Chapter 87 Dark Barrier



All of them surrounding the monster had been untouched but Zavier had ended up being swallowed. As if that wasn\'t enough, the monster came to a complete halt after swallowing him. It was like the catastrophic turn of events that were happening were all meant to bring misfortune only for Zavier.

All the girls hoped for Zavier to survive this ordeal as well and go back together with them. Only the last hurdle remained, the humanoid monster.

As soon as Zavier was swallowed by the monster, he felt his skin being corroded by a sticky substance. He soon understood that the liquid might be a highly concentrated acid used by the body of the monster to digest all the rubbish that the monster ate. It was completely black in color like the color of his hair.

His skin was constantly being corroded by the liquid and he could feel the burning sensation all over his body. He felt the need to itch all over but he knew that once he tried to scratch, he might start bleeding a fountain of blood.

Therefore, he left that feeling in the background and tried to focus on the means to escape.

Zavier continued to move and escaped the sea of dense black liquid. Only here there was a black fog that had the same effect as that of the liquid albeit a little less in intensity.

Unlike before when he had encountered the black liquid, the effect of the fog could be controlled to some extent with the help of the Blood Blade skill that he had. It was at that moment that he had understood how useful of a skill the Blood blade was.

It was not only the best of the skills at offence; it was also equally good at defensive manoeuvres due to the excessive flexibility in its usage and the degree of freedom and imagination that it gave to its user.

Basically, the user was able to do anything that he was able to conjure up with the help of his blood.

Zavier had drawn up a curtain of blood fog around himself that didn\'t require much of an effort on his part and protected him at the same time.

The fog kept roiling and moving around him in a spiral motion and kept the dreadful black fog at bay that was looking for an opportunity to enter his proximity and take a bite out of him.

He moved around and came to a sight that he had seen previously when he had tried to peek into her body in an attempt to look for the trouble that had been hindering her from using magic.

He was currently in front of the same abyss that was like the gateway to the underworld. This was the place where had first seen the monster hidden inside Alissa.

Zavier knew that if there was a place where he could find Alissa, it had to be that bottomless abyss.

Previously when Zavier had peered at the abyss, there had been no light at all. It was all so pitch black that not a single speck of light could be seen in it. Zavier was sure of it.

But this time that he had taken a look at it, there was a tiny speck of light that was as prominent as the moon in the night sky.

Although it was very small, Zavier was sure that it was there. He immediately used his enhanced vision to make out what was emitting such a brilliant light in the middle of the abyss.

Upon a closer look, Zavier ascertained that the speck of light was the soul of Alissa who was currently busy crying while clutching her knees tightly.

She looked unbelievably weak and timid at the moment to Zavier who had been with her ever since he had come to this new world.

He had even seen her get bullied by the students younger than her but even then she had not looked so pitiful. She had always had a smile on her face and a happy go lucky attitude.

For some reason, when Zavier saw her looking like that, an intense pain assaulted his insides. He wanted to bash the walls around him but there were no walls in sight. All around him was only darkness in which he could hardly see his own hands let alone any territorial demarcation.

Zavier couldn\'t help but feel desperate when he saw the condition that Alissa was in. He had even forgotten that he too had been swallowed by a monster and was quite close to death with no exit in sight whatsoever out of the god forsaken abyssal darkness.

He shouted in the loudest voice he could muster and tried to get her attention

"ALISSAAA…ALISSAAAA…"

But she was too far away to even hear the echo of his voice. The abyss seemed to have the effect of dampening the voice as well.

Sound could not travel very far in the thick and potent darkness. Sound required a medium to travel but if the medium in question was the darkness in front of him, Zavier wondered if it was even possible. From what he had gathered the result was not very positive.

Either Alissa was too aggrieved to even hear his voice in this silence or his voice was unable to reach her. Even though both the outcomes were not in his favour, Zavier prayed that it was the former. That way there was still a chance that she will be able to hear him out.

Following that he kept calling out to her in the loudest voice that he could muster and kept reassuring her.

"ALISSAAAA….I\'M COMING…"

Alissa on the other hand seemed unaware of the new development as she kept her face hidden in her knees throughout and tears streamed down her face constantly. There was no way she would have stayed like that had she heard the voice of the person that she was longing to see.

