Chapter 767 - Final Battle 1 (2/2)
‘Master said to hit the lighthouse. Then, the Life Vessel of the Lich is in the lighthouse…!’
Tat! Tat! Tat!
Scarlet hurriedly jumped onto a nearby stone pillar and picked up the arrow.
She took the arrow which was made by a dwarf elder, in which the arrowhead was made of steel, and also had little magic and Gigantium on it.
If she could put aura onto it, the power the arrow would release would be tremendous, so it had to be used against Sword Masters.
In the current situation, she was more than able to destroy the lighthouse with just one arrow.
Convinced, Scarlet began to push aura onto the arrow.
Wooong!
A bright, blinding light began to form at the end of the arrowhead.
The Aether, which Erenes had shown to her was awakening, even after Luke had called it to be dangerous.
“Sh-she is…!”
Arsene was shocked when he saw Scarlet aiming for the lighthouse.
The Life Vessel was still inside the lighthouse.
He couldn’t just let the red-haired woman shoot her arrow.
“Black Spear!”
“Danger!”
Seeing the Black Spear used, Hwang Bo-sung hurriedly jumped for Scarlet.
As Hwang Bo-sung went close to her, Scarlet had fired the Aether arrow towards the lighthouse.
Swoosh!
The arrow, which was shining flew towards the lighthouse leaving behind a white trajectory in the air.
Thanks to Hwang Bo-sung’s quick move, Scarlet managed to avoid getting hit by the Black Spear but was angry at missing the target.
‘Damn it, I missed!’
As she was pushed by Hwang Bo-sung, the direction of the arrow shifted.
Kwang!
The arrow broke through the roof of the lighthouse.
While she was feeling irritated and regretting using it, Arsene began to scream.
“Kuakkkkk!”
The fragments produced by the arrow had broken in through the roof and struck the Life Vessel, which was stored inside the lighthouse.
Although the Life Vessel wasn’t broken, it was still a considerable damage, and Arsene’s soul was damaged.
Arsene was hurt and was feeling a pain he didn’t till a few years back.
“This, no…!”
Bargosa looked over at Arsene who was on the ground groaning in pain.
He looked over at the subspace.
If Arsene’s condition was too serious to move, then the summoning would get halted.
But fortunately, the subspace was safe.
No, it vibrated a lot more intensely and began to release Magi in huge quantities.
“Ughhhh! It is dangerous!”
“Get back! Step back!”
The Magi was poison, and unless one was a warlock, one could die from being exposed to a certain amount of Magi.
When the troops who were shocked stepped back, a huge hand popped out of the subspace.
The rocks around the subspace began to melt down, and a hand kept reaching out of the subspace.
Shocked, Luke rushed straight in and struck his giant sword. He tried to take down the demon before it crossed the subspace.
Kwang!
A huge wave pushed everyone a few feet back.
But the demon’s hand which got hit by the sword didn’t seem to take any damage. Despite the fact that Gold aura was used to maximum, there was a small cut on the hand.
‘This can’t be…!’
“Kukuk! A great welcome!”
The demon passed through the subspace and spoke with a low voice.
His massive muscular body could be compared to a Hero class Gigant. He has four pairs of horns and began to lit-up his eyes.
“Hiiik!”
“Kuak! Keeek!”
The soldiers who met eyes with the demon died immediately while screaming.
Despite being far from the demon, most soldiers couldn’t handle the Magi the demon was releasing.
Among the knights, there were many who died of a heart attack or even passed out.
Even Sword Masters like Philip and Rogers trembled to stand, and Belfair the demon, threw its head to the ground.
Gregory, Hwang Bo-sung, and Karen were the only ones who could stand.
However, their faces were stiff and pale because of the fear which was creeping into their hearts, fear of being consumed by something stronger than them.
‘Oh my god! I did expect it but…’
Luke was also stiff to move.
However, the skills he had accumulated as a Rune Knight and his sense of mission to protect his people made his body move.
“Disappear!”
In his Avenger, he used the second half of the Gold Sword, Cyclone Rage.
The storm-like sword attack which had turned twice as powerful went towards the demon faster than light.
Kang!
‘No!’
The giant sword broke with a sound.
While was dumbfounded at what he saw, the demon who almost got hit smiled.
“It tickles.”
The demon with a smile on its face struck both his fists.
Kwang!
Just rubbing his fists were strong enough to send shockwaves all over the island.
When the demon stepped ahead, the whole ground shook.
The Avenger which was on the ground rolled back because of the shake on the ground.
“Dad!”
Screaming, Karen rushed towards Luke.
Arch Duke Gregory tried to follow her, but his legs wouldn’t move.
As he watched the demon move, the dizzier his body and mind were turning.
‘That is no normal demon, he is definitely…!’
Demon King.
The highest-ranking demon in the Devildom.
The worst thing one could see, the thing only heard in legends and myths were right in front of their eyes.
