1500 Getting a Share Part 1 (1/2)
Nailisi saw just how fast the angel that had been off in the distance was charging at her. It was so fast that it seemed almost to be able to match her speed in her imp form. It must have been a powerful angel, indeed. Level 13, perhaps?
The power of the angel would have probably been on par with hers in the divine kingdom.
Nailisi took out dozens of scrolls after determining the nature of the enemy, throwing them into the air. The angels that had ganged up on her were unable to stop her in time. They were not able to do anything when one large scale magic scroll after another was cast in the camps.
Nailisi then unleashed the elemental creatures on her elemental badge in secret, letting the tall Elemental Stone Statue Soldiers carelessly trash the place.
Every single one of them had a substantial magic cannon installed on their chests.
Due to replenishment from the Stone Statue Soldiers, those cannons were capable of comparatively quicker attacks. Their frequency of attack surpassed the cannons on the Floating City.
The angels coming from afar roared in anger. They all wore white armor and were taller than 20 meters, armed with Swords of Glory and with two pairs of wings on their backs.
”Stop, demon!” one of the angels shouted from afar.
”Alright!” Nailisi yielded without a care, but then quickly conjured demon magic between her horns. A grey halo expanded, shrouding within it the angels that had surrounded her.
Nailisi swiped them all with her Sword of Rules, resulting in hundreds of angels dropping out of the sky.
”Curse you!” the angel shouting at her was apparently incapable of foul language. But then again, foul language would not have worked on Nailisi at all.
”Come at me!” Nailisi's greatsword shone with golden light. Twenty-four shields hovered in the air at the same time, circling around her. The angel that had been charging toward her pointed with its Sword of Glory, shrouding Nailisi in holy light from above.
”Die!” the enraged angel shouted. Nailisi had already killed tens of thousands of angels. Despite them being only at the lowest of levels, it would have enraged their god nonetheless.
”Nonsense!” Nailisi laughed. The divine punishment from above simply rattled her 24 shields, making them shake violently. It was utterly incapable of breaking Nailisi's defense.
”I knew you god creatures would only fight using that clown's tricks. O' pathetic angel, let me send you to h*ll!” Nailisi said as she charged. The shields around her spun and made her silhouette appear blurry.
The Sword of Glory shook in the angel's hands, but that was out of anger over Nailisi's provocation rather than out of fear. Nailisi did not care about pointed verbal attacks, but angels cared very much about how others saw their god.
Nailisi had said that their god was but a clown, and that made the angel extremely angry.
The anger did not cause the angel to lose its fighting ability. It had instead evoked hidden abilities in its blood. That angel was a captain among the angels. Holy Prose spun for a bit in its eyes, and it split into three beings, surrounding Nailisi as she charged at it.
All three of the beings were of comparable strength. What the angel had performed was the Summoning of Light, which was capable of bringing forth two of the summoner's compatriots from any point in time and space.
A level 13 angel's skill was something that could have only been used by angels created personally by a god, and using said skill came at the cost of halving one's life.
Angels were not immortal. That level 13 captain knew that Nailisi was not someone it could have taken on using brute strength, so it used its hidden skill immediately, hoping to turn the tides of battle. At the very least, it was determined to stall that demon for some time, waiting for its god to deliver judgment himself.
Nailisi's laugh became even more maniacal. The angel captain's skill was indeed formidable. If Nailisi had really still been at level 13, the tables would have indeed turned.
Twenty-four Shackles of the Fallen shot out from behind Nailisi, binding one of the angels at her side. Her Sword of Rules clashed with the Sword of Glory held by the angel hundreds of times in an instant.
An angel to Nailisi's left fired divine spells from the Angelic Scepter held in her hand, which were all repelled by the shields around Nailisi. The 24 Shields of Rules had twisted the space around her, nullifying the angel's attacks.
Nailisi then kicked that angel. There was a piece of sharp, wedge-shaped metal attached to the front of her combat boots, which lodged into that angel's abdominal armor. Nailisi then stepped on it, breaking the three angels' circle around her.
Nailisi burst out of the barricade, and one of the captains behind her was pulled into the Purgatory of the Fallen by the chains.
The Shields of Rules around Nailisi returned to the sword. She then pointed at the two remaining angels and said, ”Come at me if you dare!”
The gate of the 12 Notes of First Purgatory flickered and appeared. Nailisi turned around and went into the collection of purgatories. The two remaining angels charged at her without hesitation.
Nailisi laughed. Power emanated from the Origin Stone of Darkness within the Purgatory of Darkness and pinned down the two angels of the Lord of Glory. Their armor disintegrated, and the feathers on their backs dropped off one after another.
The power from the stone overwhelmed the power of light completely.
”You despicable demon!” The bodies of both of the angels shrunk, reducing them to the size of normal humans. The armor on their bodies dissolved into translucent balls that barely allowed them to resist the corrosion from the power of darkness.
”O' high and mighty angels, I'm done playing games with you. When you're finally finished being dissolved, I'll come in and pick up whatever is left.” Nailisi laughed and left the Purgatory of Darkness, charging deep into the army of angels again.
The power of the Origin Stone of Darkness had expanded to an area of over 1200 kilometers in radius. The place was capable of overwhelming even an army of angels, let alone just two captains.
It was a pity that the Purgatory of Darkness was unable to devour armies right away. It would have saved Nailisi a lot of time and effort if it had been capable of such feats.
