Chapter 887: The Disaster Arc V [The END]
"What did happen?" He looked at the sky, "I see, it's her." He growled with his burning black. "Red Drakaina."
His true body moved reaching toward Zaleria's soul that flew back toward the heavens. "You'll not escape."
As Nyar's claws and tentacles extended through the void, trying to catch Zaleria's soul, she stopped moving and her eyes slowly opened.
"I'm dead…" She said, and Nyar gasped. He never heard of this world's creatures being aware of their soul right after death. They usually only realize they are dead when their soul reaches heaven or hell, except for the undead and vampires. She is neither of those two, she shouldn't be able to move or speak.
BOOOM! Zaleria's soul burst into a storm of fire expanding rapidly and pushing Nyar's claws away. From her sister being a necromancer and a dracolich to the time she spends with Cain and the other divines interacting with souls in multiple dimensions, as a mortal, Zaleria quickly becomes aware of her own soul. Like being a lucid dream, her consciousness didn't disappear upon death.
Cain held his head as it started throbbing, "I thought it was only Sofia who had the problem of sucking my magic. But now Zaleria as well, I guess they are related." Unlike Sofia, Zaleria wasn't just sucking Cain's magic, she was gulping it down, like a fire catching on a gasoline tank.
The flames expanded and formed a massive draconic body of pure fire, shining light on Nyar's true body. "I'm the witch who taught Cain witchcraft. Even as a mere soul, I'll still fight back."
[GOOD WORDS] A deep voice boomed out of the void, and Nyar flinched. "You bastard, you're awake?!"
[TAKE THIS. TEACH IT TO YOUR MOTHER LATER, SO I CAN GET IT BACK] A massive white star appeared out of nothing, gently floating down toward Zaleria's face.
The star then compressed into a tiny bead.
[Holy Origin White Nova] [I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO CHARGE IT, BUT CAIN SHOULD. SUCK HIM DRY]
{Zaleria! That spell is from AO, take it.} Cain sent her a message. {You might be able to finish Nyar off with it.}
Zaleria opened her jaw and swallowed the [Ho-White Nova] Burning it deeper into her draconic core and overcharging it with all the divine magic she could pull out of Cain.
Several layers of magic started forming above Nyar's true body as he tried to get ready to block the coming blast. If it was something started by AO, it's something he should fear.
Zaleria's body burned hotter and hotter as her chest and stomach expanded with lightning flashing from her wings to her jaw.
[Super Nova]
With a roar, Zaleria unleashed the strongest dragon breath she had, a stream of most of Cain's divine power charged into a single point.
The Breath cracked Nyar's barrier, hitting him straight in the face and exploding into world world-sized explosion.
Nyar who stood before Cain and Kayden shattered into pieces and disappeared, and Zaleria's soul fell back into Cain's heaven, her head spinning after unleashing so much power at once.
"Is he dead?" Kayden asked as he looked at Cain.
Cain closed his eyes and looked across the whole world, "The battles access the plans of existence is coming to an end as most of the abominations are retreating or dying. I doubt Nyar is dead, but this is our win for now. It'll be several decades before he could attack again." Cain smiled, but he started feeling a bit dizzy, Zaleria sucked him dry.
Kayden caught him. "You okay?"
"A bit lightheaded, I'm out of energy for now." He smiled.
"Your father was right, you're really scrawny." Kayden smiled patting Cain's head. "So, why did you turn into a puppy?"
Cain blinked twice, "I didn't. I'm lacking divine magic and mana so you're seeing me as being far weaker. It's your madness man," He sighed.
"Really." Kayden lifted his sword, "Then let's fight. I can beat you now."
"No, we won't."
Kayden patted Cain's head, "Here you go, good boy! Good boy! Let's head back." He flew away with him.
When the ash settled, all the planes of existence suffered severe damage from the short war and even the mortal world ended up destroyed by Sofia's rampage and then Zaleria's kick. Most living beings have ended up in heaven or hell, and a vast majority of souls are still stuck in Kur, Ereshkigal's domain.
This had left the whole world in shambles and the state unfit to harbor life anywhere if the gods weren't directly present to protect mortals.
Kayden landed with Cain in hell, looking around as everything around them cracked and shattered. "This place isn't stable?" He looked with a strange glare.
"Said the one who cut hell in half!" Cain growled, lifting his hand. "I can fix it, but it's a temporary measure." He growled.
The shaking stopped.
