Chapter 550: War (IV) (2/2)
Followed by this declaration was a figure flying in the air. It was a guy with a Mohican hairstyle, his face exuded cold indifference as the beautiful plated gold wings flapped behind him. He was wearing the same uniform as the War Gods but what makes him different is that, his legs were transformed into sharp claws resembling that of an eagle's.
This person was none other than the 'King Roc War God - Levi Cross'.
The projectiles just now were actually his feather. Levi didn't have any hopes of hurting the devil with this, he just wanted to scare away the devil for Paolo, and he succeeded.
The Devil evaded the projectiles, disappearing from their trajectory and reappearing somewhere else on the field. They stared at Levi and said:
”First a Minotaur and now a Harpy?.” They said with a pondering expression. ”I don't understand your words earlier but from what I can see, I assume that this Ugly Minotaur is your mate.”
”If that's the case, then color me amused. I wonder what sort of mutations will occur to your hatchlings. A Minotaur with wings and a lower body of a Harpy? Hmm, a curious and rather confusing creature, but it has potential.”
”What will be of our children is none of your business. And yours is the most confusing existence!” Levi retorted with a snort. He then sent a voice transmission to Paolo asking: 'Are you good? Hurt anywhere?'
'I'm good, thanks Babe.' Paolo replied, 'If we come back alive from this, I'll give you a month long fucking.'
'Shush, you rogue! Now's not the time for that!' Levi admonished before glaring at the Devil's direction.
”Well, then...” Levi said as he stared at devil. ”What brings you to Asphodel, Lust?”
Everyone shivered as soon as Levi revealed the name of the devil. Nobody was truly surprised, after all not just any devil will have this kind of aura. They already had an idea that this one should be one of the strong ones. Still, hearing Levi confirm that they were indeed facing against one of the 'Seven Deadly Sins - Sin of Lust' didn't prevent them from shivering.
”Oh? You know of me, yet still had the gall to talk back. A very commendable attitude for an insect, yet it doesn't change the fact that I could crush your pitiful existence with a flick of my finger.” Lust said indifferently.
”You think too highly of yourself.” Levi snorted. ”I could still remember how you fled like a frightened puppy back when you along with your brothers tried to swallow Asphodel. Seeing how miserable you were back then, even the Grand Elder took pity on you and left you alive. But now, just because you got a little taller and your wings got a little wider, you start flapping yours gums and throwing your weight everywhere. Hmph! What a joke.”
Levi's sharp words brought a rather refreshing feeling for his comrades and caused Lust's face to twist in fury. The towering black mist filled with evil intent rose up from his body, signifying that he's about to attack anytime soon. Yet just like before, it disappeared promptly as if it never existed in the first place and Lust's face was back to showing an indifferent look.
”I see. So you were amongst the people who were present back then. I don't have any recollections of you though.”
”I'd be surprised if you did.” Levi snorted. ”You weren't even on the frontlines! You just stared as 'Gluttony', 'Envy', and 'Wrath' fought against our forces. If 'Envy' is here, she'd probably remember me, after all I was the one who scratched her ugly-ass face.”
”You arrogant fly!!!” Lust screeched sharply as they were thoroughly provoked by Levi's words.
But instead of being scared, Levi merely snorted and wasn't even fazed with Lust's outburst. But that doesn't mean that he's underestimating the enemy, it's the complete opposite in fact.
*Weng!!*
Everybody were extremely alarmed as they suddenly felt intense fluctuation coming-off of the portal to the 12th floor. They all looked over there and saw someone standing on the air with his back against them.
Lust face was filled with stupefaction, he stared dumbly at the glowing rune that has the 'Seal' in it, covering the entrance to the 12th floor.
”WHO ARE YOU!!!!” Lust roared at the top of their lungs.
The guy flinched and looked back at them. He then looked towards his left and right, pointing at himself he innocently asked:
”Me!? Oh, Psh. Don't mind me, I'm just a nobody. You guys continue talking, don't let me disturb you 'kay?”
