Chapter 487 - 436 : An Eye for an Eye 2 (1/2)

Both were parties were ready to fight, one was protected by a gigantic barrier that enveloped the whole area and the other was surrounded by four divine beasts and commanded by a Lich King.

The army of death finally finished its march toward the White Specter Clan and stopped a mile or so from the entrance. Almost all of the disciples of the clan were standing in an orderly fashion in front of the gates, fully equipped with powerful equipment.

Even so, some of them couldn't help but feel anxious and a bit afraid after witnessing the enemy's prowess with their own eyes. There was just no end to the undead, they stretched from North to South and every single one of them looked domineering. The revived Holy Knights were also standing at the very front, their shields and swords now corrupted but still effective.

Every Overgod that was revived will provide assistance to Arthur as the enemy will mainly focus on him. Aborak is to lead the army and slowly demolish this place, turning it upside down.

Amidst this intense and nerve-wracking silence, a chilling breeze passed through the two parties, alarming the specters, who clutched their weapons and mustered their courage. They're here to defend their home and Katrina made it really clear that not all of them will remain alive by the end of this sudden war.

Arthur appeared in front of the army and gazed at the floating figure of the Matriarch, who was glaring at him with eyes filled with contempt and killing intent.

She loathed the parasites and despite having a human soul, she still considered him an abomination, an atrocity that shouldn't exist amongst the living. His very act of leading such a large army of dead goes against the unwritten rules of the multiverse as the very existence of this many undead can automatically kill millions of mortals.

”What? Are you so unhappy to see your 'son-in-law'?”

Arthur crossed his arms and taunted her while smirking, unaffected by the aura of the Exalted God or her piercing glare. In response, Katrina snorted and said

”I have no relation with no monstrosity like you.”

”I believe your daughter will say otherwise.”-Arthur

”You should have pretended to be dead and continued on with your life without causing this much trouble and destruction.”

Hearing this, Arthur shrugged his shoulders and replied

”Initially, I didn't want to implicate myself with you but it's you guys who persistently chased after us. You can only blame yourself for what's about to happen.”

Just as he finished talking, a burst of energy smashed into him with the intent of killing him with one blow. Unfortunately, Arthur turned into a strange-looking dark cloud, which swiftly returned to its owner.

Arthur wasn't foolish enough to defenselessly appear before the leader of the enemy. Knowing her aggressive character, it's wasn't difficult to predict her actions. She'll want to get rid of Arthur as soon as possible so a sneak attack like this is to be expected.

When her attack failed, a loud laugh reverberated from afar:

”Hahahaha you had one chance to kill me before and you failed so don't expect to succeed this time.”

Arthur, who already unsheathed Makaze, declared that then glanced at Aborak, who nodded his skeletal head.

The Lich King banged his cane then emitted an ear-deafening screech, signaling the undead to start their assault. The flying bone dragons started diving toward the white specters while the countless skeletons raised their weapons and madly ran at the thousands of disciples standing at the front.

Before the two parties could clash, Katrina waved her hand and pulverized the running undead and the flying bone dragons, causing them to turn into nothingness.

However, it wasn't nearly enough to stop the incoming force. Moreover, the undead felt no fear so they weren't fazed by Katrina's demonstration of power.

The Matriarch knew that it was useless to try and stop the whole army herself, there were just too many of them to defend all sides.

Dozens of seconds later, the undead finally clashed with the disciples, who were much stronger, individually.

The experts of the White Specter Clan remained on standby, waiting for the Divine Beasts or Arthur to make move.

The only people who were reckless and rushed toward Arthur were the sea people originating from the Sea Citadel. They resembled fish but had a humanoid body covered in blue scales.

Arthur was about to send Radolf and Midolf to deal with the weird-looking fish but Aborak stopped him and said

”I'll handle them, take care of the Senior Elders, they're more dangerous.”

Arthur nodded his head and vanished from the fish men's sight and dived into the army of undead, possessing one of them and diving underground, quickly escaping the enemies' senses.

Before they could turn around and make chase, Aborak already made his move. The enormous elemental wheel which was imprinted under the undead's feet started acting, the black arrow started spinning and stopped on the flaming red color.