Seconds later, Tiamat landed beside them and shifted into her humanoid form. "Cain! Are you all right? I can barely sense any divine magic from you."
Kayden looked at her. "Who's this wrinkly face pug? She looks like Sofia, but isn't she."
"You can tell?" Cain stared at him with a confused face.
"Who are you calling wrinkly face? And a pug?!" Tiamat growled.
It was then that Cain realized, Kayden's power had grown bigger once again. Letting everything loose fighting Nyar and slashing hell. Kayden had become far stronger than most gods, albeit still weaker than him at full power.
"Put me down, I can walk." Cain jumped out of Kayden's grin and took a deep breath. "Hell air is bad, but still better than nothing."
"I'll teleport you both to Cain's heaven. Rest, we can discuss the details later." Tiamat glared at them.
Kayden nodded, "Indeed. It's dangerous for Cain to be roaming around in his state. Let's wait for a few days before making a move."
"I can still fight," Cain growled at him.
"If you're a puppy in my eyes. Then forget surviving an attack from a powerful enemy." Kayden was right. In his state, Cain would find it hard to stand against someone like Vorvadoss, if such a creature appeared out of nowhere.
"The first thing to do after resting is fixing the world." Cain looked at the sky. "Due to the extensive damage, it's crumbling into ash and most life in it has faded."
"That'll be a lot of work." Kayden stared at him. "Is it even possible?"
"I can restore the world, but I'm not sure. I don't have AO's full power, It's still been just a few hours after I became a true overgod."
They all went back to Cain's heaven, finding it crowded with people, animals, and monsters. All stood around, confused about what to do next. Angels flew everywhere trying to get the souls homes and land to live in, while also providing them with everything they needed for the time being.
"Nyar really stroke where it hurts. Starting a fight in the mortal world. Did he intend for the war to destroy the world?" Cain looked around as He flew with Tiamat and Kayden toward his mansion.
"Maybe it's a plan for him to attack you while you're weakened from fixing the world?" Kayden pointed out.
"That's probably the case. He's a chaotic primal evil, but I doubt even he expected that attack from Zaleria. Even though it was conjured by AO and powered by me." Zaleria was just a conduit for attack.
"What attack?" As expected, Kayden didn't know that Zaleria blasted the living hell out of Nyar's true body.
When Cain explained it to him, he growled. "That witch, she always hits like a bison."
"Cain!" Zaleria who had just fallen to heaven after dying saw Arad and flew to him. "It seems that I have died." She giggled.
"Death is never the end." Cain smiled, "Let's go back home."
"I should go as well. You're safe here. Send me to Kali." Kayden looked at them, and Tiamat sent him back to the abyss.
Landing back in his mansion, Cain sighed as he felt it empty. Everyone except the maids was out cleaning after the abomination's sudden invasion. They'll be back soon, but for now, it's only him and Zaleria. Even Tiamat had gone back to hell to help it stabilize.
"It's the end for now." Cain dropped on the couch, almost melting on it. His magic was rapidly charging at levels unknown to anyone else, each second his divine core filled with more divine mana than what even Amaterasu had.
"Lilia, I'm tired." He said and she jumped out of him, "What are you saying? I'm tired too." Since mixing, the two of them shared the same pool of mana.
"I'm here as well." Morena also walked out of him. Her eyes turned toward Zaleria. "You finally died."
"You happy?"
"No, I was just thinking how it took a world-ending abomination to get you killed." Morena giggled, sitting beside her. "I'm sure you're tired as well. Rest, I'm sure Lilia can make you a new body to revive."
"I can, but I won't." Lilia looked at them with a smile.
"Why?" Cain asked.
"It'll be better for her to make a body out of fire and magic. She's a witch, isn't she?" Lilia then looked up, "But, this is the end of the struggle. I saw the damage Nyar's true body had taken, he won't get up for several decades at least, if not more. We have a long time to rest and build our strength back."
****
Out in the void, a massive mass of energy concentrated around Nyar's body as he flew deeper into the nothingness of the void. "I shall get my revenge. Take this as a curse for now. Fuck you dragons, kill those who you love"

This marks the end of [My Enchanting System] main story. I'll release a few side stories to follow up on what happened when I can. The format will be a mass release of at least 10-30 chapters at once.
For those who want more, you can check AO's reincarnation in [The Dragon's Harem] The creator Arad Orion reincarnated in the mortal world after Cain fixed it and is growing rapidly in power. Albeit, he doesn't know what he really is, or what the cursed witch he got really is.
