Mantle of the Gods [LitRPG / Slow Burn / FTB Harem]

Ether charged at them.

They weren't all the way formed, but there were enough of them that Rix has already chopped up two of them.

Not to be outdone, Whisper had joined in and was cutting them down too. There was no way they were going to get all of them, but we'd last longer.

I ran over to Mive with Justia. She reached out her hand to touch him and there was an electric spark that shocked her.

"Ouch!" Justia pulled her hand back. "I don't think it likes me."

I touched his chest, but nothing happened to me. "Try it again?"

Justia reached out her hand and didn't get it as close before she got shocked again.

"OW! I don't think this is going to do anything!" Justia stuck her finger in her mouth.

"We have to do something." I turned around. Some of the demons had finished forming and were fighting back. Rix was having the time of her life, cackling with glee as she shredded demon after demon. Justia had once asked me how Vena would react when I was the authority to rebel against, but in that moment, I wondered what Rix would do when there were no more enemies to kill. It wasn't like that time was going to come in the next fifty years. But it was something I was going to have to think about. I knew I could find an alternative for her, but thinking about it now was just distracting me from the present problem.

I touched Mive's chest with my right hand and held out my left. "Let's try this."

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

Justia stared at my hand like it was a snake. "That much electricity running through you…"

"We've got to try something!" I reach out my open hand towards her. "We don't have much time!"

The demon smoke was coming in even faster. It wouldn't be long until they were simply overwhelmed.

Justia grabbed my hand and I felt POWER run through my body, but it didn't shock her at least.

"Now what?" Just glanced back at the fighting.

"I don't know, try to tell it to close."

"Close! Shut Down! Exit! Disappear!" Justia shook her head. "It's not working! I can feel something, but I have no idea what to do with it."

I looked at Mive and tried to see what they'd done to him. The bindings that were holding him in place were so dark of a purple that they looked almost black, but I could feel them pulsing. There was power in them. Power that was holding him in a mental prison.

"Trent's going to kill me…"

"What?" Justia looked at me, "Did you figure it out?"

I shook my head. "No, but I think I might be able to ask him how to do it."

Justia looked at the hanging God. "You're going to go into his mind?"

I nodded. "Ish. We're already sort of in his mind, so this would be like going through another door? I don't know. I just know that I've been able to hijack mental spells like this before." I took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "You don't have to come with me…"

"I think I do." Justia squeezed my hand tighter. "You need him to tell me how to close this."

She had a point and while I was glad that I was going to have the company, I hoped Mive would be understanding.

"Alright, I'm going to do this." I looked over at the fight and they were getting driven back. It wouldn't take long for one of them to falter, then they'd all fall. I had to do this fast.

SIPHON!
