Levi, and Bel,\' Raven called through her mind link. \'Your responsibility is to protect your own subordinates, make sure none of them gets hurt. Feel free to observe from afar or completely retreat if you have to.\'

\'Yes, mistress!\' all said simultaneously. They appreciated that she didn\'t want any of them to get hurt, but at the same time, they wanted to see what Abbadon, their senior, was capable of.

"HAHAHA!! That\'s more like it!!" Silver laughed like a maniac. "Show me your strength! Make this dull job just a tiny bit interesting!!" 

Saying that, Silver released his aura while beating his black wings behind him, prompting the fallen feathers to form rings around him. Energy radiated out of him menacingly.

Looking up in his direction, Raven realized that both Silver and Abbadon were radiating with similar amounts of power. The only difference being that Silver\'s kept increasing with each passing second.

Not wanting to waste more of his mistress\'s precious time or risk damaging the planet, Abbadon snapped his fingers, activating his three ultra skills, one by one.

Domain of the Sinners, Baneful Executioner, and Sin of Hatred.

Teleporting behind Silver, he set up his anti-magic area while at the same time applying his skills: Eyes of the Sinner and Blood Seal.

Silver found it hard to move for just an instance, however, that was more than enough for Abbadon who followed that with the activation of Mind Control, Chaos Unleashed, and Temptation for Hatred.

His goal was to damage Silver\'s mind as much as possible since this was the most effective weapon against angels, especially with his skills that used the might of curses instead of normal mana.

Curses were the foundations of the ancient demon magic, an art that not many know of, and in this new age only daemons were capable of using it.

Mind control and Temptation for Hatred worked hand in hand in urging the target to develop feelings of hatred towards the caster. Once that condition has been met, the caster would gain a massive advantage by gaining the ability to anticipate and counter every move performed by the target. 

Of course this effect ought to vary in strength in response to changes in power difference between the caster and their opponents.

Chaos Unleashed enabled Abbadon to unleash the power of chaos and strengthen himself even more.

Applying his skill: Execution at the moment Silver was still frozen, Abbadon was able to siphon a large portion of his life-force and power, thus empowering himself beyond what\'s usually possible.

Lastly, he activated his skills: All to Ashes, Void Particles, and Corrosive Energy. Against normal opponents, All to Ashes would have simply been their end, as Abbadon has once demonstrated against the demonic titans that have attacked the Human Plane a while back. 

But against someone as powerful as Silver, it wasn\'t guaranteed to generate such an effect. 

That\'s why he chose to combine it with his Corrosive Energy, Void Particles and Curse Manipulation. Smiling, Abbadon condensed this energy that was radiating with immense power, and created two large sets of claws that replaced his normal hands.

The claws matched his ghostly figure that made him look like a terrifying monster that is only seen in nightmares. 

The moment Silver was aware of his surroundings again, he realised that a large portion of his body was already gone.

The nightmarish claws were able to instantly corrode anything they touched and instantly banish it into the depth of the bottomless void. 

Regenerating his body instantly, Silver flickered away. \'It hurts!!\' he screamed in his mind. \'How could this be?!! I\'m supposed to be a powerful angel and devils should have no might against me!

\'How could this filthy creature lay a hand on me? How could he cause me pain?!\'
