Soul Of Searing Steel Chapter 143: The Dusty Plains
Chapter 141
Different types of scenes could be seen presented to the warrior .
There were scenes such as a large number of animals running through the plains, large schools of marine life form swimming within the vast ocean . Beneath the cold glacier lies a great sea vortex where large special living being resided within the depths of this abyss .
All the different sceneries flashed in Joshua's mind . Those included numerous living moments and the extinction of different species . The terrain changed over time, where great mountains changed into deep valleys, rivers turned to deserts . The time of this world pa.s.sed in the speed of light, changing its form rapidly .
Within all these sceneries, humanoid form living beings evolved most of the time .
These humanoid beings hunted for food and grew crops to sustain their lives . These beings gathered as a group, forming towns and cities . Their evolution progressed toward language and culture . With all these evolutions, it had created a form of plenty of activities that kept on changing the world .
Joshua noticed these humanoid races started from the wilderness and slowly walked into civilization . Through this path of evolution, it had created their path towards s.p.a.ce .
The large magic ship carried forth a form of endless energy, traversing different worlds and setting up equal trades with different races . It was a wonderful moment for the civilization . However, all good things come to an end .
Joshua witnessed the whole process, where the seeds of Chaos spread into the dimensional s.p.a.ce . This had drastically changed the fate of the world, where endless chaos beings were brought forth to this world, causing destruction to both their civilization and technology . With their technology being robbed from them, the humanoids were powerless against these creatures and slowly withered away with doomsday awaiting .
This was precisely what Joshua saw in the final scene .
A strong gust blew over the plains . The greenery within the lands danced with the rhythm of the wind . Sounds of metal crashing with each other could be heard . Numerous warriors with weirdly designed weapons on hand together with magic steel armor formed a complete army gathered within the plains .
There was a floating ship in the sky, casting a huge shadow upon the warrior beneath it . The magical light from the armor flowed through the runes upon it, generating an unbelievable radiance .
Facing them were a horde of terrifying creatures .
Through the pact formed with the Divine Armament, Joshua could feel a tremble deep within his Divine Armament's soul . All the scenes and illusion he had been witnessing caused his weapon to be surprised . The weapon in the warrior's hand was the origin of all Divine Armaments .
The things that they were facing were the Aragami horde .
This particular scene was much slower as compared to the ones before . The details were more in-depth, and the moments of this scene were getting much clearer as time pa.s.sed . At first, Joshua could only see and hear the cutscenes vaguely . At this moment, he could even smell the scents of steel and blood mixed on the plains .

The humans had successfully gathered . The Aragami were prepared as well . With the leadership of a human, they initiated the charge against the Aragami . The hurdles that these warriors faced were not simple tasks . The Aragami were everywhere, ranging from the open land to the vast sky .
Sounds of crystal and steel colliding, the echoes of battle rang through the plains . The aura of death released by the Aragami condensed into dark smoke covered the land from the sunlight, and formed an endless battlefield of darkness . Together with the advancement of the floating ship, the battle had caused the plains to be dyed in red, lands were burned and blood was spilled .
It was a disastrous slaughter with both sides not backing off a single step . Numerous steel floating ships were sent down to earth from vigorous attacks . Before they landed on the ground, they formed into huge b.a.l.l.s of flame and dived towards the hordes of Aragami, turning everything in their path to dust .
Aragami do not have hearts to begin with . The warriors did not hesitate to slay all the enemies within their path using their courage and will . Magic was useless against these Aragami, thus only physical attack could deal significant damage to them . For this civilization which walked the path of magic without enhancing their Combat Aura or weapons, they had a big disadvantage against the Aragami . They do not have the knowledge to properly wield swords against their enemy . Despite that, they still tried their best to swing their blades, slaying down as many enemies as they could .
The slaughter slowly reached its final moment where there was only a single group of knights left on the battlefield .
The flag he carried were torn and filled with blood, yet it still danced gracefully with the breeze . The knight had most of its armor damage and his weapon had cracks all over it . The sky now completely sank into the depth of darkness without a single ray of light visible . The knight was now standing against a monster as huge as a mountain .
Razor sharp limbs rapidly quivered around the armor surrounding the large monster . Numerous Aragami which were wounded but not dead fused together into this gigantic Aragami . On top of its body were thousands and millions of compound eyes moving around that huge body, releasing beams of death . Numerous trunks with barbs could be seen wiggling around, spitting out acidic fluid at the same time . It was an indescribable monster . It was pure madness itself which you may think that the monsters you have seen in your bad dreams might just be cute as compared to the huge Aragami .
However, the remaining warriors never showed any fear on their faces . However, the remaining warriors never showed any fear on their faces .
They held onto their broken blades, raising their war flag and faced their demise . They may be at death's door, yet they did not back off and made their final effort .
"Charge!"
The last command could be heard . Following it was a group of knights taking on a suicidal attack against the final boss .
It was their last attempt, their last effort, their last struggle .
That was the final moment of that particular cutscene .
The scenes continued to play .
There was no miracle at that moment, their last effort resulted in nothing . The large creature devoured every corpse that laid on the field . Dark mist spread and engulfed the world . Sunlight slowly became history with the weather getting colder as time pa.s.sed . Plants no longer have the capability to grow, wild beasts no longer had anything to feed on . Food supply diminished, the forest withered . No clouds, no rain; only complete silence within the world which lacked life . With this enormous force of darkness devouring everything in its path, living only a world of famine, a world where life was gone .
The flame was extinguished .
The civilization which once traveled through the vast s.p.a.ce could not fight against this power of darkness . The remaining resistance could only hide, defending themselves within a mountain-sized fortress, surviving in this lifeless world . On the other side, a monster with a horn on its forehead with huge skeleton wings on its back, numerous compound eyes, and tentacle-like limbs traversed the dark sky . Surrounding its body was sparks of lightning, signifying that it was the best and the master of this world .

Joshua was completely immersed in this scene . He looked at the huge monster with a terrifying aura flying through the dead sky . Instinctively, his body was ready for combat . His Combat Aura combusted into flames, turning into crimson red and later on jet-black aura .
His act of instinct suddenly triggered something .
The Pool of Souls… the Soul of Fire?
An unknown sound could be heard, causing an unexpected change .
The scene in front of Joshua cracked and started to shatter .
Following that, a gray-colored power of steel rushed out from the swirl, forming a very dense fog, covering everyone within the room .
No one would allow unknown matter or activity approach them . Joshua, Moreila, and even Clyre would not do so . However, things happened just too fast for them to react and they could not escape being engulfed .