Since Alissa was not able to hear his voice, Zavier could only get closer to her in order to attract her attention. His gut said that the only way to get out of the place was to get to Alissa who was the main source of the tragedy that had taken place. The monster had been inside her so she might have some means to control it that had been unknown to her up until that point.

Zavier started to move towards Alissa. Even if there was no way out, Zavier was not willing to let her shed tears in loneliness in a place like this. He vowed that he would send her out at the very least and ran in her direction.

As he continued to rush towards her, the resistance towards him started to increase. It was as if the world itself wanted to stop his advance but like a drill Zavier penetrated the resistance posed by the dark fog.

It had started to grow denser as he moved towards the centre where Alissa was. The increasing density lent strength to the fog and made it capable of even corroding his Blood Blade skill.

The blood around him that was protecting him from the corrosion had to be replenished with decreasing intervals as he moved towards Alissa. The fog was trying to prevent him from reaching Alissa at any cost but Zavier was determined as well.

Zavier could feel that his limit was approaching. At the point he had reached, he had to constantly reinforce the blood film around him to even think of moving forward. It was being eroded in real time leaving for no interval in between.

Zavier\'s breath had gotten heavy and he was practically panting. His bodily condition was also faltering as he was getting delirious due to blood loss but even then he didn\'t stop calling out to Alissa who was still his number one priority in this situation.

Zavier had come to understand the structure of the abyss as he traversed his way across it to Alissa. He hadn\'t noticed it earlier but the abyssal darkness in fact consisted of layers of darkness of varying strengths. The deeper one went the stronger the effect of erosion of the black fog.

With the diminishing effect of his bloody defence, Zavier found himself in direct contact with the fog as soon as there was a breach in his defence that he was unable to put back together.

The skin on his hands and his face began to turn blood red before being scorched away by the corrosive darkness. His body was being mutilated as if he was being skinned alive. The flesh beneath his skin was already visible and several black spots had appeared on it as if his flesh was about to be decomposed.

Zavier didn\'t pull back but kept going forward irrespective of the damage he was suffering. He had already died too many times. Once more was like scratching his back at the moment. At the very least he wanted to save Alissa before he moved to another one of his body.

The pangs of pain that he had to endure were enough to make an ordinary person unconscious or at the very least traumatized yet Zavier refused to back away from it.

He approached Alissa with faltering steps and a body afflicted with erosion and decomposition. The pain was evident on his face yet he refused to make a sound. He grit his teeth and eventually stood in the vicinity of Alissa.

He swayed his hand in front of him as if to confirm that what he was seeing was actually real.

There was some kind of dark barrier in front of him that was preventing him from moving forward.

He shouted at the top of his voice almost coughing up blood in the process since opening his mouth had given the dark fog an opportunity to assault the insides of his body. Pain shot throughout his body as the black fog eroded his insides but he refused to give in.

At a closer look, it seemed to be another layer of the Abyss that was holding Alissa at the moment.

The barrier was made up of an even denser black fog. It was practically a sea of darkness with that kind of density.

Zavier knew that a hell of pain awaited him once he tried to cross into the last layer. His already lacking defenses would be torn apart as soon as he clashed against the barrier.

Yet, the only thing in his mind was the fact that Alissa was in there. He was unwilling to turn back without her.

Alissa was at the bottom of the abyss and separating her from Zavier was the last barrier. Yet she was unable to hear his voice.

Zavier knew that the only option left to him at that point was to cross the barrier to approach her since nothing else worked.

Zavier took in a deep breath and raised his arm in order to judge the strength of the last layer in front of him.

As soon as his hand came into contact with the barrier he felt an overwhelming pain that even he had never felt before considering he had even died several times. This was practically the definition of a pain worse than death. He felt as if the sensitivity of his pain receptors had been heightened in this domain.

In fact, the nerves on his arms had been ruthlessly torn apart by the barrier which had led to the soul tearing pain he had experienced earlier.

Someone really didn\'t want him reaching Alissa, otherwise there wouldn\'t have been such a barrier separating her from the rest of the abyss.

This strengthened his resolve even further and he ventured into the world of blood, tears and soul crushing and spirit devolving pain as he came into contact with the barrier. But this time his whole body was pressed against the barrier in an attempt to break through the cursed thing.
