Chapter 228: The finale(a) (1/2)

'They are too sharp. I will lose my entire avatar if I try to block these needles head-on.

The needles with darkness surging around them were sharp enough to cut the fabric of reality itself, cutting the space as if it was a sheet of white paper, so Elliot didn't need to think twice to believe that even his avatar would get chopped up into pieces.

'But I can't dodge it either!'

Lucy, Grace, and the other were behind him. If he moved out of the way of the ten thousand needles, then they would die for sure.

'Hmm.'

'Let's think of something else.'

He didn't want to lose them, not even a single one of them! Although most of them weren't close to him, they had still fought together for several hours and were brother in arms. He had already cultivated good feelings for them, and it's not like he can't deal with the needles by using overwhelming powers!

”Don't sacrifice yourself for us!”

”Escape by yourself if it's necessary.”

”Don't die. Only then can you take revenge for us later!”

Although the eyes of said people and beasts had already widened in fear as they were stunned at the power of the serpentine devil that threatened to slay them and scared because they didn't know whether Elliot would sacrifice them to save his hide or protect them with his flesh and blood, they still wanted him to choose the best option for himself.

”Don't worry; I won't be giving up on anyone today.” The brightness in Elliot's eyes intensified, and ten thousand rays of golden lights shot out of his eyes. Each of them crashed on the tip of the needless, changing their trajectory to the eastern and southern skies.

A smirk unconditionally appeared on Elliot's face, irking his opponent.

”Hmph! It's far from over.”

Of course, if even this move was so easy to be dealt with by others, the serpentine devil indeed didn't serve to be one of the demonic generals!

”Innate racial skill: Puppeteer's circus!”

Along with demonic chants that chimed in the sky, tens of thousands of thin crimson strings extended out of the fingertips of the titan and attached themselves to all the reasons. Then, it waves its hands, redirecting their trajectory, causing them to shoot towards Elliot's avatar from all directions.

”Haha, the needles are coming towards you from everywhere! There's no escape, you fool! If you hadn't tried to help others, you wouldn't have fallen for my trap! But now it's already too late. You're going to die, this time for sure.”

It was a wonder how it could shoot out so many words in such an intense battle.
