632 Perish on Defea (1/2)
”Another world?”
Aragón revealed a puzzled look.
”Aside from our world, there are also other worlds…” Mond nodded his head. ”It's the same as what the wandering poets sang. Heaven and Hell might exist!”
”So… this king—Dante—had the body of an Evil Demon, but its spirit was actually an angel?”
Aragón nodded his head.
”Everything was heard by our Sacred Coffin holders' ancestors from King Dante's isolated words and phrases…” Mond shook his head. ”It was said that before the king passed away, it had arranged everything, as though it would return again!”
”If it could really wake up, it should be now, right?”
Aragón looked at Sacred Coffin, but the sleeping Evil Demon was no different from a normal Demon Hunter.
”I don't know, it was, after all, a legend. Hence, we can only choose to wait.”
Mond slowly closed Sacred Coffin.
”Sacred Water is already enough, it can aid the frontline at any time…”
Aragón held Sacred Cup. ”Of course, we should solve the chaos in the headquarters and Sacred Mountain first!”
”The change in Sacred Mountain is due to an external force. After it disperses, there would naturally be a way to restore it… but we need time!”
Mond walked out of the main hall. ”It's time to calm the other Demon Hunters.”
Most of the high ranking Demon Hunters that were supposed to stand guard went out to attack. Those that remained were immature and inexperienced members. Regardless of whether it was in the aspect of their physical strength or their mind, they were lacking a lot.
The good news was that the two Sacred Weapon holders still had enough confidence to stabilize the situation.
”After calming them down, we need to help Longinus immediately. Even though Sacred Mountain cannot support him right now, the large quantity of Sacred Water can still forcefully enhance the Sacred Spear and repel the Evil Demons.”
However, when the two Sacred Weapon holders walked out of the main hall, the scene they saw left them so angry that their eyeballs were going to fall out.
Many of the defending Demon Hunters were lying in pools of blood, an Evil Demon, whose body was burning with jade-green flames was smiling at them. ”two holders, it's been a long time!”
”You are… 'degenerated' Chris?”
Mong and Aragón made eye contact with each other and was able to see the shock in each other's eyes. ”You actually succeeded in becoming an Evil Demon?”
”Chris used to be my name. Now, I'm Urias!”
The jade-green flame Evil Demon's nostrils were filled with hatred. ”I came from hell. Are all of you ready to withstand my fire?”
”Chris, don't go overboard!”
Mond bellowed, ”It was for your own good when we came to an agreement to give the witch a death sentence!”
”She has her own name—Selina! She also wasn't an evil Master! But all of you burned her alive!”
The flames on Urias's body rose vigorously. ”It was from that day onwards that I saw through your everything. The so-called Demon Hunter Headquarters had already degenerated long ago. Back then, I swore that even if I became an Evil Demon and fell into hell, I would still take revenge!
”Now… I'm back!”
Urias moved a step forward, the jade-green flames expanded and, in the end, surrounded the whole main hall.
”It doesn't matter if you're Chris or Urias, just from being a mere Evil Demon, you want to topple the entire headquarters?”
Mond and Aragón glanced at each other, their body burst with strong sacred light.
Even if Sacred Coffin and Sacred Cup weren't combat-oriented Sacred Weapons, they were still elite Titled Demon Hunters. Even when Seres appeared, he would have to bow down to their superiority.
”Headquarters? This hell-like place is the Demon Hunters Headquarters? Funny!”
Urias moved its jade-green flaming wing. ”Now… this is my home ground!”
”Even so, you're too careless.”
Aragón shook his head.
Kaboom!
In that exact moment, he passed through Urias's body. His hands were holding onto a beating heart that was sputtering magma.
”Just a mere Evil Demon and you dare to stand in front of Sacred Weapon holders… Hmm?”
Aragón crushed the heart in his hands, but he was surprised to find many jade-green sparks.
”I forgot to tell you two… my real name in the Evil Demon language means the spirit of fire!”
Urias smiled before he recovered his combat stance. ”With the entire Sacred Mountain and the support of Kotori City… how much effort and at what cost do you think would it would take to kill me?”
”You purposely came to delay us—No, Longinus!”
Mond's expression changed, and he wanted to immediately get away.
”Haha… It's too late now that you've only just realized it now!” Urias burst out laughing, the jade-green flames trapped them like a prison.
”Sir?”
At this moment, the Demon Hunters reinforcement arrived late.
”You don't have to worry about us, go and help Longinus immediately. Sacred Spear… cannot be harmed!” Aragón shouted loudly.
At the same moment.
At the foot of the mountain, a familiar vibration could be felt.
What was surprising was that Urias shook with laughter after feeling it, while Aragón and Mond became as pale as ash.
…
Inside Kotori City.
The war between Demon Hunters and the Night Family Clans finally concluded.
After losing the support from Sacred Mountain, and with the breakdown of their minds, the Demon Hunters were defeated. Titled Demon Hunters died, one by one, as they were ripped apart by the sharp claws of the Evil Demons.
Even Longinus was exhausted with the continuous usage of Sacred Spear to kill seven Evil Demons.
”Righteousness!”
His gaze was still burning with flames, the entire Sacred Spear emitted a strong light, and he viciously stabbed into the Darkness Evil Demon—Ainz's chest.
Poof!
