138 Neo-Demon against Angelic Paragon (1/2)

The runes in those armors are known as Fiendfire and its original effect was simple yet very powerful. It allows the carrier to use a very dangerous and powerful type of energy known as fiend fire which was a type of flame that was able to penetrate with ease magic defenses and whose heat was superior to most of the magic flames that exist.

The use of fiend fire has several downsides since it overuse can cause irreparable damage to the life force of an individual and it could corrode their consciousness twisting their personalities.

Zatiel was able to alter the rune, changing its effect, making them consume the life force and energy on the carrier completely before exploding into a ball of fire with the capacity of harming the consciousness of those who touch it.

And the most important quality of the rune was that if an explosion of fiend fire happened next to another one, they could combine themselves, increasing their destructive power beyond the mere sum of their individual damage.

The white warriors were the drones that Tao had created. In the beginning, they were designed to be used as cannon fodder during battles, but their power was so mediocre that Zatiel had chosen to change their purpose, and with the rune absorbing all of their life force and energy, each one of them was able to create an explosion of fiend fire with equal power to a weak Rank 2 Spell.

Zatiel has changed a lot, and although he was still incredibly cold to his enemies, he was not able to send his Neo-Demos nor even those Sunlight Champions into this type of suicide task, but with drones that were not different than an undead army, with no true life or soul in them, he had no problem killing them all.

By combining those three hundred explosions, the result was a dome of black fire that covered a diameter of thirty kilometers and whose power was reaching the Pseudo Rank 4 level.

Not all the flames were contained inside the center of the explosion, as whips and small fireball were launched in all directions, filling the entire city with black flames.

From the upper part of the dome of fire, a figure came out flying. He was a man with green eyes and red hair, his body was four meters tall with six wings made of blood on his back and a muscular constitution.

Surrounding this man was a very thick red aura filled with all sort of rune inscriptions. Although the aura was now all cracked and seems to be about to break, its abilities were impressive since even though the man was at the epicenter of the explosion, his body had no damage at all.

Of course, that did not mean he was not hurt as you could see blood leaking from his eyes, mouth, and ears. This happened due to him having his consciousness grabbing all those drones at the moment of the explosion which resulted in it being severely damaged.

The man was an Advanced Rank 3 Angelic Paragon, and his bloodline seems to be focused on increasing his body capabilities, which surely gives him outstanding regeneration abilities, but a damaged consciousness was something very serious since it restricted the amount of power he could release with his spells and also hinders his perception

But things were not over yet since at the moment he came out of the flames an immense sense of danger assaulted him, but due to his damaged consciousness, he was only able to detect the eleven beams of chaotic energy when they were about to land on his body.

As an experimented warrior, he was able to respond to the threat immediately, making all the power on the red aura focus in the front of him and covering himself with his blood wings.

The rune that created that red aura must have been of great quality as it was able to resist most of the power of those eleven Abyssal Blast, even after been damaged.

But just as the man believed he had overcome the danger, another eleven beams of chaotic energy, that had been fired right after the first ones, landed straight on his body.

The Angelic Paragon body was truly impressive since even after receiving those eleven Abyssal Blast directly, he only ends up with his left arm destroyed, some of his wings broken and wounds all over his body.

The explosion throws him back for meters, but he was able to gain control over his body before entering the dome of black flames again.

Unfortunately for him, his enemies seem to be determined on throwing him into that inferno, since as he was fighting the chaotic voice that threatens to rip away his sanity, the massive armored head of an Undying Leviathan, surrounded by a domain of dark golden fire, crash against him, submerging him, the creature and the man, riding the creature, whose body was covered in a golden fire of life and a dark fire of death inside the dome.

The moment the figure of Zatiel disappeared inside the dome of black flames, a voice was heard in the mind of Ezequiel, Sophia, Kilo, and Rax.
