Chapter 143: The One-Eyed Ominous Mino Taur (1/2)

A reptilian head!

It was the transformed head of one of their friends.

”Roy!”

Shouted the other person with a similar transformed form. But it was too late. The person named Roy already turned into light particles when his body lost the head.

Everyone who was watching right now outside the painting subconsciously gulped in disbelief.

”Backoff Rey!!” Shouted Jura after noticing the other person was still standing in the middle on the red carpet in the distance between them and the figure sitting on the golden chair.

However, the person named Rey was still shocked at what happened to the other person.

Before he could regain his bearings, his head was already detached from his body.

With wide eyes, Jura and Nicholas who was still standing near the door went into a battle-ready stance.

In the palace, a silent chuckle was heard.

”Fufufu, greed blinded a man, while hatred clouded one's rational thinking…”

Whispered the empress.

Ella glanced at the person beside her. The empress smiled when she felt her eyes on her.

”Just, common faults for newbies,” Said the empress while stroking Ella's hair like caressing a baby.

After a slight nod, they returned their eyes to the monitor in front. Ella already lost half of her interest towards the competition after that person fell.

Jura and Nicholas were staring in full awareness at the supposed statue of a Demon Lord.

He only lifted his huge finger and it already killed two of his friends.

Then they noticed its eye twitched a little. A second later, it deliberately opened in slow motion.

A hollow eye with a gleaming purple pupil is what they saw. While the left-side eye was still in a closed-state.

A second after his eyes were fully opened, an ominous aura attacked Jura and Nicholas that caused them to daze for a couple of seconds.

Jura as the son of the valiant Beleggor Gorthalion knew that they were in a dire situation. He couldn't lose his focus.

He started chanting a spell and after a couple of seconds, his whole body let out a golden brilliance surrounding him. It was a middle-tier resistance for control-type intent.

”Fufufu, he truly is the son of valiant General Beleggor Gorthalion…” the empress once again commented after witnessing Jura's quick-thinking for a solution in their situation.

Seeing what Jura did, Nicholas also followed his lead. Then golden brilliance enveloped his whole body also.

A second after the ominous aura was released, all the lights inside the room died down. The illumination coming from the orange brilliance of the barrier located at the back of the golden chair was the only light that gives the room slight visibility.

Not only that,

(Dun dun dun…)

The whole room started to tremble when the figure of the Demon Lord used his hands to push his body to stand.

Although the room was fairly huge in space, it still managed to shake the room with just him about to stand.

”Such overbearing aura!” Nicholas cited.

”Tsk!” Jura clicked his tongue.

”Jura Gorthalion, what we gonna do?” Anxiously asked Nicholas.

”For now, just stay alert!” Jura reminded him. But it only made Nicholas knit his brows.
