Chapter 75 - 75 : Sea Of Flames (2/2)
She didn't react and continued busying herself with Arthur, although she heard him, she totally ignored him.
Mad Dog cringed for a bit and didn't know what to do, he was not used to this kind of cold attitude toward him, who was he? He was the Mad Dog! He takes what he wants, so what if she's powerful? He will subdue her!
He first tried to be respectful and sneakily attack, but it didn't seem it's going to work.
”Hmpf! Don't say I didn't give you a choice! Attack! Demolish this dogshit barrier! NOW!”
As he said that, he used [Berserker mode] increasing his stats and took the red big two-handed axe from his back and struck the barrier, the nearby army also focused on the attacking.
Thousands of attacks landed on the barrier, the army was huge, a lot of it advanced to demolish the clan, but half of it attacked the barrier, basically, the long-ranged attackers and mages stayed behind to help Mad Dog and attacked from far behind, and the close fighters advanced to finish Jackob's clan.
10 minutes passed yet the barrier didn't budge, didn't crack or shatter, didn't even seem like it weakened, and that's to be expected, isn't it?
It was made by Arthur, it's a superior dark magic barrier, only a Heavenly Realm would be able to break it, anyone under that Realm can only dream about doing that, so what if there is dozen of thousands attacking? Their attacks were beyond weak, for Lucy and Arthur that is.
Jackob has already held his mother carefully and retreated close to Lucy, his face was pale and he was shaking a bit, he was hoping again and again for this barrier to not shatter.
20 minutes passed, and something finally happened, well, not to the barrier, of course, it's just that... Arthur's nap was over, with somewhat sleepy eyes, he sat up and gazed around him leisurely.
”Ah ah, stats everywhere... am I still dreaming?”
Jackob was confused, as for Lucy, she just giggled and softly nodded at him.
She then looked at Mad Dog, who was still attacking and using fire-based skills to demolish the barrier, his hatred intensified every second, he swore to never end until he broke this barrier.
”Fucking bastard! Wait until I break this barrier, I'll fucking play with you until you die!”
Mad Dog cursed again and again, but he never got a response, for 20 minutes, he was ignored as if he never existed, him and his army, however, when Arthur finally got up, Lucy cold gaze landed on the thousands of beastmen along with Mad Dog, she only said one word before hell surfaced on this bloody battlefield.
”....Annoying..”
After that, there was a sea of purple flames, as far as the naked eye can see, it was terrifying yet a spectacular view, raging sea of flames burned the beastmen army, it's like they were in hell.
They felt intense and agonizing pain, yet they did not die, it was worse than dying, some even committed suicide and other loudly screamed.
Lucy's control of her flame was flawless at this stage, Arthur's ancient flames may be stronger, yet his control is a bit weaker than hers, she used flames since she was young, so how could her control of it be lacking?
The flames killed thousands easily, the most dumbfounding thing is that their skin didn't burn, no no no! they just cried endlessly until they just.. died, what actually happened is that they experienced pain, but not from the outside, but from the inside.
Arthur couldn't possess half a body or a burned body, but the strange thing is that he can even an empty shell, even if all organs, heart and brain was gone, he can still possess, but if the exterior was fully burned or missing a head or half the body, he can't.
He made a lot of experiences when he was in the clan and made a lot of conclusion and results which helped him learn more about his 'possessing', so that's why she killed them by burning their insides.
Hell's door opened and the huge army was burned to the ground, the sea of flames prolonged enough to burn the whole army, yes! You heard right! The whole damn army!
With almost 20 million points in intelligence, what's a sea of flaming which had a radius of dozen of kilometers? Maybe some of Jackob's clan army was burned too, but why would Lucy care? Unlike Arthur, she may be kind sometimes, but there were times when she has to be cold too, her attitude may have changed, but she was not kind enough to spare what seemed like 'kind people'.
..
Jackob almost fell unconscious from the shock, he stared and remained speechless, now he felt fear not from the army, but from Lucy.
'Fuck fuck fuck fuck!!!!! Why am I the one to meet them?'
In a way he was fortunate and unfortunate, they saved him, it's a good thing, but seeing their power right now, he felt like he did the wrong choice when he brought them here.
As for Arthur, he didn't express sympathy or pity for the dead, he just licked his lips and hugged Lucy while saying
”Ah, such a good gift from my wife when I just have woken up, I cannot be happier, ha ha ha!”
But Jackob didn't think like that, he gritted his teeth and fearfully gazed at Arthur and Lucy 'I met lunatics, definitely lunatic people, I'm doomed, they seemed kind earlier, but she just slaughtered thousands and didn't even flinch!'
He used to fear Arthur more but now? Pfft! Lucy was like a true death reaper, one must not be allured by her Beauty, she's the devil himself!
But oh well, she was a demon, so a demon or a devil, it's similar right?
”This should be 50,000... no no 100,000? Should be that amount, HAHAHA, I cannot wait, however, it'll take time to get them all..”
With that thought in mind, Arthur waved his mind, and right away, a bottomless pit appeared, and 2 dark knights and countless skeletons appeared, Arthur just gave them one order, 'Be good delivery boys and gather those corpses for me'
The skeletons obviously followed his orders, with the dark knights leading them, it would also be much easier, although it cost a bit of mental power, it's no problem, it'll recover in no time.
After he did that, Arthur turned to look at the dumbstruck Jackob while still tightly hugging Lucy from behind and said
”Well, it's about time to visit you clan master, I need to ask him something, then we'll be gone from your life, promise! 'kay?”
He showed an honest smile toward Jackob, for the latter, it rather seemed like a demon god's evil smirk!
'Be gone my ass! You told me that earlier and you're still here!'
Although he thought that, Jackob could only nod in reality and silently guide Arthur, however, he was still reluctant, but he before he could speak, Arthur spoke again.
”Ah, about your mother, don't worry, I'll let someone protect her, plus, who would hurt her when everyone is dead? Right?”
A couple of heavily armed skeleton warriors were enough to protect the mother, in an empty battlefield which contained countless dead bodies, who could hurt a sick woman laying who is unable to move?
