[Huaah. Uoooooh!]
When Chi Paul absorbed Arema Steelworker's body, the change was incredibly dramatic. He screamed, as though he were a Saiyan witnessing his friend's death and turning Super Saiyan, and resulted in a dramatically changed Chi Paul!
[Kuguoooooh!]
[Kihi. Kihiiiiit! Power. This power...! Is for taking my revenge!]
[Aah. It's delicious. So delicious! The bodies of those traitors. They taste sweet. So sweet!]
Beside him, the other Chi Pauls had absorbed the remaining Four Heavenly Commanders' original bodies, or the other golems' knight bodies. Each and every one of the Chi Pauls were transforming into a frightening and strange new appearance.
They'd hidden the fact that they were Chimeras so well until now, but they suddenly had transformed into such a fearsome state, as if they were cats gnawing at and spitting out a gra.s.shopper.
[It's... It's not over yet. We need more to complete our evolution...!]
”Right. What you need is over there.”
Their master, Lee s.h.i.+n Woo, knew exactly what they needed to complete their evolution! They required Arema Steelworker, who had forgotten all about his battle with Dana and rushed over, along with the rest of the Four Heavenly Commanders, and the golems.
[How dare you... How dare you give my body to those lowly beasts!]
[I can't forgive you. I can't permit this...! I'll rip you to pieces!]
Yeah. Just eating their bodies wouldn't complete their revenge. Only by eating their golem bodies, which held their very souls, could they take one step further as Avengers!
[Lord Paul Zero! At this very moment, we are so glad that we pledged our loyalty to you...! We will prove our loyalty to you now!]
[Kuoooooooh!]
[Revenge! It's time for our long-awaited revenge!]
[Unleash your rage onto the arrogant and narrow-minded surface dwellers!]
[We'll crush you, exactly like what you did to us!]
All the Chimeras had overcome their limits and were emitting their increased mana; they then faced the golems and rushed towards them. Although Chi Paul should've been a level 7 still, the pressure he emitted was no less than a level 8's. No, the main Chi Paul wasn't the only one; the other Chi Pauls were the same!
Lee s.h.i.+n Woo soon realized that his Chi Pauls were under the effect of his Rebellion skill. It was quite advantageous to him.
”Help them, Dana. With their help, you should be able to take down those golems with ease, as they're tired from battle after battle.”
”It's quite persuasive hearing it from the very man that exhausted the golems to that extent.”
”They're the knights that were sacrificed in the surface dwellers' plan...! Of course I'll help. The surface dwellers must pay for their sins!”
Fortunately, Dana wasn't swayed by their hideous appearance and had immediately figured out the truth. The more he talked with her, the less he could stand Seira Von Retandane...!
Lee s.h.i.+n Woo was moved and wiped the resulting tears. He then left the battle to her and turned around. He wanted to watch the Chimeras take their revenge, but as he'd said several times, he didn't have the time to do so!
”s.h.i.+n Woo. This is really killing me...!”
”Don't worry. Arema's attack caused my head to spin, giving me an idea.”
”Are you planning on changes its vector?”
”Yeah.”
It seemed like Kratia had the same idea. Lee s.h.i.+n Woo nodded his head and placed his hand onto the cannon once more.
It felt as though the ma.s.sive acc.u.mulated energy would blow at any time, and the ice element mana holding it would melt away. As he thought, stopping it now would be impossible.
”But changing its direction might be possible. Since it's a cannon.”
”I was thinking about that too.”
Kratia hadn't only been focusing on keeping the ma.s.sive energy in check. She had been trying to push the energy into a different direction, in order to reduce the damage it inflicted.
However, doing so wasn't so simple. It was difficult enough that Dana, who had been controlling the cannon before, had failed, so how hard must it have been for her!? But Lee s.h.i.+n Woo hadn't suggested it without having anything in mind.
”Tda! So here's where this guy comes in.”
It was the bone bracelet that he'd equipped to his wrist. It was the artifact that the Archmage had left behind, the Proof of Death.
It would also serve as proof that Lee s.h.i.+n Woo could beat the Archmage, as it had absorbed a portion of the Archmage's soul, but aside from that, the artifact itself was quite impressive...
[Proof of Death (+4)]
[Lv8]
[Durability: 1,327/2,500]
[Element: Darkness Lv8]
[Options: Magic +500; The creator can a.s.sume absolute control over similar artifacts and the effectiveness of every artifact in their control is increased.]
[Special active skill: Rush of Death - This artifact messes with the energy of any artifact that it resonates with. It will cause a huge explosion that deals three times the corresponding artifact's maximum mana.]
”This is completely...”
”Yep. It's what allowed him to control Dana. I'm telling you, that Lich is really thorough!”
”If you had... something like this... then use it earlier!”
Kratia was p.i.s.sed and kept hitting Lee s.h.i.+n Woo's chest. She wasn't being charming; she was really trying to hurt him, but her anger made sense, considering how much she'd been doing up to now.
But Lee s.h.i.+n Woo felt like it was unfair. Right after he beat the Lich, Seira's heart had been pierced by her older brother. He'd managed to save her life by turning her into a Banshee, but then he had to fight against Seagald. And now, the cannon was about to blow. He'd revived the princess to help deal with it, but then Arema had decided to attack him one last time! Lee s.h.i.+n Woo didn't even have any time to look over his loot!
