《Ascension of the Nephilim 》Chapter 159: Before the War of Orcs and Human
Advertisement
Through the Temple's ability, Kyros could see the trio moving in.
"Did dad manage to ally with a Lizard Champion? And what's with those wounds?" Kyros frowned.
"Your family seemed to have gotten busy. I wonder how they managed to ally with a Lizard Champion? The fact that they got the Champion to move beyond the Golem City is already amazing! Your dad and Uncle look to be in no condition to fight, yet this Champion is rushing in and is willingly bringing them in!"
As the trio moved closer, Kyros could hear the group's discussion as they reached the area of the Temple.
"Hm? I can hear them now. Interesting. I can hear all conversations within the area of the Temple when it leveled up!" Kyros was amazed. He could hear his father talking with his uncle and the lizard, and they were immersed in a deep discussion.
"I wonder what they are talking about?" As he had nothing else to do, Kyros decided to eavesdrop.
"So... Let me get this straight..." The Lizard Champion spoke seriously.
"Lizard, is a Common Noun. But if I say Lizard Champion, it's a Proper noun?"
"Yes. Because the Lizard Champion is a proper title, right? Well, technically, Lizard is a Singular Noun." Aron added.
"A Singular Noun?" The Lizard Champion frowned.
"Singular?" Branze gave Aron an annoyed look.
"Yeah. He's talking about one lizard, right?"
"Yes. But don't confuse him. Listen, Champion. The word 'lizard' is actually a Common Singular Concrete Noun."
"Wow. A single word can have multiple classifications? But... but I thought Proper Nouns refers to name and title. So why can't Lizard be a Proper noun? Would Lizard be a Common Singular Concrete Proper Noun?"
"No! It cannot be a Proper Noun! Because it's not a name!"
"But lizard is a name! My name is Lizard!"
".... Your name... Is Lizard?" Branze and Aron somehow manage to chorus at the same time, with the same tone.

"Yes. I know about a hundred Lizards who is named Lizard."
Aron was scratching his head.
"This might be another one of those cultural things. You see, to us humans, we don't call other people 'man' or 'human'. That's not a name we give our children."
"So there are no humans with the name 'Man' or 'Human'?"
"..." Branze couldn't answer.
"I mean... statistically... there are people with those as their first name or family name..." Aron turned to Branze.
"So... why can't it be a Proper noun?" The Lizard Champion asked.
Calaminus was perking up as he heard this discussion.
"Oh! I know! I know! Kyros, call your dad. I can explain the confusion! It's a cultural problem and cannot be resolved by trying to educate the lizard champion with the grammar rules of our language!"
"Like hell, I'm entering that conversation! Besides, that rule only applies to this world. I feel that Lizard Champion isn't a Proper Noun, and I know that's wrong in this world!" Kyros argued.
"Yeah. I guess mixing my other incarnation confuses you of the rules my incarnation uses and those rules. Hrm... Frankly, even I'm not sure. Oh well. I'm sure the Author expects some of the readers to correct him, and he'll retcon the Proper Noun thing in the future chapters. I mean, you can't expect the Author to brush up on the eight kinds of nouns when he's already swamped writing three novels, can you? He's not even a native English speaker! Anyway, I'm wondering what the Blood Calamity is doing now?"
"Draining her energy, of course. The fear I instilled on her on my numerous surprise attacks will push her to the limits of cautiousness." Kyros chuckled.
"That's wishful thinking, though. She IS the Charmed Fallen. You think Deception will work on her?"
"I'm confident it did. Deception will work because I harmed her several times. Those lies are backed up with history. She will use her powers, and the more energy she wastes, the more time we buy for Airom Logat. This is Grugnyr's challenge. I can see his Path in Fate. He has to develop his Path of Molding in this trip."

"He would be an idiot if he failed. You already listed the numerous orc brigades you found that the Blood Calamity killed. The Coven had already informed Grugnyr of the details of their attack. Once the orc leaders see the truth of Grugnyr's claims, they will surely tighten up security in this place!"
"I just hope it buys me enough time."
"Time for what?"
"The chaos in the Lowlands that the war between the orcs and humans is something that I must take part in. But a more important matter is to finish the necessary problems in this Nephilim Sealing Mountain and find Greater God Daradiel. I have a feeling that Destiny will lead the Blood Calamity to find this God."
"So that's why you're very serious in delaying the Blood Calamity! I'm sure it will work. It'll be tough for Destiny to give the Blood Calamity any advantage in this situation."
Back in Airom Logat...
The Blood Calamity continued to maintain the mist that guarded her.
She watched with caution and then realized that Kyros might have used this chance to escape!
She was about to rush, but then, a cold chill ran up her spine as she envisioned an invisible slash that would sever her head off.
"No sounds... No magic movements... This could mean he is still standing perfectly still! But if I launch an attack and he's not standing there... He might attack me when I am distracted!" The Blood Calamity cursed.
Her blood mist began to move towards that area where Kyros was standing. But as she was doing that, she kept a wary eye on the areas behind her and had her shield up.
The blood mist reached the area, and the Blood Calamity confirmed that there was nothing there.
"You are mocking me!" She cursed and began to think.
"He cannot move while in his cloaked form. I raised my shield. He must have used that chain of his to fly elsewhere and is secretly hiding somewhere where he knows I won't check... but where would it be..."
The more she thought, the more she hated her situation. She prided herself in being able to prepare a trap where she was confident in landing the checkmate. But now, she was in a position that any action would put her into that dreaded 'check' status.
Heeding the warning of Kyros, the Coven immediately began to retreat.
Diana took various weapons, swords, and bows that were in the outpost. Due to the number of raids, weapons were abundant.
"Are you sure you can carry all that?" Diana asked Mechiel.
"I'm still a vampire, lady Diana."
"Alright."
"Um... I just want to ask... So your son, Lord Kyros, defeated the Blood Calamity?"
"No. He said he just managed to hurt her and severely weakened her. He told us to flee while he buys us more time." Diana explained.
Scarlet, Avary, and Gregory quietly began to pick up the weapons. The moment they received Kyros's warning, they have been very careful and secretly relayed the information to Diana.
Diana told them to keep it a secret to Mechiel.
"Is Lady Diana really serious?" Scarlet asked the three through their link. The three of them had their own chat group. Kyros promised that whatever chat groups they create, he would not spy or listen on them like some Big Brother watching everything they do or say.
"Scarlet, we can't trust anyone, especially since it concerns Lord Kyros. Lady Diana is right in assuming that this girl is still the Blood Calamity. This is why Lady Diana lied to her and didn't tell her that Lord Kyros has already teleported back to the Temple." Avary answered.
"But isn't this too much? Lady Diana plans to have Mechiel fight in a very dangerous fight where she could die!" Gregory exclaimed.
